Chapter 290 - 177: The Jianghu Shaken!! The World in an Uproar!

Chapter 290: Chapter 177: The Jianghu Shaken!! The World in an Uproar!

Countless Spirit Doves flew swiftly from the Celestial Secret Pavilion.

Chen Xuan had only just returned to the Martial Alliance Headquarters.

When news of everything he had done in the Grotto Heaven was sent by the Celestial Secret Pavilion’s fastest Spirit Doves to every corner of the Great Xia.

The entire world was in an uproar.

No one could believe it.

Just moments ago, they were all discussing Chen Xuan breaking into the Inner Realm. After all, a twenty-year-old Inner Realm expert provided plenty of fodder for conversation.

Books like *The Affairs of Young Hero Chen and My Mother*, *The Story of Young Hero Chen and the Heroine Hei Jie*, and *Young Hero Chen and the Twelve Maidens of Jiang Province*... all sold out completely.

And now, not even a few days later, you’re telling them that Chen Xuan had made it onto the Earth List?! The Earth List??

Could anything be more ridiculous?

The Earth List only ranks fifty-four people.

They are the best of the best in the Inner Realm! The strongest of the strong! The Grandmasters among Grandmasters!

Even ordinary experts at the Ninth Layer of the Inner Realm couldn’t make it onto the Earth List.

Yet Chen Xuan somehow managed it?

"This is crazy, absolutely crazy..."

"Fiftieth on the Earth List, Iron-faced Yama, Chen Xuan..."

"He actually went on a killing spree in the Grotto Heaven, single-handedly annihilating Black Demon Mountain, killing eight of their Inner Realm experts, and then going to Grotto Heaven City to force dozens of Inner Realm experts to bow their heads..."

"Is he a god?!"

"!!!"

The crowd was horrified, unable to believe the news.

If this hadn’t been announced by the Celestial Secret Pavilion, they would have died before believing it.

But now the Celestial Secret Pavilion had spread the news throughout the land.

Which meant it had to be true!

This was even more shocking than *Young Hero Chen and the Twelve Maidens of Jiang Province*!

And who was the happiest about all this?

Without a doubt, it was the storytellers of the martial world, famous for their fabrications.

This was an endless source of material.

In the past, many had grown tired of hearing stories about the experts on the Human and Earth Lists.

After all, those were old tales everyone already knew.

But now, with news about Chen Xuan changing every three days, they had an inexhaustible supply of new topics, allowing them to make a fortune...

They were even the ones who had spread *The Affairs of Young Hero Chen and My Mother* and *The Story of Young Hero Chen and the Heroine Hei Jie*...

In short, the martial world was in an uproar.

This news was like a magnitude-10 earthquake shaking the world...

...

Name: Chen Xuan

Ranking: Fiftieth on the Earth List

Accomplishments: Began practicing Martial Arts less than a year ago, progressing by leaps and bounds. Attained enlightenment on Hidden Dragon Island and broke through to the Inner Realm. Subsequently entered the Grotto Heaven, where he shook Black Demon Mountain with his fists, annihilating its countless masters. He then proceeded to Grotto Heaven City, where he single-handedly intimidated all, forcing fourteen Inner Realm experts to bow their heads. ’Born Aristocrat’ Song Baoyi was suppressed in a single move, ’Tai Sui Blood’ Wu Yunxue admitted defeat, and ’Eight Desolations Purple Qi’ Yun Wuyue willingly submitted, while all other prodigies retreated before him.

Nicknames: Iron-faced Yama! Big-Dick Chen! Chen Shier!

Martial Arts: Unknown (Suspected Horizontal Training, unknown Fire Attribute Cultivation Technique)

Verdict: He bears a nameless fire; his fists open the Life and Death Gate. In half a year, he has shocked the world—a new sovereign on the Earth List.

...

Qinghe County.

The Twelve Alliances.

When Yunxing rushed to find Old Deng, Li Changsheng, with the latest news in hand.

Li Changsheng’s mind was also buzzing, leaving him completely stunned.

"Chen Xuan... made it onto the Earth List?"

"Yes, Old Deng! Senior Brother Chen is on the Earth List!"

Yunxing said, her voice filled with shock.

She had known for a long time that Senior Brother Chen was extraordinarily powerful. ’As long as I stick close to him, I’ll be fine.’

But she never imagined that Senior Brother Chen was *this* ridiculously strong.

A few days ago, he reached the Inner Realm.

A few days later, he’s on the Earth List?

’This is just too shocking.’

Although she had grown accustomed to being shocked by Chen Xuan, this time she was truly stunned. At the same time, she felt an even greater thrill of excitement.

’With Senior Brother Chen above me,’

’I can finally be a she-devil now.’

’Who in the entire Twelve Alliances wouldn’t call me their big sister?’

"Take your time reading, Old Deng. I’m off to hang out with my girls!"

Yunxing grinned, tossed the report down, and hurried away.

Outside, a few young women who were close with Yunxing had been waiting for some time.

"Sister Yunxing, are you still updating *Young Hero Chen and the Twelve Maidens of Jiang Province*? Let us borrow it to read..."

"Yeah, yeah, let us see the sequel..."

The women giggled sheepishly.

"Don’t worry, I’m always writing. There’s a copy for each of you!"

Yunxing puffed out her petite, high chest.

"By the way, Sister Yunxing, you said Senior Brother Chen is a foot long..."

one of the girls asked, both curious and shocked.

"Of course! I snuck a peek while he was bathing,"

Yunxing said proudly.

"Oh my god, is he even human?"

The fujoshi were stunned.

"A normal person definitely wouldn’t have that, but Senior Brother Chen does. That’s the difference between people!"

Yunxing said confidently.

The girls’ bodies swayed, and they collapsed to the ground on the spot, panting heavily, unable to move.

...

The Wang Clan of Canglan.

Patriarch Wang Zhengxuan’s expression changed, and he whipped his head around.

"What? What did you say? Chen Xuan? Made it onto the Earth List?"

"Yes, you heard me right!"

Behind him, Vice-Patriarch Wang Rufeng held the latest Earth List rankings. His eyes scanned the list as he spoke in a shocked tone, "This Chen Xuan isn’t just first on the Human List anymore, he’s also fiftieth on the Earth List. He’s the only person in history to be ranked on both the Human List and the Earth List at the same time!"

"Are you fucking kidding me?"

Wang Zhengxuan exclaimed in shock.

As the Patriarch of the Wang family, he had always been well-composed and never used profanity.

But now, he couldn’t stop a curse from flying out of his mouth.

’Has it even been ten days since Chen Xuan entered the Inner Realm?’

The Earth List wasn’t something you could get on just by reaching the Inner Realm.

Many people were at the Ninth Layer of the Inner Realm and still couldn’t make it onto the Earth List.

Those who could enter the Earth List were the most ruthless of the ruthless.
