Chapter 350: Chapter 192: Northern Barbarian Masters Gather! The Grotto Heaven War Begins

Chen Xuan’s expression was ice-cold; he had no intention of humoring the man.

’The malice in his heart is so thick it’s practically spilling out. Does he really think my Indestructible Fist Intent (Level 2) can’t sense it?’

’Fuck! This wasn’t my fault to begin with!’

’So what?’

’Am I supposed to thank you now? Thank you for *not* settling the score with me?’

’What a fucking joke!’

’Who do you think you’re pulling that venerable elder act on?’

’If you dare show me any malice, I’ll kill you all the same!’

"Old bastard, let’s go! A fight to the death! If you don’t, then you’re my grandson!"

Chen Xuan walked directly to an empty space to the side and said coldly, "Weren’t you going to avenge that Yu Chen Master of yours? No need to put on a grim face. Let’s start now. Get over here!"

Everyone was dumbfounded, their gazes snapping to Chen Xuan in unison.

’Seriously?’

’Is this kid that wild?’

’Sure, you’re ninth on the Celestial Rankings.’

’But Jiang Hetu is seventh!’

"Um, it’s a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding. There’s no need for this..."

Someone hurriedly stepped forward to mediate.

Even Jiang Hetu’s old face darkened. He said in a hoarse voice, "Alliance Leader Chu, isn’t your Martial Alliance being a bit too aggressive?"

"Aggressive my ass! Stop with the ’Alliance Leader Chu’ this and ’Alliance Leader Chu’ that. Alliance Leader Chu isn’t your damn father, so get your ass out here! Just you and me, a one-on-one duel. No one is allowed to interfere!"

Chen Xuan retorted instantly.

He despised people like this who pulled rank with their age.

’A great war is about to begin.’

Chen Xuan would never allow anyone who plotted against him to live.

Anyone from whom he sensed malice would be killed, no exceptions.

The crowd grew even more shocked.

Now they had absolutely no idea what to do.

One by one, they hurriedly turned their gazes to Chu Shanhe.

But Chu Shanhe’s expression was calm, showing no reaction.

’You old fool.’

’People were giving you an out, but you refused to take it?’

’You just had to complain.’

’Do you have any idea how ruthless Chen Xuan can be?’

’Fine. I’m staying out of it.’

He was perfectly clear on who his allies were.

’If Chen Xuan wants to kill you, then you deserve it.’

"Alliance Leader Chu, does the Martial Alliance truly insist on this?"

Jiang Hetu’s eyes turned cold as he spoke again, his voice low and hoarse.

"Still ’Alliance Leader Chu’? Alliance Leader my ass!"

Chen Xuan’s expression turned frigid. With no more hesitation, he took a step forward, his body flashing as if teleporting. His aura erupted with a thunderous roar as a scorching, terrifying power instantly enveloped the area. He slashed down with a palm strike.

All his buffs stacked almost instantly.

A dark, chilling glint appeared in Jiang Hetu’s eyes. He knew that with Chu Shanhe watching, he would not be spared. His only chance at survival was to take down Chen Xuan.

With this in mind, he shot forward, putting all his strength into an attack. He lunged to grab Chen Xuan, his five sharp fingers cutting through the air with a WHIRRING sound. His arm twisted dozens of times, seeming boneless, as his hand shot out to seize Chen Xuan.

He had absolute confidence in this move.

This was the Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Grappling Hand.

And he had put his full power behind it.

’It’s impossible for anything to go wrong.’

However!

BOOM!

CRACK!

In the first clash, a deafening explosion erupted between them. The ground shook violently, rumbling, and the shockwave made everyone stagger in alarm.

Then, they saw Jiang Hetu’s expression change drastically as he spat out a mouthful of blood. His Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Grappling Hand had indeed seized Chen Xuan’s vital points, but it was completely useless.

Because Chen Xuan hadn’t dodged or evaded at all; he had intentionally let himself be caught.

But the price he paid was a palm strike from Chen Xuan to his chest, which caved his entire torso inward. His sternum and ribs were completely shattered, and his internal organs nearly ruptured.

’How could Chen Xuan still move after I seized his vital points?’

Jiang Hetu was horrified.

His Heaven and Earth Yin-Yang Grappling Hand contained the dual forces of Yin and Yang, fused with the Laws of Heaven and Earth. Any Outer Saint Level expert, no matter who, would be instantly immobilized if caught by his grappling technique.

No matter what overwhelming techniques they possessed, they would find it impossible to break free.

Even Chu Shanhe back in the day wouldn’t have dared to take the hit head-on.

Yet Chen Xuan had taken the hit directly and was completely fine.

Everyone’s expression filled with shock as well.

Immediately after, they saw Chen Xuan’s body flash like lightning. Exuding a terrifying aura, he bore down on Jiang Hetu at extreme speed. His fists became a blur of dense afterimages as he relentlessly hammered punch after punch into Jiang Hetu’s body.

Endless crimson-gold flames and lightning surged forth.

Jiang Hetu was already severely injured from the first exchange and was now even less capable of defending himself. Although he desperately mobilized the True Essence in his body to counterattack, he was no match for the terrifying power of Chen Xuan’s stacked buffs. He quickly began to scream in agony as blows landed continuously on his chest and shoulders.

He was being beaten senseless in a completely one-sided assault.

One had to remember that Chen Xuan had only recently obtained and fused with the Primordial Barbaric Energy (Level 3).

His physical strength had multiplied several times over.

Combined with his stacked buffs, his power had once again undergone an earth-shattering transformation.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

AHHH! AHHH! AHHH!

The scene between them was one of a one-sided slaughter, filled with miserable screams and the endless spray of blood.

Everyone watched, utterly stunned.

Even Chu Shanhe was in utter disbelief.

"This kid..."

His heart pounded as he watched.

’I’ve still underestimated Chen Xuan.’

’What kind of monster is he?’

CRACK!

BANG!

With one final punch, Jiang Hetu’s body was sent flying backward, a bloody mess. He crashed into the distance, vomiting mouthfuls of blood. Both his arms were completely shattered, and his eyes were filled with pure terror.

It felt like a nightmare.

’I’m an Outer Saint Seventh Layer expert!’

’And I was nearly beaten to death by a newly-advanced Outer Saint?’

’How is this possible?’

"Alliance Leader Chu, save me! I came here to help! I’m innocent, I came to..."

Jiang Hetu screamed in terror.

WHAP!

Chen Xuan appeared in a flash, slapping a hand over Jiang Hetu’s face and silencing him. His fingers clamped down, and he lifted the man’s body straight off the ground.
