Unparalleled After Ten Consecutive Draws

Chapter 98: Chu Kuangren Is Reliable, I Alone Can Slay The Demons

When Chu Kuangren struck a blow without uttering a single word, it shocked many of the sky-prides in the room.

Frightened, they could not do much but only stare at him.

“Chu Kuangren, how dare you hit me?” The sky-pride who was struck stood up, his face welling up in anger.

“If I hit you, so be it. Do you expect me to plan ahead for that?”

Chu Kuangren said calmly. What followed his words was another slap, which sent the person flying out of the restaurant this time.

The Mountain River Daoist and Host Lee witnessed the event in fear. After all, the victim was still a Daoist from a sage orthodoxy. How could Chu Kuangren react so rashly?

However, they had to admit that it was satisfying to see that person get what he deserved.

“Chu Kuangren, what’re you trying to do?!”

Gu Changge asked coldly.

“Nothing much. I’m just here to inform all of you that from today onwards, I’ll be in charge of managing the Mountain River City.”

“Under whose order?! Are you expecting us to comply just because you said so?”

“I’ve told you, I’m just here to inform all of you. I’m not seeking your approvals,” Chu Kuangren replied calmly.

“Hmph, Chu Kuangren, do you think just because you’re strong, you can do anything you want? Without us, how’re you going to manage the Mountain River City?”

Gu Changge sneered.

Then, the communication compass in Gu Changge’s Yin and Yang Ring suddenly vibrated.

Once Gu Changge retrieved it, a communication message was heard.

“All cultivators who were sent to Northern Lingdao, you’re ordered to listen to Chu Kuangren’s instructions!” It was the firm voice of the Royal Azure Dynasty’s Ruler.

Gu Changge immediately lost his usual composure. Though he was not the only one as the White Lotus Bachelor Sage, who was sitting beside him, had received a similar message too.

“As the Royal Princess’s fiance of the Royal Azure Dynasty, and the Bachelor of the School of White Lotus, I’ll also be in charge of the people you both brought along.”

Chu Kuangren took a quick look at the duo and left the scene.

“Chu Kuangren!”

Gu Changge ground his teeth as he stared furiously at Chu Kuangren’s silhouette.

Meanwhile, Host Lee took in all that had just unfolded before he made a wise choice to leave Gu Changge and chase after Chu Kuangren.

…

On the streets.

Host Lee had finally caught up with Chu Kuangren. “Brother Chu, I’m the head of the Lee Family in Mountain River City. If I may ask, I was wondering when will you send your people into battle?”

“The cultivators of Black Heaven Sect, School of White Lotus, and the Royal Azure Dynasty are already battling the demonic cultivators as we speak.”

“That’s quick!” Host Lee was elated.

Finally, a reliable sky-pride.

Host Lee had heard many stories about Chu Kuangren, so he knew that if Chu Kuangren was willing, he would definitely be of greater help than Gu Changge and his group.

“The Lee Family offers its service to you!”

Host Lee immediately pledged his loyalty to Chu Kuangren.

In this world, most cultivators essentially viewed commoners like them as disposable. However, there were a minority of cultivators who had risen to where they were from a commoner and hence viewed other commoners as equals.

The Lee Family was such a family of cultivators.

“Brother Chu, you’re kindhearted and so much more respectable than the so-called sky-prides who were partying away,” The Mountain River Daoist said as he caught up.

“I’m just doing my part.”

To Chu Kuangren, the life of a commoner was a life too!

Like commoners, cultivators were also humans!

Chu Kuangren had long decided that he did not want to be a cultivator who merely treated the lives of other commoners as insignificant. So naturally, he would not sit and do nothing about the demonic onslaught.

“When I arrived at Northern Lingdao, I caught wind that these demonic cultivators were looking for a Sage Ruler Weapon. Can you tell me more about it?”

Chu Kuangren suddenly recalled the topic and asked.

“Of course.”

The Mountain River Daoist and Host Lee then explained the countless details behind the legendary weapon. Hints of anger could especially be seen in the eyes of the Mountain River Daoist as he narrated the stories.

“It was said that the Sage Ruler Weapon, the Demonic Spear of Apocalypse, appeared in Northern Lingdao two thousand years ago ever since the demise of the Supreme Demonic Honorable but it was since sealed by the founding forefather of the Mountain River Sect!”

“And it’s also because of it that the Mountain River Sect has met its eventual demise!”

The Mountain River Daoist clenched his fist and said.

“Do you know where this spear is?”

“I don’t. As it was sealed by our founding forefather, no one else knows about the location apart from him and he has also long departed from this world.”

“In other words, no one in this world now knows where the spear is?”

“That’s correct.”

Chu Kuangren nodded as he heavily contemplated an issue.

…

On the second day, Chu Kuangren officially took over the Mountain River City. His first order was to have the Lee Family and other family sects to open up the city for other refugees to seek shelter in.

Within a short period of time, many refugee camps were set up within the Mountain River City.

This move had caused much dissatisfaction amongst the cultivators as they now had to put up with the sight of smelly, poorly-dressed refugees whenever they walked around the streets. Having been so spoiled and privileged for most of their lives, how could they put up with such a situation?

Boom!

A terrifying aura descended upon the porch near Chu Kuangren’s residence.

The sky-prides from Five Ways Sect, Zhiyang Valley, Taixu Temple, the Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom, and many others had come for Chu Kuangren.

“Chu Kuangren, show yourself!”

Fangtian from the Five Ways Sect yelled.

Upon the opening of the front door, a blast of white light, accompanied by a concentration of Daoist Rhymes, erupted from within before they could see anyone.

Alert, Fangtian immediately mobilized the Daoist Elements of the Five Ways and blasted streams of colorful spiritual energy towards the oncoming attack before the energies intersected. Subsequently, Fangtian was sent a few steps back and his face paled.

Lan Yu’s figure emerged from within the residence. She stared coldly at everyone and said, “You’re all making too much noise.”

“It’s so early in the morning and you’re already barking like a mad dog. Could you let us rest a little?” Chu Kuangren had also made his appearance at this point.

“Chu Kuangren, the refugees are practically flooding the entire city, how do you expect us to go about our activities? Explain yourself!”

Fangtian snorted coldly.

“Activities? Are you referring to your activities of hosting a huge banquet in restaurants, or is it satisfying your sexual lusts in brothels?” Chu Kuangren snarked as he looked at all the cultivators before him.

“Whatever it is, it’s too much of you to let so many refugees in. There’s a huge empty space outside the city, why don’t you let them live there?” Yuanhong suggested.

“Heh, outside? Looks like you’re all spoiled by all the privileges you have. Have you seen the situation outside? Demonic cultivators running amok rampantly and beasts roaming the streets freely. If we let these people out, how is it different than sending them to their deaths?” Chu Kuangren said coldly.

“So what? Only a few lives would’ve been lost. When the time comes, we’ll keep this demonic onslaught under control in no time.”

“That’s right, Chu Kuangren. You must get rid of these refugees today. Otherwise, we will not help you with this demonic onslaught!”

“Exactly. Do you think you alone can keep this entire thing under control?”

The group of sky-prides backed one another.

Listening to these words, Chu Kuangren only felt it preposterous.

Did these cultivators really come to slay demons?

“Even without all of you, I can slay the demons by myself!”

Chu Kuangren said firmly.

With a wave of his sleeves, a violent burst of sword Qi exploded, sending a group of cultivators flying several feet outside the compound.

“Now all of you, get lost!”

“Chu Kuangren, I can’t believe you actually see yourself as undefeatable! We must teach you a lesson today!” At that moment, some of the cultivators began to attack.

They had heard stories about Chu Kuangren before but had never witnessed his abilities themselves. They thought that now would be a good opportunity to test the water.

“Not good!”

“Don’t do it!” Yuanhong, Fangtian, and several other cultivators who had witnessed Chu Kuangren’s abilities attempted to stop the rest from acting rashly.

Although they had come to quarrel with Chu Kuangren, they had never planned on fighting him. After all, Chu Kuangren’s power was something that none of them could easily forget.

However, they were one step too late in preventing a disaster from happening.

The sky-prides were already dashing towards Chu Kuangren and as their Daoist Rhymes circulated, their spiritual energies erupted.

Yet, all Chu Kuangren had to do was lift his eyes and immediately, his attackers were suspended in midair with their techniques disabled.

Following that, several clouds of blood mists instantly exploded in the same spot!
