2656: Chapter 2676: Has He Always Been This Arrogant?
Lin Chen turned his head in surprise.
Who was this brazen, imdiately drawing hostility upon eting?
The man speaking was at least two ters tall, with a burly physique, wearing a roughly styled vest, exposing two thick and solid arms covered in tattoos.
The man looked incredibly robust and tall, like an iron tower.
There was also a tattoo between the man’s eyebrows, marking his identity as a mber of the Southern Wilderness Barbarian Tribe.
The barbarians were organized in a tribal system, and the tattoo between the eyebrows was the tribal totem.
The pattern on his forehead was of a soaring serpent, proving his allegiance to the Soaring Serpent Tribe.
Qi Gongji glanced at the man and said coldly, “Jin Daoyuan, your mouth is as foul as ever.”
Jin Daoyuan laughed out loud, his gaze sweeping over the disciples of the Illusory Serpent Sect following Qi Gongji.
Shaking his head with a look of pity, he said, “There were already few of you in the Illusory Serpent Sect, and yet you managed to scrape together a team.
If you all perish in the Battle of Bloodshed, wouldn’t your sect suffer a heavy loss, left with no successors?”
Qi Gongji replied calmly, “Killing people isn’t done with the mouth.
With such a loud voice, it seems you have improved your strength recently, and even your tone is bolder.
Why not take advantage of the fact that the Battle of Bloodshed hasn’t started yet and put our skills to the test?”
Jin Daoyuan laughed, “Just a joke.
Why so anxious?
Now is not the ti for us to fight.”
Jin Daoyuan’s eyes scanned the crowd, “I heard that after you, your sect has another who has comprehended the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art and beco your Saint Child.
He should be at the level of Daluo Ultimate Immortal, right?
Will he participate in this Battle of Bloodshed?”
Qi Gongji responded coldly, “He will participate.”
Jin Daoyuan guffawed, “That’s good to hear.
Many warriors in my tribe wish to witness the might of the Sand Dragon Illusory Divine Art.”
Qi Gongji scoffed, “They will witness it, but I hope they won’t regret it.”
Undeterred, Jin Daoyuan shrugged, “Warriors do not fear death, it’s all for the tribe!
It’s you who finally found an heir, yet you send him into the killing fields.
Aren’t you afraid he might fall there?”
Qi Gongji answered calmly, “The Immortal Path is against the heavens, and the struggle for slaughter never ceases.
If he dies within, it is his fate!”
Jin Daoyuan said with a laugh, “Well spoken, quite the spirit!”
Lin Chen, observing this exchange, felt the weakness of the Illusory Serpent Sect once again.
Nowadays, the Illusory Serpent Sect seed to rely entirely on Sect Master Qi Gongji to hold the fort.
To face external provocations, only Qi Gongji’s appearance could maintain their dignity.
Should Qi Gongji die one day, the Illusory Serpent Sect would likely face a crisis of succession and utterly fall to ruin.
Jin Daoyuan clearly had an old acquaintance, perhaps even so grudges with Qi Gongji, so upon seeing Qi Gongji arrive, he ca forward to mock him a few tis.
Qi Gongji no longer paid attention to Jin Daoyuan and led his people directly into the camp located on the northern side of the demon race territory.
Soon, a temporary camp was established.
As Lin Chen was about to go out for a stroll, he suddenly heard a wave of greetings erupting around him.
“Senior Brother Lü!”
“Senior Brother Lü, you’ve co.
I was afraid you wouldn’t make it in ti!”
“Greetings, Senior Brother Lü!”
Lin Chen turned his head and saw at the entrance of the camp, a tall youth with ordinary looks but an arrogant complexion striding in.
He nodded faintly in response to the greetings from the many disciples, without uttering a word.
The Saint Child, Lü Wenjing?
Lü Wenjing walked in, his gaze swept past Kong Ling and then settled on Lin Chen, his brow slightly furrowed.
“Who are you?
I haven’t seen you before.”
Lin Chen replied calmly, “A disciple of Myriad Immortal Hall’s Battle Hall, Lin Chen.”
Lü Wenjing paused for a mont, and the coldness his face dissipated slightly, “A Battle Hall disciple, why are you here?”
Kong Ling answered, “These two are my friends.
They ca to visit and coincidentally stumbled upon this matter.
They wanted to lend a hand, so they asked the clan for two spots to join us in the battle.”
Lü Wenjing nodded, then gave Lin Chen a slight bow before entering Sect Master Qi Gongji’s residence.
Lin Chen sent a telepathic ssage to Kong Ling, “He’s quite arrogant, isn’t he?
Does he act like this even when he’s outside, unafraid of being beaten up?”
Kong Ling snorted derisively, “Who lets him be the Saint Child, one of the only two cultivators of the Illusion Divine Technique?
Not to ntion other places, but here in the Illusory Serpent Sect, the most important people after the Sect Master are him.
In their words, the Sect Master is the past and the present, while the Saint Child is the present and the future.”
“The star of the sect indeed!”
Lin Chen joked, “Co on, let’s go for a walk.”
Outside the camp, disciples from various Great Sects were bustling about, making the place lively.
Lin Chen asked curiously, “So many people.
Are they all going into the Battle of Bloodshed?”
Kong Ling shook his head, “Of course not.
Sects select participants based on strength, in varying numbers.
In total, each side will have two hundred and fifty people, adding up to five hundred.
Many people you see here have co uninvited, wanting to witness the Battle Projections inside the Battle of Bloodshed…”
