Chapter 66 Daylight Robbery!
If Long Chen had a choice, he would not have offended Huang Xiang. novelbin
But Yang Lingqing had spent all night preparing the gift for him, so he would never let this person buy his horse by force.
Yang Xueqing had told him to keep a low profile and avoid trouble if his cultivation was not up to par.
Long Chen didn’t want to argue with Young Master Huang Xiang either, but he was not a person who could be easily bullied.
At this point, the butler was already shooting him a hostile glare. Long Chen gave a small smile and said in a sincere tone, “I’ll be honest. This horse is extremely important to me, so I cannot sell it. If the young master really wants one, I don’t think it’ll be hard to catch another horse.”
If he was in Baiyang Town and someone wanted to take something that belonged to him this casually, Long Chen would have rushed forward without hesitation.
But now he was out of town with a heavy responsibility on his shoulders. That was why he was responding in a mature manner.
Unfortunately, being polite would only make people think it was easy to bully him and take even more.
The butler Old Liu thought he could chase Long Chen away easily and not sour his young master’s mood, but Long Chen seemed to be unable to read the room.
A killing intent rose in Old Liu, and he gestured to the nearby bodyguards, who started to surround Long Chen. Old Liu then said coldly, “Looking at your clothing, you must be from some inconspicuous background. It’s unfortunate that you’re so stupid and have so little knowledge. Our young master here is the grandson of Patriarch Huang from Huangyun City, one of Yuanling County’s ten great cities. I’ll give you one more chance to get out, or not only will you die a gruesome death, but every person related to you will die as well!”
But Long Chen would not be frightened this easily. He eyed Old Liu for a moment, speculating about his strength. The butler and the bodyguards are approximately at the Seventh Draconic Stage. They’re no match for me. However, what he said about the Huang family of Huangyun City should be true. I can’t afford to offend a superpower like that. And this Huang Xiang kid should be approximately at the Ninth Draconic Stage. But the horse was a gift from Lingqing ... No one is allowed to take it away ...”
Long Chen’s face darkened, and he glared at the butler. “Like I said, this horse is very important to me. Are you planning to commit a robbery right here in Yuanyang City?
Many people had noticed the conflict between Long Chen and the group by now and started to crowd around.
The hotel’s busboy looked at this dumb donkey that was Long Chen who dared to fight back. He was smart enough to quickly retreat into the crowd. Someone immediately asked him what was going on.
The busboy snickered and pointed at Long Chen. “That brat’s an idiot. That young master in luxurious clothing is obviously from a powerful family, and he wants the horse. But the brat declined him! Two divine jades! That’s enough to buy a hundred other Category Five demonic beasts! Is he stupid or what?”
A few passersby looked at the annoyed-looking Long Chen and nodded.
The manager of the hotel was a middle-aged man with a long beard. He stroked his beard, looking at Long Chen, and said, “This must be the teenager’s first time leaving home. He’s arrogant. It’s good for him to suffer a little and learn a lesson. But if they hit him too hard, I’m afraid that’ll be the end of him.”
Another hotel guest nodded. “Based on his attire, he’s probably a small-town aristocrat. He doesn’t know that he needs to control himself in a big city. If he dies, he can only blame his parents for not telling him how big the world actually is.”
Long Chen looked young and seemed to have some talent. It was a pity that he was just too impulsive. When the crowd thought about what would happen next, they all shook their heads.
The hotel’s busboy watched the way Long Chen struggled against the pressure of Huang Xiang’s aura like he had expected this all along.
When he served Long Chen, he never saw anything in the brat anyway. He had worked here for almost ten years now and was an expert at reading people. And he was never wrong.
Long Chen was privately shocked while looking at Huang Xiang. He had already killed two Ninth Draconic Stage cultivators and both kills were easy. However, although Huang Xiang was also at the Ninth Draconic Stage, he was stronger than the other two!
“This bastard’s family is rich. The Bai and Yang families are basically beggars in comparison. A family like his must own countless techniques, so you must be careful when you guys fight. Even Bai Sheng and Bai Li would’ve struggled to defend themselves against him!”
Ling Xi’s solemn words made Long Chen grow more cautious.
Everyone had already backed away by now, their eyes fixed at the center of the conflict. Old Liu and the few bodyguards were excited to see their young master display his strength!
“A small-town beggar like you wouldn’t know how deep wealth runs in a large clan!”
After Huang Xiang spoke, he charged at Long Chen in a flash.
Long Chen squinted because he felt like he could barely pinpoint Huang Xiang!
“This is a Body Combat Technique! Baiyang Town doesn’t have this, I think. Fortunately, the technique he’s using is only average. It’s only an intermediate Yellow-tier technique!”
Long Chen grew a little nervous when he heard Ling Xi’s explanation.
He had initially thought that defeating Huang Xiang would be as easy as killing Bai Sheng and Bai Li. It looked like he was very wrong! After gaining the Dragon Soul Transformation and Qi ten times stronger than usual, I have become arrogant and assumed I could defeat anyone even if they’re one or two levels above me. It looks like I’ve been looking at the heavens from the bottom of a well. There are countless superpowers much more powerful and richer than the Bai family. If I can fight someone above my level, they can likely do it even better!
With this train of thought, Long Chen understood that the reason he could defeat the Ninth Draconic Stage Bai Li when he was only at the seventh wasn’t because he was extraordinary, but because Bai Li was relatively weak.
Only Huang Xiang can be counted as having truly reached the Ninth Draconic Stage, one level higher than Long Chen!
And not only did Huang Xiang know a Body Combat Technique, he had also mastered an advanced Yellow-tier Body Tempering Technique. Long Chen had no advantage at all in this fight!
Long Chen’s heart fell to rock bottom.
But this did not mean he was afraid. It only meant that his opponents had leveled up from being his prey to people who he needed to fight with all his strength.
As long as it wasn’t someone at a much higher cultivation, Long Chen would be able to cope!
Huang Xiang charged using his Body Combat Technique, his footsteps light and unpredictable, making it difficult for Long Chen to pinpoint his location. The only solution Long Chen could think of was to retreat at lightning speed. While stepping backwards, he decided to use his Dragon Soul Transformation despite previously thinking it wouldn’t be needed!
When his blood-red scales emerged and Long Chen’s Qi skyrocketed to several times its original level, the crowd was stunned. The hotel’s busboy looked left and right and said awkwardly, “It’s just a Beast Soul Transformation technique; it’s not worthy of surprise. Haha ...”
Old Liu was shocked but quickly sighed in relief. “Even Ninth Draconic Stage Beast Warriors have fallen before Young Master Huang. This guy is only at the Eighth Draconic Stage ... It’ll be fine ...”
