145: In your next life, don't be so bold!

After a while.

Chen Xian led Zhou Duoer, who had already finished refining, down from Flame Mountain.

Compared to their leisurely stroll,

these Prodigies rushed over in a flurry.

Each of them was now filled with incredibly complex and conflicted emotions.

The reason for their complexity and conflict was simple.

Chen Xian was practically surrounded by treasures.

Besides the Celestial Dog, there was also a little girl who had refined the ten thousand year fire lotus.

Clearly, Xiao Chen was not the only one who harbored the intention of capturing Zhou Duoer and then extracting the ten thousand year fire lotus from her body.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was hiding extremely cautiously among the many Prodigies.

At the same time, as Chen Xian and Zhou Duoer got closer,

Xiao Chen's palms began to sweat.

As soon as the time was right,

he would use the Plantain Fan to snatch Zhou Duoer and leave this cursed place.

Then, for the next eight days, he wouldn't need to bother with any Opportunities; he would just focus on extracting the ten thousand year fire lotus, and that would be victory!

Thinking about returning to the Sect and quickly becoming a Core Disciple of the Sect,

and even securing the position of the next Sect Master with the ten thousand year fire lotus,

Xiao Chen could barely suppress the smile on his lips!

No!

Hold on!

Especially at a time like this, he couldn't let his guard down.

Because there were definitely countless others with the same goal as him!

If a Foundation Establishment Stage expert with a background and backing obtained an Opportunity, while they might be envious, jealous, and hateful, they wouldn't dare say much!

But Zhou Duoer was merely a servant by Chen Xian's side.

They didn't even care about Chen Xian, let alone Zhou Duoer!

At this moment, Chen Xian had already led Zhou Duoer in front of these Prodigies.

Naturally, Gu Qingcheng and Zheng Yi were the first to step forward; the two women were now completely convinced by Chen Xian.

Even as daughters of a Prince, they had never seen a man as formidable as Chen Xian!

In an instant, the two women not only developed a sense of awe towards Chen Xian, but also feelings of admiration!

Pei Ning, however, had fewer thoughts; she raised a hand, and ten Embroidered Uniform Guards seemed to have agreed beforehand.

They surrounded Chen Xian.

But just then, Chen Xian pushed them away.

"Go, go, go, I'm trying to show off here, if you block me, how can I show off?"

"Fellow Daoist Chen Xian, your sword technique just now was incredibly cool!"

"Fellow Daoist Chen Xian, is this big yellow dog at your feet really a Celestial Dog?"

"The step of obtaining the ten thousand year fire lotus just now, I truly admire! Marquis of Jubei is unmatched in bravery!"

Since Chen Xian's acquisitions were already settled, some Prodigies came with the intention of befriending him.

If they couldn't be friends, they absolutely couldn't be enemies!

However, a considerable number of Prodigies were still smiling on the surface, but secretly preparing.

They were just waiting for chaos to break out to snatch Zhou Duoer and flee.

Chen Xian greeted everyone with a smile.

He looked exactly like a naive second generation ancestor.

For a time, a subtle and strange atmosphere formed among them.

Just then, an impatient Prodigy finally couldn't hold back.

Strike first to gain the upper hand!

Especially since he was a Disciple of the Crimson Flame Sect, making a move now would surely allow him to gain the initiative later!

Although there was a risk of becoming a target for everyone, the accompanying Opportunities were also significant.

Of course, his Junior Martial Brother had also been constantly instigating him.

Xiao Chen whispered, "Senior Brother, you just need to grab Zhou Duoer and leave quickly, I'll cover you from behind!"

The Crimson Flame Sect Prodigy's heart was greatly moved.

"Junior Martial Brother, I'll leave it to you!"

With that!

His movements suddenly sped up!

A furious roar then entered everyone's ears.

"The ten thousand year fire lotus naturally belongs to me!"

"Chen Xian, how are you worthy of such an Opportunity and fortune!"

As soon as he finished speaking,

he rushed towards Zhou Duoer at his fastest speed.

At this moment, these Prodigies naturally noticed.

However, no one made a move.

They wanted such a trailblazer.

This guy's move could not only break the current stalemate,

but also create chaos.

As long as Zhou Duoer wasn't by Chen Xian's side, wouldn't they have a legitimate chance to snatch her?

However, just as this Crimson Flame Sect Prodigy rushed in front of Chen Xian,

he suddenly heard the sound of a sword being sheathed.

"Hmm?"

Before he could react,

Chen Xian said with a smile, "You're very bold. In your next life, don't be so bold!"

As he finished speaking,

this Crimson Flame Sect Prodigy felt his body split in two.

Pfft!

He didn't even get a last word in.

He was instantly cut into a bloody mist by Chen Xian's sword!

At the same time!

These Prodigies, who were preparing to act in the chaos, all stood gaping, as if struck by lightning!

They had almost made their move.

But Chen Xian's speed was too fast, wasn't it?

They didn't even see how Chen Xian drew his sword!

This guy had already completed the kill.

Especially against this Crimson Flame Sect Prodigy.

He actually killed him in one strike.

Looking at the Crimson Flame Sect Prodigy

The shock this gave these Prodigies was far more severe than anything Chen Xian had done on Flame Mountain.

After all, this was right before their eyes.

Chen Xian didn't use any of the trump cards or killer moves they had imagined.

This man merely used a light sword strike.

He could make a Prodigy similar to them die a violent death.

Chen Xian could easily kill this Prodigy.

So, could he also kill them?

This caused those Prodigies who wanted to make a move to even feel a chill rise from the soles of their feet.

Damn it!

They were lucky they didn't make a move.

Otherwise, with Chen Xian and his single sword, how many Prodigies would be enough for him to cut down!

Chen Xian, however, did not stop his steps at this moment.

He just swept his gaze across these people.

He could tell the effect of his sword strike from the expressions on their faces.

Shock, fear, solemnity, conflict!

However, he also saw guilt on one person's face!

That was Xiao Chen!

Although this guy was wearing a human skin mask, Chen Xian still saw the guilt on his face at a glance!

It's him!

The son of heavens chosen!

Is he like Ye Wentian?

Then I absolutely cannot let him live!

Although Chen Xian didn't know how powerful the son of heavens chosen truly was in reality, he had read many cultivation novels on Blue Star.

Among them, the son of heavens chosen was practically like a cheat.

They were all top protagonists in their respective worlds.

When Ye Wentian was captured, the Ye family spared no effort to save him, refusing to give up.

Last time, Xiao Chen also had Crimson Flame Sect Elders and Senior Brothers covering his retreat.

This was enough to explain everything.

He couldn't let such a person continue to grow.

Otherwise, he would be the one to suffer!

Especially since the other party already harbored ill intentions.

So Chen Xian felt no pressure at all when drawing his sword.

Pfft!

With one sword strike,

Xiao Chen didn't even have the strength to resist.

He just watched helplessly as the Sword Qi pierced through his chest!

Pfft!
