Chapter 2871
Defeated by a Single Strike
“Who’s this?”
Jiang Chen frowned and turned around to see what was behind. It was exactly the Zhou Mountain Ridge behind him, the Luo Feng Valley! He had no way to run anymore. Since the pursuer had already caught up, where could he run?
Jiang Chen immediately set up his Little Ashura Sword Formation. That was the most powerful strike he could cast at the moment. Even a Hierarch expert might not be able to deal with the formation safely. As long as that was not any incredibly strong expert, Jiang Chen wouldn’t need to worry too much.
In a flash, Jiang Chen finished setting up the Little Ashura Sword Formation. At the moment, a black-clothed figure stepped in and his facial expression was dull and cold.
Jiang Chen’s pupils shrunk as he knew who the man was. He was Yan Qingcheng’s G.o.dfather. He was even the Reverend of the Nine Boundaries, Mo Jiuchi!
“It’s you!”
Jiang Chen said with a deep voice.
“What? Are you surprised? Hehe. Why does seeing me make you so unhappy? You have shown the Reverend of the Nine Boundaries no respect at all.”
Mo Jiuchi said faintly.
“You are not the Reverend of the Qi Lian Boundary, why should I respect you? I don’t think there’s any good thing for you to come to look for me.”
Jiang Chen said coldly. Although he knew that this guy was not any good man, Jiang Chen was still unwilling to offend him. The chance of surviving was really slim if he had to fight this Reverend of the Nine Boundaries. People with this t.i.tle were not like any other ordinary Hierarch experts. They had ruled over the nine boundaries for more than thousands of years. Who could sit in such a position to rule over the world without real strength?
Mo Jiuchi was not a good man at all. Compared to Zi Qingtian, he was cunning and despicable. Jiang Chen was not comfortable with this guy. Although they never had any contact before, he sensed that this guy was definitely not a good man. Zi Qingtian was an open and righteous man. At least he would not do something in the dark despite his high position. But he did not know if this guy would be like this or not.
“What an arrogant guy. Hehe. It would be just a piece of cake for me to kill you. You still dare to be so presumptuous in front of me. You seem too ludicrous and self-conceited.”
Mo Jiuchi sneered and said. He did not care about Jiang Chen at all as Jiang Chen was indeed like a tiny ant in his eye. Despite their talent, people who were under Hierarch Realm were nothing to him at all. Killing you is just as easy as taking things out from my pocket.
“I don’t know when I had offended you, Reverend master?”
Jiang Chen said faintly and humbly.
“The precious stone lands its innocent possessor in jail. You have not offended me. Unfortunately, I caught a fancy of the Thunderbolt Agarwood in your hands. That is something even an Emperor realm master would covet. You are just a Divine King, do you think you fit to have it?”
Mo Jiuchi smiled and said.
“Mo Fangzhou told you this!”
Jiang Chen’s countenance fell. He thought of Mo Fangzhou immediately because all of the people who knew about this had died except Moling Dongcheng, A’mo Kehan and Mo Fangzhou. It was impossible for Moling Dongcheng and A’mo Kehan betray him. Jiang Chen was confident in them but not Mo Fangzhou. Mo Fangzhou did not like Jiang Chen from the beginning and he always wanted to bring the Thunderbolt Agarwood back to the Mo Family. From his perspective, Thunderbolt Agarwood should have belonged to the Mo Family. But in reality, the real reason was his own deceptive greed. How would Jiang Chen not realize?
“You’re a smart guy. Unfortunately, it’s useless now. The Thunderbolt Agarwood is a precious thing. Kid, if you hand it to me now, I might spare your life.”
Mo Jiuchi grinned and said.
“Even if I give it to you, you might not spare me. Being the Reverend of the Nine Boundaries, you are doing such a despicable thing, won’t you be despised by others? I think it is going to damage your reputation. So, you actually have never thought of letting me go.”
Jiang Chen’s eyes looked cold as this guy had already decided to kill him. Jiang Chen was not a flower growing up in the greenhouse, how would he believe what Mo Jiuchi said? Only when Jiang Chen died, Mo Jiuchi could sit back and relax.
However, Mo Fangzhou the b.a.s.t.a.r.d was the person Jiang Chen found most irritating. Jiang Chen saved his life before but he repaid the kindness with hatred. Mo Fangzhou told Mo Jiuchi about the Thunderbolt Agarwood, so that Jiang Chen would be killed. He wanted to put Jiang Chen into a deep pit. It was really devious and cunning.
If it was not for Moling Dongcheng and A’mo Kehan, Jiang Chen would not show any compa.s.sion to Mo Fangzhou. Self-interest had blinded Mo Fangzhou’s eyes and made him full of hatred. He did not show any appreciation to Jiang Chen and even used such a low trick to kill him. It’s really unforgivable. That was the first time Jiang Chen saw such a b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
Jiang Chen, however, did not understand how much hatred Mo Fangzhou had in his heart. Jiang Chen took away the G.o.ddess in his heart and his slot to enter the Profound Connection Divine Palace. Jiang Chen also took away the Thunderbolt Agarwood. All these things made Mo Fangzhou really unsatisfied. Mo Fangzhou’s biggest wish was to see Jiang Chen disappear in this world.
“Hehe. You’re really thoughtful. Then I don’t need to hide anything from you anymore. I am here to kill you today. I want the Thunderbolt Agarwood and your life!”
As soon as Mo Jiuchi finished his words, his expression changed as well. His cold breath released and spread across a thousand li.
“What a dreadful qi. A Hierarch expert is out of the ordinary!”
Jiang Chen’s countenance fell. This was the first time he dealt with a true Hierarch expert. It was going to be a life-and-death battle. Jiang Chen knew that his chance of winning was very slim. It was less than 10 percent. But he had no choice now. If he did nothing, there would be death waiting for him. So it’s better for him to fight at the cost of his life; he might still gain a slim chance of survival.
“Don’t make those unnecessary struggles, otherwise, you are going to die tragically.”
Mo Jiuchi said faintly. In a flash, he made a blow with his palm. His dreadful Divine Origin Strength swept across the entire sky. Jiang Chen felt that he was completely suppressed by this palm strike. It was just a simple strike but Jiang Chen found it irresistible.
“Seventh Sword!”
Jiang Chen took out his sword to withstand the attack. The dreadfulness of the Limitless Sword could make all the cultivators who were under Hierarch Realm terrified. The terrifying sword aura could devour the sky.
Mo Jiuchi smiled faintly. When his palm strike crashed into the Limitless Sword, the sword shadow was shattered into pieces and disappeared in the void. It was turned into nothing.
The huge palm, on the other hand, continued to crash against Jiang Chen. Jiang Chen casted dragon transformation to withstand the palm strike but he was still repulsed badly. He was seriously injured.
“Too powerful……”
Jiang Chen murmured and blood came out from the corner of his mouth. He was defeated merely by a single strike. Jiang Chen never encountered something like this before. He was defeated. His opponent was indeed too powerful. He was not an Early Hierarch expert. At first, Jiang Chen wanted to test the opponent’s strength, but now he knew that he would not be able to resist one more strike from this guy.
