Immortal of the Nine Realms

"Has anyone seen Fang Chen?"

"Not over here."

"Neither did I see him."

"It looks like he really ran away."

"He has a formidable cultivation but lacks the courage to face his challenges head-on. The Fang Family is indeed on the decline."

"Big Brother Fang Xiu, could Fang Chen have really run away?"

The disciples of the Fang Family looked very displeased upon hearing these discussions.

"Something's not right." Fang Xiu shook his head lightly. "Let's wait and see."

In his view, if Fang Chen dared to step up and meddle in the affairs of the Jue Family despite the chances of getting on their bad side then he wouldn't simply run away for no reason now.

Fang Yun's expression turned grim. "Senior Brother, if Fang Chen really fled from battle then our family will become the laughingstock of the empire from this day on."

Fang Jue's gaze flickered as he scanned around. "Don't jump to conclusions so quickly."

"Have you forgotten about the events at the Immortal Origin District? He always surprises people; perhaps this time is no different."

In the void, seven figures stood side by side.

The ones in the forefront were Fang Wanli and Princess Shenlong. The other five Golden Core Realm cultivators had slightly weaker auras.

They were the ancestors of the five major families in the inner city.

Princess Shenlong was frowning. "Fang Wanli, looks like your disciple lacks guts."

The ancestors of the five major families had peculiar expressions. Some of them had a glint of schadenfreude hidden in their eyes.

"Lacks guts?" Fang Wanli coldly chuckled. He took a swig from his gourd before wiping his mouth. "If Fang Chen lacked courage, why would he even step in and meddle in the Jue Family's affairs?"

Letting out a loud belch, he continued, "I refuse to believe this kid would flee from a fight. But have you all considered their actions? The Jue Family has gone too far this time. A prestigious top-tier family like theirs resorted to such actions against a young girl. If this gets out, others might think that the Grand Qian Empire is a demonic empire!"

"Fang Wanli, perhaps we should refrain from interfering in the Jue Family's affairs, just as our two families have never meddled in your Fang Family's affairs." Princess Shenlong frowned slightly. "Anyway, they've made a bet. If he can't withstand three moves from Jue Wudi, that girl will be taken by the Jue Family. Let's just wait and see."

Just then, the voice of Jue Wudi thundered. "Fang Chen, don't act like a coward. Come out and face me!"

Jue Wudi's gaze was sharp as lightning as he scanned all around. His voice, amplified by spiritual power, was like roaring thunder, spreading in all directions.

A hand holding a sword suddenly emerged slowly from behind Jue Wudi's neck. Although the sword seemed ordinary, it carried a chilling sword intent.

A face appeared from the shadows before whispering softly in Jue Wudi's ear, "I'm right here."

Jue Wudi felt a chill run down his spine, and every hair on his body stood on end as a cold sensation surged through his scalp.

“Don't move, the sword is already at your neck. If you try to move, I’m afraid my hand might slip and sever your head from your neck.”

"I know you're a Foundation Building Realm cultivator, but you can't regrow your head, right?"

How?! How is he behind me?!

Jue Wudi's face turned pale and beads of cold sweat dripped from his forehead. He didn't dare move. Even a Foundation Building Realm cultivator would be in perilous danger if someone closed in on them, especially if that person was strong enough to defeat Jue Tiangang. He was afraid that any movement would result in his demise, rendering all his years of cultivation and aspirations futile.

Qian Feng jumped to the side as if shocked by electricity, staring dumbfoundedly at Jue Wudi and Fang Chen. "Oh my god! He scared the hell out of me!"

Fang Lingxing and the others looked on in shock. Once they understood what was happening, their hearts sank.

"How did he…? How did he get there?"

"When did he sneak up here?"

"There's no way!"

Their faces turned pale. They couldn't understand how Fang Chen had suddenly appeared behind Jue Wudi without anyone noticing.

"This is impossible..." Fang Lingxing's face was grim as she stared at Fang Chen.

The abnormality at Spring Dawn Pavilion was finally noticed by someone, who shouted in astonishment, "That's Fang Chen!"

"His sword is actually against Jue Wudi's neck?!"

"Oh my God, how did this happen?"

The crowd had been struck dumb. They couldn't wrap their heads around what they were seeing, and they couldn't help but wonder if they had fallen under another illusion.

Fang Xiu's expression had turned into one of shock. After a while, he only managed to utter a few words. "This guy... he's too incredible..."

He's truly incredible.

He never expected that Fang Chen would just run up the Spring Dawn Tower and effortlessly subdue Jue Wudi.

Now that Fang Chen's sword was resting at his neck, Jue Wudi had already lost. The challenge of three movies had turned into nothing but a joke now.

"Didn't I tell you, Junior Sister? Just look at this," said Fang Jue with amusement.

Fang Yun was dumbfounded.

Behind them, Qian Jiuye took in a sharp breath as he stared blankly at Fang Chen. He rubbed his eyes before having another look.

"My eyes really aren't playing tricks on me," muttered Qian Jiuye.

The originally calm smile on Jue Feichen's face had now frozen. His brows locked as he stared fixedly at Fang Chen.

Tears rolled in Jiang Zhong's eyes and slid down his cheeks. "The young lady has been saved!"

Even the shameless Jue Family wouldn't dare to go back on their word in front of so many people.

In the void…

"Did I see that right?" Fang Wanli widened his eyes, then looked at Princess Shenlong. "Did you all see that?"

Princess Shenlong and the Golden Core Realm cultivators from the five major families revealed complicated looks.

They saw what happened, but they didn’t know how Fang Chen ascended the Spring Dawn Tower! The kid actually had a technique that even they couldn’t see through!

Fang Wanli suddenly burst into laughter before taking another swig of wine. "Hahaha, I knew this kid wouldn't give up so easily! He didn't disappoint me. Well done!"

He looked at Fang Chen, his gaze covered with a faint drunkenness, but deep within that intoxication, there was a clarity that ordinary people couldn't match.

Uncle Tingyuan's descendant… you really didn't disappoint me. Uncle Tingyuan, if you were still alive, you would definitely be proud of him, wouldn't you?

A faint light flashed in his eyes but it was quickly replaced by his intoxicated look.

Back at the tower.

"Do you surrender?" asked Fang Chen softly.

Jue Wudi clenched his fists tightly, his expression changing constantly.

Surrender? No, he couldn't surrender! If he surrendered today, he would never be able to lift his head again in the future!

There was no way he could admit defeat!

Jue Wudi screamed silently in his heart.

Just then, a glint of sword light flickered and stabbed toward Fang Chen.

"Get lost." Fang Chen flung a slap to the side, sending Fang Lingxing and her flying sword flying out of the Spring Dawn Tower and crashing heavily to the street.

Fang Lingxing lay motionless, face down. She was still breathing, but she had most definitely fainted.

"Fang Lingxing actually tried to make a move…."

"Fang Chen neutralized her attack and sent her flying with just a slap. The gap between them is really too big..."

The crowd was shocked.

"Jue Wudi, think it over carefully. If you don't surrender, you'll die," said Fang Chen softly.

The sword began to sink into Jue Wudi's skin a little, causing droplets of blood to ooze out.
