Chapter 277 – Battle with the first Axe Cultivator
"Su Wanling! Does our Eternal Guild need to ask your Moon Shadow Guild for permission to do things? You''ve already offended a Blood Fiend, and now you want to offend us too?"
Zhang Chang pointed at Su Wanling and shouted angrily,pletely ignoring Lin Jichen.
Everyone in the Eternal Guild knew that Lin Jichen was a henpecked husband and an online dating addict.
He loved online dating and got involved with Su Wanling from the Moon Shadow Guild.
If it weren''t for this, Lin Jichen would have long wanted to switch to the Eternal Guild.
This matter had given Wang Jinghao a headache for quite a while, and he couldn''te up with a good solution in the end.
Seeing the two of them together now, Zhang Chang was even more convinced of his judgment: Lin Jichen had a small mindset, was henpecked, and was afraid of his wife.
Whatever Su Wanling told him to do, he would do.
Su Wanling secretly pinched Lin Jichen''s waist hard and red at him, nning to settle ounts with himter.
Then she sneered at Zhang Chang, "Don''t talk nonsense. Didn''t you just say that today''s actions were personal and not rted to the guild? Well, my actions are personal too and have nothing to do with the Moon Shadow Guild."
Zhang Chang felt pped in the face and said angrily, "If you leave now, I won''t hold it against you. Otherwise, face the consequences."
Su Wanling casually brushed her short hair and said, "You big men ganging up on a girl and feeling justified, it''s really shameful!"
"Today, I dere that if you act like shameless bandits, I must act as a heroine!"
After saying this, Su Wanling drew a sword, pointing it straight ahead with a sharp gaze, refusing to back down an inch.
This side of Su Wanling even scared Lin Jichen a bit.
Xing Sen, who was standing nearby, was even more stunned, his honest bull-like eyes staring at Su Wanling, his heart pounding uncontrobly.
Zhang Chang gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, then I''ll deal with you too!"
He then looked at Lin Jichen and warned, "Brother Lin, you''re close buddies with our guild leader. You won''t interfere, right?"
Lin Jichen looked ''troubled'' and finally sighed, "You know I''m good friends with your guild leader, but..."
"But what?" Zhang Chang asked.
Lin Jichen pondered for a moment, then suddenlyughed and shouted, "But I''m not familiar with you! Who the hell do you think you are?!"
<em>Pfft~</em>
Su Wanling couldn''t help butugh, giving Lin Jichen a sidelong nce.
Shi Xiyue, standing nearby, was also amused.
Zhang Chang''s face turned pale and then red, but he knew that if Lin Jichen decided to act, they wouldn''t stand a chance.
But he had a trump card.
"Xing Sen, what are you standing there for? Come help!"
Zhang Chang shouted at Xing Sen, who was still in a daze.
Xing Sen snapped out of it, hisrge face turning red like a child caught doing something wrong, and walked over to Zhang Chang.
"Brother Zhang, what''s up?"
"When the fight starts, you keep an eye on Lin Jichen," Zhang Chang instructed.
"Huh? Brother Zhang, do we really have to fight?" Xing Sen looked troubled.
"Stop talking nonsense! Do what I say! The guild leader isn''t here, so I''m in charge! Did you forget what the guild leader instructed? Do you want to betray us?"
Xing Sen quickly shook his head, "Brother Zhang, I wouldn''t. I''m not that kind of person."
"Then follow orders. Haven''t you always wanted to spar with Lin Jichen? This is your chance. I don''t expect you to defeat him, just hold him off. We''ll quickly deal with Su Wanling and Shi Xiyue, grab the stuff, and leave," Zhang Chang exined.
Hearing that they were going to attack Su Wanling, Xing Sen hesitated even more.
"Brother Zhang, isn''t this going too far? Maybe we should..."
"Do what I say! Don''t forget, you signed a lifetime contract with the Eternal Guild. To put it bluntly, you''re our guild''s dog! Do what you''re told! Your sister is still in the hospital. Do you want her to recover or not?" Zhang Chang threatened coldly.@@novelbin@@
Xing Sen''s face changed, but he dared not speak out. Thinking of his situation and his sister, he swallowed his anger.
"I understand," Xing Sen replied sullenly, drawing out a pair of axes.
These were the Six Harmonies and Eight Trigrams Axes that Lin Jichen had sold to Wang Jinghao, Earth Grade equipment.
These axes required a Golden Core Realm cultivator to wield. Wang Jinghao had spent a lot of money and effort to push Xing Sen to the Golden Core Realm early.
Moreover, Xing Sen''s Golden Core breakthrough was at the Heavenly Dao level.
The materials for the Heavenly Dao breakthrough were all purchased by Wang Jinghao at great expense, showing how much he valued Xing Sen.
Xing Sen, holding the axes, walked heavily towards Lin Jichen.
"Lin Jichen, I''m sorry, but I have to stop you," Xing Sen apologized to Lin Jichen.
It was clear he didn''t want to fight, but he had no choice but to obey orders.
Lin Jichen smiled lightly at him, "Do you think you can stop me?"
Xing Sen, full of fighting spirit, replied, "I think I can!"
"Alright, let''s see how the number one axe wielder of Tale of Immortal fares."
Lin Jichen was intrigued.
In his previous life, Xing Sen was recognized as the number one axe wielder, ranking very high on the Tale of Immortal leaderboard.
Lin Jichen had fought Xing Sen before, but at that time, he was a yearte to the game and was a spell cultivator.
In terms of realm and skill, he was no match for Xing Sen.
Back then, Xing Sen had easily crushed and defeated him.
Now, facing Xing Sen again, there was still a gap in their realms.
Xing Sen was already at mid-Golden Core, while Lin Jichen was only at mid-stage Crystal Formation.
There was a whole major realm difference between them.
But Lin Jichen was confident. He knew he would win!
"Wife, you''ll have to hold on for a bit. I''ll leave Panda Xiong to you. Just hang in there, and I''lle help you once I''m done."
Before the fight, Lin Jichen didn''t forget to tease Su Wanling.
"Who needs your help! Who''s your wife!" Su Wanling retorted angrily.
But her words sounded more like yful banter between lovers.
Seeing this, Xing Sen''s eyes darkened, and he took the fight with Lin Jichen even more seriously.
"Forgive me!"
Xing Sen was the first to strike!
Despite his bulky frame, his speed was not slow at all. He charged towards Lin Jichen like a wild beast, his axes raised high, shing down at Lin Jichen!
The axes rapidly expanded in the air, shining with golden light, carrying terrifying power and a heavy momentum, the axe light dazzling!
"Mountain-Cleaving Strike!"
Lin Jichen''s eyes were sharp, and his body, which had been still, suddenly moved forward, not dodging but boldly meeting the attack head-on!
In an instant, he was already in front of Xing Sen!
Xing Sen was shocked by Lin Jichen''s ghostly speed.
How many points had this guy put into speed? Why did it feel like his speed, as a mid-Golden Core Heavenly Dao cultivator, was being outmatched by someone at the mid-stage of Crystal Formation?
<em>Had he put all his free attributes into speed?</em>
But the real shock for Xing Sen was just beginning.
