<h4>Chapter 2251 Raw 2358 : Trying to Run?</h4>


    Alloy Dragon Armor!


    The reverse scale of an ancient Thunder Dragon, a Thunder Dragon’s spine, five tons of Thunder Dragon true blood, and a Great Deste Eon dragon soul.


    Xiao Chen’s Alloy Battle Armor itself had already reached 4-Star quality. Furthermore, Master Ku Yun personally altered it into the Alloy Dragon Armor, making it unique. Now, this was the most suitable battle armor in the world for Xiao Chen.


    The instant he activated the battle armor, the Azure Dragon’s power deep within his bloodline ignited like fire on oil, turning into a roiling dragon me burning fiercely.


    When Xiao Chen’s aura emerged from his body, together with the dragon roar, it shocked the surroundings. Everyone in the vast independent world with mountains and rivers within the Smiling Daughter Pavilion could sense the strength of the Dragon Might. The entire pavilion shook slightly.


    A dragon image came out from each of the gloves, the two flickering with electric light as they wound around Xiao Chen’s arms before proceeding to cover his entire body.


    Then, the dragon images merged; the Alloy Dragon Armor appeared before the three princes and the many experts at the banquet.


    Deep purple dragon motifs covered the silver armor. It looked like two dragons spiraled around the armor, baring fangs and ws.


    A pendant dangled on Xiao Chen’s forehead, like the finishing stroke, bringing the armor to life.


    “Have you carefully considered the price of killing me, Xiao Chen?!”


    These words lingered in everyone’s ears. At first, the three princes, the veiled woman, and the Noble n Elders mocked these words.


    Ordinary people might show concern about the envoy inspector status. However, who here would truly fear you if we fell out?


    It is not like the Heavenly Alliance’s envoy inspectors have not died in Yan City before.


    However, the instant the Alloy Dragon Armor appeared, after Xiao Chen smashed the table, even 4-Vein Sovereign Emperors found the pressure unbearable. This startled everyone.


    Everyone felt a soul-deep chilling from Xiao Chen.


    “Xiao Chen, you really want to die that much?”


    The veiled woman’s expression turned extremely cold. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen was so decisive. Even in a situation of certain death, he was still unwilling topromise.


    The three princes showed extremely unsightly expressions.


    Although there was a rift between them due to the intensepetition to be crown prince, they all came from the Royal n and shared the same bloodline. For the first time, they felt their majesty being humiliated.


    This Xiao Chen was truly reckless. He refused face when given it.


    Three princes appeared at the same time to give him face and a way out. However, Xiao Chen refused, falling out with everyone and making threats.


    If he were just an ordinary person, they would just casually kill him.


    However, the chests of the three princes and the four Noble n Elders tightened when Xiao Chen activated his Alloy Dragon Armor.


    They knew that there was no way to settle this peacefully anymore. Furthermore, this Xiao Chen was not as easy to kill as they had imagined.


    If they attacked forcefully, they would pay a heavy price. Perhaps someone here would die.


    “Xiao Chen, there is a proverb, one should leave some maneuvering space when conducting oneself. Do you need to push things to the extreme? Why force yourself into a dead end? All you have to do is lower your head and acknowledge your mistakes. Then, everyone would be friends. I can even endure the fact that you killed Monarch Yu.” The Eighth Prince clearly enunciated every word as he looked at Xiao Chen.


    “Xiao Chen, don’t refuse face when given it. Everyone already gave you face by calling you here. Otherwise, there is no need to waste time on nonsense with you. There are ways for us to kill a person silently in the imperial capital!” the First Prince Wang Fei said coldly with a sullen expression.


    “Humph! This is the first time this great me saw someone who dares to smash the table before three princes. Are you trying to rebel?”


    A dark look shed in the Thirteenth Prince’s eyes. This was the first time he saw such a defiant person, which made him exceptionally angry.


    “Hahahaha!”


    Xiao Chen guffawed upon hearing all that. This was simply the funniest joke he had heard in his life.


    Interesting! Interesting!


    This group of people gathered together andid this trap, wanting to trample me into submission. Then, they turn things around and say that I am forcing them into mutual death.


    However, Xiao Chen had seen many such things before and had long disdained to exin.


    He could not be bothered with pointless exnations. He guffawed and said, “This Xiao never wastes time on nonsense. Don’t you want the written statements of leaving the Heavenly Alliance? Don’t you want the Fairy Basket? Don’t you want me, Xiao Chen, to lower my head and admit to mistakes? Just kill me, Xiao Chen, and take my head. Then, you can get everything you want. Come,e,e. Attack by all means. As long as you have already carefully considered the price that you will pay, this Xiao will stand here and wait for you.”


    As Xiao Chen let out wildughter, he coldly eyed this group of people. His royal Azure Dragon bloodline burned fiercer as heughed. When supported by the Alloy Dragon Armor, his glorious Dragon Might could not be blocked. The isted Smiling Daughter Pavilion shook and trembled endlessly.


    All the honored guests in the pavilions far from the banquet hall, away from the mountains and rivers, panicked.


    “What’s going on? What strong Dragon Might! Is someone causing trouble in the Smiling Daughter Pavilion?”


    “What is something happening in the mountains-and-rivers small world?”


    “Quickly get out. We can’t remain in the private room anymore.”


    The entire Smiling Daughter Pavilion fell into chaos. The honored guests all rushed out in a fluster. When they looked at the mountains and rivers from a distance, they immediately felt stunned.


    Three princes and Pavilion Master Yang were there. Just any of them could shake up the entire imperial capital.


    To think that these people gathered together. That was not all. There were also 4-Vein Sovereign Emperor Elders of the Yanwu Dynasty’s four ancient great Noble ns.


    Furthermore, there seemed to be ten-odd other Sovereign Emperors. However, no one dared to make a move.


    The youth wearing the dragon armor appeared too dazzling, stopping everyone in their tracks.


    There was an air about him that said that he thought nothing of death. He looked down on the world, showing the air of a ruler of the whole world.


    “Damn it! Why is this person not taking the high road!”


    The three princes felt furious. Despite knowing that he would die, Xiao Chen dared to go against them.


    Go test him out! The First Prince secretly gave instructions to a hidden 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor, unable to tolerate the situation anymore.


    The 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor quickly appeared, moving like a phantom as he charged at Xiao Chen with lightning speed.


    I have an immortal heart but cannot do anything about the unjust world. The narrow paths are always covered in dust and filth. My immortal heart is covered in dust and filth, as well.


    When my immortal heart is cleansed and the flower blooms, it illuminates three lives!


    “Whoosh!”


    Xiao Chen drew Heavenly yer, the powerful Soul Tool that he inherited in the Azure Dragons’ oldnds.


    With the light of this saber, I cut off the filth of the world, restoring my immortal heart. In the next moment, the immortal flower bloomed. A blue lotus flower made purely of saber intent bloomed vibrantly, with Xiao Chen as its center.


    When the saber light swept out, blue lotus flowers bloomed in the air.


    In an instant, the mountains, the rivers, and the pavilions disappeared from view, leaving only the blooming lotus flowers and shing shadows and lights that created a dream-like illusory space.


    As the lights and shadows shed, Xiao Chen stood on a blue lotus flower. His eyes looked as clear as water crystals, and his immortal heart shone with a bright light.


    When the mysterious phenomenon disappeared, the resplendent saber light instantly killed the 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor that tried to sneak-attack Xiao Chen.


    The saber light split the 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor’s body in half. However, the saber light did not stop. It flew on, breaking the many restrictions. “Crack!” The saber light tore a hole in the roof of the Smiling Daughter Pavilion.


    This saber strike seemed to shatter the heavens. The boundless starlight in the night sky of the imperial capital Yan City entered through the hole, bathing the Alloy-Dragon-Armor-d Xiao Chen in radiance.


    This scene triggered argemotion everywhere. The three princes’ expressions turned frosty and even more unsightly.


    This saber strike truly shattered the heavens; it would definitely startle the entire imperial capital. They could no longer hide their attempt to murder the Heavenly Alliance’s envoy inspector.


    Even if they did not want to kill Xiao Chen, they had to now.


    However, Xiao Chen had killed a 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor in one saber strike. Who would dare to go and try his de again?


    Only now did everyone truly understand Xiao Chen’s question of “Have you carefully considered?”


    “That saber!”


    The Sovereign Emperors present stared at the Heavenly yer Saber in Xiao Chen’s hand, showing deep fear in their eyes.


    Blood dripped from the tip of the saber. As Xiao Chen looked at this group of people, he felt quite bored. “This Xiao knows that he will die. However, is no one willing toe and take my head? Is there really no one among the three princes’ subordinates courageous enough to test the saber in my hand?”


    Right after Xiao Chen spoke, he took one step forward. The three princes retreated simultaneously, letting their 4-Vein Sovereign Emperor guards shield them.


    The Association Chiefs and Noble n Elders seemed unable to control their legs, all of them taking one step back.


    Only the veiled woman continued disying a cold expression, showing off a frost-like murderous intent in her eyes. She said coldly, “Xiao Chen, this is yourst warning. Don’t force me. No one ever gets to walk out alive after causing trouble in the Smiling Daughter Pavilion, ever!”


    Pavilion Master Yang’s voice sounded cold and frosty, inspiring chills. Clearly, the Smiling Daughter Pavilion’s Pavilion Master now intended to kill.


    Someone broke the restrictions and tore the roof of the Smiling Daughter Pavilion. This was already a great humiliation, long crossing her bottom line.


    When Xiao Chen heard that, he could not help chuckling. “What a nice ‘Don’t force you! I, Xiao Chen, do not think that I am a good person. I have killed countless people in my life. However, on looking back, I can count the number of women I killed on one hand. Tell me, how did I, Xiao Chen, force you today? Who was the one whoid the trap and lured me here? Who was the one who was ruthless, telling me that there was no room for negotiation? Who was the one who said that they wouldpletely humiliate me if I, Xiao Chen, did not lower my head?”


    “Whoosh!”


    Xiao Chen paused here and pointed the Heavenly yer Saber in his hand straight at the veiled woman.


    A strong wind surged in that direction, moving together with the cold light from the saber. The light immediately lit up the eyes of many people.


    “However, I, Xiao Chen, do not care about all that! Since you have forced me into this situation of certain death, I will admit to the blunder. I have no intention of walking out. If you have thought through the consequences, thene and take my head. The Smiling Daughter Pavilion surely has Peak Sovereign Emperors overseeing the ce. There is also the Superior Grade Soul Tool Fairy Basket. How can I, Xiao Chen, not know about them? Just use them. Why the need to put up such a pretense?”


    The veiled woman watched as Xiao Chen mocked. This kind of mockery implying that Xiao Chen figured everything out felt very unbearable, making her ashamed and unable to show her face. She no longer wanted to look at him, shouting shrilly, “Since you want to die, I’ll grant your wish!”


    “Kill him! We can no longer peacefully resolve today’s matter!” the First Prince said sullenly. A cold light shed in his eyes. No one expected Xiao Chen to be so terrifying.


    Despite being a mere 1-Vein Sovereign Emperor, Xiao Chen could kill a 3-Vein Sovereign Emperor with one saber strike when helped by the Heavenly yer Saber Soul Tool and the Alloy Dragon Armor.


    If not for them being in the Smiling Daughter Pavilion, they indeed could not do anything to Xiao Chen.


    The other Sovereign Emperor experts released their bated breaths simultaneously. Since the Peak Sovereign Emperors could make their move, that would be best.


    Peak Sovereign Emperors were powerful experts who surpassed six Divine Veins.


    A Soul Tool could notpensate for such a difference in strength.


    Xiao Chen remained expressionless. He already held his Heavenly Alliance medallion, which could bring out four sword images capable of severely injuring Peak Sovereign Emperors, in his hand.


    The ck and White Eggs in the Divine Universe Stele were already raring to go.


    If anyone wanted to kill Xiao Chen, they had to be prepared to pay the price, even Peak Sovereign Emperors.


    At the same time, an extremely puissant aura spread out silently. The instant this aura appeared, it felt unparalleled, like a huge mountain pressing down on everyone and making breathing difficult.


    This was the might and pressure from a Peak Sovereign Emperor. With such a level of suppression, even the blood in the bones seemed to freeze.


    Xiao Chen gritted his teeth as he held his saber, not saying a word. A stubbornness that showed in the depths of his eyes prevented him from ever lowering his head.


    “Plop!”


    At this very tense moment, just as the Peak Sovereign Emperor in the Smiling Daughter Pavilion was about to make their move, a loud miserable cry rang out.


    Yuan Zhen saw that the situation was not good and moved quickly, trying to slip out.


    The instant Yuan Zhen jumped up, the beggar, who was now sprawled on the floor, pulled on Yuan Zhen’s ck clothes in a stupor.


    Thus, Yuan Zhen tripped and fell to the floor with a ‘plop. His ck clothes got dragged down, and his hat fell off.


    This revealed Yuan Zhen’s shiny, eye-catching bald head, which instantly grabbed everyone’s attention.


    “Hehe! A perverted monking to a pleasure quarter. After visiting women, he wants to run away! Hahahaha! A perverted monking to a pleasure quarter. After visiting women, he wants to run away!” The beggar started guffawing in a drunken stupor as he looked at the ck clothes in his hand.


    “There are monastic scars. He really is a monk!”


    “Twelve monastic scars. This...this...this is an esteemed monk of the Hidden Spirit Temple!”


    “Only the Hidden Spirit Temple disciples have twelve monastic scars on their heads. What’s going on?”


    “I recognize him. He is Yuan Zhen, the leader of the Hidden Spirit Temple’s Yuan generation! He is the Hidden Spirit Temple’s top true inheritor, someone who is inpetition with the Universe Origin Sect’s Holy Son!”


    “My goodness! It really is Venerable Yuan Zhen!”


    [TL Note: Monastic scars are scars made on a Buddhist monk’s head by burning a dot with an incense stick. They are a sign of the monastic discipline that they vow to uphold. It is not an indication of rank in the real world but of the strictness of the monastic discipline they follow. The number of dots can vary from one to twelve, with twelve being the strictest.]
