Chapter 2895: The First Challenger: Chen Cangxiong!

Chapter 2895: Chapter 2899: The First Challenger: Chen Cangxiong!

Elder Cang was well aware that within the territory of the Chen Dynasty, there were people with a strong sense of justice. If Ling Xiao was described as a heinous villain, it would be enough to mobilize these experts.

Moreover, there’s Tianchi Mountain.

Li Xiaotian’s death would undoubtedly cause an uproar at Tianchi Mountain.

Although two days may seem tight, Tianchi Mountain would certainly send experts stronger than Li Xiaotian.

Elder Cang didn’t believe that Ling Xiao could still survive?

Two days might be long, might be short.

Yet Ling Xiao accomplished several significant feats.

First, he promoted the setting up of a martial arts ring, causing a stir among the Chen Dynasty’s martial artist circles.

Countless martial artists hurried to Thunder City within those two days.

Secondly, he abolished the royal power of the Chen Dynasty, with armies advancing from Demon Dragon City and Eight Immortals County.

Since the Chen Dynasty was practically devoid of experts, the conquest was very easy.

In merely a day, most regions of the Chen Dynasty had changed allegiance, declaring submission to the Eight Immortals Kingdom.

Of course, these people were fickle; to truly subdue them, Ling Xiao had to defeat the Thunder Emperor before everyone.

As for other matters, he had no concerns.

Chen Cangmang would help him handle it.

He appointed Chen Cangmang as the Country Lord of the Eight Immortals Kingdom, responsible for managing its territories and accepting those who surrendered.

The final task was setting up a massive and sturdy arena outside Thunder City, waiting for experts from all under heaven to come.

The two days passed quickly.

Outside Thunder Capital City, tens of thousands of martial artists had already gathered.

Among them, some came just to spectate, while others naturally came to challenge Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao stood atop the arena, coldly scanning the crowd.

He could keenly sense that there were numerous strong ones among them.

Some even posed a significant threat to him.

This was due to their partial concealment of their aura.

But the more this was the case, the more excited he became.

Only such strong ones were qualified to challenge him, giving him the motivation for advancement.

Among the crowd stood four people.

Two of them were the disciples from Tianchi Mountain who had previously been with Li Xiaotian.

Ling Xiao didn’t kill them, as it was unnecessary.

They had no feud with him and posed no threat.

As for going back to call for reinforcements, that was no concern; even without them, someone would inform Tianchi Mountain.

After all, Ling Xiao had publicly broadcast the killing of Li Xiaotian nationwide through a unique magical treasure.

Besides these two, there were two others.

One was very unfamiliar but bore some resemblance to Li Xiaotian.

The other was Chen Cangxiong.

Now, Chen Cangxiong had completely mastered the essence of the Sword of Kings, and coupled with the nurturing from Tianchi Mountain, had broken through his cultivation level.

Despite having the similar cultivation level to Li Xiaotian now, his strength was far superior.

“Senior Brother, let me avenge Senior Brother Xiaotian.”

Chen Cangxiong no longer had the past fear of Ling Xiao, understanding that fleeing to Tianchi Mountain was because of his fear of Ling Xiao.

But now, he believed his strength far surpassed Ling Xiao, thus returning for vengeance.

Be it avenging Li Xiaotian or the Chen Royal Family, he would handle it!

“Hmm, with your strength, it should be easy to kill him, but do not underestimate your opponent, alright?”

The strongest expert from Tianchi Mountain said lightly.

“Understood!”

Even before this person, Chen Cangxiong had to remain respectful.

He cupped his hands and then leaped onto the arena.

“Senior Brother Xiaofeng, that Ling Xiao isn’t an easy opponent; his strength is exceptionally strong, capable of killing Senior Brother Xiaotian. You shouldn’t just consider his cultivation level.”

The remaining two disciples from Tianchi Mountain said anxiously.

Li Xiaofeng was Li Xiaotian’s elder brother.

He shared a bloodline connection!

With Li Xiaotian killed, Li Xiaofeng naturally couldn’t refrain from coming.

He was an inner sect disciple of Tianchi Mountain, possessing peak cultivation of the Thirteenth Layer Hell, which would make Ling Xiao insignificant before him, even if Ling Xiao could challenge beyond his level.

“You must have been scared witless by Ling Xiao. Though he’s a genius who can challenge beyond his level, so can Chen Cangxiong.

While Xiaotian was my real brother, I must admit, Chen Cangxiong is indeed the real genius, capable of defeating those with Intermediate Stage of the Thirteenth Layer Hell’s cultivation.

Before him, Ling Xiao is merely a small fry!”

Li Xiaofeng said with disdain.

In the crowd, there was another group of people, led by the Thunder Emperor and Elder Cang.

Seeing Chen Cangxiong leap onto the arena, the two exchanged worried glances.

“My King, I’m afraid Little Fourteen may not be that person’s match?”

Elder Cang said.

“You’re mistaken. Little Fourteen’s aura rivals that of this King, likely due to great enhancements from Tianchi Mountain. Though slightly weaker, his strength is more than enough to kill Ling Xiao.

Let him kill Ling Xiao, and it’ll be easier for him to inherit this King’s position. Thanks to this Ling Xiao matter, I also need to train even harder.

The affairs of the court should be entrusted to Fourteen.”

Thunder Emperor’s aura was significantly stronger than before, clearly, his strength had greatly increased after his seclusion.

Within the crowd, there were many familiar faces to Ling Xiao.

Such as Chen Buyi, Heiye Wuxing, Lin Ruoxian, among others.

They had come to cheer for Ling Xiao.

Also, there was a graceful silhouette, staying far from the crowd, alone sitting on a tree, veiled by a bamboo hat that hid her visage.

Even so, her unmatched beauty couldn’t be concealed.

“Ling Xiao, I have returned, made it just in time.”

Beneath the hat, the voice belonged to Yue Fanghua, the reincarnation of Moon Lady.

However, at this moment, Ling Xiao wasn’t distracted by the distant crowd.

Because Chen Cangxiong jumping onto the arena exuded an aura that excited him.

In terms of martial skills, Chen Cangxiong probably wouldn’t lose to Ling Xiao.

In terms of cultivation, Chen Cangxiong surpassed him.

The strength of both was closely matched.

Despite their cultivation level, both at the First Cycle of Yin-Yang Realm Thirteenth Layer Hell Early Stage,

The aura released by Chen Cangxiong was evidently stronger than Li Xiaotian’s.

A worthy opponent!

Ling Xiao laughed!

He hoped to encounter such opponents because only then could his cultivation level rise more swiftly.

At this moment, all eyes were on them!

Countless people intensely watched the two young experts on the arena.

Their aura rapidly climbed, with visible energy expanding around their bodies, yet constantly revolving in close proximity.

However, Ling Xiao’s aura always seemed slightly inferior to Chen Cangxiong’s.

Whether it was intentional or truly inferior.

In any case, to the spectators, Ling Xiao was inferior to Chen Cangxiong.

After all, their aura originally conveyed this message to them.

Regarding combat experience, perhaps Chen Cangxiong, the Flying Eagle God of Killing, was stronger.
