Qin Aotian?
Xiao Chen turned around and saw that it was the Golden Dragon Race cultivator whom he had seen a few days ago.
Based on this person's tone, it seemed like he had a high status in the Golden Dragon Palace. He might even be somewhat famous in the Divine Dragon Empire. He seemed to think that as long as he reported his name, he could easily resolve many things.
Xiao Chen observed this person's attire and his inherited Dao Tools. Clearly, this person was very confident in saying these words.
If another person said similar words, others would only treat that person as an idiot. However, this person spoke as though they were logical, as though this was what was supposed to happen. As long as he reported his name, others had to do what he said.
I, Qin Aotian, owe you a favor. In the future, you can come to the Golden Dragon Palace to claim it.
Unfortunately, Xiao Chen had not heard of this person before. In reality, he did not know many people in the Divine Dragon Empire.
Xiao Chen paid more attention to something else—how this person had managed to stay silently by his side for so long.
This person should have already planned this and watched for a long time. He did indeed have some strength for Xiao Chen not to have discovered him.
However, this was mainly due to Xiao Chen's attention being focused on the Blazing Sun Berserk Ape. After all, after the Blazing Sun Berserk Ape went berserk, its casual strike could severely injure him. He did not have much scope for distraction.
"What's wrong? You are not willing?"
Qin Aotian frowned unhappily. A trace of anger flashed across his face.
Xiao Chen thought for a while."This mission is worth eight thousand Primeval Heavenly Pills. I also do not know the price of failing the mission. If you give me eight thousand Primeval Heavenly Pills and personally write a note that you will bear the price of failure, I can let you have it."
Xiao Chen felt that what he said, something he had deliberated over for a while, was sufficiently sincere. After all, he did not necessarily need the Blazing Sun Berserk Ape's Beast Core.
As long as the other party could satisfy his conditions, he did not mind giving it up.
"You want to negotiate conditions with me?"
Anger flared in Qin Aotian's eyes. Then, five different colored Dao disks appeared behind him. A layered Dao Might spread out in the world.
There vaguely seemed to be a vast and boundless nation behind Qin Aotian, which pushed his aura to an untouchable level.
The two clearly were looking straight at each other. However, Xiao Chen got the impression that he was looking up at Qin Aotian.
Xiao Chen's expression did not change. He answered calmly, "Naturally. If I do not negotiate conditions, how am I going to give you the Blazing Sun Berserk Ape's Beast Core? I will not take advantage of you, but you have to make up for my losses, at least."
"I gave you face, but you are not taking it. This young master already said that I would owe you a favor, and you are still negotiating conditions?!"
Qin Aotian immediately turned hostile. Xiao Chen's unwillingness to just hand the Beast Core over to him enraged him."Scram aside!"
Qin Aotian punched, and a five-colored fist wind—containing the Great Dao Energies of the Ice Dao, Fire Dao, Thunder Dao, Wind Dao, and Light Dao—descended on Xiao Chen.
When Xiao Chen saw this, he could not help laughing hoarsely. This was just some superficial tricks. While it looked mighty, in reality, there was no focus.
This move was mighty when used against an ordinary person or a ferocious beast.
However, anyone who had attained Small Perfection with their Great Dao Energy—even someone like Xiao Jinyu—would be able to deal with this attack.
As for Xiao Chen, it was even easier for him.
Holding the Tyrant Saber, Xiao Chen quickly brought it in front of him with the scabbard resting on the ground.
As Xiao Chen looked at the descending fist wind, his expression remained extremely calm. When the dense fist light containing many Great Dao Energies landed, Xiao Chen's saber intent erupted. Strands of saber Qi appeared without warning, continuously shooting out from his physical body.
"Dang! Dang! Dang! Dang!"
The saber Qi scattered the thousands of attacking fist lights. They did not injure Xiao Chen at all. More accurately, they did not even get within one hundred meters of Xiao Chen.
A faint, azure Dao disk flickered behind Xiao Chen, looking peaceful like the wind and his calm heart.
Xiao Chen was neither arrogant nor impatient, completely composed.
"Young Master Qin, do not push things too far, " Xiao Chen said indifferently as he looked at the other party.
Anger rushed to Qin Aotian's head. Given the scene before him, Xiao Chen's words were clearly threatening him.
"You mixed-blood dragon! To think that you dare to threaten me! Don't blame me for being ruthless. Emperor Dragon Fist! A vast ruler's grace!"
The golden Dragon Qi circling Qin Aotian gathered into one strand and soared into the clouds. It turned into an Emperor Might filling the sky, lingering there.
Then, Qin Aotian punched.
The punch containing tyrannical Emperor Might flew towards Xiao Chen. It was as if the vast Divine Dragon Empire had turned into a towering ship. This punch activated the gears in this massive ship, producing a lot of creaking as the fist wind moved an empire.
This person is a relative of the Golden Dragon Race's Dragon Emperor!
Xiao Chen felt startled. In other words, this person was like a dynasty's prince or monarch with the royal clan's bloodline.
Is he the Dragon God Crown Prince?
That can't be. If the Dragon God Crown Prince were this pompous, then the Divine Dragon Empire's ruler would definitely not be the Golden Dragon Race.
Perhaps anyone of the Golden Dragon Race can use the Dragon Might of the empire? That is possible. After all, the Golden Dragons all have the same bloodline. As long as one has the Golden Dragon bloodline, they would have some relation to the Dragon Emperor.
However, no matter who you are, since you are not willing to agree to my conditions, then stop pestering me.
Xiao Chen would not take the initiative to cause trouble. However, he did not fear trouble. If others tried to bully him, he would not be polite to them.
Firmament's Rage!
When Xiao Chen saw that vast empire surging towards him, he did not even think before executing Firmament's Rage.
"Boom!"
Ancient Dragon Might from the Great Desolate Eon appeared in the sky, tearing through the clouds like it was the firmament's rage.
The rage from a Great Desolate Eon Ancestor Dragon surged in Xiao Chen's body as he launched a palm strike.
Then, Xiao Chen gave vent to this boundless rage.
A colossal, burning hand covered half the sky as Xiao Chen smashed his palm down.
"Rumble... !"
The colossal palm shattered the incorporeal empire. The saber Qi of the five fingers tore the empire apart, shredding it to pieces. Then, the lightning that quickly followed blasted the pieces into nothing.
In the blink of an eye, the vague force of the Divine Dragon Empire with boundless Emperor Might disappeared.
This flabbergasted Qin Aotian, stunning him.
"How is this possible?!"
Not wanting to waste time with Qin Aotian, Xiao Chen soared into the air and drew his Tyrant Saber. The startling saber intent spread across the sky.
Knowing that the dragon robes that Qin Aotian wore were an inherited Dao Tool, Xiao Chen directly used his strongest Saber Technique, Resolving the Mundane.
Xiao Chen wanted to end this battle and chase this person away with one saber strike.
Resolving the mundane heart, cutting off the six desires. Only I remain eternal. The emotions of the mundane world instantly vanished from Xiao Chen's face.
Xiao Chen's cold and stern face was like a blank sheet of white paper. It was not that he was cold, but it caused others to feel an extreme chill in their hearts.
An eternal saber light landed and immediately shattered the dragon-patterned shield around Qin Aotian's body.
However, something unexpected happened. The force quickly rebounded. It was Xiao Chen's own Resolving the Mundane.
"Boom!"
This pushed Xiao Chen back and caused him to vomit blood. He fell to the ground on one knee. He looked pale and in a sorry state.
"You are truly a mixed-blood dragon indeed. To think that you have not even heard of my Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit. How pitiful!"
The attack knocked Qin Aotian back fifty kilometers, but he was not injured. A mocking expression appeared on his face, his eyes brimming with the pride and pity of an expert.
Xiao Chen wiped away the blood on his lips and revealed a smile. Somehow, this smile flustered Qin Aotian's heart.
"You are still not going to scram? Emperor Dragon Fist, Ruling the World!"
Qin Aotian did not want to prattle on. This punch was extraordinarily fast. It descended from the sky like an emperor arriving, radiating a supreme Dragon Might.
The vast Dragon Might suddenly appeared above Xiao Chen's head, locking down on the surroundings and causing ripples in space. This obstructed his Movement Techniques.
Qin Aotian infused his Holy Venerate Will into this punch. Furthermore, this punch was extraordinarily fast. If struck, Xiao Chen would be in dire straits.
However, while Qin Aotian was fast, Xiao Chen was even faster!
The instant Qin Aotian punched, Xiao Chen turned into a bolt of lightning and landed on a distant mountain summit.
"Boom!"
The punch missed and blasted a city-sized hole in the ground. Even the dirt was crushed into powder.
Qin Aotian looked at Xiao Chen on the distant mountain summit. Then, he said coldly, "I have the Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit. You cannot possibly break through my defenses. You have no chance of winning. If you leave now, I will take it as nothing happened."
"Is that so?"
Xiao Chen took out the Soul Slayer Bow and aimed it at Qin Aotian.
"Is that any use?"
Qin Aotian showed a disdainful smile. The Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit had another set of formations that dealt with long-distance attacks, so he was not afraid.
A clump of Heart Flame ignited, and the arrow streaked off like a meteor, instantly striking Qin Aotian.
"Bang!"
Blood leaked out of Qin Aotian's mouth. He gaped at the broken barrier and the arrow stabbed into his chest, flabbergasted.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Before Qin Aotian understood what happened, Xiao Chen fired a barrage of arrows. The Golden Dragon Race young master immediately looked like a pincushion, bristled with arrows.
The Heart Flame—the simplified Heart Force—completely ignored the defenses of Qin Aotian's Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit. He could not understand at all what had happened.
Qin Aotian felt so much pain that he would rather have died. The previously arrogant young master no longer dared to show his temper.
His internal organs were injured. A ring with an aqueous-blue gem released a gentle light.
This ring tried to heal Qin Aotian's injuries. However, they were too severe, and he would not be able to recover quickly.
"Whoosh!"
A lightning bolt descended from the sky. It was Xiao Chen landing in front of Qin Aotian and revealing himself.
"You!"
Qin Aotian stretched out his hand and pointed at Xiao Chen. Before he could say another word, Xiao Chen kicked him into the air.
Then, Xiao Chen vaulted forward and started pulling out the arrows stuck in Qin Aotian's body.
Every time Xiao Chen extracted an arrow, Qin Aotian squealed in pain, sounding like a tortured pig. Xiao Chen did not care about the sound, continuing until he had collected all of the arrows.
"I have indeed not seen the Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit before. I shall take it back and properly study it. I won't thank you, then."
With a wave of his hand, Xiao Chen removed the glittering, golden battle suit and put it in his storage ring.
"You shameless person! That is the battle suit that my big brother gave me! I, Qin Aotian, will not let you off. I swear it!" Qin Aotian howled in pain, pointing at Xiao Chen with a trembling hand.
Xiao Chen looked at Qin Aotian, who looked like he was on the verge of collapse. Then, he shook his head slightly. Just be a young master at home. Why come out and take risks?
Doesn't he know that this world is very dangerous?
Fortunately for him, he ran into me.
Pity flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes. Then, he walloped Qin Aotian in the face, mangling Qin Aotian's handsome features.
Qin Aotian fainted from the pain, his world going blank.
Xiao Chen then erased the Spiritual Mark in the Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit and placed his own Spiritual Mark. After that, he showed a satisfied smile.
This Dragon-Patterned Battle Suit was indeed pretty good. It was worth studying.
