I Have A Qi Fortune Altar.
Chapter 327 - 327 232 news spreads Jiu Yuan shakes

Chapter 327: Chapter 232 news spreads, Jiu Yuan shakes! Chapter 327: Chapter 232 news spreads, Jiu Yuan shakes! Listening to Chen Yuan’s icy words, the six Reach Profound Martial Artists looked at each other, none daring to step forward like the middle-aged man did earlier, fearing that they too would be killed with a single punch.

The one who had stepped forward was already one of the stronger among them, yet he was still killed by a single punch from Chen Yuan. They felt that if they went up, their fate would likely not be much better.

It wasn’t worth it for just a little benefit.

Seeing that no one answered, Chen Yuan took a step forward, only twenty paces from the six men, and shouted sternly,

“If you don’t dare to come forward, get lost, or I will surely kill you all with my fist!”

Huang Yi felt that, facing six opponents and still daring to be so arrogant and presumptuous, there was probably no one else in all of Qingzhou who dared speak like Chen Yuan.

What was this?

This was power, this was strength!

With his recent achievements in battle, who dared to disobey him?

Sure enough, after hearing Chen Yuan’s words, although the crowd was somewhat frustrated, no one dared to retort and, with hands clasped and without a word, they turned around and left.

Once one did, others followed, and in a blink of an eye, all six Reach Profound experts fled.

A single word had dispersed the enemy!

This was where Chen Yuan’s current prestige stemmed from, and of course, it was mainly built on the shocking burst he had just displayed. No one knew whether Chen Yuan had more hidden strength.

Such a terrifyingly strong person was not someone they could afford to provoke.

As the few left, Chen Yuan withdrew his gaze and searched below; he was looking for the Qingyun Sword Sect disciples who had come with Gu Hao earlier. Since he had already offended them,

why not go all out.

Kill all except for Xiao Qingmu, that woman was to be kept to check the Sect Leader of the Qingyuan Sword Sect.

Regretfully, his gaze found none of them, even all the Qingyun Sword Sect disciples had vanished without a trace, which puzzled him.

Could the news of Gu Hao’s death have spread?

Impossible…

They were in the Primordial Void Realm, and there was no way to send messages out of there. Gu Hao had been smashed to death by him, and he hadn’t had time to leave any contingencies before he died.

However, after scanning the area again, he could only withdraw his gaze with a dark expression.

Glancing at Huang Yi, he summoned with one hand, and two round human heads were held in front of him by Gang Qi. He then loudly addressed the nearly thousand people below,

“Monk Jingxin of the Bright Temple and Gu Hao of the Qingyun Sword Sect dared to ambush a court-appointed official, committing a grave sin. They were executed today, they’re heads will hang in from the Heavenly Patrol Bureau in Nanling Prefecture City for three days as a warning to others!”

As his voice fell, those who were about to leave raised their heads to look at the two blood-drenched heads, shocked by Chen Yuan’s boldness. Two core disciples from top powers,

geniuses among the top fifty of the Hidden Dragon List, were killed just like that.

Completely disregarding the consequences, that was truly audacious.

Observing the silent moment below, followed by a scene of buzzing discussions, Chen Yuan withdrew his gaze, satisfied. He made this public accusation so boldly firstly because he couldn’t hide it, and it was better to use it to intimidate others, letting them know exactly what kind of person he was. Secondly, it was to exculpate Huang Yi, taking on the pressure from the Qingyun Sword Sect all by himself!

Huang Yi didn’t have the ability to withstand such top powers, but he did!

With Jiang He and the imperial backing, not to mention a Dan Talisman containing the power of a strike from Jiang He, Chen Yuan felt very confident.

To be precise, what Huang Yi dared not do, he dared; whom Huang Yi dared not kill, he dared kill!

Huang Yi took a deep breath and looked at Chen Yuan with a hint of admiration in his eyes, clearly understanding Chen Yuan’s intentions.

He had gained fame, but it also brought him great danger.

With his capacity, it indeed was insufficient.

Did he really think that just by being a court-appointed official, he could act with impunity?

If so, then there wouldn’t be so many who died in the line of duty every year. Many people just didn’t dare to act openly, so as not to embarrass the court and could only act in outrage.

Behind the scenes, a mere Patrol Envoy really wasn’t regarded by some top forces.

The Black Robe Saintess cast a glance at Chen Yuan’s figure, her gaze flickering, thinking to herself that this man was truly exceptional, and they might meet again in the future.

Then, it would likely be a situation where swords were drawn.

Shaking her head slightly, she left silently through the sky, not interacting with anyone. If not for Chen Yuan’s slight attention on her, he probably wouldn’t have noticed her departure.

Regarding this mysterious woman, he was undeniably cautious.

The Black Robe Saintess didn’t care about Chen Yuan driving away the Reach Profound experts, but the ordinarily looking young man couldn’t dismiss it so lightly. After pondering for a moment, he approached Chen Yuan a bit and clasped his hands, saying,

“Loose Cultivator Han Yu, thanks to Patrol Envoy Chen for the rescue.”

Coming out of his reverie, Chen Yuan looked the man up and down carefully, smiled, and said,

“It’s a trivial matter, not worth mentioning.”

He had only seen this guy twice, once before entering the Primordial Void Realm and once after it ended. He didn’t know where he had hidden, but such seemingly harmless people were generally not so simple.

Therefore, forming a good relationship wasn’t a bad idea.

After exchanging names, the two chatted for a bit. Han Yu then suggested parting ways, and Chen Yuan did not insist he stay, watching as he left. The fact that the other was a Loose Cultivator made him consider the idea of recruitment.

But since they had only just met, it wasn’t appropriate to mention such things. Moreover, Chen Yuan’s current official rank was only that of a Heavenly Patrol Envoy; what could he possibly have to offer that would make the other want to join him?

The man seemed only a bit older than him, his talent enough to be considered astonishing…. Such people often carried an air of pride, making them difficult to subdue.

Falling from the void, Chen Yuan, with a calm expression, glanced at Zhao Beishan and others, asking, “Where are the Qingyun Sword Sect disciples who came with Gu Hao before?”

Before entering, Chen Yuan had instructed them to keep a close watch on their movements.

Hearing this question, Yue Shan said with some shame: “My lord, just before the Primordial Void Secret Realm was about to open, chaos erupted here,

By the time it was quelled, those people from the Qingyun Sword Sect had… simply disappeared. However, I have already dispatched the Five Elements Ghost Child and a few other brothers to investigate.”

Hearing this, Chen Yuan’s expression darkened. The opening of the Primordial Void Realm’s portal coincided with when he and Gu Hao, accompanied by Monk Jingxin, had sparred. It seemed they indeed had a way to be informed of his movements.

Even the people from the Qingyun Sword Sect were aware. According to his knowledge, Gu Hao’s father was an elder of the Qingyun Sword Sect; there was a blood feud between him and Chen Yuan.

He feared… no, it was definite that they wouldn’t let things rest.

Even now, as he thought about it, it was likely that they were already on their way here.

At this thought, Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes and sneered coldly; since they were coming, he might as well make a bigger commotion!

Regarding Yue Shan and the others not keeping an eye on Xiao Qingmu, he didn’t blame them. After all, no one could control such sudden chaos, and the news of Gu Hao’s death spreading was also beyond his expectation.

Besides, even if they had watched him, what could they have done?

Xiao Qingmu was a Reach Profound Level expert; even if Yue Shan and the others teamed up, they would have just been throwing their lives away, unable to even defend themselves. However, this did not mean he was going to let the other party off.

After a moment of silence, Chen Yuan sought out Huang Yi, hoping he could rally all controllable forces in the state and thoroughly track down Xiao Qingmu’s whereabouts.

Huang Yi readily agreed to this request.

…

…

That day, after the Primordial Void Realm had ended, Chen Yuan returned to the Heavenly Patrol Bureau at the invitation, receiving unprecedented enthusiasm from Huang Yi, as if he was treating an elder official.

The heads of Gu Hao and Monk Jingxin were hung in front of the Heavenly Patrol Bureau, and the events that transpired inside the realm buzzed throughout the place.

In essence, the tales centered on several points: that Chen Yuan, known as the Demon Sword, truly displayed his formidable prowess by not only killing two core disciples from top sects but also boldly displaying their heads in front of the bureau for all to see.

And considering Gu Hao and Monk Jingxin were top-tier talents from the Hidden Dragon List, ranked higher than Chen Yuan, how did they both fall by his hand?

Was it a direct and brutal fight?

Or could it be that the information from Ascending Immortal Tower was inaccurate, either because Chen Yuan was too strong, or Gu Hao and Monk Jingxin were overrated?

After much contemplation, many leaned towards the idea that Chen Yuan’s strength had surpassed that of Gu Hao and others. This could be seen from how he had punched a Reach Profound expert to death in full view of the public.

After all, the rankings of Gu Hao and Monk Jingxin weren’t arbitrarily assigned; they had fought their way up, and their combat records could not be faked.

As for the true extent of Chen Yuan’s abilities, various speculations arose about just what level his strength had reached. Simultaneously, bets were placed on this astonishing record.

The Hidden Dragon List would bestow what ranking upon Chen Yuan.

Would he soar… or take over Monk Jingxin’s previous spot at the thirty-sixth position?

It was only the first day, and by the second and third days, the news from the state had completely exploded, spreading to other states, even threatening to sweep through Qingzhou.

Chen Yuan could be said to have stepped over two fallen men, advancing significantly forward.

Before, his reputation mostly confined to Nanling Prefecture, but this time things were different….

And as the story grew more and more intense, Chen Yuan left the state. Specifically, after nearly two days of recuperation, he departed.

The heads of Gu Hao and Monk Jingxin were burned to ashes in front of many onlookers by him.

There were several reasons for his departure: one being that even after a massive search across the entire state, Xiao Qingmu’s whereabouts remained unfound,

Staying longer would have been a waste of effort.

Moreover, with the news becoming so prominent, Bright Temple and the Qingyun Sword Sect were no doubt hastening to this location. Staying would only harm the innocent.

Furthermore, him destroying a prefecture city and making the Heavenly Patrol Bureau of the entire State suffer were unlikely to be actions they would dare take. So, he thought it best to give them that opportunity!

————

The betting contest has started again!

Guess what rank Chen Yuan will reach this time; a 6.66 yuan red envelope awarded to the one who guesses right. There will be no false changes, as I’ve already written the next chapter.

No need to worry about a few yuan changing things. Rest assured on that point.

By the way, only the first correct guess counts, not because of anything else, but mainly because the author is too poor, earning just a few thousand yuan a month…
