Chapter 925: Chapter 897: The World of the Survival of the Fittest

Looking at the few people who suddenly appeared in front of him, Ji Changfeng couldn’t help but feel a bit panicked.

Although Li Chen was very strong, he was still just one person.

And according to Li Chen himself, these mysterious strong individuals were all Profound Level experts?

What on earth was going on?

Who exactly were these people?

"Chang Feng, when the fight breaks out, you should escape immediately. I’ll create an opportunity for you," Li Chen quietly conveyed to Ji Changfeng.

"Huh? What about you, Brother Cheen?" Ji Changfeng couldn’t help but look at Li Chen with some worry.

"I’ll be fine," Li Chen gently shook his head. "These few guys can’t stop me. But, I don’t know if they have other plans prepared, so it’s better for you to leave as soon as possible."

"But wouldn’t that mean, Brother Cheen, you are..."

"Enough! Listen to me. I will create an opportunity for you soon, just leave this place quickly. My mission here is to help you. I owe Elder Ji a big favor now, and you staying here will actually hinder my performance!" Li Chen’s voice became more solemn.

"Alright... alright then." Ji Changfeng nodded reluctantly in agreement.

He also knew that Li Chen was telling the truth.

If these people really were all Profound Level experts, then he truly couldn’t contribute, and staying would only hinder Li Chen’s performance.

After all, his current strength was still only at the Yellow Rank, completely unable to intervene in a battle between Profound Level experts.

If someone wanted to use him against Li Chen, Li Chen would be put in a passive position instead.

Looking at the people in front of him, Li Chen’s eyes slightly narrowed.

These people were clearly not intercepting them in haste; they were clearly well-prepared.

So, who exactly wanted to make a move against him?

"Friend, you took the Barrier-Breaking Pill and are leaving the marketplace so soon? Isn’t that inappropriate?" One of the Profound Level Advanced Stage experts smiled as he spoke to Li Chen.

At this moment, Li Chen’s expression appeared exceptionally calm, facing five Profound Level experts. There wasn’t a trace of fear on his face: "Where I go, is it up to you to decide? Since when did the marketplace people have such broad authority?"

This sentence from Li Chen was a probe, and at the same time, a disguise.

The term ’marketplace people’ was used quite vaguely but also served to confirm Li Chen’s suspicions.

Sure enough, after hearing Li Chen’s words, the expressions of the few people changed simultaneously.

"How did you know?" one person spoke up first.

"Just as expected," Li Chen internally sneered.

"It seems that the legendary Market Owner isn’t as detached as everyone says," Li Chen said, lightly shaking his head. "How I know isn’t something you need to worry about. You only need to know that since you’ve chosen to block my way, you’d better be prepared."

"Prepared?" Another person sized up Li Chen and laughed lightly: "What preparation? Do you think you can handle the five of us Profound Level experts alone? Do you really think you’re an Earth Level expert?"

However, at that moment, Li Chen laughed.

Seeing Li Chen’s smile, for some unknown reason, a sense of foreboding rose in the hearts of the present Profound Level experts.

Among the five Profound Level experts intercepting Li Chen, three were at the Mysterious Level Intermediate Stage, and the other two at the Mysterious Level Advanced Stage.

Such a lineup to intercept just one person like Li Chen was quite luxurious indeed.

But for some reason, at the moment Li Chen smiled, all five felt a chill in their hearts.

Because within that smile was a deadly intent they had never felt before... a fierce killing intent!

"How could one person alone possess such terrifying killing intent? Just how many people has this guy killed?" The two Mysterious Level Advanced Stage experts couldn’t help but be shocked within.

During the previous contests, they had also observed Li Chen’s battles.

In their observation, while Li Chen was powerful, he often held back, never using a true killer move against opponents.

Therefore, in their minds, they considered Li Chen a compassionate person, one who possessed mighty strength but would not easily kill.

Yet at this moment, the killing intent emanating from Li Chen completely changed their perception.

How could a compassionate person possess such terrifying killing intent?

To Li Chen, it was clear these people came with ill intentions.

In Li Chen’s mind, people were judged in a few ways. And once he deemed someone an enemy, he would show no mercy.

Against enemies, Li Chen never had the habit of holding back.

Destroy the root, or it will regrow with the spring wind!

"Since they are enemies, then..."

"Swoosh——"

A swift wind flashed past, and the Profound Level Intermediate Stage expert who was previously mocking Li Chen suddenly found himself powerless and slowly fell over.

The others looked at him with shock.

A gaping hole had mysteriously appeared in his left chest.

There was where his heart was.

And now, it was empty.

"Now, Chang Feng, run!"

While the others were still stunned, Li Chen’s voice suddenly exploded in Ji Changfeng’s ear.

Also stunned, Ji Changfeng snapped back to reality, cast a complex glance at Li Chen, then swiftly turned and sprinted towards safety.

As he ran, it was as if something dawned on him.

What he used to think was far too simplistic.

This was truly a world where the strong preyed on the weak.

Even the gentle and kind Brother Li Chen he saw could transform into a God of Slaughter in the face of foes.

It wasn’t Li Chen’s fault, for this world was naturally like that.

"I... must... become stronger!!" As he ran, a flame burst brightly within Ji Changfeng’s chest.

"You... die for me!!"

After one of them was abruptly killed by Li Chen, the remaining ones, now furious, attacked him without hesitation.

The strength of these individuals was indeed considerable.

It could be seen that their strength was steadily cultivated, with very solid foundations.

But unfortunately, what they encountered was Li Chen.

"Is this all your strength, and you want me to die?" Li Chen sneered coldly.
