Chapter 402: Chapter 402: This Kid is No Good!

Lu Chen’s pupils contracted as he horizontally placed the Heavenly Inquiry Spear before him!

"Crack!"

The sound of ice shattering rang out as the ice ring struck the Heavenly Inquiry Spear with precision, instantly breaking into little ice fragments!

"Such fast speed and reaction!"

The man in white was greatly shocked. There weren’t a few who could dodge his ice ring, and there were also not a few who could block it!

But to block it completely with a spear as thin as two fingers, like Lu Chen did, he was the only one!

Was it because of outstanding skill and courage, or just a coincidence?

No matter how he pondered, he couldn’t imagine that his swift attack appeared as slow as a snail in Lu Chen’s eyes!

Seeing the other party so shocked, Lu Chen knew he had frightened him, so he came up with an idea and said indifferently, "How should I address this senior brother? Why greet me in such a unique manner?"

"Interesting," the man in white came back to his senses, looked at Lu Chen, and said, "My name is Yu Zhibai, are you a menial disciple from the outer sect?"

Lu Chen raised his eyebrows, "How does senior brother come to think of junior brother as a menial disciple?"

"Pretending to be ignorant," Yu Zhibai laughed, "Junior brother is not dressed in the Path-protecting Clothes of an Inner Sect Disciple, hence senior brother mistook you for a menial disciple."

With such a demeanor, and the faint presence of his fiery power, Yu Zhibai guessed something.

"Junior brother Lu Chen, I am the respected disciple of the Ninth Elder, pleased to meet senior brother Yu!"

Lu Chen was straightforward in revealing his identity.

"Unexpected, that the Ninth Elder would accept such an exceptional and splendid disciple. Seems like the bitter times are over," Yu Zhibai was somewhat surprised, but he spoke appropriately, obviously a cut above the ordinary.

"Senior brother Yu is too courteous, it’s just that junior brother and my master have a good fortune," Lu Chen replied.

"Junior brother Lu," Yu Zhibai said, "why did you have a dispute with these Inner Sect Disciples, stirring their righteous indignation and leading them to attack you? It caused your senior brother to think there was an intruder from another sect mingled within, and I nearly mistook junior brother for an enemy and harmed you."

He discovered that Lu Chen was extraordinary and naturally intended to get closer, as the selection event was related to the Haotian Secret Realm.

Most were from second-rate sects, within which...

There was bound to be murder and robbery. He could see Lu Chen was heading towards the entrance array, and naturally assumed Lu Chen was the third predetermined candidate.

And Lu Chen had also pinpointed this very fact!

He smiled slightly and said, "These senior brothers were bullying junior brother who just joined yesterday. It’s not like junior brother could just cower and squat down, letting them humiliate me, right?"

"That makes sense," Yu Zhibai turned to look and his gaze suddenly frosted over while the temperature around also rapidly dropped.

Before Lu Chen could react, Yu Zhibai abruptly opened his folding fan, and a tremendous surge of Ice Spiritual Power gushed out in an instant!

"Thousand-Mile Ice Seal!"

In that moment.

The ice power swiftly descended, immediately engulfing them all!

In just the blink of an eye, their eyebrows, beards, and hats were covered with a thick layer of frost!

In another blink.

The crowd had already been frozen into ice sculptures!

Lu Chen secretly used the Hateful Heaven Pupil Technique and could discern that these people were not in mortal danger.

It seemed that within the sect, fights were not forbidden, but random killing was.

Yu Zhibai, who was not a direct disciple of the nine Grand Elders,

also had to follow this rule.

"Junior brother Lu, this senior brother overstepped and taught these people a lesson for you, you wouldn’t blame senior brother, would you?"

Yu Zhibai lightly shook his folding fan, a smile on his face, a stark contrast to his previously frosty, pale demeanor.

Lu Chen chuckled, "Junior brother still needs to thank senior brother. Had junior brother taken action, I might have not controlled my strength properly and could’ve caused serious harm."

Yu Zhibai nodded and said, "Senior brother feared just that, let’s move on."

"Of course," Lu Chen was extremely courteous, "Thank you again, senior brother. In the future at the Casting Gear Pavilion, please take good care of me!"

Lu Chen was cunning like a fox.

From every action and word of Yu Zhibai’s, he slowly gauged his prestige among the younger generation.

With just a gesture, he subjected so many disciples, including the Second and Third Disciples of the Grand Elder, to discipline.

It was clear that the Casting Gear Pavilion was far from being as simple as he had imagined.

If such a person could be used properly, he did not mind becoming friends.

However, just as they were approaching the entrance array, they encountered another pair!

Li Chengming followed behind a woman in black, speaking in a fawning tone.

But when Li Chengming saw Lu Chen and Yu Zhibai together, his expression immediately changed.

"Senior brother Yu, this kid is no good!"

He immediately started slandering Lu Chen!
