Chapter 1865: Chapter 1885: Play with him, but don’t hit too hard!_1

Dugu Potian, as the sect master of the North Profound Sect, one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, holds a prestigious status. He can be considered as one of the most esteemed figures in the entire Thunderbolt Immortal Domain. When has anyone ever audaciously humiliated him and the entire North Profound Sect to their faces like this?

Flushed with anger, Dugu Potian retorts, "Xuanyuan Feiying, let’s have a duel, and I’ll show you what I’m capable of!"

Xuanyuan Feiying shakes his head indifferently, "Indeed, you are quite strong, but it’s merely up to this extent. Yang Zuoshi is good enough to deal with you, not everyone has the privilege to fight against me."

Pausing a bit, Xuanyuan Feiying adds, "To be precise, there are very few people in this Immortal Domain who are worth for me to take action personally, I can probably count them on one hand. You, Dugu Potian, are obviously not among them."

Dugu Potian’s face turns ashen, but he surprisingly calms down instead.

Being in charge of the North Profound Sect, he is certainly not an impulsive, brainless person.

Why did Lin Chen remain aloof before, but suddenly intervened at a critical moment when Yang Mengqi proposed five duels targeted at him, pointing directly at the Heavenly Dao Alliance?

Obviously, the Immortal Palace figured out that the North Profound Sect wouldn’t be able to resist the Heavenly Dao Alliance with its current strength. If they agreed to the duels, the North Profound Sect would inevitably lose and lose face in front of the world. Therefore, the Immortal Palace had to intervene urgently.

Xuanyuan Feiying was so arrogant, it clearly showed that it was not a bluff, he was truly strong!

Following Xuanyuan Feiying’s words, Yang Mengqi turns to Dugu Potian and asks, "Now that the misunderstanding between the Heavenly Dao Alliance and the Immortal Palace has been cleared up, shall we continue with the previous matter? The Heavenly Dao Alliance believes that the North Profound Sect is no longer qualified to be among the Ten Great Immortal Sects, thus we challenge you. If you lose, you will obediently renounce the sect and get lost!"

Dugu Potian has completely cooled down and asks solemnly, "But what if you lose?"

Yang Mengqi laughs, "We won’t lose, but to make the gambling fair, we have put our winning stakes, you can also put your winning stakes for this bet!"

Just when Dugu Potian was about to answer, Lin Chen suddenly said, "The North Profound Sect won’t accept this bet."

Yang Mengqi freezes for a moment, he didn’t expect that with Dugu Potian being cornered to this extent, Lin Chen, the special envoy from Immortal Palace would refuse for him!

Isn’t this a tremendous loss of face in public?

Yang Mengqi sneers, "Special Envoy Lin, our challenge to the North Profound Sect by the Heavenly Dao Alliance seems to have nothing to do with the Immortal Palace, right? Dugu Potian, I heard that the North Profound Sect is a loyal follower of the Immortal Palace. But as one of the Ten Great Immortal Sects, is this all the strength and courage you have? You don’t even dare to accept the challenge. Did your sect earn its status among the Ten Great Immortal Sects by flattering the Immortal Palace?"

Fire flashes in Dugu Potian’s eyes, he is about to fight back, but Lin Chen calmly speaks, "Most of the powerhouses in the North Profound Sect are guarding the sect and are not here. But you came fully prepared, intend to use five personal duels to decide the fate of hundreds of thousands of disciples of the North Profound Sect. Dugu Potian may be the sect master, but I think he can’t take this responsibility."

"If you of the Heavenly Dao Alliance believe that you have the strength to replace the North Profound Sect, why not bring your experts to the North Profound Sect for a battle in the future and see if you have the strength to replace the North Profound Sect!"

The spectators originally felt that refusing the duel was somewhat humiliating, but upon hearing Lin Chen’s words, they found it quite reasonable.

The Ten Great Immortal Sects attending the Tianxuan Martial Arts Contest, it’s more of a formality. After all, doesn’t everyone know whether there would be someone challenging the Ten Great Immortal Sects?

In such a situation, isn’t it only natural for the powerhouses to stay in their sects to guard?

Heavenly Dao Alliance’s intention of winning the longstanding foundation of the North Profound Sect with five fights indeed seems like an ambush.

Lin Chen also put it clearly. If you really have the capability, lead your experts, overcome the North Profound Sect and take control of it. By then, the North Profound Sect would naturally be yours.

There’s merit and reasoning in what he said!

Dugu Potian looks at Lin Chen with gratitude. If he had said these words himself, it would have appeared as if he was weakening his own momentum. However, it didn’t harm the dignity of the North Profound Sect with Lin Chen speaking for him.

Here, there’s a hundred percent chance that the North Profound Sect will lose. But when they are in their own territory of the North Profound Sect - with various large arrays and a large number of strong people in the sect, they truly have no fear of the attack from the Heavenly Dao Alliance!

Even if we take a step back - even if all the powerhouses of the Heavenly Dao Alliance do come out and eventually overrun the North Profound Sect, the Heavenly Dao Alliance would certainly pay a heavy price. Under these circumstances, whether they would dare to attack aggressively is another question.

Yang Mengqi’s gaze falls on Lin Chen and he thinks to himself, before Weijiao had repeatedly said that this kid is a thorn in the flesh, hard to deal with. Now, he sees it for himself. It’s indeed like this!

This kid might have mediocre strength and could probably be slain by him with a single palm, but flaunting the title of special envoy from the Immortal Palace, he firstly went against Weijiao and now, he has inventively helped the North Profound Sect find enough excuses to refuse the Heavenly Dao Alliance’s challenge.

Yang Mengqi turns his gaze towards Xuanyuan Feiying. With the situation having developed to this point, he also needs Xuanyuan Feiying to make a decision.

Xuanyuan Feiying takes a good look at Lin Chen and smiles, "If you don’t want to gamble, then so be it. It’s better to be cautious with the eternal fortune. But, seeing Dugu Potian being so keen on battling, Yang Zuoshi, you can play with him to satisfy him. But be gentle, remember he is the sect master of the North Profound Sect and needs to save some face..."
