Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation-Novel2

Chapter 1022: Beat Up a Kid

The Mo Clan cultivators sucked in a breath of cold air. This attack was too much now. Even if Xiao Chen did not give Young Master Xing the secret, there was no need to be so ruthless.

Without his cultivation, it seemed like everyone thought that they could bully Xiao Chen. Even a peak Martial Monarch dared to attack him.

Xiao Chen kicked. No one saw how he kicked, but a ‘crunch’ came from the right knee cap of the servant that attacked him, and that servant let out an extremely tragic shriek of pain.

The Quintessence in that servant’s body turned chaotic, his mental state unstable. Then, he knelt on the deck on one knee.

A look of horror appeared in the eyes of the other servant. He was about to make a move but discovered that Xiao Chen’s palm had already pressed against his chest at some point in time.

Before that servant could react, Xiao Chen gently pushed, and the ribs of that servant cracked. Then, that servant flew back like a sandbag.

All this happened in the time it took for a spark to fly, so fast that no one could react. When the others fixed their gazes on Xiao Chen again, they realized that he was already at the entrance of the tavern, about to go out.

“Damn it. How dare you hurt the people of my Xing Clan? Are you tired of living?”

“Thud!”

Young Master Xing reacted, kicking a table into the air. Then, he instantly drew a sword flashing with cold light from his waist.

Strands of Heavenly Sage Laws appeared behind Young Master Xing, wildly absorbing the Spiritual Energy of the world. These made the move that he unleashed in anger appear very mighty.

From the looks for it, the attack was boundless and powerful, replete with killing intent.

This lightning-quick sword strike seemed like it would pierce through Xiao Chen’s back. Even if Xiao Chen did not die, he would be severely injured.

Suddenly, the walking Xiao Chen stopped. Then, he turned around. In that instant, all the possible trajectories of Young Master Xing’s attack appeared in his eyes.

In one instant, Xiao Chen simulated all the possible trajectories of this attack in his mind, considering thousands of possibilities. No matter how his opponent changed the move, everything was under his control.

“Whoosh!”

When the sword light was only seven or eight centimeters away from Xiao Chen, two fingers suddenly appeared and clamped Young Master Xing’s sword.

Just like that, Xiao Chen easily stopped the sword strike of an Inferior Grade Martial Sage as if Young Master Xing was a kid causing a commotion.

The cultivators in the tavern were so shocked that their jaws almost fell off. Was this still the strength of a Martial Monarch?

Was this still the same fellow that fell over on the deck in a miserable state like he was a joke seven days ago?

This sight completely surpassed the crowd’s imagination; it was something totally unacceptable to them.

“You!”

Young Master Xing, who was in the air, revealed an alarmed expression. He did his best to pull his sword out of Xiao Chen’s grip, but no matter what he did, he failed.

“Just over a small matter, you start attacking. It looks like you, a young master, are unaware of how high the skies are outside!”

Xiao Chen snorted coldly, and five Dragon Force roared from within his body, creating thunderous noises. A horrifying aura surged out from his body.

Xiao Chen’s clothes and hair fluttered wildly. Before he even unleashed his strength, the overwhelming aura of five Dragon Force shook Young Master Xing’s sword until it shattered. Then, Young Master Xing went flying back, vomiting blood.

After collapsing to the floor, Young Master Xing looked at Xiao Chen with a face filled with horror. He muttered, “A physical body Sage. You are an outstanding talent who became a Martial Sage through the physical body.”

There were still about five centimeters of the sword tip in Xiao Chen’s hand. Then, he glanced at Young Master Xing before he slowly withdrew his killing Qi.

In the end, Xiao Chen was not a bloodthirsty person. Such a minor character could not cause him much of a problem.

With a flick of Xiao Chen’s fingers, the sword tip flew out and stabbed into the deck beside Young Master Xing.

This startled Young Master Xing into trembling, his face drained of color.

He remained silent, unable to say anything. The entire tavern fell quiet.

The waiter who served wine to Xiao Chen earlier gaped, not knowing what to do. He had actually underestimated such a person, planning to watch the other party make a fool of himself.

This was someone who could casually toss Young Master Xing aside. If he had gotten angry earlier, he might have…

When the waiter thought this, cold sweat ran down his back.

“Damn, that startled me. This world is truly unpredictable. Just a Martial Monarch, and he is actually an outstanding talent that advanced to Sage through the physical body.”

“I already said, how could someone who could drink ten cups of Thousand Year Flame in one go be a minor character? The condition that the Young Miss set must have something more behind it.”

“What do you guys think? How would this person compare to the younger-generation demonic geniuses of the Shattered Cloud Sea? Do you think he is equal to the Shattered Cloud City’s Young City Lord?”

“Are you joking? Young Master Xing could still last three moves at the hands of the Young City Lord. However, he could not even block half a move of this person. Even taking the entire Cloud Sea Domain into consideration, there are no more than five people who can equal this person in the younger generation.”

The Mo Clan cultivators broke out in a lively discussion with everybody talking at once, unable to stop. They thought about how such a person suddenly appeared on their warship. If this person had malicious intentions, what kind of danger would they be in?

“Quickly, inform Steward Wang!”

Someone in the tavern immediately rushed over to Steward Wang’s location in a fluster.

---

Inside the purple warship’s control room, there were four Martial Sages of the Mo Clan, in addition to the peak Superior Grade Martial Sage Uncle Wang and Mo Chen. They all gathered as though a great enemy had appeared.

“Young Miss, this old man was blind. I did not expect that person to be an expert Sage of the physical body,” Uncle Wang said sullenly.

“Young Miss, please give the order. I am willing to chase this person away personally.”

An exquisite figure wore a veil over her face. This was Mo Chen, who was so beautiful that just one glance could intoxicate people. She did not seem surprised over this matter.

Mo Chen waved a smooth, exquisite, jade-white hand and said, “There is no need. This person should not have any malicious intent. Tell me what he did at the tavern first.”

Uncle Wang answered honestly, “He ordered ten cups of Thousand Year Flame and created the scene of ten suns chasing each other. Then, he drank all ten cups in one go.”

When Mo Chen heard this, a strange look flashed in her eyes. However, this look disappeared immediately after, as she regained her calm.

“After that, he inquired about the distribution of the Cloud Sea Domain’s factions from the waiter. He also asked about the strength of the rulers of our Shattered Cloud Sea as well as of our Mo Clan.”

“What is this person doing inquiring about our Mo Clan? With this person’s strength, would he care about a Rank 6 clan?” Mo Chen muttered to herself, feeling it was strange. Could it be that he figured something out?”

“As for the latter matters, Young Miss should be aware of them already. That Young Master Xing was almost drunk after just one cup of Thousand Year Flame. When he saw a person drinking ten cups in one go without getting drunk, he wanted to force him to spill the secret. In the end, he only forced this person to take action.”

Mo Chen thought very carefully. Then, she went to the heart of the matter. “Are you sure that he took action against Young Master Xing only after he inquired of the waiter?”

“I am sure. However, is that related?” Uncle Wang asked in confusion.

Mo Chen entered deep thought, her expression hidden behind the white veil. After a while, she said, “It is fine, then. I will meet him alone. You all do not need to follow.”

The others were all confused, feeling it was strange. They said in worry, “Old Wang, are we going to let the Young Miss go alone? With that person’s strength, I think that if we attacked together, our chances of victory would be about even.”

“Indeed. Although Young Master Xing only just advanced to Martial Sage, he was defeated with merely half a move. That is rather extreme.”

Uncle Wang sighed and said, “It depends on the Young Miss. This time, we accidentally picked up a big dragon. However, we still do not know if this is fortune or disaster.”

---

Is there a need to reveal your strength for such a minor character like that Young Master Xing? Ao Jiao asked after they returned to the room, unable to understand.

As of now, the origin of Xiao Chen’s Heavenly Sage Laws was shattered, and the Magic Energy in his sea of consciousness was deficient. However, he still had his physical body. He could bring out five Dragon Force, twenty-five thousand tons of force.

If a grandmaster-level Martial Sage were to appear, Xiao Chen would only be able to hold his own. The chances of him being able to completely overwhelm a grandmaster-level Martial Sage were slim.

Before recovering his Magic Energy, given Xiao Chen’s broken origin of Law Energy, he could not execute Deities Descending. A grandmaster-level Martial Sage could kill him with one punch.

Young Master Xing was only a greenhorn who had just advanced to Martial Sage. By using just one Dragon Force, Xiao Chen could have made him retreat with the knowledge that Xiao Chen was difficult to deal with.

However, Xiao Chen had used the aura of five Dragon Force and overwhelmed the other party in the tavern. Ao Jiao could not understand why he had done so.

After all, Xiao Chen currently had a lot of enemies. The Sea Monarch’s old guards were probably looking for him everywhere. The people of the Cyclic Astral Palace were definitely searching for him as well.

There were also those loose cultivators who were interested in Xiao Chen’s treasures. He should be more low-profile.

For the sake of concealing his identity, Xiao Chen used the Azure Dragon King’s insignia to make his azure Clear Wind Robes look like ordinary clothes.

He also removed the characteristic Sea Monarch Headscarf. All these actions served to reduce the chances of his identity being discovered at sea.

However, his actions now would result in the opposite, which made them hard to understand.

Xiao Chen took out that blue crystal once again. As he looked at the Solar True Flame sealed within the ice, he said, “You will understand in a while. Oh, by the way, show me the Alchemic Recipe for recovering my origin of Law Energy.”

This Medicinal Pill, known as the Heavenly Origin Pill, was something Ao Jiao came across during her travels with the Thunder Emperor. She already wrote down the Alchemic Recipe for it.

The Heavenly Origin Pill was a King Grade Medicinal Pill. Its ingredients were all very precious and required an enormous sum of money to purchase.

However, problems that could be solved with money were no problem for Xiao Chen at the moment.

The difficulty was finding an Alchemist to refine the Heavenly Origin Pill. Xiao Chen knew only the refining methods of the Immortal Epoch but not the proper methods of the Martial Epoch’s Alchemy.

Even if he spent a lot of money and found the ingredients, it would all be moot if there was no one to refine them.

Xiao Chen entered deep thought. A grandmaster Alchemist was not easy to find.

Someone is coming, Ao Jiao whispered from the Immortal Spirit Ring.

Xiao Chen checked with his Spiritual Sense. This was earlier than he expected. This Mo Clan’s Young Miss was indeed a smart person.

That was right. He had made his move in the tavern to draw this girl out.

Regardless of the Solar True Flame or the pendant on the girl’s chest, Xiao Chen had a great need for them.

From the waiter’s briefing, Xiao Chen roughly understood that the Mo Clan’s situation in the Shattered Cloud Sea was not very good.

Because she was pretty, the Mo Clan’s Young Miss was in even more trouble. Although she had managed to resolve these issues one by one through exquisite means, this respite would not last for very long.

Given this, there was some room for negotiation. Xiao Chen could help Mo Chen resolve these problems in exchange for the pendant around her chest and the loan of the Solar True Flame.

If that was not enough, Xiao Chen could still add in a few more incentives.

Negotiations naturally required him to show off some of his strength first. It was best if the other party initiated the discussion.

After all, Xiao Chen had no other good method to borrow the Solar True Flame and obtain Mo Chen’s pendant. He might as well give this a try first.

It would be good if it succeeded. If not, he would think of another method.

Xiao Chen put away the Alchemic Recipe and waved his hand. The door opened with a ‘creak.’ The veiled Mo Chen was right outside the door about to knock.
