Divine War Pill Emperor

”I am someone who cannot be killed.”

Jiang Chen’s words echoed in everyone’s ears like a devil’s whisper.

Everyone thought this man was too arrogant, too condescending.

To say something so outrageously conceited in front of so many experts.

”So arrogant, just so arrogant! He’s the most arrogant person I’ve ever seen.”

”This brat has a death wish.”

Every person present had walked the line between life and death. They had seen countless ignorant and conceited youngsters.

But they had never seen anyone as wantonly arrogant as Jiang Chen.

Even so, seeing Yang Tian’s miserable state, no one dared to say a word.

They were all intimidated by Jiang Chen.

Although they all believed that Yang Tian must have been carelessly tricked by Jiang Chen...

Besides, they were all experts at the Martial Master Level. How could they possibly be afraid of Jiang Chen?

But right now, no one was stepping forward. Not even Xiao Gu, whose apprentice had died, dared to advance. The others had no major grievances with Jiang Chen and were even less likely to provoke him under such uncertain circumstances.

Jiang Chen said coolly, ”This is the fate of those who provoke me.”

Meanwhile, Yang Tian’s face was drained of all color from the agony he was in.

It was too painful. He even wished for death.

The feeling of his soul being ravaged by the Soul-Breaking Poison was something even his First Heaven Martial Master Cultivation couldn’t help him endure.

He said to Jiang Chen, ”I beg you, kill me.”

”You want to die? It’s simple. Kill yourself.”

Jiang Chen couldn’t be bothered to act.

As Jiang Chen’s words fell, Yang Tian seemed to reach the limit of his endurance.

A sword suddenly appeared in his hand.

With a loud cry, he stabbed it into his own abdomen.

”PFFT!”

”PFFT!”

He stabbed himself in the abdomen several times in succession.

Blood spurted out. Yang Tian had killed himself, and he collapsed into a pool of his own blood.

Some wanted to stop him, but it was too late.

”HISS...”

Seeing this, many gasped, a chill running down their spines.

Jiang Chen’s bizarre, ruthless methods had an air of profound mystery about them.

It made them start to feel a deep sense of dread toward Jiang Chen.

Yang Tian, with his First Heaven Martial Master Cultivation, had been utterly powerless against Jiang Chen, doing whatever Jiang Chen said.

He was like a Puppet controlled by Jiang Chen.

Although everyone present was a Martial Artist expert, none of them dared to take the risk.

”You... you’re too ruthless...”

Someone finally managed to squeeze out a sentence.

Jiang Chen retorted, ”No. If I weren’t ruthless, I would be the one who’s dead.”

As for Xiao Gu, who had been baying for Jiang Chen’s blood, he now asked in terror, ”What in the world did you do to Steward Yang?”

Perhaps this was the question everyone present wanted to know the answer to.

Sure enough, everyone’s eyes snapped to Jiang Chen in unison.

It seemed they were all waiting for Jiang Chen’s answer.

Slowly, Jiang Chen began to walk across the vast council hall. Wherever he went, people instinctively backed away.

No one remained where Jiang Chen passed, avoiding him like the plague.

Even Master Qin, after weighing his options, actually retreated to his seat and said nothing.

’He knew that the apprentice of a master capable of refining a Second-Grade Purple Gold Quality Foundation Strengthening Pill would surely have extraordinary methods.’

’He really did not want to provoke him right now.’

In the end, everyone had backed away, leaving a large, open space for Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen stood there in his white robes.

His entire bearing was calm and composed, like that of a grandmaster.

He looked so utterly imperious.

”I know you all want to know what I did.”

”Actually, it’s very simple. He provoked me, so he had to die.”

”I warned him beforehand, but he refused to listen.”

Everyone was stirred. Jiang Chen had indeed said it before: whoever provoked him would die.

Bai Shu provoked him, and Bai Shu died.

Yang Tian provoked him, and Yang Tian died.

It was just that arrogant, that sharp.

”As for how he died... I think it’s best you don’t know. If you knew, you would all be terrified. You would all have nightmares. The very thought of me would make you tremble.”

Of course, even if he didn’t say it, who among them here today wouldn’t have nightmares?

At this moment, no one dared to cross swords with Jiang Chen.

To challenge his overwhelming presence.

Dread. They were all filled with dread for this young man.

After all, none of them knew how Yang Tian had died, and his death had been far too bizarre.

But Jiang Chen continued, ”Now, does anyone else want to provoke me? You can come and try.”

”I will be ready anytime.”

Domineering and arrogant, Jiang Chen’s presence at this moment had completely suppressed even that of Master Qin, the President of the Alchemist Guild.

He was without peer.

The entire hall fell silent.

After a long silence, Master Qin was the first to speak. ”Steward Jiang, since they provoked you, they deserved to die.”

He had to say something to dispel the strange atmosphere.

He couldn’t just let Jiang Chen put on a one-man show; he was the President, after all.

Moreover, by doing this, Jiang Chen had solidified his position as Senior Steward. If anyone else wanted to object, they would have to think twice.

Jiang Chen was establishing his dominance; everyone could see that.

Now that his dominance was established, Master Qin knew the farce had to end.

So he spoke up.

Hearing Master Qin speak, someone immediately forced a smile.

They chimed in, ”Yes, yes, the President is right! Steward Jiang did the right thing. A Senior Steward is not someone just anyone can provoke.”

”That’s right, I think so too. Steward Jiang is correct. We absolutely cannot allow some low-life to trample on the rules of our Alchemist Guild.”

”I couldn’t agree more with Steward Jiang.”

And so, one by one, after being stunned by Jiang Chen, they all grew to fear him.

They began to accept Jiang Chen’s presence.

As for the deaths of Bai Shu and Yang Tian, it had nothing to do with them.

So they began to show goodwill toward Jiang Chen.

They acknowledged Jiang Chen’s status in the Alchemist Guild.

No one dared to look down on Jiang Chen any longer.

Seeing that no one else was stepping forward,

Jiang Chen said, ”I’m finished. You may continue.”

With that, he went straight back to his seat and plopped down.

He completely ignored everything that had just happened, as if it never occurred.

Master Qin frowned.

”Someone, take care of Steward Yang. Just say he died from a qi deviation during Alchemy.”

He didn’t want any trouble. This was a common way of handling such matters in the Alchemist Guild.

Soon, a few guards ran in—all of them Martial Artist experts. They dragged Yang Tian’s body out. The public announcement, of course, would be that Yang Tian had suffered a qi deviation during Alchemy and died by accident.

Once Yang Tian’s body was taken away, Master Qin asked, ”Is there any other business?”

”If not, this meeting is adjourned.”

What a joke. They had wanted to put Jiang Chen in his place today, but instead, he had been the one to establish his dominance.

What was the point of continuing the meeting now? Jiang Chen had already turned the whole place upside down.

If they continued, there was no telling what other trouble Jiang Chen might cause.

This man was truly an anomaly.

Master Qin was even beginning to regret bringing Jiang Chen in. It was easier to invite the devil in than to ask him to leave. He had no excuse to get rid of Jiang Chen now.

Xiao Gu had come to avenge his apprentice, but in the end, he had only helped Jiang Chen succeed. Jiang Chen’s display of dominance was a success, and his position was now even more stable.

He gritted his teeth, but there was absolutely nothing he could do.

In his heart, even he was now incredibly wary of Jiang Chen.

He was someone who had already suffered a great loss at Jiang Chen’s hands.

He knew that Yang Tian’s death had been utterly bizarre.

Without another word, Master Qin stood up and left.

The others left one after another.

But some people, as they were leaving, cupped their fists toward Jiang Chen and said, ”Congratulations, Steward Jiang.”

The number of people greeting him grew. This was a form of acknowledgment for Jiang Chen.
