Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1113: Chapter 1112: Taking Up Arms

”If it’s true, this person really is an extraordinary figure.”

The maid’s face showed a tinge of amazement. At such a young age, he could still respond calmly even when cornered by such strong enemies, which was truly astonishing.

”So, do you think he deserves the VIP token I gave him now?”

Tang Yun’er said with a smile.

”Miss, you’re wise.”

The maid was sincerely convinced.

”Someone like this, if made a friend, is by far better than making him an enemy. Although not entirely sure, maintaining some necessary goodwill is essential. I believe if Grandpa were here, he would choose to do the same.” Tang Yun’er glanced in the direction Ling Chen left, speaking mildly.

”Miss is becoming more flawless with her actions.”

The maid praised, nodding her head. Ling Chen’s future was boundless. Although he hadn’t yet broken through to become a Saint, it was only a matter of time. With Ling Chen’s current potential, he was more worthy of befriending than a genuine Saint.

”However, that Black Snake Saint probably doesn’t know Ling Chen’s identity, and is likely waiting outside for him. You must quickly go to Lingyue Island’s base on Lotus Island to inform them of this matter.”

Tang Yun’er said.

”Didn’t Ling Chen claim that he wasn’t afraid of the Black Snake Saint, why would the young miss do this? Even if that lad is not a match for the Black Snake Saint, why doesn’t the young miss directly help him, wouldn’t that be more effective.”

The maid asked with some confusion.

”Our East Sea Chamber of Commerce usually doesn’t interfere in external disputes. The Black Snake Saint has many friends in this sea domain, and falling out with him wouldn’t benefit our chamber.”

Tang Yun’er shook her head, then continued, ”Besides, if he can’t even contend with the Black Snake Saint, what value does he have to tie up with? Informing the people of Lingyue Island is just to do him a favor.”

”Understood.”

The maid nodded and then retreated.

”Next, let me see your capabilities, Ling Chen.”

Tang Yun’er’s mouth curved slightly, a hint of anticipation in her eyes, as she walked towards the entrance of the shop.

...

Outside.

Ling Chen and Lin Wan had just stepped out of the shop’s door and saw the Black Snake Saint blocking their way. Behind him were a dozen members of the Heavenly Snake Gang, eyeing Ling Chen and Lin Wan ferociously.

”Boy, I thought you were going to hide inside and not dare to come out.”

The Black Snake Saint grinned, his smile carrying a chill, ”You had a woman protecting you earlier, now, no one can protect you.”

”I thought Your Excellency, after rolling around in this Penglai Island Territory for so many years, would have honed a sharp eye to know whom to provoke and whom not to offend, but seems I overestimated you.”

Ling Chen just glanced at the Black Snake Saint and others, then said blandly.

”Haha, sharp-tongued boy, I certainly know whom I dare not offend, but you are not among them!”

The Black Snake Saint sneered twice, his gaze suddenly becoming cold, ”It seems breaking my phantom snake gave you too much confidence, do you really think you can contend with me?!”

As his voice fell, the Black Snake Saint suddenly flipped his palm, and a black snake-shaped long spear appeared in his hand. The next moment, it fiercely pierced towards Ling Chen!

As the snake spear pierced out, Ling Chen’s location was suddenly engulfed in darkness, plunging into illusion once again!

Beside him, Lin Wan was about to draw her sword to help, but Ling Chen turned his head, glanced at her, and said in a low voice, ”Elder Sister Lin, step back!”

Hearing this, Lin Wan raised her head in surprise, but then nodded, swiftly retreating.

Since Ling Chen dared to do this, he must have the confidence to do so.

As Lin Wan retreated, Ling Chen’s aura suddenly surged. The Ancient Saint King Battle Technique was driven to its limit, quickly elevating from the Seventh Realm of Sky Apex to the level of a Junior semi-saint!

With his aura at its peak, Ling Chen suddenly raised his sword, blocking the path of the snake spear.

Clang!

The snake spear struck the sword, sending brilliant sparks scattering, forcing Ling Chen back over ten meters.

”Haha, boy, is that all you’ve got!”

The Black Snake Saint’s face brightened with a smile, realizing Ling Chen was merely bluffing, and there was yet a significant gap between their strengths!

However, even as he retreated, a glimmer of brilliance flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes, and the Red Sky Sword in his hand was suddenly engulfed in a blaze of heat. From the sword, a sharp phoenix cry resounded, as a flaming phoenix burst forth, sweeping towards the Black Snake Saint!

”Trifling tricks!”

The Black Snake Saint sneered, thrusting his snake spear directly at the flaming phoenix!

Boom!

The flaming phoenix was pierced through with a large hole, and the next moment, it exploded. The terrifying shockwaves engulfed the Black Snake Saint, blasting a massive hole in the ground.

As dense black smoke rolled by, the Black Snake Saint’s figure emerged, his clothes tattered, skin charred. Though not severely injured, he appeared extremely disheveled.

”Fancy but useless tricks, what can they do to me?”

The Black Snake Saint’s mouth curled with disdain; Ling Chen’s sword posed a significant threat, but his tough snake skin and Scale Armor protected him. Otherwise, Ling Chen might have wounded him.

”Is that so?”

However, Ling Chen had already sheathed his sword, a playful look on his face, ”Maybe not.”

Seeing Ling Chen’s expression, the Black Snake Saint felt a tightening in his heart, his eyes suddenly looking down at the ground beneath him, and his expression suddenly changed.

In his sight, an ancient flame pattern had somehow taken shape, forming a circular area that completely enveloped his body.

”Not good!”

An extremely violent wave suddenly emanated from the circular area. As he panicked, intending to retreat, the circular sword qi area abruptly contracted from its original span of several feet to less than one foot in diameter!

Puff!

The violent sword qi struck the Black Snake Saint, sending him flying, and he spurted a mouthful of blood.

The Black Snake Saint, defeated!

”Leader!”

The members of the Heavenly Snake Gang, witnessing this scene, changed their expressions drastically, hurriedly rushing forward to support the Black Snake Saint, their eyes filled with shock as they looked at Ling Chen. This mere Sky Apex Realm kid actually injured their leader, a genuine Saint!
