Chapter 2074: The Fifth Prince’s Killing Intent
A cold light flashed through Jian Chen’s eyes. Even though he knew a mysterious power protected Xiao Man, preventing anyone from touching her, how could he allow a Godking to attack her?
Just when the old man’s flying sword was about to reach Xiao Man, Jian Chen struck out with his sword.
The old man had been expecting Jian Chen to do this. He could not help but smile scornfully. With a thought, the sword suddenly exploded in speed.
However, Jian Chen’s strike was unbelievably fast as well. Even though the old man’s flying sword had doubled in speed, it was still unable to dodge Jian Chen’s attack.
Ding!
Jian Chen’s sword struck the old man’s flying sword with a force that was enough to shock the latter. With the clashing of metal, resplendent sparks were produced while the old man’s sword was knocked far away with a deep thrum.
“Jian Chen really is powerful. This is definitely not power an early Godking can possess.” The old man’s face changed slightly. His mind was connected to his sword, so only he knew that while his sword seemed fine on the surface, it had already cracked inside.
Jian Chen’s strike had damaged his flying sword and almost managed to disperse the senses of his soul he had left in there to control it.
“I cannot fight him!” The old man immediately made up his mind and retreated rapidly. He pulled far away from Jian Chen and also stood in a way where he indicated he would not be attacking anymore.
However, Jian Chen did not let him go. With a single movement, he shot towards the old man as a blur. The sword in his hand shone with cold light as he stabbed towards the old man’s forehead with a bright glow.
Jian Chen’s strike was merciless as well. It seemed to surpass the speed of lightning, reaching an unbelievable level where many of the Godkings present struggled to capture it with the sense of their souls. Clearly, Jian Chen wanted to kill the old man in a single strike.
Sensing the power in Jian Chen’s strike, the old man’s face changed drastically. A set of high quality saint artifact armor appeared, covering his body completely, only leaving his two eyes revealed.
Bang!
Jian Chen stabbed the old man’s forehead right after he equipped his armor, erupting with a heavy sound.
Even though the old man was protected by his armor, he was still blown away by the force in Jian Chen’s strike. His vertebrae all shattered while his head was almost blown off his body.
“Jian Chen, I already indicated that I would not be attacking again. Don’t go overboard. Everyone, let’s deal with him together. We can’t let him break out,” the old man said from his soul as he was absolutely terrified. A crack had already appeared on the forehead of his helm.
He completely believed that Jian Chen’s next strike would have been able to destroy his armor.
The surrounding Godkings watched on coldly. None of them showed any intentions of stepping forwards. Among them, many of the Godkings who had arrived later had only heard that Jian Chen was very powerful from other people. However, they had no idea just how strong he was, so they wanted to test his strength out through the old man.
At this moment, Jian Chen stabbed out a second time. His sword shone resplendently as he stabbed it out as a streak of light, dyeing the night sky snow-white. It was shocking.
Jian Chen directly shattered the old man’s armor with the second strike while the sharp tip churned with silver-white light. It penetrated the old man’s forehead mercilessly, wiping out his soul.
The sword the old man controlled that was currently flying back lost all power and fell to the ground with the old man’s death.
Jian Chen’s face did not change at all. He collected the old man’s Space Ring before returning to Xiao Man’s side. Right now, he surged with sword intent, just like a god of the sword. He seemed like he was going to hold them all off by himself as he said frigidly, “Is there anyone else who would like to try?”
It was completely silent. Many Godkings were indeed stunned by the great strength Jian Chen had displayed. He had completely overwhelmed and claimed the life of a late Godking after two simple-looking attacks without using any battle skills. This strength deterred them from doing anything reckless.
He was already so terrifying without using battle skills. If he used one, just how powerful would it be?
With a supreme quality saint artifact in his hand, Jian Chen’s strength had indeed increased drastically.
“Hehehehe, how imposing. You managed to stun all these Godkings all by yourself. You’ve earned my attention,” at this moment, a peal of rather cold laughter rang out. A young man in violet armor strode over from the distance. He seemed like he was in his twenties.
The young man’s appearance was striking, and his gait was majestic. He gave off an undeniable sense of prestige, where it was possible to tell that it was nurtured from holding an important position for a long time.
However, ever since he appeared, his eyes had remained locked on Jian Chen. His seemingly indifferent gaze hid a certain sharpness as well as faint killing intent.
Jian Chen looked at the young man and recognised him as the fifth prince from the Sky Empire of the Profound Thunder Plane with a single glance. The several dozen Godkings beside him included the Godkings of the Yun family.
Yun Xin was also beside the fifth prince.
When Yun Xin saw Jian Chen, she immediately showed excitement in her eyes. At the same time, she sighed in relief secretly. Just when she was about to call out to Jian Chen, she glanced at the fifth prince beside her. He seemed to be concerned, so she could only force it all back down inside her.
Yun Lianqing’s eyes lit up as well. He looked at Jian Chen amiably, and just when he was about to greet Jian Chen, a gleam of light flashed through his eyes. He glanced at the fifth prince before him and told Jian Chen in an extremely discrete fashion to be careful of the fifth prince.
Yun Lianqing had known that the fifth prince wanted to kill Jian Chen since a very long ago, but due to the fact that their Yun family was located in the Sky Empire, their Yun family did not dare to act rashly. Even though he knew the fifth prince wanted Jian Chen dead, there was nothing he could do.
“So it’s the fifth prince of the Sky Empire from the Profound Thunder Plane. And I was thinking I would go find your highness after the matter here concluded, but never did I think I’d come across the fifth prince right now. The world sure is small,” Jian Chen clasped his fist at the fifth prince as he smiled with hidden meaning.
A gleam of light flickered through the eyes of the fifth prince when he heard that. He stared straight at Jian Chen and asked, “Why are you looking for me?”
