Huo Linger wasn’t surprised by his refusal, but she was still surprised by the reason behind it. “Why don’t you give it a try before dismissing it,” she said.

She obviously wouldn’t give him anything he asked for, and she had just wanted to see what price he would ask. From that, she could judge just how broad his knowledge was.

If he just asked for upper-grade yuan stones, his previous words would then seem like a joke. The wealth possessed by the Fire Spirit Clan couldn’t be measured by mere numbers.

“Since you already stated this, why don’t you give your Fire Spirit Clan’s Fire God Heavenly Bead in exchange for it.” Jiang Chen didn’t give it a single thought and replied casually.

The Fire God Heavenly Bead was a treasure passed down from one generation to the next in the Fire Spirit Clan, and it had become the Eight Great Spirit Clans’ most valuable treasure. Average people wouldn’t even get to hear about it.

Huo Linger was obviously incapable of taking it out to exchange it, but she was still amazed by the fact that a human was this knowledgeable about the Spirit Clan.

“Aren’t you aware that this is out the question?” Huo Linger spoke solemnly.

“Didn’t I already state that?” Jiang Chen sheathed his sword, about to leave.

“Wait!” Huo Linger wasn’t willing to give up, but she still didn’t block Jiang Chen and instead followed by his side. “This sword is quite suitable for Fire Spirits, so can you please part with it?” Huo Linger said.

“Are you implying that I’m not qualified for it?” Jiang Chen turned his head and looked at her with his sharp, sword-like gaze.

Huo Linger was taken aback by this. She didn’t expect it to be difficult to haggle with Jiang Chen. She chose to stop in her tracks because she knew that it would be useless to continue insisting. However, it was obvious from her gaze that she still hadn’t given up.

Jiang Chen went back to his residence, which was in the Wind Department. The Fengyu Duo was now preparing to advance into the Celestial Venerable Realm, thus he didn’t get to see them on that day.

Moreover, Jiang Chen still planned to start making elixirs after several days. Raising his Fire Lore to the second level would be helpful to him while making elixirs, and it wouldn’t only improve the elixirs quality; it would also shorten their production time by half.

“Well?”

After a short while had passed since he went back to his residence, Jiang Chen heard a disturbance outside. When he spread out his Holy Awareness, irritation appeared in his eyes. It was a Fire Spirit again that had come over.

They were already challenging his patience. He went to open the gate and saw Huo Linger, as he had expected, but there were still several more people in their group this time.

Two among them had exceptionally powerful auras, that surpassed even Huo Linger greatly. They both strode forward and examined him rudely with their gazes.

“Jiang Chen, the Fire Spirit Clan’s princess asked you personally, yet you didn’t give her due respect.” One of them was human, so he was the first to speak. He spoke in a reprimanding tone like he was Jiang Chen’s elder, while Jiang Chen didn’t know even his name.

“What does that have to do with me?” Jiang Chen replied bluntly.

“Do you know who I am?” This person was angered, and he widened his eyes as a powerful aura emanated from him.

“I’m not interested in hearing it.” Jiang Chen noticed that this person was a late stage Celestial Venerable. Moreover, he wasn’t an ordinary Celestial Venerable who only cared about increasing his realm level. Any Celestial Venerable who could join the Cliff Mountain wasn’t mediocre.

“Yang Fan, let me deal with him.” Another late-stage Celestial Venerable who had come with Huo Linger strode forward slowly. This person wasn’t just a genius; he was also a Spirit.

He resembled Huo Linger slightly, but he was more handsome. He had a tall stature, and he was wearing battle armor.

“Huo Linger is my younger sister, and she’s quite fond of your sword. If you’re sensible, you’ll quickly part with it.” He spoke bluntly, not giving Jiang Chen an opportunity to reply. He continued, “Or else, it’ll be difficult for you to live in the Three Middle Realms, and you’ll be obliged to get lost and go back to the Three Lower Realms.”

It wasn’t strange that a Doctrine Artifact’s charm would bring him such trouble.

“Who do you think you are? Even if you were my son, I wouldn’t give you the sheath.” Jiang Chen spoke rudely while facing his threats. There were some people who didn’t deserve respect.

After Jiang Chen spoke, surprise appeared on the faces of the Cliff Mountain’s disciples who had followed them there, and sympathy appeared on their faces afterward. It was like Jiang Chen had just made a grave mistake.

Even Huo Linger, who desired the Red Cloud Sword, felt slightly ashamed of herself, while the Spirit who had been cursed at by Jiang Chen was still calm and indifferent. He squinted his eyes, still wearing an expressionless look.

“Did you assume that we couldn’t attack you because of the Cliff Mountain?” After a short while, he spoke again.

“I just assumed that you were depending upon the Cliff Mountain’s rules, as well as your numerical superiority, to try to scare me,” replied Jiang Chen, sneering coldly.

“Then, do you dare to leave the Cliff Mountain’s scope and fight against me?” he said.

“Huo Kun, you’re too shameless. Why don’t you go ask a Great Venerable to fight with you?” It was at this time that Zhou Jianfeng came over and criticized him righteously.

“Who do you think you are? You’re merely a Spiritual Venerable,” Huo Kun spat disdainfully.

“Then what about you, who wants to challenge a trifling Spiritual Venerable for a sword? You’re really noble and great, aren’t you?” Zhou Jianfeng didn’t let himself be outdone, and he spoke without giving the outer party any respect at all.

The spirit called Huo Kun furrowed his brows. He was at a loss for words and couldn’t give a retort, because it was really as the outer party had said.

“You won’t be willing to part with the sword at all, will you?” He cast his gaze at Jiang Chen once again and spoke threateningly.

“You’re really too talkative.” Irritation appeared on Jiang Chen’s face. He wasn’t willing to waste any more breath on him.

“I hope that you’re clear about the price you’ll pay for showing off now. If you found Li Yunfei’s prior actions a disturbance, you’ll soon realize that it’s child’s play in comparison to what will happen next,” Huo Kun said coldly.

“I really want to experience it, as in any case, I’m quite bored here,” replied Jiang Chen with a faint smile.

Huo Kun clenched his teeth. He couldn’t understand why this human was so fearless, even though he knew that he was a Fire Spirit. He was obviously an insignificant guy from the Three Lower Realms. He was extremely reckless and oblivious to everything.

“Just wait and see!” Huo Kun and Yang Fan shot Jiang Chen a ferocious glare before they led their people away and left.

Huo Linger, who had just turned around, wore a complex expression. She just wanted the Red Cloud Sword, but after what Jiang Chen had said, it would be difficult for him to even live.

As he watched the leaving Huo Kun, a bitter look appeared on the face of Zhou Jianfeng, who was smiling provocatively.

“It’ll be really troublesome now.” Zhou Jianfeng shook his head and said, “He probably won’t do anything in the Cliff Mountain, but once you leave it, who knows what he’ll do.”

“At that time, it’ll be the case for me, too.” Jiang Chen didn’t care about this at all. He had met many people like this person. How could it be possible for him to simply hand over the Red Cloud Sword?

Moreover, since he already offended him, it wouldn’t matter if he offended him more thoroughly.

“Sigh! I already learned about your true disposition when you dared to kill Young Master Xuanji in the past.” Zhou Jianfeng’s helpless tone was filled with admiration.

Just as Zhou Jianfeng had said, Huo Kun’s revenge started immediately. Jiang Chen was not only incapable of using the Fire Department’s cultivation resources, but it was also difficult for him to even take a single step inside their area.

He wasn’t the type of person who would rat on people, thus he didn’t look for the Fire Venerable. In any case, since they couldn’t attack him in the Cliff Mountain, he still went to the Fire Department and cultivated there.

However, they obviously tried hard to disturb him, and Li Yunfei’s previous actions really did seem like child’s play in comparison to them.

“Since you all want to play...” Jiang Chen sat in the center of the fire pillar plaza. A faint smile pulled at the corners of his mouth, as he looked at the thug-like Cliff Mountain disciples outside.
