Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 392 - 193: A Contest of Strength and Life-or-Death (Part 2)

Chapter 392: Chapter 193: A Contest of Strength and Life-or-Death (Part 2)

Xu Guang raised his eyes, quietly looking at him, "Who is Li Gen? How many people in the world know him?"

The steward was speechless.

Xu Guang continued, "I came today, not representing the Dragon Gate, nor representing the Vice Commander of Iron Dragon Pass."

"I merely heard that Jiang Chendao of the Jiang Family has outstanding talent, and people often mention us both in the same breath. Xu Mou does not like being mentioned alongside others, and only wishes to have a match with Jiang Chendao."

Xu Guang’s voice wasn’t loud, yet it instantly stirred up the onlookers.

Did Xu Guang come alone on an elephant just to pick a fight with Jiang Chendao?

What kind of conflict exists between them, merely because of their reputations?

It seems possible.

Those who make a name for themselves at a young age are often proud and spirited.

In the Jianghu, there are countless who have killed or been killed over fame.

Of course, not everyone thinks this way.

Judging from Xu Guang’s past actions, he is not one to seek fame and victory, so there might be hidden motives for his visit today.

But no matter the reason, today may witness a fierce battle, a clash of Fourth Grade Divine Powers.

It excites the heart.

...

Marquis Bo Wang walked around the room with a face of anger.

To him, this was originally a trivial matter, but Xu Guang insisted on making it so difficult.

Does he intend to fall out with the Jiang Family?

Soon, footsteps were heard from outside.

"Marquis, news from the Three Ancestors says Jiang Chendao should accept the challenge."

Marquis Bo Wang turned around angrily, "Accept the challenge!?"

"What does this mean? My pride of Zouchuan Dao didn’t fall in battle, yet he’s caught in a life-and-death struggle because of an old man already halfway to death’s door? Making barbarians laugh at him?"

The servant, who served the elders of the Jiang Family, spoke softly.

"Lord Gong Sun of the Ten Thousand Laws Sect consulted the Three Ancestors."

Marquis Bo Wang instantly understood.

So that’s it. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

This Xu Guang...

"Go find Chendao."

...

In the dark room.

Jiang Chendao held a piece of barbarian bone quietly in his hand, as strange patterns on the bone released strands of peculiar aura, and pure Spirit Charm emerged from the void.

Using the proximity of barbarians to the Ancient Gods, he skillfully stole the Spirit Charm from the Void Realm.

"Directly using barbarian bones does not seem faster than using someone affected by the barbarian Summoning Technique."

"Of course, the Summoning Technique is the power of the Ancient Gods, and though barbarian cultivation is similar, they can never truly become Ancient Gods."

Listening to the voice of the elder in his mind, Jiang Chendao nodded.

Just then, there was a knock on the door from outside.

Moments later, a servant reported that Xu Guang was waiting downstairs at the Building Outside Building and stated the Three Ancestors told him to accept the challenge.

Jiang Chendao sneered, "A real man doesn’t quibble over minor issues. This Xu Guang seeks revenge for the smallest grievances; though talented, he lacks greatness."

"Very well, I’ll entertain him for a while."

He rose calmly.

...

As Jiang Chendao approached with large strides, Xu Guang narrowed his eyes.

"Sect Leader Xu has misunderstood. I have just emerged and am praised undeservedly, otherwise how could I be mentioned in the same breath as Sect Leader Xu."

"Sect Leader Xu, is there some misunderstanding between us?"

With a few words, he positioned himself as someone suffering undeserved misfortune.

"It’s only our second meeting, how could there be a misunderstanding?"

Xu Guang replied indifferently, not intending to truly offend the Jiang Family.

He didn’t want this, but Jiang Chendao was unwilling, so Xu Guang insisted on mentioning Old Li.

"Li Gen was a respectable man. He was affected by a barbarian Summoning Technique of extremely high rank, and if triggered, could summon a god from the barbarians’ side. I sent him to the bottom of the Demon Refining Peak, and he endured for half a month."

After a pause, he suddenly said, "Luckily, he died. If he had exploded during a barbarian invasion, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Xu Guang quietly watched, whether true or false no longer mattered.

Old Li couldn’t even handle Pile Skill, and even if affected by the so-called Summoning Technique, could he cause such chaos in Zouchuan Dao?

If so, would the barbarians not have already taken over the Central Plains?

"Right or wrong, Xu Mou has no intention or ability to judge. You are responsible for guarding the Demon Refining Peak, and all good or evil is decided by you. I don’t know what fortune lies within the peak that brought someone so ordinary to your level in thirteen years."

"But..."

Xu Guang stepped forward.

"Sharing a name with you brings me shame. Today, I am here to cleanse that shame, will you accept?"

Jiang Chendao’s face turned somber.

His tone was humble, yet subtly sharp, trying to attribute Xu Guang’s actions to personal grievance, making Xu Guang’s future in Zouchuan Dao difficult.

But unexpectedly, Xu Guang, with just a few words, insinuated that he cultivated some Forbidden Magic Technique.

Such words naturally spread.

If he hadn’t practiced it that would be one thing, but considering how many people died at the Demon Refining Peak over the years, and if investigated thoroughly...

Suddenly, he keenly noticed that the head steward of Marquis Bo Wang’s line was already looking at him with suspicion.

"There’s no fortune at the Demon Refining Peak. What I have today comes only from hard work and sweat, besides, no matter how fast I progress, how could I compare to Sect Leader Xu."

He smiled bitterly.

"Never thought Sect Leader Xu would come because of the words of some clueless people in the Jianghu. Fortune does not fall from the sky, but disaster does. I accept this battle."

Xu Guang’s expression remained calm.

"Divine Techniques see not with eyes, Martial Techniques are boundless. Though I look down on you, the Jianghu holds us as equals. Xu Mou believes you must have some skills, but I cannot guarantee holding back. In Hai Province, martial combat is rampant, and before battle, a life-and-death contract is established, no regrets in life or death.

Today, let us follow Hai Province’s martial combat and establish a contract, no regrets in life or death."

The crowd outside erupted in an uproar.

Master Fu Feng’s face showed shock, "Isn’t this... too rash?"
