Fantasy: Starting with a bowl, you can exchange it for endless cultivation.

Gu Chen looked at Tian Lie with murderous intent in his eyes, but said nothing.

This Tian Lie dared to disregard his reputation and attack him.

There are no strong individuals on the Nine Bays City Night Watch side who can rival him now, so no matter how much boasting he spouts, it's useless.

He could only endure it for now, and wait until he went to get reinforcements before letting Tian Lie know the consequences of daring to attack him.

Tian Lie snorted coldly from the front.

He completely ignored Feng Yuan and Pi Kaikai's angry shouts.

He then left with a group of Qingyun Sword Sect disciples.

The Divine Dynasty is strong.

But he only taught Gu Chen a lesson; it wasn't a big deal.

He didn't kill Gu Chen, so even if the high-ranking officials of the Divine Dynasty's Night Watch Division ran to the Qingyun Sword Sect, someone would cover for him.

Moreover, because of this incident, the higher-ups of the Divine Dynasty's Night Watch Division would not make a special trip to the Qingyun Sword Sect.

Because Gu Chen had previously injured two disciples of their Qingyun Sword Sect.

He was avenging his disciple, and the Qingyun Sword Sect had some reason to object.

As Wu Fa left, he gave Gu Chen a mocking and sarcastic look before following his master, Tian Lie, away.

Gu Chen was very arrogant before, so he slapped him in public, making him lose face. Now he has finally received the retribution he deserves.

Cool!

Ye Xuemei and the disciples of Hanfeng Valley watched this scene and felt that the people of Qingyun Sword Sect were really bold.

Since the younger ones couldn't beat him, the older ones directly stepped in to teach Gu Chen a lesson.

Only they would do something like this, bullying the weak.

It's unclear how Gu Chen will retaliate next.

She sensed that Gu Chen wasn't one to swallow his anger, and that this matter was definitely not over.

Feng Yuan and Pi Kaikai ignored Tian Lie's words and left with a group of Qingyun Sword Sect disciples without offering any explanation.

I felt incredibly angry.

But there was nothing that could be done.

Tian Lie was a fifth-rank expert, someone they couldn't contend with.

He dared to directly attack Gu Chen.

They simply wouldn't think of giving them an explanation.

To put it simply...

They are not qualified.

Although they were seventh-rank officials of the Divine Dynasty.

However, his strength is only at the True Essence Realm.

In this world where strength reigns supreme, it's clearly not enough for them to rely solely on their official authority to make a fifth-rank expert like Tian Lie bow down.

Even if Tian Lie were to give an explanation afterward, he would only do so to the higher-ups of the Night Watch, not to them.

The two of them, along with Fang Zhoujin and Shen Zhuang, looked at Gu Chen.

By now.

They were out of options.

Talking about your background and status to someone like Ueda Retsu, a fifth-rank expert from a top-tier force like the Qingyun Sword Sect, is useless.

It all comes down to fists.

Speaking of background, the Qingyun Sword Sect has a powerful background. As long as they don't kill you, they'll just teach you a lesson.

The Divine Dynasty couldn't possibly turn against them directly and do anything to them.

If Gu Chen wants to get revenge, he can only do it himself.

Gu Chen is not Shangguan Wuqing's disciple.

You can go find Shangguan Wuqing and see how he plans to handle it.

"It's alright, gentlemen. It's just one punch. I, Gu Chen, can take it." Gu Chen smiled and replied, seeing the four people's concerned gazes.

Gu Chen was smiling.

But everyone around him knew that his smile was cold.

"Let's go back first," Gu Chen said to the Night Watch personnel.

After taking Cheng Mengling's healing pills, along with the repair of his injuries by the Azure Dragon True Essence within his body, he recovered.

At this moment, apart from his clothes being slightly dirty, he looked fine.

Of course, this isn't the end of the story!

You're bullying the weak, aren't you? You're attacking me, aren't you?

Gu Chen led a group of Night Watchmen back to the Night Watch headquarters.

He said to Liang Xiaoyun and Lin Fei, "Have someone keep an eye on the Qingyun Sword Sect and find out their movements. I'm going out for a bit."

"Yes, sir." The two men accepted the order.

They knew that their master had suffered a loss this time and would certainly not let it go easily.

Their master's identity is not simple; he is the seventh personal disciple of Shangguan Wuqing, the chief commander of the Night Watch of the Desolate State.

Next, their parents will definitely go and call for reinforcements.

They just need to keep a close eye on the movements of the Qingyun Sword Sect group in the city.

Wait until their parents bring back reinforcements.

We must teach those Qingyun Sword Sect people a lesson they won't forget.

"Mm." Gu Chen nodded.

Then they immediately set off and left.

Once outside Jiuwan City, one should use true essence to travel through the air.

Heading towards Yuehai County.

He was going to find his senior brother, Luo Tianxing.

Even his master, Shangguan Wuqing, didn't need to intervene to deal with someone like Tian Lie, a fifth-rank expert.

Finding his senior brother, a fourth-rank expert, is enough.

Gu Chen flew at full speed.

It was faster than any previous trip to Yuehai County, taking less than an hour.

He then arrived at the night watch station of Yuehai County.

They approached Luo Tianxing.

He rushed over, looking quite aggrieved.

Luo Tianxing immediately asked, "Junior brother, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly come looking for your senior brother?"

"Senior brother, junior brother was almost killed on the spot just now!" Gu Chen said.

Then Gu Chen showed Luo Tianxing the dust that was stuck to his body.

It's obvious that it got there because someone hit it and smashed it on the ground.

"What's going on!" Luo Tianxing exclaimed in shock. Gu Chen had just been almost killed!

This is outrageous!

You must understand, this is his territory, and Gu Chen is his master's newest junior brother, whom he obtained from Tie Yangtian.

If Shangguan Wuqing knew that his junior brother, whose talent was almost supernatural, was nearly killed in Yuehai County, how would he explain it?

"Junior brother, tell me slowly, what happened?" Luo Tianxing hurriedly looked at Gu Chen and asked with concern.

They dared to mess with his junior brother on his turf.

Who dares to be so bold? Don't they want to live?!

"That's how it is," Gu Chen explained to him. "The latest ranking of geniuses was released a few days ago, and you managed to climb to 500th place. Since then, many geniuses on the list have come to challenge you."

He knew about it.

Gu Chen possesses the cultivation of the fifth level of the Innate Realm and has the feat of killing a mutated tiger demon at the fifth level of the Innate Realm.

It's normal to be ranked on the list of geniuses.

"A few days ago, Liu Chen, a disciple of the Qingyun Sword Sect, brought his fellow disciples to my Jiuwan City, wanting to challenge me."

"That night, my junior brother was drinking with the managers of several forces in Jiuwan City in a restaurant. When the disciples of the Qingyun Sword Sect arrived, they demanded that we give up our seats. If we didn't, they threatened to attack us. My junior brother couldn't stand it, so he gave them a small punishment."

"After today, their senior brother Liu Chen challenged me, but was defeated by my junior brother. Among the two senior experts from the Qingyun Sword Sect, Liu Chen's uncle couldn't accept defeat, so he attacked my junior brother in public. Liu Chen's uncle was at the fifth rank, and my junior brother was no match for him, almost being killed on the spot!"

"Please, senior brother, do me justice!" Gu Chen said, looking at Luo Tianxing.

"People from the Qingyun Sword Sect!" Luo Tianxing's gaze turned cold upon hearing this. "They've gone too far! How dare they attack you openly in broad daylight!"

"They're courting death!" Luo Tianxing looked at Gu Chen and said, "I'll take care of this for you. Let's head over to Jiuwan City right now."

"I want to see who gave that fifth-rank expert from the Qingyun Sword Sect the courage to attack my junior brother," Luo Tiantian sneered.

"Thank you very much, Senior Brother." Gu Chen was secretly delighted.

They left the Yuehai County Night Watch Division directly with Luo Tianxing.

After leaving the city of Yuehai County.

Luo Tianxing took Gu Chen and flew towards Jiuwan City.

As a fourth-rank expert, his flight speed was much faster than Gu Chen's.

He couldn't resist going to see it.

Who gave that fifth-rank expert from the Qingyun Sword Sect the audacity to attack his junior brother?

Did he not know that Gu Chen was his master Shangguan Wuqing's newly accepted disciple?

Or perhaps they already know Gu Chen's identity and simply want to provoke their master.

The two flew at high speed.

Less than half an hour later.

Then they returned to Jiuwan City.

After bringing Luo Tianxing back to the Night Watch of Jiuwan City, Gu Chen summoned Lin Fei and Liang Xiaoyun and asked, "Where are those people from the Qingyun Sword Sect now? Have they left Jiuwan City yet?"

"No, they are still staying at the inn where they have been staying for the past few days. It seems that Liu Chen is seriously injured and cannot set off back for the time being. They should rest for a day or two until Liu Chen's injuries have recovered somewhat before setting off back to the Qingyun Sword Sect," Liang Xiaoyun and Lin Fei replied.

Then the two looked at Luo Tianxing, whom Gu Chen had brought, and were immediately startled.

It turned out to be Luo Tianxing, the prefectural commander of the Yuehai County Night Watch, a top-tier expert of the fourth rank.

The two hurriedly bowed to Luo Tianxing: "Greetings, Lord Prefect."

They knew that Gu Chen had just gone to get reinforcements.

But he came back so quickly; I thought he hadn't gone to get reinforcements.

Unexpectedly, he brought over the magistrate of their Yuehai County.

With this fourth-rank master around, Tian Lie of the Qingyun Sword Sect is doomed.

"Okay." Luo Tianxing nodded and said, "Lead the way for me!"

He snorted coldly: "I want to see who this arrogant figure from the Qingyun Sword Sect is, daring to openly attack an official of my Night Watch."

"Yes." The two men received the order and immediately led the way for Luo Tianxing and Gu Chen.

Leaving the Night Watch, we headed towards Nine Bays City.

They went to the inn where the Qingyun Sword Sect members were staying.

After leaving the Night Watch, Gu Chen said to the guards, "Go and inform the City Lord's Mansion, the City Guard, the Inspectorate and the Divine Garment Division, as well as the various forces in Jiuwan City, to summon them to the Jiuwan City Martial Arts Arena. Make a big show of it and gather the people of Jiuwan City as well. I want to give them a good show and also teach some outsiders a lesson about the law, so they know what happens if they dare to attack officials of the Divine Dynasty."

"Yes, sir." The night watchmen immediately carried out Gu Chen's instructions upon receiving the order.

Not long after.

The group then relayed Gu Chen's arrangements to the others.

The heads of the four major official institutions in Jiuwan City—the City Lord's Mansion, the City Guard, the Supervisory Bureau, and the Divine Garment Bureau—all received the news.

They didn't understand.

They could only gather at the martial arts arena as Gu Chen had requested.

They had no idea what Gu Chen was up to.

Less than two hours had passed since Gu Chen was beaten.

What's going on? Gu Chen went to get reinforcements and came back so quickly.

We need to bring them over to see the show.

It's not just those four official institutions.

People from the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, Liuyun Chamber of Commerce, Jiuwanlou, Tianwan Gang, Zhu Family, Qiao Family, Yu Family, and other powerful families in Jiuwan City were all gathered at the square.

I want to see what kind of medicine Gu Chen is selling in his gourd.

Did he invite the higher-ups of the Night Watch to avenge his humiliation?

Huang Jinyu and his gang of mining gang members, along with Feng Yuan and his family members, were also gathered together.

There are also Ye Xuemei and others from Cold Wind Valley.

The three of them did not leave immediately. They had all suffered some injuries in their battle with Gu Chen today and planned to rest for a few days to recover before leaving.

I'll also take this opportunity to organize what I've gained from this trip.

To their surprise, shortly after they returned to their inn, Gu Chen sent someone to tell them to come and see the show.

They claimed they wanted to educate them about the law and let them know what would happen to those who openly attacked officials of the Divine Dynasty!

at this time.

Outside the inn where Liu Chen and other members of the Qingyun Sword Sect were staying.

Liang Xiaoyun and Lin Fei had already arrived with Gu Chen and Luo Tianxing.

"Sir, this is the place," Lin Fei said, pointing to the inn.

Gu Chen nodded.

Then he shouted towards the inn: "The Divine Dynasty's Night Watch has come to arrest the criminals who attacked Divine Dynasty officials. All bystanders, get out of the way. Everyone inside, come out and be questioned."
