Taihuang Star Seal

Chapter 216: Twists and turns!

A second ago, Zhang Hao was still using his cousin, who was an outer disciple, to threaten Ding Chen.

Before he could finish his words, his little finger was stepped on and flattened!

Ding Chen's cold and icy words rang in his ears: "Tell me, who sent you to mess with me?"

Zhang Haoqiang endured the pain of his fingers piercing his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand!"

The young man pretended to be stupid, but he was thinking: "I must not involve my cousin in this!"

"My cousin has already reached the peak of the fourth level of the Soul Gathering Realm."

“I believe that it won’t be long before he can break through to the fifth level of the Soul Gathering Realm and be promoted to an [Inner Sect Disciple]…”

"If he leaves behind the stain of instigating a vicious fight among his fellow disciples, it will definitely affect his path to promotion."

"For now, I just have to keep silent and endure the pain at most."

According to the sect's laws, if you kill a fellow sect member, you must pay with your life!

That's why Zhang Hao could be sure that Ding Chen could at most beat him up.

This was exactly the same idea he had when he brought his men to look for Ding Chen in a threatening manner.

It’s okay to give him a beating.

Beat him to death? That won't do!

Zhang Hao's heart moved secretly: "I will just keep this account for today."

"After my cousin becomes an [Inner Disciple], I will find an opportunity to take revenge on you, a mere [Miscellaneous Disciple]. It will be as easy as crushing an ant..."

So Zhang Hao simply closed his eyes, looking like a dead pig that was not afraid of boiling water.

Ding Chen was not ambiguous either, and stepped down——

"puff!"

"Ahhhhh!!"

Along with a shrill cry of pain, the little finger of Zhang Hao's other hand was also crushed.

"Do you remember who it is now?"

Ding Chen asked again.

The coldly raised corners of his mouth, in the eyes of Zhang Hao and others, looked like an evil ghost carrying a beheading knife and licking his bloody tongue!

It's not just Zhang Hao and his group.

Even Liu Hong, who was watching the fun from the side, was frightened by the looming deathly aura emanating from Ding Chen's body and broke out in cold sweats.

"Brother Ding defeated five opponents whose profound energy cultivation was comparable to his in just the blink of an eye..."

"Such a powerful fighting force, I would like to call it invincible in the same level!"

"As expected of a favored child of heaven with a strong backstage!"

"Should I take action now and follow Senior Brother Ding to beat the fallen dog, so as to make a strong presence?"

"But the problem is, if Zhang Hao's cousin who is an outer disciple holds a grudge against me and retaliates against me, that would be dangerous!"

Just when Liu Hong was hesitating.

Not far away, a shout suddenly came: "How dare you harm your fellow disciples in public?!"

Liu Hong looked in the direction of the voice and saw a burly man with a strong build walking towards him.

Liu Hong's knees shook subconsciously: "Zhang, Zhang Di?"

"How come this guy came so fast?!"

Panic-stricken, he quickly whispered to Ding Chen: "Brother Ding, this man's name is Zhang Di, and he is Zhang Hao's cousin."

As a menial disciple, he doesn't have the time to learn the skill of [Soul Transmission].

He could only get as close as possible and lower his voice: "Zhang Di is one of the outer disciples with the highest Xuan Cultivation ability."

"It is said that he will soon be able to break through the fifth level of the Soul Gathering Realm and be promoted to an inner sect disciple..."

At this time, Zhang Hao also looked in the direction of the voice and recognized his cousin at a glance: "Brother, brother, save me, brother!"

"Hahahaha, Ding Chen, my brother is here!"

“Let’s see how you can still be so arrogant this time…Ahhhhhh!!”

Before Zhang Hao could finish his harsh words, Ding Chen took another step forward as if no one was around and accurately broke another of his fingers with his toes.

The pig-slaughtering howl once again echoed throughout the venue.

Zhang Di was stunned.

He thought that with the pressure of the "peak of the fourth level of the Soul Gathering Realm", he would be able to intimidate the ignorant young man as soon as he appeared on the scene.

But he never expected that Ding Chen was not timid after seeing him;

Instead, she continued to step on his fingers as if he didn't exist...

Zhang Di's eyelids jumped, and he was furious: "New guy, are you looking for death?!"

At this moment, facing Zhang Di's mysterious pressure that was like a wave, Ding Chen was as calm as the wind: "If I remember correctly, this is the first time we meet, right?"

"How do you know I'm 'new'?"

"Besides, you showed up right after your cousin was knocked down. Isn't that too much of a coincidence?"

"Unless, you are the mastermind behind the whole incident!"

Zhang Di's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

He suddenly felt that this young man, who had just arrived and should have been cautious in everything, was surprisingly calm and collected!

Just based on his own quick words, he had already sensed the truth...

Zhang Di was shocked and angry, and shouted: "You are a thief who murdered your fellow disciples, and you dare to accuse me first?"

"This cultivator will eliminate the evil for the sect!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Di raised his hand violently——

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..."

The next moment, several spikes condensed from the wood-type mysterious spiritual power pierced towards Ding Chen with wind and waves!

If before, Zhang Hao and others just wanted to beat Ding Chen up;

Now, Zhang Di, who felt that his authority was challenged, had already developed murderous intentions towards the young man in front of him!

"As an outer sect disciple, even if I 'accidentally' kill a new servant, with Zhang Hao and other 'witnesses', the most I would get is a fine of some spirit stones."

"And once I get rid of this thorn in the eye for Zhang Bingyao, who is a 'true disciple', the reward I can get afterwards will not be comparable to a few spirit stones."

There was murderous intent in Zhang Di's eyes!

Seeing this, Liu Hong was horrified and quickly stepped aside.

I thought to myself, "Forget it, forget it. I think I'd better not get involved in this matter."

"Lest you fail to flatter someone but end up losing your life first..."

Zhang Hao on the ground was overjoyed: "Hehe, since my cousin has personally taken action, Ding Chen will be crippled if not dead!"

Just before those spikes were about to penetrate Ding Chen's vital points -

"stop!"

"Whoo~"

As the urgent shout sounded, a nine-foot-wide wooden spirit palm print descended from the sky;

It was like an eagle swooping down on a rabbit. In the blink of an eye, it crushed all the spikes flying towards Ding Chen to the ground!

Everyone followed the sound.

The fat old man with big ears who came running over angrily was none other than the chief elder of the sect's outer layer [Miscellaneous Disciple Area]: Fang Jianfeng!

"Zhang Di, you are so brave!"

"How dare you kill your fellow junior brother?!"

Since Zhang Di is Zhang Hao's cousin, and the two often have contacts.

Therefore, Fang Jianfeng, the chief elder, immediately revealed Zhang Di's identity.

Zhang Di secretly said, "This Elder Fang who likes to stay in the hall every day and feels tired even when moving a finger..."

"Why did you come here and meddle in other people's business today?"

Happy Lantern Festival~~
