After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 38

The scene was very quiet for a while and also a bit awkward.

After taking a closer look at Lin Mubai, Jiang Chen suddenly realized.

“Well played, Lin Mubai, I really underestimated you! I didn’t expect you to counter my killing move in such a way! Utterly shameless! Inhuman!”

Hearing this, the disciples were speechless once again.

The guy already knelt down! And you’re still calling him shameless?

Who’s really the shameless one here? Don’t you have any sense?

“No wonder I felt a strong sword intent coming from Jiang Chen just now! So he was holding back a killing move!”

After a long silence, Li Fadu finally came to a realization.

“It must be a very powerful technique. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have taken so much time.”

“If you were to spar with Jiang Chen, are you confident you could win?”

Li Fadu asked.

“Borrowing a phrase from Jiang Chen…” the young man said with a confident smile, not modest at all.

“…One move! I only need one move to make him lose immediately! He won’t even have the chance to use his trump card!”

Faced with such confident words, Li Fadu did not question him but instead agreed deeply.

The people from the Hall of Enforcement were also the cream of the crop from various peaks. And the young man beside him, naturally, was no exception!

His name was Zhou Jian (周剑), named after the sword (剑), a rare Innate Sword Body.

Zhou Jian started practicing the sword at the age of three and achieved Beginner level in the Way of the Sword in the same year, obtaining the Sword Heart.

At five, he was taken in by the Jiuyan Sect’s Sword Peak, and by the age of ten, he reached Minor Achievement in the Way of the Sword, manifesting his Sword Qi!

The following year, he was promoted to become the number one true disciple of Sword Peak!

In the Way of the Sword, Zhou Jian’s talent is undoubtedly far superior to his fellow disciples!

It is well known that the Way of the Sword is profound, requiring specialization and many years of dedication.

This also results in sword cultivators having slightly lower cultivation levels compared to other cultivators of the same age.

However, in exchange, they possess the combat power to fight across realm!

Why was Li Fadu able to take charge of the Hall of Enforcement with just a peak Heavenly Origin cultivation level?

Isn’t it because he not only came from the Sword Peak but was also a sword cultivator?

And then there’s Zhou Jian.

Aside from his talent in the Way of the Sword, his own cultivation talent should not be underestimated.

Zhou Jian was one year younger than Jiang Chen and the same age as Jiang Lianyue.

Just a few days ago, he broke through to the Earthly Origin realm!

An Earthly Origin realm cultivator at the mere age of eighteen and a sword cultivator! Even if placed in the Upper Domain, such talent would definitely be considered a prodigy!

These were the reasons Zhou Jian looked down on others!

Li Fadu looked at Zhou Jian with admiration and smiled with satisfaction.

Then, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was planning something.

“Enough, let’s end this spar here.”

Xiao Hongyi suddenly spoke up, breaking the eerie atmosphere.

At this moment, her head hurt even more.

She finally understood that expecting a madman to have a proper spar was unrealistic!

“How can this be?”

Jiang Chen was the first to object, “Master, the sect rules state that once you step onto this sparring stage, a victor must be determined! As the Eldest Senior Brother of Ninth Peak, how can I not set an example?”

“…Mubai has gone mad.”

Xiao Hongyi’s mouth twitched.

“So what if he’s mad? I didn’t force him to accept the challenge! Besides, when Second Junior Brother accepted the challenge, Master, didn’t you agreed to it even knowing he was mad?”

Jiang Chen asked again.

“This…”

Xiao Hongyi was at a loss for words.

She thought about it carefully and felt that indeed, it wouldn’t be fair to treat them differently.

If the situation is favorable, agree to spar with Lin Mubai, but if not, cancel?

That’s definitely not something a master should do!

“In that case, Mubai, you might as well surrender.”

Xiao Hongyi added.

His words made the hearts of the onlookers sink to the bottom.

After all, they had paid money for this…

“No! I, Lin Mubai, will not surrender today!!”

Lin Mubai suddenly roared.

His words brightened the eyes of the crowd!

But the next second, their expressions turned strange.

After all, making such a declaration while kneeling doesn’t seem very credible!

“Good, it seems that my Second Junior Brother still has the will to fight!”

Jiang Chen smiled with satisfaction and began to prepare his powerful move again.

He had laid the groundwork for this spar for so long, naturally, he was not willing to cancel it.

The same old saying.

As the villainous Eldest Senior Brother, he had to show everyone just how strong he was!

The crowd tensed up again.

But what they got was not Lin Mubai standing up, but the sound of his continuous crying:

“Eldest Senior Brother, you’re right, I’ve gone too far! I’m simply not human!”

“You can tell me to kneel and admit defeat, but surrendering is impossible.”

“If I surrender, then you won’t be able to beat me up…”

“Eldest Senior Brother, don’t be soft-hearted. The harder you beat me, the better, I can take anything!”

“Surrendering is out of the question, but I can kneel.”

“Today, I will kneel and let you hit me, even if you beat me to death, I will never surrender!”

“Wuuu, Eldest Senior Brother!!”

The crying grew louder and louder until, finally, he was sobbing uncontrollably.

The crowd sighed in despair.

After so many shocks, they had become somewhat numb.

But no one had expected.

After all this fuss, Lin Mubai was just here to be beaten by Jiang Chen!

All the bold words from before, they had misunderstood!

They knew Lin Mubai was crazy but didn’t expect him to be this crazy!

And they had paid money to see Jiang Chen get beaten, not to watch Lin Mubai cry like a woman, insisting on being beaten by Jiang Chen!

Damn it! Refund!

After a brief silence, Jiang Chen was also a bit stunned.

He didn’t care how crazy Lin Mubai was. He was just pondering one question…

If someone is begging to be beaten, wouldn’t it be too embarrassing not to oblige?

But Lin Mubai’s crying was so over the top, with snot and tears everywhere, he couldn’t bring himself to do it!

It wasn’t that he couldn’t bear it, but the thought of all those snot and tears getting on him during the beating…

Just the thought made Jiang Chen shiver and get goosebumps all over! “Enough, I won’t beat you today. Next time, you… just stay away from me.”

With that, Jiang Chen prepared to cancel his move and leave!

It proved that one really shouldn’t fight a madman!

Seeing this, Xiao Hongyi breathed a sigh of relief.

She was really worried that under such circumstances, Jiang Chen would still strike him.

The audience also felt bored, and although they still felt like they had spent money on nothing, they could only leave.

But before the crowd could take action.

“Eldest Senior Brother, Eldest Senior Brother, you can’t leave!”

Lin Mubai suddenly jumped up and grabbed Jiang Chen’s leg, wailing like a banshee.

“Hit me, hit me now! If you don’t hit me, I’m going to go crazy!”

“Aren’t you already crazy enough?”

Jiang Chen kicked him away.

“No, I’m not crazy. I’ve never been as clear-headed as I am today!”

Leaping up from the ground, Lin Mubai shouted loudly.

As he spoke, his expression gradually twisted into a ferocious snarl, and the machete that was nurtured within his Purple Mansion materialized in his hand!

Seeing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment, then a wave of excitement followed.

“What’s the matter, you want to fight or not?”

Jiang Chen voiced what everyone was thinking.

After speaking, he continued to charge up his powerful move.

Lin Mubai didn’t respond but quickly raised the machete in his hand, his aura surging as thick blood vessels appeared in his eyes!

He was ready to fight to the death!

Jiang Chen was startled and sped up the charging of his powerful move.

Holding the machete, Lin Mubai’s body trembled.

He infused his vital energy into the blade, and the once plain machete suddenly burst into a dazzling brilliance!

“This is… the beginner level of the Way of the Saber, the blade moves with the heart!” (TLN: Different from Way of the Sword (double-edged), Saber here means single-edged blade.)

An elder skilled with sabers exclaimed.

It’s only been a few days, and he’s reached the beginner level of the Way of the Saber?

Jiang Chen was shocked once more and put even more effort into charging his powerful move!

Finally, his powerful move was fully charged!

At the same time, Lin Mubai also raised his machete, creating multiple blade shadows!

“I didn’t want to bother with a madman, but since the madman doesn’t play by the rules, I won’t be polite! This move is called, Ancient Sword Technique…”

Jiang Chen made the first move, swinging his blood sword as he spoke.

“If Senior Brother is unwilling to hit me, then today I will dig out my own bones and offer it to Senior Brother!!”

Lin Mubai suddenly roared in anger.

As he finished speaking.

His machete swung straight towards his own chest.

Jiang Chen: “????”
