Fantasy: The Clan Chief Lies Down, His House Is Full of Emperors

If an ordinary Heavenly Palace Level 3 cultivator encounters a Heavenly Palace Level 7 cultivator, they will almost certainly be instantly killed.

But Xu Chen is a top-tier spiritual body and a figure on the Prodigy Ranking. Even if he can't beat him, he can escape from him without breaking a sweat.

The plump, white monk from Tianhua Temple could only chase after Xu Chen for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea before he disappeared.

He was so angry that he kept cursing.

"Damn it! If I'd known this kid was so fast, I wouldn't have wasted so much breath and would have just launched a sneak attack!!"

He thought he was four levels higher than Xu Chen, and since Xu Chen had just finished fighting a great demon, he could easily manipulate Xu Chen.

That's why he stepped forward and said a few more words, not expecting Xu Chen to run away so easily.

The thought of that rare ore made his heart ache, and he wished he could dig three feet into the ground to find Xu Chen.

But this place is barren and there's nothing here. How long would it take to dig?

So the chubby monk, having come up empty-handed, could only return home helplessly.

He had only been gone a short while when Xu Chen appeared.

"Now we can add another item to Tianhua Temple's tally!"

They swallowed Xu Luo's cultivation technique but did nothing with it before, and this time they failed to rob Xu Chen. Once they have enough strength, they will definitely be taught a lesson!

Xu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and was just about to take out the ore to admire it when a fluctuation came from the space beside him. He felt himself being locked onto by a powerful killing intent.

"Yeah!"

The bone-chilling cold made Xu Chen's soul tremble. When a short sword was still several feet away from his chest, he finally reacted and took out a talisman to use.

"boom!!"

The gleaming short sword pierced Xu Chen's activated shield. Although it blocked the fatal blow, the enormous impact sent Xu Chen flying as if he had been hit by a ferocious beast.

Before Xu Chen could even regain his footing, he sensed the impending killing intent. His hair stood on end, and he took out another protective jade pendant to block the attack.

"You really are afraid of death, yet you have so many trump cards to save your life."

A mocking voice came from the person dressed in black, with only their eyes showing.

Xu Chen was on edge, pondering an escape route while asking, "Who are you? Are you with that monk?"

"We, the Assassins, will never associate with a bunch of bald monks," the man in black said with a tone full of disdain.

If that fat, white monk from earlier had heard him say that, I wonder if he would have started a fight with him.

Xu Chen asked in surprise, "Are you an assassin from the Hidden Assassins?"

He had heard of Hidden Assassins long ago, back in the Great Qi Dynasty, when Xu Qingzhou ruined the Ninth Prince's plans, and the Ninth Prince spent a lot of money to hire assassins from Hidden Assassins to kill Xu Qingzhou.

Fortunately, Xu Qingzhou was lucky and made rapid progress, which allowed him to survive three assassination attempts by the Hidden Assassins.

Xu Chen was surprised that now the Hidden Assassins were coming to assassinate him. Did someone want him to die?

The man in black seemed to have read his thoughts and casually said, "Let you die knowing why. I am Bing Gu, number thirty-three on the Prodigy Ranking. No one hired someone to kill you. I just enjoy the feeling of hunting down prodigies."

He squinted, looking completely absorbed.

Xu Chen scoffed.

"Then why don't you go hunt down those ranked higher than you?"

Binggu was speechless for a moment.

Xu Chen did not stop his attack.

"You cowardly bully, you're no better than that bald monk who robbed us on the road."

These words immediately broke Binggu's defenses, and he instantly flew into a rage.

"You deserve to die!!"

Ice Bone attacked again. Although his cultivation level was not as high as that of the fat monk, his strength was exceptionally strong.

After all, his ranking on the Prodigy Ranking is higher than Xu Ying's and Xu Luo's.

Xu Chen was no match for him at all. After only a few rounds, he suffered some minor injuries, and if the fight continued, he would be seriously injured.

"You're dead today!!"

As soon as Binggu finished speaking, Xu Chen took out a teleportation jade platform, stepped onto it, and instantly disappeared.

Ok? ? ?

The Ice Bone Man was completely dumbfounded.

Although Xu Chen didn't touch him at all, and there was no one else around, he felt his face burning.

After all, he had just said something harsh, and the other person ran away the next moment. It was too embarrassing.

In the end, all Ice Bone could do was say something viciously.

"This kid has way too many trump cards to save his life!"

Xu Chen is always looking for bargains; no one has as many treasures as him.

If Xu Chen were to use all his trump cards, he could even kill Bing Gu, who was ranked twelve places higher than him and was even more powerful than Xu Ying and Xu Luo.

He felt it was a waste to use such precious things on himself, so he chose to retreat.

If Binggu knew what he was thinking, he would be even angrier. This person really looked down on him, thinking that using the treasure on himself was a waste!

Xu Chen was quite lucky; the teleportation platform actually teleported him directly to the vicinity of Duanshan City.

So he decided to go straight back to the Xu family to rest and recuperate, and then find a suitable opportunity to go out and pick up bargains later.

"This teleportation platform is really useful, but it's a pity that it's so rare. I only have three so far."

Back in the Great Chu Dynasty, when Xu Qingzhou and his companions were ambushed by the Prince of Zhennan and his men at Luomuling, they were able to escape safely only by using a precious teleportation jade platform.

Unless the enemy is significantly stronger than oneself, one can generally escape smoothly using the teleportation platform.

This thing is extremely complicated to make, and the materials required are also very rare.

Normal cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Integration Realm don't even have that many; only Xu Chen, the lucky one, could have three.

When Xu Chen returned to the Xu family home, he ran into Xu Muge and his group, who were about to leave.

"You look weak and unsteady. Did you just get into a fight?"

"Don't even mention it, I almost didn't make it back," Xu Chen said speechlessly.

Xu Muge asked, "What exactly happened?"

Xu Chen briefly recounted what had just happened.

This is why he has so many trump cards to save his life; if it were anyone else, they would have died at least three times over.

Xu Muge sneered, "Very well, we'll wipe out Tianhua Temple and Yinsha sooner or later!"

Qu Wubing didn't speak, but he had already secretly noted down these two forces.

To be honest, Hidden Assassins do have some strength. Although they don't reach the level of the Holy Land Dynasty, they are about the same as the royal family of the Eight Ancient Kingdoms and the four major families of Broken Mountain City.

Furthermore, the Hidden Assassins are an assassination organization, making them even more secretive and therefore very bold. They dare to mess with any of the Xu family's prodigies, as long as they are not disciples of the three mansion lords.

However, Tianhua Temple is much weaker than Yinsha, and even weaker than the You family.

The fat, white monk dared to snatch Xu Chen because he didn't know Xu Chen was from the Xu family and was used to being arrogant and domineering.
