Investing In My Crippled Heavenly Empress Wife Gets 100,000x Returns

”What’s going on?”

”Is that Zhao Hengjiang from the Qingtian Alliance? He’s back again!”

”Hiss... look behind him, that’s Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun, the Deputy Alliance Leader of the Qingtian Alliance.”

”There’s also Yang Shihai and Liu Mang, two at the Great Power Realm Fifth Level. My god, the Qingtian Alliance is truly enraged.”

”For one Chen Chuan, they actually dispatched one at the Great Power Realm Eighth Level and two at the Great Power Realm Fifth Level? They think too highly of him, don’t they?”

Exclamations rose everywhere. Curious, sympathetic, or gloating gazes projected from all directions, focusing on this small courtyard.

Many Disciples stopped at a distance, not daring to get too close, fearing they would be caught in the coming storm.

When they clearly saw Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun’s cold face and the two fierce-looking helpers beside him.

The same thought rose in everyone’s mind simultaneously: Chen Chuan is finished.

”Sigh, what a pity. For Chen Chuan to be able to cripple Li Feiyun at the First Layer of the Great Power Realm, he is definitely a Genius.”

”So what if he’s a Genius? He doesn’t know how to restrain himself; being too rigid makes one easy to break. Having provoked the Qingtian Alliance, there’s no more room for him in the Outer Sect.”

”Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun is a genuine Great Power Realm Eighth Level, far from being comparable to a medicine jar like Li Feiyun. No matter how strong Chen Chuan is, could he possibly fight against the Eighth Level?”

”What’s more, with Yang Shihai and Liu Mang standing by, all paths of retreat are blocked. This is a certain-kill situation.”

The discussions were filled with the judgment of Chen Chuan’s fate.

No one believed he could emerge intact after today.

Inside the courtyard, Wang Lan and Yang Shu turned pale, their bodies shaking like sieves.

The faint Spiritual Pressure emanating from Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun was as heavy as an iceberg, making it difficult for them even to breathe.

Their hearts were cold. Just a moment ago, they were looking forward to obtaining the thousand-year blood lingzhi with Chen Chuan, but in the blink of an eye, they had fallen into a desperate situation.

In stark contrast to their fear was Chen Chuan’s near-indifferent calm.

He didn’t even stand up, still sitting peacefully on the stone bench, as if those who burst in weren’t a group of fierce enemies, but a few buzzing flies.

Zhao Hengjiang enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention, and even more, he enjoyed the miserable end Chen Chuan was about to face.

Pointing at Chen Chuan, the malice and pleasure on his face almost overflowed as he laughed wildly:

”Chen Chuan! You little bastard! You didn’t expect this, did you? I’m back, and I’ve brought the Senior Brothers from the Qingtian Alliance back with me.”

”The humiliation and pain you inflicted on me that day, today, I want you to pay it back a hundredfold, a thousandfold.”

”Kneel down and kowtow for mercy! Crawl over like a dog and lick the soles of my shoes. Maybe if I’m in a good mood, I’ll let Senior Brother Yue give you a quick end.”

Chen Chuan slowly raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping over Zhao Hengjiang like he was looking at trash, a very faint sneer curling at the corner of his mouth.

”Lick the soles of your shoes?” Chen Chuan’s voice was flat and calm. ”Are you even worthy?”

Those three light words were like a loud slap, fiercely striking Zhao Hengjiang’s face.

The wild laughter on his face instantly froze, replaced by a liver-colored hue from extreme humiliation.

He hadn’t expected that even with three powerful experts surrounding him, Chen Chuan would still dare to be so arrogant.

”You’re looking for death!” Zhao Hengjiang trembled with rage and turned to Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun, screaming: ”Senior Brother Yue! Do you see? How rampant this scoundrel is! Please take action, Senior Brother, beat him half to death first, I want to deal with him personally.”

Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun nodded slightly, his cold gaze locking onto Chen Chuan like a hawk onto its prey.

He took a step forward, and his Great Power Realm Eighth Level Spiritual Pressure surged toward Chen Chuan like a tide, attempting to suppress him with momentum and make him lose heart before the fight.

”Chen Chuan, is it?” Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun spoke, his voice carrying a high-and-mighty indifference:

”Now, kneel down and kowtow to Junior Brother Zhao to admit your mistake, then obediently hand over all the Saint Pills and Origin Stones on you. I might consider only breaking your limbs and leaving you your lowly life.”

He had already learned from Zhao Hengjiang that Chen Chuan possessed great wealth, and at this moment, he didn’t hide his predatory intentions.

In his eyes, Chen Chuan was no different from a fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered.

However, facing the Spiritual Pressure and threats that would be enough to break an ordinary First Layer of the Great Power Realm Disciple, Chen Chuan slowly stood up.

He flexed his wrists, and the Nine Revolutions Battle Scripture quietly circulated within him. A similarly resilient and powerful Aura emanated from his body; though not ostentatious, it steadily withstood that overwhelming Spiritual Pressure.

”I do have Saint Pills and Origin Stones.” Chen Chuan looked at Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun, his eyes showing no fear, but rather a heart-palpitating confidence:

”But you’re not qualified to take them. Moreover, I’m curious, when you kneel and beg for mercy later, will you look a bit better than Zhao Hengjiang?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire field was shocked!

”Crazy! He’s absolutely crazy!” a Disciple exclaimed in shock.

”How dare he speak so arrogantly in front of Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun? Where does he get his confidence?”

”A First Layer of the Great Power Realm provoking a Great Power Realm Eighth Level? In all my years since joining the Sect, I’ve never seen anyone so arrogant.”

Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun was stunned, then as if he had heard the world’s biggest joke, he burst into laughter along with Yang Shihai and Liu Mang behind him.

Zhao Hengjiang laughed even harder, doubling over as if Chen Chuan had told the funniest joke in the world.

”Good, good, good!” Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun’s laughter stopped abruptly, his face turning completely dark, Killing Intent flashing in his eyes. ”Since you refuse the easy way and insist on the hard way, I will personally break your bones and see if you can still be so stubborn.”

Before his voice even faded, Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun’s figure suddenly moved, approaching Chen Chuan like a ghost.

He clenched his right fist, which was dotted with starlight, as if it condensed the power of shattering stars, creating a piercing sound of breaking air.

”It’s Senior Brother Yue’s powerful Cultivation Technique, the Broken Star Fist!”

”Using his ultimate move right from the start, Senior Brother Yue wants to end this quickly and establish his authority!”

”It’s over, Chen Chuan won’t even be able to take one move!”

The surrounding Disciples exclaimed, as if they could already see the image of Chen Chuan’s bones breaking and tendons snapping.

Facing this incomparably fierce punch, Chen Chuan’s pupils narrowed slightly, but he did not retreat.

The first revolution of the Nine Revolutions Battle Scripture within him circulated rapidly, his blood like mercury and his Spiritual Power surging.

The powerful Physical Body strength given to him by the Chaos Divine Body perfectly fused with his pure Spiritual Power, all gathering in his right fist.

He didn’t use any fancy Martial Techniques; he simply met it with a straightforward punch.

”He actually dares to take it head-on?” Everyone thought Chen Chuan was insane.

”Boom!”

The two fists collided like two small mountains crashing together, erupting with a dull, thunderous roar.

A violent airwave swept out from the center of the two, kicking up all the dust and debris in the courtyard, making the onlookers’ clothes flutter loudly.

The expected scene of Chen Chuan being blown away by a single punch did not happen.

Under everyone’s unbelievable gazes, Chen Chuan’s figure swayed slightly and then stood firm.

Meanwhile, Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun, who had initiated the attack, was actually shaken back half a step.

”What?”

”He blocked it? Senior Brother Yue’s Broken Star Fist was blocked by someone at the First Layer of the Great Power Realm?”

”How is this possible?”

Exclamations rose like a tsunami.

The confidence and contempt on Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun’s face instantly solidified, replaced by a thick, unshakeable shock.

He felt as if his fist had smashed into a piece of divine iron, and the counter-shock force made his entire arm feel somewhat numb.

”You...”

Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun’s expression changed drastically.

He finally realized that this kid before him, who was only at the First Layer of the Great Power Realm, was definitely no ordinary person.

”You have some tricks, but you’re still going to lose!”

Vice Alliance Master Yue Buyun suppressed the shock in his heart, roared, and attacked again.

The Broken Star Fist was pushed to its limit by him. Punch shadows filled the sky, and starlight exploded, smashing toward Chen Chuan like a meteor shower. The attack was extremely sharp; he was clearly no longer holding back.
