Chapter 251: Chapter 251

Jiang Chen had stayed away from others’ negative influences. He had been wholeheartedly striving for his goal to become a Reaching Heaven State.

Although, even if he made it, it would be a little different from the real Reaching Heaven State.

He wouldn’t be able to revenge himself on Ning Haotian, since he broke through to the Reaching Heaven State from the peak of the middle stage directly.

In addition, he hadn’t formed any holy points in the Eight Extraordinary Meridians.

Even if he achieved the Reaching Heaven State, he would actually only be halfway there.

However, after that phase, it would take him less time to form holy points and take in the spirits of the universe as a Reaching Heaven State.

The only disadvantage was that it would bring him criticism.

In others’ eyes, he would be a myopic fool.

Nevertheless, was it worthy for him to give up much better practicing conditions just because of this criticism?

Absolutely not.

Jiang Chen was even keeping his distance from Shi Gandang now that he was working on breaking through to the Reaching Heaven State, since if he told him but failed to convince him, the Sacred Institute might stop training him immediately.

Days went by. In the blink of an eye, two months had passed since they had arrived at the Sacred Institute.

Many short-term disciples had been eliminated. They had cried at their failures and been sent back, but those who had managed to stay had improved a lot, like Jiang Chen.

They had also gradually adapted to life in the Sacred Institute and were able to face others’ disdain calmly.

“The Sacred Institute will fall into their hands if things go on like this!”

It was something unacceptable for some disciples of the Sacred Institute.

“It’s all Jiang Chen’s fault.”

Jiang Chen had become the representative of the short-term disciples. It was thanks to him that they had regained confidence and stopped being afraid of competing with the formal disciples.

It was hard to swallow for many proud disciples of the Sacred Institute.

Since the Sacred Institute appreciated Jiang Chen a lot, the disciples ranked in the top 100 of the overall list didn’t want to offend him.

If they started any trouble, the Sacred Institute would punish them severely, but there would be a favorable turn for them soon.

News came from the superfine class of the south courtyard, saying that their class leader would return from an adventure soon and would pick a fight with Jiang Chen.

A name occurred to the disciples of the Sacred Institute immediately.

Su Li!

He was the class leader of the superfine class of the south courtyard, ranked in the top 100 of the overall list of the four courtyards. He had formed forty-nine holy points and was working on his third extraordinary meridian. He had accomplished the great achievement of the creation of metal and achieved the minor doctrine. He was in the peak of the late stage. Both his martial arts techniques and methods were first-class.

It was imaginable how formidable the guy was.

Lin Yu and Zhuang Tian, who had been defeated by Jiang Chen, weren’t comparable to Su Li at all, and he wasn’t only coming to pick a fight with Jiang Chen, but was going to disable one of his arms!

According to the rumor, it was because Jiang Chen had offended the Sus in the Fire Field.

No one cared about what exactly he had done. It was enough for them to know Su Li would come forward.

The disciples of the Sacred Institute that were unhappy with their current situation became high and mighty again. They would give mysterious smiles whenever they saw short-term disciples at the Sacred Institute.

Even Jiang Chen had detected the change.

The formal disciples he met had always looked at him in an offending way, as if something terrible would befall him soon.

Jiang Chen was completely ignorant to what was going on, since he was focusing on the state breakthrough. He couldn’t figure it out until Crimson Moon told him about it.

“Su Li? I don’t know him.”

It was Jiang Chen’s first trip to the Dragon Field. Of course he didn’t know anybody, but it dawned on him what this was about when he heard the guy was going to disable his arm.

He had slapped the first lady of the Black Dragon City the other day and she had claimed he would pay a price for it.

It looked she was a person that followed her word.

“How could you always have so much trouble? Whoever hangs out with you must be very unlucky,” Crimson Moon said.

“I didn’t ask for it. What can I do? By the way, Your Highness, are you here because you care about me?” Jiang Chen said.

It sounded like a big joke to Crimson Moon. She said, “Of course not. I just want to see you suffer. It’s impossible for you to defeat that Su Li this time, no matter how casual you are about the fight, no matter what ace in the hole you have.”

“You’re right. That Su Li does sound great if what you said is true,” Jiang Chen agreed.

“Oh?”

Crimson Moon was surprised, but she wasn’t as happy as she had thought.

“It’ll be good for you to learn a lesson,” Crimson Moon said.

Jiang Chen pretended it would be tricky for him. He smiled bitterly and said, “Princess, thank you for telling me about it, but you’re being too scornful to me. You’re in my room. Aren’t you afraid I’ll do something to you?”

They were alone in the room save for Whitty, who was sleeping.

“Do you dare?”

Crimson Moon didn’t care. She wasn’t even embarrassed. Instead, she still despised him.

As a princess, she was too proud to wave the white flag in front of Jiang Chen.

Whitty had woken by then. He suddenly started to play with a red ribbon in boredom.

Crimson Moon found it familiar. When she confirmed what it was, her expression changed.

“Whitty!”

Jiang Chen hurried to grab it when Whitty was close to leaving his saliva on the red ribbon.

Crimson Moon recalled what had happened in the fight again.

“Hehe.”

Jiang Chen was embarrassed, too. He put the red ribbon on the screen in his room.

“Throw it away!” Crimson Moon said coldly.

“But princess, didn’t you ask me to keep it?” Jiang Chen said.

Crimson Moon opened her eyes wide and stared at him. She had said that, but she had been in a rage. She was disturbed when she saw something that had been next to her skin in Jiang Chen’s room.

“In fact, you also have something to do with the problem between Su Li and me,” Jiang Chen tried to distract her.

“Why is that?” Crimson Moon sneered.

Jiang Chen told her what had happened on the pagoda. He said, “Ning Haotian’s mother is your mother-in-law. Of course you have something to do with it.”

“Oh yeah, the Sus, Su Li.”

Crimson Moon finally associated him with the Sus. “You asked for it. The Sus are an aristocratic family of inheritance. He might disable the hand you used to slap my mother-in-law for real,” she said disdainfully after her doubt had been cleared.

“Maybe…”

They heard loud noises while Jiang Chen was speaking.

He and Crimson Moon looked at each other and walked out of the room together.

Everyone outside was looking up at the sky, and they could hear water falling on the ground.

“It’s raining?”

Jiang Chen reached out a hand and a drop fell into his hand. It was blood!

Crimson Moon looked up. Just like the others, she couldn’t help but exclaimed.

“Is that a holy-level monster?”

There was a huge holy-level monster in the air, like a black cloud. It was dead.

A spear had pierced through its body. The youngster who was holding the other end of the spear flew across the sky. The monster’s blood was raining over the Sacred Institute.

“Su Li!”

“He’s back from the adventure the Sacred Institute assigned him!”

After the shock, everyone beside Jiang Chen, including Crimson Moon, looked towards him.

There was gloating, sympathy, and pity, which he was too familiar with.

Su Li was back. He was going to disable Jiang Chen’s arm!
