Chapter 586 - 583: A Move to Insult the Enemy
However, just after leaving the cell, Ling Chen encountered several people blocking his path ahead.
Seeing the man standing at the front, a flash of surprise crossed Ling Chen’s eyes. But it soon turned cold, his gaze sharp and wild as that of a beast.
"Yi Shuiyan." Ling Chen enunciated every syllable of the other’s name, "I really didn’t expect to run into you here." After speaking, Ling Chen glanced at the Dangyang Sect disciples behind Yi Shuiyan and said with a mocking smile, "So the Dangyang Sect is willing to play lapdog for the God Organization. I’m not at all surprised."
"Ling Chen, cut the nonsense. It’s not your place to judge the actions of the Dangyang Sect," Yi Shuiyan said with a ferrous face. "I do admire your courage for barging in here, do you not fear death?"
"Death?" Ling Chen said mockingly, "Yi Shuiyan, don’t forget, you were defeated by me. To deal with you, one hand is enough."
After saying this, Ling Chen, supporting Nanrong Wanqing with one hand, slowly stretched out his right hand, palm up, and curled a finger at Yi Shuiyan, making a provocative gesture.
Seeing his action, Yi Shuiyan’s face grew even uglier, his eyes filled with raging anger, as if he wished to brutally slaughter Ling Chen.
However, he wasn’t hot-headed. He knew how to contain his anger, especially considering the lesson from last time; he was well aware of Ling Chen’s strength. Now, he indeed wasn’t Ling Chen’s match.
"Do you think that just because you claimed the top newcomer spot, you can look down on everyone?" Yi Shuiyan spoke coldly.
Ling Chen shook his head and replied, "I’ve never thought that. There are skies beyond skies, people beyond people. Huaxia is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers; there are many more powerful than me. But right now, it’s just you and me. In my eyes, you’re someone I’ve defeated before, is there a problem with that? If you want to turn things around, rely on your own skills and stop wasting time with words. I remember you used to be forthright; how come you’ve become so nagging now? Could it be that after the Heavenly Mechanism Great Ceremony, you took a trip to Thailand?"
