Chapter 328: Swift Ascent
Clearly, Xu Chen was deliberately making things difficult.
He might have entertained the idea of attempting the Heavenly Ladder, but he certainly didn’t intend to try it immediately.
And yet, when Jing Yan wanted to go first, he obstructed, making it obvious that he was bullying Jing Yan.
Jing Yan’s complexion darkened as well. Before, when Xu Chen had said he would go first and instructed Jing Yan to wait to try the Heavenly Ladder until after him, Jing Yan had thought it reasonable. But now, Xu Chen had no intention of ascending the Ladder, yet he expected Jing Yan to just stand around waiting.
With a cold laugh, Jing Yan continued to walk towards the Heavenly Ladder.
Since Xu Chen didn’t wish to attempt it immediately, then he could just wait.
Seeing Jing Yan continue toward the Heavenly Ladder, Xu Chen’s gaze turned cold. He hadn’t expected Jing Yan to dare to do so; this country bumpkin actually dared to defy Xu Chen, the fourth-ranked powerhouse on the War God List.
"Hey! The Heavenly Ladder isn’t so easy to climb, why the rush to try?" Tong Qiushui said as she watched Jing Yan’s retreating back.
Jing Yan’s potential success on the Heavenly Ladder didn’t concern her. However, now that Jing Yan was determined to try, he would undoubtedly offend Xu Chen, so Qiushui, not wanting to see Jing Yan get hurt by Xu Chen’s hand, spoke those words of caution.
"Perhaps it’s not that difficult!" Jing Yan turned and glanced at Qiushui as he spoke.
Qiushui shook her head and said nothing more.
She had offered her advice, but Jing Yan hadn’t listened. Whatever Xu Chen would do to him later was his own fault.
