“I want this item.” When an indifferent voice rang out, a palm reached through the space, grabbing at the copper pieces in Mu Chen’s hand. That hand was as swift as a thunderbolt, catching people off guard.

If it were any ordinary person, he would not have reacted as someone snatched from him so blatantly. However, Mu Chen was clearly not in the ranks of ordinary people. His expression turned cold as the palm stretched over. A sharp glint surged in his dark eyes.

He ignored the pieces of copper that were about to be taken away, and he swiftly retracted his other hand. At the same time, the Holy Pagoda emerged in his eyes. Vast and powerful spiritual energy poured into his palm like a flood.

Buzz!

The spiritual energy materialized and converged on Mu Chen’s palm as if transforming into a tangible blade. The spiritual light blade vibrated, and even the space was torn apart. If the blade made contact, even a Complete Earthly Sovereign’s arm would be severed in an instant.

The sharp blade struck violently as a startled voice rang out. “Huh?” It was clear that the person who attacked had been frightened by Mu Chen’s fierce and decisive counterattack. If he insisted on grabbing the copper pieces, at the moment of success, Mu Chen would cut off his hand and still retain the copper pieces.

“Hmph.” The person pondered, and then he pointed. Majestic spiritual energy converged and charged viciously towards Mu Chen’s palm blade.

Crash!

The fingers and palm clashed together brutally. Spiritual energy ripples immediately burst out as the space fragmented and shattered like glass. Space debris scattered as Mu Chen and that shadow hurriedly retreated. Waving his sleeve, the torrential spiritual energy howled out, deflecting the sharp space debris.

As he retreated, Mu Chen then glared at the person who had struck as his eyes narrowed. He discovered that the person was no stranger but was Young Lord Mo Xin from the Budur Ancient Clan.

Mo Xin stared at Mu Chen expressionlessly as a chilling glint surged in his eyes. He reached out his palm and said nonchalantly, “Hand it over to me.”

His tone was flat, but there was a sense of pride. After all, with his status, few of the young people of the Budur Ancient Clan dared to rob him of what he wanted. Unfortunately, Mu Chen was not on this list, so when he heard what Mo Xin said, he just smiled and said casually, “Although you are of the Budur Ancient Clan, it seems that your parents have not taught you what politeness is.”

“Perpetrator, you are asking for death!” Hearing Mu Chen’s mockery, Mo Xin’s gaze grew cold, and murderous intention surged in his eyes. The region suddenly became chilling.

There were many people in this trading area, thus there were many pairs of eyes. At present, the confrontation between the two immediately attracted a lot of attention, but no one spoke to prevent it. Instead, they were interested in it. After all, there were no rules in this Ancient Holy Gulf. The hard truth was that only power was respected.

Many Sovereigns had heard of Mo Xin. After all, this was a Young Lord of the Ancient Budur Clan. Thus, they knew of Mo Xin’s strength, but what they were curious about was the young man named Mu Chen. He is only a Lower Earthly Sovereign. Where does his courage come from, for him to mock Mo Xin publicly?

Many gazes converged in this area, and on a boulder not far away, there were a number of figures stopping and looking in that direction. When they saw the confrontation between Mu Chen and Mo Xin, their faces changed.

A delicate but exasperated voice rang out, “This fellow doesn’t know what’s good for him. Why would he go and provoke Mo Xin?” The voice belonged to a pretty young girl who spoke as she stared anxiously in their direction. This girl was Qing Ling from the Budur Ancient Clan. Beside her, a fine woman clad in white robes and emanating a cold aura was naturally Qing Shuang of the Budur Ancient Clan.

She looked at the situation there as she frowned slightly. As a member of the Budur Ancient Clan, she naturally knew Mo Xin’s strength. Among the younger generation in the clan, he was the only one who could compete with Xuan Luo. If it was her, even if she exerted her full force, she could only remain undefeated. Gaining the upper hand was still impossible.

Mo Xin and Xuan Luo were at the top of being a Complete Earthly Sovereign and were only beneath invincible existences the likes of Heavenly Sovereigns. Mu Chen had clashed with him, and the consequences would be dire.

Thinking of this, Qing Shuang chewed on her red lips lightly and was about to step out. She had promised Aunt Xuan that she would try her best to help Mu Chen so that he wouldn’t be targeted by Xuan Luo and Mo Xin. Thus, even though she knew that it would be detrimental to her to offend Mo Xin, she still chose to come forward.

Seeing this, Qing Ling could not help but want to hold Qing Shuang back. After all, she was clear that it would pressurise Qing Shuang to conflict with Mo Xin. However, Qing Shuang only waved her hand, which made Qing Ling stop. She could only stomp her feet unwillingly, glaring at Mu Chen in the middle of the storm. Who would have thought they had only just arrived and were already dragged into this confrontation by Mu Chen.

She quickly kept up with Qing Shuang, but just then, Qing Shuang suddenly paused before halting in her tracks.

“Sister Qing Shuang, what’s the matter?” Qing Ling asked in confusion. Did Sister Qing Shuang change her mind again? But Mu Chen is Aunt Jing’s son, and is of Qing lineage. It would be hard to see him get attacked without doing anything.

At this point, Qing Ling felt extremely conflicted. However, Qing Shuang did not pay attention to Qing Ling’s internal turmoil. She looked coldly towards the right. Qing Ling followed her gaze and her expression changed.

Not far away, several figures stood. Leading them, a handsome man stood with his hands clasped behind his back. He smiled at Qing Shuang, and she could no longer step out.

“It’s Xuan Luo. Why is he here!?” Qing Ling exclaimed, her face twisting in shock.

Qing Shuang’s expression grew colder because she knew what Xuan Luo’s gaze meant. If she wanted to help Mu Chen, the latter would intercept her. She clenched her fists, and her gaze flickered for a moment, but she did not step out again. She knew that it was futile, and that she could not break through once Xuan Luo intercepted her.

“Mu Chen, I hope you’ll find a chance to get out of here as soon as possible.” Qing Shuang looked at Mu Chen in the center of the storm and sighed.

Xuan Luo, after seeing Qing Shuang stop, casually retracted his gaze. He looked towards Mu Chen in the distance as he murmured in his heart, What are these two guys fighting over?

Due to the distance, he knew that Mu Chen and Mo Xin were vying for something, but he was unclear about what it was. He was also unsure whether Mo Xin wanted to intentionally find trouble with Mu Chen.

Amid Xuan Luo’s doubts, a gentle but charming voice rang beside him, “Is he the notorious perpetrator of your Budur Ancient Clan?” The person who spoke was a woman in a black dress. She had a beautiful complexion, her skin was as fair as white jade, and her brows were curved like the moon. When she smiled, the corners of her eyes were laced with a hint of seduction, but she had an elegant and innocent demeanor. In this way, her seductive hint was even more alluring. She was a natural beauty.

“Haha, it seems that Miss Xin’er knows a lot about the news in our clan.” Xuan Luo smiled.

Xin’er blinked her bright eyes and said, “After all, I am also a would-be Holy Maiden of the Great Spirit Ancient Clan. It is not surprising that I would know this information.”

Xuan Luo nodded with a smile. The woman in the dress, named Bai Xin’er, was one of the reputable would-be Holy Maidens of the Great Spirit Ancient Clan. It was said that if she could accomplish her task in the Ancient Holy Gulf this time, she would be selected as the Holy Maiden of the Great Spirit Ancient Clan. Only someone with this kind of status was worthy of Xuan Luo’s association.

“And…” Bai Xin’er smiled, but her gaze focused on the gorgeous girl beside Mu Chen. There was an inexplicable glint in her eyes. “The girl next to him is my biggest rival in the Ancient Holy Gulf this time.”

“A Lower Earthly Sovereign is of no threat. How could she stand a chance against Miss Xin’er.” Xuan Luo smiled as his gaze swept over Luo Li. He was dazzled by Luo Li but quickly concealed it.

“Brother Xuan Luo, you sure know what to say to please me.” Bai Xin’er covered her mouth and giggled, as playful as a pixie.

As the two were conversing, more people gathered in the trading area. The ominous murderous intent in Mo Xin’s eyes grew richer as he suddenly stepped forward.

Boom!

A powerful spiritual energy fluctuation erupted like a volcano as it swept out. Many Sovereigns were fearful as Mo Xin’s voice rumbled with a chilling rage, “If you refuse to cooperate, then I’ll bring you back to the Budur Ancient Clan and throw you behind bars! Arrogant wretched perpetrator!”
