Chen Tianwen hadn't expected that simply returning a favor would cause so much trouble.
It seemed that he had no chance with Chao Shengzong. Thinking of this, Chen Tianwen shook his head and prepared to turn around and leave.
"Hey! A good dog doesn't block the way. You've been standing here for so long, get out of the way!"
Suddenly a sharp voice rang out. Chen Tianwen looked closely and saw a young immortal dressed in flamboyant clothes. His strength had actually reached the perfect level of the Great Luo Golden Immortal.
The fact that this young immortal could cultivate to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm at such a young age indicates that he must have an extraordinary background.
However, Chen Tianwen didn't care about the other party's background; what he cared about was the insults the other party had hurled at him.
Are you talking to me?
Chen Tianwen's voice was somewhat cold as he addressed the young immortal.
"Hmph, besides you, who else is so clueless? If you don't have an invitation, get out of here! There are so many people waiting!"
Chao Shengzong, the Great Luo Golden Immortal in charge of welcoming guests, frowned slightly when he saw Chen Tianwen and the young immortal getting into a conflict.
Although he didn't have a good impression of Chen Tianwen, this was, after all, Chao Shengzong's doorstep. If the two of them had any friction, it would not look good for Chao Shengzong.
So he quickly pulled Chen Tianwen aside and whispered:
“Fellow Daoist, this is Liu Chong, the young sect leader of the Boundless Sect. He is usually arrogant and domineering. Please, for the sake of Chao Shengzong, do not lower yourself to his level.”
Chen Tianwen suppressed his anger. He had come to repay a favor, and if he caused trouble at Chao Shengzong's coming-of-age ceremony before he had repaid the favor, wouldn't that be putting the cart before the horse?
Although Chen Tianwen had never heard of the Wuliang Sect, the fact that they had to queue to enter indicated that they were not a major force.
Chen Tianwen didn't take this kind of person seriously, so he snorted and prepared to turn and leave.
Seeing Chen Tianwen back down, Liu Chong perked up.
In fact, Liu Chong had heard that Chen Tianwen had been rejected because he did not have an invitation, so he concluded that Chen Tianwen was a rogue immortal with no background.
Having waited in line for so long, Liu Chong was already getting impatient, but he dared not offend Chao Shengzong's men, so he could only vent his anger on Chen Tianwen.
Now that Chen Tianwen has backed down, Liu Chong is even more convinced that Chen Tianwen is a pushover.
"Kid, you've kept me occupied for so long, and you think you can just leave like that? That's not fair."
Liu Chong blocked Chen Tianwen's path, giving Chen Tianwen a disapproving look.
Chen Tianwen was only a late-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal, and a rogue immortal at that. Liu Chong took him even less seriously.
Chen Tianwen had been suppressing his anger, but now that he saw Liu Chong still harassing him, the nameless fire in Chen Tianwen's heart could no longer be contained.
"Then what else do you want?"
Chen Tianwen's voice became extremely cold, each word seeming to come from the Nine Polar Regions.
Even Liu Chong couldn't help but shiver. For a moment, he even had the thought of backing down.
However, Liu Chong quickly dismissed this thought and even found his earlier idea laughable.
"What do I want? My time is very precious. You've wasted so much of my time. Don't even think about leaving without paying me several million mid-grade immortal crystals."
Liu Chong reverted to his unruly demeanor and said to Chen Tianwen with a playful expression.
"Several million mid-grade immortal crystals?"
Chen Tianwen was almost amused by his anger. He owed Chao Shengzong a favor because of those 150 mid-grade immortal crystals, and now that he hadn't repaid the favor, someone else had jumped out to extort him.
"Even if you don't have immortal crystals, you can kneel down and kowtow to me a few times. Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I might forgive you."
Liu Chong's original intention was to humiliate Chen Tianwen and vent his anger, so the millions of immortal crystals were just a pretext.
Liu Chong's words also caused some other people behind him to start jeering.
They are all forces within the Ganyu region, and their interests are more or less intertwined.
Although they weren't necessarily on good terms normally, they found it amusing to stand in line like this, so naturally they were on Liu Chong's side.
"Young Master Liu, judging by this kid's poor appearance, a few million mid-grade immortal crystals? He probably hasn't even seen what a mid-grade immortal crystal looks like in his entire life, has he? Hahahaha!"
"Young Master Liu, I think it would be better to just have this kid kowtow, and then let him bark like a dog a few times to amuse everyone. Wouldn't that be even better?"
The jeers only fueled Liu Chong's smugness. He crossed his arms and looked at Chen Tianwen with amusement.
Chao Shengzong, the Great Golden Immortal who was welcoming guests, frowned when he saw so many people making a fuss.
He gently nudged Chen Tianwen and whispered:
"Fellow Daoist, you should leave quickly."
After speaking, the Great Luo Golden Immortal addressed the crowd loudly:
"Stop making a fuss! We are all guests, and Chao Shengzong does not wish for any trouble during the coming-of-age ceremony of our sect's Holy Maiden! Please behave yourselves!"
Chao Shengzong's imposing presence indeed intimidated those who were making a fuss, and the jeers gradually subsided.
The welcoming immortal nudged Chen Tianwen, signaling him to leave quickly.
However, Chen Tianwen remained unmoved.
At this moment, Chen Tianwen recalled that he had also been mocked in the Xuan Tian Realm.
However, the ridicule now is nothing compared to what happened back then.
Xu Xinrou's malice is a hundred or a thousand times more vicious than Liu Chong's.
However, I was too weak to refute them at that time and could only silently endure it for so many years.
But things are different now!
He is now in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, a leading figure among the younger generation.
Even more unique is the supreme powerhouse who has mastered the Five Elements Laws at the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm!
If one can endure such mockery of one's invincible fighting spirit, then one would be unworthy of that invincible fighting spirit.
Although Chen Tianwen knew that the welcoming immortal meant well, after all, on the surface he was just a rogue immortal in the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Compared to Liu Chong, the young sect leader of the Boundless Sect, he is far inferior in both cultivation level and background.
So the welcoming immortal told him to leave quickly because he was afraid of being taken advantage of.
However, Chen Tianwen still decided to take action and teach this arrogant brat a lesson. Of course, Chen Tianwen would not kill him, after all, it was Chao Shengzong's joyous day, and killing someone would be unlucky.
Snap!
With a crisp sound, Liu Chong felt a burning pain on his face, and his body flew backward uncontrollably.
Of course, it was Chen Tianwen who took action; slapping him across the face was the most satisfying thing to do!
Liu Chong got up from the ground, touching the five finger marks on his face, his anger rising uncontrollably.
