"On the stage of life and death, it's a fair duel, life and death are irrelevant." Chen Mo's voice was calm yet carried an undeniable power. "Qin Yue's skills were inferior, and he died by Xiao Chen's spear. It was his own fault for not being skilled enough; he has no one to blame but himself. As the enforcement elder of the Purple Extreme Pavilion, are you going to lead the way in breaking the rules?"
"Senior Uncle!" Ling Chen looked at Chen Mo with excitement in his eyes. He had never expected that Elder Chen, whom he had always respected, was actually his Senior Uncle. He hadn't recognized him just now!
Chen Mo nodded slightly to Ling Chen, then looked at Zi Feng Old Monster again: "Zi Feng, if you insist on taking action, you will be making an enemy of all the forces in the entire Cangdao Mountain."
Purple Wind Old Monster's face alternated between pale and flushed as he looked at the strange gazes cast his way by the surrounding cultivators and listened to their whispers—
"The Purple Extreme Pavilion is shameless! They want to back out after losing on the life-or-death stage?"
"Exactly! They call themselves a major sect in the Central Region, yet they can't even follow these basic rules!"
"Elder Chen is right! We cannot break the rules of the Life and Death Arena!"
These comments pierced Zi Feng Laoguai's heart like needles. He was indeed protective of his own, and he did want to kill Xiao Chen to avenge his disciple, but he also knew that Chen Mo was telling the truth. If he really ignored the rules and forced his way in, the reputation of Ziji Pavilion would plummet, and it might even attract a united suppression from other forces.
"Good! Good for Chen Mo! Good for Xiao Chen!" Old Monster Zifeng stared intently at Xiao Chen and Chen Mo, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "I, Ziji Pavilion, will remember this humiliation! Xiao Chen, you just wait, one day I will make you wish you were dead!"
After uttering a harsh remark, the Purple Wind Old Monster glared venomously at Xiao Chen, then turned into a streak of black light and disappeared into the horizon.
As the oppressive aura dissipated, Hidden Dao Mountain finally returned to calm, but the way everyone looked at Xiao Chen had changed.
This young man from the Southern Region not only killed a half-step Mahayana cultivator and withstood a Mahayana elder's palm strike, but also received the protection of a mysterious Mahayana expert. Even the Purple Extreme Pavilion couldn't do anything to him!
From this day forward, no one in the Central Region will dare to underestimate this name—Xiao Chen!
Xiao Chen struggled to his feet and bowed deeply to Chen Mo: "Thank you for saving me, senior."
Chen Mo looked at him, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes: "No need to thank me, I was just following the rules. You are very good, so young, yet you have such character and strength, it's rare."
He paused, then said, "Old Monster Zifeng is vengeful; you must be more careful in your future actions."
Xiao Chen nodded: "This junior understands."
Chen Mo himself knew that he only valued Xiao Chen's talent and wanted to make a good connection with him!
