Sky Dragon City was an unremarkable little city in the universe continent. It was under the jurisdiction of the Great Gan Dynasty and had a population of over ten million. It was moderately wealthy.
The Great Gan Dynasty had centralized power. Each marquis was in charge of a city, and each city was led by a city lord. The heavens were high, and the Emperor was far away. The city lord was in charge of all affairs. He was the emperor of a city, and his prestige was extremely high.
In the back garden of Sky Dragon City's city lord's mansion, a bearded man was respectfully accompanying a beautiful woman, not daring to be the slightest bit negligent.
The bearded man was Sky Dragon City's city lord, Zhao Sankui. This woman was actually the one Chen Jiu had had intimate contact with, Fairy Mu Lan.
Fairy Mu Lan. Perhaps everyone only knew that she was a student of the universe Academy, but they didn't know that she was also extremely famous within the universe Academy. Due to her beauty, figure, and peerless talent, she was ranked last of the universe Seven Fairies despite being the youngest and having the lowest cultivation base. Her fame shook the entire continent, and countless geniuses looked up to her.
Even a city lord didn't dare speak loudly in front of her. From this, it could be seen just how high Mu Lan's status was. For Chen Jiu to be able to obtain Mu Lan, he really was lucky.
"Zhao Sankui, how is the matter I asked you to do coming along?" Mu Lan hatefully asked.
"Fairy, don't worry. I've already sent people to notify the Chen family. I'm sure they won't dare go back on their word. Within half a month, I'll definitely help you get back your debt." Zhao Sankui patted his chest.
"Good, good Chen Jiu. I want to see how you're going to keep a foothold in the family after this." Mu Lan let out a sigh of relief and said, "Don't be idle these few days. Find a few people. If you see that bastard Chen Jiu, beat him up fiercely. Just be careful not to kill him."
"Yes, yes, don't worry fairy, I'll definitely do it." Zhao Sankui immediately replied and respectfully left. Others might not know about Fairy Mu Lan's status, but as the city lord, he was very clear.
Although such a peerless fairy didn't have her own faction, as long as she waved her arm, and a few accomplished students from the universe Academy would be able to flatten their Sky Dragon City.
"Chen Jiu, I'll slowly torture you to death …" Mu Lan's eyes filled with hatred...
In the Chen Clan, when they found out about Chen Jiu's huge gambling debt, the entire clan was in an uproar. Among them, there was no lack of malicious words that cursed Chen Jiu for being a prodigal son and cursed him for not dying early.
...... You.............
. "" Hmph, do you think those people will dare to beat me up in my house? "Chen Jiu was unhappy." I want to see just who is the most dissatisfied with me. "
"Young Master, then I'll go with you." Chen Lan was worried and quickly followed behind Chen Jiu.
Knowing that the entire clan was blaming him, Chen Jiu didn't want Chen Tianhe to bear this burden alone. Since he was the one who did it, he naturally couldn't hide.
Although he was poor in his previous life, Chen Jiu was still a man who dared to take responsibility for his actions.
When they arrived at the bustling martial arts practice field, Chen Jiu immediately attracted everyone's attention. The people who had been discussing animatedly couldn't help but look at him with blame and resentment.
"Hey, do you all resent me for losing all of my family's fortune and causing you all to be unable to live? You all hate me and are scolding me, right? "Chen Jiu spoke bluntly, shocking the clan members.
"Chen Jiu, you hedonistic son of a rich family. You don't think about cultivation and are ignorant all day long. I knew you would get into trouble sooner or later. Today, you lost all of our family's fortune, and you still have the face to stand in front of us. If I were you, I would have killed myself already." A young man who looked about the same age as Chen Jiu rebuked with dissatisfaction.
"Oh? Chen Bo, you piece of trash. After cultivating for more than ten years, you've only become a strongman. What right do you have to criticize me? "Chen Jiu provoked, recognizing the young man on the spot.
The young man was very tall and sturdy. He was the ninth son of the Chen Clan. Although he wasn't a genius, he was very hardworking and had some small achievements. Among mortals, he was an extraordinary existence.
"What? So what if I'm a strongman? Even if I'm a strongman, I'm still much stronger than you, a good-for-nothing who only knows how to ruin the clan! "Chen Bo shouted angrily, his face full of dissatisfaction.
In the past, Chen Jiu had abused his power, relying on the fact that his father was the head of the clan. These brothers didn't dare to disrespect him. However, now that Chen Jiu owed a huge debt and the clan was about to collapse, they couldn't bear it anymore.
"Whether I'm strong or not, I'll have to try. Chen Bo, do you dare to fight with me?" Chen Jiu issued a challenge on the spot.
"What? You're just a mortal who hasn't cultivated for a single day. You actually want to fight with me? "Chen Bo immediately laughed in surprise." I'm afraid I'll beat you until you're looking for your teeth on the ground. "
"Haha …" The group of clansmen all roared with laughter.
"Do you dare or not?" Chen Jiu took a step forward and walked into the training field with an imposing manner.
"Everyone, look, this is Chen Jiu who wants to fight with me. If anything happens, I won't be responsible." Chen Bo was the first to declare.
"Don't worry, even if you cripple me, I won't make trouble for you." Chen Jiu shouted, "Make your move. Let me see how strong you are."
"Okay, take this." Chen Bo didn't waste any time talking nonsense. He had long wanted to beat up a good-for-nothing like Chen Jiu. Now that he had the chance, how could he show mercy?
As he punched out, the wind howled like a tiger. The brute force of this punch was so strong that even an ox couldn't withstand it.
"Chen Bo, don't kill him." The bystanders hurriedly reminded, but it was too late. The punch was so fast that it was already in front of Chen Jiu.
"Stop!" Facing the huge force, Chen Jiu opened his hand and grabbed Chen Bo's fist, forcefully stopping it. Chen Bo was unable to move an inch further.
"What? You've reached the third-layer of Body Tempering, and you've mastered the Iron Skin Technique. "Chen Bo shouted in surprise," But it's useless. My strength is enough to break through your iron skin. "
"Boom …" Chen Bo exerted his strength again and retreated backwards, escaping from Chen Jiu's grip. He then took a few steps back and charged towards Chen Jiu like a ferocious tiger descending from the mountain.
"A ferocious tiger descending from the mountain. How dare you be so arrogant with a mere fifth-level cultivation technique. Today, I'll be Wu Song and beat you to the ground." Chen Jiu shouted arrogantly, but his movements were not slow either. He raised his palm and pressed down, as if an emperor was patrolling.
'Bang!' Chen Jiu, who was merely at the third layer of Body Tempering, struck Chen Bo in the back of the head with his palm, knocking him to the ground. Chen Bo's
foot stepped on Chen Jiu's chest, immobilizing him.
