Ding Ding Little Stone
Chapter 498 Who approves? Who opposes?
Arrogant!
Confident!
At this moment, Chen Yuan, sitting at the head of the table, exuded such an aura, directly disregarding everyone, looking down on everyone in the Sky Patrol Hall with contempt.
Including the two Sky Patrol Gold Envoys in the hall.
In this moment, time seemed to freeze, and no one dared to break the silence. The several Core Realm Deputy Envoys, while horrified, all turned their gazes towards Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi.
Originally, Huangfu Qi occupied the seat of honor, but later, due to Feng Jiuying's power struggle, the two sides were at loggerheads, and tacitly agreed to leave the seat vacant until a winner was determined.
After all, everyone knew what this position represented. Although their official ranks were both Sky Patrol Gold Envoys, only the one sitting in this position was the Liang Province Gold Envoy.
Do not underestimate the prefix 'Liang Province,' because it represents authority, representing that the Liang Province Sky Patrol Division is under his command, in charge of everything.
But...
Now, Chen Yuan has directly and brazenly occupied this seat, without even saying hello, completely with contempt. How will the two Gold Envoys respond?
These Deputy Envoys' minds were racing, and some even felt that today would not end well, and that a major fight might break out, or even that the entire Liang Province Sky Patrol Division would be in constant turmoil.
Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi frowned simultaneously as they watched Chen Yuan directly ascend to the head seat. Looking at Chen Yuan's indifferent and calm gaze, a hint of anger instantly arose in their hearts.
Contempt!
This was blatant contempt!
They had originally thought that Chen Yuan was very sensible and knew his place, that he would take the initiative to greet them and pay his respects. They had already prepared themselves, ready to speak before Chen Yuan could.
But... the outcome greatly exceeded their expectations.
Chen Yuan actually sat in the head seat.
How dare he!
They had previously thought that as long as Chen Yuan was sensible and respected them as senior Gold Envoys, they would give him some benefits to taste and share some of the power with him.
After he had gained some experience, they would respectfully send him out of Liang Province.
Now it seemed that it was no longer necessary.
Even if Chen Yuan's reputation had spread throughout the martial world, they could not tolerate handing over that position to him. If they had such intentions, why would they fight so fiercely for it?
They had to give this kid a disincentive!
This thought flashed through the minds of Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi at the same time. They took a deep breath and scolded:
"Presumptuous! Chen Yuan, how dare you directly occupy the head seat? Have you put us in your eyes at all!"
Huangfu Qi's voice was rough, like a booming bell. Immediately after Feng Jiuying's scolding, he added:
"Bastard! Are you seeking death!"
In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire Sky Patrol Hall quickly changed from the previous silence to one of intense confrontation.
Facing the yelping of Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi, Chen Yuan did not take it seriously. He looked down at the two and said:
"Are you worthy of being put in my eyes? Chen is not deliberately targeting anyone, but I think everyone here is useless. Since you don't dare to sit in this seat, then I will sit in it!"
"Arrogant!"
"Outrageous!"
Hearing Chen Yuan's voice, Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying immediately took a step forward, their auras instantly enveloping Chen Yuan, as if they would strike at any moment.
But such an aura was nothing to Chen Yuan now.
With his strength, he would not take anyone outside the top five of the Wind and Cloud Ranking seriously, let alone Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi? These two guys were qualified enough, and their strength was not bad either.
Perhaps they had the strength of the bottom of the Wind and Cloud Ranking.
However, there was a huge difference between the top five and the bottom.
Chen Yuan was able to kill Tang Xianzhuo when he was in the Solid Core Realm, let alone them?
Therefore, facing the simultaneous aura of the two, he just smiled naturally and said:
"Our Sky Patrol Division is different from other government offices. Other government offices rely on qualifications and merit, but in the Sky Patrol Division, especially when the three of us have equal status, we can rely on strength to determine everything."
"Always fighting openly and secretly will only make others laugh at your incompetence. It is better to have a fair fight. If you win, Chen will resign and seal his gold, no longer serving as the Liang Province Gold Envoy. Whether he is inferior to you or leaves Liang Province is up to you."
"But... if I win, I will take the seat of the Liang Province Gold Envoy. If you dare to have any dissent, I will directly cripple you two useless wastes!"
Chen Yuan's tone gradually became cold, as if he did not care about their bursting aura at all.
"How do you want to compete!"
Huangfu Qi glared at Chen Yuan. Being reprimanded by such an immature guy was definitely a great humiliation for him, and he even forgot the strength that Chen Yuan had previously displayed.
But Feng Jiuying did not forget. He still maintained a trace of clarity, understanding in his heart that Chen Yuan's posture was to force them to take action. As long as the three of them took action, the superiors would only turn a blind eye.
If it were an ordinary Celestial Core, it would be fine, but Chen Yuan was a powerhouse ranked twenty-first on the Wind and Cloud Ranking. Whether it was him or Huangfu Qi, neither of them could be his opponent in a one-on-one fight.
This was very disadvantageous to them!
Immediately, he opened his mouth and said:
"Chen Yuan, you have a good plan, but do you know that the Sky Patrol Division prohibits infighting? If this matter spreads, we will not have a good end."
Chen Yuan knew Feng Jiuying's temperament and said to him:
"I know what you are worried about. It's nothing more than worrying that you are not my opponent. Let's do this, so that you don't say that I am bullying the weak, I will give you a chance to join forces.
As long as you can last thirty breaths in my hands, you win!"
"Arrogant and conceited, Chen Yuan, don't think that you can ignore the old man just because you have climbed to twenty-first place on the Wind and Cloud Ranking. Today, I will definitely make you take back these arrogant words."
Huangfu Qi was already somewhat irritable, and now Chen Yuan had completely stirred up his emotions.
This was simply not putting them in his eyes.
Thirty breaths!
Even the top five experts on the Wind and Cloud Ranking would not dare to say such a thing when facing the joint efforts of two Celestial Core Grandmasters. Chen Yuan was simply out of his mind!
After saying that, he directly turned and left the Sky Patrol Hall, wanting to fight to the death.
And Feng Jiuying, who had previously maintained clarity, was also put on the spot by Huangfu Qi's attitude. If Chen Yuan defeated Huangfu Qi and then challenged him,
Then, would he fight or not?
If he fought, he would definitely lose, and if he did not fight, everyone in the entire Liang Province Sky Patrol Division would look down on him.
Immediately, he stared at Chen Yuan and said:
"Okay, since you are so confident, then Feng will join hands with Brother Huangfu and let you know what it means that there is always someone better, and there is always a sky beyond the sky!"
Feng Jiuying accepted the challenge, not only because Huangfu Qi had already put him on the spot, but also because he felt that Chen Yuan's words were simply nonsense and completely worth fighting.
If he did not dare to fight with such harsh conditions, then there was no need for him to continue.
Celestial Core Grandmasters all have their own pride.
Seeing that both of them accepted the challenge, Chen Yuan's goal was achieved. Thirty breaths seemed very short, but for him, it was definitely more than enough. Moreover, if he did not have such harsh conditions,
Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying would not accept the challenge at all if they did not see a chance of winning.
This move was an overt scheme.
It was very simple, but also very practical.
Because in the Sky Patrol Division, martial strength was indeed respected. Chen Yuan had no interest in wasting too much time fighting for power with these two small characters.
What he wanted was a swift resolution!
In this way, he could control the situation in the shortest possible time and achieve his plans and interests. He had a premonition that the opportunity he was hoping for would not be too far away.
Therefore, Chen Yuan had always maintained a sense of urgency.
And the news that the three Gold Envoys were about to fight to determine the outcome also spread throughout the entire Sky Patrol Division at the fastest speed. All Sky Patrol Envoys who did not have missions gathered quickly.
Because today was likely to be the time to completely end the half-year of chaos.
As for whether the strong dragon could overwhelm the local snakes, or whether Chen Yuan would suffer a loss and be defeated in Liang Province, that was a matter of opinion.
The news spread quickly, taking the Sky Patrol Division Yamen as the foundation, and quickly spreading to the surrounding government offices. The Beiliang Royal Mansion was also paying close attention to the battle here.
However, the only difference was that Wei Wuque, the Heir Apparent of the Beiliang Royal Mansion, had great confidence in Chen Yuan, believing that he would definitely win.
In the void, Chen Yuan faced Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying, two Celestial Cores, but his face did not even have a trace of solemnity. He even stood with his hands behind his back, very calmly, facing the two of them.
Such a posture would undoubtedly make Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying even more furious.
But while furious, they also knew in their hearts that since Chen Yuan dared to utter the wild words of defeating them both in thirty breaths, he must have something to rely on.
Otherwise, he would be out of his mind.
Did Chen Yuan seem like he was out of his mind?
No, not at all.
Even when they were about to fight, Feng Jiuying had some faint unease and regret. If he had not agreed, relying on their qualifications, would Chen Yuan dare to kill them?
But once he accepted the challenge, if he did not fulfill the agreement afterwards, he would inevitably be looked down upon.
Putting aside those messy thoughts, Feng Jiuying's face gradually became solemn. It was too late to think about anything else at this time. Only by using the strongest means could he save face.
Let Chen Yuan, this arrogant guy, go back to where he came from!
"Brother Huangfu, don't hold back, you must use all your strength. Chen Yuan dares to act like this, he must have something to rely on, you must not be careless." Feng Jiuying transmitted his voice to Huangfu Qi.
"I understand."
With a cold snort, Huangfu Qi sternly said to Chen Yuan:
"Chen Yuan, today you will definitely pay the price for your previous arrogant words!"
"Too much nonsense, you should attack together, otherwise, when I attack, you will have no chance." Chen Yuan glanced at Huangfu Qi and looked around at the people below.
Only by suppressing Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying in front of most of the Sky Patrol Division's martial artists could he quickly establish his authority and break their foundations.
Now, the opportunity was just right!
"Kill!"
Huangfu Qi roared, his arms spread out, and his aura burst out without reservation. In Chen Yuan's perception, it was almost similar to Xiao Yunsheng, the former sect master of the Qingyun Sword Sect.
The two golden whips behind him suddenly came out of their sheaths, and his Qi and blood surged. A huge martial artist phantom suddenly condensed in the void, and the surrounding heaven and earth Qi began to surge, filling it.
Feng Jiuying, on the other hand, moved his mind and almost urged all of his strength, shrouding dozens of feet of heaven and earth Qi in his hands, accumulating power.
"Extinguish!"
Huangfu Qi roared, like a thunderclap rising from the ground. As he roared, the powerful phantom behind him quickly raised its double whips and smashed them down towards Chen Yuan.
Feng Jiuying also moved with it, pushing his palms horizontally, condensing endless Qi into one, like a huge ball, moving with the phantom.
And while urging these two trump cards, the faces of the two of them turned slightly pale at the same time. These methods were definitely their trump cards.
They would only use them in a desperate situation.
But they couldn't care about so much now. It was never an overestimation to be cautious when facing Chen Yuan. Once they were defeated, all their previous efforts would probably be in vain.
They would also have to submit to Chen Yuan's command!
Facing Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying's desperate methods, Chen Yuan, who had been standing with his hands behind his back, finally moved. A knife cry that resounded through the heavens enveloped everyone's ears.
But unexpectedly, in everyone's eyes, they did not see any powerful saber light.
Just as Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi were confused, suddenly, an invisible force enveloped them, instantly shielding their minds.
In front of them, it seemed like there was an extra... sea of blood!
This was the method of the Imperial Slaughter Saber, especially effective against low-level martial artists. It could instantly pull a person's consciousness into a violent and ferocious consciousness space.
Originally, Chen Yuan was naturally not very good at facing martial artists of the same realm, but now, having comprehended the meaning of heaven and earth, his own Martial Dao True Meaning was even more condensed, and he was fully capable of supporting the simultaneous envelopment of two Celestial Core martial artists for several breaths.
And this time was enough for Chen Yuan!
If he wanted to win, he had to win heartily.
In the eyes of those martial artists below, he possessed a crushing force, so that he could quickly win their hearts, leave a deep impression on them, and let them see that the two big figures whom they thought were high above them were so fragile and so vulnerable in front of his Chen Yuan!
After the Imperial Slaughter Saber enveloped the two of them, Chen Yuan watched the powerful methods that were attacking, and stepped out with his hands behind his back. Without the urging of the two of them,
The power of these two methods was also reduced a lot.
Stepping out in one step, Feng Jiuying's methods were instantly broken, making a roar in the void. Stepping out in the second step, under Chen Yuan's powerful power,
The phantom also collapsed inch by inch.
The method of this phantom was far worse than the Body of Demon God he had comprehended before!
Although there were some merits, it was just some.
In a short moment, Chen Yuan broke Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi's methods without a single saber or punch, directly making the martial artists below dumbfounded.
They watched this scene in disbelief.
Even in their eyes, Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying were frozen in place at this moment, unable to move at all.
It was simply horrifying.
And at the moment when the phantom and the Qi were broken at the same time, under the powerful mental traction, the two instantly broke free from that terrifying and violent sea of blood.
They could not help but each spit out a mouthful of blood.
But this was not enough.
Seeing that the two of them quickly recovered their minds, Chen Yuan, who had expected it, made a powerful roar from his body, and directly crossed a hundred feet away in one step, arriving in front of the two of them.
Under the horrified gazes of Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi, Chen Yuan moved again. This time, he raised his right arm, his body's Qi and blood agitated, and he suddenly threw a punch.
The punch force directly exploded in front of Feng Jiuying. Although he immediately tried to find a way to block the punch force, all the methods collapsed at the first touch. He was also like a kite with a broken string under this punch, directly falling below.
Huangfu Qi's pupils shrank, and he forcibly held his double whips in front of him, and an invisible light shrouded his true body, but it was still not enough. Under the second punch that Chen Yuan calmly threw, his state was no different from Feng Jiuying. His double whips were directly blown away, and his body was distorted and blasted to the ground.
So far, the fight was over!
And only one-third of the time had passed since the previously agreed thirty breaths.
The whole place was silent, and everyone was stiff in place. Even Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi, who had been smashed into pits on the ground, did not dare to help them, for fear of angering the figure in the void.
At this moment, in everyone's eyes, Chen Yuan was invincible.
They were both Gold Envoys, both Celestial Cores. From beginning to end, they only saw Chen Yuan take three steps and throw two punches, and then... it was over.
It was so fast that people dared not believe it.
But only Chen Yuan himself knew that such a result was very normal!
In all fairness, the strength of Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi was not too bad. The two sides joining forces was even greater than one plus one, but Chen Yuan... was attacking with all his strength.
From the beginning of the fight, everything was within his expectations.
First, he shrouded the minds of the two of them, so that they could not react, and then he attacked with all his strength. The two of them had just recovered their minds and could not react at all, so they could only respond hastily.
It must be, and only this was the end!
Chen Yuan looked down at Huangfu Qi and Feng Jiuying below, and directly took out Great Commander Gu Tianqiong's waist tag and said loudly:
"Under the order of the Great Commander, I will take over the Liang Province Sky Patrol Division and become the Liang Province Gold Envoy. Whoever dares to disobey can make a decision on the spot and kill first and report later! Feng Jiuying, Huangfu Qi, you two made an agreement with me, the winner takes precedence and the loser submits. Are you willing to submit to me now?"
Huangfu Qi looked at the black figure in the void, and then felt his own state. A trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he spit out a long breath of turbid air and said in a deep voice:
"Huangfu Qi is willing to submit to Milord!"
Feng Jiuying looked blankly at the sky, only feeling that the tendons and bones of his body were completely broken, and he was almost seriously injured. And this... was probably still the situation where Chen Yuan showed mercy.
He couldn't help but feel a trace of fear in his heart.
Chen Thief, is really strong!
Sure enough, he dared to utter those wild words before, and he must have had something to rely on. As for now, there was only one road in front of him. Not to mention the previous agreement, he would not dare to resist even if the Great Commander's waist tag was here.
This heart is really damned black!
Why didn't you use the waist tag earlier?
You had to beat them up first!
With endless resentment in his heart, Feng Jiuying lowered his proud head:
"Feng Jiuying is willing to submit to Milord!"
Then, Chen Yuan's gaze shifted from Feng Jiuying and Huangfu Qi to the Sky Patrol Division's martial artists below and said lightly: "Now, I formally take office as the Liang Province Gold Envoy and take charge of all matters of the Sky Patrol Division.
You... who else approves, who opposes!"
