Chapter 965 - 244: Chu Tian: How Can You Possibly Be This Strong

Zhao Ya pointed to Chu Tian beneath the city.

Indeed, Chu Tian regretted it deeply, regretting it so much that his intestines felt green with remorse. He couldn’t understand why he had been so foolish.

Originally, he thought Chen Jie was still the Chen Jie of the past, still that useless person in the Holding Core Realm. Who would have thought that now Chen Jie had become such a terrifying existence, having already entered the Wolf Smoke realm.

Indeed, he had entered the Wolf Smoke realm.

Even more frightening was that the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms he learned didn’t seem ordinary. His Dragon Capture felt like it had a dual force, even putting him at a disadvantage.

What kind of existence is this Chen Jiusi!

How could he have entered the Wolf Smoke Realm in such a short time!

And what’s with that White Tiger? Didn’t his master say the White Tiger would never recognize a master in its lifetime?

He knew this White Tiger, he had once passed through the Mist Forest and wanted his master to help him make the White Tiger recognize him as its master. His master, however, told him that the White Tiger would never recognize any master in its life.

Fine, it didn’t want to recognize me as its master, but instead chose to recognize someone with the surname Chen, huh!

Thinking of this, Chu Tian was almost exploding with anger, gritting his teeth and glaring viciously at Chen Jie.

But in the end, he regretted it. Why did he charge up?

He originally thought Chen Jie was a Holding Core Realm weakling and that he could blast his head off with a punch. But what happened?

Thinking of this, his face suddenly turned livid!

But there’s no remedy for regret in this world, he could only silently endure.

Now he regretted it terribly!

And not far away, Elder Quan, seeing this scene, got furious immediately. This fool! Instead of controlling beasts, why did he challenge Chen Jiusi to a duel at this time!

Thinking of this, Elder Quan’s face turned blue. He wanted to retreat, but Wang Baobao was clinging onto him like a mad dog, not letting him break away. What should he do!

Elder Quan’s face grew more wrinkled with worry.

"Old thief, you still dare to be distracted!"

Swish—a Big Guandao Sword swung down directly at his head!

At this moment, Elder Quan felt his scalp go numb, narrowly avoiding being killed by this slash. Scared, Elder Quan had no choice but to concentrate entirely on defending against Wang Baobao’s offensive, inwardly cursing Chu Tian as useless.

Is Chu Tian really useless?

No, Chu Tian was Elder Quan’s favorite disciple. This person was clever and had excellent comprehension. Most importantly, he had remarkable management skills, truly a rare talent.

But as the saying goes: "Gold is not pure, and no one is perfect." Precisely because he excelled in every aspect, he grew up being praised by elders and admired by his peers.

This caused him to become very conceited.

However, last time in Huangzhou Prefecture, his three-year-long carefully planned plot was unraveled by Chen Jie in a single day, leaving nothing unexposed. This was unbearable for him, dealing a significant blow to his heart, leading to an obsession—that he must eliminate Chen Jiusi.

Not killing him was like constantly proving his own stupidity.

Therefore, Chu Tian became hot-headed. Upon seeing Chen Jiusi, he charged forward.

He thought he could win, and the result was...

Boom—Chen Jie forcefully blasted a palm over, causing Chu Tian to retreat several steps.

Seeing this, He Yishou on the city wall said, "How come Chen Jiusi’s Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms are different from what I know?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya beside him said, "He seems to have improved it."

"Improved the Seventeen Dragon Capturing Palms?"

He Yishou looked shocked. What kind of Martial Arts talent is required to improve such a Divine Technique?

Seeing He Yishou’s reaction, Zhao Ya said, "Hehe, Master He, impressive, right? Otherwise, why would I recruit him as a subordinate? He’s both smart and formidable."

Hearing this, He Yishou looked at Zhao Ya and said, "Princess, some matters shouldn’t be my concern, but you must be cautious. With your noble status and a marriage betrothal, no matter how much you admire others, don’t get too involved. Otherwise..."

He Yishou didn’t finish, but his eyes were filled with killing intent as he looked at Chen Jie.

He wouldn’t mind breaking any delusions for the Princess.

Zhao Ya frowned and said, "I understand, Master He, but you can’t harm him."

"Hmm?"

Zhao Ya said, "In the end, I’ll marry that person, and I need my own forces outside. Otherwise, stepping into that dangerous world, I fear being devoured without knowing when, and things outside aren’t easy either."

"The Prince Mansion is the Princess’s backing."

He Yishou looked at Zhao Ya, who responded, "Father loves me, but he wouldn’t forsake the Prince Mansion’s interests for me, you know, Master He, you’ve watched me grow up, you wouldn’t let me be alone and helpless outside, would you?"

Hearing this, He Yishou looked at Zhao Ya, then sighed and said, "Yaya, Master understands, but you must have limits, moderation, got it?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ya bowed to He Yishou.

He had just called her Yaya, not Princess, which meant he regarded her as a disciple at that moment, not as the cold Commandery Princess.

He Yishou turned his head aside. As a guard of the Prince Mansion, he wasn’t supposed to act like this. He should prioritize the mansion’s interests over the Princess, who was actually just an accessory of the Prince.

Although the Prince loved the Princess, when faced with political and family interests, personal feelings could be sacrificed.

Thus, when facing political interests, the Princess essentially played the role of a sacrificial pawn.

Yet, He Yishou sighed. They had watched the Princess grow up, from not even as tall as a table, witnessing her grow into a graceful girl.
