Chapter 1327: Fighting Many Fiends Alone

"What?!"

The expressions of the two Vice Island Masters on the left and right changed immediately to ones of disbelief.

The Fiend Race upper echelon hidden behind the Vice Island Masters was astounded as well. What Xiao Chen said was actually true. However, he did not even make an offer, yet he wanted the Myriad Fiend Island to support him. This would result in them making a great loss.

Not to mention gaining nothing, they even had to face the Deity Dao Union, a major faction. This was a losing proposition.

The old man in gray on the right side asked sullenly, "Big Brother, did you misspeak or did I mishear? This was not what you said when the Deity Race envoy came."

The black-robed old man, who was the Third Vice Island Master, also asked in a rush, "Big Brother, have you really thought this through? The Deity Race promised to help us to forge Deity Statues and teach us the method to cultivate the power of faith in its entirety. This is a great boon for us!"

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

Footsteps resounded. The many hidden Fiend powerhouses all walked out with cold expressions. They all looked confused as they looked at Di Feng. These members of the Fiend Race upper echelon were all Martial Emperors, at least ten-odd of them.

They were all Minor Heavenly Martial Emperors, ranging from First Heaven to Third Heaven.

There were one Eighth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor, two Sixth Heaven Greater Heavenly Martial Emperors, and ten-odd Minor Heavenly Martial Emperors. Furthermore, there was also a Prime that Xiao Chen had yet to see. Now, he had an objective understanding of the Myriad Fiend Island. This Holy Land could be considered the top among the Immortal Holy Lands.

"Vice Island Master, you can't just push the Myriad Fiend Island into a fire pit! We want to see the old ancestor and get him to make the decision!"

"That's right. We want to see the old ancestor. He will make the decision!"

"If the Myriad-Law Fiend Master makes the decision for us, it will definitely be the right decision!"

The group of Fiend Race elders spoke up, expressing their discontent and urging Di Feng to change his decision.

Di Feng remained unmoved. He said calmly, "Feel free to go and see him. Not to mention whether the old ancestor will meet you or not, it will be useless even if he does meet you. My intentions are the old ancestor's intentions. It was the old ancestor's instruction to get me to test Xiao Chen. If I am satisfied with him, I can make the decision."

"I do not believe it. I do not believe that the old ancestor would make such a decision," the other two Vice Island Masters shouted with shock on their faces.

Di Feng's expression sank. "Insolent! Shut up now!"

"Boom!"

A vast Sovereign's Might surged out, silencing the place. Clearly, Di Feng held great prestige in the Myriad Fiend Island. The moment he got angry, no one dared to express any displeasure.

"I'll say it one more time. This is the old ancestor's intent." After a pause, he looked at Xiao Chen and added, "However, just because I'm satisfied, it does not mean that I agree. I have yet to make my decision. Xiao Chen, do you understand what I mean?"

Xiao Chen replied softly, "Naturally, I understand. Senior wants me to prove myself, to show that I have the potential to advance to Martial Emperor. Without this potential, even if Senior appreciates me, you will not let the Myriad Fiend Island jump into a fire pit."

Di Feng laughed loudly, "It is really easy speaking with someone intelligent. If you were a little older, we might be able to become good friends."

At this point, Di Feng looked around and then fixed his gaze on the group of Fiend Race elders behind him. He pointed at them and said, "Weren't you all expressing your dissatisfaction earlier? I'll give you all a chance. If there is anyone who feels dissatisfied, personally go and chase this Azure Dragon King away."

This…

The moment Di Feng said that, all the Fiend Race elders started whispering among themselves. The Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen was famous outside. Furthermore, Xiao Chen had even killed a Martial Emperor before a crowd before, displaying extraordinary strength.

Being able to chase Xiao Chen away was naturally something that would bring them a lot of prestige. However, if they failed, they would end up getting their faces slapped. In that case, they would have thoroughly embarrassed themselves.

After a lot of dillydallying, no one stepped forward.

Di Feng was not surprised at such a scene. He shook his head slightly and remained silent for a while.

"How about all of you come together?!"

Suddenly, Xiao Chen spoke some startling words after the many Fiend Race elders whispered to each other, not daring to take the lead in this.

Di Xinhan was so startled when he heard this that his lower jaw nearly dropped to the ground. Has Brother Xiao Chen gone crazy? Those are ten-odd Martial Emperors, a few of which are Third Heaven Martial Emperors. This Xiao Chen is going too overboard here.

This suggestion also shocked the normally calm Di Feng somewhat. Xiao Chen's words were, indeed, entirely unexpected.

"Azure Dragon King, don't underestimate us. Do you really think that there are no capable people among the Fiend Race?!"

A tall and stocky Fiend stepped forward. With a flash of his figure, he immediately threw a punch at Xiao Chen.

Clearly, Xiao Chen's words were too arrogant, agitating this person beyond endurance.

Xiao Chen sized this stocky man up with his eyes and immediately determined this Fiend's strength. He was a Third Heaven Martial Emperor but not at the peak of Minor Heavenly Martial Emperor yet; he should be easy to handle.

As the stocky man's punch approached, the space above the platform trembled slightly.

A strong wind howled and sea waves surged. The loud noises were deafening. This was one of the Myriad Fiend Island's consummate Martial Techniques—Divine Wind and Wave Punch!

One needed to cultivate two wills in order to raise this consummate Martial Technique to the peak, reaching the might of a Medial Grade Profound Martial Technique.

"Elder Han is making a move!"

"Elder Han's Divine Wind and Wave Punch reached the peak long ago. Among Third Heavenly Martial Emperors, few would dare to clash with him."

"With him making a move, even if he cannot defeat Xiao Chen, it will show Xiao Chen how mighty he is. Xiao Chen won't dare to talk so big anymore!"

The two Vice Island Masters at the side also nodded to themselves. With Han Lei making a move, even if he was defeated, he would suppress some of Xiao Chen's momentum. Xiao Chen's air of kingship made them feel somewhat afraid.

These two Vice Island Masters could not let Xiao Chen continue gaining momentum. They needed to suppress him.

A strong wind blew and the sea howled. As the stocky man approached, his aura flourished. It was like he stood atop the wind and waves, looking down on Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen did not move at all. Even though this Fiend Race Martial Emperor was already within ten steps of him, he still did not move.

Just as the powerful punch that merged the will of strong wind and the will of sea waves was about to strike Xiao Chen, he moved.

Amid the strong waves, Xiao Chen became like a fish wagging its tail, successfully dodging this punch—an extremely unexpected outcome.

To the eyes of so many people, Elder Han's punch appeared to have already struck Xiao Chen. However, Xiao Chen managed to dodge it.

This scene looked just like when Xiao Chen was trying to catch the Immortal fish at Frost Water Lake. At that time, he thought that he had clearly caught the fish but ended up grabbing just air.

"Oh no!"

The powerful fist struck nothing, greatly startling Elder Han. He soared into the air and quickly tried to retreat.

However, as Xiao Chen was dodging, he had already made his move, determining Elder Han's path of retreat and grabbing the wrist of the hand Elder Han used to punch. Strangely, it appeared as if Elder Han delivered himself up to Xiao Chen.

"Boom!"

Elder Han roared furiously and punched with his left hand, driving all the Primordial Energy in his body. This punch was swift and prompt, displaying Elder Han's ability to react quickly to the situation.

Xiao Chen smiled faintly. He split his Primordial Energy into two streams, one for Yang and the other for Yin. Then, he created a simplified Taiji force field within ten meters.

With the pull of the Taiji force field, Elder Han's swift and prompt punch met great resistance.

Xiao Chen was clearly just in front. Elder Han could strike Xiao Chen's face in a second, but he failed. Instead, Xiao Chen borrowed Elder Han's force to fight. Holding Elder Han's wrist, he flung him gently, and his soaring body immediately turned around.

The hand that Xiao Chen raised landed very smoothly, appearing neither fast nor slow. Then, the back of that hand hit Elder Han's chest.

The two streams of Primordial Energy—one light and one dark—chased each other, forming a Taiji diagram that made Xiao Chen look very graceful and elegant.

Elder Han vomited a mouthful of blood and went hurtling back one hundred meters before landing heavily.

He was utterly confused, clueless about what happened. He had charged over ferociously, but Xiao Chen tossed him back out easily as if he was a toy.

Elder Han did not get significantly injured, but he had utterly embarrassed himself.

He looked around and saw that the entire place was stunned. Xiao Chen had used one hand to send a Third Heaven Martial Emperor flying.

Xiao Chen withdrew his hand and stood upright. He looked at the crowd and said, "Everyone, do you still think that I was just speaking nonsense? In my life, I never overestimate myself, biting off more than I can chew. However, I will not underestimate myself, either, and be unduly humble.

"Would Senior Di say something to give me, Xiao Chen, a chance to prove myself, to prove that I am not an arrogant person who speaks nonsense? Proving myself means hope to Myriad Fiend Island, showing that Senior Di did not make a wrong judgment!"

Seeking a battle!

This was Xiao Chen taking the initiative to seek a battle. He blazed with a strong fighting spirit, so bright that no one could look directly at him.

This was the pride and confidence that Xiao Chen had in his heart. He would never overestimate or underestimate himself.

Di Feng revealed a deep and pensive gaze. With his insight, he could tell that Xiao Chen had not used much strength in that earlier display. It was more of a technique.

Borrowing strength to fight, using two hundred grams of force to face five hundred kilograms of force. This concept was nothing strange or rare in the Martial Epoch.

Di Feng himself knew this concept and was even an expert in this area. However, he had never seen anyone apply it like Xiao Chen had, appearing at ease and peaceful.

Unlike the thinking of others, Di Feng's thoughts were deeper. This skill of Xiao Chen should be from a unique Dao. It was far from being as simple as borrowing force to fight.

The entire place turned solemn. No one dared to underestimate Xiao Chen. Even the Vice Island Masters on the left and right were forced into silence by Xiao Chen's momentum.

One single person against ten Martial Emperors. If Xiao Chen really had such strength, what else were they unconvinced of?

Di Feng did not say anything. He only looked at the two Vice Island Masters on the left and right.

"If the Azure Dragon King fights ten elders of my Fiend Race alone and does not get defeated, I will be completely convinced of this and not say anything more against this."

"Right, as long as the Azure Dragon King can remain undefeated, I will have no objections!"

No matter where, the strong would always receive the respect they deserved. This was very clear. Xiao Chen had already proven his strength with his actions, obtaining the approbation of two Vice Island Masters.

In the two's opinion, as long as Xiao Chen remained undefeated, he was qualified to receive their submission.

After all, even when the two of them, Sixth Heaven Martial Emperors, faced ten Minor Heavenly Martial Emperors like that, they would find it tiresome. However, Xiao Chen was not even a Martial Emperor yet. Even so, he still had the courage to fight against ten alone. Anyone would be convinced of this.

"Vice Island Master Di, please give us an opportunity. We are willing to fight with the Azure Dragon King!" ten Fiend Race elders said in unison to Di Feng as they stepped out and knelt on one knee.
