Chapter 74: Liu Jiaoxue
As a martial artist at the peak level of the acquired stage, Jiang Yuan Ji had a very strong sense of danger.
Therefore, he didn’t doubt that what just happened was an illusion.
It was a real life-and-death crisis!
However, seeing the numerous students around him looking at him with fear, he dismissed any thoughts about them.
Only Bai Chen stood out as strange in the crowd.
“Kid, did you do something?”
Jiang Yuan Ji spoke to Bai Chen with a hostile tone.
At that moment, Jiang Yuan Ji carefully examined Bai Chen.
Ordinary, too ordinary.
He gave off no energy at all, just like an ordinary person.
The gazes of the others also followed Jiang Yuan Ji as they focused on Bai Chen.
“What? What happened to that kid just now?”
“I don’t know! Didn’t the boss almost succeed just now? Why is he retreating again?”
“Is the boss saying that this kid did something? But isn’t he just an ordinary person?”
“Exactly! How could this guy defeat our boss at the peak level of the acquired stage? I could take him down with one hand!”
Yao Meng Qi and the other classmates of Nan Shi Yue also looked at Bai Chen with puzzled expressions.
Didn’t they say Bai Chen was just rural folk?
Why did it seem different now?
Could it be that Jiang Yuan Ji actually felt threatened by Bai Chen?
Nan Shi Yue also turned to look at this seemingly unremarkable brother-in-law.
In an instant, she recalled the first time she met Bai Chen.
At that time, Bai Chen was able to overpower her, who was at the early stage of the acquired stage.
This meant that Bai Chen’s strength was likely not weaker than hers!
Thinking about this, Nan Shi Yue’s gaze toward Bai Chen changed.
Could it be that he was hiding his true power?
Bai Chen calmly met Jiang Yuan Ji’s gaze.
“Jiang Yuan Ji, if you leave here now, I will let you go.”
“If you continue to be stubborn, don’t blame me for not giving you a chance later.”
Bai Chen didn’t care about anything else.
The only person he cared about was Nan Shi Yue.
He had merely given Jiang Yuan Ji a slight warning and hadn’t made a move.
But if Jiang Yuan Ji really dared to make a move, he certainly wouldn’t stand by and watch.
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, everyone present was stunned.
They all widened their eyes in disbelief as they looked at Bai Chen.
This guy actually dared to speak this way to Jiang Yuan Ji, who was at the peak level of the acquired stage?
With Jiang Yuan Ji’s strength, he could walk around Lintai without fear!
In Lintai, Jiang Yuan Ji was the strongest person below the innate level!
Even Su You Wei, the governor of Lintai, had to give Jiang Yuan Ji some respect and wouldn’t dare speak to him like that.
Yet Bai Chen had the audacity to shout at Jiang Yuan Ji?
In an instant, Jiang Yuan Ji’s subordinates all looked at Bai Chen with anger.
“Kid! How dare you speak like that! Are you looking for death?”
“Boss, I think this kid is just an ordinary person! Let’s take him down! We’ll feed him to the fish in the lake!”
However, Jiang Yuan Ji stopped them.
“Kid, state your name!”
Jiang Yuan Ji squinted at Bai Chen.
Bai Chen calmly looked back at Jiang Yuan Ji.
“You’re not worthy to know my name.”
Hearing Bai Chen’s words, even though Jiang Yuan Ji felt some wariness towards him, anger began to rise within him.
Who in Lintai dared to speak to him like that for so long?
“Kid, you’re quite arrogant.”
Jiang Yuan Ji glared at Bai Chen.
“Do you know what the consequences are for speaking to me like this?”
“Daring to provoke me, Jiang Yuan Ji, there’s no one else in Lintai with such guts!”
Beside them, Yao Meng Qi seemed to think of something. She turned to Jiang Yuan Ji with a flattering smile.
“Jiang, I know who that person is!”
Jiang Yuan Ji narrowed his eyes.
“Speak. I might let you go.”
Yao Meng Qi’s face lit up at his words.
This was exactly the reaction she wanted.
“That person is the son-in-law of the Nan family! Bai Chen, the husband of Nan Yue Ran!”
“And he’s just a rural folk who came down from the mountain! He doesn’t amount to anything!”
“I think this person doesn’t even know your name, Jiang, and that’s why he lost his mind and offended you!”
Upon hearing Yao Meng Qi’s words, Jiang Yuan Ji narrowed his eyes.
"Rural folk?"
At this moment, some of the little brothers around also began to confirm it.
"Boss, I think this guy looks familiar; he really is the son-in-law of the Nan family!"
"Yeah! He even competed with Yang Xiao Tian from the Yang Family for a wife! The whole Lintai knows about it!"
Hearing this, the stone in Jiang Yuan Ji’s heart finally dropped.
Since the people around knew Bai Chen’s background, it seemed Bai Chen was not some hidden master.
With this thought, Jiang Yuan Ji’s anger grew even stronger.
How could he, the top expert of the Liu family, be fooled by Bai Chen?
Where would he put his face?
"Bai Chen, is it? You won’t be leaving today; the fish pond outside will be your grave!"
Bai Chen slowly stood up and walked to Nan Shi Yue, shielding her behind him.
"Step back so you don’t get splattered with blood later."
Nan Shi Yue froze in place at Bai Chen’s words.
Li Xue fell into despair again.
Was he warning them that his blood would splatter on them?
Jiang Yuan Ji was a master at the peak level of the acquired stage!
What could Bai Chen do?
Jiang Yuan Ji looked at Bai Chen, who wore an expression of calm, with narrowed eyes.
"I see you’re acting tough even when death is near!"
“Die, you worthless fool!”
At that moment, many onlookers gathered outside the room.
Among them was a youthful and beautiful woman who passed by the doorway.
Her gaze instinctively turned towards the room.
When she saw Bai Chen, she froze in place.
“Why is he here?”
Liu Jiaoxue ignored everything else and rushed into the room.
Her small body burst forth with powerful energy, shoving everyone blocking the door aside.
When she saw Jiang Yuan Ji about to attack Bai Chen, her heart suddenly dropped, and she instinctively shouted.
“Big idiot, stop!”
Everyone was shocked by Liu Jiaoxue’s shout.
Jiang Yuan Ji stood frozen in place, sweat appearing on his forehead after hearing her voice.
“Big idiot! Are you looking for death?”
Liu Jiaoxue quickly approached Jiang Yuan Ji and kicked him.
Seeing Liu Jiaoxue, Jiang Yuan Ji’s heart sank; he didn’t dare to dodge.
In front of everyone, the fearsome Jiang Yuan Ji took Liu Jiaoxue’s kick without resistance.
At that moment, Jiang Yuan Ji looked like a rookie in front of Liu Jiaoxue, not daring to fight back.
“Big idiot, you’re getting brave! How dare you provoke someone I can’t even challenge!”
Hearing Liu Jiaoxue’s words, everyone gasped in shock.
Liu Jiaoxue’s identity was enough to astonish them, but what did Liu Jiaoxue mean by that?
Liu Jiaoxue turned to Bai Chen, her face showing a hint of embarrassment.
“B-Boss!”
Bai Chen looked at Liu Jiaoxue, surprised that she unexpectedly appeared here.
“Liu family, Liu Jiaoxue?”
In an instant, Bai Chen realized everything.
He had suspected that Liu Jiaoxue had an unusual background.
After all, being Su Qing Li’s best friend was not something an ordinary person could achieve.
Now connecting Liu Jiaoxue’s surname, the conclusion became clear.
Liu Jiaoxue was from the Liu family.
The others stood in stunned silence when they heard Liu Jiaoxue refer to Bai Chen as "Boss."
