It must be his next of kin that could go to Jiang Chen's rescue regardless of
danger when he was in such a crisis .
Jiang Qingyu was wearing a white robe, fair-skinned and beardless . The
father and the son’s eyes looked very much alike . His thin lips, pressing
together, looked like a knife blade .
He landed before Jiang Chen from the air, emitting such a strong energy that
those from the Constellation Palace and the Sacred Martial Arts Institute were
obliged to take a few steps back .
“Father?!” Jiang Chen was pleasantly surprised . Throwing the Flying Dragon
Dynasty a glance, he realized their trump card was exactly his father .
The thing was his father had just broken through to great Venerable, and he
was alone .
For others, it was an enviable thing to have a father who was great Venerable .
“I knew it . He is too talented to come from an average family . ”
“Gosh, this great Venerable is so young . ”
“Since when there are so many strong people in the Three Lower Realms?”
Jiang Qingyu was less than forty . He was even younger than Star Venerable,
but he was already a great Venerable .
His father is a great Venerable?!!
Tang Shiya, who never doubted that she had made a correct decision, sprang
to her feet immediately . She couldn’t believe it was true .
Her parents were only Celestial Venerables .
“Why didn’t he tell me? Why did he never tell me?!” Tang Shiya almost broke
down . If she had known it, she might have left him the loving heart .
Obviously, Jiang Chen didn’t give her the chance .
“The bronze cauldron, that scripture, such a high talent and a great Venerable
father!”
Tang Shiya flopped into the chair weakly, petrified .
Since a great Venerable had shown up, those from the Heavenly Cloud
School's Six Peaks and three palaces couldn’t sit still anymore .
They only had some Celestial Venerables here, not a match for a great

Venerable at all .
Despite his state as a great Venerable, Jiang Qingyu was too young to
convince the people .
However, they had refused to believe Jiang Chen was a Spiritual Venerable,
too, but in the end, they all witnessed how great Jiang Chen’s performance
was .
Jiang Chen’s father must be very good, too .
The old man from the Sacred Martial Arts Institute flew into the air as quickly
as possible to confront Jiang Qingyu face to face .
“He is your son?” the old man said, pointing at Jiang Chen .
“Cut the crap . Jiang Chen is my son, and Taoist Priest Skywind is my master . I
guess you still remember him . You killed him one year ago in the Alien
Battlefield!” Jiang Qingyu said in a clear loud voice .
“What?”
The crowd was shocked again .
Jiang Chen accused the Sacred Martial Arts Institute of stopping others from
breaking through to great Venerables, but he couldn’t show any evidence
when asked to .
However, Jiang Qingyu mentioned the location, the time and the name in his
accusation .
…I’m not a match for him, the old man looked into Jiang Qingyu’s eyes,
shocked by the sharpness of the latter’s look .
He said right away, “You sounded so sure of it . Did you see it with your own
eyes? If not, how could you defame the Sacred Martial Arts Institute like this?”
Yet in the next breath, the old man said with a different attitude, “That being
said, last year we did have some men in the Alien Battlefield . Do you want to
question one of them?”
“Sure,” Jiang Qingyu said .
Jiang Chen said anxiously, “Father, he is stalling for more time so that they
can deal with you after more people arrive . ”
“I know it . Son, don’t worry about me,” Jiang Qingyu said .
“Your son killed our lord’s son . He has to pay the price,” seeing the Sacred
Martial Arts Institute couldn’t be of any help, Star Venerable said involuntarily .

Jiang Qingyu cast him a look and slapped across his cheek without saying
anything .
Star Venerable failed to dodge . The slap sent him staggering backward .
Jiang Qingyu said, “Who do you think you are? You threatened to kill my son .
I haven’t settled accounts with you for that yet . How dare you mention to me
the price he has to pay?”
Next to them, those from the Sacred Martial Arts Institute were anxious and
scared . If the Constellation Palace really flew into a rage, it would be hard to
say what would happen .
“You mean we shouldn’t do anything for the death of the Constellation
Palace’s young master?”
Star Venerable asked . He hardly had any time to cover his swollen face with
his hand .
“What do you want?” Jiang Qingyu had come here to revenge . As a result, he
was aggressive and oppressive .
At this moment, the old woman from the Constellation Palace came up to Star
Venerable to whisper into his ear .
“Let’s perform a Lingwu Trial,” Star Venerable said .
His proposal made those from the Three Middle Realms keep exclaiming .
They couldn’t believe what they had heard .
Lingwu Trial was an ancient tradition of theirs .
It was to resolve a dispute like this, in which the wrongdoer died and the
murderer pleaded not guilty .
Lingwu Trial was usually performed when the two interested parties were
forces with equal strengths .
Like the Dragon Palace and the Martial Arts Divine School there .
However, this Jiang Qingyu came out of nowhere . Was the trial really
necessary?
To give it a second thought, the Constellation Palace actually had made a
smart move .
No matter how angry they were, they couldn’t do anything to Jiang Chen in
the presence of Jiang Qingyu .
So, if the result of the trial wasn’t favorable for them, it wouldn’t affect their

future revenge .
And it would be perfect if it was favorable for them .
Jiang Chen didn’t want a Lingwu Trial at all . He was extremely anxious .
According to Fan Tianyin, the Sacred Martial Arts Institute had about twenty
great Venerables .
The Flying Dragon Dynasty’s great Venerables, plus his father, only made five
or six people .
As to the other forces, he would feel lucky if they didn’t offer the Sacred
Martial Arts Institute any help .
However, his father sounded so sure, and those from the Flying Dragon
Dynasty looked so confident, that he felt like his concern was unnecessary .
“Who will represent you?” Jiang Qingyu, familiar with Lingwu Trial, asked out
of curiosity .
Star Venerable didn’t answer him, but two figures appeared in the air, one
man and one woman .
They were the two people Jiang Chen saw earlier on the sea .
“Fengyu Duo!”
The folks from the Three Middle Realms were extremely excited, as if they
had seen their idols .
“Long time no see,” the woman said to Jiang Chen .
“Do you dare or not?”
The man, eager to have a good fight, tried to irritate Jiang Chen to accept the
challenge . However, his question sounded stupid .
“You are eager for a fight, don’t you?”
Jiang Chen looked at the man, angry .
“Of course . ” The man nodded .
“Jiang Chen, the men of the Sacred Martial Arts Institute haven’t arrived . Take
the chance to have this fight with him,” Jiang Qingyu said .
“Is he good or not?”
Fengyu Duo was strange to the people of the Three Lower Realms .
The man was also a Spiritual Venerable in the middle stage . However, since
Jiang Chen had defeated Young Master Xuanji, he probably would lose, too .
Jiang Chen’s attack and defense were both good . And no one could tell
whether he had gone all-out just now .
“They’ll fight together,” Star Venerable said .
He meant Fengyu Duo would fight against Jiang Chen together .
It created a heated discussion . Those from the Three Lower Realms couldn’t
accept it . By comparison, realizing how interesting the situation was, those
from the Three Middle Realms started to expect the fight .
“Jiang Chen, it isn’t because we want to take advantage of you . ”
“Fengyu Duo are closely connected . They practice the same methods . And
their martial arts techniques are complementary . They never separate with
each other in the Three Middle Realms,” a man from the Constellation Palace
said .
This information was important .
It was allowed to have two people fighting as a group in the Three Middle
Realms, but it was only limited to unimportant competitions . For a life-or-death
duel like this, Jiang Chen had the right to refuse to fight against a two-person
group .
Nevertheless, the Constellation Palace intentionally didn’t explain it .
The seriousness of the situation was even beyond the man’s expectation .
He exchanged a look with the woman . He wished he could have come earlier
to see how Jiang Chen had fought .
Their curiosity was piqued . They wondered what kind of performance Jiang
Chen had showed .
“Apprentice brother, shall we stay out of it? If we meddle in, we’ll get
ourselves into big trouble,” the woman said in a low voice .
“What are you afraid of? If he loses, it only means he isn’t good enough . ” The
man didn’t think it a big deal . Jiang Chen had cracked his sword method in the
presence of the woman . He was eager to revenge himself .
That being said, he didn’t want to take advantage of Jiang Chen . He said, “I
have an idea . I’ll fight against you first . My apprentice sister will stay aside .
What do you think?”
“Whatever . ”
Jiang Chen got onto a platform that was still intact .
He was suddenly so decisive . That was exactly what the man wanted .
