Old Tian glanced at Prince and said irritably, "You fake prince, you don't understand the principles of Eastern martial arts."
"Ha!" Prince chuckled. "So what if we fought? What's with all the talk about whether it's worth drawing your sword? Old Tian, we've fought more than once back in the day. Am I not even worthy of you drawing your sword?"
Old Tian glared at the guy. This Prince was a notoriously eccentric fellow who liked to argue nonsense. He frowned and said, "You just don't understand. This is a martial arts exchange, not the kind of fighting you're talking about. Even if you are strong, you're not worthy of me drawing my sword."
Upon hearing this, Prince retorted angrily, "What did you say! I'm not worthy? Humph! Tell me, we've fought a few times, have you ever beaten me or not!"
Old Tian chuckled and said, "Not bad, not bad. I never said I beat you. We've fought a few times, and it's always been a draw. But Prince, you don't understand. What I was talking about with this Mr. Lin was the verification of martial arts, not an ordinary fight."
Prince's eyes darted around, and he deliberately feigned anger, laughing wildly, "Enough with the nonsense! You two, right in front of me, said things like others aren't worthy of you drawing your swords, clearly showing you don't take me seriously! Come on, you two don't have time to fight yet, I want to try it out first!"
After saying that, he actually made a move so rudely! He spread his arms and pounced on Lin San, who was standing on the dock, like a large bird! His speed was like that of a cannonball!
Lin San's face immediately turned serious. His right hand, which had been hidden behind his back, swiftly rose, and a silver light shot out from his sleeve. Upon closer inspection, it was actually a section of a sword! With a soft shout, a condensed, snow-white light descended, and Prince, who had rushed in front of him, was struck directly on the head by this sword light! With a crack, Prince's body was actually cleaved in two by his sword!
Lin San had just landed a fatal blow when his figure swiftly drifted backward! Sure enough, he saw Prince, who had been cleaved in two, explode with a bang. It turned out that what was clearly his body had somehow turned into a stone! The stone shattered, sending stone fragments flying everywhere and shooting towards Lin San!
Lin and the other two floated backward in mid-air, raising their arms. Instantly, they saw a shower of silver light falling from the sky, as if it had coalesced into a dense, inseparable network. It shone like starlight, accompanied by a dense, tinkling sound.
The countless fragments of stone that had been blasted into countless pieces were instantly annihilated by his hundreds, even thousands, of sword strikes! Not a single speck of debris even managed to get close to him!
But Prince's laughter came from the sky. He had somehow flown more than ten meters above the temporary structure. Standing high above, he clapped his hands and laughed, "Truly impressive!"
After laughing, he opened his arms and descended from the sky, his fingers like iron hooks reaching down to grab Lin San's head.
Lin San snorted, standing still with his sword drawn, waiting for Prince to descend from the sky. Suddenly, he took a step back. Prince's grab missed. Lin San had already lightly pointed his sword at Prince's chest. Prince twisted his body, his entire form contorting like a folding ruler. Lin San, having missed his target, couldn't help but raise an eyebrow! Prince's head was already pressed against the wooden planks of the dock. Although he remained in an upside-down position, his other hand had three fingers resting on the blade of Lin San's sword!
In that instant, a burst of light flashed in both their eyes, and their figures seemed to freeze simultaneously. Then, with a loud "whoosh," a dazzling light erupted from where Prince's finger had touched Lin San's sword. Within the light, their figures quickly separated backward, and simultaneously, with a deafening boom, the wooden planks on the dock shattered, and the river water below burst into a spray more than ten meters high!
Amidst the splashing water, Lin San's figure swiftly traced a straight line, landing far away on a rooftop beside the dock, frowning as he stared at Prince. Prince, meanwhile, flew through the air, somersaulted, and upon landing, raised his hand in confusion to examine his fingers. He didn't know what his fingers were made of. On the sharp blade of the sword, only a faint white mark remained; there was no blood, not even a broken skin.
Prince paused for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Indeed, a formidable opponent!"
Old Tian, who had been standing by and watching coldly, finally spoke up, clearly annoyed: "Prince, what are you doing causing trouble! This has nothing to do with you. What makes you think you're interfering?"
Prince glared at Old Tian: "We've been bickering for so many years, don't you know what kind of person I am? I just like to cause trouble everywhere. If you think I'm a nuisance, then go ahead and beat me up!"
Old Tian was speechless...
Prince is truly an anomaly in the world of superpowers. He's the kind of person who doesn't care about the world, and in the international superpower community, he's the most famous lone wolf. Speaking of temperament, he's a capricious fellow who's done a whole host of good and bad things. Wherever there's excitement, he likes to jump in and get involved, but he never has any principles of his own, as if he's doing things purely out of momentary interest. Whether it's beneficial or harmful to him is never his concern. However, his strength is so formidable that over the years, even though he's causing trouble everywhere, no one has been able to control him. Even those powerful organizations can only appease him with a gentle and amicable attitude.
He's a guy who does things without any rules or logic.
This madman, who seems to have a mental illness, is impossible to reason with. What's most frustrating is that the madman himself isn't scary; what's scary is that this madman also possesses terrifying and unparalleled abilities, which makes him a real headache.
The crazy things he did in the past are countless. A few years ago, he caused a ruckus in Africa. He inexplicably wandered to Africa and got involved in a warlord conflict. At that time, the conflict was backed by several Western countries, who supported local proxy forces to fight each other over things like mineral resources.
This guy just barged in like a madman. After wandering around the area for a few days, he somehow took a liking to a down-on-his-luck junior officer he'd picked up. Then, using his overwhelming strength, he slaughtered several warring tribes, leaving them in a bloodbath, and finally forced the officer into the position of warlord. This infuriated the Western powers behind him, who were utterly powerless against him. What's even more infuriating is that if he were doing this for his own benefit, that would be one thing, but not for him; he simply thought it was fun. He even ordered the warlord to promote Catholicism among a group of African tribes, forcing the tribespeople to believe in God! These poor people didn't even know what a Bible looked like, yet he forced them to make the sign of the cross and say "Amen."
This guy played around for a month, even staging a coronation as the pope of that temporary African nation. Then, after his interest wore off, he suddenly left one day, abandoning the huge mess he'd created. As for what happened after he left, the subsequent infighting among the various factions in that area had absolutely nothing to do with him, Prince.
It was only in recent years, after hearing that he inexplicably went to Japan, that this madman who harmed others without benefiting himself gradually disappeared from the international scene. When he left Africa, the heads of several Western powers were so happy they wanted to pop champagne and celebrate.
There's really no reasoning with such a madman.
Seeing that Lao Tian was speechless, Prince became even more excited: "If you don't make a move, I won't be polite!"
Having said that, he actually abandoned Lin San and lunged at Lao Tian in a flash. Raising his hand, a large tree beside him was instantly snapped in half and flew towards him. With a gentle push, it hurtled towards Lao Tian with a gust of wind. Even the kind-hearted Lao Tian was angered by this unreasonable madman. He snorted, and before the tree stump could reach him, he raised his hand and delivered a diagonal chop, silently splitting the tree trunk in two! But Prince had already reached him, grabbing at Lao Tian's head.
Old Tian gritted his teeth in hatred and could only stand up to meet the attack. A blade of energy shot up from his body, instantly transforming into several blades of energy. He slashed down at Prince, but Prince let out a long howl on the spot. He let out a sharp cry, like the call of some kind of bird.
With a whoosh, several blades of energy were shattered by the sound wave right beside him, without even reaching him!
Old Tian stomped his foot in anger and cursed, "Madman!" But when the sound wave crashed into him, he had no choice but to concentrate and deal with it. He struck with his palm, and a blade of energy sliced the sound wave in two, passing by him.
madman!
Old Tian cursed inwardly. This bastard had inexplicably provoked two S-rank experts simultaneously. Who in their right mind would do that?!
Seeing Prince and Lao Tian start fighting, Lin San frowned and stood aside, hands clasped. A man of his status naturally disdained to join forces with Lao Tian.
Just then, a soft and charming voice came from afar.
"Wow, it's so lively! I never expected to find so many experts here."
A light, ethereal figure drifted over like a wisp of smoke, landing on the spot. Long, curly hair flowed like seaweed, and a captivating smile graced her alluring face. Despite being a beautiful girl with Western features, she wore a loose-fitting kimono robe and wooden clogs, revealing delicate, petal-like toes. Her eyes swept over the three people present, and she chuckled softly, "Excuse me, does anyone here recognize a fellow named Chen Xiao?"
Upon hearing the name "Chen Xiao"...
Both Prince and Lao Tian's expressions changed simultaneously. Lao Tian frowned and stared at the woman for several moments. Although he had been secretly searching for Chen Xiao in Japan, he had never met the Sea God. He only went to Japan after hearing about the shipwreck and found Chen Xiao at the Shang Chen family's house. By then, the Sea God had already separated from Chen Xiao.
The woman before him possessed an exceptionally powerful aura. How could such a powerful and beautiful woman, whom he had never heard of before, suddenly appear in this world?
Poseidon's first notable appearance was undoubtedly in her epic battle with Peacock at sea. She originally served a mysterious new organization. This time, her actions, including her earth-shattering fight with Peacock at sea, were met with official suppression of the extraordinary news. However, the sudden emergence of this powerful figure quickly spread throughout the international supernatural community, and she was already on the radar of several major supernatural organizations.
Unfortunately, these three top figures in front of her didn't recognize her at all.
Lin San naturally secluded himself in the small courtyard on Jiayuan Island, isolated from the outside world. Prince indulged in the decadent and gentle life in Japan, while Lao Tian revisited old places in Japan and spent some leisurely days there.
So, when this recently famous new generation S-level expert stood in front of them, none of them knew who she was.
Old Tian's eyes held a hint of wariness as he looked at the sea goddess: This woman had rushed over and immediately asked Chen Xiao… Who was she?! Was she here to cause trouble for Chen Xiao? Chen Xiao had ruined someone's plans in Japan, and he'd heard she'd even killed several Japanese Onmyoji. Was she here for revenge? Although this woman was Caucasian, the fact that she was wearing a kimono made Old Tian wary.
Prince, on the other hand, had a much simpler and more straightforward idea. This lawless madman rolled his eyes a few times, then suddenly shouted, "I know Chen Xiao! Listen to me and help me. I'll tell you where he is!"
Old Tian roared, "Prince! What do you think you're doing?!"
Prince ignored him and looked at Poseidon with a smile: "Isn't Chen Xiao a very handsome young man with short hair who likes to touch his nose when he's nervous?"
