Chapter 252: A Daring Gamble

Tianxin's aura was terrifyingly cold, the very void around him seeming to congeal. Even in the most ancient power of the Eastern Continent, he acted arrogantly, as if he were invincible under heaven, looking down on Yang Tian.

The scene was tense, on the verge of eruption. Yun'er clenched her small fists, her beautiful eyes fixed on the black-clad youth below. Her crescent-shaped brows furrowed together, revealing her inner worry.

The Heavenly Dao Alliance was immensely powerful. Even the Dan Valley would hesitate to meddle in a battle of this level.

“The people of the Heavenly Dao Alliance are too insolent!” In the hazy pavilion, the woman in white, like an immortal, furrowed her delicate brows, a hint of anger appearing on her exquisite face.

Slowly turning his head, Yang Tian looked at Tianxin's sinister demeanor, raised an eyebrow, and said flatly, “Is there something you want?”

Hearing this, Tianxin's face turned completely cold. His gloomy gaze swept over Yang Tian, his killing intent sharp as a blade, his words icy: “You people from the Eastern Continent are truly arrogant. Your strength on the continent is nothing, but your tongues are sharp. I've learned something today. But today, you'll leave your life here! Let you know who you can and cannot provoke!”

His fierce words fell, and the entire venue fell silent!

The people of Dan City still retained ancient customs. A group of young juniors stared at Tianxin with fierce, beast-like glints in their eyes, like little ferocious beasts.

Even many experts had unpleasant expressions. Tianxin's words insulted everyone from the Eastern Continent. He was the one stirring up trouble, yet he spoke as if he were righteous.

“Yang Tian, beat this little bastard to death!” Qing Yuan's gaze sharpened, a hint of coldness appearing on his face. The Eastern Continent might be weaker than the other three continents, but it was not for some junior to point fingers and insult.

“Such an arrogant junior.” At this moment, Wan Teng frowned. He possessed a divine body, with formidable cultivation, and was a hero of the Eastern Continent, extremely proud and fiery-tempered, unable to tolerate such words.

“Absolutely lawless!” The Great Elder of the Dan Valley murmured, killing intent surging in his eyes. He had been fearless since youth, and now the ferocity within him was stirred.

Many youths would fight to the bloody end for honor. The continent primarily cultivated battle qi, making dignity even more important. Many wanted to teach this arrogant man a lesson.

At this moment, Yang Tian noticed many youths showing battle intent. He nodded slightly. The Eastern Continent was their home, and outsiders had no right to challenge or insult it.

“You? I'm afraid you're not qualified!” Yang Tian's gaze fell on Tianxin, and he shook his head slightly, saying flatly.

His words carried disdain, and his confidence came from his own strength, and more importantly, his indomitable will. How could a peer easily shake him?

As Yang Tian's voice fell, a wave of cheers erupted from the dense crowd. Several young kings even jumped up, cursing loudly.

These people were from superpowers, with strong backing. They were all brave, fearless, and dared to say anything.

Tianxin's expression was very ugly. His cold gaze swept around. After a while, he cast a furtive glance toward the palace above. When he saw that an old man showed no intention of intervening, a ferocious smile instantly appeared on his face.

“I want to see how strong the people from the Central Continent really are.” Qin Shi looked at the two. He held a trace of disdain for Tianxin. Although he had lost slightly in the alchemy competition, his strength far surpassed Tianxin's; he was now a War King.

“This kid is not simple. I, Meng Tian, feel a resemblance…” A fat man rubbed his big hands, looking like someone who relished chaos, and sat cross-legged nearby, ready to watch the show.

Tianxin was extremely arrogant, acting as if he were the only one in the world, giving a great sense of oppression. He pointed at Yang Tian and sneered, “Kid, do you dare to fight? If you admit defeat now and crawl under my crotch, I'll spare your dog life.”

“Why is this person so annoying?” Dan Xiaoxiao raised her small fist, her two little eyelashes furrowed. She was very displeased with this man's sinister aura.

“Beat him to death!” Meng Lie was very fierce, growling. He had personally experienced Yang Tian's power; he couldn't last a single move. Yang Tian was extremely dominant.

“Beat that son of a bitch to death!” Shan Qu was also fierce now, muttering. He wanted to tell Tianxin that the person before him was an invincible figure.

“You know him?” Although Shan Qu's voice was low, it didn't escape his father's ears. His eyes, as big as copper bells, widened as he asked.

“Hehe, he's my friend.” Shan Qu scratched his head and smiled.

“This kid is not simple. I can't see through his strength.” Hearing this, Shan Xiong cast a strange glance at Yang Tian. Yang Tian's body was suppressed by the Ancestral Dragon Ring, making it extremely difficult for even strong experts to sense his true cultivation.

“Damn it, isn't playing one-on-one just asking for death?” Xing Hao curled his lips, full of disdain.

Hearing this, Yang Tian smiled and said, “What if you lose?”

“Ridiculous! Me, lose? Be defeated by someone from your Eastern Continent?” Hearing this, Tianxin laughed disdainfully, his mocking voice booming like thunder, hurting the ears of some low-cultivation cultivators nearby.

“I heard your Heavenly Dao Alliance auctioned a divine herb. If you lose, hand over that divine herb!” Seeing Tianxin's expression, Yang Tian shook his head slightly and said flatly.

Whoosh! At Yang Tian's words, the entire venue erupted in an uproar. The chaotic noise surged like tidal waves, sweeping through heaven and earth, even scattering the clouds in the sky.

“This little guy has quite an appetite…” Hearing Yang Tian's words, Meng Yunxi couldn't help but roll her eyes. Although she knew Yang Tian was very strong, things from the Heavenly Dao Alliance weren't so easy to take.

“Not bad, suits my taste.” The Outer Great Elder of the Dan Valley chuckled, a hint of appreciation in his eyes. A man's life should be about charging forward, fighting until heaven and earth collapse!

“Heh, this kid.” Yang Ba smiled helplessly, but there was a burning fire in his eyes. Now, with the Grand Void Token and his strength breaking through to War Emperor, very few here could stop them.

“A divine herb…” Qing Yuan's eyes blazed with fervor. A divine herb! Yang Tian's bet was a divine herb!

Tianxin's face grew colder. Although he was very confident in his strength, a divine herb was too precious, beyond his control. He hesitated for a moment.

“Young friend, you have great boldness. Since you want to bet, our Heavenly Dao Alliance naturally obliges!”

An aged voice spread throughout the venue. At the same time, a small white jade cauldron appeared in the middle of the scene.

“It's the cauldron holding that divine herb!”

“The Heavenly Dao Alliance is truly bold, using a divine herb as a bet!”

The crowd below went completely wild. It was exchanged for an eighth-grade pill, and though damaged, its value was immeasurable.

“That old man took the bait after all. A divine herb!” Xing Hao licked his lips, the fervor in his eyes growing stronger.

Tianxin clenched his fist and roared, “Our Heavenly Dao Alliance bets a divine herb, and you bet your life!”

With that, Tianxin's eyes revealed cold killing intent. He looked down on Yang Tian from above, acting as if he were the only one in the world.

In the venue, invisible killing intent spread. Tianxin exuded a cold murderous aura, generating a powerful oppressive feeling that made even cultivators standing far away feel a chill on their scalps.

Tianxin's strength was formidable. Just a trace of his aura made many cultivators unable to bear it, their hairs standing on end, a chill running from head to toe.
