72 Lightning Beats Water and Fire Beats Wind

Jiang Chen "Are you really that confident, that Wind beats lightning and Water beats fire."

Jiang Chen "I have also studied,lightning beats water and fire beats wind."

Jiang Chen "Are you expecting me to fight you in disadvantage? That is very laughable."

Jiang Chen "You told of all the enemies I made. But you didn't count yourself in, are you that confident that I would kill you the very first encounter."

Xie Yang "What a joke. You dare to kill me? Xie family will not let you go."

Jiang Chen "That is secondary, why are you bothered about what happens to me later on? Does it really matter what happens after you are dead. Also how will others know that I killed you? Are you expecting me to leave your body for others to see. I won't do such things."

Jiang Chen "I don't leave the bodies of people I killed." just as Jiang Chen spoke he released his killing intent, it was too sharp, Xie Yang had a feeling like millions of sharp needles are piercing through his skin.

Xie Yang "Jiang Chen, my family will definitely know about it, when they know they will not leave anyone in your family. Your Jiang Family will never exist in Grand Heaven's continent."

Jiang Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry at it. He burst out laughing hearing this. He himself was trying to find origins of Jiang Family, he was dead sure it is not in GHC.

Jiang Chen "You want to eliminate Jiang Family from GHC."

Xie Yang could feel some pressure from this. Jiang Chen, did not even think about it for a moment.

Jiang Chen "Xie Yang, you may think yourself as my enemy or rival. But I will tell you, i don't even consider you as my enemy. You Xie family have over 500 members here. Leave about them, your own faction have over 200 members. I don't even have to get involved, I just have to support either Xie Ming or Xie Chen, I don't have to do a lot too, just the scraps of my work, can make them more powerful than your faction."

Xie Yang "I will support Xie family according to Xie family, but you will turn insignificant. I can make that happen. You don't have to doubt my words."

Xie Yang's forehead was covered in sweat.

Jiang Chen "Xie Yang, you were bit smart, when you decided to avoid me. I already expected one day your pride to awaken and you will challenge me."

Jiang Chen "But, it happened just in a day. That is too fast. You sure don't have the capabilities to challenge me, you know it very well yet you came here. Who is that guy challenging me."

Xie Yang "What do you mean by this?"

Jiang Chen "You idiot, you are being manipulated by someone. You should know you are not the big dog here, some one smarter than you came into picture."

Xie Yang almost felt vomiting as Jiang Chen spoke, Jiang Chen completely disregarded him, that is one thing, then now he called him a pet dog.

Jiang Chen "Ha ha it would be fun, I doubt there would be strings there. "

Jiang Chen "Xie Yang get lost now. Don't come challenging me again. You need someone stronger to protect you. But next time you challenge me, I would respond before all the disciples in our peak. You may think it would be just a fight. It would not be that simple."

Xie Yang didn't know what to respond to what Jiang Chen said. He was sweating like mad. His method vs Jiang Chen's method there was a stark contrast.

Jiang Chen "Xie Yang ,if I get to know that our conversation is leaked. I will challenge you to a duel. After that, you can forget about, ever becoming patriarch of Xie family."

Xie Yang was very scared after this encounter, Jiang Chen should never be confronted alone. He learned it hard way. Jiang Chen's methods are vast and his abilities outclasses everyone.

Ha Ling "Jiang Chen, who do you think is behind this?"

Jiang Chen "When two dogs fight, always the the victor is third dog."

Jiang Chen "He/ she is till in background."

Ha Ling "You scared the shit out of him."

Jiang Chen "We have to suppress that pride, else it would bring problems lot sooner."

Ha Ling "How confident are you?"

Jiang Chen " It is not about confidence, it is about methods. Xie Yang is already an enemy for us."

Jiang Chen " But for now, I suppressed his confidence and made him think that is no match for me. That would stop his advances for now. I can't deal with him directly, it would be just what our hidden enemy is expecting me to do."

Ha Ling "Who could it be?"

Jiang Chen "Xie Ming is one of the candidates. WuXia will also be a candidate. One of the three hidden trump cards could also be in it. There are over 9000 people for us to suspect."

Ha Ling " It would be tough to narrow down."

Jiang Chen "It would be. To manipulate Xie Yang is not that easy, you already saw, how much scared Xie Yang was of me. I am yet to narrow down, what our enemy is expecting to happen."

Ha Ling "What do you mean brother."

Jiang Chen "What would you have done, if you are in my place?"

Ha Ling "Hmm, I would have rejected him. Also ignored his threats."

Jiang Chen "I instead counter threatened him."

Ha Ling "Yes."

Jiang Chen " Now possibilities would depend on how smart my enemy is. If he had expected me to threaten Xie Yang, he would have expected one particular possibility and I entered right into it."

Ha Ling "But that is least possible outcome right."

Jiang Chen " We can't be sure of it. You should always expect the strongest enemy."

Ha Ling "But that is just one possibility and you are not able to narrow down the outcome."

Jiang Chen "There is one particular outcome, Xie Yang will be less threatening now. That outcome is more suitable for Xie Ming, Xie Chen and also if there was another party who want to seize the opportunity."

Ha Ling " Then expecting normal outcome?"

Jiang Chen "There would be a more visible conflict between me and Xie Yang, it will drag Xie family too."

Jiang Chen "This outcome is favorable to two types of people, one for my enemies, there is high chance of my death. Second is, I will get a support from a third party, right at the time of my imminent death, so I would owe them a favor or would join them to get my revenge."

Ha Ling "Who are you expecting it to be."

Jiang Chen "I haven't yet narrowed it down. I will not rule out any possibility."

Ha Ling "Sai family? Han family? Xue family? Xie family? Yin family? Ning Family?"

Jiang Chen "Cangtok city Pill Palace. I am their enemy too. They would support the family that would take me down."

Ha Ling "But, they would not go to lengthy extreme."

Jiang Chen "It is true, the gains are too limited in this."

WuXia "You even named me as enemy?"

Jiang Chen " That is just to expand my horizons."

WuXia "We almost expected it to be peaceful."

Jiang chuckled at this.
