Chapter Three: The disparity between Heaven and Earth!

...

"I don't wanna bully the weak, so make your move." Lu Chen said indifferently.

He was a dignified Defying Cultivator, so why should he lower his level because of this Ordinary Disciple?

Even though he was merely Body Refinement 1st layer, simply by using his whole strength he could fight one realm higher than him and can hold against the 3rd Layer of Qi Refinement. Why he would be afraid of Monkey's threats?

Lu Chen sneered.

Hearing that, the disciples broke out in commotion, in their eyes Lu Chen was definitely courting death! They know that Lu Chen was not only wasted bastard, but also a lowly mortal. When they heard the news of Lu Chen being crippled, they already treated him an ant, yet, this ant was courting death? They felt furious thinking of this. Especially for Ye Kun, his face was furious as red, and veins popped out on his head. He was a great Martial Cultivator, yet, a mortal dare to be arrogant in front of him?

"You've got guts, trash! Today, I will let you recognize the disparity between heaven and Earth." Ye Kun calmed down and said. He was a Martial Cultivator and this waste was only a mortal, lowering his status towards this waste was a humiliation for him. What if people talk behind his back? A martial Cultivator was bullying a mortal? Thinking of this, Ye Kun calmed down and ridiculed at Lu Chen.

"I will not be courting death if the person that come was stronger than me. Young Master Ye, of course, I won't lower my head to that somebody, but if that person provoked me... He will end up with something different." Lu Chen grinned, he look at Ye Kun and continued. "But since a defeated chicken provoke me again and again... I can't help but to only roast him up, Young Master Ye."

"Your courting death!"

Ye Kun's anger exploded as he pounced towards Lu Chen.

"Now, this trash will die for sure."

"Who told him to be arrogant?"

"Now death only awaits him!"

The disciples sneered as they look at Ye Kun who was making a punching motion towards Lu Chen.

"Trash, now die!" Ye Kun shouted and strike his fist towards Lu Chen's lower abdomen.

"Hmph!" Lu Chen calmly looks at the incoming punch. Although, this was his first fight after being transmigrated. The memories of the previous owner of this body, have helped him to attain some battle experience, adding his calm personality in his previous life. It was enough for him to figure out how to fight against his peers.

When the punch was about to hit him, Lu Chen didn't back out. He knocks his fingers and did a powerful punch towards the incoming Ye Kun.

Boom! Bam!

Ye Kun's eyes were mocking Lu Chen when he saw that Lu Che comforted him with his punch. But soon, his expression turned ugly. When their punches collide with each other. Ye Kun was knocked by ten or so meters. As for Lu Chen, he was knocked fifteen meters before stabilizing his stance.

The disciples were shocked as their eyes popped out. They thought that when the two punches will collide with each other. Lu Chen will certainly be blown out and died. But the outcome stunned them. They were both equally match, although Lu Chen was knocked back more than Ye Kun by several meters. For them, it doesn't matter, Because Ye Kun was a Qi Refinement of the 2nd layer while Lu Chen was a shrimp! They turn crazy as if they think their own eyes were tricking them.

How come a mortal equally match with Qi Refinement? They surely didn't believe it. But looking at Ye Kun's ugly face they were speechless and convinced by only watching Ye Kun's expression they immediately understand that Lu Chen was powerful.

[As expected, simply 80% of my strength is enough to beat this arrogant kid!]

Lu Chen smiled, in that move, he merely used 80℅ of his power. If he didn't hold back in that punch. Ye Kun will not only get knocked out ten meters by him, the worse he will surely coughed out some blood.

"Is that all, Ye Kun? You want to fight me with your strength? I said don't fight me with your lousy power, I'm even actually scared at myself when I act, much you who's only a little chicken... If you apologize right now it's not too late." Lu Chen smiled at Ye Kun watching his ugly face.

Listening to Lu Chen, Ye Kun's tremble in anger. If he backed out now, isn't that slapping his own face?

"Impossible! How can an insignificant mortal like you can fight me equally? I only used a normal punch in that move. Don't be arrogant you trash, this time I will beat you until you can't lift your head in the sky!"

Ye Kun didn't believe that this mortal was able to hold him. For him that was only a fluke, he never believed it, how can a wasted person have a tremendous power? Isn't that crazy?

He didn't talk anymore, his eyes turned cold. Again, he pounced on Lu Chen but this time, he didn't hold back. He concentrates his Qi towards his right hand and punched towards Lu Chen.

"Fart! I have given you enough face for a little chicken. Since you wanted me to comprehend the disparity between Heaven and Earth. I might as well enlighten you the world 'WEAK'."

Lu Chen was infuriated, his eyes turned cold, His feet tapped the ground, and sprint towards Ye Kun.

When they're both two meters from each other. Ye Kun aimed for Lu Chen's blasting his head into pieces. As for Lu Chen, he only sneered at him, once again, he pressured his foot into the ground, using his Micro step. He disappeared in front of Ye Kun and appeared behind his back as he punched without holding anything back.

Boom! Boom! Crash!

At that moment, Lu Chen disappeared. Ye Kun grew panicked, but it was too late when a punch landed on his back making him coughed out a fresh blood and blasting his body in the surface, then the ground shook, and a little fissure surfaced in the ground, sorted by Lu Chen's punch.

Ye Kun body was full of wounds, he couldn't move his body and can only look in the luminous sky.

Lu Chen appeared in his view and bends his foot and grinned. "Now you know the word 'Weak', Ye... Kun?"

Ye Kun was horrified as he looks at Lu Chen like seeing a monster. His whole aching body trembled and said weakly. "Yo-you, are you a monster?!"

The disciples who were present had looks of shock in their faces. They never thought that Lu Chen was this strong. If a while ago, they thought that Lu Chen was only equally matched with Ye Kun. Then now, they instantly thought of a 'Monster', at the moment Lu Chen defeated Ye Kun. They couldn't believe it as their faces show indescribable shock and fear. If Lu Chen cripples or break Ye Kun's arm, then the sect will not care for their life and death. Because a battle between outer disciples was unavoidable, there were even cases of killing which the sect only coldly watch them died.

In the Fragment Sword Sect, Outer and Inner disciples have totally different statuses in the sect. For example, if the outer disciples fight with each other, witnessed by numerous co-disciples, then the sect won't care for their life and death. Unless, they're an Inner Disciples who are nurtured by the sect, because if someone in the Inner Circle died. The sect will spend their whole cost and investigate the cause of death even if its openly or secretly. Because when you become an Inner Disciple your status will immediately sky-rocket since they're the future pillar of the sect. This was the fundamental truth, why would the disciples present shivered, when they thought how they humiliate Lu Chen. Because, if he was a vengeful person, then. Only deaths await them!... and they won't even get their Justice!

"As expected of Brother Lu."

"Yeah, I didn't know Brother Lu, hide himself so deep."

"Mhm, even I didn't notice it unless Brother Lu show it himself. Sigh, I'm really frog in the well. Brother Lu, I hope you pardon my ignorance."

The disciples hurriedly praised and apologized to Lu Chen, because their cultivation was only around First Layer, and some of them with unstable Second Layer which is weaker than Ye Kun. Provoking Lu Chen will only end them up to death, so by only lowering their heads, they can find a leeway.

Lu Chen who heard them only sneered on his heart. How could he a transmigrator, didn't know these people inner thoughts? It only made Lu Chen despite them even more.

[Fearing the strong and bullying the weak. They're truly coward people that are not fit for Martial Way.] Lu Chen sneered in his heart.

"Yes, I'm a monster, Ye Kun. I know Wang Peng sends you here to make trouble for me right?" Lu Chen smiled and continued. "Tell him, I Lu Chen will someday cripple him and feed him to the dogs... And you Ye Kun." Lu Chen's eyes flash into cold intent, he stood up, then he ridiculed Ye Kun and stomped on his four limbs infusing with his Body Refinement Energy.

Kacha! Kacha!

"AAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!"

After getting stepped, Ye Kun screams in pain, all his arms and legs were broken by the stomp. The pain made him feel like he was thrown in the hell as he wanted to roll over in the ground to diminish the pain. But alas, Lu Chen punch a while ago broken his bones in the back making him unable to move his body, he can only helplessly yelled out. Today, he was finally convinced that this guy in front of him was a man that should not be provoked. He was like a daredevil that didn't care for their own races; His really cold-blooded. But at the same time, he was confused. Because in the past no matter how he provoked Lu Chen, he will only end up getting bedridden for several days. But now, he crippled him without even showing mercy. Furthermore, Ye Kun trembled when he saw Lu Chen didn't even blink his eyes once breaking his bones.

He was truly frightened right now, there were only three words lingered on his head as if Lu Chen was telling him 'Don't Provoke Me'.

"Hmph! look at you, didn't I said I'm even scared at my self, yet you insist on attacking me? Do you think I'm easy to bully? Remember Ye Kun, this is not the end. You and Wang Peng are only stepping stones in my Ascension." Lu Chen bend down, patted Ye Kun's shoulder and whispered on his ears.

Hearing Him, Ye Kun spat out blood and was knocked out unconscious. His fear truly rises on his whole body making him fall unconscious.

Lu Chen snickered and stood up.

Seeing Lu Chen was walking towards them. They quickly made a path for him and bowed their heads.

[This is Power! Only by having power, one can do anything in his life.]

Lu Chen thought to himself as he looked at this disciple who their legs clearly become tofu in front of him.

Plop!

Only after Lu Chen disappeared in their view they breathe in relief, and some of them even stumble their butt in the ground.

"Quick, carry Ye Kun let's bring him for treatment."

The disciples didn't forget Ye Kun as they immediately start helping him.

Not long after the battle between the two, Lu Chen name quickly spread on several ears of the outer disciples. Although he only had beaten Ye Kun, his fame still spreads. Because they knew that Lu Chen was crippled not long ago. This triggered their curiosity.

_Mission Hall_

After he defeated Ye Kun, Lu Chen immediately walked towards the Mission Hall. He knows that the first layer of Body Refinement was insufficient to compete with geniuses in the outer court, especially with Wang Peng. Only by gathering Earthly and Heavenly Treasure, he could quickly leveled up, or else Wang Peng might find some troubled with him and he wanted to find the fast way to topple him. This made Lu Chen decided to go to the famous Cloud Demon Forest that was located several kilometers away from Fragment Sword Sect, and this mission in his hand was the best cover-up for him to leave the sect.

Gather 10 Green Essence Grass!

Difficulty: 4 star / 10 star

Location: Cloud Demon Forest.

[Perfect!]

Cloud Demon Forest was known to be the habitats of Ferocious Beast. However, there were countless medicines could be found inside the forest. Furthermore, there might even Earthly and Heavenly Treasure inside the place, this made the sacred place for the several neighborhood sect including Fragment Sword Sect. Lu Chen has no other choices because there are no other places that Earthly and Heavenly Treasure could be encountered. His option was only to go Cloud Demon Forest and try his luck!

After he read the content of the mission, Lu Chen immediately reported it to the Mission Elder, and after that Lu Chen headed towards Cloud Demon Forest.
