Chapter 262 The Genius of Nancheng
When no more metal powder fell from Xiao Chen's hand, Xiao Chen smiled slightly.
“Now, am I qualified to go in?” he asked.
"Hmm... Oh..." The man's face was blank, he hadn't come to his senses yet, and he just responded blankly twice.
Ouyang Muxue was very pleased with his expression and cheerfully invited Xiao Chen to come in with her.
That bright smile left the man speechless once again.
So beautiful...
Even the ice queen Ouyang Muxue could make such an expression...
After the two went inside, he slowly realized what was happening, and then an incredulous expression appeared on his face.
He immediately lay down on the ground and gathered the spilled metal powder together to examine it.
He genuinely suspected it was fake.
But that's just metal powder...
"Impossible, how could it be? How could anyone crush the Black Iron?" he muttered, as if in a daze.
Meanwhile, Ouyang Muxue had already led Xiao Chen into the exchange meeting venue.
"It's Ouyang Muxue! It really is Ouyang Muxue!"
"How strange that she would come here!"
……
The young masters from prominent families couldn't help but light up when they saw Ouyang Muxue.
The few female warriors clenched their fists and gritted their teeth.
When Ouyang Muxue arrived, the two sides were like fireflies and the bright moon.
"Who is that man? Why is he always by Ouyang Muxue's side?"
"Judging from his appearance, could he be one of Ouyang Muxue's attendants?"
Some people were also discussing it.
This statement has gained widespread acceptance.
"Ouyang Muxue, what a rare guest!"
"Miss Ouyang's participation truly brings honor to my humble abode!"
Three people came out to personally greet Ouyang Muxue.
The three men possessed an extraordinary air about them, unlike the others at the entrance.
The leader was the owner of this five-star luxury hotel.
"Greetings, all three of you." Ouyang Muxue's expression remained calm, her aloof demeanor returning as she gave a slight bow.
"Miss Ouyang, I heard that your grandfather woke up and recovered yesterday. I, Liang Jingtao, would like to congratulate you. I hope you have a good time here," the leader said with a smile.
"Thank you." Ouyang Muxue said sparingly.
"This must be your attendant. Just have him wait in the back; there's food prepared there," Liang Jingtao said casually, glancing at Xiao Chen.
“He’s not an attendant!” Ouyang Muxue immediately frowned. “His name is Chen Xiao, and he’s my future husband!”
This time, she was no longer shy; her eyes were resolute.
After he shouted those words, the entire scene fell silent.
Everyone stared at Ouyang Muxue and Xiao Chen in astonishment.
Is the goddess in the hearts of young martial artists in the South District already taken?
The guy in question is an unknown, unassuming wild boy...
How can those who are infatuated with Ouyang Muxue stand this?
In an instant, many hostile gazes were fixed on Xiao Chen.
Most people simply couldn't stand still in such a situation.
Xiao Chen felt helpless.
He and Ouyang Muxue really didn't have that kind of relationship...
It's too early to talk about a future husband.
Liang Jingtao's expression remained stiff for a while before he managed to regain his composure, though it looked very unnatural.
He was naturally somewhat interested in Ouyang Muxue as well.
After all, in the entire circle of young martial artists in the Southern District, Ouyang Muxue is the only female martial artist who is both talented and beautiful. She has an excellent temperament and a good background, and is recognized as the ideal partner.
"May I ask how this gentleman is addressed?" He bowed slightly to Xiao Chen and asked with narrowed eyes.
“Chen Xiao, from Nancheng.” Xiao Chen said calmly.
This time, even Liang Jingtao couldn't remain calm.
You, a country bumpkin, dare to touch the goddess of the southern district of the capital?
In their eyes, a small place like Nancheng is just the countryside.
What skills could someone from the south of the city possibly have?
The young scions of prominent families present almost all wore expressions of disdain and resentment.
How did this country bumpkin manage to get his hands on her?
It makes people both jealous and resentful.
"Since you've received Miss Ouyang's personal acknowledgment, Brother Chen must be an exceptional individual. Welcome to our exchange meeting in the Southern District," Liang Jingtao said, maintaining his composure.
But as he turned his head, he gave a wink to the two people behind him.
"From the South City? What kind of talent can come from that place? Hey kid, have you reached the intermediate level yet?" one of them asked with a stern face. "Young Master Liang may not care, but that doesn't mean we have no objections. If you're not qualified, you can't come in, not even if Ouyang Muxue is backing you up!"
“That’s right, rules are rules. Don’t think that just because you’re a country bumpkin, you’re above the rules. Even if you’re from the capital, you still have to follow the rules!” another person sneered.
Their words immediately drew agreement from those around them.
"You country bumpkin, go back to where you came from! This is not a place for you!"
"Hmph, I just look down on country bumpkins. Look at his pathetic state. Intermediate level? He'd be lucky to even reach the beginner level, let alone intermediate..."
"What the hell? I really don't know how Ouyang Muxue could have chosen such a person. She actually liked this kind of trash? The goddess has fallen after all!"
……
The sounds around her made Ouyang Muxue's pretty face darken.
She immediately wanted to rebuke him.
"Just intermediate level? Your standards are really low," Xiao Chen said first.
His tone was very calm, yet incredibly infuriating.
"Kid, what did you say?" The two men behind Liang Jingtao were immediately enraged.
"You dare say that? All you do is talk! Hmph, let me see what you're made of and prove it!"
After saying that, the man threw a punch at Xiao Chen.
Liang Jingtao winked at them, signaling them to deliberately cause trouble, embarrass Xiao Chen, and humiliate him.
Now is the perfect time to get started.
Xiao Chen frowned and waved his hand impatiently, as if shooing away flies.
But this one strike had the power to kill that person.
"boom!"
He flew backwards like a cannonball, creating a gust of wind along the way, which caused the woman in the skirt to scream.
"Boom!"
The man flew all the way to the side, his head plunging into the thick pillar, and his body slowly went limp.
The thick pillar trembled twice, its surface covered in cracks, as if it were about to be smashed, which made everyone's hearts jump.
The scene fell into a deathly silence.
Some people could hardly hide their surprise.
Liang Jingtao's pupils contracted.
Just a flick of the wrist...
How could it have such terrifying power?
This kid...
What exactly is their strength?
The person who made the move was also quite skilled, ranking in the middle among those present. How big is the difference in skill level?
No one dared to underestimate Xiao Chen's strength anymore.
"Sorry, I've already held back, but unfortunately he still can't take it," Xiao Chen said indifferently.
Some people's faces turned dark.
This kid is really infuriating.
"I don't remember there being any respectable young martial artists in the South City, right? Where did this kid come from? Is he really from the South City?" someone said with surprise and doubt.
"Chen Xiao? I've never heard of this name before. Who is he?"
Everyone speculated about Xiao Chen's background...
