Chapter 1409: Aren't You Going to Kneel and Apologize to Senior?
Wu Chong was extremely worried that under the words of that idiot Lei Hao, Lin Chen might misunderstand him, which would be a disaster.
He had just become the disciple of Master Xing Yao, and if Lei Hao, this idiot, caused Lin Chen to misunderstand him, leading the Master to be displeased with him, then his yet-to-be-warmed identity would be at risk.
"Cousin, you finally arrived. It's this bastard. Look, he crippled both my arms and said that you, cousin, are nothing to him. He'll beat you up as well." Lei Hao sneered and exaggeratedly said as soon as Wu Chong arrived.
Upon hearing Lei Hao's words, Lin Chen remained indifferent, his gaze casually resting on Wu Chong.
"Are you his support?" Lin Chen looked at Wu Chong and asked indifferently.
He didn't expect Wu Chong to be Lei Hao's distant cousin.
It seemed there really were such coincidences in the world, and Wu Chong happened to be someone Lin Chen knew.
"Lin Chen, you're impudent. My cousin is an elder disciple of Yunlong Heavenly Palace and your senior brother. Yet, you dare to be so cold towards him. Kneel quickly and apologize, or my cousin will make you suffer." Lei Hao coldly said as he looked at Lin Chen.
Lei Hao thought that Lin Chen would be scared to the point of kneeling and begging upon seeing his cousin, allowing him to teach Lin Chen a lesson.
However, he did not expect Lin Chen to remain indifferent to his senior cousin, showing such arrogance, which made Lei Hao even more uncomfortable.
In the earlier battle, Lei Hao felt that Lin Chen's strength had increased compared to before entering Yunlong Heavenly Palace, but it certainly could not match his cousin who had already reached half-step to Creation Realm.
Moreover, his cousin was the young master of the Wu family in Yunlong City. Although the Wu family was not comparable to the Eight Great Noble Families in Yunlong City, it was still a strong family with certain influence.
Therefore, in Yunlong City, Wu Chong had many ways to finish off Lin Chen.
However, just as Lei Hao was thinking about how to gradually torment Lin Chen, making him suffer, a sharp pain suddenly hit his cheek.
Slap——
Wu Chong slapped Lei Hao's already bloated face hard, sending him flying.
The slap left Lei Hao stunned.
Did his cousin hit the wrong person? Wasn't he supposed to hit Lin Chen? Why hit him?
"Cousin, you must be mistaken. The one you should hit is him, he's over there. Why hit me?" Lei Hao said tearfully to Wu Chong.
Hearing this, Wu Chong was furious.
Damn, almost dragged down by this guy. If I don't beat him up, Lin Chen senior might be displeased with me.
Thinking so, Wu Chong started hitting Lei Hao again.
"I am not mistaken, the one who deserves to be beat is you."
"Lin Chen senior is such a person, how could you offend him? Kneel quickly and apologize to Lin Chen senior." Wu Chong said coldly, landing another slap on Lei Hao's face.
Then, Wu Chong put on a smile as he came before Lin Chen.
"Lin Chen senior, this distant cousin of mine just arrived at Yunlong Heavenly Palace and doesn't understand many things, hence he offended you. I ask for your forgiveness." Wu Chong said respectfully, looking at Lin Chen.
Upon hearing this, Lei Hao was immediately displeased and froze.
Why was his cousin so respectful to Lin Chen, even calling him senior?
Who did Lin Chen think he was? Just someone from that remote Eastern Domain, inexperienced, not any senior.
"Cousin, you must have been deceived by this guy. He comes from a remote place, why be so respectful to him?" Lei Hao said to Wu Chong while looking at Lin Chen.
Hearing Lei Hao's words, Wu Chong even considered killing him.
If he had known sooner that Lei Hao wanted him to deal with Lin Chen, he certainly wouldn't have come.
If he offended Lin Chen senior, the Master might expel him from the sect. Then, he could forget about learning advanced artifact refining and becoming a seventh-grade artifact refiner in this lifetime.
After all, becoming a seventh-grade artifact refiner was Wu Chong's lifelong pursuit.
But now, this dream could be ruined by this idiot cousin in front of him, how could Wu Chong let that happen.
"You know nothing, babbling nonsense. I've personally witnessed the power of Lin Chen senior. Kneel quickly and apologize to Lin Chen senior." Wu Chong scolded angrily at Lei Hao.
Upon hearing this, Lei Hao naturally refused to comply, feeling extremely uncomfortable. Originally, he sought his cousin's backing to teach Lin Chen a lesson, only to find his cousin in great fear and respect towards Lin Chen.
His cousin didn't stand up for him, instead asking him to kneel and apologize to Lin Chen. Lei Hao couldn't be willing.
Making him, who always felt proud, apologize to someone from those backwaters was a huge insult to him.
"I told you to kneel!"
Seeing Lei Hao unmoved, Wu Chong observed that Lin Chen hadn't intervened, feeling a tightness in his chest, hoping Lin Chen wouldn't be angry.
Thus, Wu Chong walked up to Lei Hao and kicked his legs, forcing him to kneel before Lin Chen.
Being kicked to kneel by Wu Chong, Lei Hao felt extraordinarily aggrieved, yet in front of Wu Chong, he didn't dare to resist, knowing Wu Chong's cultivation and strength greatly surpassed his own.
"Lin Chen senior, my cousin is too ignorant. Just treat him as a fart and let it go. I'll definitely discipline him strictly back home." Wu Chong apologized constantly, looking at Lin Chen.
In fact, Wu Chong was not punishing Lei Hao, but saving him.
Lin Chen's background was something Lei Hao couldn't afford to offend, and even the Flying Crane Sect wouldn't benefit from offending Lin Chen.
Having taken Lei Haotian's two hundred thousand low-grade spirit crystals, Wu Chong decided to step in. Otherwise, clearing his relationship with Lei Hao would have been far better.
