Chapter 2009: You Can't Convince Me

Jieni grinned, revealing his white teeth: "Like this, I'm afraid it's very hard to convince me."

"My apology is extremely sincere," Chen Yu grinned and said: "If you don't accept it, then there's nothing I can do."

"Besides, I am a very reasonable person. How about we just let this matter go?"

"Let it go?" Jieni looked at Chen Yu with some surprise, then revealed a set of white teeth, and he said with a smile: "Friend, do you think I'm easy to talk to?"

"Not at all. People who can own an entire bar in this district are generally very powerful, and you are also the type who can set the rules," Chen Yu shook his head and said: "So I don't think you are an easy person to talk to."

"That's right, I am not an easy person to talk to," Jieni sneered and said: "You smashed my bar. If you don't provide compensation that satisfies me, then sorry, I will kill you."

"Saying that is going a bit too far, it's not necessary," Chen Yu said with a smile: "Mr. Jieni, human life is not as worthless as you say."

"Haha, you're telling me human life isn't that worthless? Then let me tell you, here, human life is no different from an ant."

Jieni burst into laughter, as if he had heard some funny joke.

In District 12, human life is truly cheaper than the life of an ant.

Because this place is a place abandoned by God, many people who cannot make it and have nowhere else to go come here, trying to carve out a world for themselves, or rather, to survive.

However, most of them die here, because human life in this place is truly cheaper than an ant's.

"Even so, the one who is like an ant is you, not me," Chen Yu shook his head.

"Is that so?" Jieni slowly raised his head, his eyes emitting a faint red glow: "Soon you won't think so."

His power surged rapidly in this instant, reaching the level of a Level 3 powerhouse from outside the Domain.

Chen Yu did not know much about the cultivation system of the Western World, but judging from the aura radiating from him, this person was definitely not simple for a Level 3 powerhouse.

Moreover, Xueli beside Chen Yu also revealed a look of surprise, and she said in a deep voice: "Be careful, this guy is a Level 3 powerhouse, his strength is very strong; within our Pope's organization, at least an Archbishop-level figure would be needed to subdue him."

"Is he that powerful?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

He knew how strong the Archbishops within the Pope's organization were. The guy in front of him could actually alarm an Archbishop to take action; it seemed his strength was extraordinary, and he needed to be careful.

"Yes, powerhouses from Level 1 to Level 7 are all very formidable. The highest Level 7 powerhouses are Saint Domain-level experts, very difficult to deal with. Of course, that is for us; I don't know what proportion they would occupy in your Eastern cultivation system."

"Alright, I understand. Don't worry, it's not a big problem," Chen Yu smiled slightly and looked at Jieni: "Buddy, are you ready? I'm waiting for you to finish transforming."

"Heh, you're not bad, you didn't take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state. Not bad, you're a real man," Jieni nodded slightly, and with a grab of his right hand, a thin golden sword appeared in his hand.

He pointed the sword in his hand forward, and golden radiance appeared in his Double Pupils. He said in a deep voice: "But we are in a duel, you shouldn't, you shouldn't have womanly kindness toward your enemy."

"Not taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable state, that is the rule of our Huaxia," Chen Yu smiled slightly: "Since you are ready, shall we begin?"

"You shouldn't challenge the possessor of glory. Be careful," Jieni shouted, and then the sword in his hand emitted light and thrust toward Chen Yu.

Chen Yu did not show weakness either; his figure flashed, diving into the opponent's Sword Qi. A white Sword Qi whistled up, clashing with the opponent's golden Sword Qi.

The battle between two powerhouses was far beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

Every strike was pure power, without any flashy techniques. Even Xueli could not stay in the bar for long.

Immediately after, two intersecting rays of light shot into the sky, and with a hum, a ripple spread in all directions.

Boom... The three-story building of the bar disappeared under the impact of the light like dry wood snapping. A ray of light shot into the sky, and all the glass in the surrounding buildings was shattered.

Dust flew, and it could not settle for a long time.

And in the scene, two people had already appeared. Chen Yu stood with his hands behind his back, looking unfathomable, while Jieni was kneeling on one knee on the ground, his white suit in tatters.

The golden sword in his hand had also become incredibly dilapidated. His previous calm and elegant appearance had long since disappeared, replaced by a look of disarray.

Jieni tried to stand up, but after several attempts, he still helplessly knelt on the ground. He gasped heavily, staring at Chen Yu with his eyes: "Fine, it seems I underestimated you."

"You didn't underestimate me, but overestimated your own strength," Chen Yu smiled slightly and said: "You lost."

"Yes, I lost," Jieni gave a miserable laugh. He struggled to stand up, then grinned hideously: "So what? It's nothing more than a life. I said, in District 12, everyone's life is cheaper than an ant's."

"And this sentence applies to myself as well."

"Good, quite good, you're a real man," Chen Yu nodded approvingly: "You view all living things as ants, and you include yourself in that as well. Heh, that's quite good."

"The difference between me and ordinary people is nothing more than a difference in power; there is no other difference," Jieni slowly shook his head. He caught his breath, then stood up calmly.

He brushed the dust off his body, restoring a trace of his elegant and profound image, and said with a smile: "I never thought that here, someone would actually be able to defeat me with such an overwhelming posture."

"There are still many things you haven't thought of," Chen Yu said: "Now, take me to see the City Lord."

"On what grounds?" Jieni asked.

"On the grounds that I defeated you," Chen Yu grinned: "The various forces in the city are all under the jurisdiction of the City Lord, am I right?"

"That's right, all forces are under the jurisdiction of the City Lord," Jieni nodded: "So what?"

"I believe that if the City Lord wants District 12 to develop for a long time, he certainly wouldn't mind recruiting more powerhouses, and I am the person he needs," Chen Yu said with a smile.

"But I haven't figured out your identity. The most important rule for our City Lord when recruiting people is not to take in people of unknown origin," Jieni shook his head.
