The battle continued and as time went on the more she yearned for that spear. She herself seemed to not even realize that. It was as if she had entered the most impressive ilusion and could not leave that ilusion as long as that spear was still there fighting.
As the battle went on those old men saw more and more of their comrades dying so they became terrified. Why did they have to do this? Couldn't they just have given the techniques back? At most they could get to a compromise, right?
The idea of stealing things from this madman was from the royal clan, they wanted the techniques Liang Chen had discovered in the many ruins he went to. And they did have some success after several years and numerous sacrifices. They were happy but now they immediately regretted it.
They were giving it their all, using all kinds of techniques and treasures but this madman was only using normal spear methods that even a mortal could use. It was humiliating. And the worst thing was that countless people in the capital were watching this. Their reputation was ruined and perhaps even their clan's.
Suddenly Liang Chen sent them all flying by doing a 360 degree rotation with his spear around him and they went all flying backwards.
"Little disciple you think the sword is amazing but today I will change your mind. I will teach my first spear technique I created when I was young. When I was young I simply thought the spear was all about thrusts and so I created a technique just based on that."
As soon as he finished saying that he held his spear forward with his right hand and made a backward motion quickly stabbing toward his opponents, as soon as he did that hundreds of spears appeared and stabbed forward.
Even though this technique to the others seemed like it could be easily dodged that was just to the inexperienced, in fact this technique was incredibly domineering. As soon as those spears manifested many of that group thought they were facing an army armed with the most fearsome spears ready to tear them open and take their heads on the passing while always rushing forward withouth ever stopping.
"Quickly activate all of your life saving methods! Don't hold anything back!" the gold robed old man whose robe was now messy and full of tears and blood all over.
All sorts of treasures came forward and all kinds of techniques and talismans. The result was obvious for all to see. They were incredibly weak compared to the hooligan in front of them. Just a simple technique put them all in a bad spot. They were all heavily injured.
"Senior can't you do something?" an incredibly worried voice whispered inside the palace. That person was a woman that seemed to be on her prime with incredible beauty, at her side was a boy. His face although was of a 12 year old there were traces that when he grew up that he would be incredibly handsome. Sitted on a formation in front of them was an old man with unfathomable cultivation. That old man had an incredibly solemn face. He had heard of that Liang Chen before but he didn't think he was this fearsome. Even he didn't have even 10% confidence to kill that man. That spear was truly terrifying.
"No, at the moment I'm afraid I can't. Go according to the plan master devised." he said as he hurried to send his ki towards the formation. With that his presence completely vanished.
"Yes, senior." the woman said as she gritted her teeth as her nails went through her hands and blood began falling.
"Mother. I can do it. If it's for mother i can do anything." said the boy with a caring voice.
"Little Xiu..." she said clearly worried bht soon continued "Our future will be on your hands Little Xiu."
"Yes mother."
As soon as the two finished speaking she flew to the air and yelled as loud as she could. "Master Chen! It has been a long time. How have you been? If Master Chen wanted to see me you could have directly come to me."
"Little Beauty you have got it wrong. It is not me who has to come to you but you to me. I really can't be tied down to a single woman my handsomeness has to be spread around."
On the inside she was insulting him but on the putside she put on a lovely smile that could make all men and even women instantly fall for her charm.
"Master Chen I would like you to met your son. Little Xiu come here to met your father."
"Yes mother. Father it's an honor to finally meet you. I have heard of many of your accomplishments and battles."
Liang Chen just stood there saying nothing and even his domineering spear was lowered. On the outside he seemed to be normal but on the inside he couldn't even think. His mind was compmetely blank.
"What did you say?" He asked in complete confusion.
