Chapter 680: Sworn to Protect Senior Qan Chen
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Once Jiang Hao sensed the presence of Senior Brother Qian Chen, he quickly chased after him.
Unlike others, he was not affected by the Blood Pool. He moved faster than usual.
The Blood Pool actively cooperated with him.
This made Jiang Hao suspect a connection between the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl and the Blood Pool. It was not merely one-sided like he expected.
He couldn’t find an exact answer to this mystery, and he didn’t have time to think about it right now.
After some time, he finally caught up with Senior Brother Qian Chen. He had left the Blood Pool, and it appeared that he was returning to Devil’s Den.
When he looked back, all he saw was endless blood mist, as if it was a seal covering the Blood Pool from below.
As for why the Blood Pool had a connection to the Heavenly Fate Misfortune Pearl, he couldn’t come to any conclusions. Maybe even someone like Gu Jin didn’t know.
Next time, he might have a chance to ask him. If he could fully control the Blood Pool, it might be possible to let Senior Brother Qian Chen go, but he didn’t dare to attempt something like that.
People changed. Even if he didn’t mean any harm right now, he might not be so forthcoming next time.
When Chi Tian was in despair, he genuinely wanted to sacrifice his life. He was willing to risk it all.
However, after Jiang Hao fulfilled his revenge, he was not willing to cooperate at all.
Chi Tian was weak, so Jiang Hao didn’t need to worry about him. But Gu Jin was different. He was very powerful. He couldn’t be reckless.
After some thought, Jiang Hao noticed that the blood mist was beginning to dissipate. He found himself standing in a forest surrounded by blood-red clouds.
Boom!
A deafening explosion rang out, and a mist of blood filled the air.
“You won’t get away with killing your fellow disciples like this!” said Qi Yang furiously.
“I know you’ve been wronged, but the path I need to take requires me to do this,” Qian Chen said with regret. “I didn’t want to lay a hand on you, but forging a new path always demands sacrifice. It’s human nature. You and I are just a part of the big picture. I can’t stop now. We’ve worked hard for so many years and hidden for so long. It was all for today, and no one can stop us from succeeding.”
“No one can stop us!” said a group of black-robed individuals loudly.
“You’re insane! All of you are insane! This is the Blood Wish path! Senior Sister Liang Yue, you’ve fallen into a trap!” Qi Yang roared.
“I know. I’ve always known that this is the Blood Wish Path, and I willingly embraced it. Senior Brother Qian Chen never forced me,” Liang Yue said seriously.
“You’ve been corrupted,” Qi Yang said insistently.
“Enough! She won’t listen to us,” Xu Feng said.
From a distance, Jiang Hao watched this unfold. His gaze was fixed on Qi Yang.
“It’s been so many years,” he murmured silently.
Qi Yang had been his friend in the outer sect, but they had grown distant over the years. They hadn’t seen each other in over a decade.
He hadn’t avoided him, nor had he made any special efforts to find him. The sect was vast, and they didn’t run into each other.
Meanwhile, outside in the forest, Qian Chen sat cross-legged and meditated. He was surrounded by blood. A few blood gourds beside him oozed blood.
The blood encircled him and gradually merged with one another. Jiang Hao Imew that Qian Chen had begun the process, and he intended to complete it.
“Qi Yang, it’s your turn.” Liang Yue brought Qi Yang closer to Qian Chen.
“Senior Sister, you won’t get away with this!” Qi Yang roared.
“You don’t need to worry about that,” she said and struck out with her palm.
Bam!
As her palm descended, a blade of light swept through and severed Liang Yue’s arm.
Blood gushed out.
Everyone was shocked.
A mocking laughter echoed all around. “I’ve seen something quite interesting here.”
“Who is it?” Liang Yue and the others looked around warily.
“Who is this?” The laughter sounded from all directions. “Lift your heads and look up at the sky. I’m right here.”
They looked up and saw a figure standing in midair. He was holding a long blade in the dazzling sunlight. The blade light whizzed down.
Boom!
The group was pushed back, but no one was harmed. A figure with a large shield blocked the attack.
“Oh?” Jiang Hao was surprised.
There were indeed powerful individuals here.
A man in the early stage of the Return to Void Realm stood before the group. “Fellow disciple, please don’t meddle in our affairs.”
He wore a black robe, and his aura was restrained. His Return to Void Realm’s aura gradually manifested.
Jiang Hao found it hard to believe that such a powerful individual was influenced by Qian Chen.
“Don’t let him get close! Don’t let him disrupt Senior Qian Chen’s plan,” said the Return to Void Realm cultivator.
At this moment, formations appeared around them, and storms formed. It provided both defense and offense.
Dozens of powerful individuals around them jointly maintained the formation.
“Fellow disciple, we have a formation, and our cultivation realm isn’t weak. Why do you want to challenge us? What do you want? Can’t you just go your
ways” cne man asKea.
Jiang Hao pointed at Qian Chen. “Can I have him?”
“No!” said all the black-robed individuals. Their auras surged.
“In that case, I won’t hold back,” Jiang Hao said. He didn’t intend to waste words with these people.
He moved through the air. His blade’s killing intent spread.
Boom!
The blade intent collided with the formation.
Crack!
The formation shattered.
With the long blade in hand, he continued forward.
He used the first form of the Heavenly Blade, Moon-Slaying.
The individuals maintaining the formation were pushed back, and Jiang Hao went straight for the large shield.
Boom!
The moonlight penetrated the shield, which broke with a crack.
The defense artifact was obliterated.
The man was also sent flying.
At that moment, Qian Chen stood before them. The Moon-Slaying Technique continued to descend on them.
Just as it was about to strike Qian Chen, Senior Sister Liang Yue shielded him by throwing herself in front of him. She took the full force of the attack. Jiang Hao looked at her in surprise. “Why are you doing this?”
“Don’t… don’t you dare disturb Senior Brother Qian Chen,” Liang Yue said as she spit out blood.
Jiang Hao looked at her. “Do you know that he intends to sacrifice you too?
After he is done with others, it’ll be your turn.”
“I… know. I don’t care!” Liang Yue roared and struck out with her palm.
Boom!
Jiang Hao retreated.
At the moment he retreated, everyone shielded Qian Chen, and they confronted Jiang Hao.
“We pledge to protect Senior Brother Qian Chen with our lives!” the Return to Void Realm cultivator shouted.
“You’ll have to kill us first if you want to harm him,” someone else said.
Jiang Hao looked at them and laughed.
Then, he waved his hand and sent the remaining disciples flying backward. They all fainted with the impact.
Qi Yang was among them.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll do you a favor and let you die at the hands of your Senior Brother Qian Chen,” Jiang Hao said with a smile.
Just as they felt relieved, Jiang Hao said, “And then I will kill your Senior Brother Qian Chen to avenge you.. How about that? Aren’t I being good to you?
Hahaha…
