Chapter 2585: Chapter 2588: Being Followed (Extra for ‘New Guest’)
Amidst the lush mountain range.
Buzz!
Above a mountain stream, the space fluctuated momentarily, and six figures appeared.
"Brother Su, let’s go together!"
Huo Langtian invited with a light smile.
"Alright!"
Su Lieyang nodded.
The two cupped their fists towards Zuo Lincheng: "Brother Zuo, we’re off first!"
"Alright!"
Zuo Lincheng smiled lightly and returned the salute, but in his heart, he sighed, truly isolated!
The four members of the Su Family and Huo Family walked together, while Zuo Lincheng silently led Zuo Qiqi away.
As the six left, a figure flashed from afar on the mountaintop.
"The Su Family, Huo Family, and Zuo Family have all left, those two bastards should come out now, right? Jiang Chen, daring to kill my son, you’re as good as dead!"
This figure was the Canglan Army’s leader, Lin Zhong!
After leaving the space of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan, Lin Zhong did not depart. Instead, he found a mountaintop with a wide view to heal while monitoring the space above the stream, awaiting Jiang Chen’s appearance.
A day later.
The space above the stream trembled again, and two figures appeared in the air.
Whew!
Taking a deep breath and exhaling long, Jiang Chen glanced down at the golden space ring in his hand, a slight curve on his lips.
This was the space ring Jin Tianqiong gave him to refine the God Concealing Pills. It contained the entire collection of spiritual herbs and fruits from the Gold-devouring Rat Clan. In the ancestral land, Jiang Chen spent half a month crafting more than two hundred God Concealing Pills, making Jin Tianqiong and others ecstatic.
In the remaining month and a half, Jiang Chen continuously refined elixirs until the time was almost up before he stopped.
In Jin Tianqiong’s space ring, over a thousand jade vials were added during these two months, with at least five elixirs in each.
Jiang Chen’s speed in pill refining astonished Jin Tianqiong and others.
However, Jin Baisheng understood that Jiang Chen’s Primordial Spirit was nurtured by Dragon Qi, he utilized Long Yan’s flames, applied ancient pill master’s techniques, and his Primordial Spirit was refined exceptionally. With these major assists, crafting elixirs from grade one to five posed no pressure, while grade six elixirs only consumed a little time.
Upon Jin Baisheng’s suggestion, this space ring became Jiang Chen’s, and Jin Tianqiong generously allocated him half of the contents inside.
"Hu Zi, let’s go, I’ll take you to see my academy!"
Jiang Chen, in an excellent mood, remarked with a gentle smile.
This time, the harvest was immense, subduing Long Yan, utilizing a strand of the original fire seed from the Golden Annihilation Flame to directly elevate the Heaven and Earth Furnace cultivation technique in grade, gaining endless spiritual herbs and fruits, along with some already crafted elixirs.
Most importantly, acquiring the true friendship of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan.
Previously, Jin Ming protected Jiang Chen, but he couldn’t represent the entire Gold-devouring Rat Clan. Now, Jiang Chen is undoubtedly a benefactor of the entire clan!
"Alright!"
Yan Hu chuckled lightly upon hearing this.
Then, thinking of something, Yan Hu’s expression slightly changed, looking at Jiang Chen apologetically: "Young Master, I shouldn’t have broken through!"
Hmm?
Jiang Chen was slightly startled, quickly realizing: "It’s okay, I’m heading to the Divine Infant Realm’s Extraterritorial Battlefield, are you thinking that anyone there could threaten me?"
Yan Hu froze slightly, earnestly replied: "Young Master is invincible in the same realm; nothing will happen!"
"Haha!"
Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, signaling: "Let’s go, although we have the Essence Blood from the Gold-devouring Rat Clan, we should still be cautious, avoid heading into a group of demonic beasts."
"Yes!"
Yan Hu nodded.
Originally, Jin Ming planned to escort the two away, but the grand competition was approaching. The Gold-devouring Rat Clan’s emergence this time would inevitably cause a stir, and Jin Ming, as the Great Elder, had many responsibilities. Jiang Chen tactfully declined Jin Ming’s offer.
The two carried a drop of Essence Blood from Jin Ang, making their bodies emit the aura of demonic beasts in the Saint Monarch Realm. In this Demonic Beast Forest, as long as they didn’t venture into the Central Region, they could essentially move freely.
Swish, swish!
The two discerned their direction, soared into the air, and swiftly flew towards the forest’s outer regions.
Not long after they left, a figure on a nearby mountaintop flickered and disappeared.
"Hu Zi, we’re being tracked by a Late Integration Realm stage expert, be cautious!"
After traveling dozens of miles, Jiang Chen cautiously reminded.
Yan Hu’s eyes shifted, gently nodding, his eyes showing a hint of concern: "Young Master, are they going to attack us? You find a place to hide, and I’ll draw him away!"
"You can’t draw him away!"
Jiang Chen’s eyes showed a cold glint: "His target is me!"
Yan Hu furrowed his brows, a hint of anger in his eyes.
"Hu Zi, take this Essence Blood and leave first, I’ll lead him away!"
Jiang Chen whispered, taking out a red crystal the size of a thumb from his chest. This was the Essence Blood from Jin Ang.
"Young Master, we’ll die together if needed!"
Yan Hu refused to take the Essence Blood.
In the Late Integration Realm, they were not opponents; Yan Hu was prepared to die here.
"Why die? Can’t you live well?"
Jiang Chen rolled his eyes at Yan Hu, forcibly placing the Essence Blood into Yan Hu’s chest: "Did you forget? I have Grandpa Jin’s... Great Elder’s Protective Jade Amulet, and Teacher Hei Shan’s, if he really attacks me, I can casually call someone to sort him out!"
Yan Hu was stunned upon hearing this, realizing it; to take Jiang Chen’s life, a Late Integration Realm wasn’t even enough for a tooth gap!
"You leave with the Essence Blood first, I’ll take him for a spin in this Demonic Beast Forest, find a hidden spot to dispose of him. If it is discovered that he’s a Canglan Army member, it’s bad, better leave no trace of a body!"
Jiang Chen instructed again.
"Alright! I’ll wait for you outside the Demonic Beast Forest!"
Yan Hu nodded, no longer persisted, although he didn’t know why Jiang Chen was sending him away, he didn’t question, just needed to know Jiang Chen was safe.
Swish!
With a flicker, Yan Hu first leapt towards the forest.
Jiang Chen smiled lightly, flashed in another direction.
Swoosh!
Shortly after the two split up, Lin Zhong appeared at the spot where they separated.
Gazing in Yan Hu’s departing direction, Lin Zhong turned to look at the path Jiang Chen took, furrowing his brows:
"Why did they separate? Trying to let the servant divert me? Impossible, a Virtual Refinement initial stage and a Divine Infant Realm Peak, how could they detect my tracking."
Softly analyzing, Lin Zhong glanced behind him: "This place is still too close to the Gold-devouring Rats’ space. If killing him triggers fluctuations leading to their suspicion, they might guess it’s me. A bit further, and I’ll take this punk’s life!"
A cold glint flashed in Lin Zhong’s eyes, his form flickered, pursuing Jiang Chen’s direction.
