Chapter 393: Chapter 391: Only a Fool Would Fight You Bare-Handed
Canglang, ninth on the list of young masters, was incredibly strong.
It was said he possessed a sliver of Wolf God Divine Blood, making him ferocious, cold-blooded, and terrifying!
Anyone who challenged him, or whom he challenged, was crippled without exception.
He exuded a bestial, blood-soaked aura. Others would give him a wide berth, their hearts filled with fear at the mere sight of him.
But in this moment, he had watched as Jiang Jichen, with a mere flick of his hand, made all his subordinates’ heads explode.
Brain matter splattered, blood sprayed everywhere, and bone fragments flew through the air... The scene was gruesome to the extreme.
But none of this fazed Canglang in the slightest.
Even if every last one of his men died, he wouldn’t feel a shred of pity or regret.
He would only think them weak, useless trash who should have died long ago!
What truly moved him was Jiang Jichen’s power!
He had followed Chang Xian’Er’s orders, tailing the three elders of the Five Poison Sect, thinking he could be the proverbial oriole stalking the mantis.
Canglang trusted Chang Xian’Er implicitly!
And he was merely one of Chang Xian’Er’s attendants.
This was a fact unknown to the world.
Otherwise, it would undoubtedly cause a huge uproar, forcing everyone to re-evaluate and reassess Chang Xian’Er’s true background and strength.
Only Canglang had a slight inkling of the terrifying power and resources Chang Xian’Er had behind her.
After all, he, the ninth-ranked master on the young masters list, was nothing more than one of her attendants.
He had been observing from the shadows just now and had seen that Jiang Jichen was severely wounded, unsteady on his feet, and bereft of combat strength.
Otherwise, even someone as ferocious as Canglang, having witnessed Jiang Jichen’s terrifying power in annihilating the three elders of the Five Poison Sect, would never have dared to show himself.
But now, he realized that Jiang Jichen had been bluffing.
He had deliberately pretended to be grievously injured to lure them into his trap.
What a brilliant scheme to lure the snake out of its hole!
What deep cunning!
A chill crept into Canglang’s heart.
Moreover, he had clearly seen Jiang Jichen fight and get injured, yet now he was acting as if nothing had happened. In fact... he seemed even stronger!
His body, which had previously looked so mangled it seemed to be rotting away, was now shedding its old skin as new flesh grew in its place.
It had a faint, treasured glow, and he could feel the boundless, terrifying power contained within the muscles beneath.
’He possesses High-Level Mysterious Material and has finished refining it. No wonder...’
Sensing the aura of the High-Level Mysterious Material, Canglang understood.
But now, not only did he feel a chill, but a great terror also began to bloom within him.
However, Jiang Jichen was already charging, his Holy Sword in hand, moving with ferocious intent.
"ROAR!"
Sensing a life-or-death crisis, Canglang no longer hesitated and immediately activated his sliver of Wolf God Divine Blood.
He began to transform. Wolf fur sprouted, muscles writhed, and he grew taller and more powerful.
His aura changed along with him, and an eerie, wolfish light gleamed in his eyes.
"I will tear you to shreds! The one who will die... is you!"
Canglang roared, and instead of retreating, he advanced, launching a fierce assault.
A massive Wolf Fang Club appeared in his hand. He swung it with all his might, smashing it toward Jiang Jichen from afar.
In an instant, a wild wind surged, and the phantom of a giant wolf emerged from the Wolf Fang Club, pouncing toward Jiang Jichen with bared fangs and brandished claws.
It looked as if it could tear the very heavens and earth asunder!
Wolf God Sky-Render!
This was a terrifying ancient technique.
Having awakened a sliver of Wolf God Divine Blood, Canglang had managed to master this Ancient Fragment Technique.
Previously, faced with such a terrifying attack, Jiang Jichen would have temporarily avoided its edge.
But now, there was no need!
Aside from his weakened soul, his body was in peak condition.
The High-Level Mysterious Material, while unable to cause a complete evolution or metamorphosis, could still make him stronger.
He gripped the Holy Sword, and the power of the Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm erupted within him.
Then, facing his opponent, he unleashed a Sword Technique.
True Dragon Incarnation, my inherent ferocity!
With Half-Form True Dragon Intent, all things turn to nothing!
From the Ancient Wandering Dragon Holy Sword, a True Dragon coiled and shot forth, colliding with the Wolf God phantom.
"BOOM!"
In the void, the divine dragon whipped its tail in a clean sweep.
There was virtually no suspense. The Wolf God phantom was obliterated, and with a roar of unwillingness, it vanished into the Void, becoming nothing.
"CLANG!"
Finally, the massive Wolf Fang Club clashed with the Ancient Wandering Dragon Holy Sword, only to be sliced in two.
The Wolf Fang Club was extraordinary, but it was no match for an Ancient Holy Sword.
Canglang was terrified and enraged!
"Jiang Jichen, you’re just relying on your weapon! Otherwise, you’d be no match for me!"
"I, Canglang, refuse to accept this!"
"If you have any guts, fight me bare-handed to the death! You..."
Canglang screamed, his voice filled with indignation.
Jiang Jichen’s expression was cold and unmoved as he swung the Holy Sword once more.
The One Sword Life and Death Technique coalesced into an Ultimate Killing Sword Light that tore through the void and slashed across Canglang’s body.
"PFFT!"
Instantly, Canglang’s powerful, transformed body was sliced in two at the waist, and his voice died abruptly.
But with his sliver of Wolf God Divine Blood, his Life Force was truly potent.
Even severed in two, he did not die immediately.
His eyes remained wide open, staring at Jiang Jichen with resentment and fury.
Jiang Jichen said coolly, "Why wouldn’t I use my Holy Sword? Only a fucking idiot would fight you bare-handed!"
Hearing Jiang Jichen’s words, Canglang’s severed body convulsed, and the last wisp of his life faded. He was dead.
His eyes, however, remained wide open, unable to rest in peace.
After killing Canglang, the Killing Intent in Jiang Jichen’s heart had yet to subside.
It was aimed at Chang Xian’Er!
’Again and again... Chang Xian’Er, you mistake a sleeping tiger for a sickly cat!’
’Now, I’m coming to... kill you!’
Before that, however, Jiang Jichen didn’t forget to collect everyone’s Storage Bag.
He swept the area clean, not leaving a single one behind!
"Suu Luo, come with me to kill that Scorpion Beauty!"
After collecting his spoils, Jiang Jichen radiated Killing Intent. With his Holy Sword unsheathed, he strode out of the valley, speaking to Suu Luo behind him.
"Okay! Suu Luo is angry too! That woman is despicable! How dare she scheme against Suu Luo’s Brother Jichen! Despicable!"
Suu Luo followed, huffing angrily behind him.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Jichen, who had been radiating a murderous aura and an imposing presence, nearly stumbled.
’Suu Luo’s Brother Jichen?’
’What the hell?’
’Since when was I *your* Brother Jichen?’
Jiang Jichen was speechless!
When the two of them focused on traveling, their speed was absolutely astonishing.
They crossed endless wildernesses and towering ancient peaks, venturing deep into the mountains behind the Academy.
As for Chang Xian’Er’s whereabouts?
Jiang Jichen had already learned her location from Canglang.
She was after the Half-Immortal Treasure!
And where was the Half-Immortal Treasure?
It might have been a secret before, but now that everyone was fighting over it, there were probably few who didn’t know.
What’s more, Qing Xun had finally sent news. She was at the very place where the Half-Immortal Treasure was being contested.
At the same time, she had activated a Positioning Talisman, allowing Jiang Jichen to easily sense her location from a thousand li away.
"Is Chang Xian’Er there?"
At the end of the call, Jiang Jichen suddenly asked Qing Xun through the Sound Transmission Jade.
"Mhm, of course she is. Word is, everything is going according to her plan. The Half-Immortal Treasure will most likely fall into her hands."
"Why are you looking for her?"
Qing Xun asked through the Sound Transmission Jade, sounding a little puzzled.
"Kill her."
Jiang Jichen simply spoke those two words coolly, then ended the call on the Sound Transmission Jade and sped off with Suu Luo toward the location of the Half-Immortal Treasure.
