Chapter 69: Chapter 67: Crush Them All
’I can’t let him down!’
Jiang Jichen’s heart swelled with emotion when he heard those words.
In his memories, Jiang Ling’Er was an abandoned infant his grandfather had found and raised as his own daughter. She and Jiang Jichen shared no blood ties.
She was ten years his senior and had watched him grow up. As such, Jiang Ling’Er held an irreplaceable place in his heart. Even now, with his soul reborn, he could still feel the profound, bone-deep bond between them.
For Jiang Jichen, Jiang Ling’Er would stop at nothing—even if it meant sacrificing her own life!
’I’ll kill anyone who dares to hurt you. Huang Chuang, you old bastard... even if I have to unseal my Seven-colored Spiritual Power, I’ll destroy you!’
A pang shot through Jiang Jichen’s heart as he saw Jiang Ling’Er injured by Huang Chuang. His resolve to kill the man became absolute.
Right now, Jiang Ling’Er was still in grave danger. Jiang Jichen had to rescue her as quickly as possible. If he was too late, he feared she would truly meet a tragic end.
’If Jiang Ling’Er dies, I’ll make every single person here die with her!’
At that moment, Jiang Jichen’s face was a mask of ice, utterly ruthless. He charged toward Jiang Ling’Er’s position at top speed.
He was currently several thousand meters away from her, a distance he could cover in a dozen or so breaths at his top speed.
However, Jiang Jichen was blocked after covering only a thousand meters. He was, after all, the enemy of all sects; by rushing in so openly, he had been spotted by many.
"It’s the enemy of the sects, Jiang Jichen!"
"How dare he show his face here so brazenly?"
"Quick, cut him down!"
The disciples from the various sects were enraged to see Jiang Jichen. They felt he was completely looking down on them. He knew this place was teeming with experts from every sect, yet he still dared to be so audacious.
They roared in anger and charged at Jiang Jichen, intending to cut him down.
Jiang Jichen, worried for Jiang Ling’Er, was enraged to see these sect disciples blocking his path. His Killing Intent surged to the heavens.
He stared coldly at the sect disciples rushing to intercept him and roared, his voice thick with killing intent, "Block me, and you die!"
"He hasn’t even stepped into the Innate Realm, yet he dares to act so arrogantly. Such insolent ignorance! Kill him!"
Several Innate First Realm disciples from the Golden Snake Sect were the first to arrive, blocking Jiang Jichen’s path.
They had already gathered their power and were about to strike Jiang Jichen down.
However, Jiang Jichen showed no intention of stopping. Without slowing, he continued straight ahead.
Seeing that Jiang Jichen didn’t stop—that he didn’t even spare them a glance—the Golden Snake Sect disciples grew even angrier. Standing firm in his path, they unleashed all the power they had gathered.
BOOM!
Flesh flew and severed limbs scattered. The Innate First Realm disciples from the Golden Snake Sect were instantly obliterated by Jiang Jichen’s charge, utterly and completely dead. The scene was horrifically bloody and cruel, stunning all who witnessed it.
"This..."
For a moment, the world fell silent. All eyes were fixed on that single figure.
"Is that even human? He’s practically a Fierce Beast in human form!"
Some of the disciples who were about to charge forward felt a chill grip their hearts at the sight. They had watched the attacks of the Innate First Realm disciples from the Golden Snake Sect land on Jiang Jichen without leaving so much as a scratch. In turn, Jiang Jichen’s terrifyingly powerful body had simply rammed them to bloody pieces.
The disciples who were only at the Innate First Realm no longer dared to try and intercept him, letting Jiang Jichen continue on his way.
After another two thousand meters, Jiang Jichen spotted the adventurer who had previously vowed to kill him, Lan Ning. He was accompanied by two Spirit Cultivator powerhouses at the Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm.
"I said I would take your life in the Ice Dragon Valley. So you’re the enemy of all sects, Jiang Jichen. This just makes killing you all the more interesting."
The adventurer, Lan Ning, spoke with cold arrogance, passing a death sentence on Jiang Jichen with his words.
"Young Master Lan, this man killed a direct descendant of our Song Family. Let us take his life!"
Qingyi, one of the other two men, also spoke up, eager to be the one to execute Jiang Jichen.
"No need to fight over it. We’ll just attack together and blast him to bits!"
The last powerhouse at the Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm said with a cruel laugh.
And so, Lan Ning and the two Song Family powerhouses attacked simultaneously, unleashing a deadly barrage at Jiang Jichen.
But at that moment, a golden light erupted from Jiang Jichen’s entire body. His speed increased explosively, and he continued to charge forward, still showing no intention of stopping.
"What? He isn’t stopping, even when facing a combined attack from three Cultivators at the Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm? Does Jiang Jichen have a death wish?"
Witnessing this, the crowd cried out in alarm. The commotion even caught the attention of Jiang Ling’Er, Huang Chuang, and the others. They paused their attack on Jiang Ling’Er and turned to look.
"Eh? A Junior Cultivator who hasn’t even reached the Innate Realm dares to charge over here? Is he courting death?"
Murong Hai exclaimed in surprise.
However, no sooner had the words left his mouth than Jiang Jichen’s gold-wreathed body collided with the three Cultivators at the Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm.
BOOM!
The result once again stunned everyone. The attacks from the three Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm Cultivators struck Jiang Jichen, injuring him badly enough to draw blood, but the wounds weren’t fatal. Furthermore, their combined assault failed to slow him down in the slightest.
"This is bad! Retreat!"
Seeing that their attacks were useless and had failed to stop Jiang Jichen, the three cultivators’ faces fell, and they shouted in alarm.
However, it was clearly too late to retreat!
"I said: Block me, and you die!"
Jiang Jichen’s cold voice rang out once more, followed by a gruesome spray of flesh and blood. The three Cultivators at the Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm had been brutally smashed to pieces.
Of course, in smashing through their Second-level Spirit Spaces, Jiang Jichen himself was struck by a powerful backlash. Cracks finally appeared on his formidable physical body; he was severely injured.
But Jiang Jichen’s face was calm. He paid the injuries no mind, still charging forward at top speed.
Everyone was stunned by this scene. They could only see that advancing figure as a Fierce Beast in human form. Anyone who dared block his path would be smashed into mincemeat.
Jiang Ling’Er now saw Jiang Jichen as well. She was shocked, unable to believe her eyes. She never expected to see him here.
’Chen’Er? How can he be here?’
’And his Cultivation... how has it gotten so strong? Is his Qi Sea Spiritual Vein repaired?’
Jiang Ling’Er looked completely dumbfounded, frozen on the spot.
The few powerhouses at the Innate Fourth Realm were also stunned. They hadn’t expected Jiang Jichen to be so savage, plowing through every obstacle and turning all who stood in his way into bloody paste.
Hex Feng was with the Mountain Sect Elders, and he had been about to intercept Jiang Jichen. But when he saw the three Innate Second Realm Perfect Realm Spirit Cultivators get smashed to pieces, his legs began to tremble. He involuntarily took a step back, hiding behind one of the Mountain Sect Elders.
Seeing Hex Feng’s behavior, the Mountain Sect Elders couldn’t help but reveal their disappointment.
A short distance away, Jiang Jichen tore through the air, appearing before them in an instant.
"You little beast, don’t get arrogant! Let this old woman be the one to kill you!"
At that moment, however, an old crone flew over and was the first to block Jiang Jichen’s path.
The newcomer was Granny Liu, and trailing behind her were the older-generation powerhouses of the Jiang Family!
