That was when footsteps could be heard outside the door.
It was Cheng Dongfeng.
Before he came in, the sound of cursing could be heard.
"Trash!"
"You're just a rank-two. What are you doing here?"
"Do you think he would have escaped if I didn't save you?"
Su Ze's aggrieved voice could be heard as well. "Didn't you tell me to stop him, martial uncle? Why are you blaming me now? "
Both men pushed the door open and entered one after the other.
Cheng Dongfeng's mouth twitched when he turned toward Jiang He, and he suddenly laughed out loud. "You're here too, Brother Jiang He? It's been a while. Why do you look even more handsome now? "
Jiang He smiled faintly and offered a fist-palm salute. "Grandmaster Cheng."
As he spoke, he glanced at Su Ze.
Su Ze shuddered and lowered his head, not daring to look at Jiang He as he said, "Uncle, Chief Duan, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do. I'll be going."
With that, he promptly slipped away.
He was afraid that Cheng Dongfeng would beat him up to vent his anger if he stayed.
Duan Tianhe was not aware of what was going on, and did not think much even though he could tell that there was something off about their tone. "What's the situation at East Tower Town, Old Cheng? What are the specific casualties? "
Cheng Dongfeng's body was stained with Feral blood, and his expression was somber as he gritted his teeth. "There were hundreds of casualties when I got there. The Ferals attacking East Tower Town were split into three groups, and there were a total of 39 of them, the strongest of which was a rank-four Feral. All of them were killed."
"Those Ferals were controlled by the Sky Demon Cultists, and I found one of them. He's a wind-type Awakened, and although he's not powerful, he's very fast, and he managed to escape."
Duan Tianhe drummed his desk with a dark look on his face.
"By the way, I heard you mention something about the Decan Decree and Killer Star?"
Cheng Dongfeng appeared somber as he said somberly, "The Sky Demon Cult has mobilized rank-eights? You and I wouldn't be able to stop them if they really did. We must call for help right away. "
Duan Tianhe chuckled bitterly. "Don't rush. Let's wait and see."
"Don't rush?"
Cheng Dongfeng said angrily, "Old Duan, are you out of your mind?"
"The seventy-two Heavenly Generals of the Sky Demon Cult are rank-seven or rank-seven Awakened, while the thirty-six Decans of the Sky Demon Cult are rank-eight or rank-eight Awakened. Are you and I going to stop them with hammers if they really attack Lingzhou City?"
Duan Tianhe waved his hand.
Shua!
The Tiangang Token in his hand flew towards Cheng Dongfeng.
Cheng Dongfeng stretched out his hand and made a grabbing motion. Glancing at the token in his hand, his expression changed slightly. "Tiangang Token … Wait!"
In the next moment, he recovered from his shock and cried out involuntarily. "Brother Duan, where did you get the Tiangang Token? Kill … Venerable Killer Earth's token? "
Halfway through his words, Cheng Dongfeng suddenly remembered something and turned his head stiffly towards Jiang He, his face full of confusion and disbelief.
Jiang He flashed an elegant and polite smile.
Holy shit!
Holy shit!
What the f * ck!
Cheng Dongfeng jumped up and cried out in alarm, "You killed a rank eight Exalted?"
Jiang He was a little speechless.
Was there a need to be so exaggerated?
Wasn't that a little too exaggerated?
Nonetheless, he nodded.
Cheng Dongfeng suddenly quietened down. He stretched out his hand and pinched his thigh hard a few times, causing himself to howl in pain. Only then did he smile bitterly. "So it really wasn't a dream … but I still can't believe that a Rank-5 advanced could actually kill a Rank-8 martial artist."
Jiang He nodded in agreement and sighed. "Rank-eight martial artists are definitely powerful. Killer Earth cultivates a palm technique called the Stone-Breaking Palm of the Herculean Diamond, and its palm force is extremely penetrative. When I went to help Li Fei, he hid behind a bull's rump and ambushed me, almost killing me with a single palm strike."
"That's right, that's right!"
Li Fei danced in joy, spittle flying everywhere. "That sneaky old man must have come for Jiang He, and he was sent flying with a whoosh before I could scream."
"He vomited three liters of blood, and his chest caved in."
Li Fei was about to gesture Jiang He's chest with his hand, but stopped when he saw the look in Jiang He's eyes.
Both Duan Tianhe and Cheng Dongfeng were left gaping, feeling as if their heads were going blank and ringing incessantly.
A rank-eight martial artist had struck first, maimed Jiang He with an ambush, and was killed instead?
"No!"
Cheng Dongfeng glared fiercely at Li Fei, barking, "You look like a dog, but why are you lying through your teeth? You said that Jiang He was beaten half to death … but isn't he perfectly fine? "
"You …"
Li Fei tried to defend himself, only to find that Cheng Dongfeng had a point.
Puzzled, he asked, "Old Jiang, I forgot to ask just now. Weren't you almost dead before? How are you so lively now that you couldn't even stand up? By the way, didn't you knock me out with a kick? "
Jiang He replied impassively, "You must have remembered wrongly."
"I kicked you?"
"Did I kick you?"
"Why would I kick you?"
Li Fei's mouth hung open, feeling a little confused as he muttered, "You didn't?"
'Did I?
'I remember that you were the one who kicked me …' Still, Li Fei was a little unsure when he saw Jiang He's expression. Rubbing his temples, he blankly said, "Could it be that I was being intimidated by Killer Star's aura, causing my nerves to be pressured and causing me to hallucinate?"
Still, Jiang He held back his laughter.
'What do you mean by' brain nerves'? You must be out of your mind! '
Beside him, Cheng Dongfeng's lips curled into a chuckle.
Though he was not there, he was a hundred percent sure that Jiang He had kicked Killer Star.
Still, it had nothing to do with him whether he kicked or not.
On the other hand, Duan Tianhe frowned and asked, "Are you hurt, Jiang He?"
"I'm fine. I've fully recovered."
Jiang He smiled. "It's just a small injury. I wouldn't have been able to kill Killer Star if it was too serious."
Nonetheless, Duan Tianhe did not pursue the matter. After musing to himself for a while, he spoke seriously, "Killer Star is lurking at Li Fei's farm, clearly confident that you would come to his aid. It seems that the Sky Demon Cult has gotten hold of your information and know that you live in Jinyintan Village."
"This time, the Sky Demon Cult has already sent Ferals to attack a village near Lingzhou City, even mobilizing a rank-eight grandmaster. I'm afraid their next assault would be even more ferocious."
He turned towards Jiang He and said, "News of you killing Killer Star would soon reach the Sky Demon Cult. Having lost dozens of elite cultists, two Fiends, and one Decans, they would probably send even more forces to deal with you!"
Jiang He's face dropped.
Duan Tianhe was about to say something when he heard Jiang He seething, "Damn it! Do the Sky Demon Cult think that I'm easy to bully? It seems that I have to improve my ability as soon as possible to handle the coming danger! "
He turned and headed outside without looking back. "Chief Duan, Grandmaster Cheng, goodbye. I'm going home to cultivate!"
"…"
Behind him.
Duan Tianhe's mouth hung open, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
I was trying to convince you to send you to the Martial Arts Department (MAD) headquarters!
