"We are from the Jiede Clan. You can call me the Third Elder and this is the Fourth Elder." One of the elders said expressionlessly.
Jianchen continued to sit cross-legged on the bed as he clasped his hands and asked, "Elders, may I know why the two of you are looking for me?"
The Third Elder glared at Jianchen and sternly said, "Jianchen, let me ask you this. Did you kill our young master?"
"So what if I did?" Jianchen did not deny it as this matter was not up to him. The scene of him killing Jiede Wukang had been witnessed by many. Even if he did not admit it, the Jiede Clan could still ask Qin Ji and Tianmu Ling about the truth.
Hearing Jianchen's words, the two elders' eyes were filled with killing intent. The Third Elder growled, "How dare you kill our Jiede Clan's young master? Jianchen, which power do you belong to?"
Jianchen sneered, "I am alone. So what?"
Hearing this, the Third Elder and Fourth Elder looked at each other and sighed in relief. Previously, they were worried that Jianchen had a powerful backer that the Jiede Clan could not afford to offend. Now that they knew that Jianchen did not have any backing, the fear in their hearts disappeared. Although the two of them knew that Jianchen could be lying to them, they were more than happy to hear that.
"Jianchen, is young master Wukang's Cloud Breaker in your hands?" The Fourth Elder stared at Jianchen and asked.
"Cloud Breaker? Is that the Ruler Weapon in Jiede Wukang's hands? I never thought that this short sword would be called Cloud Breaker. Not a bad name. " Jianchen said with a chuckle. Although the two were peak Heaven Saint Masters, he did not show the slightest fear.
"The Cloudbreaker sword really is in your hands. Jian Chen, hand it over immediately if you know what's good for you, and I can leave your corpse intact." Killing intent immediately erupted from the third elder's eyes.
Jianchen rubbed the Space Ring in his hand and smiled, "Since I'm going to die anyway, why don't you just kill me and take this Space Ring? There is something you want in this Space Ring so I don't have to do it myself."
"Brat, how dare you! Do you really think this elder won't kill you?" The Third Elder's face was filled with killing intent.
"Come kill me if you dare.." Jianchen sneered. He was betting that the two elders would not dare to attack him in Mercenary City because he remembered the words of the Tianqin Clan's Great Elder. No matter what happened, he was not allowed to fight in Mercenary City. Otherwise, no one would pay attention to him.
"You …" The Third Elder was furious. He almost could not help but attack, but he held himself back in the end.
Seeing this, Jianchen could not help but smile. He had guessed correctly, the Jiede Clan really did not dare to attack him here.
"Looks like there is something in Mercenary City that even Heaven Saint Masters fear." Jianchen thought to himself.
The black-clothed Ming Dong heard the commotion and came to Jianchen's room. He glanced at the two elders and said, "Jianchen, what happened? Who are they?"
"They are from the Jiede Clan." Jianchen indifferently said.
Hearing this, Ming Dong immediately understood. He knew that Jianchen had killed Jiede Wukang and taken away his Ruler Weapon. Now that he heard that the two were from the Jiede Clan, Ming Dong immediately knew what they were here for.
"Jianchen, do you need help? Do you want me to call Uncle Tian out?" Ming Dong whispered to Jianchen.
Jian Chen shook his head, "There's no need. This is Mercenary City. They won't dare to touch me, or they would have done so long ago. There's no need for them to waste their breath on me."
Hearing this, Ming Dong was slightly surprised and suddenly said, "I almost forgot, we cannot fight here." Ming Dong then turned around and smiled at the two elders of the Jiede Family, "Seniors, you should leave. There is no point in staying here any longer. What I'm saying is true."
The two Elders of the Jiede Family were so angry that their noses were crooked. Their faces were extremely gloomy and their gazes were extremely sharp. However, they had nowhere to vent their anger because within Mercenary City, the two of them did not dare to make a move.
"Seniors, I was the one who killed Jiede Wukang and the Ruler Weapon is indeed in my hands. Alright, you know what you need to know, so you can leave." Jianchen did not give them any face and asked them to leave. The enmity between him and the Jiede Clan was destined to be irreconcilable.
Being ignored by two juniors, the two elders from the Jiede Clan were livid. If they were not in Mercenary City, the two of them would have already attacked Jianchen and Ming Dong. There was no need for them to endure such humiliation.
"Jianchen, you will regret this." The Fourth Elder gritted his teeth and said.
"Jianchen, hand over the Cloud Splitter Sword. Otherwise, no matter where you run, the Jiede Clan will hunt you down." The Third Elder did not give up and threatened.
Jianchen coldly snorted and pointed in the direction of the door, saying, "You two, you can leave now." Jianchen did not want to waste any more words with them.
The two elders from the Jiede Clan were extremely gloomy. The Third Elder opened his mouth again and said, "Jianchen, do you really want to completely offend the Jiede Clan?"
Jianchen did not move and did not listen.
The Fourth Elder said, "Jianchen, we will give you one last chance. Hand over the Cloud Splitter Sword and we will not make things difficult for you. Even if you leave Mercenary City, we will not take the initiative to make things difficult for you." The Fourth Elder knew that using force would not work on Jianchen, so he had no choice but to use a soft approach. The Ruler Weapon, Cloud Splitter Sword, was too important to the Jiede Clan and they had to successfully bring it back.
"You two, please leave." Jianchen's expression was somewhat impatient. Jiede Wukang's position in the Jiede Clan was definitely not low. He had killed Jiede Wukang and had already formed a grudge with the Jiede Clan. Only a fool would hand over the Ruler Weapon and increase the strength of the enemy to deal with him.
"You really don't want to hand over the Cloud Splitter Sword?" The Third Elder's knuckles cracked as the anger in his heart had already reached its limit.
This time, Jianchen simply closed his eyes and did not even bother to look at the two. These two elders of the Jiede Clan were very thick-skinned. Their master had already ordered them to leave and yet they still refused to leave.
Seeing Jianchen's resolute attitude, the Fourth Elder took a deep breath and slowly calmed himself down. At this point, he also knew that it was almost impossible for Jianchen to hand over the Ruler Weapon.
"Let's go!" The Fourth Elder shouted as he waved his sleeve and turned to leave with a belly full of anger.
The Third Elder stared at Jianchen with eyes full of resentment before leaving with a cold snort.
With a wave of his hand, Ming Dong closed the door with a gust of wind and sat down beside Jianchen. With a serious expression, he said, "Jianchen, what do you plan to do now? These two are peak Heaven Saint Masters and will not be easy to deal with."
Jian Chen did not mind at all. He smiled, "It's fine. They won't dare to do anything in Mercenary City, and we'll be participating in the finals soon. We'll be staying in Mercenary City for a while. If we want to leave, I have a way to avoid them."
Ming Dong took out a book from his Space Ring and handed it to Jianchen, "Jianchen, this was given to me by my Uncle Tian. It's a Heaven Tier Battle Skill for movement. I originally wanted to give this to you long ago but seeing how you've been studying the Heaven's Fortune Art, I didn't take it out because I didn't want to disturb you. But looking at the current situation, I have no choice but to give it to you. The sooner you learn it, the more likely you'll be able to survive when a Heaven Saint Master pursues you."
When he heard that it was a Heaven Tier Battle Skill, Jianchen's heart could not help but skip a beat. A Heaven Tier Battle Skill was something he did not even dare to think about before. Who would have thought that in just a few days, he would obtain three Heaven Tier Battle Skills.
