The Lee family had come here in an imposing manner, but they had left with their tails between their legs. This had shocked everyone in Fragrant Sky city, this was an unexpected ending. They had thought that there would be chaos, but in the end, nothing had happened.
"The Lee family actually left? It seems like there is a Heavenly Core warrior hidden in the Jiang family."
"Heavens, a Heavenly Core warrior! What a powerful existence! I never expected the Jiang family to have such a powerful warrior protecting them, no wonder even the Lee family retreated!"
"It's good that they have left. As long as the Jiang family is still standing, Fragrant Sky city will not be in chaos. I hope the Lee family won't come here again."
… …
The news spread quickly. Many people had witnessed the Lee family leaving, so it wasn't hard for them to know that there was a Heavenly Core warrior hidden in the Jiang family. Besides, many people who were close to the Mayor's mansion could feel the pressure on their souls.
Jiang Chen fainted for almost an hour before he woke up. He felt his head was dizzy, and his body felt weak.
Jiang Chen didn't get up. He immediately started circulating the Great Soul Derivation skill. After a few minutes, the headache started to subside, and he slowly sat up from his bed. He swallowed a Human Elixir and sat down with his legs crossed. He started circulating the Dragon Transformation skill and Great Soul Derivation skill at the same time, and started recovering.
Outside of Jiang Chen's courtyard, Jiang Zhen Hai, Zhou Bei Zhen and the other Qi Hai warriors were walking back and forth. They were waiting for Jiang Chen to come out, and at the same time, they wanted to see the Heavenly Core warrior.
They waited for an entire day. Even when the sun had set and it was evening, Jiang Chen still hadn't come out.
Inside his room, Jiang Chen suddenly opened his eyes. His hair was moving without any wind. Although his face was still pale, his condition was much better than before.
"The Dragon Transformation skill is indeed a powerful skill. It is full of energy and has a strong recovery ability. Too bad, the injury to my soul isn't something that can be healed so easily."
Jiang Chen took a deep breath. His other injuries could be healed easily, but the injury to his soul was no joke.
Right now, Jiang Chen's soul was in a weakened state. The backlash from the Great Soul Derivation skill was really terrifying.
"With my soul in such a state, it seems that I won't be able to concoct pills in the near future. I have to find a way to recover my soul as soon as possible."
Jiang Chen thought to himself. A person's soul was their source. If their source was damaged, the impact would be too great. Alchemy wouldn't be the only thing that would be affected. If their soul was weakened, it would cause them to be unable to concentrate. Their bodily functions would also gradually become sluggish, ultimately causing their cultivation to stagnate.
Although Jiang Chen's soul was constantly tempered by the Great Soul Derivation Technique, the damage he had suffered this time was too severe. It would be very difficult to recover just by relying on the Great Soul Derivation Technique. Right now, what he needed the most were spirit herbs and spirit essences that could nourish his soul.
However, the Heavenly Treasures and Elixirs were extremely precious. Not to mention, the rarest Heavenly Treasures could nourish the soul. So, it was simply impossible for a small city like Tian Xiang City to have them.
"Looks like I need to make a trip to Red city. First, I need to look for spirit herbs that can heal my soul, and second, I need to pay attention to the Lee family's movements."
Jiang Chen had decided on his next goal. He had to go to Red city. He had killed Lee Chang Hong, and with Lee San Yue's personality, he wouldn't let it go easily. When he returned to Red city, he would definitely keep checking on the Jiang family's situation. Once he found out that the Heavenly Core warrior was just a cover, the Jiang family would face a real disaster.
Jiang Chen wasn't a man who liked to be passive. He liked the feeling of having everything under his control.
He stood up and pushed open the door. Jiang Chen walked out from his room.
"Dad, Uncle Zhou, why are you all gathered here?"
Jiang Chen asked even though he already knew the answer.
When they saw Jiang Chen come out, everyone's eyes lit up. Many of them had embarrassed expressions on their faces. They had wrongly accused Jiang Chen, they thought Jiang Chen was hiding in his room because he was afraid. But now, it was because he was with a Heavenly Core warrior.
Their young master's confidence wasn't just for show. With a Heavenly Core warrior as his trump card, he was confident and not afraid of the Lee family.
"Chen 'er, when did a Heavenly Core warrior come to our family?"
Jiang Zhen Hai asked impatiently.
"Young master, when did you become friends with a Heavenly Core warrior? Even we didn't know about it."
Zhou Bei Zhen said.
"Dad, Uncle Zhou, this Heavenly Core warrior has a weird personality. He likes peace and quiet, and he doesn't like to be disturbed. That's why I didn't tell you about it."
Jiang Chen said casually.
"I see."
Everyone finally understood. They didn't doubt what Jiang Chen said. A real powerful warrior would have a temper, and it was normal for him to have a weird personality.
All powerful warriors liked peace and quiet. That's right, that must be it.
"Chen 'er, this powerful warrior has saved the lives of many people in our Jiang family. I want to meet this powerful warrior and thank him in person."
Jiang Zhen Hai said.
"Father, I've already said that this expert doesn't want to see anyone. In the entire City Lord's Mansion, he's only willing to see me. If I bring anyone else to see him, I'm afraid that this expert will get angry and just leave."
Jiang Chen spread his hands.
Hearing that the powerful warrior was going to leave, everyone panicked.
"Alright, I won't see him then. But, Chen 'er, you have to thank this powerful warrior. If there's anything he needs, just let me know. The Jiang family will try our best to satisfy him."
Jiang Zhen Hai quickly said. Now that they had completely broken off their relationship with the Lee family, the Jiang family was relying on this Heavenly Core warrior. If this powerful warrior left, and the Lee family came again, the Jiang family would have no choice but to wait for their death.
"Don't worry, dad. Oh right, where is Murong Tian?"
Jiang Chen's eyes turned cold. Murong Tian was the only survivor of the Murong family, and he was a Qi Hai warrior. He was a big threat, and he had to be killed. If someone like him escaped and attacked the Jiang family, it would be a huge loss for the Jiang family. This was also the reason why Jiang Chen asked Lee San Yue to keep Murong Tian here. He would never leave any loose ends.
"He's locked up, along with those two bastards, Yang Xiao and Chang Shan."
Zhou Bei Zhen said.
"Go, bring them here."
Jiang Chen said.
Zhou Bei Zhen and the fat and skinny old men responded and left.
Not long after, Zhou Bei Zhen and the other two old men brought Murong Tian and the other two over. Their faces were covered in blood, and their qi and blood were messy. Obviously, they had been beaten up a lot.
"Jiang Chen, you little bastard! You destroyed the Murong family! I won't let you go even if I turn into a ghost!"
Murong Tian roared when he saw Jiang Chen.
"Shut up!"
Zhou Bei Zhen slapped him across the face.
Jiang Chen's expression turned cold. He stretched out two fingers, and a bright red flame shot out from his fingertips. It looked like a longsword, and he swung it toward Murong Tian with lightning speed. The flame cut through Murong Tian's neck, causing blood to spray out like a fountain. Murong Tian's voice came to an abrupt stop, and his body slowly fell to the ground.
Although everyone on the scene had witnessed Jiang Chen's abilities before, they still couldn't help but feel terrified when they saw him kill Murong Tian so easily.
"Winner takes all. That's the rule."
Jiang Chen said Leng Leng. He did not look at Murong Tian's body again, but instead, he looked at Yang Xiao and Chang Shan.
Plop!
With just one look, the two of them knelt on the ground. Jiang Chen's power had completely shocked them.
"Young master, please spare our lives. We only did this because we couldn't think straight."
"Young master, please spare our lives. I, Chang Shan, am willing to serve you for the rest of my life."
The two of them kept kowtowing. For people like them who were afraid of death, this young man in front of them was like the God of Death.
"With slaves like you, I can't even sleep well."
Jiang Chen had a disgusted expression on his face. The reason why he didn't unleash his soul pressure earlier was because he wanted to see how loyal these people were. Jiang Chen was using Lee San Yue to cleanse the Jiang family.
Fragrant Sky City was just a small city. For the Jiang family, a Qi Hai warrior was very important. That's why he had to ensure the loyalty of these Qi Hai warriors.
"Kill them, disgusting!"
The skinny old man said in a vicious manner.
Right at this moment, Yang Xiao and Chang Shan felt like crying. They really wanted to slap themselves to death. Their current situation was just like the saying, if you don't seek death, you won't die.
Both of them were filled with regret. If they knew that there was a Heavenly Core warrior hiding in the Jiang family, they wouldn't have betrayed the Jiang family at the last minute. But now, they couldn't save their own lives, and the man who had made up his mind to die was still standing right in front of them.
"Sigh …"
Jiang Zhen Hai sighed. His face was filled with regret and pain. These two men had been with him for a long time, and Jiang Zhen Hai had always treated them like his brothers.
For a man, the most painful thing was to be betrayed and hurt by his brothers.
Jiang Zhen Hai shook his head. He didn't look at these two men again, he turned around and left. His back looked lonely.
"Young master, what should we do with these two men?"
Zhou Bei Zhen looked at Jiang Chen.
"Kill them."
After saying these three words, Jiang Chen turned around and followed Jiang Zhen Hai's footsteps. Two screams came from behind them.
Late at night, the moon was hanging high in the sky. On the rooftop of the Jiang family's courtyard, two men stood side by side. Both of them were looking at the full moon in the sky without saying a word.
These two men were Jiang Chen and his father. For Jiang Zhen Hai, too many things had happened during this period of time, especially the past two days. He felt like he was in a dream. He had never thought that he would experience such an exciting period in his life.
"When a man chooses to betray his family, he has to be prepared for the consequences."
Jiang Chen said with an indifferent tone.
"I know."
Jiang Zhen Hai smiled. What happened today was a big blow to him.
"Dad, I need to leave for a while."
Jiang Chen changed the topic.
"Leave?"
Jiang Zhen Hai was shocked at first. He then looked at Jiang Chen and asked, "Chen 'er, where are you going?"
"Dad, don't worry. I'm only going to leave for a while. With my abilities, are you still worried?"
Jiang Chen smiled.
"That's true. You've grown up. Your temperament is not as good as mine, and your strength has also surpassed mine. I know that this small Fragrant Sky city can't hold you back. It's good that you want to go out and gain some experience."
Jiang Zhen Hai said with a gratified expression on his face. With Jiang Chen's strength, he had nothing to worry about if he wanted to go out and train. Through the changes that had happened recently, Jiang Zhen Hai had realized that the person who could make his son suffer was not even born yet.
