After fusing with the third part of the broken sword, the Heavenly Saint Sword's power had once again increased, and it had now become a King Weapon. Although it was still a Perfect-Ranked Combat Weapon due to Jiang Chen's cultivation, the power it could unleash was already comparable to a King Weapon.
With the help of the Heavenly Saint Sword, Jiang Chen's speed increased once again. He was in a hurry, so he used the Dimensional Shift, Nine Phantom Wolves, and all the other skills that could increase his speed. At this speed, it would take him four days at most to reach the Eastern Continent.
Eastern Continent, Mount Origin!
Two hours after Da Huang Dog left, he returned and met up with Yan Chen Yu.
"Da Huang, how is it?"
Yan Chen Yu asked.
"It's not looking good. All the men from the Yan family have been brought to the Fragrant Sky City, and they're being imprisoned together with the men from the Jiang family. Furthermore, they're being led by the Seventh Emperor and the Ninth Emperor, along with dozens of Golden Guards. With our strength, it's impossible for us to save them. Even if we manage to save them, they won't have anywhere to run to."
Da Huang Dog said. What he said was very reasonable. With their abilities, not only would they not be able to defeat the Seventh Emperor and the Ninth Emperor, even if they managed to save the men, where could they run to? Those men would only become Yan Chen Yu and Da Huang Dog's burdens.
"They're only dealing with the Jiang family and Yan family, yet they sent out such a powerful force. Looks like their target is Chen Gege."
Yan Chen Yu was not an idiot. She immediately understood what was going on. If they were just dealing with the Jiang family and Yan family, any Golden Guard would be able to wipe them out. But now, even the two emperors had come all the way here. It was obvious that they were here for Jiang Chen.
"Oh right, how are my father and father-in-law?"
Yan Chen Yu asked.
Hearing this, Da Huang Dog furrowed his brows. But in the end, he still said, "I don't think they're in a life-threatening situation, but it's not looking good either, because they've been brought to the Martial Saint Dynasty."
Needless to say, Da Huang Dog's ability to gather information was top-notch. In just two hours, he had managed to gather all the information he needed. Furthermore, he had done it right under the nose of two Late Combat Soul warriors. Just this ability alone was enough to make people admire him.
"What?"
Yan Chen Yu's expression changed. Jiang Zhenhai and Yan Zhanyun were imprisoned in the Martial Saint Dynasty. It seemed like the Martial Saint Dynasty was going to keep their last resort.
Although she was worried, Yan Chen Yu quickly calmed down. A cold light flashed in her eyes, and her expression was solemn, "I hope they are alright. It seems like we can only wait for Chen Gege to come back."
"Xiao Yu, how about this? You continue hiding here and keep an eye on the situation in Fragrant Sky City. I'll immediately fly to the Southern Continent. If I meet Jiang Chen, I'll tell him everything that happened here."
Da Huang Dog said.
"Alright, then be careful."
Yan Chen Yu nodded her head. The current situation was extremely critical, and only when Jiang Chen came back would they have a chance to turn the situation around. With their current strength, there was no way they could turn the situation around.
Big Yellow left the place and flew toward the direction of the Southern Continent. The situation here should be relatively stable for now, and before Jiang Chen showed up, those who were imprisoned shouldn't be in any danger.
Da Huang Dog's speed was extremely fast. On the other side, Jiang Chen was riding on the Heavenly Saint Sword, and his speed was even faster. Along the way, he unleashed his aura, scaring all the demon beasts who tried to block his way. None of them dared to stop him.
Two days later!
Jiang Chen, who was flying at high speed, suddenly saw a golden light flickering in front of him. The golden light was obviously a man, and when Jiang Chen saw the golden light, his eyes immediately lit up.
"Da Huang Dog!"
Jiang Chen was very familiar with Da Huang Dog, and he was able to identify it just from its body shape. Without hesitation, he sent out his Divine Sense to Da Huang Dog.
Da Huang Dog didn't notice Jiang Chen's presence at first, but after receiving Jiang Chen's Divine Sense, he immediately stopped flying and started flying toward Jiang Chen. Soon, the man and dog met up.
"Damn it, you're finally back!"
Seeing Jiang Chen again, Da Huang Dog was really excited, especially when he sensed that Jiang Chen had broken through to the Combat Soul realm. It gave him a ray of hope.
"Da Huang Dog, what happened?"
Jiang Chen's expression darkened. He knew Da Huang Dog too well. If not for something serious happening, this dog wouldn't have talked to him in such a serious tone, and he wouldn't have come all the way to the Southern Continent to look for him.
"Something big happened! After you left, the Martial Saint Dynasty's Crown Prince tried to violate Little Yu, and the Imperial Emperor decreed a marriage …"
Da Huang Dog kept talking, telling Jiang Chen everything that had happened, including the Imperial Emperor decreing a marriage, Wu Jiu tearing the Imperial Decree with his bare hands, Yan Chen Yu castrating the Crown Prince, and the Imperial Emperor's enraged decree that ordered the Crown Prince's entire family to be annihilated.
Boom!
As soon as Big Yellow finished his words, a surge of anger burst out from Jiang Chen's body. Both of his eyes shot out two beams of cold light that were almost three meters long. It was extremely frightening.
"Annihilate my entire family."
Jiang Chen said with an extremely cold voice, "My family, my friends, anyone related to me, even if they suffer a slight loss, I'll make the Imperial Emperor suffer my fury!"
Jiang Chen had made countless enemies, and no matter what methods his enemies used, he would take it head-on. Even if it was a bloody battle, he would still enjoy it. However, Jiang Chen hated it when others used the people close to him as a condition to threaten him, and this had undoubtedly offended Jiang Chen's reverse scale. The moment he received the news, the fate between Jiang Chen and the Martial Saint Dynasty had been decided.
"There are too many people involved in this, we better hurry back. The Imperial Emperor's purpose is to lure you out, and if you don't show yourself, I'm afraid they will take extreme measures."
Da Huang Dog worriedly said.
"Let's go."
Without saying another word, Jiang Chen increased his speed to the maximum. Even Da Huang Dog descended onto the Heavenly Saint Sword and flew toward the Eastern Continent. His heart was burning with anxiety right now. These days, he had been restless, and he had a feeling that something big was going to happen. However, he had never thought that something this big would happen. Those people who were imprisoned were all implicated because of him, and Jiang Chen couldn't let anything bad happen to anyone related to him. Jiang Zhenhai was his closest relative, and Jiang Chen couldn't afford to lose him.
"Imperial Emperor, you better pray that everyone is safe and sound."
Jiang Chen's eyes were cold. He was like a calm king who had just been completely enraged, the fury of a king.
With Jiang Chen and Da Huang Dog's current speed, it would take them at most two more days to reach the Eastern Continent. However, during this period of time, a new incident happened in the Eastern Continent.
It had been ten days since all those related to Jiang Chen were imprisoned, and the main character that they wanted to lure out, Jiang Chen, had yet to appear. Even Yan Chen Yu and the others had yet to show themselves. This situation had made the Martial Saint Dynasty extremely angry, and it had also caused them to lose a lot of face.
Just yesterday, news had spread out from the Fragrant Sky City. The Seventh Emperor and Tenth Emperor had started using ruthless methods, killing one person a day until Jiang Chen showed himself. Today, an important alchemist of the Jiang family was beheaded in public, and his head was hung on the city wall of the Fragrant Sky City.
At noon of the next day, there was only one day left before Jiang Chen's return. In the sky above the Fragrant Sky City, three Golden Guards were surrounding a young man wearing a guard uniform. The young man had a calm expression on his face, and there was no sign of fear on his face.
Below, many people in the Fragrant Sky City were watching the scene. All of them were gnashing their teeth as they stared at the sky. Yesterday, they had witnessed the beheading of an alchemist of the Jiang family, but all they could do was stand there and watch. For everyone in the Fragrant Sky City, the Jiang family had done them a great favor, and now, they were witnessing a member of the Jiang family being beheaded.
"This bunch of executioners, they will definitely get their retribution!"
"Damn it! Steward Jiang Cheng has helped me a lot in the past, and now he's going to be killed! I hate him so much!"
"Young master Jiang Cheng, please come back quickly!"
Many people were washing their faces with tears. Such a scene was too cruel.
The young man who was surrounded by three Golden Guards was none other than the current steward of the Jiang family, Jiang Cheng. He had a very important position in the Jiang family.
"I heard that you have a good relationship with Jiang Chen. Do you think Jiang Chen will show up to save you?"
One of the Golden Guards sneered at Jiang Cheng.
"Cut the crap. I, Jiang Cheng, am willing to die for the sake of young master."
Jiang Cheng was extremely tough. Once upon a time, he was also a coward. In fact, he was still a coward. But now, he was willing to die for the sake of his young master.
"You can be considered a real man. Since that's the case, let me send you on your way."
Another Golden Guard slowly pulled out a shining broadsword and placed it on Jiang Cheng's neck.
"What else do you have to say?"
The Golden Guard asked.
"Haha, I, Jiang Cheng, am not satisfied even with my death. Young master, I, Jiang Cheng, will still be your slave in my next life. Come, give your grandpa a quick death."
Jiang Cheng laughed out loud without any fear. Facing the cold blade, he did not even frown.
The Golden Guard shook his head. He exerted strength in his hand and was ready to cut down.
Jiang Cheng would definitely be beheaded.
Swoosh!
Right at this moment, an air-piercing sound came from the sky. A beam of cold light shot out from afar and collided with the blade.
Clang!
The three Golden Guards were shocked when they saw the broadsword being knocked away. They quickly looked into the distance and saw a young girl dressed in white who looked like a fairy flying towards them. Jiang Chen saw the girl as well, but he didn't feel happy at all. Instead, he was filled with fear. Without hesitation, he shouted out, "Young madam, don't come here, leave now!"
The girl was none other than Yan Chen Yu. She had been hiding in Origin Mountain all this time. After receiving the news of the murder in Fragrant Sky city, she could no longer sit still. Today, she had been hiding here. When she saw that the one who was killed was Jiang Cheng, she decided to make a move. She knew the relationship between Jiang Chen and Jiang Chen. Although they were master and servant, Jiang Cheng was loyal to Jiang Chen.
