"How many of them are here?"
Jiang Chen continued asking.
"From the looks of it, there are at least two hundred of them, and at least five of them are Late Combat Soul warriors. It looks like they have guessed that you are going to attack the Black Sect, that's why they came prepared. However, there's one thing I don't understand. You've killed three Late Combat Soul warriors, so they should know how strong you are. Under such circumstances, it's really strange for the Imperial Emperor to just sit still."
Da Huang Dog said with a puzzled expression.
"It's not strange at all, because the Imperial Emperor doesn't even know I'm here."
Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face.
"Didn't you say the Seventh Emperor and Tenth Emperor's Soul Jade Slips would break? Why doesn't the Imperial Emperor know about it? "
Da Huang Dog was puzzled once again.
"It's simple, the Imperial Emperor is the supreme ruler of the Black Sect. Normally, with his Imperial Decree, there will be people who will handle it for him. Take the matter of imprisoning the Black Sect and attacking me as an example, with the Imperial Emperor's status, he won't do it himself. However, since the Seventh Emperor and Tenth Emperor are involved in this matter, that means there are more emperors and upper echelons of the Martial Saint Dynasty involved in this. Think about it, if they can't even handle such a small matter and have to ask the Imperial Emperor for help, it would be a huge loss of face for the person who accepted the Imperial Decree."
Jiang Chen was an intelligent man, and nothing could hide from his intelligence. He was able to find out everything just by looking at some clues.
"I understand now. Wu Lang said the person in charge of this matter is the Third Emperor. I'm sure the Seventh Emperor and Tenth Emperor's deaths were kept a secret by the Third Emperor. The army that came to the Black Sect yesterday must be the Third Emperor's men. Looks like they are fully prepared, and are just waiting for Little Chenzi."
Han Yan's eyes lit up as he said. After hearing Jiang Chen's explanation, everyone finally understood why the Imperial Emperor didn't show himself.
To put it bluntly, the Imperial Emperor was a mighty figure, and in his eyes, Jiang Chen was just a nobody. There was no need for the Imperial Emperor to personally deal with a nobody like Jiang Chen.
"None of those emperors of the Martial Saint Dynasty are easy to deal with. Each of them is more shrewd than the last. Since they still dared to come here despite knowing that I have the strength to kill them, it means that they are fully prepared and think that they can take me down. I really want to see what powerful tricks they have up their sleeves."
Jiang Chen sneered. Since the other party wanted to play, he would accompany them to the end. If someone wanted to die, he didn't mind being the Black and White Impermanence. The stronger the enemy, the more excited Jiang Chen was.
"When are you going to do it?"
Da Huang Dog asked.
"We'll make our move at daybreak."
Jiang Chen was startled. Now that his family, friends, and sect were all trapped, he had no time to waste. The battle with the Martial Saint Dynasty was unavoidable. Furthermore, with his current cultivation base, he had to break through during the battle with the Martial Saint Dynasty. If he only relied on his own cultivation base, he had no idea how long it would take for him to break through.
"Kaka, okay, let's kill him together."
Da Huang Dog was extremely excited.
"I'll do it alone. You guys can't come with me."
Jiang Chen said.
"Why is that?"
Jiang Chen was puzzled. Since the enemy was bigger than him, having one more helper was better than nothing.
"You guys have more important things to do. Wait until I'm done with the Third Emperor and the others, you guys will go save Zi Han and senior disciple Guan's family. They are currently being controlled by people from the Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect, and I'm sure all the Late Combat Soul warriors from these two superpowers are in the Black Sect. Also, they still have some great warriors guarding their headquarters. Therefore, the group that imprisoned Zi Han and his family won't be too strong. You guys can definitely save them."
With you guys, you can definitely save them. "Jiang Chen said. He had always been meticulous when doing things, and he always looked at the bigger picture. Especially when it came to saving people, not only did he have to do it quickly, he also had to ensure the safety of the hostages. With his appearance, he would be able to tie down all the strong warriors in the Black Sect, and it would be much easier for Han Yan and the others to save them.
Hearing what Jiang Chen said, Yu Zihan and the other two's eyes immediately lit up. They had been feeling restless for the past few days. Their family members were being held captive, and although they were worried, there was nothing they could do. If it weren't for the fact that they still had some sense left in them, they might have already risked their lives. Now that Jiang Chen had returned, they had finally found their backbone. Thinking about how they were going to save their family members soon, the three of them couldn't help but feel excited.
"You guys go now, and we'll strike once the sun rises."
Jiang Chen said.
Following Jiang Chen's order, the four men and the dog immediately left the place and flew toward the Yu family, which was the closest to them. Today was the day the Eastern Continent's turbulence would begin.
Time passed by quickly. When dawn arrived, Jiang Chen had arrived outside the Black Sect.
Right now, the Black Sect was heavily guarded, both inside and outside. There were more than a dozen Golden Guards standing guard in front of the Black Sect's main gate. The weakest among these Golden Guards was at the Late Divine Core realm, and there were three Combat Soul warriors. All of them were wearing golden armors that shone brightly, giving them an awe-inspiring appearance.
When they saw a young man dressed in white walking toward them from afar, the Golden Guards immediately greeted him.
"Stop right there! Who are you?!"
The leader of the group shouted out loudly.
"The Golden Guards of the Martial Saint Dynasty are indeed elites, what a pity!"
The young man in white shook his head and sighed. A pitiful look could be seen in his eyes.
"You, you're Jiang Chen?!"
The leader immediately reacted. He stared at the young man in white, and a name popped up in his mind. The way this young man dressed and looked exactly like the legendary Jiang Chen. Besides, apart from Jiang Chen, who else would dare intrude into the Black Sect at this moment?
"That's why I said it's a pity."
After saying that, Jiang Chen unleashed a sky-piercing killing intent from his body. He waved his hand, unleashing five gigantic dragons that danced in the air. In an instant, they dashed into the group of Golden Guards and completely surrounded all of them.
Roar!
Argh!!
The Flood Dragon's roar and the miserable screams of the Golden Guards mixed together, and in just the time of three breaths, all sounds came to an abrupt end. The dozen or so Golden Guards had been torn to pieces by the Flood Dragon's charge, and they'd been turned into bloody mist and mush.
Jiang Chen casually glanced at the scene, then with an indifferent tone, he said, "Anyone who dares to appear in the Black Sect today, none of them will be able to live."
The God of Slaughter had returned!
After killing the dozens of Golden Guards, Jiang Chen leapt into the air and arrived above the Black Sect. He didn't feel sorry for killing these Golden Guards, he knew how his enemies should be treated. The reason they were guarding the Black Sect was to deal with him, and also to imprison everyone in the Black Sect. As long as the higher-ups gave the order, they would become the executioners of the Black Sect. Therefore, there was no way Jiang Chen would show them any mercy. In his mind, anyone who dared to appear in the Black Sect at this moment deserved to die.
Jiang Chen hovered above the Black Sect. When he saw his statue being destroyed, he knew that this must be the work of the Shangguan Clan and Myriad Sword Sect. Jiang Chen hovered in the air without saying a word, he just unleashed his killing intent. The commotion caused by killing those Golden Guards was more than enough to alert anyone in the Black Sect.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Sure enough, right after Jiang Chen hovered in the air, numerous formidable figures dashed out from the Black Sect and stood opposite of Jiang Chen. The leading man wore a golden robe, and he looked to be in his fifties. He had an extraordinary bearing, and anyone could tell that he had a noble status. Jiang Chen knew this man was the Third Emperor of the Martial Saint Dynasty. They had met before in the Martial Saint Palace, and he had met most of these Late Combat Soul warriors.
"Jiang Chen, you're finally here!"
When the Third Emperor saw Jiang Chen, he said with a loud voice.
"Of course I have to show myself! Are you all satisfied with yesterday's gift? I'm going to use the same method to send your heads to the Martial Saint Dynasty as a gift to the Imperial Emperor. What do you all think?"
Jiang Chen said with an indifferent tone.
Within the Black Sect, since the Third Emperor and Jiang Chen's conversation was very loud, everyone could hear it clearly. Those disciples and elders who had lost all hope immediately had excited expressions on their faces.
"It's senior disciple Jiang Chen! He's back! This is great! We're saved!"
"Haha, there's nothing senior disciple Jiang Chen can't do! I knew he wouldn't leave us behind!"
"Let senior disciple Jiang Chen kill all of them, avenge our fallen brothers! Damn it!"
All the disciples of the Black Sect were extremely excited, but at the same time, they were filled with righteous indignation. During these past few days, many disciples of the Black Sect had been tortured to death, and it was a tragic scene.
Within a sealed secret chamber, Daoist Black and Guo Shan heard Jiang Chen's voice as well, and they were shocked as well.
"That guy is finally back!"
Daoist Black smiled.
"Of course, that's how he is. Besides, whenever he shows up, he'll definitely come back with a powerful aura. I have reason to believe that his methods will shock our enemies."
Guo Shan said with a smile on his face. All this while, Jiang Chen had shocked everyone, and in the minds of many people, he was an omnipotent man.
In the sky above the Black Sect, Jiang Chen was facing the massive army of the Martial Saint Dynasty by himself, and he didn't want to admit defeat.
"Jiang Chen, you've killed the Imperial Emperor, that's a crime that will get you nine generations of your family executed! I'm reminding you out of kindness, if you surrender now, you might be able to get a quick death!"
The Third Emperor said with a loud voice.
"What a joke! Didn't the Imperial Emperor just give out the Imperial Decree? But, I do want to see who will get their families executed! All outsiders who showed up in the Black Sect today will have to die, just like what happened to the Fragrant Sky City! I'm not joking! "
Jiang Chen said with an indifferent tone. He had a clear understanding of the enemy's army. There were a total of nine Late Combat Soul warriors, and it was indeed a powerful formation. However, if he wasn't prepared for it, even if there were nine more of them, he still wouldn't be able to kill them all.
"So you're Jiang Chen? You don't look like much."
The Crown Prince kept looking at Jiang Chen. He felt that he was stronger than this young man in every aspect, but Yan Chen Yu actually liked Jiang Chen and not him.
"You're the Crown Prince, right? A eunuch like you should keep your mouth shut."
Jiang Chen's words hit the Crown Prince's sore spot.
