Although Jiang Chen had promised to avenge Zhuang Fan, the current situation still made his scalp go numb. This was his second day in the Divine Continent, and he had just arrived in the Liang Province. Yet, he had offended all four major powers. With his cultivation base of a First Grade Combat King, he was not strong enough to fight any one of the four major powers, and he couldn't even fight the ordinary major powers in the Liang Province.
Judging from the current situation, he had no choice but to hide in the Chaotic Ocean for the time being.
Not long after that, the Chaotic Ocean was once again engulfed in a storm. Just as everyone had expected, the four major powers had sent out even stronger opponents. Even Sixth Grade Combat Kings had appeared, and their frightening auras filled the sky above the entire Chaotic Ocean. The experts of the four major powers were furious. They had ruled the Liang Province for a long time, but they had never received such a great provocation. A monk and a young man had killed so many geniuses of the four major powers in just one day, causing them to suffer a great loss.
This was something unimaginable in the past. Unfortunately, even after searching the entire Chaotic Ocean, they still couldn't find any trace of Jiang Chen and the monk. They had searched many places, including the deserted island, but not the Heavenhawk Island. Just as Jiang Chen had expected, the most dangerous place was also the safest place. The experts of the four major powers never thought that Jiang Chen and the monk would still be on the Heavenhawk Island.
The experts of the four major powers stayed in the Chaotic Ocean for two days, but they still couldn't find any news about Jiang Chen and the monk. In the end, they were forced to confirm that the monk and Jiang Chen had escaped from the Chaotic Ocean.
In fact, it was easy to understand why. After killing so many geniuses from the four major powers, if it was someone else, he or she would definitely choose to run away. Only an idiot would choose to stay.
"Hmph! Issue the order to kill them on sight! "
The Fifth Tycoon of the Shura Temple coldly harrumphed.
The experts of the four major powers were furious. In the Liang Province, no one had ever survived after killing the geniuses of the four major powers.
Inside the Tycoon Hall of the Shura Temple.
At this moment, there were more than twenty people gathered in the main hall. Most of them were young people, but there were a few old people with powerful cultivation bases. One look and anyone could tell that they were the elders of the Shura Temple, and they were of noble character and high prestige. The others were the grand protectors of the Shura Temple.
Sitting at the very top was a white-haired old man and a young man wearing a golden robe. This young man looked to be in his thirties and had a gentle and elegant appearance. He had an extraordinary bearing and held a folding fan in his hand, making him look like a scholar. Sitting beside him was a fat old man who looked to be in his sixties. He had a head full of white hair, but his cultivation was extremely powerful. It was not something an ordinary person could compare to.
The old man was one of the elders of the Shura Temple. His cultivation was not any weaker than the young man with the folding fan. However, from the way he looked at the young man, it was not difficult to tell that the one who was in charge of this temple was not the old man, but the young man who looked like a scholar.
This was because the young man had a very important status in the Shura Temple. He was the leader of the Thirteen Tycoons of the Shura Temple, Xiao Nanfeng.
At this moment, the faces of the people in the main hall were filled with anger, especially the Eighth Tycoon, Ling Yi. One of his arms was severed by Jiang Chen. Although he had recovered a lot from his injuries, it was impossible for his severed arm to regrow.
"That Jiang Chen and the monk must have left the Chaotic Ocean. I and the experts from the other three major powers have searched the entire Chaotic Ocean for the past two days, but we couldn't find any traces of them."
The Fifth Tycoon said angrily.
"Damn it! Our Shura Temple has never suffered such a huge loss before! Now, we're not just worried about the loss of our men, but also the reputation of the Shura Temple! We must capture that kid and the monk and tear them into pieces!"
Another Tycoon said with a stern expression.
"And that Heavenhawk Island Master."
The First Tycoon, Xiao Nanfeng Leng Leng, said. His eyes were gleaming with a cold light. As a matter of fact, he was feeling very gloomy in his heart. All this while, no one knew what he had done, because he had done everything cleanly, leaving no traces behind. He never expected that the Heavenhawk Island Master would suddenly appear. That Zhuang Fan actually survived because of his carelessness.
He was truly hateful. Now that Zhuang Fan had exposed his ugly side in front of so many people, it had seriously affected his reputation. This was something that Xiao Nanfeng couldn't tolerate.
"That Heavenhawk Island Master is truly a bastard! He actually made up such lies to slander the First Tycoon and our Shura Temple. I'm guessing that Heavenhawk Island Master is someone that the other three major powers purposely arranged to humiliate our Shura Temple."
Someone said.
"That's right, I think so too. We all know what kind of person the First Tycoon is. How could he possibly do something like this?"
"We must find him and kill all of them! We must let them know that offending our Shura Temple will not end well!"
… …..
Everyone was filled with righteous indignation. No matter what they were thinking in their hearts, they still had to say something to protect Xiao Nanfeng's reputation.
One should know that in the Shura Temple, Xiao Nanshan could be said to be second only to one person. All the trivial matters in the Shura Temple were basically decided by him alone. Even those highly respected elders had to curry favor with Xiao Nanfeng.
This was because in a major power like this, a person's status and cultivation would always be directly proportional. Xiao Nanfeng's respectable status wasn't for nothing. He was a Ninth Grade Combat King, just one step away from the Combat Emperor realm. With such an existence, no matter where he went, he could do whatever he wanted.
"I heard that the kid named Jiang Chen is related to one of our Shura Temple's core disciples?"
The white-haired elder said.
"That's right, it's Tan Lang. Two days ago, he went to the Chaotic Ocean to kill the Lord of Heavenhawk Island. That young man named Jiang Chen was with Tan Lang, and he even helped us in dealing with the six Pirate Lords of the Chaotic Ocean. However, after he heard the lies of the chief editor of the Heavenhawk Island, he released the Lord of Heavenhawk Island. After that, he helped Tyrant, and became the enemy of our Shura Temple.
Now, Tan Lang is under my control. "Ling Yi said. Feeling the pain from his broken arm, he was furious. Since he couldn't find Jiang Chen, he naturally vented his anger on Tan Lang.
"Bring Tan Lang here!"
The white-haired elder said loudly.
The Eighth Tycoon, Ling Yi, made a grabbing motion in the air, tearing a crack in space. A figure was pulled out from the crack.
Plop!
Ling Yi casually tossed the figure to the ground. The force of the toss was quite strong, and the figure's body was slightly twisted when he fell to the ground. There were three scars on his face, and they were still bleeding. It was obvious that he had suffered a lot of beatings. However, he didn't make a single sound.
"Tan Lang, let me ask you, what's your relationship with that Jiang Chen?"
The elder asked.
"He's my friend. He saved my life before."
Tan Lang Leng Leng said. His gaze swept across the group of people. Every single one of them was once his idol, the height he dreamt of reaching. But now, he was filled with disgust and disappointment.
For the past two days, he had been tortured and beaten by Ling Yi, and Ling Yi had vented all his resentment on him. Not only was Tan Lang disappointed, he was also sad. No matter what, he was a disciple of Shura Temple, and it could be said that Shura Temple had treated this place as his own home. Yet now, he was being treated like this.
Moreover, from Tan Lang's point of view, Jiang Chen wasn't the one to be blamed for this matter. Jiang Chen had been standing on Shura Temple's side since the beginning, and he had gone to the Chaotic Ocean to help Tan Lang compete for the position of one of the Thirteen Tycoons. It was because of what Xiao Nanfeng did to Zhuang Fan that Jiang Chen was enraged, causing Jiang Chen to feel disgust toward Shura Temple.
However, Jiang Chen had indeed killed six Pirate Lords of the Chaotic Ocean and saved the majority of Shura Temple's people. But now, these Tycoons and elders had completely ignored this fact. What disgusted Tan Lang even more was that they couldn't find Jiang Chen, yet they were venting their anger on him, a disciple of Shura Temple. Did they ever treat him as one of their own?
"Elder Liu, there's no need to ask any more questions. I've asked everything I wanted to ask, and he won't say anything."
Ling Yi said.
"Elder Liu, Great Tycoon, as a disciple of the Asura Palace, I'd like to give you a piece of advice; let's just forget about this matter. Don't become Jiang Chen's enemy, it won't do us any good."
Tan Lang said. His words were indeed for the sake of Shura Temple. After returning from the Southern Continent, he had gained a better understanding of Jiang Chen. Although Jiang Chen's cultivation base was still weak, it was still not a good thing to make an enemy of a man like him.
During the past two days, Ling Yi had asked about Jiang Chen's background more than once. Of course, Tan Lang wouldn't tell him about Jiang Chen's background. As for the other things, Tan Lang wanted to tell him, but he had no idea.
"Bastard! As a disciple of Shura Temple, how could you collude with an outsider? Not only that, you're also destroying our own morale! That guy is only a First Grade Combat King! What makes him think that he can fight with Shura Temple?!"
The Tycoon who was the closest to Tan Lang shouted out. He raised his leg and kicked Tan Lang, causing Tan Lang to cough up a mouthful of blood.
Cough, cough...
Tan Lang kept coughing. He didn't care about the pain on his body, but the sadness in his heart couldn't be described with words. This was the sect he belonged to, and these people in front of him were the people he used to admire.
This was too f * cking sad.
"Hmph! In my opinion, we should use Tan Lang as bait to force that Jiang Chen to show himself. "
One of them coldly harrumphed and said.
"Haha, don't waste your time. I don't know Jiang Chen at all, so he won't show himself for me. You won't be able to find him."
Tan Lang burst into laughter. At this point, he had already disregarded life and death. Jiang Chen had once saved his life, and now, it was time for him to return the favor.
Furthermore, in Tan Lang's opinion, Jiang Chen really didn't have any weight in his heart. So, why would Jiang Chen show himself for him when he knew that he was being forced to do so? That was no different than courting death.
