As for going to the Devil Realm, Tyrant and Tan Lang didn't have any objections. They were now following Jiang Chen, which meant that Jiang Chen had become their backbone. Tyrant was a fearless man, and he was quite interested in the Devil Realm.
Furthermore, even if they returned to the Liang Province now, they wouldn't be able to cause any real damage to the Shura Temple. They might even be in mortal danger. After all, their cultivation base was still weak. At least, there was a huge gap between them and the four major powers of the Liang Province. None of them could be a match for a Combat Emperor.
Therefore, going to the Devil Realm now would not only bring them devil souls, it was also a chance for them to train themselves. Jiang Chen was confident that he could break through to the Fifth Grade Combat King realm. At that point of time, he would be able to kill an Eighth Grade Combat King with ease, and he would have the strength to fight a Ninth Grade Combat King.
As for the conspiracy of the Heavenly Tower, Jiang Chen and the other two didn't know about it. However, Jiang Chen didn't care. The Heavenly Tower wanted to frame him, so they would reap what they sowed. The one who would suffer in the end wouldn't be Jiang Chen.
The place where Jiang Chen and the other two stayed was an exquisite courtyard. It was very quiet. Judging from the surface, the Heavenly Tower's hospitality was pretty good.
Early the next morning, Liu Hong appeared at the entrance of the courtyard.
Creak!
Just as Liu Hong was about to knock on the door, the door opened automatically. Jiang Chen and the other two walked out from the courtyard.
"Did you three have a good rest yesterday?"
Liu Hong asked with a smile on his face.
"I feel refreshed. Not bad."
Jiang Chen said.
"Young master Jiang, everyone is here. Let's go now."
Liu Hong said.
"Are we going straight to the Devil Realm?"
Tyrant asked.
"Let's meet up with the disciples of Tianyi Gate first, then we'll go to the Devil Realm together."
Liu Hong said.
Under Liu Hong's lead, Jiang Chen and the other two arrived at a flat square at the top of the Heavenly Tower. Right now, there were many people standing on the square, at least twenty of them. These people were all wearing different outfits, and they weren't too old. The youngest was in his twenties, and the oldest was a middle-aged man in his thirties or forties. The only thing they had in common was the arrogance on their faces. They were all Combat Kings, and they had the right to be arrogant.
Jiang Chen gave them a quick glance. Among these people, the strongest one was a Fifth Grade Combat King, a very powerful cultivator. These people weren't disciples of the Heavenly Tower, they were here for a mission given by the Heavenly Tower. They were going to the Devil Realm to hunt devils and earn devil souls.
In fact, all the Combat Kings could go to the Devil Realm themselves to hunt devils, but they chose to accept the mission given by the Heavenly Tower, and travel together with the disciples of Tianyi Gate. Although they would have to sell the devil souls to the Heavenly Tower in the end, with the help of the Heavenly Tower's genius disciples, their safety would be much safer. The Devil Realm was a very dangerous place, where one could lose their life at any time. Therefore, no one dared to be careless.
Seeing the arrival of three more people, the others only glanced at Jiang Chen and the other two, then turned their attention away. Jiang Chen and Tyrant had concealed their auras, so no one could tell their real cultivation base. However, as they looked too young, they didn't seem to be very powerful. Therefore, they didn't take them seriously.
Not long after that, the Great Manager and the Second Manager flew over and landed in front of the square. With a warm smile on his face, the Great Manager said to the crowd, "Everyone, we're all here. I wish you all a safe return and a great amount of devil souls. Now, the Second Manager will bring you to meet up with the disciples of Tianyi Gate, and we will travel together to the Devil Realm. I believe with the protection of the disciples of Tianyi Gate, your safety won't be a problem."
After saying that, the Great Manager didn't forget to smile at Jiang Chen.
"Let's go."
The Second Manager, who had a scar on his face, looked more ferocious than the Great Manager. Regardless of his appearance or character, he was not as easy to accept as the Great Manager.
After saying that, the Second Manager leaped up into the sky. Over twenty Combat Kings flew up into the sky at the same time, chasing after the Second Manager. Jiang Chen, Tyrant, and Tan Lang exchanged glances, then they too followed the crowd.
Looking at Jiang Chen who was following the army, the corner of the great steward's mouth revealed a trace of a smile. Everything was under his control. Everything had been arranged by him.
With such a group of powerful Combat Kings, their speed was extremely fast. Under the lead of the Second Manager, it only took them about ten minutes to arrive at a mountain range. Right at this moment, there was another group of people standing on the mountain range in front of them. It was also a group of over twenty people, but the aura they emitted was much stronger than that of Jiang Chen's group. These twenty people were all wearing white clothes, and the word 'Tianyi' was embroidered on their chests. They were all disciples of Tianyi Gate, and all of them were powerful Combat Kings.
"This Tianyi Gate is much stronger than the Shura Temple."
Tan Lang couldn't help but say.
"Of course, Tianyi Gate is guarded by a Minor Saint, so it's not something that the Shura Temple can compare to. There are countless Combat Kings geniuses in the Tianyi Gate, and even Combat Emperors aren't rare either. This kind of training without any Combat Emperors is the most common."
Tyrant said. Tianyi Gate was a major power in the Western Region, while the Shura Temple was just one of the major powers in Xuanyu. The gap between them was like night and day.
In the group of Tianyi Gate, there was a man with a very strong body. He looked to be in his thirties, and his face was ferocious, giving people a feeling that he was inhumane. However, his cultivation base was very strong, and it wasn't any weaker than the Second Manager. He was also an Eighth Grade Combat King.
"Second Manager, are there only so many people?"
The young man asked.
"Yes, Qi Childe, everyone is here."
The Second Manager cupped his fists at the young man, showing a respectful expression. Although he was also an Eighth Grade Combat King, there was still a huge gap between him and a genius like Qi Childe. His status in Tianyi Gate was naturally lower than Qi Childe, just like how the Great Elder of the Shura Temple couldn't be compared to Xiao Nanfeng.
"Great, I never thought that the leader of this mission would be Qi Childe of Tianyi Gate. With him, an Eighth Grade Combat King, our safety won't be a problem."
"Of course, Qi Childe is a famous figure among the disciples of Tianyi Gate. He is very strong, and we are only going to the first level of the Devil Realm. As long as our luck isn't too bad, with Qi Childe's strength, he will be able to sweep through the first level."
"That's right. It's a wise decision for us to accept the mission from the Heavenly Tower. Following the geniuses of Tianyi Gate is much safer than traveling alone."
… …..
When they found out that the leader of this mission was a man like Qi Childe, a pleasantly surprised look emerged on everyone's face.
"Everyone, listen carefully. This time, you have to follow Qi Childe's orders. Qi Childe will guarantee your safety."
The Second Manager said to the crowd. After that, he cupped his fists at Qi Childe, then disappeared in a flash.
"All of you, stand at the back."
A Fifth Grade Combat King from Tianyi Gate waved his hand at the crowd. His words were filled with arrogance.
The crowd was used to this kind of arrogance, so they weren't angry at all. They automatically moved to the back of the disciples of Tianyi Gate. If the geniuses of Tianyi Gate weren't arrogant, it would be abnormal.
Qi Childe walked in the air and arrived in front of Jiang Chen. He smiled and said, "Your name is Jiang Chen?"
"That's right."
Jiang Chen nodded his head.
"The two stewards have specifically asked me to take good care of you."
Qi Childe said with his eyes narrowed. Only he himself knew what he meant.
"Then I'll have to trouble brother Qi."
A smile emerged on Jiang Chen's face.
"Damn it, who is this guy? I've never seen him before. How can he be given special care by Qi Childe?"
"He must be someone with connections. Didn't you hear that? The two stewards of Heavenly Tower specifically asked him to do that. "
… …..
Many people's faces were filled with jealousy and envy.
"Let's go!"
Young master Qi let out a loud shout, then he took the lead and flew forward. The disciples of the Heavenly Sect followed closely behind him, and those who came here for the mission also followed closely behind. None of them dared show any neglect. Jiang Chen and the other two were flying at the back of the group, and they didn't say anything.
"Little Chenzi, why do I get the feeling that this Qi Childe is hostile towards you?"
Tyrant said in a low voice. Although he looked like a carefree person, he was actually a very careful person. He could sense a trace of hostility from Qi Childe, and even a trace of killing intent.
"He better not provoke me."
A cold smile emerged on Jiang Chen's face. He had basically figured out the whole story. Ever since the two stewards showed greedy expressions when they saw the Nine Solar Holy Water yesterday, Jiang Chen didn't have a good impression of the Heavenly Tower. Now, it looked like the Heavenly Tower was trying to use this method to deal with him.
However, Jiang Chen wasn't afraid at all, and he didn't back off either. He was definitely going to the Devil Realm this time. If this Qi Childe didn't provoke him, it would be fine. But, if he did, he would definitely make him regret it.
The group continued flying in the void, wandering back and forth. After about half a day, they finally arrived at a desolate valley. It was a desolate and uninhabited place, and they could even sense a thick demonic energy.
"The Devil Realm is right in front of us. In a moment, I'll open up the spatial barrier of the first layer of the Devil Realm. Everyone, be extra careful after entering the Devil Realm."
Qi Childe said to the group.
Roar ~
Right at this moment, a spatial crack suddenly appeared in front of them. A devil with black scales all over its body dashed out from the crack. It was a First Grade Devil King!
However, this Devil King had a tragic ending. Right after it came out, it was killed by Qi Childe with a single slap, and its devil soul was taken out.
"This is the spatial node that connects to the Devil Realm. Due to the frequent attacks from the devil race, the spatial barrier here is very unstable. Devils will often crawl out from the crack, but those devils aren't very strong. They won't be able to cause any trouble, and will soon be eliminated by humans."
Tyrant explained.
