He Zudao couldn't contain his anger when he saw Jiang Chen's clear and logical reasoning.
He had been injured by Honglu because of him. He had not fully recovered yet, but he did not expect that he would have to die before his own son.
This was because the culprit of all this was the person in front of him.
Therefore, when he found out that Jiang Chen was leaving the sect, he immediately followed him.
"Well then, I'll show you what true ability is today."
He had caused him to be injured and killed.
He would have to pay with his life.
Moreover, he was a veteran Connate Master. It was more than enough to deal with a beginner Connate Master.
"Roaring Flame Spear!"
As he spoke, He Zu Dao pulled out a long spear and stabbed it at himself.
The red baby on the spear looked like a ball of fire.
"Your son uses a sword, and you use a spear. Are you even father and son?"
Facing this spear, Jiang Chen did not move at all. He grabbed the spear with his bare hands.
"You're courting death."
The internal qi within He Zu Dao's body surged when he saw that Jiang Chen was being so bold.
The originally dull spear instantly turned fiery red.
"Is this all you've got?"
The hand holding the spear felt inexplicably numb.
Jiang Chen knew that He Zu Dao had used his inner Qi to shake the spear.
However, he was now in the form of a human and dragon. Although he only had 25% of his inner Qi, it was not a problem for him to grab the spear.
"Let go!"
The first time might have been an accident, but what about the second time?
He did not hold back at all. He even used the Roaring Flame Spear Technique.
However, not only did he not let go, but he was also completely fine.
He couldn't help but wonder if the injuries he received from Hong Lu were so severe that he still hadn't recovered from them.
He had opened two of the seven meridians. Although it was difficult to break through due to the limitations of his talent, he was still a veteran.
Even though he had only opened two meridians, the amount of inner Qi he had accumulated was astonishing.
"I don't see your ability, but you're quite good at ordering people around."
Seeing that the other party was anxious, Jiang Chen couldn't help but chuckle.
Since they were both at the Xiantian realm, it was easy to tell whether they were at the Xiantian realm or not.
Therefore, Jiang Chen was very calm right now.
There was nothing he could do about it. It wasn't that he was too strong. He Zu Dao was too weak.
Not to mention his Four Extremes Internal Qi, just by using the Dragon God Kung's Humanoid Dragon Body was enough to control him.
"Blazing Prairie."
He Zu Dao refused to give up. He held his spear with both hands and tried to fling Jiang Chen away.
Unfortunately, this movement was not like a person, but a mountain.
Even with the full force of the two channels of inner Qi in his body, the other party still did not move an inch.
"Flame Charge!"
Seeing that he couldn't hit Jiang Chen, He Zu Dao charged forward.
He Zu Dao was like a charging chariot on the battlefield.
"With such little strength, you should have stayed in Tiangang school for the rest of your life. You're just throwing your life away."
Shaking his head, Jiang Chen suddenly exerted his strength and lifted He Zu Dao up.
"Impossible. How is this possible?"
"Even if you've cultivated three bodies and are perfect, you've only just entered the Innate Stage."
"I've opened two channels. How can my strength be weaker than yours?"
He Zu Dao's eyes were filled with shock as he was lifted up.
Because of this, he didn't sense any signs of Jiang Chen using his Internal Qi.
He couldn't believe that the strength of his body could reach such a level.
He Zu Dao couldn't believe how terrifying it was.
"This is just the beginning."
Jiang Chen smiled strangely.
Then, he picked up He Zu Dao's Blazing Prairie Spear with one hand and smashed it against the ground with all his might.
Boom!
The ground trembled, and the surrounding trees shook crazily.
He Zu Dao was lying in a huge pit.
"Impossible. How is this possible?"
"You've just broken through to the Innate Stage. How can you have such terrifying strength?"
"Three hidden Qi. Unparalleled strength. Could the legends be true?"
He Zu Dao muttered to himself with blood dripping from his mouth.
He didn't have much talent and relied on luck to get to where he was today.
However, his son's talent was extraordinary. Coupled with the inheritance of the Tiangang Sword, he had too many ideas.
Unfortunately, Man proposes, God disposes. Just when he thought he could help his son clear all obstacles, he met Jiang Chen.
How long had it been? Not only had Wang Xian surpassed his son, but he had also surpassed him.
"You talk too much. Don't you know you won't live long if you keep talking like this?"
Jiang Chen didn't want to be entangled with He Zu Dao anymore. He released the full strength of his Human-Dragon Body.
Roar!
A dragon's roar erupted from Jiang Chen's body. He exerted strength in his hands and tore He Zu Dao's hands apart.
"Ah!"
He Zu Dao screamed as his body was flung away. The webbing between his thumb and forefinger was torn apart.
"It's over!"
When he saw He Zu Dao's body fall to the ground, Jiang Chen grabbed his spear and threw it at him.
Whoosh!
The spear was so fast that Jiang Chen could already see how He Zu Dao died.
In the nick of time, a black shadow blocked He Zu Dao's path.
The Red Infant Spear, which had been shot through the air, was caught by this hand.
"Senior, why are you here?"
When he saw this person, Jiang Chen's heart skipped a beat.
"You didn't even tell me you were leaving. You made me look for you!"
The Shadow Guard's words had a hidden meaning.
"The mission was completed. Senior, you came and went like a ghost. How was I supposed to find you?"
Jiang Chen's words had a double meaning. He was clearly telling the Shadow Guard that he didn't want to get involved anymore.
"That's true. It's my problem."
Jiang Chen seemed to be right. The Shadow Guard surprisingly nodded.
"Senior, are you here to see me off?"
It was rare for Jiang Chen to see such an attitude from the Shadow Guard, so he couldn't help but feel curious.
"Of course. I'm not just here to see you off. I'm here to give you a future."
The Shadow Guard casually stabbed the spear in his hand into the ground.
"Senior, let's not talk about the future first.
This man has tried to kill me time and time again. I hope you can hand him over to me. "
Future?
What future? He was just a Shadow Guard.
Jiang Chen didn't want to be a killing machine for the sect.
Not to mention the shady business he did every day, his life was like that of a rat's. It was too uncomfortable.
"Senior, I'm the deacon of the Tiangang school. This man has the ambition of a wolf and wants to kill me.
"If you help me, my Heavenly Dipper Sect will definitely not forget your kindness."
He Zu Dao looked as though he had found his savior when he saw this person. He started to plead.
"That's easy."
As he spoke, the Shadow Guard had already stabbed He Zu Dao in the chest with his spear.
"You?"
He Zu Dao looked at the Shadow Guard in shock.
"The Tiangang school doesn't need cowards, and we don't need trash like you."
The Shadow Guard glanced at He Zu Dao and clapped his hands nonchalantly.
"Thank you, Senior!"
Jiang Chen sighed in his heart, but he still expressed his gratitude.
"You don't have to thank me. What about my future? Do you want to consider it?"
The Shadow Guard didn't want to give up, so he suggested again.
"I'm used to being free, but I've failed to live up to your kindness."
Jiang Chen lowered his head and cupped his hands in front of his chest.
"That's a pity. But if you regret it, the Shadow Guard will always welcome you."
The Shadow Guard glanced at Jiang Chen. He didn't understand why Jiang Chen refused.
After all, he had completed the mission. His backer, which was his master, Hong Lu, would most likely pass away soon.
The Shadow Guard's olive branch was his best choice.
After all, Jiang Chen had no background and no one to rely on. If he wanted to cultivate well in the Tiangang school, the Shadow Guard was the perfect choice.
In the end, Jiang Chen still didn't agree. The Shadow Guard, who was dispirited, left.
"The Shadow Guard?"
Jiang Chen looked at the Shadow Guard's disappearing figure and muttered to himself.
Needless to say, the spirit-building fruit was poisonous.
However, even if Jiang Chen didn't say anything, Honglu would know.
Looking at it now, Hong Lu was the one who controlled the hidden guards in the Heavenly Dipper Sect's orthodoxy battle.
However, after Jiang Chen's investigation, he couldn't find out who the Shadow Guard listened to in the Tiangang school.
He only knew that there was a Shadow Guard organization in the Tiangang school. As for who it was, or even who controlled it, Jiang Chen couldn't find out with his identity.
Jiang Chen also wanted to ask Honglu, but when the words were about to come out of his mouth, Jiang Chen took them back.
It was better to avoid trouble.
Since it was a battle of orthodoxy, why not take a step back now?
After all, this was their orthodoxy, and it seemed that he didn't cultivate Honglu's martial arts at all.
And the only Four Extremes Cultivation Method that he had obtained was also from a secret realm.
Perhaps this was the reason why the Shadow Guard didn't make things difficult for Jiang Chen, and even wanted to recruit Jiang Chen into the Shadow Guard.
....
Qinghe County, Xu Mansion.
"Xu Jiazhu, don't worry. Isn't it just a bunch of bandits?"
The eldest of the three, Cheng Da Jiao, patted his chest and said confidently, "Leave it to me, the Three-headed Shark, and we'll destroy them in minutes."
"Xu Jiaotou was a half-step to Innate Stage, but he was still killed by the bandits."
Beside him, a monk with a shaved head sneered and said, "Speaking of which, how do you three brothers compare to Xu Jiaotou?"
"Xu Jiaotou is indeed a half-step to Innate Stage, but don't you know who we three brothers are?"
The eldest, Cheng Ji, said arrogantly, "As the saying goes, a random fist can kill an old master. Not only are the three of us young, but we also have a combination technique. Even a half-step to Innate Stage would have to avoid us."
"Isn't this bragging a little too shameless?!"
"When the Xu Family had Xu Jiaotou, they couldn't see the might of this Three-headed Shark."
"Now that Xu Jiaotou is dead, this Three-headed Shark is obviously here to snatch the spot."
"How interesting. What's the saying again … When the tiger is absent, the monkey becomes king."
“.....”
The surrounding people looked at the three brothers who had strange appearances and pointed at them.
The Three-headed Shark turned out to be the three brothers.
His appearance was incomparably ugly, but due to a stroke of fate, he obtained a cultivation technique.
With the help of an extraordinary person, his cultivation had been smooth sailing all the way.
They were also quite famous within a hundred miles radius of Qinghe County.
However, the three of them were very smart and didn't offend anyone. Even if they did, they would immediately hide in the mountains and rivers.
Even though the three of them had reached Body Tempering Stage Nine, they were still very careful.
However, they were used to hiding, and it was inevitable that they would get tired of it.
Hence, when they saw the Xu Family recruiting customers, their minds became active.
"Gossiping behind people's backs, what kind of heroic ability is that?"
"If you have the ability, come down. We won't kill you. Let's see who's better."
"If you don't dare, then stop chattering here. You're as annoying as a fly."
The three brothers spoke one after another. Their words were filled with disdain for the crowd, but more importantly, they were confident in their own strength.
However, no one here dared to offend these three.
After all, their strength was right there for all to see.
Not to mention that the three brothers were just over forty years old and had reached Body Tempering Stage Nine when their bodies were at their peak.
Furthermore, they cultivated a set of combined martial arts. If one of them couldn't win, then the three of them could.
Most importantly, the three of them were the ones who dared to hide and cultivate if they couldn't win. Only when their strength surpassed yours would they come out to ambush you.
"Three heroes with soaring heroism. I, Xu Jiaotou, am impressed."
"Come, come, have some tea, have some tea."
Seeing the awkward situation, Master Xu, as the host, immediately came out to ease the tension.
"Old Master, Old Master, good news, good news."
At this moment, the servant outside the door reported the good news.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Didn't you see my esteemed guests?"
Old Master Xu saw the whole thing, but he didn't come out to stop the Three-headed Shark.
There was no other way. The situation was stronger than the person.
The Xu family had really met a strong opponent.
Now that the strongest instructor of the Xu family was dead, they could only rely on the people in front of them to get through this crisis.
"Wait a moment. What did you just say?"
Master Xu first scolded, then asked as if he had just reacted.
"Old Master, the support from Young Miss's Tiangang school has arrived."
The servant didn't understand his master's thoughts and was already feeling wronged.
However, since his master asked again, he didn't dare to hide anything and hurriedly said it.
"Quick, come with me to welcome the guest."
Hearing that it was Young Miss's senior brother, Master Xu became even more excited and hurriedly stood up.
"Master Xu, there's no need to be so courteous. I've already come in."
With Jiang Chen's current abilities, not to mention Master Xu's voice, Jiang Chen could even hear the sound of a mosquito's wings clearly.
"You are?"
Seeing such a young Jiang Chen, the excitement in Old Master Xu's eyes was replaced with disappointment.
"I'm Xu Jiangnan's senior brother. I just happened to be passing by, so I came to see if there was anything I could help with."
How could Master Xu's eyes hide anything from Jiang Chen?
Jiang Chen didn't mind.
After all, it was on the way. Since Xu Jiangnan came to beg him, he would help if he could.
"Ah Fu, bring me some tea."
Although Master Xu was disappointed, he didn't dare to offend Jiang Chen.
After all, he was a Tiangang school disciple.
"There's no need to drink the tea. I still have things to do."
"I wonder if Xu Jiazhu is in trouble. I can help him a little."
Jiang Chen still had things to do at home. Naturally, he was in a hurry to go back.
"This???"
Seeing how young Jiang Chen was, Master Xu didn't want to offend him. He said, "Ah Fu, go to the accounts room and take out a thousand taels of silver to send Young Master Jiang on his way."
When the three-headed mermaid saw this scene, it was needless to say how displeased it was.
"This is a prestigious sect. Before he could even help, he swindled the money and left."
"He's just a kid who's still wet behind the ears. He's just taking advantage of his position to make money."
"That's right. We didn't even get to drink the tea and he already got a thousand taels of silver."
The three brothers looked at the shiny silver with their eyes about to pop out.
But they had been here for half a day. Not to mention silver, they didn't even get an official position.
This made them unhappy.
"Oh, you have a problem with me?"
Jiang Chen didn't even look at the silver in front of him. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the three of them.
