Chapter 696 - Interception
If Jiang Yao learned of Jiang Chen’s current thoughts, he would know then how stupid were his own.
He felt that it wasn’t worth for him to take down Jiang Chen with him, while Jiang Chen didn’t care about him in the first place.
After around ten minutes passed, a flying ship passed through the light screen, and came over.
“Jiang Chen, I’m here!” Ji Yinyi stood on the deck, and waved her hand at him, as she shouted.
Jiang Chen let go of him, and started flying toward the flying ship before Jiang Yao’s gaze, which was filled with disbelief.
“How can he discern the right direction?”
Jiang Yao couldn’t understand it, but he still instantly reached out with his hand, and held Jiang Chen’s ankle.
“You can be at ease,” Jiang Chen replied bluntly. If Ji Yinyi didn’t cooperate with him, Jiang Yao wouldn’t have then ended up dead.
Ji Yinyi took the greatest risk she faced in her life for him, and what she sought from it wasn’t a melodramatic romantic feeling, but just Jiang Chen’s skill in alchemy.
“I still want to know why you are hunted by the Jiang Family,” Ji Yinyi said.
“Sometimes, knowing too much won’t be good to you.” Jiang Chen wasn’t guarding against her, but he just feared to bring troubles to her.
“I don’t want to die while oblivious to everything,” Ji Yinyi said.
“Okay!
Jiang Chen took the Heavenly Fault Sword from his Storage Spiritual Artifact, and said, “Do you recognize this sword?”
Confusion appeared on Ji Yinyi’s face after she took several glances at it.
Jiang Chen unsheathed the Heavenly Fault Sword upon witnessing it.
Shook appeared immediately on Ji Yinyi”s face, but it was just due to her intuition as a swordswoman, and she still didn’t know this sword”s origin.
“It’s the Ancient Sword!” Jiang Chen reminded her.
“Is it the Ancient Sword, which has the greatest possibility for becoming a Doctrine Artifact? Wasn’t it said that it was already lost in a Forbidden Desolate Land?” Jiang Chen realized everything, and she understood why the Jiang Family’s disciples hunted him.
The Heavenly Fault Sword’s worth wasn’t determined by the fact that it was a Doctrine Artifact or not, but by the fact that it could become a Doctrine Artifact, and this was the reason why many people went crazy over it.
“It’s really a pity, as it’s a quite good sword,” Ji Yinyi said suddenly.
“Why are you saying such words?”
“Can you use this sword as you wish? Aren’t the Jiang Family’s disciples hunting you because you used this sword?”
A crazy thought emerged in Ji Yinyi’s mind, and she spoke after considering its merits and demerits, “Even if it became a Doctrine Artifact, it will still be useless to me, as It’s just a source of disaster.”
“You aren’t mistaken, and it’s just because of it, I must strive hard, and cultivate.” Jiang Chen put away the Heavenly Fault Sword, as he sighed.
A trace of helplessness appeared in his eyes, as he extended his hand toward the Redcloud Sword.
The Heavenly Fault Sword was just a Quasi-Doctrine Artifact, yet many people looked for it, while the Redcloud Sword was already a Doctrine Artifact.
However, the Heavenly Fault Sword’s potential was obviously higher than the Redcloud Sword.
Both of them closed their eyes and rested just after, as they waited for the ship to finish crossing the Forbidden Desolate Land.
The flying ship suddenly shook after an unknown amount of time passed, and it changed the direction where it was going.
“What’s going on? Did we reach the end?” Jiang Chen asked in confusion.
Even though he didn’t know the concrete direction, but the flying ship would surely not chose its direction at random, and it would proceed in a straight line according to the spiritual object detected by the Itinerary Stone.
“We were intercepted!” Ji Yinyi’s expression became solemn, and she looked ahead of them, as she spoke, “I suddenly realized that I suffered a loss. You are really a dangerous person, and since I’m protecting you in your travel, you must take Ji Ruxue as your disciple.”
“If the enemy waiting for us there is a Great Venerable, I will admit that this task is quite difficult, and will take Ji Ruxue as a disciple.”
Jiang Chen still enjoyed this situation in spite of his suffering, and he spoke helplessly.
