The Brilliant Fighting Master

Chapter 423 - Trap and Ambush



After a tenth of the treasure had been taken away, Jiang Chen still had a significant amount left. Besides the crystals of fire dragon and holy dragon balls, he had finally found a practice resource in the jade bracelet.

It was cold jade, without any cut or polish. Formed from rocks, it still had stone covering its surface.

Jiang Chen could see it was the highest grade of cold jade. Carrying it with him, he could calm down and focus better. During practice, he wouldn’t be influenced by his environment.

“Let’s continue,” said Han Siming.

Cheng Qing nodded. She was sensing the location of treasure while leading the team. This time, it took her longer to find anything.

When she finally found something and headed to it, they found other people had arrived before them once again.

Jiang Chen gradually realized the spiritual ware Cheng Qing used for treasure seeking had many limits.

Some people showed up along the mountain wall, smiling cunningly at them.

“We’ve been set up,” said Cheng Qing.

Jiang Chen had read in a book that there was a fierce monster that was very sly. When they were dealing with humans, at first, they wouldn’t kill any of them. They would only injure them and wait quietly until their companions came to their rescue.

These people were the same. They hadn’t taken the treasure in the underground palace so that other teams would still come, then they would kill the newcomers cruelly and steal their treasure.

They didn’t have to do anything but wait. In this way, they could get treasure at the lowest possible risk.

“Three are dead,” Han Siming murmured. As the leader, he regarded the casualties the team suffered as his own incapabilities.

“Don’t blame yourself. It was my fault, too. I was too confident.”

Everything had gone so smoothly since Jiang Chen had entered the secret treasure that he had been off guard and rushed into there, but repent and guilt wouldn’t help. Jiang Chen was thinking about how to solve the current crisis.

None of the arrows had hit Han Siming’s key parts, but he felt weak, and his expression was dark. “The arrow heads are poisoned.”

Jiang Chen gave him an antidote immediately to relieve his pain.

Out of the tactical formation, the team behind all of this had occupied all vantage points. Their leader asked, “You came out of the Celestial Dragon Gate with very few casualties, and you were the first one to sense the tactical formation! You’re actually good. What’s your name?”

“Jiang Chen,” he answered honestly in order to stall for more time to figure out a way to crack the tactical formation.

As for Han Siming’s poison, he would have to detoxify it by himself.

“Jiang Chen? Never heard the name.” The man thought for a while, tilting his head, then shook his head confusedly.

But apparently, someone had said something to him through holy awareness, because it seemed like he realized who Jiang Chen was.

“I’m sorry. I don’t know anyone outside of the top thirty of List A of the Dragon Rise List,” he said politely, even smiling.

However, his pride was also evident when he mentioned the top thirty.

And Han Siming’s team was shocked. Did that mean he was ranked in the top thirty himself?

Trapped in the tactical formation, would they be able to survive?!

At such a thought, desperation spread among them, except for Jiang Chen. He smiled, because he had found a way to crack the tactical formation.
