Chapter 174
At the Palace of Natural Law of the Natural Law School…
The last batch of disciples had been taken back to the square where they’d left for the Realm of Beasts.
What had happened to those who hadn’t come back was unimaginable.
Meng Hao, Wen Xin, and the Jiangs were waiting beside the square, looking around nervously. When they realized Jiang Chen wasn’t there, their hearts sank.
Su Xiuyi and some of the elders were standing in the center of the square. They also noticed Jiang Chen wasn’t there and frowned.
As their most special disciple, Jiang Chen was the center of attention not only on the Redcloud Peak, but also in the whole school.
Some people already assumed Jiang Chen was dead when the first batches of disciples arrived.
Everyone realized what a dangerous situation Jiang Chen was in.
The killers arrival could be traced back to when the Third Prince had left the City of Bear.
Jiang Chen had landed in the square to study the other schools’ portals.
He found these portals were only accessible to those who had come here through them.
No wonder the Third Prince had left so assuredly.
“Jiang Chen, any messages you want us to pass on?”
Most interestingly, some people even asked Jiang Chen whether he had any last words.
In their eyes, Jiang Chen didn’t have much time left.
There was food and places to live. It wouldn’t be too difficult to stay here for half a year, but when everyone else was gone, the tactical formations would stop working and infinite monsters would come to him.
By then, the City of Bear was already rather deserted. There were still people in the streets, but there were less and less.
Suddenly, killers wearing black and white masks appeared at the edge of the square and walked towards him.
Jiang Chen was right. There were indeed killers of the Black White School in the Realm of Beasts, but he hadn’t expected them to have stayed back as well.
At that moment, there were only a few portals open in the square. The Black White School was an organization dedicated to assassination, not like a school or sect. They weren’t qualified to travel through the portals of the Realm of Beasts.
This meant they had accepted the fact that they had to stay in the Realm of Beasts in order to kill Jiang Chen.
“Looks like the Black Dragon City paid a lot,” Jiang Chen murmured.
Killers of the Black White School were classified into four levels—Sky, Kill, Earth, and Extinction.
Jiang Chen had killed an assassin of Extinction level before. At that time, there were ten killers of this level, and two killers of Earth.
He could tell their levels by the number of red tears on their masks.
The few people remaining in the City of Bear were more scared to see these killers than they were to see the Third Prince.
They felt very sorry for Jiang Chen. Things could always be worse; they finally understood what this sentence meant.
They didn’t want to be involved, so they hurried to run into the portals.
In the end, in the whole Realm of Beasts, in the entire City of Bear, only Jiang Chen and twelve killers of the Black White School remained.
Jiang Chen was still sitting there. He glanced at the silent killers before him and said, “Say something. You shouldn’t forget the opening remarks.”
The killers stayed still, their eyes ice cold.
“I’ve got some things to ask you. How will you leave here after killing me?
“Why did you wait until now?”
Jiang Chen asked two questions in a row.
“The profile didn’t mention you were a chatterbox,” an Earth-level killer said.
“I’ll die here anyway. Why bother keeping quiet?”
“You’re the Black White School’s target.” What a simple reply.
“Fine. The Third Prince is more powerful than you two. Even he can’t kill me. How are you going to do it?” Jiang Chen said.
Hardly had his voice vanished when he flew into the air, but when he looked down, he was surprised to see there was no one in the square.
He looked around and found the twelve killers had him under siege, standing in the air.
