Chapter 696: Warning
Tian Jian stared at Bi Hai with a rather astonished gaze. He was obviously extremely surprised by the fact that Bi Hai was Jian Chen’s grandfather, but he did not continue that topic. He gently waved his hand and said, “Everyone should disperse and find a place for Jian Chen to rest quietly. I know what happened here before. You mustn’t tell others about this. Keep that in mind!”
“Junior understands and definitely will not let any part of it leak out. “Nubis, Jiede Tai and the others all said respectfully with their hands clasped.
Afterwards, Ming Dong personally carried Jian Chen into his bedroom, while Tian Jian, Huang Luan, You Yue, Bi Liang, Little Fatty and the others followed behind.
Looking at him lying on the bed, unconscious and smeared with blood, Huang Luan, You Yue and Bi Lian all began crying painfully. They were some of the people who cared the most for Jian Chen, so Jian Chen’s miserable appearance caused the three girls to be deeply pained and heart-broken.
Afterwards, Huang Luan immediately removed several Class 6 Radiant Spirit Pills from her Space Ring to feed to Jian Chen, hoping that his injuries would quickly recover.
“Don’t feed it to him. Jian Chen’s body is extremely peculiar and possesses very great regeneration abilities. His injuries are currently healing very quickly and he should completely recover without much time.” Tian Jian stopped what Huang Luan was doing and explained indifferently.
Huang Luan paused for a moment, before finally putting the Radiant Spirit Pills away.
“Uncle Tian, I just knew you would come. This time, we were fortunate to have you, otherwise Jian Chen really would have been in grave danger.” Ming Dong looked at Tian Jian with gratitude. However, there was still lingering fear. He struggled to imagine just what would happen to Jian Chen if Tian Jian did not appear on time.
Tian Jian smiled, “Jian Chen is a great genius of our Tian Yuan Continent. His talent is unprecedented and his future achievements have no limit. If such a genius really dies when he is young, our Tian Yuan Continent would suffer a great loss. Don’t worry, your uncle Tian will not just let Jian Chen be harmed without doing anything.”
“Uncle Tian, so you’ve always been secretly protecting Jian Chen.” Ming Dong was delighted. With this, did it not meant that Jian Chen would not meet anymore life-threatening dangers on the Tian Yuan Continent?
Tian Jian smiled, but he did not make any confirming gestures. Actually, ever since he discovered Jian Chen could see and communicate with the barrier spirit of Mercenary City, he had already began to view Jian Chen with great importance and left an extremely obscure imprint on Jian Chen. When Jian Chen’s life really was in danger, he would appear and help out.
Learning that the grand elder of Mercenary City was secretly protecting Jian Chen, Bi Lian, You Yue and Huang Luan were secretly delighted. They were extremely happy, because they knew that with the grand elder of Mercenary City behind him, it would become Jian Chen’s greatest safeguard in the future.
Just at this moment, Jian Chen’s finger twitched slightly. Shortly afterwards, his eyes slowly opened and he looked around in confusion. When he saw Tian Jian, he immediately understood what had happened. With a weak voice, he said hurriedly, “Thank you senior for saving me.”
“Jian Chen, you’re finally awake.”
“Ah… brother, you’re awake.”
With Jian Chen waking up, it was a pleasant surprise to everyone. They all gathered by Jian Chen’s bed to ask about how he felt. They cared for him very much.
Jian Chen sat up on the bed with some difficulty. The concern that everyone showed for him, filled his heart with warmth. He said, “Everyone doesn’t need to worry, I’m fine.” With that, Jian Chen suddenly remembered something. He glanced around frantically and only relaxed slightly after seeing the tiger sleeping by his side. He lifted up the white tiger softly and muttered, “Luckily Xiao Bai wasn’t been taken away by that king from the Gilligan clan. Otherwise, it would’ve been a disaster.”
“Jian Chen, just what identity does Xiao Bai possess? How did it attract a king from the Gilligan clan to come and take him?” Ming Dong stared at the white tiger and asked curiously.
Hearing that, Jian Chen hesitated. It was not because he did not want to tell Ming Dong, but rather, he really could not let any more people know about the identity of the white tiger.
Seeing how Jian Chen was stuck between a rock and a hard place, Tian Jian intervened in time, “Child, you don’t need to know about this. You all should forget about what happened before. Don’t talk about it in the future. Okay, everyone should get out, I have some things I need to discuss personally with Jian Chen.”
“Yes, uncle Tian!” Ming Dong replied obediently, before leaving with his curiosity and everyone else. However, after what had happened, everyone already knew that the identity of the white tiger was a secret and definitely was not as simple as it seemed.
When Ming Dong and the others had left, a clear barrier suddenly appeared, enveloping the entire room. The barrier was created personally by Tian Jian, isolating the entire room. Even Saint Kings would not be able to overhear what was being discussed inside.
“Senior, what do you want to discuss with junior?” Seeing how careful Tian Jian was, Jian Chen’s expression also became serious.
Tian Jian stared at the tiger in Jian Chen’s arms with a complicated gaze. Only after some time did he give a soft sigh, “Jian Chen, there’s not much time left. You must let the Winged Tiger God grow up quickly. Otherwise, your time with it will not last much longer.”
Jian Chen expression changed slightly. He asked, “Senior, has it got to do with the Gilligan clan?”
“This matter is not as simple as you have imagined it. Threats to the Winged Tiger God come from all directions and they’re not necessarily threats you can handle.” Tian Jian paused for a little before continuing, “Looks like there’s some things I should explain to you, Jian Chen. The Gilligan clan actually is just a chess piece left on the Tian Yuan Continent by the Beast God Continent, and the Gilligan clan trying to obtain the Winged Tiger God is probably just due to the command of the ruler of the Beast God Continent. As a result, although the Gilligan clan has been repelled this time, experts from the Beast God Continent will come to our Tian Yuan Continent very soon.”
“Although the threat from the Beast God Continent will be handled by the guardian clans of the Tian Yuan Continent, the matter concerning the Winged Tiger God is extremely important. If it’s leaked out and the guardian clans learn about it, they will definitely be interested in the Winged Tiger God after they successfully repel the forces of the Beast God Continent. At that time, if you don’t have enough power, you’ll just become a fish, being carved up by anybody. Even my Mercenary City will not be able to help you.” Tian Jian’s tone was very serious.
