Chapter 101
After teasing Chu Luo, Jiang Chen paid attention to the lamp in his hand.
According to the book, this lamp was called Soul Leading Lamp. Apparently, they had named it so because it was used in the imperial mausoleum, but Jiang Chen didn’t want to call it by this name.
Different from the Redcloud Sword, it wasn’t damaged at all. Neither had it lost most of its energy.
If this were an average spiritual weapon, it would have malfunctioned a long time ago, because it was too old or lost its power. Only spiritual weapons of class five or higher could resist the effects of time.
Of course, this resistance was only relatively effective. After tens of thousands of years, even spiritual weapons of class five or higher would stop working.
Let me try its power.
Jiang Chen walked out of the palace and injected his genuine yuan into the lamp. Then, he put the wick close to his mouth and blew on it.
“They weren’t demon lords. If you guys had fought together against them, there would’ve been a chance to survive. Probably at most, one person would’ve been killed. But you all fled. If you hadn’t run into me, you would all be dead,” Jiang Chen said coldly, staring at the guy in front of him.
“We… we didn’t know how many they were, and we were afraid that we would be stuck,” a youngster quibbled in a low voice.
Jiang Chen shook his head and said, “I know the way out. Follow me if you want to survive.”
“Really? That’s great!”
The guys became excited when they heard what Jiang Chen had said.
However, when one of them recognized Jiang Chen, the joy faded from his face. He said, “Are you Jiang Chen? Gao Chenyi’s enemy, the one who told us not to open the iron gate?”
“Yep, that’s me,” Jiang Chen didn’t understand why he had asked.
“Then we’re not going with you.”
To his surprise, they refused him.
As if staying with him was more dangerous than not having a way out.
Jiang Chen and Dorchid were puzzled. Even Chu Luo didn’t get it.
“What’s going on?” Jiang Chen asked.
They didn’t hold back and said directly, “Gao Chenyi went down as well, with a guy in the Mental Wander State. Almost no one could defeat or stop this guy. They took your two friends, too. Besides, the prince of the Grand Qi State was…”
“My brother?! What happened to my brother?” Dorchid grabbed the speaker’s arm emotionally.
“Deagle had a class-six spiritual dagger with him. Gao Chenyi wanted it, but he refused to give it to Gao. Then Gao Chenyi said it was him who had brought Jiang Chen here, so he cut Deagle’s head off…”
Not until then did the guy recognize Dorchid. He didn’t have the heart to keep telling her what had happened to Deagle.
She squatted down and burst into tears.
After a good while, she said in a hoarse voice, “Jiang Chen, revenge my brother! Please! Kill that Gao Chenyi for me!”
Jiang Chen replied with only three words.
“I promise you.”
