Chapter 56
Jiang Chen was only in the peak of the preliminary stage. Of course Shen Huan wouldn’t believe that he had killed Zhang Shichao, who was on the Eternal Flame List.
“Watch out. He’s mastered the sword point,” Su Qian suddenly said.
Both Shen Huan and Jiang Chen looked a bit uncomfortable.
“You know him?” Shen Huan didn’t rush to attack, but turned around to ask Su Qian.
She nodded and didn’t say more.
“She is my ex-fiancée, but I broke up with her. I don’t think you have very good taste,” Jiang Chen said.
Both Shen Huan and Su Qian’s expressions darkened, especially the latter. The certificate of divorce was shameful to her.
“Idiot.”
Jiang Chen brandished the Redcloud Sword. In a flash of the sword’s ray, Shen Huan was frozen. He covered his throat with his hands, but blood didn’t stop flowing through his fingers.
“You really believed her.”
Jiang Chen watched Su Qian leave and shrugged his shoulders, feeling a bit bored.
He had intended to see those two kill each other.
It wasn’t because he was cruel, but because Su Qian’s behaviors really made him want to teach her a lesson.
He wanted Su Qian to understand she couldn’t conquer all the men in the world.
Besides, this woman was evil. Jiang Chen only wanted to tease her at the beginning, but she took the chance to say he concealed his swordsmanship level intentionally.
Does she think I am as foolish as Shen Huan? Jiang Chen shook his head. If he wasn’t being chased, he would definitely hunt down and kill Su Qian.
I should have killed them directly and not made fun of them. Did that woman evoke the dark side in me?
Jiang Chen wasn’t a guy who didn’t care about others’ lives, but he was no saint either. If he made up his mind to kill someone, he would kill them with no hesitation.
But what he had done had, in some ways, violated his principle.
“Do I hate all women because of Xiao Nuo?” Jiang Chen thought to himself.
At the same time, Su Qian was finally relieved when she made sure Jiang Chen wasn’t after her.
He didn’t believe me at all. Su Qian’s eyes were filled with hatred at the thought of this.
Suddenly, she heard several sounds, and the sounds were all emitted at the same time.
Whatever they were, Su Qian realized she had been surrounded.
In an instant, many people appeared around her with torches in their hands. Judging from the position of the flame, everyone was mounted on some type of animal.
“It’s not Jiang Chen,” one of them said.
“Damn. Where is he?!” another guy cursed immediately.
Su Qian recognized Ning Ping’s voice, since he had announced he would reward anyone who killed Jiang Chen.
Su Qian hurried to ask before they left, “Wait, are you chasing Jiang Chen?”
“Oh? Do you know where he is?”
Ning Ping turned around and sized her up.
“Yes. I’ll tell you, as long as you guarantee my safety,” Su Qian said.
“No problem,” Ning Ping agreed without any hesitation.
“He’s further ahead. He just killed my companion because my companion heard what you said…” Su Qian wasn’t sure whether she should continue or not.
“Your companion was useless. Don’t waste any time. Take me there!”
Ning Ping lifted her onto his mount without asking her. He made Su Qian his guide.
“Oh? You’re pretty,” Ning Ping didn’t see Su Qian’s face until then. A smile pulled up the corner of his mouth.
