Dragon-Marked War God

Jiang Chen came to Xiao Wangqing’s front and saluted him deeply.

“Senior, I can’t thank you enough.”

Jiang Chen rarely bowed to people, however Xiao Wangqing’s kindness was beyond his imagination. The incident in Golden Horizon could be said to be the craziest thing that Jiang Chen had done in his life. In order to condense his Dao of Slaughter, he had made almost the whole world his enemy and offended the three great Immortal Courts. It was afraid that only Jiang Chen had such ability across the entire Immortal World.

Indeed, he had underestimated the impact of the incident. If it wasn’t for Xiao Wangqing, even if he had three heads and six arms, his death was certain. Not even the Ancestral Dragon Pagoda would be able to protect him.

“I was only buying time for you to grow. In order to survive in this world, your strength must always be at the top. Even my abilities aren’t as good as yours; but, don’t let your guard down. This is all that I can do for you. I’ll leave the rest to you. None of the peerless geniuses of the Immortal Courts is easy to deal with, but remember this, an enemy is still an enemy. No matter when or where it is, you have to be ruthless to your enemy. There can be only life and death between you and your enemies. Of course, you have been doing a good job in this aspect, in fact, much better than me.” Xiao Wangqing advised earnestly, as though he was educating his own descendant.

“Jiang Chen understood.”

Jiang Chen nodded. Xiao Wangqing had already done enough for him. He would have to rely on himself after this. He didn’t like to depend on people anyway. Any battle that would happen next would be the true trial for him. Just as Dragon Shisan had said, going against the Heaven was an endless enjoyment.

Jiang Chen never feared battle. The geniuses of the Immortal Courts could only pressure him, but could scare him. One could only grow when one was pressured. There was still a long way in the path of dragon transformation skill. The same went to his own path.

“Alright. I will keep the Sun Divine Feather for you first. It’s up to you now whether you will live or die.” Finishing his words, Xiao Wangqing vanished with a flash.

“Senior Xiao, I still have something to say……” Jiang Chen shouted hastily, but Xiao Wangqing was already out of sight.

Jiang Chen helplessly shook his head. He still had plenty of questions to ask – regarding the secrets in the Golden Horizon, the Great Thousand Mirror, and the location of the Desolate Ancient Land. He reckoned that someone like Xiao Wangqing would more or less have some knowledge about it, unfortunately Xiao Wangqing was already gone too quickly. Jiang Chen wasn’t given the chance to inquire further.

Forget it. I’m not strong enough. It will be no use even if I have known those secrets. Just like what Big Yellow had said, I will naturally know it when it’s the right time. I’m afraid that I’m going to have lots of visitors soon.

Jiang Chen muttered, adjusting his frame of mind to the coming storm.

“Little Chen, Senior Xiao is truly amazing. How did you get to know him?” Han Yan appeared next to Jiang Chen. His blood couldn’t help but be stirred at the thought of Xiao Wangqing’s domineering manner.

“Would you believe it if I say that he was an old liar who cheated for food and drinks?” Jiang Chen shrugged.

“I wouldn’t believe it.” Han Yan shook his head.

“Then ask no more.” Jiang Chen shrugged again.

“Ye Er, activate the grand formation of Genius Prefecture once more. The matter has finally come to an end, however the Immortal World won’t be peaceful anymore after this,” the Old Emperor spoke to Yang Yu.

“Father, grandfather, can Jiang Chen remain in Genius Prefecture after this?” Yang Bufan spoke. This was his biggest concern.

“That’s of course. Xiao Wangqing has personally left him here. Who would dare to not let him stay? I would have to take back what I said then, haha……”

Yang Yu laughed heartily. He most welcomed Jiang Chen’s return. It was a great blessing that Great Qian Empire had such a peerless genius.

“Great! Little Chen, we can fight side by side in battles again.” Yang Bufan patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder enthusiastically.

“Little Chen, since the matter here has already been settled, Mo Wuqing and I will return to Profound Yin Cult now. After all, I’m the chosen one of my cult,” Han Yan spoke.

Previously, he had decided to stay here because he couldn’t stop worrying about Jiang Chen’s safety. Now that Jiang Chen was safe and had a reliable backing, he no longer had to worry about him. As for those peerless geniuses of the Immortal Courts, he believed that his brother was capable enough in handling them. He ought to pity those geniuses.

“We’re going back as well. Don’t forget to inform us as soon as that monkey wakes up.” Tyrant also came forward to bid goodbye.

“Very well. Go now. I can take it from here. I will certainly find a way to wake monkey up as soon as possible. This bastard cultivates the Life Symbol Art. Also,  he has the heaven-defying physique of a Battle Saint Ape. It won’t be a difficult thing for him to move again. I estimate that his cultivation base will improve once again, reaching another terrifying level after he wakes up,” said Jian Chen. He still had incomparable confidence in Dragon Shisan.

As for Han Yan and Tyrant, since he already knew where their sects were and that they were doing well, it wouldn’t be hard for him to find them.

Han Yan and Tyrant then left. Jiang Chen was looking at the sky, his eyes revealing a trace of lofty sentiments. The Immortal World was just too vast, however he believed that he would be able to stand at the pinnacle of this world someday.

In the evening, Jiang Chen returned to his courtyard in Genius Prefecture. Linglong, Lan Lingji, Yang Bufan, Yang Yu, Yang Zanqing, and Dongfang Yu had all gathered here. Jiang Chen had placed the body of Dragon Shisan on a huge green rock.

“Sure enough, the bloodline of the Battle Saint Ape is incredible. Despite all the viscera being broken, the bloodline hasn’t been broken yet. There’s still life force in his body, but it’s very weak and it won’t be easy for him to fully recover,” Linglong said.

She had witnessed how Dragon Shisan died an untimely death after being attacked by Old Man Corpse Yin and Old Ancestor Yellow Spring. It was impossible for him to live after suffering that degree of injury, but after a few days, life force became detectable inside his body. He shouldn’t be able to survive even with the Great Earth Immortal Milk.

She naturally didn’t know that Dragon Shsian was placed in the thirty-third level of the Ancestral Dragon Pagoda after he was killed. Although it was only less than two days outside, it had been nearly two months in the pagoda. Of course, it was already considered terrifying that he was able to regenerate his life force within two months, or that he was still alive until now.

“As Monkey cultivates the Life Symbol Art, it wasn’t strange that he still has life force in his body. Furthermore, he has absorbed a drop of Great Earth Immortal Milk, and with the support of his horrifying bloodline, all of his meridians and viscera will be reconstructed as long as he’s given time,” said Jiang Chen.
