Chapter 1688 - Kill the Marching Dragon
Xiao Nuo needed to always keep an eye on the progress of her training. She couldn’t slow down.
“Don’t worry, nothing will happen to me,” said Xiao Nuo.
This was why she hadn’t intended to tell Jiang Chen. She knew he would worry about her too much.
“What if you’re hurt? What if you get caught up in the war or calamity that’s coming, or you get poisoned or something? If something were to happen to you, the chance of you dying would be 100 times higher than for others,” said Jiang Chen.
Xiao Nuo raised her head that had been resting on his shoulder and looked at his eyes. It was rare that she didn’t talk back, but, instead, in a girly manner, she said gently, “To have been able to see you again, I am already satisfied.”
“I’m not satisfied! I wanted you to be my wife. You were the person I loved the most in my life.”
“I saved the world. How could I not save you?”
The black-robed man had disappeared. Xiao Hongxue was now thinking about the black-robed man’s plan.
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, Xiao Hongxue realized the changing condition of the Vulcan Ring.
“This bastard? Does he want to die?”
Through the Vulcan Ring, Xiao Hongxue discovered that Jiang Chen was rapidly moving through the middle prefecture. It was obvious that he was using a teleportation formation. He was moving 1,000 miles a minute.
The most important thing that Xiao Hongxue had realized was that he was coming toward the area of the Sovereign Spirit Palace.
Tianling Mountain was located near the Sovereign Spirit Palace. Therefore, Xiao Hongxue naturally thought that Jiang Chen was coming for him.
“What?”
After putting on his best armor, he realized that something wasn’t right. “Why is this brat heading to the Soul Hall?”
Soul Hall, which was the core of the Sovereign Spirit Palace, was also where his master resided.
Xiao Hongxue knew there was a grudge between his master and Jiang Chen. Only one of them could survive if they ever went at it.
“Is this guy crazy?”
Xiao Hongxue was very clear about how strong the Marching Dragon was.
If Xiao Hongxue had a person that he feared most, his master would be at the top of his list.
From his perspective, if Jiang Chen wasn’t even at his level, why did he have the nerve to still go to look for his master?
“Did he find out about my contact with the blood race, and he’s gone to tell my master about it? It can’t be. Wouldn’t he be supposed to go to the Sacred Institute?”
Ever since the news of him infiltrating easily had spread, the Sacred Institute had tried to denounce him.
Now, Xiao Hongxue wasn’t the only one who realized that Jiang Chen was approaching. The Scared Institute’s spy also realized that Jiang Chen was heading toward the Soul Hall.
“What is he trying to do?”
Ye Qiu, who’d received the news, was very anxious. Even though he didn’t know about the grudge between Jiang Chen and the Marching Dragon, the Sovereign Spirit Palace was not a place that welcomed Jiang Chen.
“Quickly inform the Stepping Heavenward Venerable Monster and Jian Yi. Have them rush over to prevent accidents,” Ye Qiu ordered.
The news had spread among all the forces.
One was Jiang Chen; the other was the Sovereign Spirit Palace. Both presences couldn’t be ignored.
The Martial Divinity Palace’s vice lord, Jian Jingfeng, was also speculating. He’d fought by Jiang Chen’s side before. His son, Jian Wuji, had busted through the Demon city with Jiang Chen.
“What he did was equivalent to saving my son. If something were to happen, I must take action,” Jian Jingfeng thought.
Jiang Chen was no longer the young man who everyone wanted to beat up. Perhaps externally no one was close to him. However, a number of people remembered his kindnesses.
During the afternoon, Jiang Chen had rushed from the celestial palace to the Soul Hall, which was equivalent to crossing the whole middle prefecture.
Soul Hall was also a major city.
The city under the Soul Hall was the capital of the ten largest mega-cities, which
was at the heart of the middle prefecture, which was also the leading center of the current world.
Warriors from all races and ranks could be seen stopping here, inquiring about information and trading business.
Compared to the city under Soul Hall, Tianqi City and Wind Cloud City were nothing.
At that exact moment,on all the streets and in all the taverns everyone was discussing the news of Jiang Chen becoming an Extraordinary Supreme Venerable.
“This Jiang Chen has really bounced. Last time I caught sight of him, the eight generals from my Sovereign Spirit Palace were chasing after him.”
“Haven’t seen him till now. He didn’t even dare to step into Soul Hall. Obviously, he is afraid of the Sovereign Spirit Palace.”
“He went from mid-level Martial Arts Saint to Extraordinary Supreme Venerable. What an insult to the Supreme Venerable Stone. I don’t even know what method he used.”
The majority of the people had bad opinions about Jiang Chen.
“Marching Dragon! Come out!”
While these guys were talking about how the Extraordinary Supreme Venerable Jiang Chen was too full of himself, a thunderous, angry voice shouted. The whole city was shocked.
