Chapter 1376 - A Dragon Doesn’t Live with Snakes
Jiang Chen learned more information from Xia Houjie once they were settled in a room in the tall building.
It was tomorrow when everyone was going to proceed toward the ancient ruins. The entrances to the ruins were divided into three grades: low, middle, and top.
If one entered the ruins through a top-grade entrance, one would find more treasures and end up in an area that wasn’t considered dangerous. The middle-grade entrance was worse than the top in terms of treasures and danger, and the low-grade one was the worst of all.
The middle- and top-grade entrances had limited quotas. Only ten people could enter through the top-grade one, while only 50 could go through the middle-grade one.
As for the low-grade entrance? It obviously didn’t have any restrictions.
“Is everyone here?”
Jiang Chen got over his irritation of being here and just told himself that he would have to make steady progress. He wouldn’t think about the Sovereigns business for now, and he would just concentrate on becoming a Martial Saint.
It could be discerned that Xia Houjie was way too wary of the third-rank group.
Jiang Chen looked at the four people, three men and a woman. They all had immeasurable power and rivaled the top three of the Bloody Sea Realm’s Sacred Lord List.
“The person with sleepy eyes is called Sleeping Young Master, and he always seems indolent. But once he starts fighting, he will cause a great disturbance,” Xia Houjie said in a low voice.
The Sleeping Young Master was quite distinct, and Jiang Chen managed to recognize him at first glance. But what he didn’t expect was that this person was also sizing him up, and their gazes ended up meeting.
After a moment, Sleeping Young Master grinned and averted his gaze calmly. He wasn’t wearing a disdainful smile. But he also wasn’t wearing a friendly smile.
It was the type of smile you had while greeting strangers on the road if you were in a good mood.
“He’s quite haughty.” Jiang Chen could discern that a haughty character was hidden behind his facade.
“He isn’t the most powerful one of them. That’s the snow-white woman next to him. She isn’t just pretty, she once killed a Martial Saint.”
“Is that true?” Jiang Chen’s expression changed drastically. One’s ability to challenge someone at a higher realm level was quite limited, and it was usually impossible to surmount a whole Great Realm’s disparity.
“Of course, that Martial Saint was heavily injured.” Xia Houjie was satisfied by Jiang Chen’s reaction.
Jiang Chen felt relieved. But his expression quickly became gloomy once again. Even though it was an injured Martial Saint, it was still outstanding for this woman to kill him. One mustn’t underestimate a Martial Saint’s last struggle when facing death.
“What is her name?”
“Miss Bai. No one knows her true name, and they call her Bai, which means white, because of her outward appearance,” Xia Houjie said.
At this moment, Yuan Xiaotian, who was in the hall, jumped atop a table, grinned, and raised his head.
“A dragon doesn’t mingle with snakes. All the people at the Martial Emperor Realm’s primary stage should get lost.”
Such arrogant words gave rise to a commotion, and an uproar arose among the Young Sovereigns in the building.
“It seems like he has recently achieved a breakthrough, and he wants to get into the third-rank group.” Xia Houjie analyzed the situation, before he turned his head and looked at Jiang Chen. He said, “Brother Jiang, what is your realm level?”
“It’s the primary stage of the Martial Emperor Realm.” Jiang Chen chuckled. He didn’t feel restless and bitter inside. Instead, he was full of expectations and…ferocity.
