Chapter 1223 - The Revenge of the Wizard Race
The roots of the Divine Tree of Creatures almost extended to every inch of the land of the Divine Prison Continent. However, the tree branches were quite sparse, especially at the periphery. The fierce beasts that had been scared into escaping returned to their dens again.
At the center of the divine tree, Jiang Chen gathered with those who had not left. Shangguan Ru and Han Cong’er were leaving, but Jiang Chen stopped them. “The Western School and the Ancient Race will probably try to get revenge against you on your way home. I’ll send you back,” said Jiang Chen.
“We don’t want to give you so much trouble.” The two women thought Jiang Chen was going to escort them back in person.
“No trouble at all.” To their surprise, Jiang Chen deployed a portal connected to the Shangguans.
“You’ve prepared for it.” Deploying a portal would need techniques and some necessary materials. The practicing body Luo Cheng had prepared these things.
“The three academies aren’t going to allow you to do this. The name of your force is especially a problem. It’s too high-profile,” Shangguan Ru said to him through holy awareness before leaving.
The Divine Tree of Creatures and the Heavenly Palace had given too much information away. Jiang Chen did not say anything. He just nodded.
“As far as I know, aside from Ji Yuan, the Wizard Race lost many warriors. They certainly had more value than Jiang Chen’s family.”
“How can you see human life this way? What matters is how people feel about each other.”
“Jiang Chen will go mad.”
The Wizard Race acted without thinking. When people heard the news, they had already traveled through the Three Middle Realms and arrived in the Three Lower Realms. Even if Jiang Chen went to the rescue, he would not be able to save anyone. Besides, once he left the Divine Tree of Creatures, he probably would not be able to resist the Wizard Race. That was exactly why the Wizard Race had chosen to do what they did.
