Chapter 2523 - 2526: Abandoning Jiang Chen?
"Don’t worry, I’ll leave through the front door!"
Jiang Chen glanced at those people, and said calmly, "However, we want to stroll around this trading town first. If your people are willing to wait, then let them wait."
"You..."
"You dare to make four Semi-Saint powerhouses wait for you? You’re courting death!"
"Kid, do you think you can hide in this trading town forever?"
Several people monitoring them shouted angrily.
Jiang Chen ignored them and took Su Qingluan and three others to start wandering around the town.
The few men were a bit dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. They exchanged glances and looked at a middle-aged man in the center.
"Follow them! Don’t let them get out of our sight!"
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, his eyes flashing fiercely, and then stepped forward to follow Jiang Chen and the others.
"It seems like their group is still not complete."
One man reminded softly.
"It doesn’t matter, just keep an eye on Jiang Chen; he’s our target!"
The middle-aged man spoke softly.
Everyone nodded in agreement, no longer hesitating, and followed.
At the entrance of the town.
Two hundred people stood thirty meters outside the gate, led by four elders, coldly staring at the entrance of the town.
Some passing cultivators gave fearful glances at those people, staying far away whether entering or exiting the town.
A chilling aura of killing intent gathered above the entrance of the town, making the entire area feel oppressive.
"What’s going on here?"
Some newly arriving cultivators didn’t understand what was happening and urgently asked the people nearby who were waiting to watch the fun.
For cultivators, a few days don’t mean much. To watch an excitement, many cultivators are willing to spend these few days waiting, and they are also willing to share this anticipation with others.
Just like that, more and more cultivators gathered at the town entrance, almost surrounding the town entrance for hundreds of meters.
Whoosh!
Amidst everyone’s wait, a sound of something breaking through the air came from within the town, and everyone suddenly brightened their eyes, all staring at the figure leaping towards the gate.
The man, after leaping out of the town gate, was a bit shocked by the scene he saw, then urgently leaped to Gui Ying’s side, who was waiting.
"Deputy Chief, Jiang Chen has left the auction house!"
The man respectfully folded his fists and saluted.
Over two hundred people all turned their attention towards him.
Gui Ying’s eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a chilly voice, "Is he coming to the gate?"
The man’s expression changed slightly, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "No, he said... he wants to stroll around the town, and we should wait if we want!"
"Bastard!"
"This kid is seeking death!"
"When he comes out, we must make his life worse than death!"
A series of curses rang out.
These over two hundred people were either from the three major sects or Unity Realm powerhouses from Lei Yang Village. Normally, they are high and mighty, but now they have waited here for several days for a mere young leader at the peak of the Divine Infant Realm, their hearts full of anger.
Now, hearing that Jiang Chen had left the auction house but hadn’t come out, their anger could no longer be contained!
Gui Ying and the others heard this and their faces sank, their eyes cold. Qi Shan looked around and said coldly, "Could that kid be waiting for someone to rescue him?"
"No!"
Gui Ying said coldly, "The Chief of Kuang Long’s side is watching; he won’t have any chance for reinforcements. The little princess has already left the Abandoned Plains, and Pang Guang of Canghai Trade Alliance is currently in a sensitive period and wouldn’t dare to offend us at this time."
"He still has people from the Gold-devouring Rat Clan with him!"
Qi Shan softly reminded.
"I’ve had people keep an eye on the other members of the Gold-devouring Rat Clan; there are only three in this town, not worth worrying about!"
Gui Ying spoke again.
"It seems Deputy Chief Gui Ying hates Jiang Chen even more than I do!"
Qi Shan looked at Gui Ying with a hint of surprise.
Gui Ying said blandly, "The three warriors Jiang Chen killed were the sons of Chief Lei Yan."
Qi Shan and others were surprised for a moment, but then their eyes showed a smile.
With this, they didn’t need to worry about Lei Yang Village withdrawing because of fear of Jiang Chen’s strength. The forces on these Abandoned Plains fight fiercely but are also very opportunistic. Otherwise, they couldn’t have existed in such a special place for so long.
"Hmm? The people from Wind Thunder Valley, are they abandoning Jiang Chen?"
Suddenly, Chen Rui looked towards the town entrance in surprise.
Hearing this, Gui Ying and others looked up. At the town entrance, Lu Xian and Yan Li were leading nearly a hundred people from Wind Thunder Valley out of the town.
Frowning, Gui Ying’s divine sense scanned Lu Xian and the others.
"How about it?"
Qi Shan asked in a low voice.
"No trace of Jiang Chen, though there are two from the Gold-devouring Rat Clan and some of his friends mixed in the crowd!"
Gui Ying replied softly.
"Hmph! Looks like this kid was really abandoned!"
Elder Liu in white snorted coldly, eyes full of mockery.
Qi Shan frowned, eyes deep within showing a hint of doubt. Those people dared to charge even against his team; would they really be afraid just because of a few Semi-Saint powerhouses?
"Lu Xian, Yan Li, are you really going to break your word and abandon Jiang Chen?"
Pang Tong’s eyes twinkled as he loudly called out.
As an old enemy, he wouldn’t miss this opportunity to suppress Wind Thunder Valley’s reputation.
Lu Xian glanced at Gui Ying and the others, then coldly stared at Pang Tong, "Pang Tong, it looks like you know something, don’t you?"
Pang Tong was momentarily stunned, looking at Lu Xian with surprise and a touch of confusion in his eyes.
"Pang Tong if I find out that your people from Lei Yang Village ambushed my brothers from Wind Thunder Valley, I will come back for you!"
Lu Xian glared hard at Pang Tong, then turned and left the town with his people.
"Elder Qiu, should we stop those people connected to Jiang Chen?"
Chen Rui glanced at the departing figures of Lu Xian and others, speaking in a low voice.
"No need, this is the Abandoned Plains after all; it’s better not to overly offend Wind Thunder Valley. Our target is Jiang Chen; as long as he doesn’t escape, it doesn’t matter about others."
Elder Qiu in blue gave Qi Shan a meaningful look, speaking softly.
Qi Shan, although we are allies, if Jiang Chen falls into my hands, your broken arm would belong to me!
A broken arm of a Semi-Saint powerhouse would interest even powerhouses of the same level. After all, it contains all the power of a Semi-Saint powerhouse, and even if it’s just a part, it has many benefits for powerhouses of the same level.
Elder Qiu and Elder Liu’s enthusiastic help to Qi Shan in dealing with Jiang Chen also aims to get that broken arm. Although they are allies, everyone knows this alliance is very fragile. And even if they took Qi Shan’s broken arm, Qi Shan wouldn’t dare turn against them directly, as he is already injured and wouldn’t be a match for the two elders if he did.
Qi Shan is also aware of this, and thus he keeps a cautious heart while cooperating with the two elders!
