Chapter 2528: Chapter 2531: Beating a Dog That’s Down?

"What?"

"You can erase the Blood Soul Mark?"

Zhuo Bufan and the others exclaimed, their gazes toward Jiang Chen filled with shock.

This guy, how many skills is he hiding?

Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, didn’t explain much, confirmed Lu Xian and others’ locations, and softly called, "Let’s go."

Zhuo Bufan saw Jiang Chen didn’t want to discuss the topic, so he didn’t ask further. After all, everyone has their secrets; he was only expressing his surprise.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Jiang Chen led the way, and everyone leaped forward one after another.

...

At the border between the inner region of the Abandoned Plains and the Central Region, in a dense forest.

Two groups were confronting each other, each group having over a hundred experts.

"Lu Xian, this person killed my Lei Yang Village’s three war generals. Are you sure you want to hold this grudge?"

The leader of one group, a middle-aged man, looked coldly at the leader of the opposing group.

One of the groups was Lu Xian and others, who received a distress signal from the people of Wind Thunder Valley. When they followed the compass, they found that the attacked ones were ten brothers waiting outside with Jin Hu for Jiang Chen. The pursuers were from Lei Yang Village.

"Chen Tongjiang, aren’t the grudges between our Wind Thunder Valley and your Lei Yang Village enough? Not to mention killing your three war generals, even if we killed all five, Wind Thunder Valley would still take it on!"

Lu Xian spoke indifferently.

Chen Tongjiang, a war general from Lei Yang Village, clad in black Xuan Robes, his face as indifferent as Lu Xian’s, emitting a fierce Blood Fiend Aura, more intense than Yan Li’s.

"Lu Xian, you should know the identities of Lei Ying and the others. Are you sure you want to go to war with our Lei Yang Village?"

Chen Tongjiang remained expressionless, yet his words were filled with a stern killing intent, and his eyes showed icy glints.

"Does Lei Yang Village still have the heart to go to war with others? First, resolve your troubles! If not, then there might be no more Lei Yang Village left in the Abandoned Plains!"

A mocking voice sounded, and several figures leaped beside Lu Xian and others.

"Mr. Jiang, you’ve returned?"

Lu Xian and others exclaimed joyfully, then froze on the spot.

To them, even if Jiang Chen and the others managed to break out from the trading town, they would certainly have to go through a bloody battle. Yet now, everyone seemed fine, even their clothes were as immaculate as new, making Lu Xian and others extremely astonished.

"Kid, what did you say?"

A cold voice sounded, a fierce killing intent rushing toward Jiang Chen.

Swoosh!

Lu Xian flashed and stood in front of Jiang Chen, blocking Chen Tongjiang’s killing intent.

"Mr. Jiang, you just said..."

Yan Li also looked at Jiang Chen with astonishment.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, looking nonchalantly at Chen Tongjiang: "The Vice-chief of Lei Yang Village, Gui Ying, had been implanted with a Soul Devour Seed by the Nether Kui Snake, enhancing his strength using Soul Devouring Power, yet the Nether Kui Snake is someone that the Canglan Great Emperor has explicitly issued a Decree of Execution for!"

"What!?"

"How is that possible!?"

"Doesn’t that mean..."

Whether it was Chen Tongjiang’s group or Lu Xian’s group, all were wide-eyed, exclaiming.

"Now Gui Ying has been slain by two Saint Experts from the Canghai Trade Alliance and Semi-Saint elders from Spirit Sword Sect, Yuanling Sect, and Qingyang Sect. The Primordial Spirit clone of the Nether Kui Snake within him has also been captured. You ask what I said? I’m saying Lei Yang Village has gotten itself into big trouble! The Vice-chief turns out to be someone decreed by the Great Emperor to be executed, do you still think Lei Yang Village can explain themselves?"

Jiang Chen continued: "At this moment, Pang Tong has already headed to the Central Region, reporting to your village chief. Do you still want to go to war with Wind Thunder Valley? Lei Yang Village is planning to be besieged?"

"You’re... you’re telling the truth?"

Chen Tongjiang’s heart trembled. He was well aware of how serious it was to be involved with someone decreed by the Great Emperor to be executed. This was not something that hiding in the Abandoned Plains could evade.

When the Canglan Great Emperor wants someone caught, even if they flee to another continent, they will still be caught!

Swoosh!

Before Jiang Chen could answer, a bloody radiance emanated from Jin Hu, who was protected by Lu Xian and others. The radiance formed into a bloody mark, flying directly toward Chen Tongjiang.

Chen Tongjiang’s face changed. He was very familiar with this bloody mark; it was Lei Yan’s Blood Soul Mark. Seeing the mark fly out, Chen Tongjiang’s heart skipped a beat.

Being near the mark, Lei Yan would surely notice. However, to desperately strip away the Blood Soul Mark to send a message, this was enough to show how severe the situation was on Lei Yan’s side.

By this time, Chen Tongjiang almost believed Jiang Chen’s words.

"Tongjiang, if you catch someone, immediately bring them back. If not, don’t try catching; bring your people back to the village right now, inform everyone under your command to return to the village immediately!"

An elderly, deep voice sounded from the bloody mark.

The village? The village chief even left the Central Region and returned to the village?!

Chen Tongjiang’s heart trembled fiercely, he looked up at Jiang Chen, cupped his hands toward the mark, "Yes!"

Crash!

The bloody mark flickered for a moment, and instantly vanished.

"Leave!"

Chen Tongjiang called to the Lei Yang Village people behind him, flashed, and flew towards the inner region.

The people of Lei Yang Village followed quickly with panic-stricken faces. They had heard Jiang Chen’s words too, and now panic arose in their hearts. Lei Yang Village was indeed in great trouble!

"Mr. Jiang, are you really telling the truth?"

It was only now that Yan Li still found it hard to believe, looking incredulously at Jiang Chen, while Lu Xian and others also gazed at him.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly: "Of course it’s true. Gui Ying was exposed and slain by five great experts. Three sects were detained by Brother Pang under the guise of Gui Ying’s matters for wanting to kill me. Otherwise, how do you think we could leave the trading town so easily?"

"This time, Lei Yang Village is likely to fall!"

Lu Xian showed a hint of excitement in his eyes: "Perhaps we’ll soon receive a summoning message."

"A summoning message?"

Jiang Chen paused slightly, then realized: "To hit a drowning dog?"

"Certainly! This is a great opportunity, regardless of whether Lei Yan knows of this matter, using this chance, we can attack Lei Yang Village’s territory, and it’s perfectly legitimate."

Lu Xian nodded firmly, then suddenly thought of something, and urgently asked: "Who else knows about this matter?"

"Uh... it happened at the trading town’s entrance, it should be spreading now, right?"

Jiang Chen blinked, responding softly.
