Chapter 2555: Chapter 2558: How Many Saints? (Extra for Wu Ming, Second Place in the Weekly Rankings)

"Just try it!"

Hu Yiqiu shouted out, staring fiercely at the five Semi-Saint experts: "If even a single hair on Young Jiang is harmed today, you’d better watch out, the old man will camp at your factions’ doors every day, specifically to kill your disciples!"

The people from the five major factions all had a change in their expressions. Hu Yiqiu had a special status—they could not kill him, but if he really did as he said, their young generation would never again be able to venture out for training.

"Is the Inner Court Elder of the great Changling Academy really so shameless?"

The Zhou Family Semi-Saint shouted in anger.

"Do you have shame? Over twenty Integration Realm Peak experts, five Semi-Saint experts, ganging up on a junior at Divine Infant Realm Peak, you truly have some face!"

Hu Yiqiu mocked loudly.

The faces of the young people from the five major factions changed again. Sending so many people to besiege a junior was indeed disgraceful.

"Hu Yiqiu, stop being unreasonable here. Jiang Chen killed many people from our factions, and today we’re here to take him back for punishment, not to besiege him!"

The Qin Family Semi-Saint argued.

"You shameless bastard, is it common or not for people to die while seizing resources on the Abandoned Plains? Besides, your people were the ones to make a move on Young Jiang first, and him killing them in return was just them getting what they deserved!"

Hu Yiqiu cursed vehemently: "If you take him back, would Young Jiang come out alive? Stop being a whore and then claiming to be chaste, everyone knows these fancy words only make you look more hypocritical!"

The onlookers were all casting odd glances at the five major factions. Hu Yiqiu was right—saying these things now leaves them with nothing but hypocrisy!

The faces of people from the five major forces darkened, feeling a burning anger being publicly insulted by Hu Yiqiu in front of so many people, but there was nothing they could do, and they were itching with hatred.

"Hmph! This is just your one-sided story, who can testify?"

The Zhou Family Semi-Saint coldly said: "As for the truth, it can be found out after we capture him and take him back."

"Hehe! Really..."

Hu Yiqiu sneered upon hearing this, about to continue his mockery, when a cool voice interrupted: "No need to investigate, I can testify. The people from the five major forces first tried to attack Jiang Chen, which led to him killing them in self-defense, including those Semi-Saint elders who even tried to ambush him, truly disgraceful!"

Everyone was shocked to hear this. At such a critical time, who would dare to say such a thing? Were they courting death?

But when everyone turned to look, their expressions changed drastically. Whoever spoke might even need the major factions to endure! 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Standing on top of a store beside the street were five figures, led by an absolutely stunning woman, none other than Si Huang’er and her entourage.

"Little Princess, what do you mean by this?"

The Zhou Family Semi-Saint’s eyes flickered with a hint of nervousness, asking softly.

"Didn’t you ask who can testify? I’m merely answering your question."

Si Huang’er spoke coolly.

Pfft!

Many from the surrounding crowd nearly burst into laughter.

The Zhou Family Semi-Saint’s question about who dared to testify was meant as a threat and show of power, but unexpectedly, someone here indeed was not afraid of the threat. Si Huang’er’s response placed them directly in the wrong, leaving them awkwardly stuck.

"A bunch of wastrels!"

A low voice rang out, and a figure suddenly appeared before the five Semi-Saint experts.

Buzz!

The surrounding space was suddenly frozen, with everyone’s consciousness halted, not affecting Si Huang’er, as the person who appeared dared not involve Si Huang’er, feeling an even stronger aura beside her.

Buzz!

In an instant, another mystical and ethereal fluctuation appeared, directly shattering the restrained domain released by the newcomer.

"Saint Expert?!"

"Damn! A Saint appeared?!"

"Didn’t see that coming?"

"Which family’s Saint is this?"

The consciousness of the crowd returned, and they exclaimed, quickly retreating to the town’s edge, watching from a distance.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

"Greetings, Sect Master Liu!"

"Greetings, Sect Master Liu!"

The people from the five major forces all bowed and saluted the newcomer.

Jiang Chen’s heart pounded violently, fear gleaming in his eyes. Just now he felt a lethal threat, if someone hadn’t intervened, he might’ve inexplicably died!

The terror of a Saint’s might!

"Don’t worry, you won’t die!"

A calm voice echoed in Jiang Chen’s Sea of Consciousness, followed by a warning: "But there are several Saints here, this fairy cannot act casually. If I reveal myself, it might bring you more trouble. What I can do is protect your life, but solving this situation will have to be up to you."

Several Saints?

Jiang Chen’s pupils narrowed, glancing around; here only the man who appeared and Jin Ming, who suddenly showed up, there were no other Saints. Two isn’t several, could it be...

Unease gripped his heart as two jade pendants appeared in his hands, one on the left and one on the right, as Jiang Chen looked up at the figure suddenly appearing in the sky.

Clad in loose black robes, with a stern and cold face, radiating a frigid killing intent, was none other than the Qingyang Sect Master, Liu Changlong.

"Great Elder Jin Ming, is your Gold-devouring Rat Clan planning to oppose our five major forces?"

Liu Changlong narrowed his eyes slightly, looking coldly at Jin Ming.

"Liu Changlong, you’re truly shameless, Qingyang Sect’s Sect Master, a Saint expert, personally taking action against a junior at Divine Infant Realm Peak, you really disgrace all past Qingyang Sect Masters!"

Jin Ming mocked fiercely, his stance very clear.

The surrounding people all fell silent.

Before a Saint, none dared to speak recklessly, but the look they gave Jiang Chen was full of doubt.

What did this guy do to provoke Saints, and he’s quite strong, even capable of bringing a Saint to his aid?

"Great Elder Jin Ming, if your Gold-devouring Rat Clan’s Supreme Elder were here, perhaps he could protect this kid, but alas, you haven’t reached that level, today you cannot protect him!"

Liu Changlong coldly glanced at Jin Ming, then called out, "Gentlemen, show yourselves!"

"What happened?"

"Could there be other Saint experts hidden in the void?"

"For just one Jiang Chen, what kind of group is gathering?"

The surrounding crowd couldn’t hold back any longer, exclaiming one after another.
