Chapter 1060: The First Captain

The roars from the Saint Rulers rang through the entire city, so everyone learned that someone had destroyed the captain’s sculpture . It threw everyone into a rage, to the point where even more mercenaries took to the skies and quickly flew toward the center .

The main headquarters of the mercenaries was located toward the rear of the city . It was a palace constructed like an emperor’s and the core power of the mercenaries gathered there . The people in charge stayed in this palace .

Currently, the green-dressed Bi Lian and several high-ranking members of the mercenaries were sternly discussing the developments of the Flame Mercenaries .

Suddenly, a shout passed through the various obstructions and resounded clearly in the room, disrupting Bi Lian’s meeting with the others .

Bi Lian’s complexion immediately darkened when she heard that someone had destroyed the sculpture of her own brother . Her eyes shone with a chilling light .

“Hmph, I’d like to see just who it is that dares to destroy my brother’s sculpture . I definitely won’t let them go so easily for acting so recklessly . ” Bi Lian was enraged . She slammed the desk and left despite the meeting . She strode outward with a darkened face, while the high-ranking members followed closely behind her .

Jian Chen floated several hundred meters in the air at the center of the city . Jian Chen crossed his arms and leisurely watched as the Saint Rulers quickly approached him . By his side, Rui Jin floated expressionlessly, gazing at the obliterated sculpture from time to time . Some doubt also filled his eyes .

The Saint Rulers all possessed surging presences as they drew their Saint Weapons . Then, they surrounded Jian Chen and Rui Jin . Surging energy pulsed wildly around them, which caused the surrounding space to slightly twist . They were ready for battle at any time .

“Who are you? Why have you destroyed captain Jian Chen’s sculpture? Why don’t you quickly…” A Saint Ruler yelled at Jian Chen as he glared at him, but before he had finished speaking, he became surprised . He stared blankly at Jian Chen’s appearance as disbelief flooded his face .

The Saint Ruler stared blankly at him for quite a long time . Then, he asked with a trembling voice that was filled with shock, “Y- y- you’re captain Jian Chen?”

“What! Captain Jian Chen…”

The four other Saint Rulers all became astounded when they heard this . They immediately observed Jian Chen carefully . They had never seen Jian Chen before, but they had seen his images and his sculptures, so they were familiar with his appearance . They immediately noticed that the young man really did seem the same as their captain .

Another tremendous aura appeared, rapidly drawing closer to Jian Chen’s location . It was the ancestor of the Bi family, Bi Hai, who flew over with Bi Lian at lightning speed .

Both of their faces were pale as anger burned within them . The destruction of Jian Chen’s sculpture seemed to have touched their most sensitive area . They were currently thinking about how they would viciously punish the person who destroyed the sculpture .

But when the two of them saw the Saint Rulers that encircled Jian Chen and Rui Jin, they became stunned as stupefaction filled their faces . A bucket of cold water seemed to extinguish their roaring flames of anger, disappearing completely .

“Brother, how is it you!?” Bi Lian called out . She was astonished .

Bi Hai also stared at Jian Chen in stupefaction . Then, he looked at the pile of dust that was once a sculpture . He was confused . He had already learned that the person who destroyed the sculpture was his own great grandson by now .

“We greet captain Jian Chen!”

The Saint Rulers that had arrived first finally confirmed Jian Chen’s identity . Without any hesitation, they bowed and respectfully greeted Jian Chen . They were all extremely excited . Jian Chen was a legendary figure of the continent, someone that could only be heard about in stories . Even as Saint Rulers, they struggled to stay composed .

As for their anger, it had completely disappeared long ago .

Jian Chen saw Bi Lian’s thin face, and his anger about the sculpture vanished in that moment . Love began to fill his heart, and he made his way through the air to Bi Lian in an instant . He then looked at her lovingly and pitifully, as he gently said, “Lian’er, it really must have been tiring managing the matters of the mercenaries . ”

Bi Lian could not help but smile sweetly from Jian Chen’s loving concern for her wellbeing . However, she then gazed past the missing sculpture in the center of the city and became confused . She asked, “Brother, did you destroy the sculpture?”

“Yes, it was me who destroyed it,” Jian Chen said nonchalantly as he stared at the clouds of dust in the air .

“Brother, the statue was sculpted with a great deal of effort from over a hundred artisans I found . Why did you destroy it? Was it badly sculpted?” Bi Lian felt like she had suffered a wrong as she spoke delicately .

“Lian’er, don’t get mad . Brother has no intentions of blaming you . It’s just that you don’t understand the origins of the mercenaries . The statue standing in the center of the city should not be depicting me, but the first captain of the Flame Mercenaries,” Jian Chen said softly . He gazed into the horizon as reminiscence filled his eyes .

“The first captain? Aren’t you the first captain, brother?” Bi Lian became surprised as disbelief filled her face .

Jian Chen shook his head, “Lian’er, I am not the first captain of the Flame Mercenaries . The first captain was called Kendall . I’m only the second . ”

The matters from the past flashed through Jian Chen’s head like a movie . Jian Chen thought back to the days where he wandered the Magical Beast Mountain Range with the members of the Flame Mercenaries .

He could still remember clearly that many years ago, the Flame Mercenaries faced the pursuit of a Class 5 Golden Fur Tiger King . In the end, everyone died to it except him, including the first captain, Kendall .

Kendall’s greatest wish was for the Flame Mercenaries to become the greatest and most powerful mercenary group on the Tian Yuan Continent . As a result, Jian Chen took up the great aspiration of expanding the Flame Mercenaries in order to complete Kendall’s wish .

Back then, when he became the second captain of the Flame Mercenaries, he was alone . Afterward, Ming Dong joined . Now, after so many years, the mercenary group had expanded from its initial, nameless state to something that could shake up the continent .

“Brother, who is the first captain of the Flame Mercenaries? Why haven’t I heard a single thing about him after staying so long in the Flame Mercenaries?” Bi Lian asked .

Jian Chen sighed gently, “He died many years ago . ” With that, Jian Chen suddenly grabbed at the ground with his two hands . The ground at the center of the city quickly began to move, and the soil surged rapidly into the air . It climbed higher and higher . In just a few second, Jian Chen erected a huge statue from the earth .
