Chapter 245 – Duan Jianhong’s Stratagem
“Lord Jiu, what happened to your cultivation?”
When Xuan Ye sensed Wu Jiu’s cultivation, his expression immediately changed.
“Don’t worry, my cultivation will recover in time. I was trapped in an isolated space for ten years, and when I was about to die, brother Jiang Chen saved my life. Without him, I would now be a dead body.”
Wu Jiu said.
“I see. Luckily, Lord Jiu is alright. I really have to thank brother Jiang!”
Hearing what Wu Jiu said, Xuan Ye’s attitude toward Jiang Chen immediately changed. Since Jiang Chen was Wu Jiu’s savior, that man he was also Xuan Ye’s savoir. Because in Xuan Ye’s mind, Wu Jiu’s life was hundreds of times more precious than his own.
Now, Shangguan Wei had offended Jiang Chen. If Jiang Chen didn’t kill him, Xuan Ye would kill Shangguan Wei instead.
“Senior, please save me!”
Shangguan Wei’s face had become red, and he kept shouting at Xuan Ye with a shrill voice. His voice had become hoarse become of the screaming. The gigantic dragon claw was crushing him like a gigantic mountain, and it was coming from all directions.
“Shangguan Wei, since you have made a mistake, you’ll have to bear the consequences yourself. It’s up to brother Jiang to decide what to do with you, I’m not involved in this matter.”
Xuan Ye said in a stiff manner. However, his words were like a death sentence for Shangguan Wei.
Ahh!!
Just as Xuan Ye finished his words, Shangguan Wei immediately let out a mournful blood-curdling screech. He had been killed by the True Dragon Palm in a miserable way. At this point of time, over 20 Late Divine Core warriors had died, and the entire scene was filled with pungent smell of blood. Broken limbs and dead bodies were scattered all over the place; it was a bloody and cruel scene.
What happened today would definitely be remembered by everyone at the scene. Jiang Chen’s ferocious reputation would also be heard by generation to come. Compared to those wild demons and devils, Jiang Chen was the true bloodthirsty demon lord.
The death of all these Late Divine Core warriors didn’t mean the end of this battle. After Jiang Chen killed Shangguan Wei, he turned his sight to the nearly 20 remaining Mid Divine Core warriors.
The expressions of these men changed dramatically; their faces paled in an instant, and some were even trembling because of fear. Just a look from Jiang Chen had caused to them to see the gates leading to hell.
“Lord Jiu, he has killed a lot of men, and if we let him continue, more than half the warriors in Inferno City will have been killed by him.”
Xuan Ye whispered to Wu Jiu. He had stayed in Inferno City for seven years, and although there were constant conflicts and fights, making it seem like human lives were worthless in this place; slaughtering so many people along, like Jiang Chen did, it was the first time something like this had ever happened in Inferno City.
“So what? They deserve it.”
Wu Jiu stared blankly at Xuan Ye.
“Understood.”
Xuan Ye immediately bowed toward Wu Jiu; he dared not neglect Wu Jiu’s words. In the entire Martial Saint Dynasty, there weren’t really anyone who dared neglect Wu Jiu’s words.
“Chief Jiang, please spare my life, I’m willing to hand over all my belongings!”
“Me too! I was blind to offend chief Jiang, I hope chief Jiang can forgive me and let me go! I’ll give you all my belongings!”
“Right, we will hand over everything we got, we won’t even leave behind a single pill, it will all belong to chief Jiang!”
…………
There were few who truly didn’t fear death. The more fiendish a man was, the more scared of death he was. When the shadow of death was cast above the head, whatever wealth a man possessed become worthless, and the most important thing was to keep living. There was always an opportunity to find more wealth, but a man only lived once, and once life ended, it was completely gone.
“Hand over all your belongings, then each of you cut off one arm.”
Jiang Chen said with an indifferent tone.
“What?! Cut off my arm?”
Someone exclaimed. But, his ending was similar to that of the previous man. Right as his words left his mouth, he was slashed in half by a single sword strike.
“I do not show mercy upon those who have tried to kill me. Asking for one arm is the lightest punishment I can bestow upon you. I’ll count to three, those who are not willing to do it, die. Don’t think I’m joking, none of you are qualified for my jokes.”
Jiang Chen gazed at all the men from left to right. His gaze was like razor sharp edge scratching their faces, causing the fear in their minds to increase.
“Damn it, I’ll do it, it’s just one arm; it is worth less than my life!”
Many men made up their minds. With combat weapon in hand, they cut off one of their arms while gritting their teeth. No one thought Jiang Chen was joking, he was not someone who joked a lot. So many Late Divine Core warriors were killed by him, even Shangguan Wei was killed by him. If Jiang Chen wanted to kill them, it wouldn’t take him too much effort.
Before Jiang Chen started counting, all the men sliced off their own arm. After that, they handed all their belongings over to Jiang Chen in a respectful manner, including the combat weapon in their hands.
For these Mid Divine Core warriors, losing an arm wasn’t really a serious injury. If they could obtain good treatment in time, although they still wouldn’t be able to get their arms back; losing an arm wouldn’t really affect their cultivation.
Jiang Chen took all the storage rings and combat weapons, then he stored it all in his storage ring. At the same time, Big Yellow came up to Jiang Chen while bouncing around excitedly, then he handed all his harvest over to Jiang Chen.
“Kaka, buddy, we’re rich now! The wealth we obtained in the outer perimeter can’t compare with what these men possessed! Buddy, you’re an enormous treasure vault right now, in the future, when daddy wants to eat natural essences, you’ll have to give me!”
Big Yellow said as his tail wagged back and forth.
“No problem.”
Jiang Chen patted the dog’s head. As long as he had it, he would give Big Yellow anything he wanted without hesitation.
After that, Jiang Chen and Big Yellow turned around and went to Wu Jiu.
“Chief Jiang, you’re such a mighty man!”
Wang Heng stared at Jiang Chen while blinking his eyes; he absolutely worshipped Jiang Chen. Even Guan Yiyun and Tian Yishan worshiped him. The gap between them and Jiang Chen was not small. As haughty men, if they could accomplish what Jiang Chen had, that would be enough glory for a lifetime to them.
