The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 326

Chapter 326: Ning Haotian’s True Color

While the four were still surprised, Crimson Moon spoke again . "If we go to the Natural Law School now, it'll take us some time to convince them and even more time for them to come to his rescue, so it would be better to go back to inform Jiang Chen of the situation . "

This time, Yi Shuihan and the other four were too surprised to speak .

Going back?

If Yuan Hong found them, who knew what would happen?

Jiang Chen was the Natural Law School's best disciple and a member of the Hero Palace . Despite this, Yuan Hong still wanted to kill him, let alone less important disciples like them .

It was safe to notify the Natural Law School . They wouldn't hesitate to do that, but it was another thing if they had to risk their lives to rescue Jiang Chen .

Besides, it was surprising that Ning Haotian's fiancée was the one to propose it .

"Princess, that's too dangerous . I think Yuan Hong will lose his mind soon . If we irritate him, it'll be too risky . "

"Although it's not honorable not to lend a hand, we should also act according to our abilities . "

"Since we travelled to the Dragon Field by airship six months ago, Shen Huan was the only one to talk to Jiang Chen . We've had no contact with him in the past six months . "

Except for Li Hengjing, the other three had all refused her proposal .

"I won't force you . I'll let you off . "

Crimson Moon furrowed her thin eyebrows . She didn't want to make them . It was for her own sake that she was going to rescue Jiang Chen .

Without waiting for the four's responses, the machine-operated bird landed in the mountains .

Yi Shuihan, Lu Fei, and Shen Huan jumped off immediately . Li Hengjing, who had been hesitating, finally made up his mind . He said, "Princess, I'll go with you . "

The other three were surprised and embarrassed .

"Okay . "

Crimson Moon didn't waste any more time . She turned the airship around and drove it in the same direction Yuan Hong had gone .

The three watched the machine-operated bird leaving and started to discuss about Crimson Moon's decision . Although they were men, their curiosity had been piqued and they couldn't help but gossip .

"Why does Jiang Chen's life matter to Princess Crimson Moon?"

"Yeah, she was defeated by Jiang Chen in the Sacred Institute's competition . "

"And she's Ning Haotian's fiancée . "

As they recalled, after arriving at the Sacred Institute, Jiang Chen and Princess Crimson Moon had many conflicts .

Could there be sparks between them due to that?

"Gosh . "

Yi Shuihan suddenly saw something . He pointed at the machine-operated bird that hadn't yet disappeared from their sights .

It was stopped again, stuck in the air . Although it was far away, they could see a black dot over the airship . If they squinted hard enough, they would see it was a person .

Undoubtedly, it was Yuan Hong .

Yuan Hong had found them out as soon as Crimson Moon flew after him .

"After all, he is a Reaching Heaven State . "

"He's above Cloud Five, unlike Princess Crimson Moon, who's still in the initial stage . "

"Fortunately, we didn't go . "

The three men felt lucky that they had decided not to go, not ashamed . After all, it would be a favor if they helped Jiang Chen, but it also made sense if they didn't .

They felt pity for Li Hengjing . Crimson Moon might have been able to survive, but they weren't as sure about the man ranked first on the Prince List .

"Princess, didn't I ask you to leave?"

Yuan Hong's face was extremely sullen . He looked like he was tamping down his anger and could break out at any second .

"Senior, we left something behind in the Sacred Institute . We wanted to fetch it," Li Hengjing plucked up the courage to answer Yuan Hong .

"Huh . "

Yuan Hong's square face looked cold . He didn't move noticeably, but Li Hengjing's body shook . Then he paled and spit up blood .

"You're from the Lis . Do you really think in my situation that I'm still afraid of the Lis or any other group?

"It's all because of that damn Jiang Chen . He pushed me into a corner and made the whole world hate me .

"Those ridiculous people used to respect me so much, but now, they even dare to make sarcastic comments in front of me .

"Those who used to bow before me now have the nerve to threaten me!"

Yuan Hong kept talking . It had been a sunny day, but as he talked, it became cloudy and started to rain .

Yuan Hong was a Reaching Heaven State . Even though he wasn't a grand elder anymore, he was still a powerful man, but Reaching Heaven States also had their laws .

His enemies were also Reaching Heaven States . Since he had lost the protection of the Natural Law School, they were all coming after him .

"Wow!"

As Yuan Hong's rage became fiercer, Li Hengjing felt more pain . He kept spitting blood as if he had been physically attacked .

Since Crimson Moon had achieved the Reaching Heaven State, she knew he was suffering from Yuan Hong's attack . His body was being oppressed by what must have felt like a mountain .

"Senior, please stop!" Crimson Moon said loudly .

Her words worked . Li Hengjing could finally breathe, but he was already very weak .

"Princess . "

Yuan Hong squinted and frowned . He said, "You're my apprentice's fiancée . Why are you helping Jiang Chen?"

"I'm not helping him," Crimson Moon argued .

"Don't try to make a fool out of me . I heard what you said . "

Crimson Moon turned ashen . She had no excuse .

"It seems that Jiang Chen's life is very important to you . You're even willing to risk your own life?"

Yuan Hong kept pushing her . He landed slowly .

"You're Haotian's fiancée . I won't hurt you, but if you betray Haotian, I'll torture you to death as cruelly as possible!"

Crimson Moon became even paler . Her chest was heaving up and down rapidly, but she still found it difficult to breathe .

"Senior!"

Crimson Moon bit the tip of her tongue . The taste of blood filled her mouth, which grounded her . She took the chance to ask, "How did you know we would come back today and go this way?"

The world was so big, and they were travelling by airship, so they didn't have to consider factors such as terrain for the trip, but if they flew without navigation, they could severely deviate from their destination .

So they had used the same route they'd used six months earlier .

Both the route and the date were a secret, known solely by her and the other four . They had only informed their families of such information .

It was quite possible that Yuan Hong had been sent by the Xia Dynasty .

He could even have been sent by Ning Haotian to kill Jiang Chen .

She had considered such a possibility at the beginning, which was why she was willing to risk her own life to help Jiang Chen .

The royal family knows Jiang Chen is a member of the Hero Palace . They wouldn't do that, but if he was killed due to an old rivalry, the Hero Palace wouldn't be able to say anything about it .

And the Black Dragon City doesn't know that he joined the Hero Palace yet .

Although Crimson Moon was proud and arrogant, she wasn't stupid . After weighing and considering, she was almost sure it was the Black Dragon City behind Yuan Hong's appearance .

Ning Haotian had probably arranged it personally .

No, no way .

Crimson Moon refused to think about such a possibility .

In her eyes, Ning Haotian was an upright genius . Despite the affair with the holy pulses, she still believed it had been the Black Dragon City's decision that Ning Haotian had been forced to accept .

Assassinations like this didn't comply with her impression of him .

If Jiang Chen was killed by her fiancé in a life-or-death fight, she wouldn't blame her fiancé for losing the method to develop her extraordinary meridians .

But this…

Haotian, is the man Jiang Chen described truly you?

Suddenly, Yuan Hong said something, and her pupils dilated .

"Princess, looks like you've figured something out . I can't let you live now . "
