The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 347

Chapter 347: In a Stalemate

Jiang Chen looked up and found the golden dragon claw had been pulled back, but the clouds were still moving .

Then the clouds formed a big swirl . It converged into a point at the top and gradually revealed a human figure .

It was a large middle-aged man in a concealing robe with golden patterns on its sleeves and front .

There wasn't any unnecessary expression on his clear-cut face . He had a natural majesty even though he wasn't angry . One look of his could put people under great pressure .

A Venerable!

Ning Hai had managed to behave like a Venerable with the aid of the power of the black dragon . Unlike him, this man was a real Venerable .

Several people appeared in the air instantly, all of them emitting a strong energy .

"What's going on?"

The sudden change confused those who had thought things were over . The Black Dragon City thought they were reinforcements . Their hope was reignited .

"Who are you?" asked Jiang Chen .

The sky was dominated by these people, while the Black Dragon City was his territory . As long as the Magic Column was there, they wouldn't dare land .

As long as he held on, Ning Haotian would be burnt to death .

"Murong Xiong from the Murongs . "

"Murong Fei from the Murongs . "

"Su Yan from the Sus . "

"Su Qi from the Sus . "

"…"

Those in the air introduced themselves . They were from two aristocratic families of inheritance .

Jiang Chen realized dragon blood was actually the inheritance of the Murongs . He didn't remember what the Sus' inheritance was, but by hearsay, it definitely wasn't dragon blood .

"Jiang Chen, let him go," Murong Xiong, leader of the group, ordered in an undisputed tone .

"No," Jiang Chen answered decisively .

"I wasn't asking for your opinion . It was an order . " Murong Xiong frowned slightly . As he spoke, the sky went dim and the clouds darkened .

"You think you can order me around?" Jiang Chen hated his tone .

"Do you think the Magic Column can stop me?" Murong Xiong shook his head . He laid his eyes on Ning Haotian, intent on going to rescue him .

Suddenly, he looked very serious . He squinted . So did the others .

They saw several Destructive Angry Lotuses fly out of Jiang Chen's hands and fall throughout part of the city . They were still buds, whirling slowly .

"Come on! Don't give me any reason to look down on you . Murongs, come down to rescue him!" shouted Jiang Chen .

Murong Xiong's lips were a thin line . The others looked at each other and didn't know what to say .

"Crazy . He's mad . "

"He'll die, too . I don't think he dares activate the lotuses . "

"If you don't think so, go down and rescue Ning Haotian . "

"…Forget it . Jiang Chen is too unpredictable . "

The big men from the Dragon Field had more or less heard of Jiang Chen . He had killed a man in the presence of the elders of the Hero Palace to defend an animal .

It was hard to say whether he would risk his own life to kill them .

"Jiang Chen, you just told Su Quan you would let Ning Haotian go if she had fed him with the right pill . But why are you doing this now? Maybe you've never intended to let him go since the beginning," Su Qi, an elder of the Sus, said .

"I would let him live, but I wouldn't allow him to go like this and come back to take revenge against my family when he's strong enough . I would destroy all of his practice attainments and draw all of his dragon blood so that he would live his whole life as an average man .

"But your arrival has reminded me of the risk . Of course, you would like to do whatever you could to train such a genius .

"You would even get revenge for him to please him . "

Jiang Chen was very logical . He said slowly, "So, you'll be irritated by his death, but you won't risk your own life to kill me just for a dead man . "

He glanced at Ning Haotian . The dragon flame was getting higher and higher and less possible to approach .

Suddenly, he kind of regretted landing in the city . Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to speak with these men . It would have been better to bomb them to death directly .

"Jiang Chen, you're smart . So now you're waiting for Ning Haotian's death, aren't you?" asked Murong Xiong .

Jiang Chen smiled without answering him . With Ning Haotian's current condition, it would be impossible to save him without turning to any external force .

At the same time, the Devastator on the warship was accumulating power again .

Added to the Magic Column and the Destructive Angry Lotus, Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Do you dare come down?"

No one answered from the air . They had witnessed the power of the Destructive Angry Lotus .

One lotus could kill a Venerable . There were sixteen around Jiang Chen at the moment .

If they were activated at the same time, even a great Venerable would be scared off .

"By the way, Murongs, why do you want to save Ning Haotian?" Jiang Chen took the chance to ask .

"Why did you ask a question when you already know the answer? You're only stalling for more time," Murong Xiong sneered .

Jiang Chen didn't get angry . He smiled and said, "Let me guess . An ancestor of Ning Haotian's had pure blood, so the Sus and the Murongs merged through marriage . Am I right?"

That was the exact purpose of aristocratic families getting married frequently .

Ning Haotian was a member of the Sus, but it was the Murong dragon blood that had woken up .

"So the Sus didn't get the best of the deal," Jiang Chen smiled .

The Sus moaned in a muffled voice without any comment .

"Jiang Chen, do you think as long as we're stuck in a stalemate like this, you'll be fine? That we can do nothing except watch Ning Haotian die?" Murong Xiong broke the silence and said again .

"What else can you do?"

"You're from the Hundred Thousand Mountains, a place called the Southwind Ridge, aren't you? There isn't a Magic Column or a Destructive Angry Lotus there, right?" A cold smile showed at the corner of Murong Xiong's mouth .

The smile on Jiang Chen's face faded . His look was as sharp as a sword . He said, "What I hate most is to be threatened with my clansmen by others . Murongs, think about it . There are no irreconcilable problems between us . But if you dare do anything to my clansmen, the Murongs' territory will end up the same as the Black Dragon City . "

"Haha!"

An elder of the Murongs burst out in laughter . What Jiang Chen had said sounded like a joke to him .

Murong Xiong shook his head, too . He didn't take Jiang Chen's foolish words seriously .

But what Jiang Chen said next stopped him from laughing .

"The Black Dragon City laughed at me like this, too . "

The whole crowd quieted down .

Then he said again, "Besides, you managed to arrive here so quickly through some special portal, which means you won't be able to leave the Black Dragon City easily . So stop bluffing . "

"Should I say you know too much or you know too little? Do we need to eliminate your family personally?" said Murong Xiong coldly .

Then another man appeared, but instead of through a portal, he came flying in from somewhere .

"Young lord . "

Fan Tu knew things were unfavorable for them as soon as he recognized who it was .

Jiang Chen's face was sullen, too .

It was the emperor of the Xia Dynasty .

"Chief Murong, the troops outside the Hundred Thousand Mountains are already in place . As long as they receive the order, no one in the mountains will survive," said the emperor .

It was pathetic that the emperor of the Xia Dynasty was apple-polishing the Murongs to such an extent . It also showed how powerful the Murongs were .

"Jiang Chen, there isn't much time left for us to think . If Ning Haotian is burned to death, your clansmen will be eliminated," said Murong Xiong .
