The Brilliant Fighting Master - Chapter 58

Chapter 58: Pass

At the moment when the sword of wind struck down, the whole cliff rumbled . A crack appeared on the ground .

Jiang Chen hurried to run away from the crack, and a great landslide started . The rumble sounded like thunder .

At the same time, Ning Ping fell onto the ground . His body was still intact, but he was only one last breath away from his death .

"Help…"

Ning Ping uttered the word with difficulty . As soon as he opened his mouth, large amounts of blood spurted out .

Many arrows were aimed at Jiang Chen, who had just managed to stand firmly .

Jiang Chen didn't show any mercy, either . He killed all of the subordinates .

When he went back to Ning Ping, the eldest child of the Nings had already died . His eyes were still wide open .

If he hadn't provoked Jiang Chen, with his gear and subordinates, he would have passed the trial of the Natural Law School easily .

Whoosh!

Jiang Chen was shot in the chest by an arrow . He fell down instantly, his hands covering the wound .

Su Qian came up to him with a resentful expression, holding a bow in her hand . She was about to put the second arrow onto the string .

"You must hate me a lot," Jiang Chen said .

Su Qian took a look at the arrow in Jiang Chen's chest first and then gave him a cruel smile . She said, "You shouldn't have written that certificate of divorce!"

"I am a hundred times more excellent than I was before . Did you ever regret it?" Jiang Chen said .

Su Qian hadn't expected him to say this . She became absent-minded . It was true . What if she hadn't broken up with him? Jiang Chen had become promising again . His grandfather had achieved the Mental Wander State .

She could become even more credible than before .

"It's already too late! You don't have much time left anyways," Su Qian said coldly .

Then she put the arrow on the bow and aimed at Jiang Chen .

"Not necessarily . " To her surprise, Jiang Chen stood up suddenly and grabbed her bow .

"How…" Su Qian turned pale and kept stepping back .

Then her eyes were opened wide in surprise . It turned out Jiang Chen had been faking . He had caught the arrow that targeted his chest and was grasping it in hand so that Su Qian had the wrong impression that she had hit him .

"Jiang Chen… I… I'm not…"

The resentful expression on her face disappeared . She looked delicate and touching once again . The change was so sudden that Jiang Chen didn't know what to say at the moment .

"I really liked you, the Jiang Chen from before . "

Jiang Chen let out a sigh and shot the arrow .

The arrow pierced through Su Qian's delicate body . She couldn't accept her unexpected death . Her stunned face froze there forever .

Jiang Chen was exhausted after all this . He only had a little genuine yuan left .

It was difficult for him to even move a finger .

However, he heard footsteps again . Jiang Chen couldn't help forcing himself to smile, thinking about how to deal with it .

Fortunately, it was Wen Xin .

She came because she had heard the noises there . She frowned at the corpses on the ground . When she saw Ning Ping's dead body, she was greatly surprised .

"You killed him?"

Wen Xin looked over to Jiang Chen, who was sitting on the ground, resting . She was assured when she saw him so exhausted .

"Who else could have?" Jiang Chen smiled .

"You…"

Wen Xin didn't know what to say . Jiang Chen was in the beginning of the preliminary stage, but he had not only killed Jiang Shichao, but also killed Ning Ping and his subordinates . This was noteworthy .

Then she recalled his cheekiness when he was facing danger . At that moment it seemed to her that he had charm and confidence, since he was able to joke even in a life-and-death situation .

"Many people are coming this way . It'll be dangerous for you if they have any malicious intentions . I can help you," Wen Xin came up to him and said very quickly .

"So?" Jiang Chen sensed it was not that simple .

"Instruct my swordsmanship after the trial," Wen Xin said .

"You know how to take advantage of me well . No problem!"

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and stretched his right hand out to her, but he found her expression became very weird . She looked embarrassed, and kept standing there, still .

"Do you want me to crawl down the mountain?" Jiang Chen asked .

Wen Xin crouched down . She took Jiang Chen's hand to put it around her shoulders and helped him stand up .

Jiang Chen didn't weigh much . Wen Xin was tall . It should have been easy, yet she was blushing and walking quite strangely .

Jiang Chen noticed this and found it amusing . On the surface, she was an aloof, pretty girl, but she was actually extremely shy .

He changed his position intentionally . He smiled and sidled up to Wen Xin, then whispered into her ear, "Have you ever been so close to a man?"

His breath washed over her ear . Even her neck started to blush .

She loosened her hold and Jiang Chen fell onto the ground .

"Hey, that was too much!" Jiang Chen looked to be in pain . His eyes were filled with dissatisfaction .

"If you don't stop talking nonsense, I'll leave you here," Wen Xin warned him while she helped him up again .

This time, Jiang Chen behaved himself . They went down the mountain in silence .

But to their surprise, they met someone on the way .

"Wen Xin, you two…"

It was Hong Youjun . She came because she had heard the noises as well . She didn't expect to run into Wen Xin and Jiang Chen, who were so close together .

Seen by an acquaintance in such a situation, Wen Xin wished she could find a cave to hide in . Jiang Chen had learned his lesson . He grasped her shoulder tightly, lest she loosen her hold on him .

"He's injured," Wen Xin explained, and then went on walking .

Hong Youjun went up to Wen Xin and whispered to her, "Wen Xin, he is being chased by Ning Ping and Zhang Shichao . "

Although Jiang Chen was kind to her brother, the trial ground was a cruel place, and people had to be realistic .

"Ning Ping is dead . His body is on the mountain," Wen Xin said .

"So is Zhang Shichao," Jiang Chen smiled .

Hong Youjun was even more surprised than Wen Xin, and she was embarrassed by what Jiang Chen had said . He had heard what she said to Wen Xin .

The three of them found a place to stay . Wen Xin immediately helped Jiang Chen sit down so that he could regulate his breath by himself .

This time, it took him the whole day to recover .

When he opened his eyes, he had achieved the beginning of the middle stage of the Gathering Yuan State .

The enhancement that a desperate battle could bring people was huge, and it was even greater when it came to a fighting genius .

In the air, Elder Cloudcrane was relieved when he saw Jiang Chen's state enhancement . At that moment, there was almost no one at the trial ground that could be a match for Jiang Chen .

He was even more joyful when he saw Elder Li's long face .

"Even if he joins the Natural Law School, Ning Haotian won't let him off easy," Elder Li said .

"The Natural Law School doesn't belong to Ning Haotian," Elder Cloudcrane said .

"Hum . "

Elder Li left in a fit of rage, maybe because he didn't want to stay there, or maybe because he wanted to inform Ning Haotian as soon as possible .

As for Jiang Chen, as Elder Cloudcrane had observed, there was no equal rival of his at the trial ground after he had achieved the beginning of the middle stage .

On the third day, everyone at the trial ground was informed of the deaths of Zhang Shichao and Ning Ping .

Everyone was busy trying not to even run into Jiang Chen, let alone trying to grab his flags of the natural law .

The trial ended on the fiftieth day, when Jiang Chen had collected five flags successfully . So had Wen Xin and Hong Youjun .

Wen Xin's ability was obviously excellent, so it was natural for her to have achieved it . As for Hong Youjun, she was extremely grateful to Jiang Chen, since she had procured the five flags successfully thanks to him .
