"You really have some nerve!"

Ke Laifu's face turned ashen as he looked at Goumao Jingshang and his two companions, a sense of foreboding rising in his heart.

The delegates who could attend this medical conference were all notable figures in the medical field from various countries. The death of any delegate would cause significant distress to their respective countries, and as the president, if a representative from his country was killed under his watch, Ke Laifu would bear a massive responsibility. Moreover, he would face severe punishment upon his return!

"It's impossible! How can you be so strong? Aren't you just at the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm?" Goumao Jingshang looked at Jiang Chen incredulously, exclaiming in terror.

Jiang Chen was slightly startled, his eyes flickering as a spark of realization flashed through his mind.

This guy actually thinks I'm at the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm? The Soul Devouring Group might not know, but the Gene Organization should be aware of me... Could it be that they don't share their information? That's actually good news!

Feeling secretly pleased, Jiang Chen glanced at Goumao Jingshang but ignored him, turning instead to Qingyuan Yingzi beside him. "Yingzi, kill them and avenge your family!"

"Me?"

Qingyuan Yingzi looked at Jiang Chen in surprise, and upon confirming that Jiang Chen was indeed asking her to kill Goumao Jingshang and the other two, she immediately waved her hands frantically. "No, no, no, I can't! They're too terrifying!"

"Don't you want to avenge your family with your own hands?" Jiang Chen's face darkened, and his brow furrowed slightly.

"I..." A mix of hatred and hesitation flashed through Qingyuan Yingzi's eyes. She bowed deeply to Jiang Chen. "Please, Mr. Jiang, avenge my family. I am willing to serve by your side forever, as your servant."

Jiang Chen's brow furrowed tightly as he stared straight at Qingyuan Yingzi.

Qingyuan Yingzi stood up and realized Jiang Chen's gaze was on her. She turned her head away, avoiding eye contact.

Mu Si and Ke Laifu exchanged glances and both shook their heads. They understood why Jiang Chen wanted Qingyuan Yingzi to personally take action against Goumao Jingshang and his companions, and they felt a pang of sympathy for Jiang Chen.

Such a talented person, yet unable to become a true Martial Artist, unable to become an asset!

In a corner of the podium, Goumao Jingshang and another companion huddled together. Seeing that Jiang Chen and others were all focused on Qingyuan Yingzi, the two exchanged a glance and, in perfect unison, did not bother with Cangben Yilang, who Jiang Chen had thrown in front of them. Instead, they rushed towards the sides swiftly.

"Stay put!"

A loud shout erupted as Yan Hu's aura explosively unleashed. He dashed towards the window, fiercely kicking out twice.

Bang! Bang!

Thud! Thud!

Two muffled sounds followed. Goumao Jingshang and his companion, kicked by Yan Hu, were sent flying back to the podium even faster than they had moved towards the window, crashing down hard.

Pfft! Pfft!

Both of them spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, their energy instantly diminished, their faces deathly pale, and a hint of terror appeared in their eyes.

"No! Jiang Chen, you can't kill us. We are representatives of Beihai National at the medical conference; you can't kill us!" Goumao Jingshang's face was filled with panic as he shouted.

"I think Mr. Ke Laifu and Mr. Mu Si can attest that I was acting in self-defense!" Jiang Chen turned to look at Mu Si and the others.

"Of course!"

Mu Si nodded vigorously, "Absolutely self-defense."

"You wanted to assassinate the representative from Y Country and Mr. Jiang. Mr. Jiang had no choice but to fight back and kill them!"

Ke Laifu even came up with an excuse for Jiang Chen right away, then snorted coldly, "When I get back, I will report this matter. You Beihai National, wait for the questioning from our great Y Empire!"

Thud!

"No! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!" Goumao Jingshang suddenly knelt down at the podium, repeatedly kowtowing toward Jiang Chen.

Cangben Yilang glared at Goumao Jingshang and turned his head to stare fiercely at Jiang Chen, "Keeping her by your side will definitely bring tremendous trouble. You can't protect her. Hand her over to me wisely and let me take her away; otherwise, you will never have peace. You can't even imagine the kind of entity you have offended!"

"I can't imagine?" Jiang Chen sneered coldly. "Isn't it just the Eight-Headed Serpent? Cangben Yilang, are you stupid? My group, the Soul Devouring Group, and yours are sworn enemies. I've already slain several avatars of the Eight-Headed Serpent's soul consciousness, why should I fear offending it again?"

"What?"

"Soul Devouring Group?!"

Mu Si both exclaimed, showing a touch of fear in their eyes.

"Yes, the Soul Devouring Group! Their so-called 'Soul Healing Art' is actually the 'Soul Devour' technique of the Soul Devouring Group. I think it probably involves planting a soul devour seed in the patient's soul. On one hand, it can control the patient, and on the other hand, it can enhance the patient's soul strength. When the soul strength improves, naturally, the patient's condition becomes much lighter, since the soul is the source of life!"

Jiang Chen nodded, sharing his speculation about the Soul Healing Art!

"So that's how it is!" Mu Si both showed a sudden enlightenment on their faces.

Cangben Yilang turned pale, his heart sinking completely. At this critical moment, he forgot that Jiang Chen was already their mortal enemy, and his own threats were useless.

"Ying Zi, they killed your family. Don't you have the courage to avenge them yourself? You should be able to see, they are already too injured to get up. What are you still afraid of?" Jiang Chen turned his head towards Ying Zi and spoke in a deep voice.

Qingyuan Yingzi looked up at Cangben Yilang and the others, who glared back fiercely at her, scaring her into quickly lowering her head again.

"Ying Zi, you are a very talented Martial Artist. At only about twenty-two or twenty-three, you already possess the strength of an Innate Grandmaster, which is your advantage. Your future is boundless, but the fear and shadows of them in your mind will become your Heart Demon. If you don't break free, you will never reach a higher realm in your life! And a person who can only stay at the strength of an Innate Grandmaster, in my eyes, is no different from trash. Why would I keep trash by my side?"

A hint of disappointment appeared in Jiang Chen's eyes, "I can take revenge for you, but please leave; you are not fit to stay beside me."

He turned his head towards Yan Hu and spoke lightly, "Hu Zi, kill them. Let's go."

"Yes!" Yan Hu nodded slightly and stepped towards Cangben Yilang and another.

"No! I…" Qingyuan Yingzi's face showed panic, speaking out in haste.

Her family had been killed and she had been controlled by Cangben Tailang and others ever since, engulfed in despair, feeling her life filled with darkness. However, Jiang Chen's appearance had brought her light and warmth.

Now, Jiang Chen's rejection made her suddenly anxious.

Biting her teeth fiercely, Qingyuan Yingzi's voice trembled, "I'll kill, I'll kill them. Sir, please don't send me away, I'll kill!"
