"Yes!"

Yan Hu and his companion promptly responded and sat down on the ground, ready to do anything as long as Jiang Chen did not ask them to leave his side.

Turning his head towards Qingyuan Caicaizi, Jiang Chen spoke softly, "Mrs. Qingyuan, once the call comes from Old Fang's side, you need to inform Sanben Jinnan. No need to fabricate anything, just describe the situation here and tell him that you managed to earn Ying Zi's sympathy by sacrificing your arm, allowing us to spare your life. To make the act more convincing, I will not treat the injury on your arm!"

"I understand!" Qingyuan Caicaizi crouched down and gently nodded her head.

"Then, we will flee to Ying Zi's hometown, Yanjing County, making Sanben Jinnan believe we are after the Qiong Gouyu. At that time, you must insist on pursuing us together with him, allowing us to coordinate with each other!"

Jiang Chen shared the final plan in a low voice, "In the end, Old Li will make his move to snatch the sachet from Sanben Jinnan's body. Before that, Old Li, you need to conceal your aura and ensure your strength does not surpass the Middle Venerable Realm."

"No problem," Li Tianchong nodded seriously.

"Once we snatch the sachet, our mission will be half accomplished. After that, I plan to present a substantial gift to the Sanzan Association and also see if we can lure in some folks from the Divine Palace. It would be even better if we could attract a Soul Clone of the Eight-Headed Serpent!" Jiang Chen revealed a grin.

"How do we lure them?" Li Tianchong asked with interest.

Jiang Chen glanced at the sky and mysteriously smiled, "I won't tell you that now. You'll know when the time comes."

At this moment, a discreet figure hovered in the sky above them.

"Has this young man noticed me? It seems his perceptive abilities have greatly improved after his breakthrough to the Venerable Realm. Maybe as Xiao Tang said, after he returns this time, he might actually be able to treat my Soul Devour injuries," the figure in the sky murmured.

Suddenly, the figure chuckled lightly, "No wonder this young man dares to act this way. He plans to use me as a pawn! What a cheeky plan he has devised!"

Below, Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze, his face full of anticipation, "I hope the Eight-Headed Serpent sends a Soul Clone of Saint Realm, at least a peak of the Venerable Realm. This way, we can dampen its spirit again and also delay the healing of its injuries—a perfect solution!"

"Saint Realm?"

Li Tianchong was startled and exclaimed in astonishment, "You are truly daring! If a Soul Clone of Saint Realm really shows up, none of us could escape!"

Jiang Chen smiled calmly, "Old Li, are you afraid of death?"

"Afraid! But I'm more afraid of dying in vain! If we could drag a Soul Clone of Saint Realm from the Eight-Headed Serpent down with us, then it would be a death worth dying!" Li Tianchong nodded decisively.

"Old Li!"

Jiang Chen was moved by Li Tianchong's words, and then his eyes glinted coldly, "This time, I will make the Sanzan Association, Divine Palace, and the Eight-Headed Serpent all regret coming after us."

Qingyuan Caicaizi nodded emphatically, a cold glint flickering in her eyes, revealing a determined resolve to face death.

Raising an eyebrow and giving a stern look, Jiang Chen said, "Mrs. Qingyuan, during our final showdown, you should keep your distance from us!"

"Why?" Qingyuan Caicaizi asked urgently, "I can help!"

"It's not that I don't want your help, but by not taking action, you are offering the greatest help," Jiang Chen said.

Jiang Chen waved his hand, "This time it's very likely that core members of the Sanzan Association will come out in full force. If we manage to eliminate them all, I will need you to take control of the Sanzan Association, which will greatly help us in dealing with the Eight-Headed Serpent in the future. Don't think avenging Sanben Jinnan means you have avenged everything. The chief culprit behind the destruction of the Qingyuan Family is the Eight-Headed Serpent! He is our biggest enemy!"

Qingyuan Caicaizi paused, a spark of realization flickering in her eyes, and she nodded heavily.

Li Tianchong glanced at Qingyuan Caicaizi, then at Jiang Chen, and gave a meaningful smile.

Ding Ling Ling!

After a while, a ringtone from a cellphone broke the silence, and Yan Hu and the others were instantly alert, their gazes all turning towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen arched an eyebrow, a gleam flashing in his eyes, as he pulled out his phone, took a deep breath, and answered the call: "Hello, Elder Fang."

"Mr. Jiang, we have entered Dujing. The two of them went out to check the surroundings!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Elder Fang!"

"Mr. Jiang, I will ensure their safety as they leave Dujing and meet up with the others. Whether they can safely leave Beihai National is now up to them!"

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, a grateful expression fleeting across his eyes as he softly comforted, "Elder Fang, go with them, please take them back to Flame Dragon, the big guy is still waiting for you to return."

"No worries, Brother Two is in Flame Dragon, and your friends are also there; they will take care of Feng Lin!" a firm voice from Fang Tiancheng came through.

Jiang Chen went silent for a moment, indeed, Elder Fang had also sensed something.

Feeling deeply grateful for the protective hearts of Elder Fang and Elder Li, Jiang Chen also found more reasons why he could not let his own life be wasted here!

"Alright! I'll be waiting for Elder Fang to come!" Jiang Chen declared firmly.

"Haha, good!"

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen turned to Qingyuan Caicaizi: "Mrs. Qingyuan, please call Sanben Jinnan!"

"Okay!" Qingyuan Caicaizi nodded, took out her phone, and dialed Sanben Jinnan's number.

"Doo... Doo... Hello, Caicaizi!"

"Jinnan, I messed up! Cunshang Zhengye has breached the Venerable Realm, unleashed Cunshang Yidao, and Jiang Chen arrived suddenly with five Venerable Realm warriors, they killed Sanjing's group and ran away with Ying Zi!"

"What? What about you? Why did they let you go?!"

Hatred flashed in the eyes of Qingyuan Caicaizi, but she quickly suppressed it, her voice woeful, "I severed my own arm, Ying Zi had old feelings and persuaded him to let me go, hurry and bring people over, I'm now in Cunshang Zhengye's yard, come quickly, don't let them get too far!"

"Okay, you follow them right now, leave marks along the way, I will catch up soon!"

"Alright!"

Qingyuan Caicaizi readily agreed and then hung up the phone.

"He told you to chase us?" Jiang Chen looked at Qingyuan Caicaizi with surprise.

Qingyuan Caicaizi's face darkened as she nodded, "Sanben Jinnan has only ever used me as a tool to conquer the Qingyuan Family, and after learning about the Qiong Gouyu, he informed the Divine Palace to annihilate my Qingyuan family. Fortunately, he doesn't know he has already obtained the Qiong Gouyu, otherwise, he would definitely force me to activate it to boost his power."

"He... kept you just to..."

Pity flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes, a woman, fully aware that her man was only using her, yet, due to hatred, continuously stayed by his side under false pretences.

That kind of torment, Jiang Chen thought, was chilling to the bone!
