"Don't come any closer! If you dare to kill me, I'll take your brother to the grave with me!"
The Fallen Angel was in complete panic. The power of his own soul was only at the Early Stage of the Venerable Realm, incomparable to Jiang Chen's second soul. He hurriedly retreated, trying to use Xuan Long's soul as leverage.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a brilliant white light appeared behind the Fallen Angel, alarming him as he hastily turned to look.
The Soul Power Jiang Chen used to probe Xuan Long's soul had not been retracted and had now transformed into a long whip made of white radiance, which lashed fiercely at the Fallen Angel.
A surge of intense white light erupted from the second soul, channeling completely through the soul connection into the long whip.
"No! I am a Fallen Angel, a high-level species; you lowly humans cannot kill me!"
The Fallen Angel cried out in terror, sensing an extreme danger from the energy fluctuation carried by the long whip, but he was unable to avoid it.
Bang!
A blast resounded as the Fallen Angel was struck hard by the long whip, instantly turning into a mass of black Soul Power.
Buzz!
A subtle aura drifted in. As the Fallen Angel perished, the black threads entwined around Xuan Long's soul also transformed into Soul Power, with Xuan Long's soul aura emanating from that misty shadow.
"Young Master!"
The shadowy mist echoed with Xuan Long's shout.
"Try to absorb this Soul Power. It's quite pure and contains some energy. Don't waste it!" the second soul gently advised.
"Yes!"
The shadowy mist responded with a slight tremble.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Xuan Long's soul gradually formed a vortex, drawing in the streams of Soul Power that the Fallen Angel had turned into. As the Soul Power entered the vortex, it merged immediately.
Outside!
The Supreme Emperor and the others were on high alert, occasionally glancing at Jiang Chen and Yan Hu.
Buzz, buzz!
Pure Soul Power emanated from Xuan Long's body, causing everyone to shudder and all eyes to turn towards Xuan Long.
Swoosh!
A small Jiang Chen emerged from Xuan Long's brow, about the size of a thumb, and swiftly returned to his own body.
"Young Master," Yan Hu called out worriedly.
"It's okay!"
Jiang Chen opened his eyes and smiled lightly, "A Long has turned misfortune into fortune. Hu Zi, you need to train well; otherwise, he'll surpass you again soon!"
Hearing this, Yan Hu was momentarily stunned but then relaxed, glancing at Xuan Long with a curling lip, "Even if his realm is higher than mine, he still can't beat me!"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly, not refuting.
Yan Hu always followed Jiang Chen, receiving guidance constantly, making his combat ability indeed stronger than Xuan Long, who had been fighting in the sect's forces.
"Mr. Jiang, what's going on?" the Supreme Emperor asked softly.
Jiang Chen's expression turned serious as he said in a deep voice, "It's a Fallen Angel. There was a two-winged Fallen Angel in A Long's sea of consciousness!"
"A Fallen Angel!?"
"Is it a Fallen Angel from the Dark Church? Do they really exist!?" Yue Tianzheng and the others exclaimed.
"Should we inform the Holy Court?" Supreme Long Huang asked, frowning.
Jiang Chen nodded lightly, frowning, "I'll inform the Pope. Unexpectedly, even before the three major organizations are dealt with, someone's already started descending!"
The Supreme Emperor and others' faces darkened, their brows furrowing tightly. This was really not good news. If people from the Ancient Martial Era descended now, they'd face threats from all sides!
In the subconscious of everyone, people from the Ancient Martial Era were already seen as enemies.
Taking out his phone, Jiang Chen dialed the Pope.
"Mr. Jiang, I was just about to call you! Could you please come to the Holy Court? Mi Jiaro has had an incident. His divine guidance has reappeared and was forcibly stopped by Fa Rang using the three Divine Artifacts. He's now in a coma. Can you see if there's any way to help him?"
As soon as the call connected, the anxious voice of the Pope came through the receiver.
"Okay! I'll come right over as soon as I'm done here. We'll talk more when I arrive!" Jiang Chen replied urgently.
Ending the call, Jiang Chen glanced at Xuan Long, still absorbing Soul Power, and turned to Supreme Long Huang and Supreme Phoenix Luan, "Seniors, please look after Xuan Long. Mi Jiaro's in trouble, and I need to go to the Holy Court!"
"Sure!" Supreme Long Huang nodded.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!
Jiang Chen, Yan Hu, the Supreme Emperor, Yue Tianzheng, and Wu Qianxun all took to the air, leaping towards Pu Minsung's manor where their plane was parked.
...
Gene Organization Headquarters.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
Bam, bam!
"Argh!"
Sounds of roaring, collisions and miserable cries echoed one after another.
Boom!
A massive rumble came from the sky, with a silhouette descending from high above.
Lao Ruisi hovered in mid-air, looking down at the battlefield below with a livid expression, lifting his gaze towards the distant sky, his eyes flaring with furious rage.
Swish, swish, swish!
Several figures flew over from that direction, one of whom, a blond and blue-eyed elder, bowed respectfully, "Master Lao Ruisi, sorry, they got away!"
"Who were those three people who appeared later?" Lao Ruisi asked angrily.
The elder responded solemnly, "One was the Southern Country's strongest fighter, Jin Junming. The woman controlled by Jin Junming is his descendant, Jin Bingyan, mother of Southern Country's biggest business tycoon Pu Minsung. The other seems to be Monte De'er from the last session of the Spa Training Camp, known as the 'Steel Warrior'!"
"Jin Junming, Jin Bingyan…" Lao Ruisi frowned slightly, "Why did Jin Junming control Jin Bingyan? Was that man really Monte De'er?"
"This…" The elder blinked, slowly lowering his head.
How would he know why Jin Junming was investigating Jin Bingyan? If not for having dealt with Jin Junming before and my family cooperating with Pu Minsung's Sangsen Group, I wouldn't know Jin Junming or Jin Bingyan!
"Investigate!" Lao Ruisi glared at the elder, issuing a low command.
"Yes!" The elder responded and immediately flew away.
Lao Ruisi glanced at the battlefield below and, in a flash, charged into the fray, slaughtering members of the three major organizations in a frenzy.
Although the six major powers never ranked themselves, The Crusaders had always been considered the world's foremost martial arts force. Naturally, Lao Ruisi, as the commander of The Crusaders, was dubbed the world's number one martial artist by some.
However, numerous bases had already been uprooted, and many factions had successfully completed their missions. Yet, here he was, due to his oversight, allowing the rescue of a Saint Realm Expert and an Early Stage Venerable Realm martial artist. This made Lao Ruisi's heart burn with intense rage!
"Jin Junming, Monte De'er, I will never let you off!"
