"Kid, what do you mean?"
Wu Youliang raised his head and glared angrily at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen was taken aback by the words and asked in surprise, "What happened?"
Everyone paused, realizing that Jiang Chen was just subconsciously speaking to himself, and immediately turned their gaze to Wu Qian.
"Elder Wu, your Wu Family is truly ruthless! To monopolize the treasures in the tomb, to prevent the news of the Wuying Sword and the Sword Canon from being leaked, you dared to let that child Wu Zhen trigger the Sword Killing Array in the great tomb, destroying the entire tomb. This way, you can claim that Wu Zhen also died, and you gained nothing, right?"
A mid-stage Integration Path elder on Wuyou Island spoke coldly.
"We truly didn't know there was such a powerful Sword Killing Array in the great tomb!"
Wu Youliang glared fiercely at Jiang Chen and explained with a grimace.
"Zhen'er also died in the tomb. Does this not prove that our Wu Family knew nothing? He was the young family head of our Wu Family!"
Wu Qian spoke with a somber expression.
"Who knows if he's truly dead or faking it? He managed to appear directly in the stone chamber beyond the Illusion Array path, surpassing the false tomb; could he not also escape from the tomb unnoticed?"
The mid-stage Integration Path elder on Wuyou Island spoke coldly.
The Integration Path experts from various forces all wore cold expressions, their bodies moved slightly, vaguely surrounding the people of the Wu Family.
"What do you intend to do? Are you seeking death?"
Wu Qian shouted angrily.
A soaring momentum erupted from Wu Qian, the dazzling Great Dao Divine Light appeared as if covering the sky, and the majestic pressure of the Great Dao pressed heavily upon the Integration Path experts.
Everyone's expression changed; although they had three mid-stage Integration Path experts and several early-stage Integration Path experts on their side, they had no confidence in defeating Wu Qian.
From the Divine Infant Realm onwards, the gap between each minor realm was like the gap between the Divine Infant Realm and Semi Divine Infant Realm. At the Integration Path stage, it's akin to the gap between the Void Refinement Realm and Integration Path stage. Crossing realm battles can only be achieved by top-tier geniuses.
Among the forces in Shenmu Prefecture, there are no top-tier geniuses; otherwise, they wouldn't be stuck in this frontier land.
"Wine-crazed senior, please uphold justice!"
Chen Zhenhua's eyes turned, looking at Wine-crazed, he clasped his fist and spoke.
The people from various forces looked at Wine-crazed, their eyes showing a trace of hopeful expression.
Wu Qian's expression changed, he looked up at Wine-crazed, a trace of tension appeared in his eyes. If Wine-crazed were to intervene, he would be difficult to handle. Just Wine-crazed alone was enough to restrain him!
Wine-crazed glanced at Chen Zhenhua indifferently and spoke aloofly, "Don't drag this old man into the water, your grudges are your own business, what does it have to do with me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wine-crazed grabbed Jiang Chen with one hand and the still unconscious Yun Tao with the other, soaring into the sky, leaving this troubled place.
...
Wine-crazed sped along the way, utilizing the Power of the Great Dao to cross realms, he flew directly out of Shenmu Prefecture's territory, and only then landed beside a small river.
"Let's heal first, rest here. It's dark now, we'll rest overnight before continuing!"
After putting the two down, Wine-crazed handed Jiang Chen an elixir and spoke softly.
Jiang Chen nodded, received the elixir, and began meditating to adjust his breathing.
After a while, his injuries stabilized, and Jiang Chen opened his eyes.
"Junior brother, how are you? Are your injuries severe?"
Yun Tao had awakened, leaning against a tree, he looked at Jiang Chen with concern.
"I'm fine now, how are you, senior brother?"
Jiang Chen's eyes showed a trace of concern.
"I'm fine, just suppressed by the pressure, the Divine Infant is slightly injured, but resting for a period will be enough!"
Yun Tao shook his head.
"The Divine Infant is injured?"
Jiang Chen was taken aback, and with a swipe on his Space Ring, a transparent long box appeared in his hand: "Senior brother, take this!"
"Is this... the God Concealing Spirit Herb?!"
Wine-crazed glanced at the long box and exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, it's the God Concealing Spirit Herb!"
Jiang Chen nodded and handed the long box to Yun Tao.
"This..."
Yun Tao hesitated, the God Concealing Spirit Herb was truly too valuable, it was highly effective for injuries to the Primordial Spirit of Integration Path experts.
Suddenly thinking of something, Yun Tao took the long box from Jiang Chen's hand and said solemnly, "Junior brother, I'll surely repay this great favor one day!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Tao handed the long box to Wine-crazed: "Master, you take it, this way, your Primordial Spirit injury can be healed!"
"Master has a Primordial Spirit injury?! Senior brother, do you see me as an outsider? Master is injured, isn't it my duty to use medicine for treatment?"
Jiang Chen stared at Wine-crazed in surprise, then his face changed, glaring at Yun Tao with a trace of anger: "Moreover, accepting my Spirit Herb means you owe me a great favor, then I want to ask you, in the tomb, you helped me many times, even saved my life. Should I give my life back to repay the favor?"
"This... no, junior brother, that's not what I meant! I... this Spirit Herb is too precious, even the main courtyard doesn't have it, I... this..."
Yun Tao was taken aback, hurriedly trying to explain, but did not know how.
"Senior brother, do you mean Jiang Chen's life is not as valuable as a single Spirit Herb?"
Jiang Chen's face turned completely dark.
"No, I..."
Yun Tao was startled, his face full of panic and worry, not knowing how to explain.
"Enough!"
Wine-crazed waved his hand, looking at Jiang Chen with appreciation, then turned to Yun Tao: "Yun Tao, I understand your reasons; first, because the God Concealing Spirit Herb is too precious; second, because of your respect for me, thinking healing my Primordial Spirit injury is monumental; third, it's because of Jiang Chen's identity, isn't it?"
As he spoke, Wine-crazed paused and said meaningfully: "The identity of 'Son of Heavenly Dao' makes you address him as junior brother, protect him wholeheartedly, but you haven't truly regarded him as a junior brother, have you?"
"I..."
Yun Tao hesitated for a moment, gently nodding his head.
Wine-crazed turned to Jiang Chen, a hint of a smile in his eyes.
Jiang Chen was slightly surprised, realizing that Wine-crazed's words were not meant for Yun Tao, but for him.
"Senior brother, although I bear the identity of 'Son of Heavenly Dao,' I have never felt superior. Since I have taken Master as my teacher, and you joined before me, you should be my senior brother. If you continue like this, I can only assume that you think I am unworthy of being your junior brother!"
Jiang Chen looked earnestly at Yun Tao.
While in the tomb, he felt some estrangement between himself and Yun Tao, so he deliberately expressed anger to understand Yun Tao's true thoughts.
If there were truly any barriers, he must seize the chance to clear them.
