"Pu——"
Jiang Chen pulled his hand out of Cangben Wuzang's body, then flung Cangben Wuzang's corpse aside, casting a cold glance at the body, a glimmer of puzzlement flickering in his eyes.
Just now when his sword shadow struck Cangben Wuzang, Cangben Wuzang became unable to move. Why was that?
Moreover, the sword shadow had passed through the body, so why were there no wounds on Cangben Wuzang's body at all?
Slowly approaching the corpse of Cangben Wuzang, Jiang Chen knitted his brows and thought carefully. Suddenly, his eyes widened as he quickly took out a Silver Needle and pricked it into Cangben Wuzang's Baihui acupoint on the top of his head.
After a careful examination with the Silver Needle, Jiang Chen's heart trembled. "So it was soul damage! This move actually dispersed Cangben Wuzang's soul, rendering him utterly unable to move!"
So that was it!
Now that Jiang Chen understood the situation, his heart was even more shaken by the third form of Blood Saber.
Boom boom boom!
Suddenly, a rumbling noise arose. Jiang Chen jolted, his body involuntarily trembling. "Is this... the building collapsing?"
Boom boom boom!
No sooner had Jiang Chen spoken than the entire building shook and started to crumble from the bottom up.
"Holy shit!"
Jiang Chen cursed out loud and hurriedly dashed towards the window to leap out.
Boom boom boom!
A massive roar sounded as the entire Longteng Hotel collapsed into rubble!
Fortunately, Jiang Minghui had evacuated the hotel, and Jiang Minglong and others who had run out of the hotel had taken the precaution to clear the pedestrians away from the hotel in advance. Otherwise, the consequences would have been severe!
"Chen'er!"
Seeing the hotel building actually collapse, Jiang Minglong cried out in alarm and hurried towards the collapsing building.
"Don't go over there! You'll get crushed!" Li Wushuang grabbed Jiang Minglong and yelled.
Jiang Minglong struggled but could not break free, his eyes tearing up as he looked at the continuously collapsing building, filled with concern.
After a while, the building had completely fallen, and without waiting for the dust to settle, Jiang Minglong, Xing Fei, and others all rushed into the dust clouds.
"Go!" A weak cry came from the ruins.
Jiang Minglong and Xing Fei hurried to the source of the voice, to find Jiang Chen lying on a relatively intact piece of flooring, covered in dust and dirt.
"Chen'er, how are you?" Jiang Minglong asked anxiously.
Jiang Chen quickly replied, "I'm not seriously injured, go find Medicine Saint, let's get out of here quickly and make sure no one captures us on camera!"
"Oh, okay!" Jiang Minglong snapped out of it, picked up Jiang Chen, and with a flicker, left the ruins, as everyone else hastily headed to Zhu Wenqiang's courtyard.
That evening, the news broadcast reported that Longteng Hotel had been attacked by suspicious individuals who had used explosives, and the heroic Flying Eagle Special Combat Squadron had appeared on the scene, killing all the suspects.
"Haha, this actually got you Flying Eagles some fame."
While watching the news and having dinner, Jiang Chen joked with Long Jianfei.
Long Jianfei responded with an embarrassed smile. "This was also to cover up what you all did. We can't take all the credit."
"I'm aware, and that explains why you Flying Eagles suddenly parachuted into Jincheng. Speaking of which, I owe you one!" Jiang Chen said with a light chuckle.
Long Jianfei hastily waved his hands. "General Instructor Jiang, please, don't say that. We're all well aware of the contributions you've made!"
Jiang Chen smiled faintly and didn't argue with Long Jianfei.
"Young Jiang, what are you planning to do next?" Medicine Saint asked softly.
Jiang Chen was slightly startled, pondered for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "There's no need for so many people to stay here. The Jiang Family Courtyard has already been cleaned up. We'll move back there in a while. Li Wuji, Zhang Wushang, take those martial artists and follow An Hu."
"Yes!" Li Wuji and Zhang Wushang nodded solemnly. After the battle at the Longteng Hotel, they were completely convinced, and at this moment, they felt nothing but admiration, respect, and even a deep-rooted fear for Jiang Chen!
Therefore, even though Jiang Chen didn't say what they were supposed to do with An Hu, they agreed straightaway.
"An Hu, you take them, along with Zhang Long's and Lin Bingrui's people, to find Xuan Long. I've prepared the elixirs for you. Tell Xuan Long, if I don't get fifty Innate Grandmasters, no one is to come back!" Jiang Chen turned his head towards An Hu.
"Yes!" An Hu nodded heavily.
Long Jianfei, who was nearby, felt a shock in his heart upon hearing this. Fifty Innate Grandmasters?! Has this kid gone mad? Could it be... that the Purple Flame Broken Mirror Elixir was really refined by him?
"Captain Long, Captain Long?" Jiang Chen called out twice.
"Ah?" Long Jianfei was a bit lost in thought.
Jiang Chen looked at Long Jianfei with meaningful eyes. "What are you thinking about?"
"Nothing, nothing!" Long Jianfei gave a sheepish smile.
"I'd like to thank the brothers from the Flying Eagle Special Combat Squadron for this time. Here are two bottles of elixir as a token of gratitude. After eating, take a rest, and you can leave when it's appropriate. Your continuous presence here might cause panic, and it would be hard for you to explain!" Jiang Chen took out two bottles of elixirs and handed them to Long Jianfei.
Long Jianfei's eyes lit up as he grabbed the elixirs, his gaze burning as he stared at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly. "Just like the last ones I gave you, three pills per bottle!"
"Thank you, thank you, Instructor Jiang!" Long Jianfei thanked him hurriedly. With six Purple Flame Broken Mirror Elixirs, the Flying Eagle could add a few more Innate Grandmasters!
It seems, Instructor Jiang truly is an alchemist.
…
After resting for one night, everyone went their separate ways.
Long Jianfei and the others left, Li Wuji and the others followed An Hu to find Xuan Long, Medicine Saint returned to Dingjing, Fu Ling'er went back to Dingjing for her studies and to enjoy family life while also refining elixirs, as the Pill Furnace was still in Dingjing. Jiang Chen and the others went back to the Jiang Family Courtyard.
Looking at the empty Jiang Family Courtyard, Jiang Chen couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"I never thought that my Jiang Family would actually..." Elder Master Jiang's eyes started to moisten.
"Grandfather, don't worry. The Jiang family will be lively again!" Jiang Chen spoke softly.
Jiang Minglong also consoled, "Yes, Dad, the Jiang family will be better!"
"Hmm! I believe! With you all here, the Jiang family won't fall!" Elder Master Jiang nodded gently.
At this time, the Jiang family only had the likes of Elder Master Jiang, Second Elder, Jiang Minglong, Shen Xiaoqin, Jiang Chen, Jiang Minglou's family, and Jiang Mingcheng's family remaining. However, the Jiang family now, despite being fewer in number, had the strongest sense of unity since its establishment!
"That..." Zhu Wenqiang, who had followed the others to the Jiang family, opened his mouth, looking somewhat nervous as he gazed at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen asked in a soft voice, "What is it?"
"I..." Zhu Wenqiang's eyes showed a hesitant look.
Woo woo... screech!
Just as Jiang Chen was about to ask again, several camouflage jeeps stopped at the entrance of the Jiang Family Courtyard.
Everyone turned to look, their eyes revealing looks of confusion. Had Long Jianfei and his men come back?
Immediately after, everyone's expressions changed dramatically.
