Dragon-Marked War God
chapter-109

Wang Yun really felt like he had struck gold. At this point in time, his respect and admiration towards Jiang Chen was endless like a river’s stream.

Lucky, he was incredibly lucky. If he hadn’t met Jiang Chen, then he would surely have continued cultivating the ‘Cloudy Rock Skill’ until psychosis took over and he died.

Looks like a kind-heart could earn good rewards. He was behaving pretty well in front of senior disciple Jiang today, and because of that, he was lucky enough to receive guidance from senior disciple Jiang. Not only did he save his life, his future would be limitless as well.

The only thing that puzzled Wang Yun was, Jiang Chen, at such a young age, why did he have the abilities to point out his problems with just a single look? This really puzzled him.

But in the end, Wang Yun just gave credit to his genius talent. In this world, there were many items and people that simply could not be measure by normal standards.

“Stand up. This place isn’t bad, I am very satisfied with it. You deserved my guidance.”

Jiang Chen said. He was portraying an aura of someone from the top. This kind of noble and gracious manner could easily make anyone submit to him.

“Damn, what kind of monster is this guy?”

Big Yellow muttered. The more he followed Jiang Chen, the more mysterious he found Jiang Chen to be.

“Thank you, senior disciple Jiang!”

Wang Yun stood up from the ground, his face carried an expression of gratitude.

“En, you can leave now. Remember, if there’s anything in the sect in the future, come here and inform me.”

Jiang Chen said.

“Alright. I will not disturb senior disciple Jiang and senior disciple Yan’s rest.”

Wang Yun cupped his fists, then turned around and left. This guy was jumping all the way down as he descended the mountain. After obtaining the ‘Cloudy Rock Skill’, this was Wang Yun’s happiest moment.

Big Yellow, while wiggling his tail, slowly started walking out from the courtyard.

“Stop there, Big Yellow, where are you going?”

Jiang Chen squinted his eyes.

“Strolling around. Staying here would be too boring.”

Big Yellow said with a grin on his face.

“No way, just stay here, you’re not allowed to go anywhere.”

Jiang Chen berated. If he let this dog out, perhaps it wouldn’t take long before the entire Black Sect turned chaotic.

“Fuck! I, your father, was going to check if there were any treasures in this Black Sect!”

Big Yellow was not happy.

“If that’s the case, I won’t let you out. You better stay next to me and behave yourself. From now on, wherever I go, you will follow.”

Jiang Chen said. This dog’s ability to sense treasure was the best, and the Black Sect, as one of the four big sects, was sure to have a lot of treasures. If he allows this dog out and cause losses for the Black Sect, then he wouldn’t be able to continue staying here.

“Damn you, how dare you limit my freedom? Damn it! I suddenly feel sleepy, let me sleep first.”

Big Yellow felt depressed. He angrily walked into a room. However, Jiang Chen could clearly see that when Big Yellow entered the room, his body had started glowing in a golden light.

“Don’t tell me this dog is going to break through again? Just by sleeping, he is able to level up… What a weirdo.”

Jiang Chen could still remember, the last time Big Yellow broke through, he was still sleeping. And just now, Jiang Chen could clearly feel the restless Yuan energy within his body; this was a symptom that he was about to break through.

Jiang Chen sighed. The heir of a Divine Demon Beast like Big Yellow always possessed some advantages that no one else could have. You never really knew when Big Yellow was about to break through. And after he broke through, then a new powerful innate ability would also awaken.

“Xiao Yu, do you feel tired after following me?”

Jiang Chen held Yan Chen Yu’s hand and asked gently. Every since they left Red City and up until now, Yan Chen Yu had always followed him around. She had gone through continuous battles and killing, and because of the intense atmosphere, Jiang Chen had rarely taken the time to take care of Yan Chen Yu.

“I’m not tired. As long as I can be by Big Bro Jiang Chen’s side, Xiao Yu doesn’t fear anything. Besides, Big Bro Jiang Chen has introduced me to another kind of life that I previously would have never dared imagine! This is really exciting!”

Yan Chen Yu said with a playful smile. This kind of life was something she would never have dreamed about. If it wasn’t for her following Jiang Chen, even if her Nine Yin Meridians had successfully awakened, she would still be a little princess within Red City.

“Xiao Yu, Big Bro Jiang Chen is going to walk an unusual path, and we will experience more of this kind of life in the future. You possess the Nine Yin Meridians, and you’re destined to walk an extraordinary path, so cultivate with your best effort. Once I finish my journey, I will marry you.”

Jiang Chen said with a smile on his face. The path he wanted to walk was one only he himself knew. This was a path destined to be filled with slaughter and the blood of all his enemies. The first thing he wanted to do after being reborn was reach his previous peak level, and then enter the legendary Realm of Immortals.

In his past life, he had used every single drop of his blood to break open the door leading to the Realm of Immortals, but he never had a chance to enter it, and this was his biggest regret. However, he now had the chance to do so. Jiang Chen would never give up this opportunity.

Of course, it was still too early to talk about the Realm of Immortals right now. The rebirth was just a new beginning. Not to mention the Realm of Immortals, even the time when he could step onto the land of the Divine Continent was still far from here.

“En.”

Yan Chen Yu was feeling shy. Ever since Jiang Chen had helped her awaken her Nine Yin Meridians, Yan Chen Yu had given herself to Jiang Chen. Right now, when she heard Jiang Chen say he was going to marry her, it was hard for her not to feel joy.

“Xiao Yu, how much of the ten thousand year old Freezing Crystal have you absorbed?”

Jiang Chen asked.

“I have absorbed about one third of it, and I am preparing to enter secluded cultivation and absorb the rest of it with all my effort. I want to break through to the Late Mortal Core realm as soon as possible!”

Yan Chen Yu said.

“Alright. The Black Sect’s condition is pretty suitable for cultivation. If you have nothing else to do, then you should just stay here and cultivate in the future.”

Jiang Chen said with a hint of concern. At the same time, he was astonished by her Divine Body’s cultivation speed. Ever since Yan Chen Yu’s Nine Yin Meridians had awoken, her cultivation realm had advanced swiftly and vigorously, and now she was going to use the ten thousand year old Freezing Crystal to break through to the Late Mortal Core realm. This kind of speed, ordinary people could only feel envy and shame.

Big Yellow had already gone to sleep, and Yan Chen Yu had entered another room and begun her secluded cultivation. Jiang Chen was sitting alone next to a stone table within the courtyard. With a calm and relaxed mind, he was enjoying the cold breeze sweeping through the mountains and rivers. His soul energy and Divine Sense was hovering around within the courtyard, indulging himself and feeling the existence of nature.

As a cultivator, depending solely on cultivation was not enough. In the path of cultivation, insight was the most important element. The Mortal Core realm was only one of the foundation realms, and one was still far away from understanding the importance of insight at this stage. Once the cultivation realm passed the Combat Soul realm, and reached the Combat King realm, insight became extremely important. A Combat King warrior could control the Dimensional Laws and stand high above the masses, the cultivation realms beneath simply couldn’t be compared with this realm.

Evening!

Wang Yun came once again. Together with him was Huang Zheng and the other disciples Jiang Chen had encountered earlier, including the three guarding disciples who had been beaten so much their heads started resembling pig heads.

“Wang Yun, what is this about?”

Jiang Chen glared at the group and asked indifferently.

“All of you bastards, hurry up and apologize to senior disciple Jiang!”

Wang Yun hooted at these disciples.

“Senior disciple Jiang, we were blinded, we didn’t know it was you when we offended your dignity! We hope senior disciple Jiang can forgive us!”

Huang Zheng bowed deeply towards Jiang Chen.

“That’s right senior disciple Jiang, we were all blinded, and we couldn’t recognize Mt. Tai! We really hope senior disciple Jiang can forgive us, and not to take it to heart.”

“It was all our fault, senior disciple Jiang, please punish us as you see fit!”

…………

Everyone spoke and stated their stand. The guard trio who had their faces bashed in kneeled down on the ground and started crying their hearts out. It hurts, it hurts so fucking much.

Looking at what had happened, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but laugh. He hadn’t taken this matter to heart, but these disciples had become so restless that they had even come here to apologize to him. However, after giving it some thought, Jiang Chen finally understood why they behaved like this. His reputation was there, and he had a predetermined fight with Nan Bei Chao in one year. He was considered the Black Sect’s representative. These men had offended him, so they would surely suffer torture from Jiang Chen’s future.

“Senior disciple Jiang, this is a gift from of all of them! I’ve counted, there’s a total of 3000 Mortal Restoration Pills in here!”

Wang Yun grabbed a storage bag and handed it over to Jiang Chen.

3000 Mortal Restoration Pills, this was nothing much for Jiang Chen. However, for these disciples, it was actually a huge amount, especially for those novice disciples. They weren’t particularly wealthy before this, and these 3000 Mortal Restoration Pills could be considered all their fortune. From this, one could easily tell that they were sincerely apologizing to Jiang Chen.

“I never took today’s events to heart, so you guys don’t need to take it to heart either. As for these Mortal Restoration Pills, I don’t think you’re all that wealthy, so just take them back.”

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

“Senior disciple Jiang, please accept these Mortal Restoration Pills. If you don’t, they won’t be able to feel peace in their minds.”

Wang Yun said.

“That’s right, senior disciple Jiang! This is all our fortune, and if you think it is too little, I, Huang Zheng will try my best to get more for you!”

Huang Zheng said again.

Jiang Chen smiled. He knew these men had misunderstood him, therefore he grabbed the storage bag and asked, “Fine, I’ll accept these Mortal Restoration Pills. What’s your name?”

Jiang Chen looked at Huang Zheng.

“My name is Huang Zheng!”

Huang Zheng hurriedly replied.

“Come over here.”

Jiang Chen waved his hand.

Huang Zhen didn’t dare show any neglect as he hurriedly walked over to Jiang Chen.

“Huang Zheng, you should all know my approach by now. That’s right, I fought three battles during the Qi Province competition, and I killed three men, including Ling Ao and Li Wu Shuang. I, Jiang Chen am cruel, and I never show any mercy to my enemies. However, I would never do so to my own friend. I can’t blame any of you for what happened today, after all, none of you knew me before this. Take these Mortal Restoration Pills and distribute them among all your brothers.” [1]

Jiang Chen pushed the storage bag to Huang Zheng. He had seen these men’s sincerity. Besides, he had a good impression of the Black Sect, these Mortal Restoration Pills weren’t a big amount in his eyes, but to these disciples, it was very important.

“Senior disciple Jiang, this… this……”

Suddenly, Huang Zheng was at a loss for words. He never expected Jiang Chen to forgive them so easily, and even return their Mortal Restoration Pills.

“Senior disciple Jiang is a kind person, all of you should be grateful for his great kindness! You all better help senior disciple Jiang in the future with sincere hearts!”

Wang Yun said. All of these disciples were so touched that they started crying. They thought to themselves that they had been wrong about senior disciple Jiang; he was actually a simple and straightforward man to his own friends. What’s more important was that senior disciple Jiang had actually treated them as his friends.
