49: Chapter 49 Holy Lord's Token, Ruthless Family Protection

"I said... I don't know."

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's face was pressed against the ground by Jiang Chen, and he spoke with difficulty:

"Actually, I have never met the Saint Lord... Back then, I only received a saint lord order... ordering me to deal with the Jiang Family of Jinling... saying there would be a great reward once it was done."

Speaking to this point, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong spat out a mouthful of blood, his face deathly pale.

"What is a saint lord order?"

Fearing he might trample King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong to death, Jiang Chen eased the pressure under his foot slightly.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's twisted face relaxed slightly, and he said intermittently: "The saint lord order is the token of the Saint Lord, and it is also something that everyone in the Huaxia Cultivate world dreams of. Obtaining the saint lord order means one can work for the Saint Lord, which is supreme glory."

"Then who exactly is this Saint Lord? Worthy of you risking your lives for?"

Jiang Chen became increasingly curious about this Saint Lord.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong shook his head and said: "I know that the Saint Lord is an extremely mysterious existence in the Huaxia Cultivate world. As long as you can work for him, he can satisfy almost any wish you have, even obtaining top-tier Medicinal Pill and Secret Manual."

Jiang Chen was shocked upon hearing this.

He didn't expect there to be such a powerful figure in the Huaxia Cultivate world.

Why hadn't Master ever mentioned it?

Jiang Chen continued to ask: "How can one receive a saint lord order?"

"The saint lord order cannot be obtained proactively; one can only wait."

"As long as the Saint Lord notices you and feels you have value to be utilized, he will issue you a saint lord order."

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong still remembered the excitement of receiving the saint lord order back then.

Unforgettable for a lifetime.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen showed a look of realization.

It seemed this Saint Lord was indeed an extremely powerful figure; otherwise, he wouldn't dare say he could satisfy any wish.

"Did the Saint Lord issue you a saint lord order back then to kill my parents?"

Jiang Chen stared coldly at King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong and said.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong shook his head and said with a faint breath:

"The saint lord order was to have me capture your parents and then send them to a certain place, that's all."

"Who would have thought that there was a sudden gas leak at the banquet site, causing a violent explosion, which resulted in your parents being buried in a sea of fire. I didn't complete the task either."

Speaking to this point, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong showed a look of regret.

If he had completed the task of the saint lord order back then, he could have made a wish to the Saint Lord and obtained Cultivate resources.

Unfortunately, he had messed things up, so he didn't dare to mention it again.

"I have already said everything I know. Now can you spare me?"

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong quickly came back to his senses and looked at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen snorted coldly, released his foot from his face, but grabbed his collar and hoisted him up.

"You... what are you doing?"

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong had just breathed a sigh of relief, but instantly showed a look of terror again.

"I am taking you to a place."

Jiang Chen's voice was exceptionally cold.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong felt a palpitation, having a very ominous premonition.

...

Western suburbs of Jinling.

Wanbao Mountain.

Wanbao Mountain is a very famous cemetery in Jinling.

It is rumored that the Feng Shui of this mountain is excellent, concealing wind and Qi Gathering, and burying ancestors here can bless descendants.

Many people in Jinling bury their deceased relatives here.

The wealthy families of Jinling are the same.

Jiang Chen's parents are buried together here.

Unfortunately, it is a cenotaph.

The reason is that Jiang Chen's parents were buried in a sea of fire back then, and their bodies were never found.

Looking at his parents' photos on the tombstone, Jiang Chen felt as if his heart was being twisted by a knife, and his eyes turned red.

And King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong, who was being held in his hand, was so scared that his face turned pale.

"Mom, Dad, your son has come to visit you!"

Tears rolled down Jiang Chen's cheeks, and he could no longer suppress the pain in his heart.

Since getting out of prison, he hadn't dared to come visit his parents.

Back then, he had acted on his own initiative to take the fall for Xu Qianqing and go to prison, which had truly angered them quite a bit.

He had no face to see his parents.

Although the mastermind called the Saint Lord hadn't been caught, at least he had brought King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong was the murderer who directly killed them.

"Kneel for me!"

Jiang Chen violently threw King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong in front of the tombstone and shouted sternly.

"I am the King of Jiangnan, I would rather die than kneel!"

Although King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong was controlled by Jiang Chen, he was still the dignified King of Jiangnan; how could he easily kneel?

He endured the pain and tried to remain standing.

Jiang Chen didn't waste words with him either, directly flying up and kicking him on both knees.

"Crack!"

A sound of bone fracture was immediately heard from both knees, shattering them directly.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong immediately let out a miserable scream, his legs bent, and he knelt with a thud in front of the tombstone.

He struggled to stand up, completely forgetting that his knees were shattered.

"Kowtow!"

Jiang Chen's eyes were cold, and he commanded from a high position.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong grabbed his knees with both hands, looked up and glared at Jiang Chen, gritting his teeth: "If you want to kill, then kill. I, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong, will never suffer such humiliation. Asking me, the dignified King of Jiangnan, to kowtow to two ants? Impossible!"

"Then die!"

Jiang Chen didn't waste words with him, suddenly reaching out and grabbing his head.

In King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's eyes full of horror, Jiang Chen pressed down violently, forcing his head onto the ground.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

Jiang Chen grabbed King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's head and smashed it against the ground again and again.

Soon, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's forehead was oozing blood.

"Kowtow again!"

Jiang Chen ignored him, his eyes bloodshot, and continued to press his head to the ground.

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong was soon covered in blood, seeing stars, and his consciousness began to fade.

When Jiang Chen let go, King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong remained in the kowtowing posture.

"Thud!"

Jiang Chen also knelt down at this moment, looking at the tombstone and saying: "Mom, Dad, the little Chen now is no longer the little Chen of back then. I already have the ability to avenge you!"

"I swear to you here, I will definitely catch that Saint Lord and make him kneel before you to atone for his sins!"

After saying this, Jiang Chen kowtowed more than a dozen times loudly.

Then he looked at King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong, who was kowtowing mechanically to the side, and said with murderous intent: "King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong, how do you want to die?"

King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong instantly woke up, begging for mercy with his face covered in blood: "You cannot kill me. I am the dignified King of Jiangnan. If you kill me, you will also..."

"Don't say you are the King of Jiangnan; even if you were the Saint Lord, I would still kill you without hesitation!"

Jiang Chen didn't wait for King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong to finish speaking, condensed a golden Qi blade in his right hand, and slashed at his neck instantly.

"Pfft!"

The golden Qi blade swept across King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's neck, bringing up a spray of bright red blood mist.

His head rolled off his neck and landed in front of Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen picked up his head, placed it in front of his parents' tombstone, and said with a firm gaze: "Mom, Dad, today I use King of Jiangnan Gu Yuandong's head to pay tribute to you. Next time, what I bring will be that Saint Lord's head!"

After saying this, he kowtowed three times loudly and got up to leave.

After returning from Wanbao Mountain, Jiang Chen walked towards home.

Just as he arrived at the door of his home, Jiang Chen was stunned.

He saw two moving company trucks parked at the entrance of the villa, and staff were continuously carrying things out of the villa.

Gu Ruoxue was supporting Grandma Jiang standing to the side, both of them looking dejected.

"Sister-in-law, Grandma, what happened?"

Jiang Chen quickly walked up and asked curiously.

Upon seeing Jiang Chen, Gu Ruoxue's eyes immediately turned red, and she hesitated to speak.

Grandma Jiang gently patted Gu Ruoxue's hand, looked at Jiang Chen, and sighed: "Little Chen, your sister-in-law's company has been forcibly taken over by the Gu Family, and this villa has also been confiscated by the Gu Family. Even your sister-in-law's bank cards have been frozen."

"Now we are homeless and are about to be cast out onto the streets."

Gu Ruoxue's eyes welled up with tears, and she sobbed: "Grandma, Jiang Chen, it is I who have implicated you all..."
