147: Bring more people

In the jungle.

The rest of the horses had stopped and were grazing in the surrounding jungle.

The people on their backs had already turned into a puddle of flesh.

The last remaining person wasn't too relieved.

Although he wasn't dead yet, it didn't mean that the other party lacked the ability to kill him.

It was just that he still had value for interrogation.

At this moment, he didn't even dare to flee.

Finally, a figure walked out from the jungle ahead.

"Who are you people?"

Jiang Chen walked directly in front of that person, the two of them less than five zhang apart.

In this instant, that person's mind was extremely tense.

It was Jiang Chen who had launched the sneak attack earlier.

Now that they were so close, the advantage was his!

If he made a move, perhaps he could take down Jiang Chen.

But Jiang Chen had, after all, survived the Qingyun Mountain Range battlefield, so his skills must not be weak.

It was impossible for him to lack even this much vigilance.

That Jin Xuan Guard secretly gripped the hilt of the saber by his side, but in the end, he couldn't pull it out.

"You are Jiang Chen? As expected, your methods are ruthless."

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I am a Jin Xuan Guard of the Jin Family!"

"Our Family Head wants to see you. If you don't want to get into trouble, then obediently come with me!"

That Jin Xuan Guard puffed out his chest.

He thought to himself that Jiang Chen must have seen his different identity.

He was, after all, a Centurion among the Jin Xuan Guards, and also a collateral Bloodline of the Jin Family.

So Jiang Chen was wary of his identity and didn't dare to make a move.

Moreover, Jiang Chen was truly malicious, killing people before they could even announce their identities.

In that case, even if they pursued the matter, it would be useless.

After all, who told you not to announce your identity at the beginning?

Mainly, this person hadn't expected Jiang Chen to be so ruthless, killing his people without a word.

"It is indeed someone from the Jin Family."

"Please go back and deliver a message: if the Jin Family's Family Head wants to see me, then come find me at Yingzui Peak."

"Oh, and this, take it back to your Family Head."

Jiang Chen had long seen that these people were Jin Xuan Guards in disguise.

If they were in the city, Jiang Chen wouldn't have been able to act easily.

So he simply tossed out a token of identity he had found in Jin Zhaolun's Storage Ring earlier, throwing it to the Jin Xuan Guard.

He naturally knew why these people from the Jin Family were looking for him.

Leaving aside others, Jin Zhaolun and Jinlu City had both gone after Jiang Chen, but then disappeared halfway.

To say it had nothing to do with Jiang Chen, no one would naturally believe it.

In the past, Jiang Chen might have deliberated a bit.

But now, with his Spiritual Qi cultivation alone, he had already reached the Earth Martial Realm level.

What was there to be afraid of?

He would take this opportunity to resolve the Jin Family once and for all.

Even if he couldn't resolve them, he would severely wound them!

Given the arrogance of these people from the Jin Family, they definitely wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity.

"This is... the Second Young Master's identity token!"

"You are indeed related to the Second Young Master's death!"

The Jin Xuan Guard's expression was startled, and he suddenly looked at Jiang Chen, as if wanting to apprehend the murderer, but then he suddenly realized that the reason he was alive was because Jiang Chen had shown mercy, and his eyes instantly became clear.

"Alright... you'd better not be playing games with me."

The Jin Xuan Guard hesitated for a moment, then slowly said.

He didn't know what Jiang Chen wanted to do.

Was he trying to surrender? Or was he trying to exchange some information for a way out from the Family Head?

But these thoughts were all overturned by Jiang Chen's next sentence.

"Remember to tell your Family Head to bring more people."

Jiang Chen said.

Then he turned and left.

Bring more people!?

This brat... he's too arrogant!

Good!

The crazier you are, the better!

I'd like to see how, when the Family Head really comes, you'll kneel before him like a dog, begging for mercy!

That Jin Xuan Guard didn't say another word and immediately turned his horse around, galloping towards Cangzhou City.

Jiang Chen didn't pay any attention to these people.

The matter of the token was naturally nothing; even if he was questioned about it, he could just say he found it.

Now he just had to wait for the Jin Family to bring their people over.

He would resolve as many as he could.

It would also save him from having to squeeze them out like toothpaste, a little bit at a time, dealing with the young ones only for the old ones to appear.

Sometimes, it wasn't really Jiang Chen who wanted it this way.

It was just that the old ones weren't willing to come out at first.

At the foot of Yingzui Peak.

This mountain peak in front of him was named Yingzui Peak because its summit was somewhat curved, resembling a hawk's beak.

And there was a section of valley road that could be described as 'one man holding the pass, ten thousand men cannot open it'.

"Who goes there!"

When Jiang Chen arrived.

Two figures immediately rushed out from the forest ahead, one in front and one behind, surrounding Jiang Chen.

Judging by the clothes they wore, they also belonged to the Demon Slayer Guard.

Jiang Chen flashed the token in his hand.

The two of them quickly put away their stances.

"Is this adult Jiang Chen, Banner Leader Jiang?"

Both of them were very young, around twenty-five years old.

One had a square face, single eyelids, and a saber scar above his left eyelid.

The other was more refined, but his resolute face also showed a righteous demeanor.

"I am."

Jiang Chen's lips also secretly curved upwards.

Being called a Banner Officer was quite satisfying.

"I am Zhao Ming!"

The young man with the saber scar on his face said.

"I am Zhao Yong."

The more refined-looking Zhao Yong cupped his hands and said.

"Greetings, Banner Leader Jiang."

"We two were ordered by Centurion Chu to wait for Banner Leader Jiang here and assist Banner Leader Jiang in his actions."

The two of them looked honest and loyal.

Since they were assigned by Yun-jie Chu, they should be trustworthy.

Yun-jie Chu was indeed considerate, worrying that he was unfamiliar with the place, and specifically sent two people to help him.

After all, this kind of work wasn't just about grabbing a saber and charging in for a chaotic slaughter.

Of course, others might not be able to do it, but that didn't mean Jiang Chen couldn't.

"What's the situation up there?"

Jiang Chen asked.

Zhao Ming and Zhao Yong were brothers.

Zhao Ming was older.

Both of them were also Second-Rank Small Banner Officers of the Black Yamen.

Which meant they had the strength of the Houtian Realm Middle Stage.

"Reporting to adult, we have been staking out here for two days, and we did see some people from the Tian Po Sect ascending the mountain."

"And from their appearance, it seems they want to perform some kind of sacrifice, related to the 'Heavenly Mother' they worship."

"However, there is a Formation at the mountain ridge; once you enter it, you cannot find the way up the mountain, and can only wander in circles or retreat, it's extremely eerie!"

Zhao Ming said in a deep voice.

His gaze towards the mountain peak held a hint of severity.

"Adult, I've calculated that tonight is the full moon night. Earlier, we saw people from the Tian Po Sect capture several young children and take them up the mountain, it's highly likely they are going to set up an altar for a ritual!"

"Please give the order, adult, we will immediately accompany you to kill our way in!"

Although Zhao Yong looked refined and gentle, his ferocity was in no way weaker than Zhao Ming's.

"So beastly?"

"Then let's kill our way up!"

Jiang Chen didn't say another word, simply waved his hand, and took the lead, rushing up the peak.
