173: Tenfold reward is still my principle!

Chapter 167: My Principle Is to Repay Tenfold!

In the quiet room, aftershocks from an earthquake suddenly came again, making the entire room hum and vibrate.

However, at this moment, a golden Magic Array was activated, supporting the entire villa.

In the extraordinary water world, earthquakes are quite common, so Beast Tamers' rooms are always set up with reinforcement Magic Arrays.

Jian Qingqiu took a sip from her teacup, her long eyelashes like two small combs. She didn't even look at the slightly trembling house and walls, and said indifferently, "The underwater ancient city is opening, it should be in about two or three months. You should go and cultivate well, and prepare for it!"

Jiang Chen looked at Jian Qingqiu's exquisitely carved face, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Teacher, you said this underwater ancient city can only be entered by Fourth-Level Beast Masters and below?"

"En, what's wrong?" Jian Qingqiu raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen scratched his head: "This underwater ancient city hasn't officially appeared yet, and the commotion is already so big."

"When it fully emerges, the commotion will definitely be even greater, right? It will definitely attract the attention of our Dragon Country's high-ranking officials, as well as the various sea clans in the Southern Wasteland Sea."

"And the personnel our Dragon Country will send out will definitely all be Fourth-Level Beast Masters. Can I, a mere Third-level Beast Tamer, squeeze in?"

Jiang Chen voiced his doubts, which was also a big question that popped into his mind when he felt the earthquake today.

Even a small person like him knew how precious a secret realm that had been sealed for many years was, and others must also know.

The Dragon Country's high-ranking officials would definitely attach great importance and attention to this secret realm. Therefore, the list of Beast Tamers sent out at that time would definitely be exclusively Fourth-Level Beast Masters, and they would be the elites and geniuses among the Fourth-Level Beast Masters nationwide!

Although Jiang Chen's strength was good and he could kill Commander Rank sea beasts by fighting above his level.

But in this world, Jiang Chen was not the only genius; there were other geniuses as well.

There were also geniuses among the sea clans, such as Red Luo, whom Jiang Chen met two days ago at the White Tail Pearl Pond.

His level and realm were still Jiang Chen's weakness.

Therefore, instead of sending a Third-level Beast Tamer genius, it would be safer and more secure to send a Fourth-Level Beast Master genius!

In Yingtian Academy, there were many Fourth-Level Beast Master geniuses who consistently occupied the school's top 100 ranking list!

Although Jiang Chen should be able to make it onto the top 100 ranking list now, he would probably be at the bottom.

His level and strength were there; if Jiang Chen could challenge those above his level, other geniuses could also challenge those above their level!

"Don't worry," Jian Qingqiu gently placed the teacup in her hand on the table: "I will arrange this."

"Alright then..."

Seeing Jian Qingqiu speak so casually, Jiang Chen had nothing more to say.

Jiang Chen couldn't help but look at the quiet beauty in front of him with a puzzled gaze. It seemed Jian Qingqiu still had many trump cards!

But then again, just a clone of Jian Qingqiu sealed in a lake-containing shell could kill a General Rank Red Skull Devil Fanged Fish with one punch. Jian Qingqiu's strength was simply terrifying!

One must know that General Hong Yi was not an ordinary Fifth-level General-level sea clan powerhouse. General Hong Yi was also a well-known figure in the Red Skull Devil Fanged Fish Clan for many years, leading an army to achieve many military merits in the Southern Wasteland Sea.

And such a figure was killed by Jian Qingqiu with one punch. This outcome was not only a bit dramatic but also somewhat frustrating!

After they spoke a few more words, Jian Qingqiu found that Jiang Chen still had no intention of leaving, still standing there staring at her intently.

"What's wrong?" Jian Qingqiu's willow-like brows furrowed slightly.

"Um, Teacher... could you seal another one of your clones in my lake-containing shell?"

Although I can't stick with you every day, it's still good to have a clone sticking around. Whether it's eating, sleeping, going to the toilet, or taking a bath, the sense of security can be directly boosted to MAX!

"I'll set it up for you tonight when you hatch the egg for me," Jian Qingqiu sighed softly.

She had a misconception that her disciple's skin was getting thicker and thicker... Leaving Jian Qingqiu's residence in a joyful mood, Jiang Chen took out his communication shell and looked at it, only to see a message from Lei San, saying that Jiang Henian had returned.

Jiang Chen put away his communication shell and quickly rushed to hug another big thigh.

In the Green Water Bamboo Forest, in front of the bamboo bridge, large toads, each holding a bronze axe in their front claws, their bodies covered in yellow-orange armor and wearing red cloaks, narrowed their two pairs of bulging eyes into slits and glanced at Jiang Chen, then allowed him to enter.

This young man came often, and the two toads were used to it.

Passing through the bamboo bridge and arriving at the villa on the bamboo pond, he saw that Lei San and Zhao Ziyi had already arrived. Jiang Henian was sitting at a tea table in front of a courtyard, seated on a rattan chair, with his eyes closed in meditation, his brows tightly furrowed, seemingly deep in thought.

Jiang Chen's heart stirred, knowing that Jiang Henian must have discovered the underwater ancient city.

"Teacher, I'm here." Jiang Chen walked closer and respectfully said to Jiang Henian.

When outsiders were present, Jiang Chen would call Jiang Henian Principal.

Here in the Green Water Bamboo Forest, Jiang Chen was Jiang Henian's disciple, so he usually called him Teacher.

And if Jiang Henian gave him money, Jiang Chen would call him Grandpa.

Well, clear and well-reasoned!

"Jiang Chen, come, sit down." As soon as he saw Jiang Chen, Jiang Henian's brows immediately relaxed. He first carefully sized Jiang Chen up and down, confirmed that his injuries had fully recovered, and immediately let out a sigh of relief.

When he first heard Lei San report that the mission had changed, he was greatly startled, but fortunately, it ended without danger.

"Lei San and Zhao Ziyi have also just arrived. You all tell me the entire process of this mission again!" Jiang Henian ordered.

"Yes!"

The three spoke in turn, and Jiang Chen also repeated what he had just said to Jian Qingqiu.

When the three were halfway through, mentioning that Jiang Chen, Zhao Ziyi, and their four companions encountered Red Luo and General Hong Yi, and Lei San was ambushed halfway, Jiang Henian's face completely darkened beyond measure!

This unkempt old man with a messy hair at this moment could no longer hold back and slammed his palm on the tea table in front of him!

"Bang!!!"

The palm, containing terrifying spiritual power, fell, and at first, nothing seemed to happen.

But when a gentle breeze blew, the expensive mahogany tea table silently disintegrated, turning into inches of ashes with the breeze!

Jiang Chen, Lei San, and Zhao Ziyi were greatly shocked!

What terrifying control!

The three of them were clearly sitting by the tea table, yet when Jiang Henian's palm fell, the three of them were not affected in any way, nor did they suffer any repercussions!

Jiang Henian's palm force was precisely controlled on the tea table, not leaking a single bit!

This power left the three of them awestruck!

Jiang Henian's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at Lei San, Jiang Chen, and Zhao Ziyi in front of him, feeling only uncontrollable rage!

Too much bullying!

This was truly too much bullying!

The traitor hidden in the school actually planned to kill his three disciples in one go this time, letting the past tragedy repeat itself!

This was completely taking advantage of him!

Jiang Henian was almost about to explode in anger, but with his three disciples present, he still held back!

Jiang Henian closed his eyes deeply and looked at Jiang Chen and the other two with some apology: "This time, it's my fault, Teacher!"

"I should have secretly followed behind to protect you, but because the Southern Border Underwater Great Wall erupted in a major battle right after you left, I was tied up and couldn't follow!"

Jiang Chen and the other two were slightly surprised. So, a major battle broke out at the Southern Border Underwater Great Wall when they left, no wonder the battle zone was so intense.

"Your teacher guarantees you that for what you encountered this time, I will make the Red Skull Devil Fanged Fish Clan pay the price!"

"Thank you, Teacher!" Jiang Chen and the other two replied in unison.

After the four of them chatted for a while, Lei San's heart stirred, and he asked, "Teacher, what was that earthquake that happened at noon?"

Hearing Lei San's words, Jiang Henian's previously relaxed brows furrowed slightly again: "If General Sima Yuan and my judgment are correct, a secret realm might be appearing."

"Secret realm?" Hearing this, Lei San and Zhao Ziyi were surprised, and Jiang Chen also feigned shock.

"We'll observe the specifics later," Jiang Henian slowly whispered: "If it really is a secret realm appearing, I'm afraid the Southern Wasteland Sea will see another bloody storm!"

Every secret realm, whether artificial or natural, is an invaluable treasure.

They areOther Space (otherworldly spaces) that only true high-level Beast Tamers or powerful sea creatures can create.

Things left behind by such powerful individuals are either rich or noble, and extremely rare.

For its own operation, a secret realm will automatically absorb spiritual energy from the void. And after long years of sealing and precipitation, the level of spiritual energy within the secret realm will reach an astonishing degree!

Under the nourishment of a large amount of spiritual energy, even the most ordinary things inside the secret realm will turn into treasures.

And these are all rare opportunities!

Therefore, with the emergence of the secret realm, it will definitely attract the covetousness and increase the number of various forces. Everyone wants to take a bite of the meat and see their cultivation skyrocket.

Humans will not let go of this piece of meat, and neither will the sea clans.

Everyone will definitely fight to the death inside!

"Don't spread the news about the secret realm appearing yet," Jiang Henian looked around at the three in front of him and said in a deep voice: "Lest it cause panic among others."

"General Sima Yuan and I have already reported the situation to the imperial capital, and people from above will be sent to resolve it then."

"The emergence of a secret realm is not something you students can meddle with. Let the imperial capital send people to deal with it, and you can continue to cultivate with peace of mind!"

"This time, something went wrong with your mission. Your teacher will definitely get justice for you and avenge you!"

"Dare to touch my disciples, Jiang Henian, I will make them pay ten times the price!"

"No, the more I think about it, the angrier I get!"

"I can't do anything about the traitor in the school for now, but I'll get my revenge on the Red Skull Devil Fanged Fish Clan right now!"

When Jiang Henian said the last sentence, his body was brimming with killing intent, his eyes wide open, like a fierce tiger choosing its prey: "You wait here, I'll be back soon!"

"Boom!"

As soon as Jiang Henian finished speaking, his powerful spiritual energy erupted, and he flew up into the air, soaring majestically towards the Southern Wasteland Sea, leaving Jiang Chen and the other two stunned in place.

Holy cow, is the Principal that tough?

He said he'd get revenge, and he just went to get revenge?
