“Huh?! What about this time? I didn’t see you before coming down here,” Xuan Qing continued to argue.
“You people from the Demon Slaying Palace let nearly 1,000 people in every time. How is it possible for Miss Xuan Qing to meet everyone?”
Qi Da grinned. It was not a big deal for him at all. Scheming lights were flashing in his eyes.
Jiang Chen gazed at this Martial Arts Saint. He was about 40 years old and had been smiling since he showed up. The smile made him seem to be an easy-going person.
But Jiang Chen could see that this man was cruel to the core.
“Yeah? Then I’ll check your record after leaving,” Xuan Qing knew he would not admit the truth. She smiled coldly and stopped speaking.
Qi Da showed a meaningful smile when he realized she was serious.
“How can you be so arrogant! It was the Empyrean Goddess who created the Demonic Abyss and the Mysterious Gate. You people from the Demon Slaying Palace are just guarding the place. But you charge so much money and only give us one month at a time. How could you do that?”
A man next to Qi Da swore aloud, losing his temper.
“What about letting you and your family guard the Demonic Abyss?” Xuan Qing said in a cold voice.
“You!” The man was going to argue, but Qi Da stopped him.
“We’d better not pick trouble among ourselves in the Demonic Abyss. This is a great place. We have ten people here, and this place will be better used by us. Maybe you two could go to another place?”
Qi Da told them what he wanted.
“Are you driving us away?” Xuan Qing had anticipated it, but she failed to hold her temper and flew into a rage.
“No, of course not. The thing is we have so many people here. It’s really not easy for us to find a suitable location,” Qi Da looked innocent, as if he was in a quandary.
Jiang Chen curled his lip. He held his tongue.
“Great. Hopefully, you can make good use of it. After all, you don’t have much time left here!” said Xuan Qing.
Since the enemy outnumbered them, the situation was absolutely unfavorable for her and Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen glanced over at those people. Then he sheathed his sword, ready to leave.
“Wait a second. We have something to discuss with this young man.”
Qi Da did not let them leave. He squinted at Jiang Chen.
“What is it?” Jiang Chen responded indifferently. He was really annoyed by the way Qi Da behaved.
“Is this your clone?”
Qi Da asked, pointing at the other Jiang Chen, who had been silent.
In fact, the Jiang Chen he was pointing at was the true body.
The one talking with him was the practicing body.
“What if he is? What if he isn’t?”
“Jealous. This young generation is really different. Such a way is a sure success. Especially in the Demonic Abyss. You’ll yield double during your one-month’s stay here.”
Qi Da spoke loudly. He sounded as if he was really jealous.
“Young man, I’m wondering whether you can do me a favor. Would you impart this theurgy to me?!”
Then he changed his tone and said what he wanted.
“Why?” Jiang Chen only gave him a one-word answer.
Qi Da’s smile froze on his face, but he returned to normal very soon. He said, “Only by sharing such a wonderful thing can you really benefit the Black Yellow Great World.”
“Do we look like your parents?”
Jiang Chen could not hold his temper anymore. He was not afraid of offending this Qi Da at all.
At the mention of parents, Qi Da stopped smiling, “Young man, what are you implying?”
“You want a suitable location, so you asked us to leave. You need this theurgy, so you asked me to impart it to you. What? Do you regard me as your father, so that I should spoil you?” Jiang Chen pattered in a tough manner.
Xuan Qing sniggered.
At first, she had been struck dumb, and then she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
She had found another strength of Jiang Chen’s. He was eloquent.
Qi Da, often called a smiling tiger, was pissed off. He turned pale and then black.
He had never seen such an insensible youngster.
Did he really think Qi Da was only hoping he would help?
Didn’t he know if he refused, he would lose his life?
Qi Da was irritated. So were his companions.
“The young people in this age are great indeed, but they’ve ignored one thing: wisdom.”
“Miss Xuan Qing, in such a circumstance, what can you get by stressing I didn’t leave here again and again? The only thing you can get is death. I’ll probably kill you to stop the news from spreading.”
“And you, you are even more stupid. You don’t want to teach me. Do you think you really have a say in that?”
In the end, Qi Da shouted in a loud voice. He showed a hideous face.
“What do you want then? You want me to teach you in words?” Jiang Chen was amused.
As strong as they were, their methods were all powerful, intricate, and extremely complex.
If others deliberately offered the key information wrong, the consequences could be irreparable.
“You don’t need to worry about me.”
Qi Da had his own plan. His men had prepared well when he had expressed his intentions. They could launch an attack anytime.
“Let’s go!”
Jiang Chen also knew it was not wise to fight them after arguing.
The practicing body gave the order and turned around to fly away. The true body and Xuan Qing also flew away at high speed, holding hands.
“You think you can get out of this?”
Qi Da smiled coldly. He did not believe that they, a group of Martial Arts Saints, could not catch up with those two.
But soon, he found there was something wrong.
The two Jiang Chens were bombing everywhere with fireballs while fleeing.
The demons within a range of 30 feet became alarmed. They swarmed like crazy.
“What is he up to?”
Qi Da panicked. If there were too many demons, they would not be able to handle those.
The thing was Jiang Chen and Xuan Qing would not be able to resist them either.
Weren’t they courting death by doing that?
“The young people in this age…”
Qi Da exclaimed aloud. He saw black dots everywhere, flying toward them.
“Boss, shall we follow them?”
The others hesitated. They started to slow down.
“Of course! We’ll form a war formation. I don’t believe they can last longer than we can!”
At the thought of the magic of One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones, Qi Da would not give up.
“Okay!”
The others thought the same. They had been a team for a long time, so they collaborated well.
Their energies combined and formed an energy entity that looked like a chariot.
It bumped around and kept accelerating. The distance between the enemy and them was narrowing.
Xuan Qing panicked. It was easy for her to get out of this, but what about Jiang Chen?
She looked up. Facing a Martial Arts Saints’ pursuit, Jiang Chen stayed calm. He was just repeating what he had been doing.
One and another fireball fell onto the ground. Many places turned into a sea of fire.
All of a sudden, a fireball fell off a cliff. After an explosion, a great amount of demons flew out of there.
One of the demons was extremely powerful. His scream could be compared to a thunderbolt.
“It’s an Earth Demon!”
Xuan Qing and Qi Da and the others who were following them were shocked.
It was normal that such a great disturbance would alarm an Earth Demon. Nothing seemed surprising.
However, at the thought of the great strength of Earth Demons, Qi Da and his team just could not help but turn pale.
“If we keep chasing them, we’ll be stuck.”
Qi Da’s men were anxious.
“It’s already too late. What is done is done.”
Looking back, demons were densely packed in the sky. There was already no way back. The only possibility to break out the encirclement was to keep advancing.
“Keep going!”
Qi Da was so anxious that even his eyes turned red. Regardless of consequences, he started their war formation. He was going to capture those two before they were completely encircled by those demons.
