âNone of you should ever dream about leaving.â Jiang Beishan flew into the sky imposingly, and sonic explosions even echoed from how quick he was.
Regardless of the course of events, he had still managed to achieve his objective, and he could now attack Jiang Chen and Jiang Moliang as he wished. If everything went smoothly, and he managed to get the Sky-Burning Evil Flame back, he could then make a great contribution.
Jiang Chen pointed his finger, and the Sky-Burning Evil Flame immediately surrounded them, forming a wall of flames around them.
Jiang Beishan slowed down mid-charge and started accumulating power. After just a second, he used his palmâs vigorous power to tear the evil flames apart and disperse them. However, when the evil flame disappeared, he didnât see Jiang Chen and Jiang Moliang, as they had already vanished.
Jiang Beishan and his cohorts looked around for them, and they quickly found them on the cityâs wall. At this moment, the cityâs defensive formation started exhibiting its might, and it seemed like the whole sky was filled with billowing waves.
Jiang Beishan assumed that the formation would obstruct the two, but the black-armored guards, who had suffered while facing Jiang Chen, reminded him quickly, âElder, donât take this carelessly. Young Master Feng is proficient in breaking formations, so letâs chase after him quickly.â
Their Celestial Venerable leaders took the lead and chased after them. When they had just started moving, the cityâs formation was already broken. Jiang Beishan could only look on helplessly as Jiang Chen and Jiang Moliang left the city, and he shouted in displeasure, âWhy donât you use war weapons? What are you waiting for?â
âThe western side of the city is against the mountain, thus it isnât equipped with any weapons,â someone answered him.
âItâs surely Jiang Moliang who informed him. Sheâs really a traitor!â
Jiang Beishan shouted, âKill them without mercy!â
In the sky outside of the city, Jiang Moliang turned and spoke anxiously, âYouâd better have a backup plan, or else we will surely die.â
âDid you really assume that I have a plan? Iâm probably just putting on a strong front,â Jiang Chen said.
âThen letâs just die together.â Jiang Moliang didnât think too much about it and was quite nonchalant.
Jiang Chen hadnât expected such a reply. He suddenly stopped and said, âThis place is good enough.â
âWhat?â Jiang Moliang didnât understand what he was implying.
âWe canât shake them off, so we must kill them,â Jiang Chen said.
âArenât we fleeing because we are incapable of defeating them?â Jiang Moliang asked in confusion. A while ago, Jiang Chen had needed her help to escape. Had he managed to get enough power to face the Three Mountains Elders after just half a day?
âYou should distance yourself from me and keep a distance great enough to evade a Tenth Transformation Sky-Burning Evil Flameâs might,â Jiang Chen said.
âWhat?â Jiang Moliang was startled by this, and she understood then why he wanted to leave the city. If he could really raise the flameâs might to the Tenth Transformation level, the Three Mountains Elders would be obliged to pay a grave price if they faced him.
Jiang Chen didnât say anything else to her as he faced the Three Mountains Elders coming at him.
âDie!â They didnât give Jiang Chen an opportunity to speak as they attacked with their complete power. They all wanted to get the credit for killing Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen didnât waste his breath with them, either. He held the Heavenly Fault Sword with his left hand and the Red Cloud Sword with his right. âTwo Doctrine Artifacts!â
After those weapons appeared, the eyes of Jiang Moliang and the Three Mountains Elders lit up. Such luxurious equipment was unexpectedly possessed by just a junior at the late stage of the Spiritual Venerable Realm. It was really unbelievable. However, they quickly discovered that Jiang Chen didnât plan to depend upon the Doctrine Artifacts.
After the Red Cloud Sword was assisted by the Sky-Burning Evil Flame, its blade emitted a sonorous cry, and its radiance illuminated the darkened sky. The Heavenly Fault Sword shone in splendid radiance, and even though it wasnât as magnificent as the Red Cloud Sword, none could overlook it. The worldâs wind had been summoned by those swords and converged there.
âEven a trifling Spiritual Venerable like you wants to fight us?â Even though Jiang Beishan was awed by the swordsâ momentum, he still had disdain for them when he thought about Jiang Chenâs current realm.
âLetâs use our complete power.â He didnât leave the other two people enough time to consider it. He attacked first and used his ultimate technique.
Even though Jiang Yishan and Jiang Dongshan objected, they could only adhere to his wishes. They had known each other for many years, and they were aware of their old friendâs character. However, when they looked at the two Doctrine Artifacts in Jiang Chenâs hands, they suddenly got a bad feeling, but they still could only choose to attack him with all of their power.
The two guard leaders, who had arrived slightly later, were behind them. When they witnessed the Three Mountains Elders attacking, they stopped in their tracks. There wasnât enough space for them to attack unless they ran to the other side. However, since the Three Mountains Elders had already attacked together, it would be needless for them to take such action.
âWind and Fire Swords Wheel!â Jiang Chen also entered Wind and Fire Swords state. The fire was obviously the Sky-Burning Evil Flame, and as the wind blew at it, it formed a shocking fire tornado. As the fire tornado revolved, it emitted a more terrifying might.
It was only then that Jiang Moliang realized Jiang Chen wasnât bluffing, so she drew back.
âAwful!â The Three Mountains Elders, who had used their ultimate techniques with all of their power, realized that the current situation was far from reassuring. However, it was already too late for them to pull back as the fire tornado came at them. They could only choose to attack empty air with their ultimate techniques. They made use of the impact to draw back quickly, and they started fleeing decisively.
However, they had underestimated the fire tornadoâs might. A great suction force emanated from it, and it was becoming stronger as it approached them, which in turn caused the Three Mountains Eldersâ speed to decrease.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThe Sky-Burning Evil Flame... Why is he capable of controlling it freely and with ease?â The Three Mountains Elders could discern that Jiang Chen had managed to achieve all of this only by depending upon the Sky-Burning Evil Flame.
The Sky-Burning Evil Flame was an extraordinary Alien Flame, but controlling it was extremely difficult, as it would hurt oneâs allies as well as oneâs enemies. It had been removed from Alien Flames List in the past because of this. However, they couldnât see its detriments at all while Jiang Chen wielded it, and it displayed its whole devilish might.
âFlee, quickly run away!â The two black-armored leaders looked in shock at this. They found the Three Mountains Eldersâ currently flustered and alarmed expressions quite unbelievable. However, the fire tornado was just before them, and after it neared them, they also felt its blazing hot temperature.
âWe canât escape!â As they looked at the fire tornado drawing closer to them, the Three Mountains Elders realized this.
âItâs all because you are too impulsive!â In the end, Jiang Yishan and Jiang Dongshan couldnât stop themselves from complaining and blaming Jiang Beishan. If he hadnât just charged at Jiang Chen in the beginning, it could still have been possible for them to flee.
âItâs already useless to discuss this now. Letâs use that technique.â Jiang Beishan regretted his actions, but since matters had already developed to this point, he couldnât care about it any longer.
âOkay!â The other two people didnât have an objection to this, and it was especially the case since they could now feel their skin burning. They quickly started using the technique. Two of them stood shoulder to shoulder, and they all stuck their palms together. Their three hands seemed as if they were moving great mountains, and they forcefully struck each otherâs palms. âThree Mountains Secret Technique!â
Jiang Moliang became nervous as she witnessed this technique. One of the reasons why those three elders were called the âThree Mountains Eldersâ was that their names had âshanâ in them, which meant âmountain,â while the other reason was the fact that they had mastered this joint attack technique.
Once the three mountains united, they could face even a Great Venerable. This was the reason why the Jiang familyâs master was quite cheerful when he heard Jiang Chenâs proposition. Even if they didnât send Great Venerables to attack him, the Jiang familyâs Celestial Venerablesâ power could still reach a Great Venerableâs level. Moreover, Jiang Chen was just a mere Spiritual Venerable.
