Lan Yi and the others were pleased about what Jiang Chen had just said. They looked at him as if he was someone beyond anyoneâs comprehension. They never thought that he would just give the demon souls to them. They fought with Jiang Chen in the battle, but their help was meagre, they just killed a few demons. He and his friends could handle the demons even without their help. Therefore, he was the one that had saved their lives. They felt grateful for it, in return they had never expected to obtain any rewards. Although these demonâs souls werenât high grade, they were still valuable. They could exchange the demon souls with the sect for rewards, exchanging them for necessary items.
It indeed surprised them that Jiang Chen agreed to give it to them without hesitation. It made them feel speechless and also petrified. But, they knew that his generosity was because he didnât need the demon souls.
âDonât just stand there. Donât tell me you guys are not in need of them? Or you want my help to dig them out for ya?â
Zuo Ling Er acted rather maturely, she felt that she was like a senior sister in front of them. Jiang Chen and Big Yellow stopped themselves from turning over their heads just to see her act that way.
âThank you brother Jiang and senior sister Zuo.â
Lin Kang was delighted. Every one of them pulled out their icy blades and walked towards the dead bodies, breaking off the skull and digging out the demon souls. A few of them were elated. Seeing them getting the demon souls outrageously was like obtaining something for free, the rest of the disciples cursed and felt extremely envious of them.
A while later, they had successfully dug out all of the demon souls. Under Lan Yiâs instruction, her comrades walked to Jiang Chen and showed him the demon souls.
Lan Yi said, âBrother Jiang, these demons were killed by you, these souls should belong to you. You have helped us twice. Especially, you have saved our lives this time. I am more than grateful to you.â
âYou donât need to say it. If I said Iâll give it to you means Iâll it give you. If you donât want them, you can just throw them away and see whether the others will pick them up.â
Jiang Chen said simply, he did not value these demonâs souls anyway.
Lan Yi immediately kept all of the collected souls after hearing this, their impression on Jiang Chen rose again, especially so for Lan Yi. His good-looking face and attractiveness was like a devilâs power. In addition, his killing techniques was awesome. How he slapped the Ninth Grade Combat King was also undeniably charming.
âBrother Jiang, youâve saved our lives, we are completely indebted to you. Later, if thereâs any help you need we will do our best to assist you.â
Lin Kang spoke. The others nodded in agreement. They werenât idiots. With Jiang Chen and Zuo Ling Erâs talent, entering the sect wouldnât be an issue. Even those on the Earth Rank couldnât match Jiang Chenâs prowess. They were sure that he would be one of the core disciples very soon. Thus, following him wouldnât be a mistake.
Jiang Chen nodded, he then scanned all forty disciples around and said loudly, âMy name is Jiang Chen, a newly-recruited disciple. I am going to the deeper region of the desert to continue killing demons. You all can follow me and you will have the same benefits as they did. Or we can just fight our battles separately.â
Jiang Chen finished his statement, leading the way to the deeper region. Lan Yi and the rest didnât delay and quickly followed him, leaving the other petrified disciples at the scene.
âShould we follow?ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThis dude is freaking proud despite the fact that he is still a newbie, he did not even put all of us worthy in his eyes. I wonât follow him. It wonât be long before the top geniuses arrive. If he continues to be that arrogant, those geniuses will handle him.â
âI think we better follow him to hunt demons for our benefits. He is very powerful. He slapped a Ninth Grade Combat King and sent him flying away. Those demons just now, I think it was him who killed them. His ability wonât be any lower than those Earth Rank geniuses. Also, he is very generous to give all the demon souls to Lan Yi and Lin Kangâs group. If we follow him, not only can we get protection from them, but weâll also get enormous benefits.â
âThatâs right, although heâs arrogant, he is eligible to do so. Arenât those Earth Rank people the same? Each of them is as arrogant, they did not even bother to look at us. Our roles wonât be any better if we work with them to kill demons. I decide to follow Jiang Chen.â
âYou all go, if you offend those geniuses of Earth rank, youâll see howâs your lives gonna be later.â
â¦â¦..
Half of them decided to follow Jiang Chen after their discussion. The reason why they came to the desert was to acquire demonâs souls after all. In addition, they all witnessed Jiang Chenâs generosity and forthright attitude. If he were one of those geniuses in the Earth rank, they would be ignored.
The followers of the Earth rankâs geniuses revealed cold smiles. Jiang Chenâs arrogance was unacceptable, he didnât acknowledge them at all. He was just a newbie that came here and was trying to convince them to be their leader. This action would definitely lead to dissatisfaction of the top geniuses in the ranking. They werenât people to be trifled with. They knew that once they offended them, there would be no peace in their lives.
However, to Jiang Chen, he wasnât concerned about all of that. He would fight and compete for the path to supremacy no matter what. Whoever blocked his path would have a tragic ending. Now that he had become one of Nebula Sectâs disciples, convincing the other disciples to join him was needed to survive in this big sect. Nebula sect wasnât comparable to a small sect like Single Mysterious Sect.
Even the newbies of Ninth Grade Combat King followed Jiang Chen to kill the demons. Huang Ling Desert is a large piece of land, the deeper you went, the stronger the demons were. If one wish to seek for a genuine and meaningful training, he had to go into the deeper region.
The one who was slapped climbed to his feet. He glared at Jiang Chenâs direction maliciously.
â¦â¦â¦.
*Bang!*
Jiang Chen brought a group of Nebula Sectâs disciples to the infested area of demons. They were like an indestructible rocket, killing every demons on their path. Flames of the battle raged across the land, causing a sudden sandstorm to emerge. Waves of sand drifted in the air, bellows of pain could be heard from the demons. The demons sensed Jiang Chenâs intense murderous aura that rushed to different directions. At this time, Jiang Chen and the rest were situated in the middle of the demonâs forces, killing their enemies with all they got. The enemyâs forces were much larger than before. There were at least three hundred of them that made an ambush. Most of them hid under the sandy ground, making every intruder vulnerable.
These demons were ferocious and violent and with a fanged mouth that kept on biting. Some were covered with lethal poison that made no one dare to touch it.
The disciplesâ faces were drawn, but some became excited and killed excellently.
*Shing*
Jiang Chenâs Fiery Sharp Spear made a sharp sound, every swing of the spear killed many demons. Zuo Ling Erâs speed was at her peak, both of her fists caused misery to her enemy. Every punch of hers blasted every demonâs head.
Big Yellow was much more violent than them, he was crashing directly into them like a solid sharp sword. For every area he passed, limbs flew in the sky and the stench of blood permeated the air.
âMy god! These three are abnormal!â
Most of them had cold sweat running down their backs while witnessing the three abnormalsâ capability. They finally believed that those demons were killed by them. These three were insane, even if there were more demons, it still wouldnât be enough for them.
The strong demons were all attracted to Jiang Chen. The rest were weaker and were harmless to the disciples. The inner-sectâs high ranked Combat Kingsâ techniques of killing could slaughter the demons with ease. They all killed as insanely as Jiang Chen in the battle. The sight was intoxicating.
Their blood boiled when fighting alongside with Jiang Chen. They had naturally fallen into a berserk state.
Within ten minutesâ time, all three hundred demons were wiped out. Dead bodies were heaped up like small hills. Fresh blood was flowing from the top, polluting the air with the stinging smell of blood.
No one had ever dreamt of this scene to appear in their lives. They had never expected that they could get so excited by just killing demons. Obviously, Lan Yi and her comrades also felt the same. The newcomers had an unexplained excitement on their faces. They now gazed at Jiang Chen with fear and respect. They felt that sometimes being convinced was so simple.
Besides Jiang Chen, Zuo Ling Er and Big Yellow also made everyone surprised. A twelve-year-old girl could actually be so powerful? They found it hard to swallow that fact. And also, that dogâs head was as hard as a golden steel.
âYou all better clear off the remaining dead bodies, dig out all the demons souls. There isnât a need to scramble for it, the demon souls belong to those who can get them first.â
Jiang Chen said to the everyone. This time, he only retrieve the demon souls of the Ninth Grade Demon King, ignoring the Eighth Gradesâ and below.
Delight were on all of their faces. It seemed that this was the time where they were all convinced by Jiang Chen. They felt extremely lucky that they decided to follow him and obtain so many demonâs souls. They were very sure that if they werenât following him, the emergence of demons in the desert wouldnât be this much even if they stayed there without him for ten days.
