"Oh, you’re so long-winded!"
Mi Jiaro impatiently frowned at Hu Ziyang: "Can you hurry up! Doubting this and that, why are you so troubleso?"
Hu Ziyang glanced at Mi Jiaro, then turned to Jiang Chen: "Who is he? Why do you bring foreign Martial Artists to handle the affairs of Elixir Valley?"
"You don’t need to know about this. I’m asking you for the last ti, will you speak or not? Speak, and you can stay; refuse, and you’ll be shown out!" Jiang Chen was also impatient, speaking in a deep voice.
"ngzi, just speak! No matter how Elixir Valley’s situation is, we are bound to make a move during this Elixir Summit!" dicine Saint persuaded once again.
"Fine! I’ll speak! It will also give you an understanding of the current situation in Elixir Valley to dispel your adventurous notions!"
Hu Ziyang nodded heavily: "Currently, Elixir Valley is divided into three factions. The Valley Master and Seventh Elder are one faction, the Great Elder is on his own, and the Second Elder and his group form another faction."
"The Great Elder is on his own!?" Jiang Chen was stunned for a mont and spoke in surprise.
"Yes! The Great Elder is actually on his own, though on the surface it seems like he is with the Second Elder’s faction." Hu Ziyang nodded.
The situation in Elixir Valley was indeed complex. After Hu Ziyang’s explanation, Jiang Chen managed to make so sense of it.
The Great Elder pretends to align with the Second Elder’s faction, but in truth, his heart is solely with Elixir Valley. He feigned allegiance to their faction solely to investigate how many people in Elixir Valley had defected to the Soul Devouring Group. It’s just that he didn’t expect this investigation to last over ten years during which he quietly looked after the forr Valley Master Fu Lengjun of Elixir Valley!
"How is Brother Fu!?" dicine Saint asked nervously, looking at Hu Ziyang.
"Brother Fu was implanted with a Soul Devouring seed and has been suffering the agony of soul tearing every day. For over ten years, Brother Fu has been battling the Soul Devouring seed, never giving up!"
Hu Ziyang’s expression darkened, his eyes blazing with fury: "He is now kept imprisoned like a dog in the valley’s dungeon by the Second Elder’s group! Only the Great Elder can occasionally visit him, even I can’t get near!"
"Bastards!"
dicine Saint’s body surged with a chilling killing intent, glaring straight at Jiang Chen: "Young Jiang, we need to rescue Brother Fu, you have to remove the Soul Devouring seed from him!"
"Of course! Elder Fu must be rescued, but not now!" Jiang Chen nodded, then spoke in a deep voice.
"If not now, then when? What are you waiting for?" dicine Saint asked eagerly, desperate to save him imdiately.
"Elder Yao, calm down! Have you forgotten why we ca here in the first place? Is everything we’ve planned for so long, mobilizing so many people, just to rescue Elder Fu?"
Jiang Chen furrowed his brow slightly and said in a low voice: "If that were the case, why go through all this trouble? We could have just let Dragon Saint Senior co along and forcibly take people away! People must be rescued, but it has to be after that one battle. If we all die in that battle, what use is rescuing soone, if not just for them to be captured again and face even more brutal torture?"
dicine Saint paused, took a deep breath, cald down, and nodded lightly: "Indeed, we’ll have to let Brother Fu endure a few more days of hardship!"
"Brother Xing, what do you an? Do you all really have confidence to rescue Brother Fu? If you can, why not do it, preferring to let Brother Fu suffer a few more days while waiting, what are you waiting for?" Hu Ziyang frowned tightly, complaining as he glared at dicine Saint.
dicine Saint looked up at Hu Ziyang, spoke softly: "We are waiting for an opportunity, a crucial mont to fight for our lives, a battle opportunity where even we don’t know if we can survive!"
Glancing at Jiang Chen, dicine Saint regretfully said: "Young Jiang, sorry, I was reckless. You’re right, if we die in that battle, rescuing Brother Fu indeed makes no sense."
"No, what are you all talking about?"
Hu Ziyang looked confusedly at Jiang Chen and the others, frowning deeply.
However, no one paid attention to Hu Ziyang, all falling into silence.
"Young Master, the situation doesn’t seem very optimistic now, should we ask Leng Ming and the others to co over too?" Yan Hu hesitated for a mont and spoke softly.
Jiang Chen gently shook his head: "No, this ti we cannot expose all our forces, even if... even if we fail, we cannot bring everyone."
Speaking, Jiang Chen furrowed his brows even more tightly: "Don’t forget, besides this, there’s sothing else. Didn’t you notice that no one from the Youming Hall has co? Leng Ming and the others must wait until that ti to appear."
"Otherwise, if the Soul Devouring Group understands our true strength now, by the ti of that one battle, they might mobilize an even greater force. The Soul Devouring Group is an international terrorist power, not sothing we, the Fla Dragon alone, can resist, at least not now!"
"This battle, we can lose, because even if we lose, it’s just the end of Elixir Valley and turmoil in the Martial Dao World, but if that one battle is lost, it will doom the entire Martial Dao World!"
Yan Hu’s expression changed upon hearing this, finally nodding heavily.
At this mont, he finally understood why Jiang Chen didn’t want Spirit You and others to co, or to mobilize more people in such a shortage, it turns out Jiang Chen was prepared for the possibility of dying in battle.
And his brothers, they couldn’t beco the forces that could change the battle’s outco, the true battle’s outco still ultimately depended on high-end combat power!
In fact, Jiang Chen hadn’t always been prepared to die in battle. He had been quite optimistic and confident before, if he were prepared for death early on, he wouldn’t have brought Yan Hu and Ying Zi along.
But since he detected the aura of the Eight-Headed Serpent, he had a premonition that the Eight-Headed Serpent would never let him walk out of Elixir Valley alive.
Originally, he didn’t understand why he had such a feeling, but until he spoke with Hu Ziyang about the Divine Soul, he suddenly realized that the Eight-Headed Serpent had suffered from a Divine Soul injury, and if it devoured his Divine Soul, the serpent’s injuries might recover significantly.
Moreover, he also understood why the elders let him off so easily after he had killed Lu Zhengqiu, perhaps it was because the Eight-Headed Serpent had ordered it!
"What exactly are you talking about?"
Hu Ziyang completely burst out, the feeling of being the only one not knowing what everyone else does was unbearable, and Jiang Chen’s previous words ntioning ’just the end of Elixir Valley’ and ’doom the Martial Dao World,’ stirred anger in his heart alongside an ominous premonition.
Glancing at Hu Ziyang, Jiang Chen quietly called: "Elder Yao, you tell him."
