In Cang Lengyun’s impression, Jiang Jichen’s own Cultivation was hardly anything astonishingly powerful.
Although he was a genius Transcender, his Cultivation Realm was still quite low, after all.
The reason for his astonishing combat record was his reliance on an array of unconventional thods and Secret Treasures.
But now, Jiang Jichen had managed to evade her Jade Girl Palm Technique—a technique she claid could trap any opponent of the sa Realm—using nothing but his own Step Technique.
Even if she hadn’t yet used the ultimate moves of her Jade Maiden Palm, Jiang Jichen surely had ultimate Body Techniques he had yet to reveal.
She had seen Jiang Jichen’s Void Shadowless Technique with her own eyes. He could be a hundred ters away in an instant; it was simply impossible to trap him.
It hadn’t been long since they were teleported to the second level of the Exquisite Treasure Tower. ’Could he have already had so kind of fortuitous encounter?’
The more Miss Cang thought about it, the more upset and wronged she felt.
’Why does that bastard Jiang Jichen get to hog all the good fortune?’
Miss Cang felt it was incredibly unfair. Unable to do anything to Jiang Jichen at the mont, she actually felt like crying...
Well, as the eldest daughter of the Cang Family, she had never felt this way before. In the past, no one had ever made her feel so wronged.
Now, she had t this great villain, Jiang Jichen.
Jiang Jichen, of course, had no idea what Miss Cang was thinking. He only sensed the utter hatred in her palm strikes as they flew toward him with incredible speed.
He was struggling to hold on. Moreover, the presence lurking in the darkness made him extrely uneasy, and he wanted to leave at once.
So, without hesitation, he gracefully retreated, leaping out of Cang Lengyun’s attack range. "Cang Lengyun, I’m done playing gas with a madwoman like you! So I can’t beat you, but can’t I at least run from you?"
With that said, he prepared to use his Shadow Step and make a quick escape.
The lurking presence in the darkness unsettled him deeply. It was best to leave as soon as possible.
As for Cang Lengyun, he had a feud with the Cang Family anyway. Cang Lengshan and the others had tried to kill him several tis, so he couldn’t care less whether Cang Lengyun lived or died.
"Jiang Jichen, stop right there!"
However, just as Jiang Jichen began to move, Cang Lengyun suddenly shouted from behind him.
Jiang Jichen ignored the madwoman. Fearing he’d get tangled up with her again, he didn’t break his stride and kept moving forward.
"Jiang Jichen, are you really this irresponsible? Are you even a man? After seeing my body, you think you can just walk away? Fine! As long as I make it out of this Exquisite Treasure Tower alive, I’ll make sure to spread this story everywhere! Hmph, I’ll sacrifice my own reputation just to see how the world judges you!"
At this mont, Cang Lengyun’s fiery temper flared, and she shouted loudly from behind.
"Damn it, Cang Lengyun, you crazy woman! You win. Spit it out, what do you want?"
Jiang Jichen wrestled with the decision for a mont, but finally stopped.
’I’m destined to beco the most powerful man in the world,’ he thought. ’If that madwoman Cang Lengyun goes around telling that story, how can I ever hold my head up high again?’
Seeing Jiang Jichen stop, the corners of Cang Lengyun’s mouth involuntarily curled into a slight smile, sothing even she herself didn’t notice.
"I don’t want anything. In any case, you saw sothing you weren’t supposed to see, so you..."
However, before Cang Lengyun could finish her sentence, Jiang Jichen’s expression suddenly changed.
Simultaneously, he executed his Void Shadowless Technique, grabbing Cang Lengyun and instantly reappearing a hundred ters away.
BOOM!
The spot where Cang Lengyun had just stood was engulfed in black light, which blasted a dark, bottomless hole into the earth.
Having been suddenly grabbed by Jiang Jichen, Cang Lengyun had been about to resist, but seeing this scene, her face turned deathly pale with fright.
She hadn’t sensed any presence nearby at all. As for that attack just now, she had been completely unaware of it.
If Jiang Jichen hadn’t intervened, or if he’d been even a fraction of a second slower, she would have been the one struck by that black light.
Hit by such an attack without any warning, Cang Lengyun didn’t think she would have had the slightest chance of survival.
So, a mont ago, Jiang Jichen had saved her life.
Even if she was reluctant to admit it, this was the undeniable truth.
At that mont, their gazes fell upon the area ahead of them, and they finally saw the creature that had attacked them.
A massive black python, its eyes glowing with a cold, eerie light, stared intently at Jiang Jichen and Cang Lengyun.
It was as thick as a water bucket and nearly a hundred ters long, emanating a cold, dark aura.
To Jiang Jichen and Cang Lengyun, the black python itself didn’t seem particularly powerful. It was likely just a Basic Level Earth Beast, equivalent to a human with Foundation Establishnt Early Stage Cultivation. However, the black light it spat was incredibly terrifying, containing a Dark Power that seed capable of dissolving anything.
But even so, how could a single Basic Level Earth Beast possibly dare to attack them? Unless...
Jiang Jichen didn’t get to finish his thought. His expression changed drastically, and, still holding Cang Lengyun, he once again dodged to the side.
BOOM!
This ti, the ground where he had just been standing split open, and another black python shot out.
If Jiang Jichen had been a fraction of a second slower, he likely would have been swallowed whole by this black python.
Terrifying, insidious, and skilled at ambushes!
It was the first ti Jiang Jichen had ever encountered such a frightening Spirit Beast, and his expression turned grim.
’Attacks of Dark Attribute Spiritual Power... In that case, they must be drawn to the Darkness, and they probably only move at night. That ans they could be present in any dark place untouched by moonlight.’
As Jiang Jichen pondered this, he completely forgot that he was still holding Cang Lengyun.
But Jiang Jichen, lost in thought, seed not to have noticed this at all.
He might not have noticed, but Cang Lengyun certainly had.
Cang Lengyun felt her face flush crimson!
She wanted to tell Jiang Jichen to let go and put her down, but seeing his serious, thoughtful expression, she couldn’t bear to interrupt him.
’Sigh, that girl Cang Lengyun is actually pretty great. It’s just that sotis, she’s a bit too fiery!’
Rembering how Cang Lengyun had cursed and threatened him earlier, Jiang Jichen felt a pang of guilt and finally put her down.
Then, in a very solemn and profound tone, he said, "I believe I know what these creatures are. As for dealing with them... I can turn them to ash with a re lift of a finger!"
