"Shi Kui, take Mr Jiang out, but make sure to bring him back!" Supreme Long Huang said meaningfully.
Upon hearing this, Supreme Shikui's face turned serious. He nodded heavily, then looked at Supreme Long Huang with a hint of surprise: "You're not coming along? Do you have urgent business?"
"I do!" Supreme Long Huang nodded, speaking softly, "I'll tell you when you return. I'll go back to check some records. The earlier we can prepare, the better. With you there, I'm reassured."
"Alright!" Supreme Shikui gently nodded.
…
About one hundred miles away from the Flame Dragon Territory, there's a small island that stretches roughly a kilometer in diameter.
The island is full of craters and massive trenches, a complete wreck!
At the edge of the island stood two old men, looking sadly at a headless corpse before them.
"Old Bai, don't be too sad!" Elder Hei reached out to pat Elder Bai's shoulder.
Elder Bai shook his head lightly: "I'm not overly sad. If he truly died battling the three major organizations, I would feel proud. But..."
A cold gleam flashed in Elder Bai's eyes: "If he died due to internal strife..."
Rumble, rumble!
The sound of helicopters roared, causing Elder Bai and the others to frown slightly and look up.
"A helicopter from the organization?" Elder Hei spoke with surprise.
Rumble, rumble...
The helicopter slowly landed not far from the two men; the cabin door opened, and Jiang Chen and others stepped out from it.
"Young Jiang? Elder Qing?" Elder Bai and the others looked at Jiang Chen and his companions with surprise.
"Elder Bai, my condolences!" Jiang Chen stepped forward to Elder Bai, speaking in a comforting tone.
Elder Bai blinked, looking up at Supreme Shikui.
"Based on our judgment, Director Tang might not have died at the hands of the three major organizations, so I brought Mr Jiang to take a look!" Supreme Shikui spoke, unable to contain his reluctance as he looked at Elder Bai.
Elder Bai lost his son, always using his son's death by the three major organizations as emotional support, much like soldiers seeing sacrifice as glorious, but if...
Elder Bai's gaze suddenly changed; he turned to stare directly at Jiang Chen with intensity: "Young Jiang, are you sure..."
"Old Bai, Young Jiang hasn't looked yet; what are you asking him to confirm?"
Elder Qing interrupted Elder Bai, understanding Elder Bai's emotions but unwilling to let Jiang Chen be influenced. Given the current situation, the death of a director from the world-leading organization Grand Virtue Gate shouldn't be treated lightly.
"Elder Bai, please wait!" Jiang Chen nodded towards Elder Bai before turning to look at Director Tang's corpse.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
A subtle aura emerged as Jiang Chen began to channel a thread of Inner Qi into the corpse.
Hmm?
Suddenly, Jiang Chen was taken aback, eyebrows tightly furrowed.
The person is dead, so there shouldn't be any Inner Qi reactions. Yet when Jiang Chen injected Inner Qi into Director Tang's body, he felt his thread of Inner Qi fluctuate. A faint Blood Fiend Aura appeared, a reaction occurring after the Inner Qi in one's body has been merged, encountering the life energy of the Gene Organization!
With a stern expression, Jiang Chen directed his Inner Qi toward the body's Dantian!
"How is this possible!?" Jiang Chen exclaimed in shock.
"What's wrong?!"
"Did you discover something?"
"Did you sense the aura of the three major organizations?!"
Supreme Shikui and others asked in confusion.
Jiang Chen glanced at Elder Bai, a complex expression appearing in his eyes.
"Young Jiang, tell me, I can handle it!" Elder Bai's expression shifted, speaking solemnly.
Sigh!
He let out a long breath as Jiang Chen quickly circulated his Inner Qi.
Buzz, buzz, buzz!
Whoosh, whoosh!
The overwhelming aura erupted as Jiang Chen emitted dazzling white light, enveloping Director Tang's corpse.
Everyone was momentarily puzzled, wondering what Jiang Chen was doing.
Buzz, buzz!
Suddenly, Director Tang's corpse trembled twice before settling down.
Under the eyes of all present, Jiang Chen withdrew the aura, and then turned apologetically to Elder Bai: "Elder Bai, I'm sorry, there is no trace of the three major organizations. Old Tang..."
"I understand! I will definitely find out who killed my son!" A glint of intense killing intent burst forth from Elder Bai's eyes.
Jiang Chen turned his face sorrowfully, unwilling to disappoint Elder Bai, yet his peripheral vision constantly eyed Saha and Hu Hada.
Saha and Hu Hada both carried a hint of melancholy; they gently consoled Supreme Shikui, given that Director Tang was also descended from Supreme Shikui.
Seeing nothing unusual from the two, Jiang Chen's gaze shifted as he softly asked: "Elder Bai, Supreme Shikui, this place is so remote, how did you find it? And why are only the few of you here?"
"It was notified by brothers from the Grand Virtue Gate's Yasna Continent region. Later, Stier suggested that the director's death was significant. We should not announce it prematurely to avoid panic and asked us five worshippers to come investigate thoroughly together!" Supreme Shikui replied softly.
Stier!
Jiang Chen's eyes flickered slightly, nodding gently, throwing a glance at Saha and Hu Hada without saying anything further.
Elder Hei, casting a skeptical eye on Jiang Chen, squinted softly, a thought crossed his mind as he whispered: "Old Bai, Supreme Shikui, let's take Tang's body back. Death is significant; it should be laid to rest. Since you brought a helicopter, let's return together!"
"Alright!" Supreme Shikui nodded, instructing Saha and others.
Carrying the body, everyone boarded the helicopter, and Saha and the others departed, while Jiang Chen and companions left by helicopter.
…
"Who would have thought the Grand Virtue Gate lost a director and two major worshippers in two days!"
On the plane, Supreme Shikui sighed aloud.
"Lost two major worshippers?!" Elder Bai and Elder Hei looked at Supreme Shikui with surprise.
"Let's discuss this later."
Supreme Shikui responded, looking at Jiang Chen, speaking softly: "Why did Stier still attempt to kill you when Long Huang reported the Flame Dragon Group's name?"
"What!?"
Elder Bai and Elder Hei were momentarily stunned, looking at Jiang Chen in shock.
Jiang Chen seemed absent-minded, saying: "It's the trouble greed brings. We discovered a Spiritual Medicine capable of helping peak Venerable Realm cultivators breakthrough to the Saint Realm. Perhaps they knew where that Spirit Grass was, hence dared to take such risks."
"What? There truly is a chance to breakthrough to the Saint Realm?" Supreme Shikui exclaimed, recalling how Lu Liya had tried to recruit Saha and the others.
Jiang Chen's vision was still somewhat unfocused, responding casually: "There was, but it no longer possesses such properties. I'll take it back and search for the right herbs to see if I can refine the Unification Elixir, which also assists in breakthrough."
Supreme Shikui nodded gently.
Noticing Jiang Chen's odd demeanor, Elder Hei solemnly spoke: "Young Jiang, are you thinking about Director Tang's body?"
