Thump!
Jiang Chen knelt on one knee, his face deathly pale.
That last move had drained all his inner Qi, and now he could only support himself with Blood Saber.
Taking an elixir out of his pocket and swallowing it, Jiang Chen looked anxiously towards the Bloody Radiance.
That move had been an indiscriminate attack, and although he had tried his best to avoid Mengda Ge'er, he hadn't managed to completely miss him!
Whish whish whish!
Bang bang bang bang!
The Bloody Radiance gradually dissipated, and four figures lay on the ground.
On closer inspection, Jiang Chen saw that those Innate Grandmasters had turned into mist and fallen to the ground, while the three Semi Venerables lay breathless, and Mengda Ge'er had fallen beside them.
"Mengda Ge'er!" Jiang Chen cried out in shock, staggering towards him with the strength he had barely recovered.
Jiang Chen felt for Mengda Ge'er's breath, then hurriedly stuffed an elixir into his mouth and took out his sleeve's Silver Needle, quickly beginning acupuncture.
After a round of acupuncture, Jiang Chen pulled out the needles and gently patted Mengda Ge'er's face: "Mengda Ge'er, Mengda Ge'er, wake up! Wake up!"
"Mmm..."
With a groan, Mengda Ge'er opened his eyes.
Jiang Chen, overjoyed, reached out to help Mengda Ge'er up, but his strength had been exhausted during the acupuncture, and despite trying hard for a long time, he didn't move Mengda Ge'er at all.
"Mr. Jiang, leave me, you should go!" Mengda Ge'er said in broken sentences.
"No! We'll leave together!" Jiang Chen said firmly.
Mengda Ge'er gently shook his head: "I can't go. If I leave, they will surely hound me to the end. I'm the only Gene Warrior who survived the No. 3 Gene Potion!"
"You... you never planned to go back with us?" Jiang Chen looked at Mengda Ge'er with shocked eyes.
Mengda Ge'er smiled faintly: "I just wanted to see you all leave safely. Now that they are gone, please go. I'll stay here, be careful, I will not die. I will definitely join you in destroying the Gene Organization!"
"You..." Jiang Chen's heart trembled fiercely, at a loss for how to persuade Mengda Ge'er.
In Mengda Ge'er's eyes was a deep-seated hatred and an intense obsession. Jiang Chen knew that he couldn't persuade Mengda Ge'er. Even if he forcibly took him back, Mengda Ge'er would sneak out to infiltrate the Gene Organization, making his mission even more difficult.
Whoosh whoosh!
A blue and a black figure suddenly appeared beside Jiang Chen, their expressions shocked and complex as they looked at him.
Jiang Chen's expression turned cold, and he looked up with bloodshot eyes at the two figures, Elder Qing and Elder Hei, and said, "Why? I know you've always been around us. Why didn't you take action? Why?"
"We cannot take action! There are unwritten rules among nations. People of our realm cannot casually step into the territory of another country, not to mention take action!" Elder Qing explained softly.
"Unwritten rules! You said it yourself, they're unwritten! Since they are unwritten, what's the harm in taking action?" Jiang Chen roared.
Elder Hei frowned and said in a deep voice, "If we took action, it would draw all those of our realm into the Flame Dragon to eradicate us. Do you really want to see that happen?"
Jiang Chen's heart shook, and he closed his eyes in pain.
"Strength! It's still a matter of strength!"
Jiang Chen murmured to himself: "If only our strength were strong enough, we wouldn't need to worry about all this. If our strength were strong enough, we could openly eradicate the Gene Organization. If our strength were strong enough, who would dare to offend Flame Dragon? Who would dare to harm my brothers? There would be no need for him to risk his life infiltrating that damn organization!"
Alas!
Elder Qing sighed, patted Jiang Chen lightly on the shoulder, and looked into the distance before speaking softly, "Let's go, we need to get you out of here. The old men from the Southern Country are coming. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid we'll be in even bigger trouble."
"Mr. Jiang, please hurry!" Mengda Ge'er urged reassuringly.
Jiang Chen looked deeply at Mengda Ge'er and said solemnly, "Mengda Ge'er, I know it's hard for you, but listen to me, no matter what you become, you'll always be my brother, Jiang Chen!"
"Thank you!" Mengda Ge'er looked at Jiang Chen with gratitude.
Jiang Chen stood up and said softly, "Let's go."
As soon as his words fell, Jiang Chen suddenly staggered and fell to one side.
Elder Qing quickly supported him and checked his condition, then said with a wry smile, "This kid, he really knows how to hold on. He's completely out of Inner Qi and utterly exhausted, yet he managed to hold out until now."
"Old sir, Mr. Jiang..." Mengda Ge'er said, lifting his head with concern.
"Don't worry, he's just drained, nothing more!" Elder Qing spoke softly with a complex look in his eyes, "Kid, you did well. Survive!"
Mengda Ge'er breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, then cracked a small smile, "I'll survive. Just for Mr. Jiang's word 'brother,' I'll make it through. I won't let my brother down!"
"It's time to go! That old man is getting close!" Elder Hei said softly.
Elder Qing nodded, took one more glance at Mengda Ge'er, picked up Jiang Chen, and both of them disappeared from the coast in a flash.
After watching the pair leave, Mengda Ge'er fell unconscious with concern.
Whoosh!
Not even a minute after they had left, a skinny old man appeared on the coast.
He scanned the fishermen who had fainted on the beach and came up to Mengta Ta'er. After looking at Jin Zhengping and the other three corpses beside him, his eyes showed a hint of disgust.
After examining the scene carefully, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he murmured to himself, "Blood Venerate? Or is it Lord Xue? Could this one be real?"
Shaking his head slightly, the old man picked up Mengta Ta'er and disappeared from the coast in a flash.
...
Off the coast of the Flame Dragon Kingdom, the entire elite crew of the Flying Eagle Special Combat Squadron was awaiting orders on a warship in the international waters east of the Dongfang Zone.
Long Jianfei, holding a pair of binoculars, looked out at the distant sea with an anxious expression and muttered to himself, "I really hope those guys don't run into any trouble!"
"Captain Long, who are we here to pick up that requires the elite of the Flying Eagle Squadron?" Beside Long Jianfei, a high-ranking naval officer from the Dongfang Zone, Liu Guangting, looked at him with surprise.
Long Jianfei glanced at Liu Guangting and replied softly, "Commander Liu, don't you know the rules regarding confidentiality?"
"I..." Liu Guangting's face changed slightly, and he shut his mouth reluctantly.
While they were talking, someone suddenly shouted, "They're coming! Captain, someone's approaching!"
Long Jianfei quickly raised his binoculars to look at the distant sea and his face suddenly lit up with delight, "It's them, it's them! Everyone on alert, if any pursuers appear and dare to enter international waters, blast them to pieces immediately!"
"Yes!"
All hands on the warship sprang into action. Cannons, torpedoes, surface-to-air missiles, surface-to-surface missiles, sniper rifles, and all weapons at their disposal were readied.
"Why isn't that young man there? Where is he? Where's the kid?"
Long Jianfei scrutinized the speedboat that was rapidly approaching and his face turned deathly pale.
