Divine War Pill Emperor

With a cold snort, a figure in a kasaya flew in from outside.

Upon seeing the newcomer, the expressions of Huo Wu, Da Pao, Cao Yang, and the others changed drastically.

They gasped in shock.

”National Preceptor.”

That’s right. The newcomer was none other than the National Preceptor of the Fire Sparrow Kingdom, Master Yuan Hui.

He was the first to charge into the Lin Family Manor.

He had even injured the Golden-haired Zombie King.

Master Yuan Hui swept a cold gaze over the group and sneered, ”So you really were hiding here. Excellent. Since you’re all here, I’ll round you up in one fell swoop.”

As he spoke, numerous Kingdom Guards charged in.

Each guard was exceptionally powerful.

They surrounded the entire room.

Huo Wu and the others had wanted to resist, but seeing the situation, they knew it was futile. Master Yuan Hui was an expert at the Peak of Martial Arts Nine Heavens, a level infinitely close to the Martial Emperor realm.

He was far beyond their ability to resist.

They could only give up on resisting.

”Seize them,” Master Yuan Hui shouted.

The guards moved forward, sealed the Cultivation of Huo Wu and the others, and bound them on the ground.

Even the Golden-haired Zombie King was unable to escape.

As for Zhan Yang, JinLing, and the rest, they were still cultivating in the secret room and had not emerged.

However, it was only a matter of time before the guards found them.

Mr. Jiao, who had been standing guard outside, was also unfortunately captured.

After everyone had been captured, it wasn’t long before Wen Shixuan, Wen Shixi, and Sovereign Wen all entered the room.

”Have you captured them all?” Sovereign Wen asked.

Meanwhile, Wen Shixuan hurriedly scanned the room, and his expression suddenly changed. ”This is bad! That Jiang Chen isn’t here.”

Master Yuan Hui took a headcount and, sure enough, found that Jiang Chen was missing.

In that instant, a cold glint flashed across his face.

He walked up to Huo Wu and the others.

He demanded, ”Speak! Where is Jiang Chen?”

To put it bluntly, Huo Wu and the others were expendable, but Jiang Chen was different.

Not only did Jiang Chen possess the Black Fire—which even Sovereign Wen coveted—he was also the Third Prince’s most trusted confidant. They would absolutely not let him get away.

”I don’t know,” Huo Wu said coldly.

She knew escape was likely impossible, so she resolved to say nothing.

Of course, they didn’t actually know where Jiang Chen had gone either.

”Stubborn till the end,” Master Yuan Hui snorted coldly.

He looked at the others.

His face twisted viciously. ”If you don’t tell me Jiang Chen’s whereabouts, I will kill you one by one.”

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen was rushing back toward the city.

When he charged through the city gates, Grand General Ming Chang was still standing guard.

He was injured, however, and his expression changed drastically when he saw Jiang Chen returning to the city.

”You, kid...”

He had just started to speak, but Jiang Chen shot him a sudden glare.

”And?”

Grand General Ming Chang nearly choked.

Not long ago, one of Jiang Chen’s strange bombs had nearly killed him.

Seeing Jiang Chen now, Grand General Ming Chang was instantly terrified.

The kid’s Cultivation wasn’t high, but his methods were terrifying.

He trembled and immediately shut his mouth.

’Trying to capture Jiang Chen now is simply impossible.’

It would be impossible for Grand General Ming Chang to get revenge for his brother.

He knew what was good for him, and hurriedly bowed and scraped, saying, ”It’s nothing, nothing...”

Jiang Chen snorted, ignored Grand General Ming Chang, and quickly walked away.

Only when Jiang Chen’s figure disappeared from sight did Grand General Ming Chang finally breathe a sigh of relief.

He didn’t remain idle, however. He hurriedly ordered a guard beside him, ”Quick! Report to the Sovereign that Jiang Chen has entered the city.”

SWOOSH!

Jiang Chen moved with incredible speed. With the Black Fire Crow by his side, he used its Celestial Eye to see that the manor was completely surrounded and that Huo Wu and the others were in extreme danger.

Fortunately, he wasn’t far away. Soon, Jiang Chen appeared outside the Lin Family Manor.

He saw that the outside was surrounded by countless Kingdom Guards.

Jiang Chen’s expression turned grim.

”Who’s there?”

Seeing Jiang Chen, Kingdom Guards appeared one after another, blocking his path.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly.

Without a word, a Thunder Pill appeared in his hand.

He threw it directly at the group of charging guards.

The guards were confused.

They watched the small sphere rumble across the ground, quickly rolling to the feet of the first guard.

Surprised, the guard was about to bend down to see what the strange object was.

But in the next instant, they found out exactly what it was.

BOOM!

A massive explosion erupted outside the Lin Family Manor, sending up a mushroom cloud as the very earth trembled.

The power of the Thunder Pill was clear to see.

As for Jiang Chen, he had already donned his Demon-Defying Armor to withstand the force of the blast.

”AHHHH...”

A dozen miserable screams pierced the dark night.

The Kingdom Guards were left either dead or grievously wounded.

Chaos erupted outside.

The surviving guards stared at Jiang Chen in terror.

’This guy sets off bombs without a word of warning!’

”Now, you should know who I am.”

After speaking, Jiang Chen saw that the guards at the manor entrance had long since fled in terror. With a flash, he rushed inside.

Behind him, countless guards immediately gave chase, rushing into the manor after him.

Back in the room, Master Yuan Hui had been about to interrogate Huo Wu and the others, and had even prepared instruments of torture.

Suddenly, he heard a violent roar from outside, and the buildings within the manor began to shake.

”This is bad! There’s an enemy outside!”

Master Yuan Hui was greatly alarmed.

’An explosion this violent must be the attack of, at the very least, a Martial Arts Sect master!’

He hurriedly ordered some men to watch Huo Wu and the others, then rushed out with Sovereign Wen, Wen Shixuan, and Wen Shixi to check on the situation.

Just as they stepped outside, they saw a young man striding toward them.

Seeing that figure, Wen Shixuan, Wen Shixi, Sovereign Wen, and Master Yuan Hui were all stunned.

Then, an inexplicable joy washed over them.

Wen Shixuan laughed heartily. ”Jiang Chen, so you didn’t run. Excellent! It’s good that you’ve come back.”

Master Yuan Hui also sneered, ”You’ve returned at just the right time. We were just looking for you.”

”Jiang Chen, the others have already been captured. You should surrender without a fight.”

”Save yourself the trouble.”

Jiang Chen smiled faintly.

He seemed completely unfazed, despite facing so many experts.

He knew the enemy had Huo Wu and the others under control, but he remained calm and composed.

”Weren’t you looking for me? Now that I’m here, let the others go.”

Master Yuan Hui laughed.

”Kid, forget the others. We’re capturing you, too. You traitors, following the Third Prince in his foolish attempt to usurp the throne... there is only one end for you, and that is death.”

With that, Master Yuan Hui waved his hand.

Soon, Huo Wu and the others were dragged over by the guards, along with the Golden-haired Zombie King and Mr. Jiao.

Seeing Jiang Chen, Mr. Jiao shouted, ”Young Master, run! Don’t worry about us! Our lives aren’t worth anything!”

Huo Wu also urged him, ”Jiang Chen, just go! Don’t worry about us.”

”The worst that can happen is death.”

”You have to go save the Third Prince!”
