Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 935: Chapter 938: The Black-Faced

”Sheep for sale?”

Xing Fei raised her eyebrows, suddenly realized what was going on, and looked at An Long with a smile, ”An Long, are you planning to sell me to Li’er to warm his bed?”

”Haha, well...” An Long was about to speak when he suddenly felt a chill from two directions. Turning his head, he saw Mengte De’er cracking his knuckles and Xing Fei rolling up her sleeves.

”Hey, hey, hey! This is just to pass the checkpoint, you two don’t take it seriously!” An Long hurriedly explained.

”I am taking it seriously!” Xing Fei glared at him fiercely, staring menacingly at An Long; ”Thinking of selling me? An Long, you must be itching for a beating!”

”No... Young Master...” An Long smiled bitterly as he looked at Jiang Chen in the rearview mirror.

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, turned his head, and ignored An Long.

Their joking around like this proved that their relationship was quite good; otherwise, An Long, who had already reached the Semi Venerable Venerable Realm, wouldn’t need to be afraid of Xing Fei and Mengte De’er, who were only at the Innate Peak, and Jiang Chen, of course, wouldn’t spoil their fun.

”It’s over! It’s over!” Seeing Jiang Chen ignoring him, An Long murmured with a gloomy face, ”The formidable duo is back in the game!”

Pfft!

”Haha!”

Everyone burst out laughing.

”An Long, is that Li’er the nephew of Wu Yati?” Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, then spoke.

An Long’s expression turned serious, and he nodded slightly, ”Yes, Young Master, he is Wu Yati’s nephew. He just said that tonight, Ge’er Te will be dining at Wu Yati’s place; it seems they are planning another raid on that diamond mine!”

”I heard that, Ge’er Te, instead of quietyl staying at the Ge’er Family, he dares to come out!” A cold glint flashed across Jiang Chen’s eyes as he spoke softly, ”What’s the situation like now?”

”Not good!”

An Long shook his head lightly, frowning, ”The diamond mine is within Tamwood Country’s territory. Although we have mining rights, we still need Wu’er Ti’s cooperation. But he has been stalling us and secretly negotiating with Ge’er Te. Recently, their movements have been increasingly frequent, it seems they’re close to an agreement. Young Master, shall we just take over Tamwood?”

”Take over?” Jiang Chen paused, looking at An Long in surprise.

An Long whispered, ”Tamwood isn’t really a country, but was conquered by Wu Yati. Originally, it was a slum. After Wu Yati conquered it, he built a city. Despite it being called a country, it’s smaller than a county-level city in the Flame Dragon Kingdom. Tamwood consists of only three cities, which are basically like three large towns.”

”I see!”

Jiang Chen nodded, pondered for a moment, and then spoke softly, ”Let’s keep that as our last resort. If we take over this place, we will need to station our people here. Although our Flame Dragon has grown significantly in numbers, reaching about two thousand, conquering this place will greatly reduce our mobility. This will make us a target for the Fallen Angels!”

”But even if we snatch the diamond mine now, the Fallen Angels will attack, right? The diamond mine can’t be moved.” Xing Fei spoke with some worry.

”It’s different!”

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, ”This diamond mine is being mined in collaboration with the Xi’er Group. According to our investigation, the Xi’er Group is a secret pawn of the Chaide Family. A seasoned mercenary group like the Fallen Angels must be aware of this. As long as we keep a tight grip on the Xi’er Group, the Fallen Angels wouldn’t dare touch the diamond mine!”

”The Chaide Family?!” Xing Fei exclaimed, then relaxed, ”Then there’s no problem with this diamond mine!”

”Well then, aren’t you meeting with Li’er tomorrow? Try to get Wu Yati to come along too, and I’ll have a talk with him!” Jiang Chen spoke softly.

”That should be easy, Wu Yati is also a wily ghost; as long as he knows...” An Long glanced at Xing Fei, who glared at him fiercely, instantly making him shut his mouth.

”Then let’s enjoy our time in Longjiang City today.” Jiang Chen smiled faintly.

”Big brother, don’t we need to figure out a way to notify Wu Yati?” Xing Fei looked puzzledly at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen shook his head gently, ”This city isn’t that big; if a beautiful stranger appears, news should reach Wu Yati quickly without us notifying him. If Li’er finds out about us notifying Wu Yati, An Long won’t be able to explain himself there. Since we have such a source of information, we need to make sure we use it well!”

Xing Fei nodded in understanding.

”An Long, tell us about Wu Yati and Tamwood!” Jiang Chen spoke softly.

”Alright!” An Long responded and began to speak softly.

Longjiang City was built by Wu Yati ten years ago. He was ambitious at the beginning, but reality poured cold water on him.

Wu Yati is not from Diamond Country; he’s from the Northern Alliance and was once a prince in one of its countries. His country was destroyed by a powerful force, and only he, the youngest prince, survived.

A team of his Royal Family’s knights escorted him all the way to Diamond Country, and he gradually built up his own forces.

Wu Yati always wanted to fight back, but his enemies were too powerful for him to defeat. In desperation, he chose to establish his own realm, thus creating Tamwood.

However, when it came time to construct the nation, he suddenly realized that building a complete country required an immense amount of work, especially the bureaucratic departments, which were extremely troublesome.

After struggling for a year, Wu Yati decisively gave up, and Tamwood became the quasi-military regime it is now.

Over the years, Tamwood has developed its own set of rules, which are very similar to the rules of martial sects, attracting many people from martial sects to live here. Gradually, it has become a microcosm of a martial world.

”A prince from a Northern Alliance country?” Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow. There hadn’t been any international reports of such an incident!

”Young Master, didn’t a major incident happen in the West several decades ago? It’s because of that incident that the Judgment Chief of Xi’er Lan came to our Flame Dragon to challenge us, to intimidate our Martial Dao World!” An Long spoke softly.

”You mean...” Jiang Chen shivered inwardly, his brow furrowing slightly: ”Wu Yati’s family... which side were they on?”

”The dark side!” An Long whispered.

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, murmuring softly, ”No wonder he dares not return to the Northern Alliance. Here, the Holy Court might not concern itself with him, but if he goes back, he could be evaporated in minutes!”

”Wait a minute!”

Jiang Chen suddenly thought of something, a mischievous smile appearing in his eyes, ”I wonder if Ge’er Te knows about this. If he doesn’t, that would really be fun!”
