Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1043: Chapter 1046: Infighting Before the Battle? (Bonus Chapter for reaching 1.2 million total fan points!!)

”So that’s how it is!”

Jiang Chen’s expression turned grim, ”The Gene Organization traded a Venerable Realm powerhouse for the lives of those Semi Venerable Realm and Paladin Knights from the Dark Church, and by implicating the Flame Dragon, it benefits both the Gene Organization and the Dark Church. If that’s the case, the Gene Organization probably agreed to do more for the Dark Church than just create one Venerable Realm powerhouse!”

”If the Gene Organization is looking to create Venerable Realm powerhouses, then that means...” Xi’er’s face paled, her brows furrowing tightly.

As Jiang Chen warily eyed the fourteen people in front of the villa, he spoke indifferently, ”Haven’t you noticed? Not a single person below the Paladin Realm can be found in the entire Fulang family estate. Where have all those people gone? Moreover, I estimate that there are now fewer than a thousand Paladins left. Where have they all disappeared to?”

”These bastards! They don’t even spare their own!” Xi’er’s eyes displayed a deep loathing.

”What’s with the nonsense? We’re going to fight anyway, so why not just go at them fiercely? Why analyze all this here - are you showing off your intelligence, or are you helping them stall for time? Are you planning to betray us?” Ralph chastised Jiang Chen once more.

”If you want to die, I can oblige you right now!” Yan Hu stared coldly at Ralph, a chilling murderous intent erupting from his whole body. Elder Ming shifted slightly to one side, forming an angle with Yan Hu, their target being Ralph.

Ralph’s face changed color. It was not a pleasant feeling to be targeted by a late-stage Semi Venerable and a Peak Semi Venerable.

”Enough! Ralph, bite your tongue!”

As internal strife seemed imminent, Mu Lisi hurriedly scolded Ralph, then turned to look at Jiang Chen. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly sensed something.

”Don’t bother searching. You won’t be able to find where our laboratory is!”

A mocking voice rang out. A Peak Semi Venerable Realm powerhouse across the way leisurely watched Jiang Chen: ”Let me introduce myself, my name is Ha Sida, and you must be Jiang Chen, right? Ya Si claimed you were a fool, but it looks like he’s the one who’s been completely played. You’re very clever, deceiving not just Ya Si but even conspiring with the Holy Court. Most importantly, you’ve managed to fool us right under our noses.”

”Under the guise of wanting to stall for time, using your conversations as a cover, you secretly extended your aura to scout the villa for our laboratory. If your breathing hadn’t become slightly erratic when that fool accused you of collusion, I might not have noticed at all. You’re quite formidable! Is this the special ability of the Ancient Martial Artist of the Flame Dragon from the legends?”

The crowd was stunned for a moment, with members of the Dark Church frowning at Jiang Chen, while Yan Hu and the others glared angrily at Ralph.

Ralph’s mouth twitched. He had merely taken the opportunity to needle Jiang Chen a bit, never expecting Jiang Chen to really conspire with the enemy, let alone to get himself implicated!

”Sigh, can’t find it!”

Jiang Chen exhaled in frustration, his eyes icily determined: ”It’s the same as last time with Si Bo’er, they must have something that can shield their aura! But...”

Jiang Chen’s eyes flashed with a cold light: ”If we can’t find it, we’ll stop looking. If we take down this villa, I refuse to believe we won’t discover it!”

”Then let’s tear it down!” Mu Lisi declared in a low voice, his gaze toward the fourteen people opposite brimming with wariness, hesitating to make a move.

”Haha! Do you dare make a move?” Ha Sida scoffed with a smile, ”Three Peak Semi Venerables, five late-stage Semi Venerables, and five mid-stage Semi Venerables. Do you dare to fight us, ah?”

”Haha! Scared, aren’t you?”

”Even the Holy Court’s people are scared!”

”Wow, are these the invincible people of the Holy Court? Must be fakes, right?”

”Definitely fakes!”

The rest joined in the mockery.

Ha Sida mocked them once more: ”You’d better just stay there. Perhaps you’ll have the chance to witness the birth of a Venerable Realm powerhouse. If you resist, you won’t even have the chance to witness it!”

Pausing briefly, Ha Sida fixed his gaze on Jiang Chen. ”Jiang Chen, you are a talent—meticulous in thought and extremely gifted. Have you considered joining our organization? If you are willing, you will be the next to reach the Venerable Realm! What do you say?”

”Humph! Join you? To become a monster that’s neither human nor ghost?” Jiang Chen snorted coldly.

Ha Sida and the others’ expressions changed suddenly, revealing a violent look in their eyes.

”It seems you are asking for death!” Ha Sida shouted angrily.

Hum hum hum!

The aura of the fourteen men erupted to the extreme, fiercely pressing down on Jiang Chen and his companions.

”Jiang Chen, knowing that we can’t beat them, why do you provoke them? What’s your intention?” Ralph spoke up again, scolding Jiang Chen.

”So if we can’t beat them, we just give up? Is the Holy Court always this cowardly? Is this how pathetic you are?” Jiang Chen was thoroughly infuriated. He didn’t expect that at this time, Ralph would still be against him and couldn’t help but curse aloud!

”Ralph! Shut your mouth!” Mu Lisi’s aura surged explosively, pressing directly onto Ralph.

Thump thump thump!

Already somewhat unable to withstand the pressure from Ha Sida and the others, Ralph’s face turned white as Mu Lisi’s aura came bearing down, and he took several steps back. After giving Mu Lisi a glance, he turned to look at Jiang Chen, hatred flashing in his eyes!

”Haha... The Holy Court, a bunch of hypocrites — fighting amongst yourselves even at the forefront of battle! Jiang Chen, you are very smart, but your choice of allies is not so good, eh?” Ha Sida’s eyes shifted as he mocked once more.

”Mr. Jiang, don’t fall for his trick. He’s trying to divide us!” Xi’er urgently spoke out.

”I know,” Jiang Chen replied indifferently.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

More than thirty figures leapt to Jiang Chen’s side, all eyeing Ha Sida and the fourteen men warily.

Mu Lisi and his companions took one look at the newcomers and shuddered inwardly.

The arrivals included Dark Thunder and fourteen others. The Holy Court only had fewer than twenty people, meaning that in this short time, the Holy Court had lost more than twenty Semi Venerable Realm powerhouses.

”These are all the people we have left! Mr. Mu Lisi, please make a decision, to fight or to retreat! If we fight, my people and I will take on two Peak Semi Venerable Venerables and three late-stage Semi Venerable Venerables, the rest will be up to you!” Jiang Chen spoke with a solemn voice.

Mu Lisi froze for a moment, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise, and hesitantly sensed the strength of Jiang Chen and his group. His heart trembled violently. ”Mr. Jiang, you...”

”If we do not fight with all we have now, are we truly ready to watch idly as the Dark Church gains another Venerable Realm powerhouse?” Jiang Chen cried out.

”Good! Let’s go all out! Attack!”

Mu Lisi shouted loudly, leaping forward, rushing towards one of the enemy’s Peak Semi Venerable Venerables.

At this moment, Jiang Chen’s expression also turned fierce, and he bellowed:

”Attack!”
