Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1764: Chapter 1767: We Are Allies

”Now that we’ve come to know each other well, if the two of you wish to continue our collaboration in the future, we still welcome you as allies.”

Jiang Chen nodded lightly, smiling, ”Of course, if the two of you wish to retire and wait for the changing times, I won’t target your forces!”

”Since we’ve already allied with Mr. Jiang, there’s no reason for me to retire again, and besides...”

Li Yuan glanced at Dragon Saint, ”I have some guesses about Dragon Saint’s identity. With the way Dragon Saint supports you, I think your identity might be even more astonishing. This collaboration is a gain for me!”

”I think so too,” Da Lipu said with a small smile.

Jiang Chen smiled gently and extended his hand, ”Then let’s wish for a successful collaboration!”

Li Yuan and Da Lipu both shook hands with Jiang Chen one after the other.

”Mr. Jiang, I don’t quite understand. Just from what Hu Hada said, you couldn’t have guessed our identities, right?” Da Lipu looked at Jiang Chen with a puzzled expression.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, ”Both of your factions should have received an invitation from the Soul Devouring Group and met with them separately, right?”

”What?!”

As soon as Jiang Chen finished speaking, the brows of Dragon Saint, the Pope, and You Xuan furrowed, and a touch of suspicion appeared in their gazes towards Li Yuan and Da Lipu.

”Yes!”

Li Yuan nodded calmly.

Da Lipu’s face turned somewhat awkward as he gave an embarrassed smile.

”It seems Mr. Da Lipu once seriously considered allying with the Soul Devouring Group,” Jiang Chen looked intently at Da Lipu.

A somber look flashed in the eyes of Dragon Saint and the others as the spiritual power within them began to circulate slowly.

Da Lipu’s face stiffened, and his expression grew uneasy.

”However, that’s not important!” Jiang Chen said with a light laugh, ”What’s important is that we are now allies.”

Da Lipu paused for a moment, looking at Jiang Chen with a hint of surprise.

Dragon Saint and the others glanced at Jiang Chen and stopped circulating their spiritual power.

”Mr. Jiang, did you know all along?” Li Yuan asked Jiang Chen with some confusion.

If Jiang Chen knew all along, would he have trusted them so easily before?

”Not exactly!”

Jiang Chen shook his head lightly, ”I only knew before that the two of you had independently received invitations from the Soul Devouring Group, but from my perspective, even if you met with them separately, it doesn’t mean you’ve allied with them.”

Pausing for a moment, Jiang Chen looked at Li Yuan, ”Of course, after learning about your meetings with the Soul Devouring Group, I was indeed on guard against you.”

”Later, I killed one of your Qi Sha Group, Fa Mo’er. He was sent by the Soul Devouring Group to negotiate with me, and after Mr. Mu Sita found out, he helped me cover it up and told me that your Qi Sha Group was split into two factions.”

”I had Mr. Mu Sita convey a message to you, Mr. Li Yuan, and afterwards, I never saw any of the other three Sha again, which is why I let my guard down against your Qi Sha Group!”

”So it was you who killed Fa Mo’er! I was looking for him for a while,” Li Yuan chuckled lightly.

Jiang Chen returned the smile and turned to Da Lipu, ”As for why I trusted the Chaide Family, it was mainly because of Arthur. When Arthur told me that after declaring himself against the three major organizations, the family gave him more power, it made me feel you had already made a preliminary decision!”

A look of realization flashed in Da Lipu’s eyes.

”And the reason I confirmed you were with the descending forces was precisely because I obtained a list of various factions invited by the Soul Devouring Group.”

Jiang Chen began to formally answer Da Lipu’s question, ”On that list were the Grand Virtue Gate of the Liga Continent, Hellfire, The Crusaders, and other factions. At the time, I found it curious why the Grand Virtue Gate only invited factions from the Liga Continent region until later when Fire Xiuluo’s identity as a descender was exposed. That was when I confirmed the factions on this list probably represented those from the Ancient Martial Era!”

”Mr. Jiang, who else was on that list?” Dragon Saint’s expression became serious as he spoke sternly.

The Pope and others all looked at Jiang Chen intently, even Li Yuan and Da Lipu were eager to know which factions were from the Ancient Martial Era!

”Well...”

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, then shook his head lightly, ”Dragon Saint Senior, some people on this list... I’ve yet to decide how to deal with them. For now, I won’t tell you, lest you act unnaturally when you meet them.”

Dragon Saint paused, a hint of suspicion flashed in his eyes, but he didn’t press further.

”Mr. Li Yuan, I have a question for you,” Jiang Chen shifted the topic and turned towards Li Yuan.

Li Yuan paused, looking a bit troubled, already guessing what Jiang Chen wanted to ask, but he found it hard to answer.

Noticing Li Yuan’s discomfort, Jiang Chen said softly, ”If it’s too difficult, you don’t have to answer.”

”I know what you want to ask, Mr. Jiang, but... I really can’t provide a detailed answer. However, I can tell you that I came through a space rift,”

Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, then spoke softly, ”That space rift can only be passed through by a Second Soul meeting the power threshold between the pinnacle of the Venerable Realm and the peak of the Saint Realm. Physical bodies can’t pass through it; a Second Soul below the Venerable Realm peak would be torn apart by the Spatial Hurricane, while a powerful Divine Infant would shatter this world’s space. So those in the Divine Infant Realm who wish to descend must let their Primordial Spirit descend only.”

After a pause, Li Yuan looked at Jiang Chen apologetically, ”Mr. Jiang, I can’t reveal the location of the space rift. It’s a secret concerning my sect.”

”Alright!” Jiang Chen nodded lightly.

Dragon Saint’s brows furrowed lightly, an unusual look appeared in his eyes as he glanced at Jiang Chen, wanting to say more but stopping himself.

After thinking for a moment, feeling it was about time, Jiang Chen spoke softly, ”Gentlemen, since everything has been clarified, let’s part ways for now. We’ll contact each other again when there’s more action against the three major organizations. Please keep the news of my being alive confidential!”

”Of course!”

”Certainly!”

Li Yuan and Da Lipu both nodded.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Several figures leapt into the air, heading off in different directions.

Dingjing, Flame Dragon Kingdom.

In the Dingyun Lake Villa, Ye Jingyi, Gong Lin, and Yè Yùwǎn were sitting on the sofa, their eyes filled with yearning.

Before, they hadn’t felt it, but after learning of Jiang Chen’s death and resurrection, their hearts were filled with longing, wishing Jiang Chen could appear before them immediately.

Bang bang bang!

A series of knocks sounded at the door.

Ye Jingyi called out softly, ”Come in!”

Click!

The door opened, and Ying Zi entered the villa with a man wearing a baseball cap, the brim pulled down low.

”Ah!”

As soon as she laid eyes on the man, Ye Jingyi sprang up from the sofa, her eyes instantly welling up with tears.

Gong Lin and Yè Yùwǎn were startled, quickly getting up to follow Ye Jingyi’s gaze. They were then stunned, unable to take their eyes off the man.

Ying Zi smiled slightly and turned to leave the room, closing the door behind her.
