Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 1778: Chapter 1781: I Need Some Friction

After Zhang Zhichu and his companions left the hotel, Jiang Chen and his companion also departed. Once out of the city, Jiang Chen drove while pulling Zhang Xingyuan along.

Glancing at the Flame Dragon Group members beside the parking lot at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Chen pulled Zhang Xingyuan, jumped off the peak, and landed among the cars in the parking lot unnoticed.

Jiang Chen peeked around to make sure no one had spotted him, then took a car key from his pocket and pressed the remote unlock button.

The indicator lights of a Range Rover flashed nearby.

This was the car that Elder Long had specially reserved for Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen looked at the Flame Dragon Group members, pulled Zhang Xingyuan, and ghost-like, suspended mid-air, came beside the Range Rover, stealthily getting on board.

Buzz!

Once inside the car, Jiang Chen released his Soul Force, covering a space within a thousand meters radius at the foot of the mountain.

Jiang Chen had tested this, and after multiple refinements, unless Jiang Chen willed it, even a Dragon Saint couldn’t sense his Soul Force.

Hmm?

Jiang Chen frowned suddenly, glancing at the mountain path entrance.

At the entrance stood Long Wuhun and a man, tasked with guarding the mountain path.

”Long Wuhun? That fellow guarding the mountain path, I’ll mock him a bit later!” Zhang Xingyuan also noticed Long Wuhun at the mountain path and chuckled lightly.

”You know him?” Jiang Chen turned to look at Zhang Xingyuan.

Zhang Xingyuan grinned: ”His mother is from the town below Mount Wu Dan. During elementary and middle school, he lived at his grandmother’s, and we were classmates. He frequently followed me to play on Mount Wu Dan when he was young.”

”Oh!” Jiang Chen nodded slightly.

Vroom vroom...

A rumbling noise came, as several cars arrived at the parking lot.

The two ceased their conversation.

After a while, Zhang Zhichu and his companions’ car arrived.

Jiang Chen glanced at Zhang Zhichu’s car, a hint of cold light flashing in his eyes.

Thud!

Zhang Zhichu and his companions got out of the car, heading toward the mountain path entrance.

”Uncle Zhang! Elder Wu, Elder Liu, Elder Li.”

At the foot of the mountain path, Long Wuhun laughed and greeted Zhang Zhichu and his companions.

”Wu Hen, are you stationed at the mountain foot this time?” Zhang Zhichu looked at Long Wuhun in surprise.

Although Mount Wu Dan is also a martial sect, it doesn’t have as tense a relationship with the Flame Dragon Group as other martial arts forces.

Their sect wasn’t established for long, and Mount Wu Dan has always prioritized benevolence; any elixirs in the sect are directly distributed to disciples. Thus, during the Flame Dragon Group’s sweep, they never targeted Mount Wu Dan. The two forces have no grudges.

And due to Long Wuhun’s classmate relationship with Zhang Xingyuan, the relationship between Mount Wu Dan and the Long Family is quite good.

Long Wuhun chuckled lightly: ”During the Martial Arts Conference period, our Flame Dragon Group is the least dignified, reduced to gatekeepers and guards!”

”Haha, let’s not discuss this; we should head up now!” Zhang Zhichu laughed, somewhat avoiding the topic.

”Alright.” Long Wuhun nodded, glancing at Mount Wu Dan’s group and then said in surprise: ”Oh, Uncle Zhang, Zhang Xingyuan didn’t come?”

Zhang Zhichu’s face stiffened, then said with a hint of anger: ”That kid was excited all night, got up late, so we went ahead, letting him and his senior come on their own later!”

”Haha! That kid, I’ll have a word with him. I’ve been here for two hours, and he’s still not here; that’s not right!” Long Wuhun said jokingly.

Zhang Zhichu nodded and led Mount Wu Dan’s group up the mountain path.

As Mount Wu Dan’s crowd passed by Long Wuhun and his companion, the man beside Long Wuhun stared directly at a young Taoist at the back, and the Taoist nodded lightly three times, continuing to walk forward.

Parking lot.

Jiang Chen and Zhang Xingyuan sat in the car, watching Zhang Zhichu and his companions going up the mountain in the distance.

”Mr. Jiang, there doesn’t seem to be anything strange here. Do you think the people from the three major organizations would check others halfway up the mountain?” Zhang Xingyuan whispered.

”No, the mountain path has several crossroads within a hundred meters, which are for the Martial Dao World folks to explore Martial Peak.”

Jiang Chen shook his head slightly: ”After all, several Martial Arts Conferences have been held here, and many seniors have broken through realms here. When people from the Martial Dao World come for the conference, they visit the places where those seniors broke through. Once past this one hundred-meter distance, they can’t confirm each other’s identity.”

”Then I didn’t see any suspicious people just now!” Zhang Xingyuan looked back at the mountain foot puzzled.

At the mountain path entrance were Long Wuhun and his companion, with a Flame Dragon Group member stationed every ten meters, no outsiders!

”There is!”

Jiang Chen spoke in a low voice, looking distantly at the man beside Long Wuhun.

”Where?” Zhang Xingyuan looked around and still saw no suspicious person.

Jiang Chen raised a hand and pointed at the mountain path entrance, speaking solemnly: ”The person beside Long Wuhun is from the Soul Devour Group!”

”What?! Zhang Xingyuan exclaimed in surprise: ”The Flame Dragon Group has been infiltrated by the Soul Devour Group?”

”Not surprising! The infiltration of the Soul Devour Group and the Gene Organization into various forces is earlier than we imagined!”

Jiang Chen spoke calmly, glancing in the direction of Long Wuhun and his companion, then turned toward Zhang Xingyuan: ”What’s the name of the young man at the end of your sect’s group?”

”Wang Zhong, he’s been mountain climbing for five years, has good aptitude, became Elder Li’s direct disciple, and begged Elder Li to bring him this time to see the world!” Zhang Xingyuan introduced softly.

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, took out his mobile and opened a chat group, sending an audio message.

”Anyone have grudges with Mount Wu Dan?”

Zhang Xingyuan was taken aback, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise.

”Wu Dan? Mr. Jiang, did Wu Dan also join the three major organizations? That’s impossible, right?”

A puzzled audio message from Yue Zhenfeng appeared in the chat group.

”Don’t worry about what’s happening with Mount Wu Dan, if there’s an answer to brother’s question, then answer. Now’s not the time for long talks, you know the situation? Don’t waste time.”

Lou Qiangqiang acted as the order maintainer, scolding Yue Zhenfeng.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly, but Lou Qiangqiang was right; time is indeed life now, he must arrange to investigate other forces on the mountain.

”Mr. Jiang, Mount Wu Dan has always been benevolent, never committed misdeeds; very few have grudges with Wu Dan.”

Tang Jiawei sent an audio message.

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow and sent another audio message: ”Make up a reason, challenge Mount Wu Dan, send young ones, challenge Wu Dan’s Wang Zhong.”

”I’ll do it, I’ll do it; I’ll just say I don’t like his face. Anyway, I’m the Chaos Devil; I randomly dislike someone and fight them.”

Lou Qiangqiang eagerly sent an audio message.

Jiang Chen smiled: ”Qiangqiang, it’s fine for you to do it, but you need to create friction with him before the conference.”

”No problem, causing trouble is my specialty!”

Lou Qiangqiang readily agreed.
