Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2149: Chapter 2153: Explanation

”Family Head Shang, there’s no need for this; it’s our fault for discovering it too late!”

Jian Wuheng glanced around and sighed lightly, ”Family Head Shang, tidy up and then take them to the academy.”

”Thank you, Dean!”

Shang Qin was slightly taken aback and bowed again with gratitude.

”We’ll go on ahead.”

Jian Wuheng gave a brief instruction and turned to Jiang Chen and the others, ”Let’s go, we’ll talk more at the academy.”

”Yes!”

Jiang Chen and the others nodded, and everyone took to the sky, flying towards Changyun Prefecture. They needed to use the teleportation array there to return to the academy.

The strong figures of Hui City watched Jian Wuheng and his group leave from a distance, their eyes brightening instantly. The Shangluo Family was a top family in Hui City, but after this battle, there wouldn’t be much combat power left, and the resources in the family...

Thinking of this, a group of powerful cultivators in the Void Refinement Realm took to the sky, rushing towards the ruins of the Shangluo Family estate in the northern suburbs.

”Ladies and gentlemen, the Shangluo Family is an affiliate of our Changlin Academy. The Shangluo Family has suffered this catastrophe, and the remaining members have already been taken into our academy. Please do not disturb our academy’s people in mourning their family!”

A voice full of both gentleness and deadly intent echoed in the sky above Hui City, a powerful Great Dao pressure pressing fiercely on those cultivators rushing towards the northern suburbs.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Thud! Thud!

The cultivators who had rushed out of Hui City all spewed a mouthful of blood and fell heavily to the ground!

On top of the city wall, Zhang Ling looked up at the distant sky, then at the pale faces of those opportunists lying outside the city wall, a mocking smile curling at his lips. He shook his head lightly and flashed toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Once the Great Dao pressure in the air dissipated, the group of cultivators quickly got up from the ground, hurriedly rushed into Hui City, and dared not have any more thoughts of coveting the Shangluo Family.

On the Shang Family ruins.

Shang Qin and the other two heard the call from Jian Cangqiong, their eyes showing a look of deep emotion as they bowed together in the direction Jian Cangqiong’s group left.

Changlin Academy, Southern Maniac Mountain.

Jiang Chen and the others returned directly to Southern Maniac Mountain without any delay.

This trip to bring people back made Jian Cangqiong and the others feel that something was amiss. The sudden repair of the Mingyuan City teleportation array and the interference of the Changyun Prefecture Lord pointed to someone, making them extremely worried!

Although Changlin Academy does not fear the Domain Lord of the Mingqian Realm, the Domain Lord was, after all, directly appointed by the Canglan Great Emperor. If a direct conflict arose, it would be troublesome for the Canglan Great Emperor!

Upon returning to the academy, Jian Cangqiong sent someone to notify Zhang Qian to fetch his grandfather, and as for the Void Refinement Realm cultivator, it was clear to Jian Cangqiong and the others why he acted that way, but standing up at that time required considerable courage, so no one minded, allowing him to cultivate at the academy for a while was permissible!

At the Summit of South Maniac Mountain.

Dao Yeming hurried over upon learning of their return, while Jian Wuheng, Yun Tao, and Ouyang Ruoxue were all sent to the academy’s apothecary, ordered not to return tonight.

Yun Tao and the others understood that Jian Cangqiong and the others had something to ask Jiang Chen. They had also heard the final call of Poseidon and were deeply curious but could only leave reluctantly under the stern gaze of Jian Cangqiong and the others.

At this moment, seven powerful figures sat around a stone table. Hu Yiqiu and the others gave no thought to treating their injuries, staring intently at Jiang Chen, who was being forcefully pressed on the stone bench by Hu Yiqiu and Li Yukun on either side.

Jiang Chen smiled wryly, his eyes showing a hint of helplessness, ”I knew I couldn’t keep it hidden; I just didn’t expect it to be exposed so early!”

He paused and glanced at the seven powerful figures, a look of hesitation flashing in his eyes, his brows furrowing slightly.

”Why are you all gathered here? Go do what you’re supposed to do!”

Noticing Jiang Chen’s slightly troubled expression, Hu Yiqiu suddenly shouted, reaching out to push Jian Cangqiong sitting beside him, ”Hurry back and rest. Aren’t you aware you’re injured and need attention? Get going, get going!”

Jian Cangqiong and the others paused, glanced at Jiang Chen, and instantly understood, a trace of hesitation appeared in their eyes.

”Go!”

Hu Yiqiu shouted angrily, a hint of anger in his eyes, glaring fiercely at Jian Cangqiong and the others.

”Master!”

Just as Jian Cangqiong and the others were about to rise, Jiang Chen spoke softly.

Seeing the anger in Hu Yiqiu’s eyes, Jiang Chen smiled faintly. He could tell that the anger was genuine and not feigned, ”Master, don’t be like this. I... I just don’t know where to start.”

”It’s alright, boy; no matter who you are, you’re still my disciple, Hu Yiqiu. That won’t change; these shameless people are bullying you, forcing you to speak. If you don’t want to say anything, that’s fine. I’ll stand up for you. If they dare to ask anything, my Drunken Sword Path will find a target!”

Hu Yiqiu waved his hand grandly, the air suddenly filled with the aroma of wine as he looked sternly at Jian Cangqiong and the others.

Jian Cangqiong and the others shook their heads with a wry smile, unperturbed in their minds. If they had such an extraordinarily talented and mature disciple, they would also protect him as much as possible, ensuring he felt no discomfort, and Hu Yiqiu was known for being fiercely protective!

”Master, it’s okay! It’s nothing...”

Jiang Chen shook his head, but his words trailed off halfway. He suddenly realized he might not be sure how people from the Changlan Continent viewed Yuan Star.

Frowning slightly, Jiang Chen glanced around, fixing his gaze on Dao Yeming.

Dao Yeming, the head of the Punishment Hall, was straightforward in nature and would not speak ambiguously, and Jiang Chen needed a candid opinion now.

Noticing Jiang Chen’s gaze, Dao Yeming paused, a hint of puzzlement in his eyes, and Jian Cangqiong and the others glanced at Dao Yeming before turning back to Jiang Chen with a questioning look.

”Elder Xi Nu, could you tell me your view and the mainland people’s perspective on the Life Origin Star?”

Jiang Chen looked solemnly at Dao Yeming.

Jian Cangqiong and the others were slightly taken aback, then understood, their mouths curling into a smile, their eyes reflecting a look of admiration.

Though everyone treated Jiang Chen well, it was evident that Jiang Chen’s identity wasn’t so simple, and asking about attitudes towards the Life Origin Star before revealing anything was wise. Furthermore, Dao Yeming was indeed the person most likely to provide a straightforward answer!

”Regarding the Life Origin Star... my knowledge is limited!”

Dao Yeming pondered a moment, speaking softly, ”I only know that the first batch of mighty figures in our Void Nether Realm came from the Life Origin Star. They expanded territories in the Void Nether Realm, which led to the Void Nether Realm we have today. Also, because the space connecting the Life Origin Star with the Void Nether Realm overlaps with the Origin Continent, very few from the Life Origin Star break through the space to come here.”

”As for our attitude towards the Life Origin Star...”
