Medic Martial Dragon King

Chapter 2829: Chapter 2832: Respect Without Fear

”Are you willing to...”

”Not willing! I have no intention of joining the legion at the moment!”

Before Sun Qianhua could finish speaking, Jiang Chen interrupted once again.

”You... Is it so hard for you to contribute to the Void Nether Realm?”

Sun Qianhua shouted in a low voice.

”Haha!”

Jiang Chen sneered, ”Are the thirteen legions of ten thousand I annihilated just decorations?”

”I...”

Sun Qianhua was at a loss for words, unable to refute.

”Commander Sun, I understand what you mean, but don’t bind me with righteousness. I won’t stay long in the Virtual Refinement Void Region. I can go to the battlefield, but it needs to be done my way, not according to your arrangements!”

Jiang Chen’s expression softened as he said indifferently, ”I don’t know who told you that I once stripped my Primordial Spirit seven times, but you should know how dangerous it is to strip the Primordial Spirit. If they say I, Jiang Chen, have strength but refuse to use it, then let those people match my battle achievements first. Otherwise, they’re not qualified!”

Sun Qianhua’s face changed, suddenly realizing something, a trace of surprise appearing in her eyes: ”You mean to say...”

”Whether or not it’s true, there are only a few people who know I’ve stripped my Primordial Spirit seven times. If the person who told you is Commander Sun, then it seems that the one behind it is your Enforcement Legion’s leading figure.”

Jiang Chen spoke coldly, ”Even if he stands before me, I will tell him that this is the last time I will strip my Primordial Spirit to form a battle array. He should abandon this thought, and I’ll also tell him that his approach is utterly disgusting!”

”You... You dare speak to the commander like that?!”

Sun Qianhua’s gaze changed, glaring at Jiang Chen.

Beside them, Zhang Sanfeng and the others were all taken aback. They hadn’t intervened in the conversation between Sun Qianhua and Jiang Chen because it was entirely up to Jiang Chen’s own will. But hearing that it was that person who wanted Jiang Chen to form a battle array, everyone couldn’t help but shudder. If that person had set his sights on him, it wouldn’t be easy on the Extraterritorial Battlefield.

”So it really is him!”

Jiang Chen’s eyes showed a hint of coldness, ”So what if it’s him? What if he’s the commander of your Enforcement Legion? He can kill me, but no one can force me to do something I don’t want to do. Such tactics only make me despise him more, and if he forces me again, I will list him as an enemy!”

”You...”

Sun Qianhua’s face changed dramatically, filled with disbelief.

Zhang Sanfeng and the others were all shocked. No one on the entire Extraterritorial Battlefield had ever dared to say they would list that person as an enemy; this was simply outrageous!

High above, Zhao Buzu’s Spirit Avatar glared at the virtual figure beside him, ”Si Wenjun, I’m telling you, if you force Young Jiang and ruin his Dao Heart, becoming his Heart Demon, I’ll help him take you down!”

The virtual figure glanced at Zhao Buzu, shrugged helplessly, ”I just thought he was willing to help the Taiji Legion condense a Formation Spirit, so perhaps we could persuade him to help the Enforcement Legion form a battle array as well. You’ve heard what the fourth brother said, the battle array he condenses is particularly strong, and his understanding of battle arrays surpasses that of other War Array Masters. I didn’t expect the kid to be so sensitive!”

”He’s always been sensitive to coercion. I have some understanding of his Dao Heart; it’s the Path of Protection, also the Path of Free Will. We cultivators must cultivate with free will, but his Great Dao seems to emphasize this even more.”

Zhao Buzu reminded, ”What he wants to protect, he’ll give his all to protect. What he doesn’t want to protect, nothing you say will change his mind. The legion on the Extraterritorial Battlefield already disgusts him, so don’t test him any further. If he starts to dislike you, he really will just walk away!”

”I understand!”

The virtual figure nodded, glancing deeply downward, and transmitted a message to Sun Qianhua below.

Sun Qianhua, full of anger, glared at Jiang Chen, about to reprimand him. Suddenly her expression changed, bowing towards the sky, ”Yes!”

Jiang Chen looked up, his brow furrowing slightly.

”Don’t bother looking, the commander has left!”

Sun Qianhua, her face cold, looked at Jiang Chen, ”Regardless of the danger after you strip your Primordial Spirit, the Enforcement Legion will not bother you again, but do not break the rules on the battlefield, otherwise, you’ll be severely punished!”

”Forcing others to do what they dislike, and now failing yet becoming furious, the Enforcement Legion is merely so-so!”

Jiang Chen coldly glanced at Sun Qianhua and turned to walk back to the camp.

”You...”

Sun Qianhua’s face changed again at his words, but then she paused. It really did seem like she came to force Jiang Chen to strip his Primordial Spirit, but...

Raising her head to look at the sky, a trace of confusion appeared in Sun Qianhua’s eyes. Was I wrong? If I was wrong... doesn’t that mean the commander’s orders were wrong? This...

”I was wrong!”

A voice echoed in Sun Qianhua’s ears, ”Don’t target Jiang Chen. Since he has come to the battlefield, he certainly won’t disappoint us; it’s my fault for demanding too much!”

”Commander!”

Sun Qianhua’s eyes filled with shock, the commander... admitted he was wrong?!

Inside the camp.

”Wow, you kid are too fierce, daring to say such things even to him?”

Tang Jie looked at Jiang Chen with disbelief all over his face.

Zhang Sanfeng and the others were also full of apprehension.

”Everyone makes mistakes, don’t they? I’ve never thought of myself as below others, nor do I see myself as above others. Whether it’s strength, realm, high or low, I don’t consider myself inferior to anyone.”

Jiang Chen smiled lightly, ”Cultivating the Dao is cultivating the heart. One can have respect in the heart, but there must be no fear. That person has guarded the Extraterritorial Battlefield for many years, making great achievements. I admire him, but that doesn’t mean I must fear him. If you have fear in your heart, you might never surpass the one you fear!”

Zhang Sanfeng and the others were all stunned, a thoughtful look in their eyes.

”There can be respect in the heart, but no fear!”

They all repeated Jiang Chen’s words softly, a contemplative expression on their faces.

”This is the mindset a cultivator should have. Now I finally understand why even my father thought so highly of him!”

High above, the virtual figure nodded approvingly.

”Nonsense, have you seen whose student he is? Shouldn’t he be well-regarded?”

Zhao Buzu glanced at the virtual figure, speaking boastfully.

The virtual figure stood motionless, watching below, ignoring him.

”What? Envious? I’m telling you, my student is amazing, he...”

Zhao Buzu spoke proudly, but after a few sentences, he suddenly felt something was wrong, and pushed the virtual figure.

Whoosh!

The virtual figure instantly scattered into a field of light, slowly dissipating.

”Whoa!”

Zhao Buzu mumbled in surprise, ”Left? Damn, where was I then...”

Suddenly, Zhao Buzu’s eyes widened, ”What level has that guy reached? When did he leave that I didn’t even notice?! Could he... be nearing the level of the Great Emperor?”
