Chapter 949: Chapter 969: They’re Looking for You Everywhere, Yet You Came Knocking on Their Door?_1

"You guys..."

Lin Chen looked at Zhu Yao and the others who were smiling at him, shaking his head helplessly, yet warmth filled his heart.

Although their initial alliance was based on mutual interests, they had adherated to the spirit of cooperation and helped each other during battles. After experiencing life and death together, their feelings for each other had deepened considerably.

Perhaps calling them brothers-in-arms would be a stretch, but they were definitely friends.

Zhu Yao walked over, put his arm around Lin Chen’s shoulder, and laughed heartily, "Even if you’re unhappy with him, you should have called us to help you beat him up. He’s in the mid-stage of god transformation, and you’re just a Nascent Soul. Fighting him by yourself, aren’t you asking for trouble?"

Who’s looking for trouble is not certain yet.

Lin Chen muttered in his heart but didn’t elaborate, instead smiling, "Thanks."

"There’s no need to be polite among ourselves. When we’re outside, we have to watch each other’s backs. Our West Xuanzhou Team must not only unite in the Secret Realm but also outside of it. That way, who would dare to bully us?"

Long Yan’er asked, "Lin Chen, where’s your wife? I haven’t seen her."

Lin Chen gave a brief explanation, and upon hearing that An Ziwu had injured Chu Jiaxue, everyone understood.

No wonder Lin Chen wanted a direct confrontation with An Ziwu.

He was trying to avenge his wife.

"This is a public place, and their sect master is watching from below. Even if you could beat him, you wouldn’t be able to do anything to him. It’s not worth it."

Zhu Yao said in a low voice, "Once we enter the Valley of Death, let’s find an opportunity to provoke him, then gang up and beat him until he’s half-crippled. At least make him bedridden for a year or so. With so many sects on our side, there’s no need to be afraid of just one Penglai..."

Lin Chen couldn’t help but laugh, "It sounds like you’re quite familiar with this type of thing?"

Zhu Yao chuckled, "I’m the kind of person who loves to fight, so I always have to find some excuse, right? Can’t just rush in and start fighting without any reason."

"No matter how small the issue is, as long as the other party either insults or lays a hand on someone, you can beat them half-dead without anyone being able to criticize you..."

Lin Chen smiled and gave him a thumbs-up, "You’re experienced!"

Rather than just beating up An Ziwu, Lin Chen planned to get rid of him completely!

This guy harbored animosity towards him and hindered his wife’s path. Wouldn’t it be strange if he didn’t kill him?

Of course, Lin Chen wouldn’t share his true intentions with the others. He changed the subject, "I just arrived. What’s going on right now, have you found Jiang Rukong?"

Ji You answered, "We’ve seen him a few times, and the big shots from all the sects are chasing him. However, he’s too fast. By the time we get there after receiving any news, he’s already gone..."

Lin Chen asked, "What’s he doing, running around like this?"

Zhu Yao laughed, "Who knows? Anyway, chasing him is the big shots’ business. We can’t catch up, so we’re just here to accompany them and enter the Valley of Death to see what’s going on."

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "Same here, following the big shots into the valley to take a look. Last time, I was too busy running away to even appreciate it."

Ji You laughed, "Let’s go, let’s have some wine first. It’s not like we can decide when to enter anyway."

"Alright!"

They spent ten days like this.

During these ten days, they either played cards and enjoyed themselves or drank tea and wine. In short, they found ways to pass the time.

One day, while Lin Chen and the others were drinking tea on a hilltop, a huge commotion suddenly erupted from the foot of the mountain. Countless people flew into the air.

Everyone looked back startled.

"What’s going on? Did the demonic beasts from the Valley of Death break out?"

"Doesn’t look like it. What’s all the fuss about?"

Lin Chen’s gaze fell upon the dense group of cultivators in the sky, looking further to their front, and suddenly his eyes settled, and he abruptly stood up.

A disheveled middle-aged man, wearing tattered clothes, stood woodenly on a hilltop, his eyes blankly fixed on the cultivators’ camp in front of him.

"Jiang Rukong!"

Lin Chen hissed, feeling his scalp tingle. How did he end up here?

Aren’t those big shots searching for you all over the world? How dare you just waltz up to our doorstep?

Zhu Yao and the others turned to look, their eyes fixed on the miserable and numb-looking middle-aged man.

Is this the powerful Jiang Rukong from the Ancient Jiang Family of ten thousand years ago?

"Let’s go, take a look!"

Although Jiang Rukong was extremely powerful and appeared dazed and potentially dangerous, everyone flew over to him without any hesitation.

It wasn’t just Lin Chen and the others who recognized Jiang Rukong, but also many of the big shots who were stationed here.

They cautiously approached Jiang Rukong, and someone ventured to ask, "May I ask if you are the Senior Jiang Rukong from the Ancient Jiang Family?"

Jiang Rukong raised his head, his eyes somewhat confused, but he still nodded.

A stir went through the crowd.

It’s really him!

A man from ten thousand years ago appeared alive and well right before their eyes, looking exactly like a middle-aged man, and hardly changed from ten thousand years ago!

How in the world did he manage to do it?

The big wheels up front immediately grew excited, asking more urgently...
