Mu Zhenchuan was reluctant to accept the reality, but he could do nothing about it. He left dejected.

It was thanks to his younger brother Mu Ping’s surprise that they had suffered a great loss, instead of teaching Jiang Chen a lesson.

He had wanted to mimic his brother, to give Jiang Chen a stare before leaving, but when he looked over, he caught Jiang Chen’s sharp look towards him. He was given a good scare and in the end, ran away swiftly.

Baili Li was also regretting that she had provoked such a formidable swordsman. What she worried about most was her elder brother’s condition.

Standing by the spiritual armor that had turned into pieces of iron, he was unable to get over the fact that he had been defeated by a single attack.

She was worried and she walked over. “Brother.”

Baili Tu didn’t answer her. He turned around and walked towards Jiang Chen. He said, “I lost. The white tiger is yours. I’ll see you in the competition of the Sacred Institute.”

Then, he left with his men.

The crowd was still clustered around Jiang Chen, but they looked at him in a different way than before.

There was awe, worship, envy, jealousy… Whatever it was, they’d all recognized Jiang Chen’s strength.

“Apprentice Brother Jiang Chen.”

Shui Sheng came up to him joyfully after the crisis.

“Looks like I still can escort you back,” Jiang Chen smiled slightly.

Shui Sheng smiled sweetly. Somehow, his words made her very happy.

Her Apprentice Sister Zhiruo and some other disciples of the Exquisite Sect also came up to him.

They were the ones who had the biggest change in attitude toward Jiang Chen.

Zhiruo was a proud woman. At first, she saw Jiang Chen was only in the completed preliminary stage of the Mental Wander State, so she didn’t take him seriously.

But by then, she had seen his strength and was looking at him in a different way.

In comparison, the disciples behind her didn’t dare look into Jiang Chen’s eyes, since they were afraid their previous impoliteness could bring them trouble.

Fortunately, Jiang Chen paid attention only to Shui Sheng. In this fashion, the group of people hit the road with different thoughts in their minds.

They soon arrived at the city center. There was also a square and a fountain, but unlike the fountain in the City of Wolf, this one had water in it.

In the square, there were several portals. They had curtains made of light outlining them instead of door frames.

Shui Sheng was flustered when she thought about the inevitable farewell. She felt like she still had a lot to say to Jiang Chen, but didn’t know how to open her mouth.

Luckily, Zhiruo opened hers. She glanced at Shui Sheng and Jiang Chen with a gentle smile.

“The portal of our sect won’t be closed until tomorrow morning. It’s not dark yet. Let’s find a place to stay for a while.”

A genius like Jiang Chen would become famous sooner or later. If she could become acquainted with him, she had everything to gain and nothing to lose.

“No thanks.”

Jiang Chen shook his head and said with pity, “The Black White School could be after me. I made such a scene in the City of Bear. Their killers might be moving already.”

Although Shui Sheng was unwilling to say goodbye to him, she couldn’t urge him to stay, since he had a good reason.

Zhiruo didn’t say anything either.

In the end, under Jiang Chen’s gaze, Shui Sheng and her companions walked into the portal and left the City of Bear.

“White tiger, let’s go.”

Jiang Chen and the white tiger quickly left the City of Bear for a wild area.

“The portal of the Natural Law School in the City of Bear is the last to close. Anyone could anticipate my presence at the square tomorrow at noon. If there are really killers after me…”

Jiang Chen found it a tricky situation. He could disguise himself, but with the white tiger, it would be in vain.

At the same time, he couldn’t help thinking what would happen if he didn’t get through the portal in time.

Practitioners wouldn’t starve to death in the Realm of Beasts, and besides that, they could take adventures. It sounded pretty good. Even if there were no portals, he could just walk in one direction and in this way, he would be able to leave sooner or later.

But the fact that the big groups would rather use portals to transport their disciples means the normal ways would be more difficult.

Jiang Chen knew portals weren’t easy to open. They cost a great fortune and had a high risk.

Suddenly, the white tiger snarled at him.

“Do you mean you want to dash into the portal at your highest speed?” Jiang Chen looked into the tiger’s eyes and was astonished.

The white tiger’s intelligence was higher than he had thought. It understood everything that had happened to Jiang Chen, from their journey to the city to the risks Jiang Chen had taken. It was trying to help him as well.

“No. I’m going to take you out there, so I have to keep you with me.”

Jiang Chen shook his head and petted the white tiger’s head. He said, “Don’t worry. Maybe I’m overthinking and there are no killers after all. Or maybe they didn’t anticipate my progress and aren’t as powerful as I am.

“But, just in case.”

Jiang Chen flew into the air and observed the terrain around him. He was musing, as if planning something.

Before he had come here, he had made many preparations to deal with powerful monsters, since he had to get the spiritual herb.

The sunlit stone was only one of the preparations he had made. He had more in his mustardseed ring.

Here is fine.

Jiang Chen started to deploy something.

The next day, Jiang Chen let the white tiger stay where it was while he went to the city to check it out.

Grrrr!

The white tiger snarled when it realized what Jiang Chen was going to do. It kept walking around Jiang Chen.

The white tiger had been abandoned once. It was afraid that Jiang Chen would abandon it, too.

After all, at the moment, it was Jiang Chen’s property.

“I’ll be back. I promise you. If you go into the city with me, everyone will know it’s me. I’ll go there to check out the situation first,” Jiang Chen said.

The white tiger was still nervous. The difference between human beings and monsters was that even though the latter could understand a situation, they couldn’t accept it.

The white tiger didn’t sit down until Jiang Chen scolded it a little bit. It tilted its head and slightly shut its eyes.

“You have a temper, don’t you?”

Jiang Chen smiled and promised the white tiger again before he flew to the City of Bear.

Since he didn’t have to disguise himself and wanted to check whether there were killers, he flew over the city unconcealed.

What had happened the day before was still very vivid in people’s minds. When the people in the City of Bear saw Jiang Chen, they felt quite excited.

In the square, many disciples of the Natural Law School were already there, preparing close to the portal for departure.

They’d heard about Jiang Chen’s adventures and felt very proud of him.

After celebrities like Ning Haotian and Li Xue’er, the Natural Law School also had Jiang Chen. What a glory it was. They were glad.

When Jiang Chen arrived at the square, the disciples of the Natural Law School all greeted him warmly.

Jiang Chen answered them with a smile. Just to test whether there were killers, he walked rapidly towards the portal.

If the killers of the Black White School were really in the Realm of Beasts, this would be their last chance.

Once Jiang Chen went back to the Natural Law School, they wouldn’t have any chance to kill him.

Whoosh!

An arrow flew towards Jiang Chen.

As expected!

Jiang Chen had made thorough preparations. He flew into the air immediately, but when he looked down to see who had attacked him, he was surprised.

It was the arrogant Third Prince who was standing in front of the portal.

“Isn’t this the successor to the doctrine of sword who threatened to kill me?”

The Third Prince was holding the same bow that he had used in the Natural Law School the other day. He was sneering, as arrogant as ever.

He looked over to the disciples of the Natural Law School in the square and shouted, “If Jiang Chen doesn’t die today, none of you can leave!”

The City of Bear was where the last portal was located. The disciples of the Natural Law School suddenly became panicked.

According to the Third Prince’s character, he wasn’t just saying these words, but meant them.

Gradually, the pride they held for Jiang Chen dissipated.
