Dragon-Marked War God

“This person’s strength has clearly reached the peak of the Mid Hierarch Realm. That’s terrifying. I reckon this Jiang Chen is sure to die.”

“Sigh, he has only himself to blame. Who does he think he is? He even dared to kill the son of a boundary lord. He’s far too reckless.”

“The world is so unpredictable. Who would have thought this all-conquering guy would be taken out so quickly? With the Lord of Tianlai Boundary and our Lord of Tongyou Boundary joining forces, who could stand against them?”

“Haha, I reckon this Jiang Chen might not even be able to beat the lion that the Lord of Tianlai Boundary rides.”

“Pity those two peerless beauties. They’ll surely perish along with Jiang Chen.”

When Bi Chao struck, it was with the force of a thunderbolt. Man and beast were unstoppable. In the eyes of the crowd, it seemed Jiang Chen was already finished.

At this moment, Xue Qianying clenched her teeth. In her eyes, Jiang Chen had also fallen into a deadly situation. With two boundary lords attacking at the same time, how could he possibly survive? Xue Qianying had long since given him her heart in secret. Whether or not Jiang Chen would marry her, whether or not he loved her, since he was the final winner of the martial contest for a marriage, there was only one man in Xue Qianying’s heart, and that was Jiang Chen. Even if she had to die, she would die before him.

Xue Qianying didn’t hesitate in the slightest. She resolutely rushed out like a streak of light, charging up to the top of the void. No one had expected this. The City Lord’s daughter actually made a move, and she placed herself directly in front of Jiang Chen.

No one had expected this scene, and Jiang Chen hadn’t noticed it either. At the very moment Bi Chao struck with all his might, someone actually stood in front of him and blocked the blow for him.

A white-clad figure, blood splattering, was like a cold glint of light piercing into Jiang Chen’s chest. Jiang Chen frowned deeply, and his heart ached inexplicably. Who could it be? Who would actually risk her life for him to block a blow from the Lord of Tianlai Boundary?

Originally, Jiang Chen didn’t need anyone to block for him at all. But in Xue Qianying’s heart, no matter how strong Jiang Chen was, could he be stronger than two boundary lords? No matter how fast his strength had risen, how could he be a match for them? So Xue Qianying had no choice but to step forward. It was her only choice, and also her final farewell.

“No!”

Tao Qianjun roared, but it was already too late. Xue Qianying had come out too abruptly. No one had noticed, and Jiang Chen had no time to save her. She and the attack of the Lord of Tianlai Boundary had appeared at almost the same instant. An aura of despair and deathly silence spread out continuously.

Tao Qianjun’s heart instantly collapsed, because once Xue Qianying died, everything he had done before would be in vain. Xue Qianying was his pawn, his most important trump card. If Xue Qianying died, he might lose everything.

A splash of blood, a riot of crimson, was scattered over Xue Qianying’s snow-white clothes. Jiang Chen quickly moved and caught Xue Qianying. The green veil slid off, and Jiang Chen’s gaze froze completely on Xue Qianying’s face.

Shock, astonishment, unease, panic, and finally gravity. Jiang Chen’s expression remained extremely grim the whole time. He knew he had been wrong, terribly wrong. He should have realized long ago that this person had to be someone he knew. Her eyes were definitely eyes he had seen before, eyes that had felt so familiar.

At the corners of Xue Qianying’s mouth, there was still a faint composure, cold as frost, just like her face that never changed over ten thousand years. The corners of her mouth, covered in blood, looked even softer and more genuine.

In Jiang Chen’s eyes, Xue Qianying was so beautiful and moving, so coldly beautiful like frost, so intoxicating. It was a pity that her aura was slipping away bit by bit, and the light in her eyes was gradually dimming.

“I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was you…”

Jiang Chen said in a low voice.

Xue Qianying gently covered Jiang Chen’s mouth with her slender, jade-like fingers.

“Don’t say sorry. All of this was destined. Perhaps we were simply fated to meet but not to be together. No matter how unworthy I am in your eyes, or how much you dislike me, from the moment you defeated everyone, I, Xue Qianying, became your woman. Whether you admit it or not, I, Xue Qianying, could never give myself to another man. Even though, in the end, what you wanted wasn’t me…”

When Xue Qianying said this, her eyes grew even dimmer and her heart was extremely cold and desolate, because Jiang Chen had said that what he wanted wasn’t her, but just a pill.

“Compared with the two women beside you, am I too ugly? Heh.”

Xue Qianying said with a bitter smile. It was as if an ugly duckling lived in her heart. Both Yan Qingcheng and Wu Ningzhu were so beautiful and so outstanding. Compared with them, she felt she couldn’t even begin to measure up.

“I know that in your heart, I’m just a passerby. But I hope that from now on, you’ll remember me. Don’t blame my adoptive father. He saved my life. Even if I was unwilling a thousand times over, this was my choice, and also my fate. Go quickly. You’re no match for them. Otherwise, even my death would be in vain…”

Xue Qianying gripped Jiang Chen’s hand tightly.

A peerless beauty who outshone all others perished at this moment.

The wind stopped and the clouds scattered, and Xue Qianying’s aura vanished without a trace.

Jiang Chen’s eyes became as tender as water and he nodded silently. He kept pouring the Myriad Qi of his Myriad Qi Body into Xue Qianying’s body, but it was all far, far too late. Even if a Great Emperor Realm expert were here, he might not be able to save her.

“Promise me… go quickly, and live well…”

Xue Qianying spat out a mouthful of blood, and her vitality slowly came to an end at this moment.

“Why were you so foolish, so foolish? How could you know that in my hands, they are no different from toys? So foolish.”

Jiang Chen sighed. His hands slowly began to tremble, and his gaze became extremely sharp as he murmured. A monstrous aura made everyone’s faces change. Jiang Chen’s aura was like that of a peerless devil god descending. That invisible storm made people’s hearts shake.

“It seems they knew each other long ago.”

Yan Qingcheng said in a low voice.

“Being willing to die for Little Chen shows that she isn’t a simple woman.”

Wu Ningzhu said quietly.

“Bi Chao, Tianlai Boundary, Tao Qianjun, Tongyou Boundary. Hahaha, today I will wash Tongyou in blood, and then trample Tianlai.”

When Jiang Chen raised his head again, he looked at Tao Qianjun and Bi Chao, and an aura of death filled the air. Both of them had to die!

“What big talk. Humph. I haven’t even had the chance to settle accounts with you yet. What’s so great about a stinking girl? The one who died was my precious son.”

Bi Chao roared.

“Even you plus your son, a thousand of your dog lives, aren’t worth a single finger of hers.”

Jiang Chen shook his head. When his eyes met Bi Chao’s, Bi Chao felt a palpitation in his heart. This guy’s eyes were truly terrifying. But so what? Terrifying eyes didn’t mean his strength was great. Nobody could change his mind today.

“My adopted daughter died because of you. Kid, I will never let you off.”

Tao Qianjun said viciously, showing his true ferocious face.
