Chapter 3266 – The Battle of Sword Souls
“You bunch of bastards, I, Jiang Chen, will never let you off.”
Jiang Chen’s eyes were sharp as he said angrily in a deep voice. He had never expected Baichi Huayu and Jiahe Quanshan to be this shameless. One must never let down one’s guard against others, and he had been prepared to some extent, but the combined impact of the three of them was still hard for him to resist alone. In an instant he was stuck to the two great weapon souls, and his situation became even more dangerous.
“Hahaha, this is your fate. You still want to get out? Dream on! Those two weapon souls couldn’t be defeated even with the combined strength of the four of us. And you think you can? You’ll die without a burial place, brat. This is your destiny.”
Jiahe Quanshan said with a big laugh. The only pity was that his younger brother was already dead too.
“Leaving you behind to be buried with my younger brother isn’t a bad thing either.”
Jiahe Quanshan said disdainfully. For them, Jiang Chen’s death meant one less competitor, which was very good. Especially since this guy was so arrogant, they wished they could get rid of Jiang Chen directly. Baichi Huayu most of all. The anger in his heart could be imagined. The dream lover he longed for day and night had even given this guy a handkerchief, and the two of them were all tangled up together. Baichi Huayu thought about how to kill Jiang Chen every moment. With such a good opportunity, how could they let it go?
“It’s over, it’s over, it’s over. This time Brother Jiang is probably in danger.”
Wude said in a low voice, his eyes full of pity. But at this moment, the water-blue gateway was about to close, and Tantai Jingzang resolutely leapt out and went straight to Jiang Chen.
“Tantai!!!”
Baichi Huayu’s face changed drastically. He tried to grab Tantai Jingzang’s hand, but she knocked his hand aside. There was neither joy nor sorrow in Tantai Jingzang’s eyes, and toward Baichi Huayu, there was only coldness.
In her heart, Tantai Jingzang did not want to owe anyone anything. Jiang Chen especially had risked his life to come and rescue them, only to be betrayed by those people. If Jiang Chen died, the guilt in her heart would never be smoothed over for the rest of her life. Jiang Chen had ended up trapped because he saved her. If not for her, he could have left with Wude, but he had not done that. He had stepped forward and saved her, and ended up trapped himself. At a time like this, how could Tantai Jingzang just stand by and watch? She had to advance and retreat together with Jiang Chen.
“You crazy woman.”
Baichi Huayu could not help saying. But at this moment, the water-blue gateway had already closed completely, and Jiang Chen and Tantai Jingzang were both trapped here. It was as good as a dead end.
Baichi Huayu hesitated over whether to go and save Tantai Jingzang, but reason still won out over so-called love. As long as he one day became a Great Emperor that the whole world looked up to and all under heaven revered, would he be short of women? Every woman in the world would be throwing herself into his arms. The pull of the Great Emperor Realm was just too, too great for them, so they had to do this. Even their own brothers could only be given up. That was true for Baili Changyang, and true for Jiahe Quanshan as well.
The timid are no gentlemen, and without ruthlessness one is no true man!
Watching that door of hope gradually close, Jiang Chen glanced at Tantai Jingzang. Her expression was composed, but it carried obvious apology.
“I’m sorry. I dragged you into this.”
Tantai Jingzang and Jiang Chen struck together against the two great weapon souls, but they could not hold them off at all. Both of them were driven back again and again. It had to be said that the power of the weapon souls was just too great to resist. Even if Jiang Chen used every trick he had, he might not be able to crush them. After all, these two were now undying and indestructible. And they were puppets, puppets with consciousness. That was the most frightening part. With divine weapons in hand, it was as if they had divine help, and they were not the least bit weaker than Divine Emperor Realm experts.
“There’s nothing to say. The human heart is unfathomable, that’s all. I saved them, and they repaid kindness with hatred. That’s pitiful human nature. Heh heh. But they won’t necessarily come to a good end either.”
Jiang Chen said as he fought the weapon souls with all his might, but their situation was becoming harder and harder.
Tantai Jingzang was silent, because she really had nothing to say.
“You didn’t leave either, did you? You didn’t abandon me, so everything I did for you was worth it. I don’t care if they abandoned me, but if you had abandoned me, I really would have been hurt.”
Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.
Tantai Jingzang blushed. His words made her heart ripple a little. Jiang Chen really was a man with a lot of character. This guy was very annoying, but he valued feelings and loyalty. On that point, the two of them were exactly alike.
“Thank you for saying that to me.”
“Don’t get any ideas. I didn’t come here for you. I came to look for treasure too. Being dragged into the water by you was something I didn’t see coming at all.”
Jiang Chen said, which made Tantai Jingzang so angry that she rolled her eyes. She had not said anything, had she? Wasn’t he the one reading too much into it? Tantai Jingzang had been full of gratitude toward Jiang Chen, but at this moment she found this guy incredibly annoying. He was clearly sacrificing himself for others, yet he made people feel he had his own agenda. This guy was just too annoying.
“We’re still stuck in a predicament and can’t get ourselves out. We should think about how to leave, shouldn’t we? If we sit and wait for death, these two will just grind us down bit by bit.”
Tantai Jingzang said coldly, returning to her icy self. She could not show this Jiang Chen a good face. Otherwise, give him an inch and he would take a mile.
“Step aside. I’m enough on my own.”
Jiang Chen said.
“At a time like this, why make a distinction between us? How could you possibly handle them alone? Even when the four of us fought them before, these two almost badly injured us.”
Tantai Jingzang said angrily. Jiang Chen was being far too cocky. At a moment of life and death, he actually wanted to carry it all alone. Tantai Jingzang would never let all the pressure fall on Jiang Chen.
“Sigh, why won’t you just believe me?”
Jiang Chen smiled bitterly, helpless. Was he really that untrustworthy?
“I know your strength very well. How could you possibly deal with these two weapon souls?”
Tantai Jingzang shook her head and said. Jiang Chen knew she was worried about him, but at this point, this was the only way he had left.
“Now it’s time to let it out of its sheath.”
A cold smile curled at the corner of Jiang Chen’s mouth. He could not deal with these two weapon souls himself, but the Heavenly Dragon Sword would definitely not let him down.
“Get out of my way!”
Jiang Chen shouted angrily. The Heavenly Dragon Sword let out a startling dragon’s roar, and its sword soul left the sheath. At that moment, both weapon souls were knocked back.
“Yiwa! Yiwa! There’s something good to eat!”
At this moment, the sword soul of the Heavenly Dragon Sword let out a cry like a baby’s, extremely excited. Tantai Jingzang’s expression froze as she stared at the scene in disbelief. The Heavenly Dragon Sword could talk?
