Dragon-Marked War God

Jiang Chen’s words made Wu Chongjiu’s expression change. He shook all over and stared blankly at Jiang Chen, almost unable to believe it.

“You’re saying… King Ba An is your master?”

“You could say that. A master’s kindness is like a mountain. That I could break your Drifting Formation is all thanks to Senior King Ba An. If not for Senior King Ba An, my attainments in formations would surely be too miserable to look at.”

Jiang Chen said with a smile, a hint of apology at the corners of his mouth.

“How can you prove you’re my father’s disciple?”

Wu Chongjiu’s gaze was burning.

“Without seeing the No Beginning, the formation is empty. Everything I have achieved today came from Senior King Ba An’s No Beginning Formation.”

Jiang Chen’s face was solemn and respectful.

Wu Chongjiu nodded silently, deeply moved in his heart. What a ridiculous drama this was. His own father’s disciple had destroyed the formation he had laid down with his own hands, plunging the Wu Divine Clan into dire straits.

“Is this person really the Eighth Lord’s disciple? What a failure. He actually broke the Drifting Formation. Isn’t that cutting off our own hands and feet?”

“Sigh, isn’t it? If he weren’t King Ba An’s disciple, who could have broken our Ninth Lord’s Drifting Formation? But the current situation is really bad for our Wu Divine Clan.”

“King Ba An’s disciple is at least half a member of our Wu Divine Clan. It’s just a pity this guy helped outsiders. Now, with his strength alone, can he really change the situation?”

“Hard to say. Our Wu Divine Clan is now attacked from front and rear. This Long Family harbors evil intentions. This battle will be very difficult.”

More and more people were gathering. After all, this was the Wu Divine Clan’s territory. Everyone was sighing, and even Wu Chongjiu’s face was grave. He did not dare to be the least bit careless.

“I am King Ba An’s son. You can also call me King Jiu An. Wu Chongjiu.”

Wu Chongjiu took a deep breath and said. He had never thought his father actually had a disciple out there. Even he had known nothing about it. And Jiang Chen had used his supreme attainments in formations to break the Drifting Formation that he had spent more than ten years laying down. It was truly a case of the flood washing away the Dragon King’s own temple, one family failing to recognize its own.

“Breaking the Drifting Formation was something I had no choice about. Brother Wu, please forgive me.”

Jiang Chen also smiled bitterly. He had used the skills that this man’s father taught him to break the son’s formation, and had put the entire Wu Divine Clan in peril. It was inevitable that he felt some guilt.

Wu Chongjiu sighed and shook his head helplessly. It was too late to say anything now, because Long Yinyue was already eyeing them greedily.

“Heh heh, this really is interesting. King Ba An’s disciple? No wonder he could break the Ninth Lord’s formation. I really find it a bit hard to believe now. What a dramatic scene. Unfortunately, it’s too late to say anything now. The Wu Divine Clan is destined to become cannon fodder.”

Long Yinyue said with a chuckle, not taking Jiang Chen seriously at all. He was just someone at the Early Divine Emperor Realm, whose attainments in formations were rather admirable, that was all. Now that the whole Drifting Formation was broken, what use was he? This guy’s appearance meant nothing anymore. Just kill him.

“I’ll naturally settle the trouble I caused. Today, whoever dares take half a step into the Wu Divine Clan will be fighting me, Jiang Chen, to the death. Brother Wu, today I can only fight side by side with you, to atone for the crime of breaking your formation.”

Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Wu Chongjiu waved his hand and said:

“The Wu Divine Clan was fated to face this calamity and couldn’t escape it. Even if it weren’t you, there would have been someone else. That is heaven’s will. But with Brother Jiang here, my heart is at ease. If my father’s spirit is in heaven, he will surely be overjoyed in his old age.”

Jiang Chen’s eyes narrowed, and he said in a low voice:

“Senior King Ba An, he…”

“My father dissipated between heaven and earth long ago.”

Wu Chongjiu said sadly.

“Today, I will live and die with Brother Wu, advance and retreat together.”

Jiang Chen made up his mind. All this had happened because of him, so Jiang Chen had to redeem himself and block this life-and-death battle for the Wu Divine Clan.

“Little brat, so what if you’re King Ba An’s disciple? An Early Divine Emperor wants to sway the outcome of the battle? Your existence means nothing to me.”

Long Yinyue said confidently. Although he had not expected this scene, Jiang Chen’s arrogance really made him want to laugh. Did this guy really think he was some peerless god of war who could turn the tide? Were his seventeen Early Divine Emperor experts and hundreds upon thousands of Hierarch experts all good-for-nothings?

Jiang Chen smiled faintly, confident and composed.

“If I wanted to kill you, it would be as easy as drinking water, as easy as taking something out of my pocket. A mere Long Family is really nothing to me.”

Jiang Chen’s “arrogance” made Long Yinyue very angry. His face darkened and his eyes narrowed as he stared fixedly at Jiang Chen. This guy was simply too arrogant. His Long Family was one of the four great powers of the Earth Divine Land. Even the Wu Divine Clan, with its countless years of legacy, could only defend passively and did not dare to fight lightly. They had even shrunk their battlefield and relied on the Drifting Formation for defense to barely hold the line. And Jiang Chen actually wanted to resist the Long Family on his own with such arrogance. Wasn’t that a fantasy?

“Good, good, good. It looks like I really should teach all of you a good lesson. It’s a good thing for a newborn calf not to fear tigers, but arrogance and conceit are destined to receive their due punishment. My Long Family has dominated the Earth Divine Land for countless years, and I, Long, have never seen anyone as arrogant as you. The Wu Divine Clan is sure to be ruined in your hands. Hahaha.”

Long Yinyue pointed at Jiang Chen. The coldness in his smile was enough to make one’s heart tremble.

“Brother Jiang, don’t underestimate the enemy. The Long Family is powerful, and Long Yinyue is no ordinary person either.”

Wu Chongjiu said in a low voice. The people of the Long Family were in high spirits, each with murderous intent in their eyes, ready to move.

“I know what I’m doing.”

Jiang Chen nodded and glanced at Wu Chongjiu. He was already prepared for battle. Besides, Jiang Chen absolutely would not let the Wu Divine Clan fall into such a plight. Otherwise, wouldn’t he bear infamy for all time? Once the Long Family defeated the Wu Divine Clan, blood would surely flow like rivers and the world would be turned upside down. By then, it would be a human tragedy beyond imagining. Moreover, Wu Chongjiu was King Ba An’s descendant, so Jiang Chen even more could not let them come to the slightest harm. Whether it was to repay kindness or to make up for his own mistake, the responsibility was Jiang Chen’s and his alone.

“Hahaha, very well, I’ll grant your wish and let you die together with the people of the Wu Divine Clan, advance and retreat together, live and perish together, just as you wish.”

Long Yinyue roared wildly. The tension was at its peak. Long Yinyue held a great dragon-shaped saber and pointed it straight at Jiang Chen!

“Come on. Let me see just what you’re made of.”

The corners of Jiang Chen’s mouth curled up slightly, without the slightest courtesy. With a stretch of his hand, the Heavenly Dragon Sword came out, and Long Yinyue’s expression immediately turned grave.
