Eps. 296 — Bad News
Jian Chen was sure the old man was not Dong Xu, the head of the Black Temple but rather one of the Elders or his right hand.
"I didn't think anyone would be crazy enough to disturb the Black Temple residence, what now is our organization that has been underestimated so that a young man can freely mess up the headquarters?" The old man finally opened his voice, his tone quite sinister to Jian Chen.
"Hm, you're definitely not the leader of this organization, where's your chairman?" Jian Chen was thinking of something else.
Dong Xu should have come out when his base was disturbed but after Jian Chen had killed some of their members, the appearance of the Black Shrine's Chief was still not visible to his nose.
"Hmph! You're not worthy enough to meet our Chairman, I'll take your life..." The old man suddenly jumped up and attacked Jian Chen with his palm strike, Jian Chen attacked with a similar attack until the two sites clashed and caused a shock wave.
The expression of the old man became tense as he sensed Jian Chen's strength, he took a distance of several meters with his opponent.
In just one fight, the old man had already realized Jian Chen was the Celestial Realm swordsman he thought.
"Your abilities aren't bad, it's worth it that you dare attack this base." The man smiled widely, covering up the anxiety in his heart.
"You're not my opponent, if I'm serious, you won't survive three attacks from me..." Jian Chen glanced at the members of the Black Temple for a while, he then concluded that Dong Xu was not at his base.
'It seems like today I can only destroy the headquarters...' Jian Chen sighed, preferably after this he should find out where their leader went as well.
The old man reacted to Jian Chen's words and took it as an insult, he drew his sword. "I'm not your opponent? I'll teach you his name in despair!"
Jian Chen gave instructions for Jian Ya to retreat a few steps away from him, seeing the old man running towards him with killing intent, thus making Jian Chen smile cynically and assuming his opponent was easily provoked by emotion.
Jian Chen canceled his intention to draw the asura sword, against the old man it was not necessary to let out his navel.
The old man swung his sword while Jian Chen faced him with his bare hands. The members of the Black Shrine looked towards their Elders fight to the point of speechlessness, they could see Jian Chen's strength being higher than his supreme elder.
'Shall-! His strength turned out to be this great!'
The old man cursed, he already had a premonition that Jian Chen was not an indiscriminate swordsman but still did not suspect that someone who looked so young had this high strength.
The old man started to regret having dealt with Jian Chen.
The fight between the two did not last long because in a few exchanges of skill Jian Chen had the old man thrown before spewing fresh blood in his mouth.
Seeing their Elders being defeated like that made the members of the Black Temple so aware of the situation, without thinking they immediately ran in various directions.
"Where you're going, I'm not gonna let you get away with it..."
Jian Chen whipped out his sword and started killing the Black Temple members who were trying to run away, Jian Ya also went along to eradicate them.
As the two were preoccupied by the members, the old man swallowed some healing pills to ease the pain of Jian Chen's punch, he felt his ribs completely broken.
The old man began to eliminate his existence and quietly flew away, leaving the location of his headquarters, the action quickly realized Jian Chen.
Jian Chen took out a disc in his spatial ring which he obtained while fighting against the organization in another province. The disc has a quality that is beyond doubt.
Jian Chen flowed his discs with the wind element before throwing at the old man.
The old man realized Jian Chen threw a weapon at him, seeing the speed of the disc moving faster than the flying man tried to deflect his direction to change direction.
Jian Chen of course realized that but one thing was beyond the calculation of the old man, when the disc he threw was parried, Jian Chen deflected the direction of his disc and returned to the old man.
The specialty of the discs that Jian Chen threw aside from having good quality could also be controlled remotely.
The old man did not expect the disc he was fending off would turn again towards him, the disk clad in sharp wind elements instantly cut the body of the old man like tofu and made him breathe out last.
From his eyes that were still wide open, that old man clearly did not accept that he died in this tragic state.
Jian Chen then proceeded to finish off the remaining members of the Black Shrine, as the numbers were already not many anymore, Jian Chen and Jian Ya could easily kill all of them.
Of course even though they ran in various directions, Jian Chen or Jian Ya could easily catch up to him let alone both of them being able to fly quickly.
Jian Chen had time to interrogate one of the members of the latter, asking about the whereabouts of Dong Xu and the other members.
Jian Chen knew the number of organizations the Black Shrine had had members of thousands.
Supposedly conquering the Black Shrine Organization would take quite a long time for Jian Chen though but since the number of members in his headquarters was only around two hundred people made Jian Chen and Jian Ya could go faster eliminate their organization from the time it should be.
"Chairman Xu and the other members are conducting an inter-organizational gathering, I don't know exactly but they said to be planning an assault strategy..."
Jian Chen and Jian Ya looked at each other, assault? Both of them reacted to the word considering that the Jian clan had been attacked twice.
From that member Jian Chen learned that the criminal organizations were still conducting alliances. Even the alliance was greater than before to include all the organizations in the Lightning Dragon Province.
"Assault strategy?" Jian Chen frowned. "Do you know what purpose they're going to attack in which city?"
"I'm not sure but I vaguely heard they were going to attack the Capital of Lightning Dragon Province, Qianshan City, he said they would plan on making a strategy to overthrow the government."
Jian Chen's expression changed, and suddenly his premonition worsened upon hearing this. Jian Ya also seemed to show her anxiety.
"Tell me, when are you going to attack the capital?!" Jian Chen pulled the collar of the Black Temple member's robe hard.
"That's..."
The latter member said that should the operation to overthrow the government of the capital be carried out tonight if the calculations are not wrong.
"Wire-wearing! We have to go to Qianshan City!" Jian Chen clucked in annoyance.
