Chapter 2502: Chapter 2505: Teaching Directly

”Senior Lei, Fire Phoenix, why are you all here?”

Jiang Chen looked at Lei Kai and the others in surprise.

”Let’s talk inside!”

Pang Guang gently reminded them with a smile.

Everyone hurried into the room.

”Senior Zhuo, Liu Mei?”

Seeing Zhuo Bufan and Liu Mei, Jiang Chen was momentarily stunned.

When he noticed Su Qingluan smiling to the side, Jiang Chen’s face showed a touch of embarrassment: ”Elder Su, I’m sorry, I broke my promise, I...”

”Alright, I know all about your situation, I’m not surprised you did it this way!”

Su Qingluan tucked her hair behind her ear and said with a light laugh, ”However, don’t think you can escape. I finally found someone with such strong Formation Path talent; I have to teach you well, and I’m waiting for you to help me too!”

”Help?”

Jiang Chen was briefly startled, then solemnly replied, ”Elder Su, whatever you need, just say it. If I can do it, I won’t refuse; if I can’t do it now, I will certainly strive to achieve it!”

Jiang Chen felt deep gratitude toward Su Qingluan; if not for her teaching him the body formation technique, he couldn’t even count how many times he would’ve died on this abandoned plain.

Facing one powerful opponent after another, the technique of body formation had helped him tremendously.

”Haha, good, then you’d better try hard. You’re no help to me now. When you’re able to set up Spirit Arrays using Spiritual Seals instead of Spirit Stones, and make them as strong as you do with Spirit Stones, then we can talk about helping!”

Su Qingluan remarked with a teasing smile.

”Absolutely! I’ll give it my all!”

Jiang Chen nodded heavily.

”Is this young lady a Grandmaster of Spiritual Arrays?”

Yan Li’s eyes brightened upon hearing this, as he sized up Su Qingluan and softly inquired.

Su Qingluan glanced at Yan Li, then turned her gaze to Jiang Chen.

”Oh, this is...”

Jiang Chen introduced the two groups.

”An Inner Court Elder at Changling Academy!?”

Upon hearing Su Qingluan’s status, Yan Li looked at her in astonishment.

At Late Integration Realm, Su Qingluan shouldn’t qualify to be an Inner Court Elder at Changling Academy. Although there’s one exception at the academy—a strong Unity Realm Stage figure who was promoted as an Inner Court Elder despite not meeting the standard—Yan Li knew who that was, Jiang Chen’s master, not this beautiful and serene lady.

”Senior Yan Li, when it comes to formations, I’m just a nobody in front of Elder Su!”

Jiang Chen spoke with a light laugh.

Yan Li’s eyes flashed with surprise, quickly followed by a look of delight.

The minimum qualification for an Inner Court Elder at Changling Academy is Integration Realm Peak, and for Su Qingluan to be an elder at Late Integration Realm and a master of Spiritual Arrays, Yan Li’s conjectures were now confirmed thanks to Jiang Chen’s indirect affirmation.

”I wonder if Miss Su would like to join us on our journey?”

Yan Li invited her outright.

”Senior Yan Li!”

Jiang Chen intervened softly, cutting off Yan Li’s words: ”You can’t just invite Elder Su with compensation; it’s likely they’ll journey with me instead.”

”Likely? I almost got eaten alive trying to find you!”

Zhuo Bufan glared at Jiang Chen with feigned annoyance, ”Now that I’ve found you, there’s no way I’ll let you venture this abandoned plain alone!”

”Are you being fierce to Brother Jiang Chen?”

Mu Ling’er squinted with a smile at Zhuo Bufan.

Seeing Mu Ling’er’s bright smile, Zhuo Bufan shivered and quickly grabbed Jiang Chen’s hand with a look of relief: ”Junior Jiang, I’m so glad we found you safe and sound. If we didn’t, I planned to kill Gui Ying as a precaution!”

”Gui Ying?”

Jiang Chen was struck by Zhuo Bufan’s antics, but hearing Gui Ying’s name, a surge of killing intent rose within him, wiping the smile off his face.

Both Jiang Chen and Yan Hu exuded a chilling murderous aura.

”Uh... what’s happening?”

Zhuo Bufan was puzzled, frozen in place.

”Junior, what’s wrong?”

Yun Tao furrowed his brow; Jiang Chen’s demeanor now was akin to when he faced Zhang Tian earlier, prompting Yun Tao’s suspicion.

Everyone in the room glanced toward Jiang Chen.

”Gui Ying!”

Jiang Chen inhaled deeply, speaking in a flat tone: ”He was one of those behind the near destruction of my hometown, from the eleven forces, the Dark Shrine!”

”Dark Shrine!?”

Zhuo Bufan, Lei Kai, Fire Phoenix, Pang Guang, and Yan Li paused in unfamiliarity with Jiang Chen’s past.

Su Qingluan knew, showing a flash of coldness on her face.

Yun Tao, determined, uttered fiercely: ”Brother, next time we meet him, we’ll kill him together. He’s merely a Semi-Saint; outside we’re no match, but here on the plain, we’ll fight to the death!”

”Next time I won’t let him escape!”

Jiang Chen declared coldly.

”Next time? You’ve encountered Gui Ying before?”

Su Qingluan sensed deep meanings in Jiang Chen’s words, asking in astonishment.

Everyone froze, then lifted their heads to gaze at Jiang Chen.

”Yes, we wanted to encircle him, but he fled when he saw he couldn’t overpower us!”

Jiang Chen nodded lightly.

”Ah, startled me! So you faced him together, not alone?”

Zhuo Bufan feigned irritation: ”Please make that clear next time!”

Jiang Chen smiled briefly, gazing at everyone as he sincerely said, ”Thank you.”

Startled, the group soon realized the bond between them had deepened, all smiling quietly.

For Su Qingluan and the others to brave danger to find him, hints in their words revealed they did so fearing Gui Ying might trouble Jiang Chen. He had taken note of this indebtedness deeply.

”Quit the pleasantries; how about something practical? Can you teach me the Sky-Cleaving Strike? Won’t let you suffer; I’ll exchange something. I have a top-tier Earth Rank combat skill here, I...”

Zhuo Bufan waved a hand, eyes gleaming at Jiang Chen.

Before Zhuo Bufan could finish, Jiang Chen handed him a Long Spear, alongside a Jade Slip.

”Senior Zhuo, here you go—the Jade Slip holds the Sky-Cleaving Strike technique, and the spear would serve you better than it served me!”

Jiang Chen offered with a light smile.

”But, this...”

Zhuo Bufan was momentarily stunned. He only joked to lighten the mood, not expecting Jiang Chen’s generosity—giving him the Sky-Cleaving Strike technique and offering the Sky-Cleaving Spear as well.
