Chapter 2766: Chapter 2769: Far Too Contrived

The Golden Armor General looked at Jiang Chen with surprise. By saying this, he essentially kicked the ball back, asking him to find a way to smooth things over. This is...

Glancing at Mu Youlan, the Golden Armor General fell into contemplation. This isn’t going to be easy; spying on another’s Sea of Consciousness is a capital offense that warrants immediate execution, but...

He glared at Chen Gang again, the Golden Armor General slightly furrowed his brows.

Jiang Chen was somewhat puzzled and turned to look at Mu Youlan with confusion.

”Spying on another’s Sea of Consciousness, a capital offense, warrants immediate execution; it’s an iron rule left by past commanders!”

Mu Youlan noticed Jiang Chen’s confusion and explained via sound transmission: ”I was impulsive. Chen Gang probably didn’t mean any harm; he’s just a brute. He must have guessed your identity and wanted to verify it. War Array Masters tend to condense Battle Formation Spirit Seals in their Sea of Consciousness!”

Jiang Chen understood in his heart, but felt somewhat helpless. Although he was indeed a War Array Master, he had never condensed a Battle Formation Spirit Seal, so how could he possibly spy?

Seeing the Golden Armor General’s predicament and Mu Youlan saying that Chen Gang meant no harm, Jiang Chen also didn’t wish for a Unity Realm Stage leader to die just upon his arrival.

Quickly thinking, Jiang Chen raised his hand to clasp his fists towards Chen Gang: ”Thank you, Teacher, for your concern. Although the Blood Fiend Aura is dense in this space, my Sea of Consciousness hasn’t been eroded by it, thanks for your help!”

Everyone around him was stunned again, looking at Jiang Chen with a mix of surprise.

Mu Youlan showed a helpless expression, muttering: ”That’s too far-fetched!”

The Golden Armor General and Chen Gang froze for a moment, not knowing how to respond!

Jiang Chen gave Mu Youlan a reassuring smile, then clasped his fists and bowed to the Golden Armor General and Chen Gang again: ”Changlin Academy student Jiang Chen greets the old Dean, and Teacher Chen Gang. Didn’t expect my news would reach here, making the teacher want to help expel the Blood Fiend Aura upon seeing me, you’ve gone to great lengths!”

”You are...”

Chen Gang’s expression changed, exclaiming in surprise.

Clap!

A crisp sound echoed as the Golden Armor General slapped Chen Gang’s shoulder, cutting him off: ”Haha, you rascal, you recognized Jiang Chen yet I didn’t. Next time, be more careful and don’t let your impulsiveness cause misunderstandings.”

As he spoke, the Golden Armor General squeezed Chen Gang’s shoulder, almost digging his fingers in.

”Yes, haha, I was just worried seeing a student!”

Chen Gang gritted his teeth against the pain in his shoulder, forcing a smile.

”Haha, it was all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding!”

The Golden Armor General released the suppression of the Fire Phoenix, and Mu Youlan retracted it.

”Let’s disperse, it was all a misunderstanding!”

The Golden Armor General waved to the surrounding people, then turned to Jiang Chen and Mu Youlan: ”Jiang Chen, Youlan, come inside and sit for a while.”

”Yes!”

Jiang Chen chuckled and nodded.

Mu Youlan felt tense; with the matter resolved, she began to worry that Chen Gang and the others might try to recruit him. She wanted to refuse, but since Jiang Chen had already agreed, their meeting as fellow academy members was a rare opportunity. She couldn’t stop him and could only nod worriedly.

The four headed towards the main camp, Mu Youlan sticking closely to Jiang Chen, holding his arm with a nervous expression.

Jiang Chen glanced at Mu Youlan, smiled wryly but said nothing.

Sound of fabric rustling.

Upon entering the tent, the Golden Armor General waved his hand, letting the tent door fall. A five-colored barrier enveloped the tent from within.

Thud!

With a dull thud, the Golden Armor General kicked Chen Gang’s abdomen, sending him flying.

Bam!

Chen Gang crashed against the barrier, causing it to shake violently.

Pff!

Spitting a mouthful of blood, Chen Gang harshly fell to the ground.

”You fool! Spying on another’s Sea of Consciousness—what are you trying to do? You want to die, I’ll fulfill that wish and clean up the house right now!”

The Golden Armor General shouted angrily and, with a swift move, rushed over and started beating Chen Gang.

Thud thud thud!

A series of dull thuds rang out; before Jiang Chen could intervene, Chen Gang was already lying on the ground, more dead than alive.

”Young friend, this is Chen Gang’s fault. I apologize on his behalf, please don’t take it to heart!”

The Golden Armor General clasped his fists towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen hurriedly returned the salute, just about to speak, but the Golden Armor General’s voice rang out again: ”Thank you, young friend, for coming up with a way to smooth things over. May I ask which force you’re from? Perhaps your elders are here; I can help find them.”

”Dean, you’re already my elder from the force I’m part of!”

Jiang Chen felt amused yet helpless, finally understanding why the Golden Armor General was so courteous.

”Ah?”

The Golden Armor General was slightly taken aback, then glanced at Mu Youlan: ”What do you mean? Didn’t Youlan tell you I’m from Changlin Academy?”

”General of the Sword, why would I introduce you without reason? He’s from our corps. If I introduce someone, it’d be our main general!”

Mu Youlan replied irritably.

”This...”

The Golden Armor General froze momentarily, then suddenly widened his eyes, looking at Jiang Chen incredulously: ”You-you’re really from Changlin Academy? How did you recognize me?”

Chen Gang, who was lying on the ground, scrambled up, looking at Jiang Chen in disbelief; he too thought Jiang Chen knew they were from Changlin Academy, hence the way he mediated.

Sound of rushing wind.

Jiang Chen smiled slightly without speaking, and with a thought, Five-colored Divine Light erupted from within him, gathering above his head into a Five-Colored Longsword with a phantom character ’Seal’ on its blade.

”Five Elements Demon Sealing Sword?!”

”You’ve mastered the Five Elements Demon Sealing Sword? You’re truly a student of Changlin Academy?”

The Golden Armor General and five others exclaimed, eyes showing surprise.

”I am indeed a student of Changlin Academy. It was seeing the old Dean perform the operation method of the Five Elements Demon Sealing Sword that I recognized you.”

Jiang Chen smiled slightly: ”The academy records that since the first Dean left it, no one has successfully practiced the Five Elements Demon Sealing Sword, and the most likely to succeed, the seventh Dean Jian Potian, disappeared fifty thousand years ago. When you performed this method, I recognized you as Jian Potian, the old Dean. And since you say Commander Chen Gang is your disciple, it’s not inappropriate for me to call him Teacher, right?”

”Haha! Not inappropriate at all! Not inappropriate at all! Haha... incredible! Incredible!”

Jian Potian laughed heartily, full of satisfaction: ”No expectations that Changlin Academy produced another student capable of learning the Five Elements Demon Sealing Sword, impressive! Impressive! Haha...”

Chen Gang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, also showing a pleased expression.

”Jiang Chen, how is the academy now? Is everything well?”

After laughing, Jian Potian looked at Jiang Chen with anticipation.

Jiang Chen’s expression changed slightly, hesitated, then quietly spoke of Changlin Academy’s current situation.
