Chapter 561 - A Plot for the Ferghana Stallion

Jiang Chen was incredibly fast. Carried by the Spatial Shift, Tyrant and Tan Lang were following Jiang Chen through the void, using none of their own strength. If they were to escape by themselves, they would be unable to escape from the two Ninth Grade Combat Kings.

While traveling through the void, Tyrant and Tan Lang were completely shocked by what they experienced. Jiang Chen knew too many tricks, and each of them were incredibly strong. Putting aside the amazing Heavenly Saint Sword, he even knew such a superb movement technique. They had only been escaping for a very short amount of time, and they were nearly unable to sense the auras of the two Ninth Grade Combat Kings who were chasing them. If they kept going at this speed, Jiang Chen would be able to completely ditch both Ninth Grade Combat Kings in just a few minutes. It was incredible, a Fifth Grade Combat King ditching two Ninth Grade Combat Kings who were chasing after him. If they weren’t experiencing this for themselves, they would have a hard time believing it to be true.

A few minutes later, the two Ninth Grade Combat Kings appeared above a wilderness. The two men wore the same unsightly expressions, because they had just completely lost trace of Jiang Chen’s aura. This also meant that two Ninth Grade Combat Kings had completely failed to chase after a Fifth Grade Combat King. It was humiliation to these two Ninth Grade Combat Kings, and at the same time, it was also a helpless situation.

”We've lost him.”

One of the elders said with a gloomy expression.

“Damn it, how can that guys possess such great speed? What kind of movement technique is that? It actually allows a Fifth Grade Combat King to escape with such incredible speed.”

Elder Liu felt gloomy as well.

”What should we do? Shall we continue the pursuit?”

The Elder asked.

“Pursue? How? We can’t even see the dust they’re leaving us in!”

Elder Liu glared at the other Elder. In such a situation, it was meaningless to continue pursuing, as they had no idea which direction Jiang Chen was headed, and they had no clue where his destination was. They would be idiots if they continued to pursue.

“Many disciples of the Asura Palace were killed by him, so we can’t just let him go. Why don’t we go inform the Palace Chief and let him capture this guy as soon as possible? This guy is growing too fast, in just a few months, he has reached a stage where he can kill an Eighth Grade Combat King.”

The Elder worriedly said. Although the Asura Palace didn’t have to worry about him with his current strength, the speed of his growth was truly frightening. In just a few months, he had grown from a mere First Grade Combat King to a Fifth Grade Combat King, and was capable of killing an Eighth Grade Combat King. Speed like this was worth fearing. If they allowed him to continue growing, sooner or later, even a Ninth Grade Combat King would be unable to defeat him, and he would eventually bring a calamity to the Asura Palace.

“No, the trip to Mount Luoxia is very important for the Palace Chief. He wants to help the Great Tycoon seize the title of number one genius in the Liang Province, and fighting with the three geniuses from the other three major powers can help him greatly with breaking through to the Combat Emperor realm. If he manages to seize the number one title, he will most likely be taken in by a superpower of the Xuan Region. At that point of time, our Asura Palace will have a huge backing. As for that Jiang Chen, he won’t become too strong in just two days.”

Elder Liu said. Although killing Jiang Chen was important, the competition on Mount Luoxia was even more important, as it concerned the glory of the Asura Palace.

In the end, left with no other alternative, the two elders returned to where they came from.

Deep within a valley, the trio emerged from the void and descended into the valley from the skies. It wasn’t a huge valley, but it wasn’t small either. Though, it looked rather desolate. Aside from a small pond, the valley was filled with rocks that were scattered about.

“Little Chen, what king of movement skill are you using? It’s really frightening, even the Ninth Grade Combat Kings were unable to catch up!”

Unable to hold his curiosity, Tyrant asked.

“And it was under the situation where you had to carry both of us as well. If you were alone, doesn’t that mean you can travel even faster?”

Tan Lang said with a sigh. Following Jiang Chen was a journey full of surprises.

“The skill I used is called the Spatial Shift. As long as I want to run away, no Ninth Grade Combat Kings will be able to catch up with me. However, it’s really strange. After causing such a huge commotion, why didn’t Li Tianyang or Xiao Nanfeng show up? If my memory serves me correct, the Asura Palace has two Combat Emperors. Also, Li Tianyang and Xiao Nanfeng both have a strong desire to kill me, and since they know I’ve returned, shouldn’t they come here themselves, instead of sending those two old fools after me?”

Jiang Chen furrowed his brows, feeling that something was amiss. If Li Tianyang and the Great Elder hadn’t gone to Mount Luoxia together with Xiao Nanfeng, they would have showed up immediately. Jiang Chen was rather impulsive today. If Li Tianyang had come personally, he would be trapped in a nasty situation once again. Apparently, luck was on Jiang Chen’s side.

“When you were slaughtering those disciples, I heard something from the crowd. It seems like all the Combat Emperors of the four major powers brought their number one genius to Mount Luoxia. They are having a competition among each other, fighting for the title of the Liang Province’s number one genius. It looks like Li Tianyang and the other Combat Emperor of the Asura Palace brought Xiao Nanfeng to Mount Luoxia. If not for that, I’m sure they all would have come here.”
