Chapter 550 - Sikong Sword Saint
Apart from the Lianyunshan Mountains, the three of them walked on a relatively hidden path and headed in Yun Mengze's direction.
”Two hundred miles ahead, there is a small city called White City. It is the place where I was born and spent my childhood.” Jian Chen said with a deep expression.
”White City? Third Brother, do you want to go back and take a look? It won't take long anyway. ” Long Chen said. In fact, Jian Chen's current predicament was somewhat similar to his. If he were to pa.s.s by Bai Yang Town, he would definitely go back to take a look.
”No need, with my current ident.i.ty, there's no need to go back. Besides, my parents have already died, my grandparents are no longer around, and I'm not very close with the others. If I go back and cause trouble for them, it'll be bad.” Jian Chen thought for a while, then shook his head and said.
”Third Brother, you're really a naughty girl. Even if you don't want to go, you can look at her from afar.” Lan Ling'er said.
”Alright, it has been almost ten years since I last returned, but such a change has happened in these ten years. Back then, I had such a big ambition and joined the ranks of the Martial Alliance, did I ever think that I would meet such a end?” Looking into the distance, Jian Chen's eyes were full of helplessness.
”We are all born eagles. We don't have any power to restrain them.” Long Chen suddenly said.
Jian Chen and Lan Ling'er both nodded. They both loved freedom, so they came together.
The wolf cub's speed far exceeded the speed of the electric claw, so it was very easy for him to travel the distance of two hundred li. Soon, he would arrive at his destination. As he neared the place where he was born, Jian Chen's strength gave rise to a hint of antic.i.p.ation.
They gradually drew closer.
Long Chen raised his head and indeed, he saw a small city in front of him. The small city wasn't too big, but it looked very peaceful. However, in this peaceful small city, why would there be some noise coming from there?
Long Chen looked carefully and saw that there seemed to be a lot of people on the city walls. However, the city gates were tightly shut.
”Third Brother, something seems to have happened in White City.” Initially, the three people only wanted to take a look at it before leaving immediately. However, after discovering the abnormality, Long Chen hurriedly reminded them.
Lan Ling'er and Jian Chen also saw it.
Lan Ling'er was still alright, she could not see anything, but Jian Chen's face, in such a short period of time, had actually become extremely dark and gloomy!
”Go over there!” Jian Chen said in a cold voice, and then, he spurred his electricity claws to fly Huang, turning into a yellow lightning storm, instantly sweeping towards the direction of White City. Long Chen and Yue Yang looked at each other in dismay.
”Follow me!” Although he didn't know what Jian Chen was doing, he wasn't an impulsive person, so Long Chen trusted him a lot.
When they were close enough, Long Chen could finally see what was happening. At this moment, the people on the city gate tower were all looking at one place, which was the city wall near the city gate. Long Chen looked carefully, and saw that thirty thick ropes were hanging down from the city gate tower, and at the bottom of each of the ropes, hung a corpse, who knows if this person was directly strangled to death, or if he was killed by someone else.
There were a total of thirty or so corpses lying side by side, and they looked somewhat horrifying.
Long Chen and Lan Ling'er looked at each other, and they could see the worry in each other's eyes. These people, could very well be members of the Jian Chen Family! Otherwise, Jian Chen would not have such a reaction!
A thick smell of blood was emitted from Jian Chen!
On top of the city gate tower, Long Chen saw a figure — — Flowery King!
This person must have known about Jian Chen's background. After she escaped from the Lianyunshan Mountains, it was very likely that she had come here and killed all of Jian Chen's family members. She knew, Jian Chen and the others would definitely come!
Seeing the cold smile on the corner of Flowery King's mouth, Long Chen was almost completely convinced of his thoughts. Although Jian Chen's family didn't have a deep relationship with him, they might have already been killed.
In other words, it was possible that the Martial Alliance had already set up a trap here, and was waiting for Jian Chen to fall into his trap.
This was also the reason why Jian Chen's family was able to survive until now!
They were alive as bait.
Looking at the corpses lying side by side, and Flowery King's sneering face, Long Chen knew that if he was Jian Chen right now, he would definitely go crazy! Fortunately, he was not. Thus, he was still rational.
”Little Wolf, catch up to my third brother.” Long Chen's face was gloomy as he immediately told the wolf cub.
With the speed of the little wolf, Long Chen quickly rushed in front of Jian Chen. But at this time, Jian Chen had already stopped, dismounted, took out his Cloudmist Sword, and walked step by step towards White City.
