16 Return

Jiang Chen slowly walked through the massive front entrance of the castle. Inside of the caste was in ruins. Carpets were smoking and the stairs blew up filled with holes.

"Wow, blew this place into pieces!"

In the background, Wall Breakers was still trying to find pieces of intact wall to blow up.

"Young Master!"

The group of elders saw Jiang Chen and was happy to see him. Jiang Chen just walked up to them and broke the rope binding them. Jiang Chen suddenly frowned and asked.

"Where is Shu Ding?"

"Ah, you must mean the girl. The person sent her to his room after he binds us here."

"You guys can go back now."

Jiang Chen walked away and started to search the entire castle. He came across an ancient-looking door that was locked and he pushed his way through. Shu Ding was sitting on the floor right next to a table. She seemed to be in emotional distress.

"Shu Ding!"

She looked up and started to cry for her life. Jiang Chen got her up and they made their way back to the village. He quickly left without another word as soon as he saw that Shu Ding was back safely. Although he wanted to

Ding!

"....How I wish that I can kill you, System."

Jiang Chen got back to the Sky Divine Sect after a long day. Gu Ming and the rest were shocked to death after he opened the door.

"Brother Chen! Where have you been?"

"You know where I've been. I was just going out to collect the earth vine."

"The sect master saw looking for you 2 days ago. She seemed really mad that you weren't back."

"I was lost along the way back...."

Jiang Chen walked in and sat on the chair near the corner. Gu Ming just looked at Jiang Chen like he was a dead man.

"You may want to report back to the sect master."

"Yeah.....You're right.."

Jiang Chen nodded and walked out of the house. He quickly found where the sect master's office is and knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

Jiang Chen opened the door and walked in.

"I see you found your way back after the deadline!"

The sect master looked at Jiang Chen in an ice manner.

"I'm sorry for making you wait. I brought the earth vine with me."

Jiang Chen took the earth vine out of his inventory and presented it to the headmaster.

"By making me wait for 2 days past the deadline, you made me angry. I even enlisted to you to Heaven's Ascension in 3 days."

Jiang Chen was surprised to see that the icy headmaster enlisted him to the event.

"What is Heaven's Ascension exactly?"

"You don't even know that! Oh well, what can I expect from you? You can keep the earth vine. Heaven's Ascension is an event taking place where cultivators climb the tower built the ancestors before them. The cultivators who place the top places will get to the prizes that are exceedingly rare and prized."

"Ohhh.....!"

"Now, the event will take place in 3 days and you better get the first place or else!!"

The headmaster made an evil face and looked at Jiang Chen. She pointed her finger at him and made a slitting motion at her neck.

"Yes. I get it, headmaster."

"Now, get going."

Jiang Chen got out of the office and sighed.

"I swear that the woman scares me than any other woman that I met."

Jiang Chen got prepared for the event in the next 3 days.
