21 Robbing The Entire City!

"Good, very good..." The middle-aged man sounded angry. He had unleashed his aura, and he was getting ready to pressure both Jiang Chen and Duo Tian.

"Xuan Ye." Right at this moment, a deep voice sounded out from the scene. Hearing someone calling his name, the middle-aged man had a change in expression, and he immediately turned toward the source. When he saw Wu Jiu, his mouth opened widely with shock, and in the next second, an extreme joyful expression emerged on his face.

Swoosh!

The middle-aged man moved and arrived in front of Wu Jiu in an instant. He didn't even care about Shangguan Wei and Jiang Chen anymore.

When Xuan Ye shouted out the first word, he saw Wu Jiu signaling him with his eyes, "Jiu… Lord Jiu!"

"Xuan Ye, I never thought I'd see you here." Wu Jiu said with a smile, he too felt happy when seeing the middle aged man. This was his most loyal servant, and it had been ten years since they last saw each other. Of course he would feel joyful when seeing a familiar man.

"Lord Jiu, it has been ten years! Finally, I've found you! Xuan Ye came to Inferno Hell seven years ago, and I've traveled all over the place, but I just couldn't find any traces of Lord Jiu!"

Xuan Ye bowed deeply toward Wu Jiu. His eyes turned red, and he was almost in tears. It had been seven years, and the main reason why he came to Inferno Hell was to find Wu Jiu. Just as he had almost given up, he had finally found Wu Jiu.

"Oh heavens, who is that old man? Even a Combat Soul warrior has to bow to him!"

"Where did he come from? I think he's with Jiang Chen… Now, no one can save Shangguan Wei anymore."

Everyone were shocked. They were all trying to guess who this Wu Jiu was, and why a Combat Soul warriors was bowing to him.

Guan Yiyun and Tian Yishan's mouths were wide open with shock, and their faces carried expressions of disbelief. It looked like Wu Jiu letting them address him as Lord Jiu was actually a great honor, as even a Combat Soul warrior had to address him as Lord Jiu, let alone other people.

Jiang Chen felt relaxed now. He had long ago guessed that Wu Jiu came from an extraordinary background, but now it seemed more incredible than what he had expected. It looks like his decision to save Wu Jiu was spot on. Without Wu Jiu, he wouldn't be able to find the Earth Devil's location, and he would have to fight this Combat Soul warrior.

Duo Tian only snorted, if Wu Jiu didn't knew this middle-aged man, he would certainly summon Yun Che into scene and burn that man into a crispy fried human.

The death of all these Late Divine Core warriors didn't mean the end of this battle. After Duo Tian and Jiang Chen killed Shangguan Wei, the duo turned they sight to the nearly 20 remaining Mid Divine Core warriors.

The expressions of these men changed dramatically; their faces paled in an instant, and some were even trembling because of fear. Just a look from the duo had caused to them to see the gates leading to hell.

Xuan Ye whispered to Wu Jiu, "Lord Jiu, they has killed a lot of men, and if we let them continue, more than half the warriors in Inferno City will have been killed by them." He had stayed in Inferno City for seven years, and although there were constant conflicts and fights, making it seem like human lives were worthless in this place; slaughtering so many people along like the duo did, it was the first time something like this had ever happened in Inferno City.

"So what? They deserve it." Wu Jiu stared blankly at Xuan Ye.

"Understood." Xuan Ye immediately bowed toward Wu Jiu, he dared not neglect Wu Jiu's words. In the entire Martial Saint Dynasty, there weren't really anyone who dared neglect Wu Jiu's words.

"Chief Jiang, Young Master Handsome Traveler, please spare my life, I'm willing to hand over all my belongings!"

"Me too! I was blind to offend chief Jiang and Young Master Handsome Traveler, I hope both of you can forgive me and let me go! I'll give you all my belongings!"

"Right, we will hand over everything we got, we won't even leave behind a single pill, it will all belong to both of you!"

There were few who truly didn't fear death. The more fiendish a man was, the more scared of death he was. When the shadow of death was cast above the head, whatever wealth a man possessed become worthless, and the most important thing was to keep living. There was always an opportunity to find more wealth, but a man only lived once, and once life ended, it was completely gone.

"Hand over all your belongings, then each of you cut off one arm."

Jiang Chen said with an indifferent tone.

"What?! Cut off my arm?" Someone exclaimed. But, his ending was similar to that of the previous man. Right as his words left his mouth, he was slashed in half by a single sword strike from Alphamon.

*Ding =System= 'Congratulations owner for killing a cultivator of Divine Core Realm, 5 System points added'

"I do not show mercy upon those who have tried to kill me. Asking for one arm is the lightest punishment I can bestow upon you. I'll count to three, those who are not willing to do it, die. Don't think I'm joking, none of you are qualified for my jokes." Jiang Chen gazed at all the men from left to right. His gaze was like razor sharp edge scratching their faces, causing the fear in their minds to increase.

"Damn it, I'll do it, it's just one arm; it is worth less than my life!" Many men made up their minds. With combat weapon in hand, they cut off one of their arms while gritting their teeth. No one thought Jiang Chen was joking, he was not someone who joked a lot. So many Late Divine Core warriors were killed by him, even Shangguan Wei was killed by him. If Jiang Chen wanted to kill them, it wouldn't take him too much effort.

Before Jiang Chen started counting, all the men sliced off their own arm. After that, they handed all their belongings over to Jiang Chen in a respectful manner, including the combat weapon in their hands.

For these Mid Divine Core warriors, losing an arm wasn't really a serious injury. If they could obtain good treatment in time, although they still wouldn't be able to get their arms back; losing an arm wouldn't really affect their cultivation.

Jiang Chen took all the storage rings and combat weapons, then he stored it all in his storage ring. At the same time, Big Yellow came up to Jiang Chen while bouncing around excitedly, then he handed all his harvest over to Jiang Chen.

"Kakaka, buddy, we're rich now! The wealth we obtained in the outer perimeter can't compare with what these men possessed! Buddy, you're an enormous treasure vault right now, in the future, when daddy wants to eat natural essences, you'll have to give me!" Big Yellow said as his tail wagged back and forth.

"No problem." Jiang Chen patted the dog's head. As long as he had it, he would give Big Yellow anything he wanted without hesitation.

After that, Jiang Chen and Big Yellow turned around and went to Duo Tian

"Brother Tian, you're such a mighty summoner. Thank you for having my back!"Jiang Chen stared and smiled at Duo Tian while tapping the latter shoulder, he absolutely knowledged Duo Tian prowess now. Guan Yiyun and Tian Yishan worshiped both Jiang Chen and Duo Tian. The gap between them and the duo was not small. As haughty men, if they could accomplish what those two had, that would be enough glory for a lifetime to them.

"Brother Jiang, thank you for saving Lord Jiu's life! Please accept my gratitude." Xuan Ye cupped his fist toward Jiang Chen and bowed deeply.

Looking at this, Jiang Chen immediately extended his hand and stopped Xuan Ye from bowing, "Brother Xuan, no need to be so polite. I felt like I was meeting an old friend when I first saw brother Jiu, of course I would save my old friend."

Jiang Chen was being polite while talking to Xuan Ye. Firstly, Xuan Ye was Wu Jiu's friend, and that also meant he was one of them. Secondly, Xuan Ye had stayed in Inferno City for seven years, he was surely familiar with everything here, and he might be able to provide great help with hunting for the treasure. He could perhaps even help later on when fighting the Earth Devil. Xuan Ye was after all a Combat Soul warrior.

Wu Jiu said as he patted Xuan Ye's shoulder, "Brother Jiang, let me introduce, Xuan Ye is my friend. All these years, he has willingly stayed in the harsh Inferno Hell, just because he was searching for me." He felt glad because of Xuan Ye's loyalty.

"It is really good for brother Jiu to have such a good friend." Jiang Chen praised. A man willing to stay in this harsh environment just because he wanted to searching for his friend, just the determination and purpose alone was enough to deserve respect from everyone.

Wu Jiu said, "Alright, brother Jiang, we should continue our business."

"Lord Jiu, what business do you have?" Xuan Ye asked.

Jiang Chen said hurriedly, "Let's go, we'll talk in the center of Inferno City."

"Fine, please follow me." Xuan Ye turned around and started flying toward Inferno City. Jiang Chen, Duo Tian and the rest of them followed closely behind. It had been seven years, and Xuan Ye could basically be considered the master of Inferno City. He would walk around in the city like it was his own backyard.

--Center of Inferno City--

In the center of Inferno City, there stood a tall black palace. Layers of fog hovered around the palace, giving it a sense of ancientness. Under Xuan Ye's lead, the few men entered the palace.

"This is the center of Inferno City, but within a hundred mile radius, no one except me can come here with ease unless I'm hosting a trading event. But, since all the warriors in Inferno City have been robbed by brother Jiang, I don't think it's necessary to host a trading event any more…" Xuan Ye said with a smile on his face. He had now finally found Wu Jiu; 7 years of relentless searching had finally come to a happy end. He couldn't help but feel happy and relaxed.

Wu Jiu asked, "Let's get back to topic. Xuan Ye, do you know about any treasures that exist in the center of Inferno City?"

"I'm sure there is a treasure here, and it's restraining those demons and devils. If not, Inferno City would long ago have been destroyed. However, I haven't found it in these seven years I've been here." Xuan Ye said as he furrowed his brows.

"The treasure is hidden within this palace, I can sense it now." Big Yellow said as his ears stood up.

Wu Jiu and Xuan Ye threw their eyes toward Big Yellow at the same time. Both of them were surprised. Although this dog seemed pretty amazing, he was only an Early Divine Core demon beast. A treasure that even they, Combat Soul warriors couldn't sense… how could Big Yellow sense it?
