Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 1559 - 357: Chang Xuzi: Chen 94, Blood for Blood! (Part 4)

Upon hearing those words, Chen Jie couldn't help but concede that Elder Qin was indeed a fervent lover of combat.

Chen Jie responded: “Very well.”

In that instant, he swiftly extracted the pair of swords from their corpses. Even after the devastating blast from earlier, the blades stood untouched—these were truly legendary weapons.

Being such esteemed swords, Chen Jie desired to claim them. After all, artifacts of this caliber possessed immense worth as collectibles.

As the swords were removed, Elder Qin and Elder Qi lay irrevocably deceased, yet they held their combative poses. Elder Qi rested against Elder Qin’s back, forming an oddly captivating tableau.

Chen Jie returned the swords to their sheaths and gave a subtle nod of honor toward the pair.

He pivoted to depart, directing his sight toward the path where the plain-looking girl had vanished.

Just then, Sun Cong and Xu Caijin showed up alongside a few followers. Having observed Chen Jie’s formidable fighting abilities moments before, they weren’t naive; they recognized Chen Jiusi’s power and aimed to forge ties.

Xu Caijin, in particular, felt profound regret. After all, Chen Jiusi wasn’t merely a wanderer of the Jianghu; he was a powerhouse at the Molten Furnace Realm.

Furthermore, as the ruler over all of Huangzhou Prefecture, a mere utterance from Chen Jie could decide the fate of her desired cotton trade.

Plus, with Chen Jie’s extraordinary martial skills, his position soared far above her reach.

While Xu Caijin mulled over these matters, Sun Cong advanced and declared: “Grandpa Chen, you’re incredible! Defeating the two Kunlun elders in a single clash—from this day forward, your legend will resound across the Jianghu, immortalized forever.”

Chen Jie glanced at Sun Cong upon hearing this and remarked: “Spare me the praise, quickly gather your belongings, and guide the caravan onward. The Kunlun Sect members will arrive shortly.”

Sun Cong stared at Chen Jie and inquired: “More are on their way?”

Chen Jie answered: “Do you truly believe the Kunlun Sect will overlook the loss of two elders?”

Next, Chen Jie addressed Xu Caijin: “Miss Xu, I grasp your motives, but I advise caution: your Xu family’s ventures in Tianshui lie within King Qi and Kunlun Sect’s domain. I’ve now become their foe. You ought to weigh if continuing our association is wise.”

Though Xu Caijin had planned to ally with Chen Jie, his warning froze her in place, too daunted to proceed.

Chen Jie stated: “Fine, I’m off now. When the Kunlun Sect gets here, simply relay the facts.”

Having spoken, Chen Jie spun around and strode off, heading straight after the plain-looking girl. Liu Futong’s granddaughter was far too valuable to release, particularly after he’d slain two Kunlun elders on her account. The grudge was now firmly entrenched.

Should she slip away uncaptured, and all he gained from Zoroastrian Sect’s Liu Futong was complications, it would spell disaster for Chen Jie. He was determined not to allow Liu Futong’s granddaughter to evade him.

Harboring such resolve, Chen Jie pursued the route the plain-looking girl had taken.

Right then, the plain-looking girl glanced backward and spotted Chen Jiusi charging wildly after her, which terrified her into bolting away.

She was familiar with Chen Jiusi—despite his bond with Grandpa Peng, Aunt Han Miaozhen had described him as cunning, merciless, and perilous. Her sect’s Elder Quan had perished at his hands. She’d been cautioned to flee upon sighting him in the Jianghu, avoiding capture at all costs.

Therefore, aware of Chen Jiusi’s nature, she fled immediately without a second thought.

To her, neither the Kunlun elders nor Chen Jiusi were trustworthy; both demanded evasion. Her face drained of color in fear, she plunged further into the woods, intent on eluding Chen Jiusi’s grasp.

Chen Jie, having caught sight of her, pursued relentlessly, refusing to let her get away.

As Chen Jiusi hounded the plain-looking girl for an unknown duration, abruptly, another band of individuals appeared from a different path.

At their forefront stood the Kunlun Sect Leader, Chang Xuzi!
