NOVEL NEXT Chapter 374
After listening to the audio clip sent by Lin Tianlong, a playful smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Che's mouth.
Having accepted the storyline, he naturally knew who this Old Master Sun that Ji Chen mentioned was.
This Old Master Sun would be a major boost for Ji Chen in the later stages, helping him soar from his position as the God of War in the Northern Territory.
However, Ji Chen was clearly overestimating his chances. Did he really think he could come here and leave unscathed?
Today, Jiang Che intended to ensure that Ji Chen would have no return! Without dwelling on it further, Jiang Che turned his gaze back to Ji Qingwan and asked with a faint smile.
"So, do you still remember the main incantations and mental techniques of the Star Devourer Technique?"
Ji Qingwan nodded lightly, indicating that she remembered.
"Good, tonight I'll help you increase your cultivation. Let's aim to directly break through to the peak of the Transformation stage or even the Unity of Man and Heaven realm!" Jiang Che said with great confidence. Once those small fries arrived, he would naturally have a way to deal with them.
Moreover, the Star Devourer Technique had no limit on how much internal energy could be absorbed at once; it mainly depended on Ji Qingwan's physical endurance.
As they were talking, Ji Menglan walked over from the side. Seeing Ji Qingwan, she was visibly stunned and looked a bit astonished.
"Junior Sister? What are you doing here?" Ji Menglan was a bit confused by Ji Qingwan's sudden appearance.
Ji Qingwan glanced at her, equally surprised, seemingly not expecting to see her here. Her eyes shifted back and forth between Jiang Che and Ji Menglan, clearly sensing something unusual.
"Ahem…" Jiang Che cleared his throat, looking away as if he had nothing to do with the situation.
"Why are you here? Did you come to see me or Jiang Che?" Ji Menglan asked curiously, not recalling ever telling Ji Qingwan that she was staying with Jiang Che.
So, Ji Qingwan's purpose for coming here was obvious; she had come for Jiang Che.
"I brought her here. There are some matters tonight that require her attention." Jiang Che explained from the side, without going into much detail.
Ji Menglan glanced at Jiang Che and sensibly chose not to ask further questions. Having spent a considerable amount of time with Jiang Che, she knew he didn't like women who questioned everything.
She pulled Ji Qingwan over to the sofa to chat privately. Jiang Che, on the other hand, turned and went upstairs to his study.
…
At nine in the evening.
Ji Chen, dressed in black nightwear, led a large group of people to the entrance of Wolong Villa.
After taking out the guards at the gate, they strode in boldly, not bothering to hide their actions, showing no fear of being discovered by Jiang Che.
After dealing with all the guards along the way, they soon arrived at the central villa of the estate.
By the faint remaining moonlight, Ji Chen saw a person sitting at the villa entrance, seemingly waiting for a long time.
Although he couldn't see the person's face clearly, he became instinctively wary. The mere presence of this person made him feel an overwhelming sense of suffocation, indicating a formidable expert!
If this person wasn't Jiang Che, they were definitely a powerful martial artist sent by the Jiang family to protect Jiang Che.
"What, you think you can leave after coming all this way?" A cold, mocking voice suddenly rang out from the darkness.
As the motion-sensor light at the villa entrance lit up, Ji Chen saw clearly that the person sitting there was indeed Jiang Che!
"So, you were informed of my arrival…" Ji Chen narrowed his eyes, his gaze full of killing intent as he looked at Jiang Che.
His fists clenched unconsciously, his chest heaving, as if struggling to contain immense rage.
Every time he sees Jiang Che, Ji Chen couldn't help but recall the humiliations this bastard had inflicted upon him! His expression was one of deep restraint, looking quite terrifying!
"What, surprised?" Jiang Che sneered at Ji Chen, standing up from his chair.
As Jiang Che stood, Ji Chen felt an overwhelming, terrifying pressure bearing down on him. His legs trembled uncontrollably, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept forming on his forehead.
Gritting his teeth, he struggled with all his might against the pressure. The others who had come with him were turning red in the face, looking like they might collapse at any moment.
"If this is all you've got, don't bother leaving tonight." Jiang Che said dismissively, feeling somewhat disappointed.
He had expected Ji Chen to bring some surprises. But this was it? They hadn't even started fighting, and this group was already on the verge of collapse.
It was a one-sided crushing, utterly boring.
