BXBX NOVEL Chapter 246
Jiang Luoxia had added another Heaven\'s Gate member to the murder count. First, it was Buzhi Ming and now the black-robed monk.
"Jiang Luoxia…"
The nine-python robed man\'s eyes narrowed into slits as he spoke in a cold tone, "Since you are unable to figure out what\'s good for you, don\'t blame me for acting ruthlessly. The proposal of admitting Jiang Luoxia into Heaven\'s Gate is canceled!"
"Immediately issue the Heaven\'s Gate Demigod Hunting Order!"
Long Zaizong said, "This Jiang Luoxia possess mysterious methods. It\'s better for us to bide our time to formulate a plan to kill him in a single attack. Otherwise, trouble will befall us if he were to escape."
A man beside him commented, "Long Zaizong, are you actually scared?"
"When has our supreme Heaven\'s Gate feared anyone?"
The nine-python robed man said, "It\'s not wrong to act cautiously. Jiang Luoxia\'s history is a mystery, and his ranking as as the No. 3 on the Demigod Ranking isn\'t just for show. I believe we should discuss this properly."
…
The dark and dense clouds above the party venue finally dispersed and moonlight scattered onto the area. Long Yingqing who was curled up on the ground felt seriously sick. Like the saying went - sickness comes like a landslide but goes slowly like spinning silk. She was drenched in sweat all over and supported up by a person, "W-What did you do to me?"
"Nothing much. I just killed the Demigod who planted the soul fragment inside your body, that\'s all."
Madame RV\'s expression warped, "Gandalf\'s dead?"
"Impossible!"
"Madame RV doesn\'t believe it?" Jiang Xiu asked her.
Madame RV knew Jiang Xiu was a Demigod who possessed extraordinary strength as well as mysterious methods but killing someone who was several hundred km away was something she couldn\'t comprehend through her superficial knowledge.
The reason she had a close relationship with the Long family and the Lee family was due to that black-robed monk. He was someone whom she had visited once with her paternal great-grandfather to give a gift, a person of great wisdom and knowledge.
A person came beside her from behind and whispered something in her ears. Madame RV\'s facial expression distorted immediately, making her look at Jiang Xiu with eyes wide open. "You… No… Respected Mr. Demigod, you really killed Gandalf!"
"There was nowhere else to release my rage!"
Madame RV\'s expression turned ashen.
Everyone from the Long family was utterly shocked, looking at each other in dismay. All of this felt like a fairy tale story to them as killing a Demigod who was at a far away place was just unheard of.
Madame RV squeezed out a smile with great difficulty, "Respected Mister, I believe Ms. Xiao Xuetong is more suitable for the role of RV\'s China Ambassador."
Jiang Xiu\'s gaze swept across her face, "You never had any say in making this decision, so there\'s no need for you say empty words."
Madame RV shut her mouth in embarrassment.
"It seems like you\'re acquainted with the people of Heaven\'s Gate?" Jiang Xiu asked.
"My father was a member of Heaven\'s Gate, but he passed away quite early. I only have a superficial understanding of Heaven\'s Gate. In comparison, the Lee family and the Long family are branches of Heaven\'s Gate. Ms. Long has even gone to their headquarters once."
"Have you gone there?"
Long Yingqing nodded with a pale face, "Mhm!"
"Then you must remember the way…" Jiang Xiu believed he\'d have to spend some effort to look for the HQ of Heaven\'s Gate but didn\'t expect he wouldn\'t have to do anything at all.
Long Yingqing nodded, "It\'s the Holy Land!"
"Lead the way then!"
The news of Jiang Luoxia arriving in Europe took over China\'s martial arts world like a storm and the fact that he had killed Lee Jae-Ki had made Korea\'s murim world go crazy.
Many Koreans insulted in succession. Fucker, wait for our Lee family\'s Demigod\'s revenge.
China\'s special division located within Europe was extremely tense. On that night, they received feedback from the country to pay close attention to Jiang Luoxia\'s movements and do their best to support him.
"It seems like our worry was unnecessary!" That newspaper reading man commented.
The woman was a little sour as well but now had a relaxed expression, "As Mr. Jiang has killed the Lee family\'s prince, he has thoroughly made enemies out of the Lee family and the Long family. There\'s a fat chance he\'ll be able to join Heaven\'s Gate."
"Then…"
The man\'s expression turned solemn, "They can only be enemies." His good mood completely died off. Heaven\'s Gate was an existence which even superpowers like the U.S and China were afraid of.
"Damn it. An Long, we just received news that Mr. Jiang has set off towards Gaulle\'s western region."
The man, as well as the blonde young woman, were stunned, immediately after which their expressions distorted.
"Damn it!"
"The Holy Land!"
An Long\'s expression turned grim. "It looks like Mr. Jiang plans to go to the Holy Land. That\'s the base of Heaven\'s Gate."
"T-That\'s too crazy. He isn\'t going there to kill them, right?!" That fat European man\'s blue pupils expanded while his lips shuddered as he spoke.
An Long said, "If you consider Jiang Luoxia\'s style, it\'s possible he might be indeed planning to do that…"
"Oh my God! But that\'s Heaven\'s Gate\'s base!"
"Ever since WWI, even gunships have detoured over that place, but he plans to go there single-handedly?" The blonde young woman grabbed her hair.
An Long said, "I\'ll have to contact the country regarding this."
A Demigod partial to China was really too valuable. Yes, China had many Demigods, but they were concealed or placed their own safety before everything else, and there was only one person with unfathomable strength, which was Jiang Xiu. For China, he was the strongest national defense power as well as a sharp weapon in their hands.
It\'d be a real pity if he were to die. Moreover, Jiang Xiu was still quite young, only 20 years old. If he could live for a hundred years, he\'d be able to protect China\'s glory for those hundred years.
The information sent back from the country was to use all power in their hands to ensure Mr. Jiang\'s safety.
As Jiang Luoxia has gone to meet the big boss in Diaoyutai and used his identity as a Demigod to discuss with the boss, it was natural that the country would spare no strength in helping him.
"An Long, what do you plan to do?"
An Long began to pack his luggage, "I\'m going to the western region. There\'s no need for you to come. It\'s too dangerous."
"No no no…"
"You are our leader. How can we abandon you?"
An Long smiled, "It\'s too dangerous time this time. I\'ll have room to maneuver if I\'m alone, but if you\'re with me, it\'ll make me worried. You guys should stay behind to provide support at any time."
The door was pushed open and a handsome youth entered inside. It was the youth who had taken the photos. "I just received information that after Mr. Jiang killed Lee Jae-Ki, a large number of Korean murim artists entered Gaulle. They should\'ve come for Mr. Jiang."
"Hmm, boss, you\'re going out?"
An Long said, "I\'m going to the western region." His expression was quite solemn as the circumstances didn\'t look optimistic. Lee Jae-Ki was the Lee family\'s heir, and the Lee family wouldn\'t leave the matter of his death alone.
Actually, it wasn\'t just Korea, the martial arts of China had also entered Gaulle. They had sniffed the smell of gunpowder, and even many from Japan had rushed over.
Chaos loomed over Gaulle right now.
And amidst this chaotic gathering, Jiang Xiu was sitting in a car driven by Long Yingqing. She felt a lot better now and didn\'t sweat continuously like before. Moreover, though her body felt empty, she instead felt relaxed. Previously, she used to always feel a repressive sensation, but it wasn\'t there anymore.
"You mean the other party was using my life to extend his life?"
"If you make it sound simple, that\'s indeed the case and also his goal. The reason you became irritated or felt dizzy often is because of the incompatibility between your soul and body, and also because your life was being drained too quickly."
"But I never aged faster."
"This has no relation to age. Age is merely an issue of time. The strength of vitality is a completely different concept." Jiang Xiu hadn\'t mentioned one matter. In case a situation where Long Yingqing experienced a loss in vitality were to occur, she might\'ve experienced sudden death. The probability of this happening also increased along with age.
Children had the most vigorous vitality, and as they grew up, this would slow down. Around 28 years of age, a human\'s vitality began to wither, and when that happened, Long Yingqing would definitely die. In other words, even if she had good luck and didn\'t experience sudden death, she would only live to the age of 28.
There was no free lunch in this world. A price needed to be paid when the monk saved her life back then.
"Your constitution is a bit special!"
As Jiang Xiu was tampering with Long Yingqing\'s soul, he had discovered that her soul had experienced a variation. If she were on the Immortal Martial Continent, all the large sects would\'ve fought over her.
No matter what her cultivation talent may be, her accomplishments on this aspect definitely wouldn\'t be low.
