Wife, you didn't really drug me, did you?
Chapter 701 Zhang Shicheng: This time, destiny is in my hands
So the two of them went back and forth, advancing and retreating, for who knows how long. Zhang Shicheng really couldn't hold on any longer. If Chen Jiu Si didn't stop, he really wouldn't be able to take it anymore.
But whether it was God helping him or not, just when he was about to give up, Chen Jiu Si suddenly stopped.
This greatly excited Zhang Shicheng. At the same time, he thought to himself that his journey to Kunlun had been very smooth. Although he had been slashed and faced many dangers, he had managed to turn the situation around in the end.
It has to be said that this time it seems like fate is on his side, constantly bringing him good luck.
In short, Zhang Shicheng made a fortune this time.
With the Tiger Soul Blade and having mastered the Nine Li Demon Art, Zhang Shicheng felt a surge of excitement, knowing that he could grow into a figure that even Chen Jiu Si and Zhu Chong Ba would look up to, given the opportunity.
"Okay, stop being so smug."
Just when Zhang Shicheng felt that even God was on his side, a voice suddenly rang in his mind: "Quickly think of what we should do. Should we go up or go down now? We can't just hang here forever, can we?"
The golden toad's voice rang out. Upon hearing this voice, Zhang Shicheng also reacted. He looked at the top of the cliff and said, "Chen Jiu Si won't give up so easily. He will probably send people to guard outside. In our current state, we don't need many people. Just one Furnace Realm cultivator will be enough to keep us pinned down and unable to move."
"So going up is a dead end; if you want to survive, there's only one way: go down!"
Zhang Shicheng directly stated his thoughts: "Go down, going down might still offer a glimmer of hope!"
So it was time to gamble with our lives again. Zhang Shicheng looked down and said, "Let's climb down. There's no hope up there, but the bottom is unknown. Maybe there's still a glimmer of hope!"
The golden toad said, "This cliff is too deep, and we don't even know where it leads. What if it has no bottom, or leads to a dead end?"
"Then die!"
Zhang Shicheng said resolutely, "If we cannot live, then we must die!"
Upon hearing this, Jin Chan looked at Zhang Shicheng's madness and said, "You really are a gambler, a gambler!"
Zhang Shicheng laughed heartily and said, "Haha, that's right, I am a gambler. How can you win these days if you don't gamble!"
"But you're gambling with your life!"
Jin Chan spoke again, and Zhang Shicheng laughed, "Haha, isn't life meant to be gambled with? If you win, everyone's happy; if you lose, it's just death, hahaha..."
Zhang Shicheng laughed heartily, his eyes filled with madness.
Zhang Shicheng was a gambler. He was just a salt merchant in Jiangnan. He saw the opportunity for chaos in the world, so he rose up in rebellion, gathered a group of people, and gambled on the chaos. In the end, he won, which is why he has the foundation he has today.
He went from a salt merchant to the dominant figure in Jiangnan, all because he took a gamble and won. The winner takes all, and that's the main theme of this era.
Bet!
Zhang Shicheng gritted his teeth and decided to take the gamble. Life and death are predestined, and wealth and honor are determined by fate. If fate is on my side, it will surely give me a way to live!
Upon hearing this, the golden toad exclaimed, "Crazy! You're truly crazy!"
Zhang Shicheng laughed heartily and said, "Golden Toad, you should be excited! This time our bet is huge. If we win, we'll have the world!"
The golden toad said, "If you want to win the world, you also need to have the life to gamble with. If you lose your life, then you are a complete loser!"
Zhang Shicheng laughed heartily, "Failure? Even in failure, it must be a spectacular defeat! Hahaha..."
The golden toad angrily retorted, "I really don't know if betting on you was the right or wrong thing to do. If I really lose, I estimate I'll lose terribly."
Zhang Shicheng remained silent upon hearing this, but simply smiled and said, "Then let's make the bet."
Then he began to slowly climb down. Whether he lived or died was up to fate!
He's betting on this round!
Leaving aside Zhang Shicheng's gamble with his life, Chen Jie finally climbed to the top of the cliff after half an hour of climbing. He looked down and felt somewhat unwilling, but the important matter still came first.
At this moment, Chen Jie looked at Li Siqi's corpse, thought for a moment, and then dragged Li Siqi's corpse out.
Chen Jie originally wanted to bury Li Siqi on the spot, but then he thought that his body would still be of great use, at least to make some people with ulterior motives realize the reality.
Having figured this out, Chen Jie slowly walked out of the gate of the place of inheritance.
At this moment, Li Siqi's guards were still standing outside the door. Chen Jie simply threw Li Siqi's body out.
This immediately alerted the guards, who shouted, "Who goes there!"
Soldiers immediately went to investigate.
"Ah, yes, it's King Qi! He... he's dead!"
The soldier who was inspecting the area exclaimed in surprise, which immediately alerted everyone present. The group exclaimed, "This, how is this possible!"
At that moment, a voice came: "King Qi has been executed. Do you still dare to resist?"
As the sound rang out, Chen Jiu Si slowly walked out, his steps very light. At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to the person who came out. He was covered in blood, as if he had been pulled out of a pool of blood, or like a demon from hell, which made people shudder.
Everyone stared in horror at the hellish demon emerging from the pool of blood. Someone shouted, "Who are you?"
"Chen Jiu Si!"
Chen Jie slowly uttered three words. Upon hearing these words, the surrounding soldiers trembled, clearly startled. Chen Jie looked at the many guards and said, "You must know my name. In that case, this matter is simple. Go and inform your Eastern King that I will personally visit him later!"
After saying this, Chen Jie turned and left, heading straight for the Heavenly Prison, where the Western King was still imprisoned. Chen Jie planned to rescue the Western King first, and then go to the inauguration ceremony. With the Western King present, many things would be more righteous.
After all, it's best not to let an outsider like myself handle matters concerning Kunlun Wonderland. Otherwise, if I get involved with too many lives of people from the Wonderland, things won't go smoothly in the future.
Therefore, Chen Jie headed straight for the Heavenly Prison.
On the way, Chen Jie encountered Li Fang and others. He borrowed more than a dozen capable experts from Li Fang to guard the entrance of the inheritance site, preventing anyone from approaching or entering. For some reason, he always felt that Zhang Shicheng would not die so easily.
Thinking this, Chen Jie led Li Fang to the prison. Li Fang asked anxiously, "Brother Chen, aren't we going to rescue Heng Qing now?"
Chen Jie looked at Li Fang and said, "Don't worry, there's no rush. Let's rescue the Western King first, then we can talk about other things."
Li Fang said, "They wouldn't have killed Heng Qing beforehand, would they?"
Chen Jie said, "With the Grand Elder here, he can definitely help us stall until the last minute." Li Fang pondered for a moment after hearing this and said, "That's true, but I'm still worried about Heng Qing."
Upon hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Li Fang and said, "You're just worried and confused. Alright, stop thinking about all this nonsense. You should be thinking about how, after you save Heng Qing, as a little hero, you should marry her. How about it, are you excited?"
Upon hearing this, Li Fang blushed and said, "This is an arranged marriage, and I will obey my elders' orders."
Chen Jie laughed upon hearing this, "Alright, alright, you're obeying your elders again now, haha..."
Chen Jie laughed heartily, while Li Fang blushed deeply. Seeing his expression, Chen Jie couldn't help but say, "Li Fang, you call me Brother Chen, so let me teach you a piece of advice. If you can understand it, it will be of immense help to your relationships with men and women."
"What?"
Li Fang looked at Chen Jie and asked, and Chen Jie chuckled and said, "A man shouldn't make himself worthless!"
"What do you mean? You're valuable? Do you expect me to sell myself?"
Li Fang didn't quite understand Chen Jie's words, and Chen Jie stopped there, not dwelling on the matter any longer. In this way, Chen Jie and Li Fang quickly arrived at the prison.
The Heavenly Prison was reinforced by the Eastern King to prevent any unforeseen events from resulting in the release of the Western King. The Eastern King sent his most trusted subordinate, General Changwei Jiang Baili. Jiang Baili was quite strong; if they had met in the past, Chen Jiu Si would not have had a way to win quickly, because Jiang Baili was also a powerful expert at the third level of the Fusion God Realm.
He is hailed as the most powerful successor to Dongwang.
At this moment, Chen Jie and Li Fang arrived at the prison. Their whereabouts were immediately discovered by Jiang Baili. Jiang Baili frowned and became wary. After all, anyone would be wary of seeing Chen Jie covered in blood.
Jiang Baili was like this when his subordinates reported, "Reporting to the general, something bad has happened! Someone has stormed the prison."
Jiang Baili then spoke up, "I'm not blind anymore. Do you know who these two are?"
The subordinate said, "I do know that young man; he is Li Fang, the young patriarch of the Jiuli tribe. As for the man covered in blood, I have no idea."
Jiang Baili then looked at it and said, "Give me my gun."
As he spoke, Jiang Baili ordered someone to bring him his gun. Soon, his subordinate handed him the large gun, which was nearly three meters long, entirely crimson, and named Crimson Dragon!
This is a treasure left over from the era of the Human Emperor. According to legend, it was the weapon of Boyi, a general under the Yellow Emperor.
Boyi was a fierce general under the Yellow Emperor, skilled in using a long spear. Later, in the great battle against Chiyou, he was unparalleled in bravery and killed three of Chiyou's eighty-one brothers. However, he encountered Chiyou and was seriously injured by him with a single blow, and his long spear was also cut off.
Later, in the Battle of Zhuolu, the Yellow Emperor won a great victory. Boyi was the first to charge and made meritorious contributions. He was rewarded with the position of general. The Yellow Emperor also ordered his skilled craftsmen to melt down the weapons of three of Chiyou's eighty-one brothers and combine them with Boyi's broken spear to recast the weapon. Because it was entirely red, it was called the Red Dragon.
This spear has been passed down within the Eastern Royal Family and is a token for the succession of the next Eastern King.
Jiang Baili was valued by the Eastern King because of his bravery. The Eastern King bestowed upon him a red dragon to commend his achievements and indicated that he would be the next Eastern King.
Jiang Baili reached out and took his spear, his gaze resolute, and said, "Today, no one can disrupt the Eastern King's great cause."
Having said that, he took his spear and went outside, standing at the entrance of the prison and shouting, "Who goes there? Stop right now!"
Jiang Baili roared and plunged his spear into the ground, displaying an imposing presence that seemed to hold off ten thousand men.
Meanwhile, inside the prison, the Western King opened his eyes and looked towards the door. Had that outsider really succeeded?
Thinking this, the guard at the door said, "Don't look around. After the new immortal lord is appointed today, the Eastern King will take you out of Kunlun tomorrow. The Eastern King said that as long as you help the immortal realm conquer a large area of land, he will forgive your sins and not hold you accountable."
The Western King frowned and said, "Hmph, he is a traitorous minister, yet he dares to say that he will not pursue my crimes. I will pursue his crimes."
Upon hearing this, the guard said, "Why are you so stubborn?"
The Western King looked at him and said, "I am stubborn and unyielding. Let me give you a piece of advice: it is not too late to abandon darkness and embrace the light now."
"Abandon darkness for light? You think you're the light? Don't be ridiculous."
The guard spoke, but the Western King ignored him and looked outside. The guard said, "Stop dreaming that someone will save you. It's impossible. Do you know that the person guarding outside today is General Changwei, Jiang Baili?"
"No one will be able to break into this prison to save you today. Just accept your fate!"
"Jiang Baili!"
The Western King took a deep breath and said, "What a pity for such a good general."
After saying this, the Western King fell silent. At this moment, Chen Jie and Li Fang saw Jiang Baili outside. Li Fang looked at Jiang Baili and said, "Jiang, if you know what's good for you, get out of here, or today will be your death anniversary."
Jiang Baili glanced at Li Fang with disdain and said, "You brainless idiot, you think you can talk to me with your lower body controlling your upper body? Get out of my way."
Li Fang roared in fury: "You bastard, who are you talking about? I'll kill you!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Baili glanced at him and said, "With your abilities, I won't hold back with my spear. Be careful not to wipe out your Jiuli tribe!"
Li Fang was furious, but at that moment, Chen Jie suddenly stepped forward and stopped Li Fang, then looked calmly at Jiang Baili and said, "Jiang Baili, is that right!"
Jiang Baili looked at Chen Jie and asked, "Who are you?"
Chen Jie said, "Chen Jiu Si!"
"Oh, so you're that wanted criminal!"
Chen Jie looked at him and said, "You can't beat me. I'll give you a chance. Leave now and I'll spare your life."
"Hehe, spare my life, I'll spare my life for you. Chen Jiu Si, I know you're quite capable. Today, let me test your strength."
Jiang Baili roared angrily.
Chen Jie said, "You can't beat me, why throw your life away for nothing!"
"Enough talk, take this!"
Jiang Baili drew his spear and charged straight at Chen Jie. Chen Jie dodged the spear with a light movement, then looked at Jiang Baili and said, "Good spear!"
Jiang Baili said, "Then you can taste how sharp my spear is!"
With a shout, the spear thrust directly at Chen Jie, carrying a whistling force and endless sound of tearing through the air. Chen Jie dodged two steps and then looked at Jiang Baili's spear technique, saying, "Your spear technique is not bad, but I also know a set of spear techniques. Please give me some pointers."
As he spoke, Chen Jie directly pulled out two spears from his storage ring, twisted them, and immediately thrust one at Jiang Baili! (End of Chapter)
