Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

When the fire dragon had been absorbed by Jiang Chen, the fierce suction from the abyss disappeared.

It wasn’t even as hot anymore. Gao Huoling hurried to charge down with her coat and catch Jiang Chen, who had lost consciousness.

She wrapped him in the coat and landed at the bottom of the abyss.

She was depressed at the thought of where they were, deep underground, and with a mountain overhead.

Fortunately, she was a Reaching Heaven State. She wouldn’t let them die there.

Then she started to focus on Jiang Chen. She wrapped his bleeding wounds and gave him some water to drink.

Jiang Chen’s body had almost been hurt beyond his limits in the short few minutes. The origin of fire dragon had flooded into every part of his body and almost filled him.

If it weren’t for the genuine blood of phoenix, he would have melted.

By then, his body had started to recover automatically. After all this, he had gained more essence blood of fire phoenix in his body.

The purity of the phoenix blood in his body has exceeded mine.

Gao Huoling let out a long sigh after realizing this fact. Then she felt glad for the sake of the Gaos and smiled.

Jiang Chen woke up from his coma very soon. His body was already fine. It was only his suffering spirit that hadn’t recovered.

He didn’t even dare put on any clothes. As long as his skin didn’t make contact with any fabric, he wouldn’t feel the burns, although everything looked normal.

Not until he had read Buddhist texts silently for half a day did he put on new clothes.

“By the way, why weren’t your clothes burned?” Jiang Chen asked curiously, trying to relax his tense nerves by speaking.

“They’re made of a fabric that the Gaos invented after hundreds of years of study. Tell grandpa to make you one, too, when you go back.”

Jiang Chen nodded. Looking at the darkness above, he said, “Let’s go up.”

Gao Huoling was clear about what this could mean. They had just escaped danger, then they would have to face a life-or-death fight. She fell into a trance for a moment.

“Don’t worry. The situation is better than we thought. I’ll be able to kill him if everything goes smoothly.”

“Really?” Gao Huoling wasn’t very convinced.

“I suppose.” Jiang Chen closed his fist tightly. His confidence came from the surging energy in his body.

After so many desperate fights, he knew himself better.

When he had come in here, he was a mess with several kinds of energies in him, and he knew nothing about the fight doctrine.

So the ranking is a more accurate way to judge.

All of these changes had been represented by his rank.

“Let’s go.”

Gao Huoling and Jiang Chen flew out of the abyss together.

At the same time, outside of the abyss, Lin Jingyu suddenly shouted, “They’re back. It’s Jiang Chen and Gao Huoling’s energies!”

The crowd who had thought they were dead turned pale. They didn’t know what could have happened down there.

Almost a day had passed. How could they have appeared again all of a sudden?

“Did they dig a hole and hide in there to trick the psychic bird?” someone guessed.

“If that’s the case, won’t they be scared out of their wits when they come out of there and see us?” someone else scorned.

Yin Shuang, Ying Wushuang, and the others felt worried. They didn’t know what would happen next.

“They’re coming up!” said Lin Jingyu.

He didn’t have to say it, since everyone had perceived the strong energy that was approaching them rapidly from under the mountain. The mountain started to give off a burning light.

They heard a glare when the light had achieved its peak. The mountain was bombed from the inside and a huge hole showed where two figures flew out, one after the other.

They were Jiang Chen and Gao Huoling, both holding their spiritual weapons in hand with cold looks.

The two had prepared for a desperate fight, but the sight of so many people in the air was beyond their expectations. They were clearly surprised.

“Jiang Chen.” Ying Wushuang hurried to fly into the air to inform them of what had happened.

“Shameless!”

Gao Huoling flew into a rage when she heard Lin Jingyu’s insult, staring at him.

“Guys, what are you waiting for?” Lin Jingyu simply ignored her. He looked at Jiang Chen with doubt. Somehow, he felt uneasy.

After he voiced his question, the teams surrounded Jiang Chen, full of killing intent.

“Jiang Chen, a life for a life!”

Those from the Wus were the angriest among everyone. They wished they could kill Jiang Chen right then and there.

“Your accusation against me has come from what he claimed and his so-called proof. Do you think that’s enough to declare me guilty?”

Jiang Chen glanced at the teams. The only person that had caught his attention was the large man in Yin Shuang’s team.

The others were none of his concern, but it didn’t mean he would allow Lin Jingyu to make him the bad guy.

“Jiang Chen, what else can you argue? The facts are very clear. Everyone saw it in the video!” Mo Jianfei felt nervous somehow. He had a hunch that something bad would happen whenever he saw Jiang Chen smile like that.

“Won’t you even give him a chance to prove his innocence?” Yin Shuang said angrily.

The teams hesitated. They decided to listen to Jiang Chen’s argument.

“Lin Jingyu, do you know that Green Ghost assured me no one would run away during almost ten days of enslaving of them?” asked Jiang Chen.

“How would I know? I didn’t gang up with the Evil Cloud Palace!” Lin Jingyu said in a cold voice.

“Because he deployed a tactical formation to record videos, and the videos he recorded are even more thorough and detailed than yours.”

Mo Jianfei was shocked, his face extremely pale.

Lin Jingyu wouldn’t believe him. He thought Jiang Chen was only bluffing, but Jiang Chen had opened Green Ghost’s storage bag and found many recording reels in it, each tagged with the recording time.

Jiang Chen played the first reel first, which recorded the very beginning of the events.

Those present saw Green Ghost putting Gao Huoling and others under the holy ghost chain. He had ordered each of them to harvest a certain amount of crystals of fire dragon. If they didn’t achieve the goal, they would be beaten.

“This doesn’t prove anything.” Seeing that Jiang Chen really did have those videos, Lin Jingyu turned pale.

“Yeah?”

Then Jiang Chen played the reel of the last day, when he had come to pick a fight with Green Ghost.

Since these videos had been recorded by a tactical formation, they had been recorded from every angle. Putting aside the process of him killing Green Ghost, they saw from every angle how Jiang Chen had rescued those who had been enslaved and Wu Yu’s and the others’ cruelty.

Jiang Chen had given back to them what Green Ghost had taken away from them, but they still hadn’t been satisfied. They had still wanted the crystals.

What followed was how Jiang Chen had taught them a lesson and driven them away.

By then, the crowd found there was something different in the videos from what Lin Jingyu had claimed.

Jiang Chen hadn’t enslaved the others. Instead, he had collaborated with them and treated them very nicely.

In this way, the motive to kill him that Lin Jingyu had shared didn’t exist at all.

“Jiang Chen, this is only a trick of yours! Stop telling tales here!” Lin Jingyu couldn’t sit still anymore. He was about to launch an attack, but he was stopped by a man larger than him.

The man said, “Why are you in such a hurry?”

A guy ranked in the top ten of the Dragon Rise List wasn’t someone Lin Jingyu had the nerve to offend.

Then the video showed how Jiang Chen had shot the star chasing arrow.

Like Mo Jianfei, the crowd also noticed Lin Jingyu adjusting the position of his golden shield intentionally so that the power of the star chasing arrow would kill the others!

This was the moment of truth!

Mo Jianfei turned pale, shaking.

Lin Jingyu gnashed his teeth. His eyes were full of fiery anger.
