Chapter 85: The Vermilion Bird City

The disturbance of the day finally ended as the disciples and the elders left . Calm was restored to the Redcloud Peak .

However, the whole Natural Law School was shocked by the affair .

Jiang Chen became famous because of this fight . Although many people had heard of him before, it was due to the trouble between Ning Haotian and him . He was pitied by those people .

They were even betting secretly how long he could stay in the school .

But Jiang Chen's fight with Li Qin and Elder An had proved his toughness to the whole world .

The name of his peak became known throughout the whole school quickly .

The Redcloud Peak had well earned its reputation thanks to the grand formation that was able to defend against attacks from the Mental Wander State and the Reaching Heaven State .

Some people had changed their opinions about Jiang Chen, regarding him as a black horse . They believed he would go very far in the school . The war between Ning Haotian and him would be one in which diamond cut diamond .

Such opinions were met with disdain . Jiang Chen might not be as weak and small as people had thought, but he was still too far away from Ning Haotian .

Most importantly, could he live long enough to fully develop himself?

After the fight, Li Qin had been wandering around the Redcloud Peak with a strong killing intent . Everyone knew what she was aiming for .

In the beginning, those of the Redcloud Peak were given a good scare .

But they soon discovered Li Qin wasn't a threat to them, since she only had one target—Jiang Chen .

It wasn't because Li Qin was extremely clear about who she loved and hated . Rather, it was because she didn't want to be punished for killing an insignificant person .

Although she was a key disciple, if she killed people randomly, she would be punished .

And she didn't want Jiang Chen to run away while she was being punished . She was resolute to kill Jiang Chen at the cost of her first punishment .

Many people would feel scared if they were Jiang Chen . Having a Mental Wander State with such a strong killing intent wandering about the house, they wouldn't even be able to have a good sleep .

But Jiang Chen wasn't frightened at all . Instead, he felt relaxed, because he was sure Li Qin couldn't get in . If she dared intrude by force, he would kill her immediately .

"Jiang Chen, you can't hide at the Redcloud Peak forever . "

Wen Xin and Meng Hao were more anxious than him . They were worried about him .

Jiang Chen let out a sigh and said, "She's so determined to kill me because she knows I don't have any background . Even if I die, she won't be severely punished . But if I kill her, her master, Elder An, will definitely revenge her . Even if I don't get expelled, I'll suffer in another manner . "

He wasn't worried about his situation . Instead, he felt angry about the injustice .

"Isn't Elder Mo Xu on your side? He's a grand supreme elder!" Meng Hao said .

Jiang Chen smiled bitterly . That grand supreme elder was a weirdo . He wouldn't stand on anybody's side .

He showed up that day because he had found the grand formation at the Redcloud Peak was very powerful . He came simply out of curiosity . He had defended Jiang Chen because he couldn't put up with Li Qin and Elder An's misdeeds .

Elder Mo Xu and he were indeed acquainted with each other, but he was too far away to be called for support .

Jiang Chen recalled what the Medicine Elder had told him and made a decision .

I'll achieve the Mental Wander State and frustrate Li Qin so that I can get her number ten position on the talent list .

By then, the Medicine Elder would support him and he would gain a higher status in the school .

"Are you going to practice in isolation?" Wen Xin asked curiously .

"I'm still in the Gathering Yuan State . Seclusion isn't for me . Three or four hours of practice a day will be my limit . Even if I spend the time left over studying swordsmanship, I'll still have time to spare, so I'm going to go on an adventure . I won't come back until I achieve the peak of the late stage," Jiang Chen said .

"You're leaving?" Meng Hao and Wen Xin looked at each other . They saw surprise in each other's eyes .

Li Qin was waiting outside for such a chance . Wasn't he playing with fire if he left at this moment?

"The grand formation is able to transport me out without leaving any traces . The thing is, I don't know where to go yet . There's no place for me in the territory of the dynasty," Jiang Chen said .

The Hundred Thousand Mountains was surely not a challenge for him, while the other places were too dangerous for him .

"Go to the Vermilion Bird City . More than half of the schools' tasks are performed there . I'll go with you," Wen Xin said .

"Count me in!" Meng Hao said immediately .

The Vermilion Bird City?

Jiang Chen kept his silence . He had heard of this place . It was outside of the Xia Dynasty .

There had been an ancient state called the Vermilion Bird State . Despite its small size, it was powerful . Then it collapsed for some unknown reason and had been history ever since .

The Vermilion Bird City had been the capital of the Vermilion Bird State . By then, when people had mentioned the Vermilion Bird City, they hadn't simply meant the city, but the whole ancient country .

It became the first choice for disciples on adventures, because there was a rumor regarding its buried treasure .

It was said that when the country collapsed, the people there buried all their treasures underneath the ground for their descendents to discover .

But after so many years, no one had ever seen those legendary treasures . However, people had found a lot of practicing resources there and endless monsters and beasts .

There were all kinds of people living in the current Vermilion Bird City . It was a disordered place .

Many wanted criminals of the Xia Dynasty had fled there .

"In a word, when you get to the Vermilion Bird City, even if you don't want any trouble, the trouble will come to you . "

"Then let's go there . " Jiang Chen was a fighting genius . Of course he wanted more opportunities to fight .

"Meng Hao and I will take a look at the tasks . We can fulfill some of them while on the adventure . "

Wen Xin was firm . She left the Redcloud Peak with Meng Hao immediately .

Li Qin's holy awareness shrouded the whole Redcloud Peak . When she detected anyone going in or out of the peak, she would come immediately .

But once she found out it wasn't Jiang Chen, she would leave disappointedly .

"If we don't get rid of this trouble, she might start a slaughter one day," Wen Xin said, displeased .

"It's said she and her brother were orphans . It's true she could go too far," Meng Hao said .

Wen Xin snorted and didn't reply .

As for Jiang Chen, he told Fan Tu he was going to take an adventure, so he handed over control of the peak's formation to Fan Tu .

At the same time, he told Fan Tu not to let the Jiang's disciples leave the Redcloud Peak in a group .

Jiang Chen didn't know when Li Qin would go crazy .

"Young lord, don't worry about it . I'll take charge of everything . "

With the help of sky-level martial arts methods and panaceas, Fan Tu had advanced a lot . He had achieved the completed late stage before Jiang Chen .

"I'll help you remove all of the obstacles when I achieve the Mental Wander State!" Fan Tu said .

"I'm waiting for that day," Jiang Chen smiled . When Wen Xin and Meng Hao returned, the three left the Redcloud Peak secretly under the cover of the formation .

When they were out of range of Li Qin's holy awareness, the three left the school by airship .

However, the Natural Law School was big . Jiang Chen's airship was recognized by someone else, and Li Qin got the news soon .

She hurried up, intending to catch up with him, but had no idea which direction he had gone .

Then, many disciples of the school saw Li Qin floating in the sky with a gloomy expression .

"Jiang Chen, I'll make you pay the price!"

Something occurred to her suddenly . Then she set out in a certain direction .

Jiang Chen would be surprised if he had seen her, because she was heading for the Hundred Thousand Mountains!
