Chapter 714: Unfairly Judging Someone With Sinister Thoughts, Jian Que’s Betrayal
Shang Honghua was one of the most remarkable Emperors in the Extraterritorial Battlefield. In the past few years since becoming an Emperor, she had racked up an impressive number of combat merits, with no intention of stopping. Furthermore, because of her rapid cultivation progress, she had been hailed as the one with the most potential of being a Daoist Celestial within the next thousand years!
Someone like her would no doubt become famous.
As Stronghold Eighteen was adjacent to Stronghold Seventeen, it was no surprise that the mercenaries from the former would recognize Shang Honghua.
“I can’t believe you’ve come to our rescue, Sister Honghua. You have my deepest gratitude. I’m Jian Que, commander of the Sword Tribe.” The Sword Tribe commander’s eyes lit up and immediately greeted her with a fist salute.
He was a Heavenly Imperial, while Shang Honghua was only an Initial Emperor cultivator despite her numerous achievements. However, he was so polite to her only because of Heavenly Imperial Ghostblade.
After all, Heavenly Imperial Ghostblade was a stronghold leader. Although they were similarly Heavenly Imperials, Heavenly Imperial Ghostblade was more powerful and had a higher status. As such, he was on a whole other level compared to him.
“Greetings, Daoist Brother.” Shang Honghua nodded. The Sword Tribe was considered a large force among the eighty-one strongholds in the Extraterritorial Battlefield.
After having a friendly chat for a while, Chu Kuangren and Shang Honghua left with the Redshirt Army.
Looking at their backs, one of the Sword Tribe cultivators said with envy, “Oh, how I envy Brother Chu. I wish I could be like him, going on expeditions with someone like Shang Honghua and being close to her.”
“Yeah, why don’t you take a look at who he is? He’s a Heavenly Imperial and not an ordinary one as well. That Mid-rank Heavenly Imperial from the Blood Tribe didn’t even stand a chance against him.”
“That’s right. He’s too powerful.”
Jian Que frowned and said, “I heard he only became an Emperor just a few years ago. How is he a Heavenly Imperial already? His rate of progress is way more terrifying than Shang Honghua!”
“I also heard that he’s cruel and merciless, having killed several sky-prides in the Sword Tribe that had much potential. He was the one that killed our Supreme Daoist Physique host. If he were to make the Sword Tribe his enemy in the Extraterritorial Battlefield, we’d definitely be in great trouble.”
The Sword Tribe cultivators who heard this were dumbfounded.
They were cultivators of the Sword Tribe too.
However, that thought had never crossed their mind.
Although Chu Kuangren was once an enemy of the Sword Tribe, they were now in the Extraterritorial Battlefield. Everything and everyone was focused on defeating the Blood Tribe, their common enemy.
As long as the Sword Tribe did not bring him trouble, he would not do the same to them. Besides, he just saved them moments ago!
‘Aren’t you unfairly judging a noble person like him with such sinister thoughts!’
Everyone was speechless.
‘We better get a new commander once we get back.’
‘Our commander is not only foolish but also selfish and narrow-minded. Even if we don’t end up dead, will there be any future for us if we’re under the command of someone like him?’
Everyone could not help but secretly think of that.
“Everyone, take a rest for now. We’ll continue searching for the Chaos Emblems later. D*mn it. That Superb-tier Chaos Emblem was taken just like that.”
Jian Que uttered with dissatisfaction.
One of the cultivators at the side reminded him. “Commander, seeing that a terrible battle has happened here, why don’t we rest somewhere else?”
“What are you afraid of? Everyone here is busy looking for Chaos Emblems. No one will have the time to bother with us. Besides, with me around, there’s nothing you should fear. I’m a Heavenly Imperial, after all. I don’t think we’ll be so unlucky to meet another Blood Tribe Heavenly Imperial again,” Jian Que said while his lips curled into a smirk.
“Um…”
That Sword Tribe cultivator shook his head frustratingly after seeing that his suggestion was useless.
Everyone continued resting. However, not long after, a powerful aura descended from the air, enveloping all the cultivators in that instant.
That powerful aura caught everyone off guard.
“It’s the Blood Tribe!”
“And this aura… It’s a Heavenly Imperial!”
Jian Que’s expression changed.
He could not believe what was happening.
‘No way, this is not real.’ To think he would encounter another Blood Tribe Heavenly Imperial again and during a time like this too.
There was no way his luck was so bad!
“Oh, a human Heavenly Imperial? Interesting. Are you the ones who killed all of these Blood Tribe troops?” A Blood Tribe man flapping his webbed wings arrived at the scene. After seeing the pile of Blood Tribe cultivator corpses there, a cold glint shot out from his eyes. A chill ran down everyone’s spine.
Beside the Blood Tribe man was an old man. That old man was a little unique as his toes were pointing down as if he was not using any energy at all and was floating in mid-air.
He was a member of the Blood Spirit Tribe, a race of the Blood Tribe!
Besides, that Blood Spirit Tribe man was also a Heavenly Imperial!
Two Heavenly Imperials!
Jian Que gulped, feeling that today was the unluckiest day of his life. Having barely survived earlier, he just had to encounter two Heavenly Imperials again. It seemed like the heavens did not want him to live!
“We’re not the ones who killed them.”
Jian Que quickly said.
“Oh? If you guys are not responsible for this, then where’s the one who killed them?” That Blood Spirit Heavenly Imperial asked indifferently.
“If I tell you, will you spare our lives?”
“Hmph, in your dreams.”
That Blood Tribe Heavenly Imperial sneered and prepared to attack.
However, Jian Que hurriedly shouted, “The one who killed your tribe members here has a Superb-tier Chaos Emblem!”
“Oh, I’m listening.”
The Blood Tribe Heavenly Imperial stopped his attack.
“I’m sure you know how valuable a Superb-tier Chaos Emblem is. I’ll only tell you where they are if you promise to spare me.”
Jian Que said through his teeth.
He has not even recovered from his injuries yet. If he were to fight the two Blood Tribe Heavenly Imperials, he would definitely die.
“Although a Superb-tier Chaos Emblem is very rare, it’s not enough to exchange for a Heavenly Imperial’s life,” the Blood Spirit Tribe’s Heavenly Imperial said.
“What if I tell you Shang Honghua is with them?”
“Commander!”
The surrounding Sword Tribe cultivators got anxious.
“Everyone shut up!” Jian Que yelled coldly.
“Shang Honghua…”
The two Heavenly Imperials got interested when they heard that. An extremely chilling killing intent was immediately revealed from their eyes. “The Shang Honghua who has risen to fame these few years and is getting stronger in her cultivation?”
“That’s right.”
“Interesting. Is she the one who took the Superb-tier Chaos Emblem?”
“It’s not her, but the one who took the Chaos Emblem is with her. What do you think? The life of Shang Honghua and that Superb-tier Chaos Emblem… Are these two enough to exchange for my life?”
“Yes, they are.”
The Blood Spirit Tribe’s Heavenly Imperial nodded.
Compared to that Superb-tier Chaos Emblem, they were more interested in Shang Honghua. Her rate of progress in these few years had attracted the attention of the Blood Tribe. If they did not eradicate her soon, she would certainly become a terrifying foe of the Blood Tribe in the future.
“I want you to swear in the name of your Blood God that you’ll never harm me after I give you the whereabouts of Shang Honghua.”
Jian Que hurriedly said.
The Blood God was the supreme being that the Blood Tribe worshipped, and anyone who swore in the name of the Blood God would have to abide by it until the end.
“Hmph, how clever.”
The Blood Tribe’s Heavenly Imperial snickered.
The two of them soon swore in the name of the Blood God. After that, Jian Que told them the whereabouts of Chu Kuangren, Shang Honghua, and the others.
Once the Heavenly Imperials left, Jian Que’s looked at his men and said coldly, “I forbid anyone to speak of what happened today! Don’t blame me for disregarding our comradeship otherwise.”
Everyone’s face turned red with fear upon hearing what he said. Although they were very embarrassed by what he did, they could only accept it.
“I also did this to save you guys. If not, I’m afraid none of us would’ve survived.” After threatening them, Jian Que appealed emotionally to his men, temporarily calming everyone down for now.
