Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 29 What people want

In Mihun Bay, the fog was still thick. A small boat came from the downstream of Qingyuan River, but eventually it sank into the thick fog and disappeared.

"It has indeed changed."

Standing at the bow, watching the mist spreading before his eyes, Jiang Chen's thoughts kept turning, his perception diverged, trying to capture the mystery in it.

Jinsha Valley was looted, a large number of management personnel were killed or injured, and the third in command, Zhao Meng, disappeared without a trace. This incident caused quite a stir within the Dangjiang bandits. In the end, Tie Ren Tu personally wrote a letter to Jiang Chen, asking Jiang Chen to return to Muyu Island. On the one hand, it was to discuss the subsequent development of Jinsha Valley, and on the other hand, it was to congratulate him on his promotion to a first-class warrior.

After receiving the letter from Iron Man Butcher, Jiang Chen thought for a while and decided to go. To be honest, he was quite interested in Iron Man Butcher's special situation. A living dead like him was somewhat similar to the zombies he had seen at the end of the world. The only difference was that he had complete intelligence, while the zombies were real walking dead.

In addition, he still needs to use his identity as the leader of the Dangjiang bandits to do some things. To be honest, if he feels comfortable staying there, he doesn't mind staying in the Dangjiang bandits for a period of time in the future. At least here he doesn't need to worry about many things, and he can have more time for his own practice.

"Boss, we're almost at Muyu Island."

The pier of Muyu Island was already in sight. Seeing that Jiang Chen was still daydreaming and hesitating for a moment, Shitou walked forward and whispered a reminder.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen opened his eyes and withdrew his perception.

“It seems there are more people this time than last time.”

Turning his gaze towards the dock and looking at the crowd of people, Jiang Chen said casually.

The last time he left, there were many people who saw him off, but far fewer than today, and the reason was very simple. Although he had been designated as the fourth in command at that time, his relationship with the third in command had reached a freezing point, which made many people feel uneasy. But today is different. The third in command, Zhao Meng, has become a thing of the past.

In fact, many people are speculating that Jiang Chen will most likely become the new leader after returning to Muyu Island this time. Although the three-year period has not yet expired, he has already broken through to the first-class level. In addition, Zhao Meng's defection has caused quite a stir within the Dangjiang bandits. At this time, the possibility of Jiang Chen taking the position is still very high.

It is precisely because of this that, after knowing that Jiang Chen would return to the island today, many people waited here early.

"Congratulations to the big boss on his promotion to first-class."

"Welcome back to the island, Big Boss."

The moment Jiang Chen stepped off the boat, congratulations rang out one after another.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen felt no emotion, but Shi Tou, who was following behind Jiang Chen, straightened his back.

At this moment, on top of the wooden fish, Tie Ren Tu and the second in command Zhou Quan watched this scene silently.

"That's what people want."

Looking at the bustle on the dock, Iron Man Butcher spoke. He was tall and facing the sunlight, leaving a long shadow behind him.

Hearing this, Zhou Quan, who was standing aside, shook his head in disapproval.

"This is not what Jiang Wangren wants, but what you, the boss, want. You are just lending him this heart temporarily."

In a low voice, Zhou Quan expressed his opinion.

Others may not know, but he knows clearly that the previous news was deliberately released by Tie Ren Tu in order to pave the way for Jiang Chen to become the new head. Of course, the premise of all this is that Jiang Chen can pass the assessment.

"Since he came back without hesitation, it seems Jiang Wang has passed the first level. If that's the case, the next step will be easy."

Looking out at the dock, thoughts flashed through Zhou Quan's mind.

In his opinion, Zhao Meng, the former third in command, was the natural culprit for the Jinsha Valley incident, but there were still significant doubts. Jiang Wang, the guardian of Jinsha Valley, was most likely scheming. It was for this reason that Tie Ren Tu had specifically sent Jiang Wang back to Muyu Island, just to see how he would react. If Jiang Wang returned cleanly, then all would be well. A few scheming things wouldn't hurt, after all, even a small fry in the Dangjiang bandits had their own motives. As long as they were useful, they were fine. If they showed hesitation, or even made excuses to delay, that would be another matter.

Hearing Zhou Quan's words, Tie Ren Tu laughed.

Not long after, under the watchful eyes of Tie Ren Tu and Zhou Quan, Jiang Chen climbed to the top of the wooden fish.

"You've already broken through to the first level. Come and join me."

Without beating around the bush, Tie Ren Tu spoke with a smile.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen did not refuse. He knew that Tie Ren Tu wanted to test him, and he also wanted to test Tie Ren Tu's strength.

Seeing this, Tie Ren Tu was very satisfied and took Jiang Chen directly to a martial arts training ground.

"I'm best at horizontal training. As long as you can force me to take a step back, you'll win this time."

Standing in the field like an iron man, Iron Man Tu's tough face was full of confidence.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen's body was like willow catkins, passing through the flowers, and he directly chopped out with a palm, which was the Heart-Destroying Palm.

Seeing this, Tie Ren Tu's expression remained unchanged and he also pushed out a palm. If Jiang Chen's Heart-Destroying Palm was all about femininity, then his palm technique was all about strength and fierceness.

Buzz, the two palms collided, and a sharp palm wind rose. Tie Ren Tu's body did not move, only the corner of his clothes was lifted up, while Jiang Chen's body quickly retreated.

"What terrifying physical strength."

His body was like willow catkins, and he used his body skills to continuously release the force. He turned his gaze to the Iron Man Butcher, and Jiang Chen's eyes moved slightly.

Although he did not use the methods of a cultivator in that palm strike just now, his strength in martial arts was not concealed at all. He simply did not use his murderous intent. Under such circumstances, although they were both of the same level, he was indeed easily repelled by Iron Man Butcher.

If it weren't for his exquisite body movements that allowed him to continuously absorb the force, he would have been injured by that palm strike just now.

"He's not like an ordinary person. I don't know if it's because of his extraordinary talent or the magic he practiced, or maybe it's a combination of the two."

A thought came to his mind, and with a point of his finger, Jiang Chen rushed forward again. He became more and more curious about the situation of Iron Man Butcher.

Seeing this, Tie Ren Tu couldn't help but smile. Jiang Chen's performance was even better than he had expected. Now it seemed that Jiang Chen was indeed a martial arts genius.

In this way, the two men fought in a group, one was graceful and agile, and the other was as still as a mountain.

Outside the arena, Zhou Quan couldn't help but reveal a trace of sigh on his face as he watched this scene.

After he was promoted to the first-class level, he had fought with the Iron Man Butcher. It was that fight that completely extinguished the arrogance in his heart. Only those who had fought with the Iron Man Butcher could truly understand how terrifying he was.

Although he is best at horizontal training, he is also proficient in palm, fist, and leg techniques. The most terrifying thing is that he has an inhuman body. His physique is extremely strong and is difficult to penetrate by swords and spears. He is like a human-shaped beast, and his strength has long surpassed the limits of the so-called first-class warriors.

"Jiang Wang's performance is indeed much better than my past self. It's no exaggeration to call him a martial arts genius. It's a pity that he encountered a true martial arts monster. To be honest, what I'm most puzzled about now is why the boss hasn't broken through to the Grandmaster level yet. If the boss can't achieve Grandmaster status, I can't think of anyone else in the world who can."

Seeing the two people fighting continuously, Zhou Quan's thoughts drifted away quietly.
