Jie Ming was also greatly shocked at this moment. He knew his cultivation technique was extremely overbearing and his power was immense.
Among those at the same level, not many could compare to him in terms of strength.
Jiang Chen was only at the Martial Master Realm, Second Level. How could he possess such formidable power?
This young man's talent was too terrifying.
If Jiang Chen's realm were to catch up to his, wouldn't his strength completely crush his current self?
Jie Ming was a key disciple within the Yinluo Sect; otherwise, he wouldn't have been entrusted with leading this mission.
However, his luck was terrible. An accident occurred midway, and now the Demonic Soul Blade was in Jiang Chen's hands.
Not only did Jiang Chen not hide, but he even dared to launch a proactive attack. His boldness was beyond ordinary.
"Kid, I know your name is Jiang Chen. The Bloodfire Mercenary Group has already given us your information. As long as you obediently hand over that long saber and accept death, I can guarantee that our Yinluo Sect will not deal with your Jiang Family."
"If you don't cooperate, then you and the Jiang Family behind you will cease to exist," Jie Ming said coldly.
From their brief exchange just now, he knew Jiang Chen wouldn't be easy to deal with.
Moreover, Jiang Chen had helpers.
The strength of these two helpers was formidable, putting them in a passive position.
"Seeking death." Hearing that the other party knew his identity, Jiang Chen's killing intent intensified. These people could not be left alive.
It seemed his decision was correct; none of them should be spared.
They wanted to kill him and target the Jiang Family?
How could Jiang Chen allow such a thing to happen?
Jiang Chen then unsheathed the Demonic Soul Blade, and the true qi within his body transformed into demonic qi.
Instantly, an astonishing demonic aura emanated from Jiang Chen's entire body.
"This is..." Jie Ming's eyes widened. He hadn't expected Jiang Chen could transform into a demonic cultivator.
Actually, the Yinluo Sect was also a demonic cultivation sect, and their cultivation techniques leaned towards demonic cultivation.
Of course, they also had some righteous cultivation techniques; it depended on individual choice.
The so-called righteous and demonic cultivation techniques merely differed in the attribute of the true qi.
Righteous cultivation techniques were mostly extremely strong and yang-dominant, while demonic cultivation techniques leaned towards yin and evil.
Each had its merits.
However, many demonic cultivation techniques involved extremely bloody methods of practice, and those bloody demonic cultivation techniques were reviled by many.
This was also why many people held a certain prejudice against demonic cultivators.
Jiang Chen activated the Demonic Soul Blade, his eyes turning blood red.
"Die." Jie Ming was greatly alarmed, but even so, he had to kill Jiang Chen.
Furthermore, he recognized the Demonic Soul Blade in Jiang Chen's hand as the one he had lost. He hadn't expected Jiang Chen to have unsealed it.
Seeing such an astonishing display of power, this Demonic Soul Blade was definitely no ordinary item.
"Hegemonic Blade Art." Jiang Chen unleashed a fifth-tier martial skill, the Hegemonic Blade Art. The powerful blade technique directly slashed towards Jie Ming.
Clang. As the Spirit Weapons of both sides collided, Jie Ming was instantly sent flying.
His long sword nearly flew out of his hand.
Jiang Chen's strength had increased significantly.
Jie Ming was sent flying, but Jiang Chen didn't let up. He directly used Traceless Steps and charged forward.
Several saber lights flashed down.
Thwack, thwack, thwack, thwack. Jie Ming didn't even have time to scream before his head was severed. Then, several more slashes landed on his body, dismembering him.
The power was incredibly overbearing.
This was practically no different from an instant kill.
After using the Demonic Soul Blade, Jiang Chen's strength had increased dramatically.
Dealing with Jie Ming was extremely easy.
At this moment, Jiang Chen's eyes were blood red, his mind filled with slaughter. He looked towards the surrounding Yinluo Sect experts and the Bloodfire Mercenary Group members.
Jiang Chen's figure was like lightning, darting back and forth among these people.
Wherever he passed, a rain of blood fell, and these people died one after another.
He Yushi and Li Ji were also stunned.
The speed at which the two of them killed enemies combined wasn't even half of Jiang Chen's.
Some people tried to escape, but they were intercepted and killed by Li Ji and He Yushi.
Not a single person was allowed to get away.
As for Chen Luo of the Bloodfire Mercenary Group, his expression had also changed drastically, filled with fear. Jiang Chen's strength was too immense.
In front of Jiang Chen, their people had no power to fight back.
Chen Luo wanted to escape, but He Yushi forced him back.
When he turned around, he saw that Jiang Chen had already killed everyone else, leaving only him.
"Only you are left," Jiang Chen's voice echoed.
In Chen Luo's ears, this voice was like a death knell.
Li Ji and He Yushi also closed in, leaving him with no way to escape.
Chen Luo was no match for the two disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Now, with the powerful Jiang Chen here, he was definitely going to die.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me," Chen Luo panicked.
As a squad leader of the Bloodfire Mercenary Group, Chen Luo had done countless acts of killing and plundering.
Now that it was his turn to be the prey, he finally experienced that fear.
The fear of death.
He also couldn't believe that the Jiang Family of Qingyue Town had produced such a powerful prodigy as Jiang Chen.
As long as Jiang Chen didn't die prematurely, he would surely become a powerful figure in the future.
"Weren't your Bloodfire Mercenary Group always chasing me? Now that I'm here, what, scared?" Jiang Chen sneered.
Jiang Chen certainly remembered this Chen Luo. When he went to Snake King Valley before, it was this Chen Luo who led the Bloodfire Mercenary Group that ambushed him.
Jiang Chen had also fought Chen Luo when he attacked the Bloodfire Mercenary Group.
However, Jiang Chen's strength was not enough at the time to kill Chen Luo.
Now that Jiang Chen had entered the Martial Master Realm, Second Level, and was using the Demonic Soul Blade, even Jie Ming, who was at the Martial Master Realm, Ninth Level, was no match for him, let alone Chen Luo, who was at the Martial Master Realm, Seventh Level.
"It was all my fault before. As long as you let me go, I can have the Bloodfire Mercenary Group let go of your past actions," Chen Luo promised.
In reality, Chen Luo said this on the surface, but his heart was not thinking the same way.
His inner thought was that as long as he could escape and return to their stronghold, he would report Jiang Chen's strength.
With Jiang Chen's current combat power, perhaps only a Martial Grandmaster Realm expert could suppress and kill him.
He would seek revenge.
But how could Jiang Chen believe Chen Luo's words?
The Bloodfire Mercenary Group had a terrible reputation, which was well-known in the surrounding areas.
"That's right, before I die, I'll tell you a secret. A while ago, your stronghold's treasury was robbed, and I did it. I also killed your brother," Jiang Chen sneered.
"It was you..." Chen Luo's eyes widened. He never expected that Jiang Chen was the one who attacked the Bloodfire Mercenary Group a while ago.
He had even fought Jiang Chen at that time, but in the end, Jiang Chen still escaped.
The person they were dealing with was the same person.
In that battle, Jiang Chen had killed Chen Luo's brother, Chen Wei. Jiang Chen had personally heard Chen Luo's cry of grief at the time, calling Chen Wei his brother.
Chen Luo's face was filled with despair. It seemed he was not going to survive. However, before he died, he would not let Jiang Chen have an easy time.
"Jiang Chen, our Bloodfire Mercenary Group already knows your identity. I believe our hall master has also received this news. Soon, they will demand your surrender from your Jiang Family, and the Bloodfire Mercenary Group will avenge me," Chen Luo said, his eyes filled with hatred.
After speaking, he charged at Jiang Chen, unwilling to let Jiang Chen have an easy time even if he died.
Looking at the martial skill Chen Luo unleashed, a hint of disdain flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes. Too slow. In Jiang Chen's eyes, the movement was too slow.
"Pfft." Jiang Chen used Traceless Steps, instantly flashing past Chen Luo. A blade light flashed.
A bloody line appeared on Chen Luo's neck, and then his head fell off. His headless body collapsed.
Killed in one strike. Jiang Chen, in his demonic state, was too powerful.
