Dragon Tiger Mountain, Uncle-Master Jiang

The fat man was utterly shocked. Dragon Tiger Mountain was a legendary place, and everyone who came out of Dragon Tiger Mountain was extraordinary.

He had never imagined that Zhang Banxian possessed such an identity.

Then what was Jiang Chen's identity? Why did Zhang Banxian call him Uncle-Master?

Before the fat man could ask, Zhang Banxian took out a talisman and said, "I'll go meet up with Uncle-Master Jiang first. Stay here and wait for us to return."

The fat man had no time to think about anything else. Jiang Chen's safety was what mattered most right now. He hurriedly nodded. "You both be careful."

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen had already activated a talisman and arrived at Sacred Heart Academy.

Sacred Heart Academy was now tightly surrounded by the Law Enforcement Team. Some of those who had escaped from the academy had already been moved to a safe place.

Jiang Chen asked around and discovered that his younger sister was not in the resettlement area.

He asked the students who had escaped from Sacred Heart Academy, "Has anyone seen Jiang Xiaolan?"

"Jiang Xiaolan from Class 3, Grade 8!"

He asked three times, but no one answered. Just as he was about to go inside himself, a timid voice spoke up. "I'm Wang Wenya from Class 3, Grade 8. Jiang Xiaolan is my deskmate. I remember her saying she was going to the infirmary behind the sports field to get something."

With news of his sister, Jiang Chen was overjoyed. He turned to enter Sacred Heart Academy, only to be stopped by the Law Enforcement Team. "Sir, you can't go in. It's dangerous inside!"

"Dangerous my ass! My sister is in there. I have to go!"

"You cannot enter. The Law Enforcement Team exists to protect the safety of every citizen."

A member of the Law Enforcement Team spoke.

Looking at the fully armed Law Enforcement Team, Jiang Chen drew out his Zanpakuto. "I'll say it once more. My sister is inside. Whoever stops me dies!"

A bone-chilling murderous intent spread from Jiang Chen's body, making everyone shudder.

To the battle-hardened Law Enforcement Team, it had only a slight effect. Two members stepped forward to block Jiang Chen. "Sir, we'll find a way to rescue your sister. Please go to the Safe Zone and do not interfere with our rescue efforts."

"I said move!" Jiang Chen could not be bothered to waste words as he prepared to draw his blade.

"Let him in!" At that moment, a calm voice came from behind Jiang Chen. A man in military uniform, wearing rank insignia and bearing a scar across his face, spoke.

"Chief, there are orders from above..."

"You can try to stop him, but you can't. His level has already surpassed S-Class! I can sense it."

What?! This ordinary-looking young man was already S-Class?

At his age, they had only been B-Class at best!

The difference between S-Class and B-Class was like the difference between heaven and earth.

This was far too unbelievable!

"Let him in. We might even reduce the casualties this way!" The Law Enforcement Team captain glanced at Jiang Chen. "Kid, take care of yourself."

Jiang Chen gave a slight nod, then charged straight inside.

He kept repeating in his heart, Xiao Lan, wait for me.

"Uncle-Master Jiang, I'm here!"

Not long after Jiang Chen entered, Zhang Banxian arrived.

He looked around but did not see Jiang Chen, so he asked, "Have any of you seen a young man carrying a blade?"

"Do you mean the young man the chief just let in?" asked a Law Enforcement Team member at the entrance.

"Yes, that's my Uncle-Master Jiang. You said he went inside?"

Zhang Banxian inwardly cried out in alarm. Humanoid monsters possessed human intelligence and were extremely difficult to deal with. Most of them had at least five hundred years of cultivation. For Uncle-Master Jiang, who had only just awakened his abilities, to face an S-Class Demonic Beast was practically... treating his own life as nothing.

Before his Master had sent him down the mountain, he had repeatedly instructed him to take good care of Jiang Chen.

Yet he had arrived one step too late and allowed Jiang Chen to enter such a dangerous place.

He needed to support Uncle-Master Jiang immediately.

With that thought, Zhang Banxian raised his foot to enter.

"Unauthorized personnel are not allowed inside!"

"An elder of Dragon Tiger Mountain is here, and you still dare to talk nonsense!"

As he spoke, Zhang Banxian tossed out a token. When the guards saw it, their attitude immediately changed. "So it's the Great Celestial Master. Please forgive our disrespect!"

They immediately became curious about Jiang Chen's identity. He was so young, yet his background was so formidable.

Zhang Banxian could not be bothered to waste words on them. He directly summoned his jade sword and flew inside.

He shouted in his heart, Uncle-Master Jiang, I'm coming! You mustn't let anything happen to you!

Meanwhile, Jiang Chen was trapped within a mass of black mist.

There was something wrong with this black mist. Jiang Chen discovered that the more of it he inhaled, the hazier his consciousness became.

However, breaking through this mist should not be difficult.

Jiang Chen directly raised his Zanpakuto and chanted, "Bloom, Glaze!"

Transparent flames spread outward from Jiang Chen in every direction.

The black mist rapidly vanished the moment it touched the transparent flames.

From deep within the black mist came a weak female voice. "What kind of flame is this? It burns so badly. It's even stronger than a Taoist's Samadhi True Fire."

Following the voice, Jiang Chen looked over and saw a woman in ancient white robes, with a lotus flower in her hair and a graceful figure, standing there pitifully.

Her beautiful eyes carried a bewitching power as she looked at Jiang Chen and said, "Sir, it hurts so much!"

Any man would find it difficult to remain unmoved by such a beauty.

But Jiang Chen ignored her. A panel appeared before him.

Target: girl in white dress

Species: Millennium Demonic Beast

True Form: Yin soul

Level: S-Class!

This was the demon that had put his sister in danger. How could he let her go?

He raised his Zanpakuto, ready to cut off the demon's head!

The girl in white dress glared at Jiang Chen. She had not expected her charm technique to have no effect whatsoever on an ordinary person with no cultivation.

If that was the case, then die!

The girl transformed, becoming a vicious ghost with a blue face and protruding fangs as she pounced at Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen showed no courtesy either and chanted, "Bankai!"

The Battle Soul Blade in Jiang Chen's hand vanished. A colossal dragon wreathed in Glaze flames, carrying world-destroying power, turned and swallowed the thousand-year female ghost whole.

"Aaaahhh!"

The thousand-year female ghost screamed, then said unwillingly, "Grandmother will avenge me!"

At that moment, Zhang Banxian, who had rushed over in haste, was so stunned by the sight before him that he could not speak.

Was this Jiang Chen's strength? With strength like this, did he even need protection?

It would be more accurate to say Uncle-Master Jiang should protect him.

He had eliminated this thousand-year demon so quickly. This was far too outrageous!

He could not believe his eyes, but the scene before him left him no choice but to believe that Jiang Chen's strength was truly unfathomable.

Zhang Banxian stared at Jiang Chen standing there for a long while before finally approaching. "Uncle-Master Jiang, are you all right?"

"I'm fine, just a little weak."

Bankai had consumed too much soul power, and he needed some time to recover. But he was worried about Xiao Lan's safety and could not afford to care about that.

He hurried to the nearby infirmary, opened the door, and called out, "Xiao Lan, Xiao Lan..."

He called several times, but Xiao Lan did not respond.

He immediately grew anxious, thinking, Xiao Lan, please don't let anything happen to you.

Seeing the students huddled together in the infirmary, Jiang Chen ignored his discomfort and asked, "Does anyone know Jiang Xiaolan? Where is she?"

At that moment, a girl could not hold back her tears. "Xiao Lan, she..."

"Waaah... It's all my fault. I didn't protect Xiao Lan!"

Jiang Chen jolted and immediately asked, "What happened to Xiao Lan?!"
