Divine War Pill Emperor

Wen Shiren’s expression shifted when he saw Jiang Chen force back one of his powerful guards with practically a single move.

Even the guard at the Martial King Third Heaven, whose cultivation was the same as Jiang Chen’s, was no match for him in a single exchange.

Wen Shiren’s expression changed slightly.

Even a Martial King Expert at the Fifth Heaven might not possess such combat power.

He knew his guards’ strength very well.

The four guards who had been sent flying, their faces ashen, charged forward again, ready to fight Jiang Chen to the death.

Wen Shiren immediately shouted, "That’s enough! Stop!"

"He was already holding back."

’If he hadn’t held back, the outcome would have been different. My men might have died right here.’

Wen Shiren had seen his fair share of experts in the Gambling City, but he realized he had never seen Jiang Chen before.

This puzzled him.

After all, he was well aware of nearly every Martial King Expert in the entire Fire Sparrow Kingdom.

But he didn’t recognize Jiang Chen, especially an expert this formidable.

The strength Jiang Chen displayed had indeed surprised him.

However, he still felt that it fell far short of his expectations.

Of course, even so, his perception of Jiang Chen changed in an instant.

His tone immediately improved.

"I am the Third Prince of the Fire Sparrow Kingdom, Wen Shiren."

He was clearly starting to take Jiang Chen seriously.

Jiang Chen already knew he was Wen Shiren.

He just grunted in acknowledgment.

"Third Prince, I’ve heard much about you. I wonder what business brings you to me today?"

Although he knew the man’s purpose, Jiang Chen had to pretend he didn’t.

He believed the display of strength just now was enough to make Wen Shiren see him in a new light.

’Of course, this definitely isn’t enough.’

And just now, Jiang Chen had not gone all out.

’If I had used the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, or even the Shadowless Sword, I could have neutralized all four of these guards in a single move.’

Because he practiced the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, Jiang Chen was far stronger than other experts at the same cultivation level.

Whether it was the Shadowless Sword or the Nine Heavens Spirit-Seizing Technique, both were extremely powerful Cultivation Techniques.

Sizing Jiang Chen up, Wen Shiren was struck by how young he seemed, perhaps even inexperienced.

Even though his combat power was impressive, it still wasn’t enough to turn the tide of Wen Shiren’s situation.

He sighed inwardly.

He said to Jiang Chen, "I was introduced by Miss Murong of the Treasure Elephant Pavilion."

"Could we speak somewhere more private?"

Afterward, Jiang Chen led Wen Shiren into the manor and into a room.

The two sat down.

"Please, speak."

Jiang Chen dropped his airs. He needed Wen Shiren’s help to kill Wen Shixi, so he couldn’t afford to be too arrogant.

Wen Shiren nodded.

"Miss Murong told me you have extraordinary skills. I happen to need someone to assist me in achieving a great cause."

"So, I’ve come specially to ask for your help."

"Once we succeed, I can promise you any reward you desire."

’He wouldn’t suspect someone introduced by Murong Xiangming of being a spy for his eldest or second brother, so he decided to be direct and honest.’

Jiang Chen fell into thought.

"It’s not impossible for me to help you, but I need to see your sincerity."

’It wasn’t that he wanted to make things difficult; he genuinely needed to gauge the prince’s attitude and see if helping him was worthwhile.’

Wen Shiren was taken aback, not expecting Jiang Chen to state conditions.

This made him somewhat dissatisfied with Jiang Chen again.

’Stating conditions before he’s even done anything.’

"What sincerity do you need from me?"

He asked with a frown.

With a wave of his hand, a piece of paper materialized in Jiang Chen’s palm, which he then slapped onto the table.

"Just this," he said lightly.

Wen Shiren’s eyes widened as he looked at the paper Jiang Chen had slapped on the table.

The four guards stared as well, their eyes practically bulging.

Finally, the guard at the Martial King Third Heaven whom Jiang Chen had defeated, glared and said, "This is extortion!"

That’s right. On Jiang Chen’s paper was a list of the exact materials he needed to refine the Blood Corpse Pills and Spirit Feeding Pills.

He had written a very large quantity.

The four guards all thought Jiang Chen was being utterly unreasonable.

Wen Shiren’s expression turned grim.

A quick estimate put the value of the items on the list at no less than five hundred million yuan crystals.

It could be said that Jiang Chen was truly making an exorbitant demand.

"Jiang Chen," he said, somewhat incensed, "this condition you’ve proposed is simply too much."

"I can’t possibly gather this many materials on short notice."

Jiang Chen smiled faintly. "There’s no rush. You can gather them slowly. Just find as much as you can."

"However, I do hope you can find them all in the near future."

He needed to refine a large number of Blood Corpse Pills and Spirit Feeding Pills to raise the cultivation of his Zombies. Once he did, he would command a large contingent of Martial Arts Sect experts.

At the very least, he had a way to evolve twenty Silver-haired Zombies into Golden-haired Zombie Kings in a short period of time.

That would be a full twenty Martial Arts Sect experts.

At that point, killing Wen Shixi would be no problem at all.

With twenty Martial Arts Sect experts, it might even be possible to conquer the entire Fire Sparrow Kingdom.

Currently, the Sovereign of the Fire Sparrow Kingdom was an expert at the Martial Arts Sect Sixth Layer Heaven.

His twenty Martial Arts Sect experts, combined with his Infinite Sword Array, could definitely conquer the Fire Sparrow Kingdom.

So the Blood Corpse Pills and Spirit Feeding Pills were very important to him.

Of course, while Jiang Chen spoke with nonchalant ease, Wen Shiren felt a throbbing headache.

Items worth nearly five hundred million yuan crystals... it would truly exhaust a huge portion of his savings.

Although the Fire Sparrow Kingdom wasn’t short on money, this was indeed a bit much.

Most importantly, he didn’t think Jiang Chen was worth that price.

He hesitated, wondering if he should just turn and walk away.

But after a moment of thought, Wen Shiren asked again, "This condition... it’s not impossible to agree to."

"However, if what you showed me earlier is the extent of your abilities, then it’s not enough."

Since they were negotiating, Wen Shiren had to set some conditions of his own.

’This is a partnership, not me being blatantly extorted by Jiang Chen.’

Jiang Chen smiled. "You think my strength is still not enough, is that it?"

Wen Shiren nodded very firmly.

"That’s right. With your current strength, I can’t see any hope."

"Miss Murong said your skills are extraordinary. I’d like to see for myself just how extraordinary they are."

Jiang Chen didn’t say much, but a thought stirred in his mind.

In his sea of consciousness, the Black Fire Spark pulsed for an instant.

The next moment, a black flame appeared between Jiang Chen’s fingers.

Almost at the instant Jiang Chen’s Black Fire appeared, the temperature in the entire room instantly soared to a terrifying height.

Even Wen Shiren and the four guards beside him had their expressions change drastically.

And Jiang Chen slowly pressed his hand, burning with Black Fire, onto the table.

The table, which was made of jade, began to burn in an instant. The Black Fire spread continuously, enveloping the stone table in just a moment.

Wen Shiren, who was still sitting nearby, felt his pupils contract violently. He shot to his feet and hastily retreated several steps, putting distance between himself and the Black Fire.

He stared intently at the burning stone table.

PFFT!

With a muffled sound, the entire stone table instantly evaporated, vanishing without a trace.

With a wave of Jiang Chen’s hand, the Black Fire vanished, and the room’s temperature returned to normal in an instant.
