After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad! Chapter 242

After entering the city, Jiang Chen and his companions casually chose an inn to stay in.

Despite the commotion outside the city gates, the inn inside the city was unaffected. It was filled with cultivators who were chatting and laughing.

The arrival of Jiang Chen and his group brought a montary silence to the inn.

At this mont, Jiang Lianyue was still clinging to Jiang Chen’s arm, her fair cheeks blooming with a happy smile.

Both of them were exceptionally attractive, and standing together, they gave off a sense of a match made in heaven, dazzling onlookers.

Zhang Hu followed behind them, occasionally glaring at the cultivators around them, acting like a bully by association.

After checking out Jiang Chen and Jiang Lianyue’s cultivation levels, many cultivators’ pupils shrank.

At such a young age, both were at the Heavenly Origin realm!

Especially Jiang Lianyue, whose aura was even more profound than Jiang Chen’s, clearly having reached the mid-stage of the Heavenly Origin realm.

“These two must be the chosen ones from so top-tier sect,” a cultivator murmured.

The others agreed and discreetly looked away, not wanting to stir up trouble.

As for Jiang Chen, he always wore a smug smile, and his walk was extrely arrogant.

Seeing that no one ca to cause trouble, he looked sowhat bored and then casually took a seat and ordered a cup of spiritual tea.

The city’s inn was an important place for cultivators to exchange information, and he intended to find out if there was any fresh news.

Sipping his tea, Jiang Chen’s eyes were slightly closed, but his attention was on the cultivators around him.

“Have you heard? Jiuyan Sect has beco a Demonic Sect!”

“Such big news, who in the Central Domain doesn’t know? I not only know about this, but I also heard that Jiuyan Sect has declared war on Billowing Clouds Sect, and now the latter has beco a subordinate sect.”

“Oh? Really? Billowing Clouds Sect is just a second-tier sect, why would Jiuyan Sect do this?”

“I heard that it’s because Billowing Clouds Sect detained a genius from Jiuyan Sect.”

“That’s right! The genius is nad Lu Lin, and he’s said to be a Human Sacred Body!”

“Holy shit, a Human Sacred Body? For real?”

“No need to doubt, this news is spreading like wildfire and many people know about it.”

“…”

This conversation made Jiang Chen pause.

No what? Who is Lu Lin?

And a Human Sacred Body?

In his nine reincarnations, how co he didn’t know about such an impressive figure in his own sect?

The current Jiuyan Sect was full of madn, and Jiang Chen couldn’t be bothered to think too deeply about the actions and words of madn.

Shaking his head, he turned his attention to another group of discussing cultivators.

“The Ghost Controlling Sect has been annihilated!”

“Yes, it was so sudden. Who would have thought that the millennium-old ghost sect would be destroyed overnight!”

“Buddha Old Ancestor and Seven Luminaries Sword Ancestor took action together. Naturally, the Ghost Controlling Old Ancestor was no match.”

“But how did it co to such a life-and-death struggle between Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss and Ghost Controlling Sect?”

“Who knows? But neither side is from our righteous path, so their mutual slaughter benefits us.”

“Indeed, but I also heard that after annihilating Ghost Controlling Sect, the Ghost Abyss Master didn’t return to Ghost Ridge Soul Abyss but stayed in the sa place, seemingly looking for sothing.”

“…”

Hearing this, Jiang Chen’s heart skipped a beat.

He hadn’t t that female ghost in this life, so she shouldn’t be looking for him. But for so reason, he had a bad premonition.

He felt like the female ghost’s target might actually be him!

‘Impossible, absolutely impossible,’ Jiang Chen reassured himself.

‘Maybe she’s looking for Jiushuang? After all, the Nine Abyss Ghost Fox requires nether fire to refine souls. Jiushuang must have had so contact with that female ghost!’

Thinking this way, it seed much more reasonable.

Calming down, Jiang Chen continued to gather information.

“Jiuyan Sect was once a millennium-old righteous sect, and Jiuyan Old Ancestor was known as a paragon of righteousness, but now it has fallen into a Demonic Sect! It’s really lantable!”

“Alas, I think it’s because of that Jiang Chen!”

“It must be! There’s a rumor that the people of Jiuyan Sect have all gone mad!”

“It must be Jiang Chen who used so evil thod of the Jiang family to drive the people of Jiuyan Sect insane!”

“Indeed, the rumor says wherever Jiang Chen goes, people go mad.”

“He’s detestable! That Jiang Chen is really a scourge of this world! I cannot coexist with him under the sa sky!”

“…”

This discussion left Jiang Chen speechless.

Eating lons only to find the lon eater is oneself? (TLN: Eating lons = following gossip, scandals, or drama as a bystander.)

What do they an by wherever he goes, people go mad?

Isn’t this Cold Realm City free from madn?

This is definitely slander and defamation!

Suddenly standing up, Jiang Chen looked towards the cultivator who claid he couldn’t coexist with him under the sa sky.

Imdiately, he let out a loud shout, “Great Majestic Heavenly Dragon!!”

“Roar!”

The Dharma pervades, and a golden dragon suddenly appears.

A massive golden dragon snakes out, knocking a cultivator flying while incidentally destroying the inn.

After the golden dragon vanishes and everything returns to normal, the cultivators who were just discussing animatedly a second ago find themselves amidst ruins the next.

They are all utterly dumbfounded.

“How dare you destroy my inn?” the innkeeper roars in anger.

As he speaks, the aura exclusive to the upper four realms presses directly towards Jiang Chen.

Facing the overwhelming aura, Jiang Chen doesn’t dodge or hide, a faint smile always on his lips.

“Master!” he shouts, turning his head.

“Hmph!”

A figure in red appears and releases a sky-filling phoenix fire with a cold snort.

The phoenix fire spreads, causing the cultivators to scatter and flee again.

The innkeeper, facing the phoenix fire directly, is burnt to a crisp in an instant.

“Too arrogant! The city guards won’t let you get away with this!” a cultivator yells while running away.

“Eldest Senior Brother, judging by the direction that cultivator is fleeing, he seems to be heading to the city lord’s mansion to snitch,” Zhang Hu quickly warns.

Jiang Chen has already guessed as much.

Not only is he unafraid, but he’s also sowhat looking forward to it.

The bigger the commotion, the better he can farm system rewards.

Sure enough, soon, hundreds of guards converge from all directions, surrounding Jiang Chen tightly.

A middle-aged man with a stern face steps out from among the guards, followed by the snitching cultivator.

“City Captain, it’s him!”

The snitching cultivator points at Jiang Chen’s nose and says, “This man fought recklessly within the city lord’s territory and even destroyed an inn! He’s too arrogant!”

The middle-aged man nods and looks at Jiang Chen, “Are you Jiang Chen?”

“Indeed.”

Jiang Chen admits frankly.

“Hisss—”

Hearing this, the surrounding cultivators all inhale sharply.

They hadn’t expected at all that the infamous Jiang family’s young master, Jiang Chen, who drives people mad wherever he goes, had actually co to Cold Realm City!

The snitching cultivator is also startled but still insists, “City Captain, there are rules in Cold Realm City. No fighting within the city! Even if he is the Jiang family’s young master, he cannot defy the city lord’s decree!”

“Hmm… indeed so…” the middle-aged man nods.

“I suggest we capture him and hand him over to the Imperial Dynasty for justice!” the snitching cultivator adds.

The middle-aged man nods again, indicating that it makes sense.

But just as he is about to act and Jiang Chen is ready to face the confrontation head-on, a guard rushes over anxiously and whispers sothing into the middle-aged man’s ear.

The middle-aged man frowns.

Then, he slaps the snitching cultivator across the face.

“Seize this troublemaker who fabricates lies and sows discord!” the middle-aged man orders loudly.

“Ah…?”

Holding his cheek, the snitching cultivator is bewildered.

How did it turn into him being tied up?

“The city lord’s decree states that in Cold Realm City, Jiang Chen can do whatever he wants!” the middle-aged man explains.

“?????”

At these words, there is an uproar around!
