The red-clothed woman covered her cheeks with her hands. She didn’t come back to her senses for a long while. Even her companions were dumbfounded.
 

They weren’t dumbfounded due to Jiang Chen’s great power, but because he had unexpectedly dared to assault the red-clothed woman.
 


Let’s leave.
After Jiang Chen had dealt with the magical beast, he left calmly with Xia Houjie.
 


I will kill you! I will surely kill you!
The red-clothed woman flew into a rage and shouted loudly after him. She had never been treated like this, and it was a great insult to her.
 

As the woman faced the respectful gazes of her companions, she took a paper crane and imbued energy into it. The paper crane started burning. It turned into pure energy that took a concrete shape and flew away.


 


They will go to the closest exit,
a person next to the woman said.
 


Let’s also go there,
the red-clothed woman said, watching the direction where the paper crane had flown.
 

As they were traveling, Xia Houjie recounted excitedly what had happened.
 


It’s so refreshing, it’s so refreshing!

 

As Xia Houjie thought about the red-clothed woman’s reaction, he felt as if he had finally managed to give vent to all his pent-up frustrations.
 

Just after this, Xia Houjie got pensive and said,
Jiang Chen, that woman is the Nalan family’s young miss, and her big brother, Nalan Ying, is the strongest expert in the second-rank group. He surely won’t take this lying down, so why don’t we avoid him?

 


Avoid him?
Jiang Chen said curiously.
 


Let’s go to the more distant exit and evade them.

 


Is that big brother that you have just mentioned also in the Ancient Ruins?
 


That’s right.



 


So you shouldn’t worry about anything.
Jiang Chen revealed a mysterious smile and didn’t say anything further about this matter, while he also didn’t change his plans.
 

…..
 

In another region, three youths who possessed powerful auras were rushing toward the entrance.
 


We have gotten great profits in the Ancient Ruins, but we didn’t get an extreme martial technique.

 


That’s right, but we fared better than the unlucky people who were killed by that terrifying guy’s sword.

 


How can an extreme martial technique be so powerful that it can let an intermediate-stage Martial Emperor run amok.

 

Those three people were experts of the second-rank group, and they didn’t just know what had happened atop the sea, they had even experienced it personally.
 

At this moment, they were chatting idly.
 

All of a sudden, the man flying in the front came to a stop, and the man and woman behind him almost ended up ramming into his back.
 

The man and woman exchanged a glance. They didn’t dare to get angry at the other man, and they asked in confusion,
Senior brother Nalan? What is going on?



 

Senior brother Nalan didn’t speak. He just looked at his right side.
 

After a short while, a shining crane flew over.
 


My little sister has run into mishaps. I have to go deal with this,
senior brother Nalan’s expression became unsightly as he responded.
 


Senior brother, let us go there with you. We’ll see who dared to bully our Nalan family.

 


That’s right, let’s see what kind of guy is so insensible.

 

The man and woman, who were aware that their senior brother was very protective of his relatives, immediately expressed their opinions.
 


Okay, let’s go.

 

…..
 

Jiang Chen and Xia Houjie had reached the exit. This land’s weather was unstable, and the sky had been distorted by a formless power. Once such power reached a certain threshold, a passage would be opened here.
 

There were many people waiting in this area, and they all wore grave and nervous expressions.


 

Since they had all survived in the Ancient Ruins up to the exit day, they had all made good profits. Now, since they were all gathered here, they felt as if they had become distinct targets. They were afraid that someone who wanted to reap what he hadn’t sown would steal their possessions.
 

Jiang Chen noticed that several people’s faces were flustered, and they were frequently looking around. No one knew what they had gotten.
 

Jiang Chen chuckled. It was unknown whether it should be said that those people were too cautious or that he was just too careless.
 

Xia Houjie also wore a restless look and was afraid that people would rob him, while he was also afraid of the Nalan family. He had a good understanding of the red-clothed woman and was aware that she wouldn’t let that insult go. She would surely search out her brother and ask him to help her.
 

If they managed to leave before the Nalan family found them, it would be fine. However, if they didn’t leave before they were found, they would face great trouble. It didn’t matter how confident Jiang Chen was, as Nalan Ying was a famous expert in the second-rank group.
 

While Xia Houjie was praying for the Nalan family’s siblings to not arrive, the two siblings had already met each other.
 

When Nalan Ying saw his little sister’s face that was still swollen, his expression became stormy and flames of anger burned within his eyes.
 

The man and woman who had followed Nalan Ying realized that the person who had made such an assault would suffer a stroke of bad luck.
 


Big brother!

 

Since Nalan Yu was before her big brother, she didn’t show her arrogant side, and she wore an aggrieved look. If hatred didn’t appear occasionally in the depths of his eyes, one might have assumed that she had turned into a different person.


 


You can be at ease. I will teach that guy a lesson.

 

Nalan Ying looked in the exit’s direction and spoke in a deep voice,
Even if he goes outside, I won’t let this matter go.

 

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yu was relieved.
 

They went to the closest exit, and, when they reached it, they found out that the passage hadn’t been opened yet, while more and more people were arriving.
 


There he is!
Nalan Yu shouted excitedly and pointed at Jiang Chen and Xia Houjie, who weren’t far from them. She didn’t expect that those two guys wouldn’t even try to lie low.
 


Could it be that they assumed that the most dangerous region was the safest?
Nalan Yu didn’t care about the reason, she was just happy to find them.
 

Nalan Yu strode before her big brother and went toward Jiang Chen and Xia Houjie.
 


You should kneel down, and entreat me to forgive you. As for you, you should give yourself 1,000 slaps.

 

Nalan Yu felt as if she had already gotten a victory, and she started ordering the defeated people around.
 


It’s really Nalan Ying who is done for.
As Xia Houjie looked at these people, his heart sank, but he said,
Miss Nalan, don’t go too overboard. It isn’t so easy to push around my Xia family.

 

TSK! TSK! TSK!
Xia Houjie, you are only a direct descendant of the Xia family, while my grandfather is the Family Lord. As long as my big brother supports me, what can you do?

 

Nalan Yu just scoffed disdainfully in response to Xia Houjie’s words, and she didn’t even cast a glance at Jiang Chen.
 


As for you, why aren’t you kneeling yet?
she shouted at Jiang Chen.
 

This growing dispute had evoked the curiosity of the crowd, and soon they got an understanding of what had occurred.
 

Since an influential family’s descendant depended upon her status and backer to bully people, it didn’t really matter who was in the wrong.
 



Are you sure that you want me to kneel?
Jiang Chen asked softly.
 


What nonsense are you spouting? Did you assume that this matter will come to an end without your kneeling down? Since you have dared to treat me in such a way, I will teach you a severe lesson,
Nalan Yu’s expression was filled with rancor, as she wore a murderous gaze.
 

As Jiang Chen looked at the people behind the woman, his smile became brighter.
I’m just afraid that you can’t take my bow.

 


Are you trying to crack a joke? I can’t take it? Stop trying to bluff.
Nalan Yu’s gaze was filled with disdain, and she didn’t take Jiang Chen seriously.
 

Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and didn’t say anything further.
 


You won’t kneel, will you? Big brother!
Nalan Yu glared at Jiang Chen and called her brother to intervene.
 


Yu’er, is this the person you were talking about?

 

Nalan Ying had followed his little sister here, but he didn’t attack as decisively as his sister had expected. Instead, his expression had gone through a subtle change.
 


It’s this guy. Brother, what you are still waiting for? Attack!
Nalan Yu started urging her brother.
 


Shut up!

 


However, Nalan Ying unexpectedly flew into a rage and yelled at Nalan Yu, before he took five steps forward and went toward Jiang Chen.
 


Senior brother, my little sister is insensible. So please be forgiving and don’t pay any heed to her.
