After he exerted all three of his abilities to the maximum, he finally found a small piece of clues in the thicket. This shrubland grove was slightly different from the one in front of him.
These bushes vaguely leaned in the same direction. Obviously something was passing by here and causing this little change.
With the ability of the Eye of God to discern meticulously, Jiang Chen finally found some footprints on the surrounding grass – were so faint that it could barely be detected.
These footprints are very well hidden. Jiang Chen searched all the way and followed them into the sea of bamboo. Jiang Chen's body was like an ape as he swung through the sea of bamboo, constantly relying on these clues and not letting go.
Finally, after half an hour, Jiang Chen appeared in front of the entrance of the underground secret room, deep within the sea of bamboo.
Jiang Chen took out one Plated Feather Thrower Dagger, and quietly followed the path of the dungeon.
There was actually his own world the further he got into the secret room. The entrance was small, but a wide expanse began to be seen after passing through the long passageway.
What Jiang Chen completely did not anticipate was that this vast expanse was actually an underground palace. The palace was not big, but all the furniture that should have been there was all there.
A large jade bed was installed at the end of the palace.
But an even more astonishing sight was present on the jade bed.
Madame Jade was currently naked and placed in the middle of the jade bed. There was not the slightest bit of clothing on his body, and all the important places of his were plastered in full.
The six female disciples of the Northern Sect were placed on both sides, three on each side. The three people on the left had also been stripped naked in the same way with no remains left on their bodies.
The silk robes of the three girls on the right had been partially opened. Although his robe had yet to fully open, the important places disappeared and reappeared like smoke. Including Wen Ziqi, all of them showed expressions of fear and horror as they looked at the person standing at the head of the bed.
That person was an honor student who became a messenger.
Jiang Chen was in no hurry to reveal himself. Separated by such a great distance, the disciple of honor had not found him either.
“Ck ck, indeed the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Haha, the old and young of the Northern Sect of Argus Star Palace have all been caught in one net. Ah, this is awesome!”
That person's voice carried some abnormal tones of astonishment. A pair of evil eyes swept across that seductive body as he let out a low roar like the sound of a savage beast.
These Northern Sect girls were all martial dao practitioners, each with an agile and graceful figure. Especially Madame Jade – her figure is even superior compared to female students.
If this female disciple was mostly a budding flower, then Madame Jade was a fresh, blooming flower filled with the romance of a young married woman.
“Should I eat the old first or taste the young first?”
That person smiled evilly, but his gaze stopped on Wen Ziqi. “This girl is polite and refined, and blushes even when she speaks. He must have a distinctive taste when tasted. He is the one.”
That person bowed as he spoke and started to undress Wen Ziqi.
Wen Ziqi's eyes showed a despairing and horrified fear as her tears flowed like beads.
Jiang Chen knew that it would be very unkind if he continued watching like this.
Coughing lightly, he walked out of the shadows and said with a smile, “Brother, you know how to enjoy the romance, okay. How can you enjoy such wonderful things alone?”
That person was like he was struck by lightning and his body suddenly shot away, landing in a corner. His hand had already grabbed the handle of the short sword as his evil eyes pierced towards Jiang Chen.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Chen chuckled. “Are you Shen Rong? Or Shen Rong's honor student?”
The man laughed out loud. “Shen Rong? Honor student? Haha, it is just a body that I use when hunting and picking flowers. If you want to find it, you can only go to the underworld.”
“This means you have killed the Southern Sect of Argus Star Palace, Shen Rong? You disguised as Shen Rong from the beginning?” Jiang Chen understood everything at once.
Shen Rong and the honor student who carried the message were actually the same person, and that was the person standing in front of him. Most likely this person was a Lotus Harvester.
“Haha, who are you really? Don't you think you're asking too many questions?” That person's tone of voice was dark and cold as his eyes were fixed on Jiang Chen, seemingly wanting to close all the way back with just his gaze.
“Lotus Harvester, you have courage in hunting and picking flowers in the area of influence of the sect.” Jiang Chen snorted coldly.
A piece of surprise flashed in the person's view. "You know me? Heh. Are you also one of the people who meddled in the Six Panel Door? Trying to uphold justice in the name of heaven?”
"You're right." Jiang Chen smiled faintly.
"Foolish man. Stupid." A trace of a strange smile suddenly appeared on the face of the Lotus Harvester. “If I have never met a thousand people who tried to uphold justice in the name of heaven, I have met at least eight hundred people. All these people are now sleeping soundly in the afterlife, you are the next one.”
“You are quite confident.” Jiang Chen smiled as well.
“Why am I not confident in someone who is half dead? Do you know why these women were lying here without being able to move at all? I didn't seal their acupoints.” Lotus Harvester smiled casually.
"What's? You mean... The smoke from the candle is poisonous?” Jiang Chen's face changed drastically.
“At least you're not a fool. You must die, must die, because it interferes with my sexual pleasure. Give your head to apologize!”
The Lotus Harvester suddenly moved and his figure dashed forward like a ghost or goblin.
It was said that the qinggong of the Lotus Harvester was extremely outstanding, and his movements did indeed live up to his reputation. The short blade in his hand turned into a flash of cold light as it slashed at Jiang Chen's neck.
Jiang Chen's body faltered and staggered, as if he could fall at any moment.
To the Lotus Harvester, this seemed like the struggle of its prey and the more wild it became.
"Dead!" The Lotus Harvester swung his sword and stabbed down.
The expected scene did not happen.
The short sword did not land on the neck. More precisely, the short sword cut through the empty air.
The wavering and staggered opponent suddenly disappeared where he stood.
“Ah, not good!” The reaction of the Lotus Harvester was swift when he suddenly turned his body, swinging his short sword into the space behind him.
Currently, a flash of cold light came from an unknown location. It seemed like he did not need to follow the rules of space as he directly darted down his throat.
Perfect angle, perfect punch.
Jiang Chen's Plated Feather Thrower Dagger was as thin as a feather as it melted into thin air. He split the space as it flew down the throat of the Lotus Harvester.
The Lotus Harvester gripped his throat with a death grip as his eyes were tapped hard like the eyes of a dead fish. He looked at Jiang Chen with a face full of doubt.
He never thought that he would perish in a place like this.
He doesn't understand. Why are the others fine after becoming victims of the poison in the smoke of the candle? Why would anyone else be able to find this place and easily understand its identity thoroughly?
However, the Lotus Harvester would not have the chance to find the answer to all of this in this lifetime.
How could he know that for a great alchemist who had occupied all fields like Jiang Chen in his past life, the poison method he used, the Lotus Harvester, was very powerful, similar to children's games.
Jiang Chen walked over and removed the head of the Lotus Harvester with a light blow from the blade. He wrapped it in a cloth bag at his waist in a smooth motion and turned the Lotus Harvester's head inside.
He took out the Lotus Harvester short sword as well, and searched for some other objects from the Lotus Harvester's body.
According to the mission requirements, the head of the Lotus Harvester was required to be inspected after killing the Lotus Harvester, and he also needed to obtain some kind of token from the Lotus Harvester. This short sword was naturally a kind of mark.
Jiang Chen rolled all the random objects on the Lotus Harvester's body into a cloth bag, and hung it on his waist with a flowing motion.
Walking to the front of the large bed, the seven women of the Northern Sect all stared wide-eyed. Their expressions were awkward and full of desire to be saved.
Jiang Chen had seen many women in his past life, and naturally would not lose his composure in the scene with naked bodies lying everywhere. His gaze swept across all the women, Jiang Chen stuffed the pill into Wen Ziqi's mouth.
"Slow."
Wen Ziqi's clear eyes flickered. There were still traces of tears hanging on her long lashes, but she swallowed the pill obediently.
This pill is an antidote to substances that can numb the nerves.
Jiang Chen had fully prepared this basic equipment the last time he visited the Healing Hall.
The pills produced by the Hall of Healing were certainly no ordinary product.
Shortly after Wen Ziqi took the pill, her hands and feet were able to move again. He struggled to sit down, and subconsciously his hands moved to put on his clothes.
Except, his pill had just come into effect and he did not have enough power in his hands. With a shake of his hand, the robe slipped off and finally revealed, in detail, the splendor of spring on his chest.
A pair of adorable jade peaks like pigeons fell right into Jiang Chen's sight.
What a beautiful view. Jiang Chen's heart was also slightly jolted as he turned around and did not stare continuously.
Wen Ziqi's graceful face was already flushed to the back of her ears at this moment. It was fortunate that Jiang Chen had turned his body around so he did not continue wallowing in awkwardness.
He hurriedly wrapped himself in his clothes and said in a low voice, "It's okay now."
Jiang Chen turned around and placed a bottle of pills in front of Wen Ziqi. “Give this to your master and your sister. You have been a victim of the Lotus Harvester scheme. It is a great fortune in the midst of unintentional circumstances that you are not stained.”
“Dia...he is a Lotus Harvester?” Wen Ziqi's face turned pale with fear when she heard the famous name of the Lotus Harvester. His heart was pounding with fear.
Madame Jade was the first to recover her movement ability after taking the pill.
He had been touched by the Lotus Harvester before and the radiance of intimacy had not completely disappeared from his face. There was still a trace of fading lust in and out in her charming eyes.
“Who is the name of the young hero? Little girl here thanks for saving my life.” Madame Jade's tone was still young and chuckling, stark in contrast to her firm and ice-cold attitude before.
Jiang Chen's mind turned bright. Judging from this tone, he knew that the Lotus Harvester might have used some methods on Madame Jade, and his desire had not been lost.
He smiled wryly. “I am a nobody, my name is not worth mentioning. Since you are fine now, I will go.”
Madame Jade let out a low sigh and spoke bitterly, “Young hero, you have seen all that can be seen from both old and young from the Northern Sect of Argus Star Palace. He really is someone who likes to cheat. If you leave just like that, I've become an old woman and therefore fear nothing. But who will prove that these girls are innocent in the future?”
Jiang Chen rubbed his nose. “I think this is a bit excessive?”
Madame Jade smiled gently and sweetly, “Who has just been blown away by my chest and the area between my legs?”
Jiang Chen felt extremely depressed and sad. Admittedly, his eyes were fixed on Madame Jade's body for the last few seconds. That was because her young lady body was the most special, most plump.
But it wasn't too much as he said. Fascinated by herl, what was that?
“Mistress, even though I am young, I know the strict rules between men and women. I'm really not going to say half a word about what happened today after I left. If I break my words, may I die because of the ten thousand arrows that pierced my heart.”
“You... you don't have to swear blood like that.” Wen Ziqi's face reddened again as she hurriedly spoke, then added another sentence. “We all believe in you, you are an honest and high moral man.”
Wen Ziqi thought of the awkward scene earlier. The sight of his chest was not originally displayed, but his own hands had failed and let his hands see through thoroughly.
At the thought of this scene, Wen Ziqi felt uncontrollable embarrassment.
Jiang Chen nodded his head lightly and took a deep breath. He knew that it was not advisable to stay for long in this place. If she lasted any longer, and Madam Jade tried to seduce her once in a while, she might fail to maintain her position.
After all, a colorful scene filled with naked bodies, jade, and emitting fragrances like this, was not a sight that any man could easily maintain.
Seeing that Jiang Chen could again have a clear and bright heart within a short period of time and walk outwards, Madam Jade also personally admired him. How could an ordinary young man be able to control himself in this kind of situation?
“Young hero, I may not have enough face as an old woman, but may I ask your honorable name on behalf of my pitiful disciple?”
Madam Jade was an intelligent person and knew that Jiang Chen was at least being nice to her student Wen Ziqi, considering that he had given her the antidote first.
Jiang Chen's body came to a slight halt and he replied weakly, “I am Jiang Chen from the Jiang Han territory, here to execute the Lotus Harvester on royal orders. Everyone, we'll meet again someday!”
He disappeared from where he stood with the tip of his toe, like a wild goose flying towards the magical world, after he spoke.
