Chapter 456: Chapter 455, Leaving the Canyon_1
Xia asked, "So what do we do now? With Van Lundin dead, will the Stuart Family come after us?"
Jiang Ling shook his head. "No, after his death, the Stuart Family certainly won’t come. Now, we can only rely on the four of us to flee the Difiled God Continent. It’s going to be very, very difficult to escape this place."
Jiang Ling’s face was filled with despair. He was a Wanderer, and if one were to categorize by profession, he belonged to the Melee Class. What a Melee Class fears most is a Long-ranged Class. With his capability alone, he had no way to evade pursuit from the Difiled God Continent.
Jiang Ling looked at Jiang Chen. "Jiang Chen, what’s your plan?"
Jiang Chen said, "Let’s wait and see for now."
Jiang Chen stood up, walked over to Van Lundin, picked up Simmons’s Divine Sword, and silently placed it into his backpack.
When teammates sacrifice to the sky, their magic power is boundless,
he mused.
Too bad only one piece of equipment dropped. If the entire set had dropped, that would have been fantastic.
Jiang Ling took a deep look but said nothing. Then he said, "After I go back, I will return to the Wanderer World."
Jiang Chen smiled. "As a Wanderer, you can go anywhere you want."
"You’ll need to be careful in the future," Jiang Ling advised.
"I will be," Jiang Chen replied.
Xia listened, utterly puzzled and unable to grasp what was being discussed.
Jiang Chen asked, "Do you know Bai Yun?"
Jiang Ling shook his head. "I do not. He is the Sword God—mysterious and unpredictable. Only his legend circulates in the Wanderer World. He is also the only one who, with a mortal body, dared to challenge the Divine. Though he lost in the end."
"The Divine are very powerful," Jiang Chen stated.
Jiang Ling replied, his voice hushed, "I know. I’ve even seen a Demigod from the Stuart Family, and even the Divine themselves. It’s an indescribable power they possess, capable of destroying heavens and earth. A Ninth-Stage Master simply has no chance against the Divine, yet Bai Yun did it."
Fear was the only thing in Jiang Ling’s eyes—fear of the Divine.
Jiang Chen now understood why Jiang Ling had chosen to ally with the Stuart Family.
It’s because he has witnessed the Divine and knows their power. That’s why he submitted.
Jiang Ling said, "But don’t worry, the Divine won’t come down. They are in the Divine Domain, which is a whole other world."
Jiang Ling’s meaning was clear: even if Jiang Chen killed someone from the Stuart Family, they wouldn’t necessarily know it was him. And even if they did, they wouldn’t send the Divine after him. They couldn’t come down.
Jiang Chen said, "Let’s rest for a few Timings. Tomorrow, the four of us will break out, flee from here, and return to the Continent of All-Gods."
Jiang Ling nodded. This was indeed a good idea.
「Meanwhile, within the Stuart Family.」
A group of people was discussing how to rescue Van Lundin when they suddenly discovered that Van Lundin’s name had turned gray, signifying he was truly dead.
"How could this happen? We had already reached an agreement with the Difiled God Continent. How did Van Lundin die?"
"Damn it, these Heroes of the Difiled God Continent have no sense of honor!"
"Who killed Van Lundin?"
"Is that even a question? They’re on the Difiled God Continent, so naturally, it was done by a Hero from the Difiled God Camp."
"Now that he’s dead, there’s no need to release Reesley. A Reincarnation of the God has died. We might as well kill Reesley and cultivate a new powerful individual instead."
"That’s right. The benefits of the Divine Crystal Stone are still significant."
The Stuart Family didn’t care about Van Lundin’s death. The Stuart Family wasn’t just Van Lundin; they had many other masters and many more up-and-coming talents. Although Van Lundin was a Reincarnation of the God, he was dead.
As for revenge? In the Continent of All-Gods, countless people died every day, and the dead were of no further use. Revenge held no significant meaning for such a massive clan.
After resting for six Timings, the group left the canyon.
The news of Van Lundin’s death spread shortly afterward. With Van Lundin dead, there was no longer any need for the general pursuit. Van Lundin was a Reincarnation of the God. The purpose of tracking him had been to kill him and extract the Divine Crystal Body. Now that he was dead, most Heroes returned to the cities.
The four of them could finally catch their breath. However, a number of people were still searching for them, albeit very few.
Jiang Ling said, "With Van Lundin dead, it seems we have a chance to return to the Continent of All-Gods."
Xia nodded. "There’s indeed a chance. The number of people pursuing us has decreased significantly. There used to be hundreds of thousands, but now only a few hundred Corrupted Heroes are searching."
"Let’s go. We are still far from the Continent of All-Gods. It will take at least three months to completely leave the Difiled God Continent and return," Jiang Chen urged.
The four traveled together, preparing to leave Mediya Luna. Along the way, they encountered many Corrupted Heroes. However, these were all Ordinary Heroes who were killed by Jiang Chen before they could react, becoming experience points.
Jiang Chen’s strength had increased quite a bit by now. Each of his Four Dimensions had increased by 4,000 points. Although not as monstrous as Angelina’s buffs made him, it was enough. Moreover, the Divine Crystal Body could be used indefinitely. Simply put, the Divine Crystal Body was Divine Power fed back to Heroes by the God’s Seal, allowing mortals to possess a trace of divine strength.
Wobor had not given up. He had sent his subordinates to circle in the sky. Although Van Lundin was dead, Wobor had no idea how. If Van Lundin had been killed by Wobor’s own people, a great battle would surely have ensued, and they would have known about it.
Van Lundin was a Reincarnation of the God; even in death, his body contained a Divine Crystal. Wobor, like Van Lundin, was also a Reincarnation of the God. His body contained a trace of divine strength. Although only a trace, it was a power no Ordinary Hero could contend with.
Wobor continued to search for any trace of Jiang Chen and his companions. He wanted to obtain the Divine Crystal Body.
When Jiang Chen and his companions emerged from Mediya Luna, they looked up. The Black Dragon was still circling in the sky. The four hid in the woods, closely observing the sky.
Xia asked, "How about we wait until they leave before we make our move?"
Jiang Ling shook his head. "I’m afraid that plan won’t work. They won’t leave. Even if they did, they’d still have people circling up there, looking for our tracks."
"So, what do we do?" Xia asked.
Jiang Chen looked up. "Don’t worry. We’ll just fight our way through."
Jiang Ling nodded. "You’re right. Your strength has increased significantly. The Corrupted Heroes are no match for you."
Angelina buffed Jiang Chen:
[Constitution +7,000, Strength +7,000, Spirit +7,000, Agility +60······]
[Physical Attack Power +8,000, Magic Attack Power +8,000····]
[Physical Defense Power +8,000, Magical defense power +8,000·····]
[Abnormal Attribute Resistance +1,000·····]
Feeling Angelina’s BUFF, Jiang Chen noted that with her Constitution upgraded, the buff values had also changed, adding significant amounts to his Four Dimensions, Offensive Power, and Defensive Power.
Jiang Ling glanced at Jiang Chen and sighed. "What a pity. I can’t benefit from a Priest’s buff."
