“Impossible, it must be a coincidence!”
Huang Rong shook her head, immediately dismissing her own thoughts. She didn't believe that Jiang Chen, after only practicing the Falling Petal Divine Sword Palm for a dozen days, could surpass her.
Thinking of this, Huang Rong put away her underestimation and once again unleashed the Falling Petal Divine Sword Palm, attacking Jiang Chen. Her offense became even more fierce.
Jiang Chen did not dare to be careless and raised his palm to block.
Although Jiang Chen had not practiced the Falling Petal Divine Sword Palm for long, through the perfection of his Martial Dao Emperor Eyes, the technique was already completely familiar to him. Moreover, the countermeasures for every move were also reflected in his mind.
Therefore, Jiang Chen was able to anticipate and respond to every attack from Huang Rong!
This made Huang Rong feel extremely frustrated!
Every attack was countered by Jiang Chen's moves, giving her the feeling of punching cotton, with no place to use her strength.
Looking at Huang Rong's puffed-up appearance, Jiang Chen smiled lightly and said, “Madam, shall we continue?”
“Continue, why not?”
With a fierce competitive spirit, Huang Rong, even without using internal energy, how could she be willing to be defeated by Jiang Chen?
Huang Rong's sudden attack also caught Jiang Chen off guard, causing him to subconsciously strike out with a palm.
This palm not only deflected Huang Rong's attack but also struck her directly in the chest.
Huang Rong's expression changed, she quickly retreated, but her feet slipped, and she fell backward.
“Madam, be careful!”
Seeing this, Jiang Chen reached out and forcefully pulled Huang Rong into his arms.
Both lost their balance and fell to the ground.
“Ding! Congratulations, Master, on completing the system task and receiving the system reward: One drop of Stone Talisman Spirit Liquid!” The system prompt echoed in Jiang Chen's ears.
At this moment, with soft jade in his arms and a fragrant scent filling his nostrils, Jiang Chen directly ignored the system prompt.
Feeling the strong masculine scent emanating from Jiang Chen, Huang Rong's face turned crimson. She quickly struggled free from Jiang Chen's embrace and stood up.
“Madam…”
Although Jiang Chen felt reluctant in his heart, he dared not continue to hold Huang Rong.
“Don't tell anyone about what happened today, or I won't spare you!”
Huang Rong looked around, finding no one around, she felt relieved. She left a sentence and hurriedly departed.
Watching Huang Rong's departing figure, a smile also appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
He didn't expect that this system task was completed unintentionally!
…
Huang Rong returned to her room, her face still flushed, and her heart beating non-stop.
“That guy…” Huang Rong couldn't help but scold him.
Huang Rong knew that she couldn't blame Jiang Chen. It was because he was saving her that he accidentally took liberties with her.
For some reason, Huang Rong did not feel angry at all, instead, there was a faint, indescribable feeling.
…
Outside of Xiangyang City!
Jiang Chen sat cross-legged beneath a towering tree, the Five Elements Yin-Yang Art circulating within his body, and the aura around him was steadily rising.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, an extremely powerful aura erupted from Jiang Chen's body, sweeping away the surrounding fallen leaves and gravel.
Grandmaster Realm Mid-Stage!
“Whew!”
Jiang Chen opened his eyes and exhaled a slightly turbid breath of air, a smile also appearing on his face.
Completing the second system task, Jiang Chen received a drop of Stone Talisman Spirit Liquid!
Stone Talisman Spirit Liquid: Originating from the Xuanhuan Martial Movement world, it is condensed from the essence of heaven and earth gathered by the Ancestral Talisman. Consuming it has the extraordinary effect of strengthening tendons, washing the marrow, tempering the body, and strengthening the bones!
With the help of this drop of Stone Talisman Spirit Liquid, Jiang Chen successfully broke through from Grandmaster Realm Initial Stage to Grandmaster Realm Mid-Stage, and he was only half a step away from Grandmaster Realm Late Stage!
“If only there were more Stone Talisman Spirit Liquid!” Jiang Chen exclaimed, feeling the surge of power within his body.
One drop of Stone Talisman Spirit Liquid had caused such a huge increase in his strength. If there were more, wouldn't he be able to break through to the Grandmaster Realm?
“Ding! System Task Issued: Kiss Huang Rong!” The system prompt suddenly echoed in his ears.
Hearing the system task, Jiang Chen was completely speechless!
This system really knows how to cause trouble!
It either doesn't issue system tasks or it issues them continuously. Moreover, the difficulty of the tasks is increasing!
At this time, a chaotic sound suddenly came from the forest.
Jiang Chen looked over and saw two young beggars running towards him, with a group of officials in pursuit behind them.
“The Great Sui Officials?”
Jiang Chen recognized at a glance that the armor worn by this group of officials was not that of the Great Song Dynasty, but that of the Great Sui Dynasty.
“Could these two young beggars be the Great Tang Twin Dragons?”
A thought suddenly popped into Jiang Chen's mind.
If he could subdue the Great Tang Twin Dragons, it would be of great help in completing the system's ultimate mission!
Before, Jiang Chen had no thoughts about the system's ultimate mission!
But in these past two weeks, he had gone from Acquired Realm Mid-Stage to Grandmaster Realm Mid-Stage.
At this rate, he would become a Heaven Man Realm, or even a Land Immortal Realm warrior within two years. At that time, it wouldn't be impossible to unify the Divine Martial Continent.
But even if he did become a Land Immortal Realm warrior, wouldn't he need some capable subordinates to unify the Divine Martial Continent?
