Divine War Pill Emperor

"Trying to escape? Not a chance."

"Every single one of you is going to die."

An endless, vicious light flashed in Master Qin’s eyes.

How could he possibly let the person who killed his son get away?

With victory in his grasp, he certainly wouldn’t back down now.

He yelled to a Martial King, "Carry me."

SWOOSH!

A Martial King Expert appeared before Master Qin, took hold of him, and his figure blurred as he sped away.

"AHHHH..."

Endless screams rang out. The hundred-plus Martial Artist experts from the Treasure Elephant Pavilion couldn’t last long against the Eight Great Martial Kings.

In the end, their screams turned to silence as they fell one by one, lifeless.

Every last one was killed by the Martial King Experts.

Then, the Eight Great Martial Kings, carrying Master Qin, began their pursuit of Jiang Chen and the others. 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Their presence was overwhelming.

"Gods, they’re too powerful."

"This is the true strength our Alchemy Master Guild should possess."

"Damn it, we didn’t help Chairman Qin earlier. Once he kills Jiang Chen and the others, will he come after us?"

Everyone was utterly shaken to see Master Qin suddenly produce Eight Great Martial Kings.

They were especially thrilled to see the Eight Great Martial Kings defeat the Treasure Elephant Pavilion and now hunt down Murong Xiangming and her group.

No matter how you looked at it, their Alchemy Master Guild had won.

But then again, if Master Qin killed Jiang Chen and the others, he would surely settle old scores afterward. When that time came, he would naturally come looking for them.

Since they hadn’t helped Master Qin, they would all be in deep trouble when he came to settle the score.

Many of them were filled with regret.

"Damn it all! This is all because of that cursed Jiang Chen."

"If it weren’t for him, I definitely would have stepped up to help Chairman Qin."

Someone blamed Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen’s speech had convinced many people to distance themselves from Master Qin.

"Forget it, there’s no point thinking about it."

"Chairman Qin is sure to return victorious this time. Jiang Chen and the people from the Treasure Elephant Pavilion are all dead meat."

Now, the Eight Great Martial Kings gave them all the confidence they needed. Victory was certain.

No one believed that Jiang Chen and the others could survive under these circumstances.

In mid-air, Murong Xiangming carried Jiang Chen with one arm. He was acutely aware of their physical contact, especially her soft chest pressed tightly against his own.

They were face to face, and Jiang Chen’s breathing grew a little heavy.

Faced with a stunning beauty like Murong Xiangming, most men would find it hard to control themselves.

And Jiang Chen could only struggle to keep his composure.

Murong Xiangming, however, had an anxious expression, her mind completely elsewhere.

Far behind them, the Eight Great Martial Kings and Master Qin were in hot pursuit.

In mid-air, Master Tian Mu turned his head to Murong Xiangming. "Young Mistress, the Treasure Elephant Pavilion is no longer safe. We should flee Hanwu City."

"Once we’re out of Hanwu City, we can go to the Fire Sparrow Kingdom. There are people there who can help us."

"Once we’re there, we won’t have to fear Master Qin’s Eight Great Martial Kings."

In fact, the Treasure Elephant Pavilion had branches in every city.

Within the Fire Sparrow Kingdom, the most powerful branch of the Treasure Elephant Pavilion was in the Gambling City, the kingdom’s capital.

There were even experts there who surpassed the Martial King realm. So, as long as they could reach the Gambling City in the Fire Sparrow Kingdom, they would be saved.

Murong Xiangming nodded. "Alright, let’s leave Hanwu City at once."

They had no other choice but to leave Hanwu City.

As for why she had brought Jiang Chen along, Murong Xiangming felt she simply had to.

But Jiang Chen immediately objected.

"Wait a minute, are you kidding me?"

"The Gambling City? You must be crazy. We’ll never make it in time."

"The two of you are injured. There’s no way you can escape Master Qin’s pursuit."

He had to throw a bucket of cold water on their plan.

It was the truth. Both of them were injured. Although they had taken a Healing Elixir, such elixirs required time and rest to take full effect.

With Master Qin in hot pursuit, they had to keep fleeing for their lives.

There was no way their injuries could recover.

Their wounds would only get worse.

And the Gambling City, the capital of the Fire Sparrow Kingdom, was thousands of miles away. It wasn’t a journey they could make overnight.

Even if there were experts there, they couldn’t save them in time.

Murong Xiangming froze for a moment.

It seemed she understood this problem as well.

She looked down at Jiang Chen in her arms, and only then did it register that she was carrying a man.

A faint blush crept onto her cheeks.

But she couldn’t dwell on it now.

Shaking her head, she said, "There’s no other way. Hanwu City will likely fall to Master Qin soon. If we stay in Hanwu City, we’re just waiting to die."

Fleeing for their lives was a desperate measure.

Who would want to run? Even Murong Xiangming hadn’t planned to leave Hanwu City, even temporarily.

Besides, the Treasure Elephant Pavilion’s foundation was here. If they left, it would inevitably fall into the hands of the Alchemy Master Guild.

That would be a great humiliation.

But they had no other choice.

Master Tian Mu said as much. "Jiang Chen, your Jiang Family is likely in grave danger as well. Come with us to the Gambling City. We have experts there."

"When your Cultivation is strong enough, you can come back for revenge!"

He tried to persuade Jiang Chen with good intentions.

He really meant it for Jiang Chen’s own good.

The fact that Jiang Chen had stood firmly on their side this time had given Master Tian Mu a very favorable impression of him.

It had completely changed his opinion of Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

He said loudly, "This is ridiculous. You won’t have a chance to reach the Gambling City."

"Listen to me. Come with me to the Jiang Family."

What?

When Master Tian Mu and Murong Xiangming heard Jiang Chen say they should go to the Jiang Family,

they both thought he had lost his mind.

"Your Jiang Family can’t even protect itself! If we go there, we’ll surely die."

"Jiang Chen, trust me. No matter what, I will get you out of Hanwu City safely."

"Even if I die, I won’t let you die."

Murong Xiangming said suddenly.

Her tone was filled with a strange emotion.

Jiang Chen was stunned. He stared blankly at the beautiful Murong Xiangming, who was right in front of him.

Why would this woman suddenly say something like that?

They were practically strangers, having only met by chance. They didn’t have a deep connection.

Why would she be willing to sacrifice everything just to keep him alive?

"Why are you doing this for me?"

Jiang Chen looked at Murong Xiangming.

Murong Xiangming’s eyes were calm as she suddenly said, "Because you saved me."

"I’m just doing the same for you."

Jiang Chen shook his head, refusing to believe it.

"No, that’s not the real reason."

"Are you hiding something?"

He recalled that Murong Xiangming knew the Blood Butterfly Eighteen Transformations, a Cultivation Technique that belonged to his Orchid Fairy.

Yet here it was, being used by Murong Xiangming.

Something was very wrong with that.

But Murong Xiangming offered no further explanation.

"Believe it or not. You treated me one way, so I’m treating you the same."

"But we absolutely cannot go to the Jiang Family."

She knew that the Jiang Family’s strength was even less than their own Treasure Elephant Pavilion.

So naturally, she wouldn’t go there.

Jiang Chen grew exasperated. For now, he pushed aside the thoughts about Murong Xiangming’s secrets.

After all, they hadn’t been killed by Master Qin yet.

Not as long as they could make it to the Jiang Family.

Instead, he shouted, "You’re being foolish! I have my reasons for telling you to go to the Jiang Family!"

"Quick, to the Jiang Family! I have a trump card there. Once we get there, we can turn this defeat into a victory!"
