The Brilliant Fighting Master

The mine wasn’t far away from the Vermillion Bird City. The four groups arrived at dusk.

They were all practicing, so they didn’t need to stop and rest. Although it was growing dark, day or night was all the same in the mine.

It was a big mine. Pits could be seen everywhere.

The groups were led by the four people who had made it out alive. They were led into one of the pits.

According to Wu Fan, there was still a long way to go to reach the passage, so Deagle decided to take advantage of this long trip to please Wen Xin, but she didn’t care the least bit.

Jiang Chen noticed each group was leaving marks as they were advancing.

This reminded him that even though they were with Deagle’s group, the three of them weren’t actually with them and didn’t have their own map.

They wouldn’t even know how to leave the pit without a guide, let alone that mysterious passage.

The marks left by the disciples of the Isle of Sky were a special pigment only identifiable by holy awareness. They left them on the walls along the way.

Anyone with a holy awareness can see the marks. Why are they doing this?

Jiang Chen was puzzled. But after observing, he understood why.

It turned out the marks left would disappear in a short while, and a disciple of the Isle of Sky was drawing the route map quickly before they were gone.

It was easy to make mistakes if one only relied on their eyes in this dark pit.

Jiang Chen had pen and ink kept in his mustardseed ring, so he took them out secretly and started to draw the map as well on a cloth torn from his outerwear.

His holy awareness could pierce the darkness, so he didn’t have to refer to the marks left on the walls, but they were so eye-catching that it was impossible for him to pretend he didn’t see them, so he preferred to refer to them than ignore them.

In addition, the passage was deep in the pit. The four groups had already been walking for an hour. He needed to save energy whenever he could.

“Even if we want to leave the team and go back, we won’t be able to find the way,” Wen Xin said in a low voice.

Meng Hao had the same concern, but he was worrying that if the pit collapsed, he could be trapped and die there.

“Princess, don’t worry. Stay with us. We can leave here even with our eyes closed,” Deagle smiled.

“How far away are we from the passage?” Wen Xin ignored him. She looked over to the youngster whose name was Wu Fan.

“Wait a second.” Wu Fan wasn’t sure. He went to the other three and discussed with them for a while. At the same time, the four groups stopped for a brief rest.

At that moment, a female disciple of the Isle of Sky came towards Deagle.

Her approach set alarm bells ringing among those from the Grand Qi State.

But when she got close enough, some of the men became absolutely distracted by her beauty. She must have been ranked on the Beauty List.

“That’s Chu Luo, a key disciple of the Isle of Sky,” someone recognized her.

Chu Luo didn’t pay any attention to those from the Grand Qi State. Instead, she walked up to Jiang Chen and extended her hand to him.

“Give me that,” her voice sounded very cold.

Jiang Chen was surprised. He laid his pen aside.

This scene attracted some attention. When others were looking towards Jiang Chen, they found three beauties beside him, Chu Luo, Wen Xin and the sexy Dorchid.

The men of the Gang of Knife and Sword let out a laugh.

“Miss Chu, is there anything wrong?” Deagle asked.

Jiang Chen was Wen Xin’s attendant and Win Xin was with them. Of course he had to ask about it.

Chu Luo pointed at Jiang Chen and explained the reason why she was here. “This guy is using his holy awareness to refer to the marks left by my team to draw his own map.” Many people set their eyes on Jiang Chen instantly.

Chu Luo suddenly attacked him. She tried to grab the cloth in Jiang Chen’s hand.

To her surprise, Jiang Chen dodged her hand.

“Miss Chu, I’m drawing the route map. After all, we are underneath the ground and I don’t want to be trapped here. But can you prove I am referring to your marks?” Jiang Chen said.

“Bastard.” Chu Luo didn’t expect that her grab would fail. She looked at him in surprise and said, “I’ve detected your holy awareness lingering on the marks!”

“That’s interesting. My holy awareness is working. I guess it won’t be excessive if it sees something glittering and takes some time to observe. After all, what if those things could endanger our lives?”

This sounded a lame argument. And it was.

But it was also true that she couldn’t prove he had referred to their marks to draw the map.

It was certainly impossible to disallow the others to draw their maps just because the Isle of Sky had left some marks.

“Shame on you!” Chu Luo understood what Jiang Chen meant. She was irritated.

Jiang Chen didn’t feel guilty at all. He had been referring to the marks because it was more convenient, but that didn’t mean he wasn’t able to draw the map by himself.

Besides, it did no harm to either of them. If the marks had disappeared due to Jiang Chen’s reference, and as a result the Isle of Sky hadn’t been able to draw their map, he certainly wouldn’t have done it.

But this Chu Luo was making a mountain out of a molehill. She had even required him to hand over the map. It was a mean act.

However, distracted by her beauty, no one thought she had done anything wrong.

“It’s only a map. Give it to her and everyone will be satisfied.” Deagle didn’t think it a big deal.

“No way.” Wen Xin had been worrying about how to leave the pit. Of course she wouldn’t allow Jiang Chen to hand it over.

“Miss Chu, let me ask you one thing. Do you own this pit?” Wen Xin said.

“No.”

“Well, then everyone has the right to draw their own map. We’re advancing together. It makes no sense that no one is allowed to use his holy awareness before your marks disappear,” Wen Xin said.

Since Wen Xin was as pretty as Chu Luo, the others also thought her arguments made sense.

“But he was drawing the map by referring to my marks,” Chu Luo said.

Wen Xin rolled her eyes. This sounded like a childish argument to her. She said, “Are you sure? And your proof is that your marks have been detected by his holy awareness? So others shouldn’t even be curious about your marks and take a simple look?

“That being said, if Miss Chu insists we’ve taken advantage of you, we can give you the map. However, in that case, we’ll go back to the starting point and start over again, so that we can draw our own map,” Wen Xin said.

It was a smart move, since the other groups would in no way agree to go back, and if the team of the Grand Qi State didn’t stay with them, they wouldn’t have Wu Fan with them.

Chu Luo pulled a long face. She sized Wen Xin up and kept her silence.

“I believe Miss Chu Luo,” Gao Chenyi interfered suddenly. He walked over, radiant. He stopped beside Chu Luo and looked at Jiang Chen and Wen Xin with a smile on his face.

“Jiang Chen and Wen Xin, one is a senior disciple of the Natural Law School, and the other is a junior disciple,” he identified who they were.

“They’re disciples of the Natural Law School?!”

“Is that man also a senior disciple?”

The disciples of the top ten sects and schools burst into uproar.

“Jiang Chen from the Southwind Ridge of the Hundred Thousand Mountains, you’ve been rising rapidly recently. However, like an overnight millionaire, your deep-rooted bad habits are never gone. You snooped on another’s route map and refused to admit it. You’ve brought shame on the Natural Law School!”
