Murong Yuan couldn’t hold her temper any longer when she made it to a place with no people around. She flew into a rage and vented her anger.

The female disciples with her all stayed far away. They didn’t dare either approach her or speak.

“Could… Could Jianfei have been helping the b*tch secretly?”

It was possible. The disciples sent to sabotage Ying Wushuang’s practice were from the Sword Association, and Mo Jianfei was the president of the Sword Association.

That was the only way to explain what had happened that day.

“Damn it. Ying Wushuang, you asked for it! Don’t blame me!”

Murong Yuan had made up her mind. She was going to take revenge against Ying Wushuang.

The female disciples looked at each other. They knew Murong Yuan was going to do something extreme. With her ability, she would be able to do whatever she set her mind to.

They felt pity for Ying Wushuang.

Suddenly, the radiance of a sword appeared. It was Mo Jianfei.

Murong Yuan was surprised at his arrival. She made an unpleasant face and turned around.

“You can go,” said Mo Jianfei.

The four female disciples didn’t hesitate to leave.

“Don’t go. You don’t have to follow his orders.”

But Murong Yuan stopped them.

“Yuan…”

Mo Jianfei frowned. He wasn’t happy about her attitude.

“Why are you here? Shouldn’t you go see Ying Wushuang? Right. She got three outstandings today. Shouldn’t you go congratulate her? Or did you already know?” Murong Yuan kept sneering, speaking sarcastically.

“That’s what I came for,” said Mo Jianfei.

“Yeah?” Murong Yuan was wondering what he was going to say.

“I told you not to go too far, not to deprive her of all practice opportunities…”

What Mo Jianfei was saying was surprising. He wasn’t there to apologize, but to blame her.

“Mo Jianfei, what do you mean?!” Murong Yuan said coldly.

“Apprentice Sister Murong, we’d better go.”

The four women sensed something wrong. They did their best to stay out of the quarrel.

“Don’t. Stay here!” Murong Yuan ordered. They didn’t dare leave.

Mo Jianfei’s patience had been exhausted, too. He said, “What did you think I was here for? To apologize to you? Let me tell you one thing. Those you sent to cause her trouble have all been expelled from the Hero Palace.”

Murong Yuan was surprised, but she looked indifferent to it immediately and said sarcastically, “The b*tch got three outstandings, so she took it as a chance to complain?”

Mo Jianfei couldn’t help but shake his head at her response. He said helplessly, “Murong Yuan, you’ve been expelled from the Hero Palace, too.”

“What? That’s impossible!”

Murong Yuan didn’t believe him at all. She said emotionally, “She’s such a b*tch. She wants to drive me out of the Hero Palace?”

Mo Jianfei’s silence weakened her confidence. She became panicked and looked towards the other four women.

They were shaking their heads, too, as shocked as she was.

“It was decided just now. Jiang Chen built first-class practice equipment that caught the leader’s attention,” said Mo Jianfei.

“First-class practice equipment?” Murong Yuan said, puzzled.

“Exactly. The Soothing Lake and the Thousand-Yard-Long Waterfall of the Hero Palace are like toys in comparison to his equipment.”

“But why have I been expelled? They can simply buy his equipment. Why did they allow Jiang Chen to threaten them?” It dawned on Murong Yuan why Ying Wushuang had been able to achieve such a great performance. She was still reluctant to accept the results.

“Jiang Chen won’t sell. He won’t gift them to the Hero Palace, either, but he has agreed to lend them to the disciples here, except those of the Sword Association,” Mo Jianfei said seriously.

“His equipment is that great?”

“It’s that great. And he has absolute control of them. If others want to use them, they have to get his permission. Many people have already quit the Sword Association,” said Mo Jianfei.

Not until then did Murong Yuan realize how severe this affair was.

“So what? The Hero Palace wants to expel me? Impossible. I quit!” said Murong Yuan.

“You’ve caused such a big stir, and you want to walk away from it like this?” Mo Jianfei was very angry, although he always knew his fiancée wasn’t a very responsible person and only thought about herself.

“Hehe, Jiang Chen? He’s just a guy who came from an uneducated place. The things he built might be useful, but can he have them under his control forever? Even if the Hero Palace allows him to, I’ll ask my family to invite a master to replicate them.”

Mo Jianfei was thinking that by then, his Sword Association had disappeared, but he didn’t have another solution.

…

It wasn’t Jiang Chen’s concern that his things would be copied, because he didn’t think anyone could.

After Du Yue had slapped his own mouth swollen, Jiang Chen, the grand elders, and the leader had a serious meeting.

First, Jiang Chen gave back the Golden Dragon Card that the Hero Palace had given him.

The leader asked him what he wanted. Jiang Chen said he needed a powerful man of the venerable level to help him rescue his father when he returned to the Fire Field, but the leader declined tactfully. He said that the Hero Palace had won respect because they had never intervened in personal affairs.

At that point, the talk reached an impasse.

The leader said, “Jiang Chen, have you ever thought about why the Hero Palace is paying so much attention to the method to develop extraordinary meridians?”

“Why?” Jiang Chen didn’t know.

“It will make up for the weaknesses of the Reaching Heaven States. It’s very important. The whole continent will be mad for it, but the Hero Palace has never intended to gain great power through it.

“What the Hero Palace is going to do is gather enough groups to fight against the Evil Cloud Palace.”

Jiang Chen realized the leader was trying to convince him with a righteous cause.

He thought for a while and said with courage, “Leader, wealth and power are never separable.”

As soon as he had finished speaking, the grand elders around all paled, since what he had said was as striking as lightning.

“How dare you!” Shui Yuan shouted. He had anger in his eyes.

“Wait,” the leader stopped him, since Jiang Chen obviously hadn’t finished.

“I’m not a person that only does things only for my own benefit. I’m not ungrateful.”

He took a deep breath and said, “I just don’t like Grand Elder Snowbrow’s attitude. She made me feel like I had to do it this way and had taken advantage of the Hero Palace.

“And as for the righteous cause, I have my own way to deal with these issues. I don’t want others to restrain me with these matters.

“Sometimes I might refuse to do things I actually want to do because of my position.

“For example, I planned to give the method to develop extraordinary meridians to the Hero Palace for free. The request I just made is due to my responsibility as a son.

“I’ll try my best to pay back a small favor, but I don’t want others to think I have no etiquette simply because I’m from a humble family.”

Snowbrow and the other elders responsible for Jiang Chen’s expenses with the Golden Dragon Card were extremely embarrassed.

“Thanks to the Sacred Institute and the Hero Palace, I’ve made much progress in less than six months. I’ll share the method to develop the eight extraordinary meridians with the Hero Palace, but the techniques of the three pieces of practice equipment are different. However, I’ll allow the Hero Palace to use the equipment for free.

“I went against the Sword Association because it was a necessary countermeasure for me to take as a man.”

When he had finished, the grand elders and the leader didn’t know how to respond.

Jiang Chen’s understanding of the situation was beyond their expectations.

“I’ll give the method of the extraordinary meridians to the Hero Palace. As long as I’m a member of the Hero Palace, you can use my equipment for free.

“This is how I’ll pay you back.”

After Jiang Chen had left, the leader and the grand elders glanced at each other silently.

After a good while, Shui Yuan exclaimed, “Jiang Chen is such a unique man.”

Even he had said so, which shocked the other grand elders.

“We’ve been too picky about the quota of ten million. It led to a misunderstanding, and we even insulted him. It was my fault,” Snowbrow exclaimed. She lowered her head in shame.
