Chapter 566: Chapter 564: Don’t Be Afraid, Maiden

The Sinful Dragon Clan of the Mortal World!

Everyone was stunned by this declaration.

Everyone knew the Dragon Clan had been destroyed by the Heavenly Dao Realm long ago.

The survivors were branded as the Sinful Dragon Clan and exiled from the Six Paths Realm.

To be killed on sight!

To think that a member of the Sinful Dragon Clan had now appeared in the Six Paths Illusion Realm.

Still, it seemed wrong for three Holy Envoys to gang up on a single woman, regardless of the reason.

Evidently, the power the mysterious masked woman displayed made them feel threatened. They knew they had little chance of winning if they faced her alone.

And so, the three of them attacked at once!

Attacked simultaneously by the Three Saint Envoys, the mysterious masked woman was besieged on three sides and completely overwhelmed.

Her ethereal Yunshui aura was shattered in an instant.

To the onlookers, the mysterious masked woman was doomed. Her death seemed certain.

But just then, a figure abruptly appeared by her side.

It was Jiang Jichen. He used the profound Void Shadowless Technique to instantly teleport to the mysterious masked woman’s side.

"Young lady, don’t be afraid. I’ll protect you!"

Jiang Jichen’s clear voice boomed, echoing between heaven and earth.

At the same time, he pulled the mysterious masked woman along. First using Mountain River Shadow, he closed in on one of the Holy Envoys in an instant, stopping less than a meter away.

"You’re courting death!"

Seeing Jiang Jichen and the mysterious woman advance toward him instead of retreating, he unhesitatingly unleashed the ultimate killing blow he had gathered in his hand.

In his eyes, the hit was guaranteed.

And once his attack landed, his opponent would surely die.

Furthermore, in the eyes of every spectator, Jiang Jichen pulling the mysterious woman to within a meter of a Holy Envoy was a suicidal rush.

What’s more, the ultimate killing blows from the two Holy Envoys behind them were also about to land.

Caught in a three-pronged pincer attack, their situation was hopeless.

But just then, Jiang Jichen executed a Position Shifting technique, swapping places with one of the Holy Envoys and breaking out of their encirclement.

Normally, Position Shifting should have been impossible against such a powerful Holy Envoy.

But because he was so close and had unleashed the move so suddenly, it actually worked.

It was an incredible risk!

If it had failed, Jiang Jichen and the mysterious masked woman would have suffered the full brunt of the Three Saint Envoys’ ultimate killing blows.

BOOM!

The attacks that should have struck Jiang Jichen instead hit the Eighteenth Saint Envoy with whom he had swapped places.

Jiang Jichen and the mysterious masked woman were unharmed, while the Eighteenth Saint Envoy took the blow in their stead.

However, they were incredibly powerful, with lightning-fast reactions.

The two Holy Envoys managed to pull back some of the power from their attacks in time.

The Eighteenth Saint Envoy also swiftly activated his strongest defense.

SPURT!

But the force of the attack was still terrifying, and the Eighteenth Saint Envoy coughed up blood from his injuries.

In the end, he had been outplayed by Jiang Jichen.

"Don’t worry, young lady. As long as I’m here, no harm will come to you."

Jiang Jichen said with a brilliant smile.

"Alright. Let’s join forces and wipe them out completely."

The mysterious masked woman’s tone had changed as she spoke to Jiang Jichen.

But just then, the world suddenly trembled. The Purple Jade Map erupted with a dazzling, astonishing light, shot upward, and broke free from the power of the Sky Pit Vortex.

Then, the Purple Jade Map flew toward the edge of the Sky Pit.

It was heading directly for the mountain peak Jiang Jichen and his companions occupied.

In an instant, all eyes were on Little Gray, Youu, and Han Qing.

At the same time, everyone charged toward the peak Jiang Jichen’s group occupied, without a moment’s hesitation.

However, Jiang Jichen had already leaped off the peak; he was no longer on it.

What was even more baffling was that the Purple Jade Map, of all things, flew directly toward Han Qing.

At that moment, a multitude of powerful, astonishing, and terrifying auras locked onto Han Qing at once.

All arrogance vanished from Han Qing. His face turned deathly pale in an instant, and he trembled uncontrollably.

"S-stay away from me!"

Han Qing yelled as he turned and bolted.

But the Purple Jade Map kept chasing him.

This time, Han Qing felt an urge to cry but had no tears to shed.

Under normal circumstances, he would have been ecstatic to have such a supreme treasure chasing him.

But now, he was being targeted by a group of supremely powerful figures, any one of whose attacks was enough to kill him ten times over.

And if the Purple Jade Map were to land on him, all of their attacks would strike him simultaneously.

At that point, he feared he would be so utterly annihilated that not even dust would remain.

"Sirs! This has nothing to do with me! It’s chasing me on its own! Please, spare me!"

Han Qing shouted without stopping.

He was truly terrified this time.

Even if he poured all his strength into the Black Tortoise Pearl to activate the Black Tortoise Defense, he couldn’t block even one of those attacks.

And he was facing dozens of them.

And that wasn’t even counting the strongest Peak Masters, who had yet to make a move.

These were merely the attacks from the Peak Masters’ underlings.

Jiang Jichen hadn’t expected this situation either.

First, the Ancient Sword Scripture had fallen into Little Haas’s bizarre bowl, and now the Purple Jade Map was chasing Han Qing.

He didn’t know whether to call them incredibly lucky or hopelessly unlucky.

"Master Han, throw the Purple Jade Map to me!"

Jiang Jichen sent via voice transmission.

Seeing the Purple Jade Map appear, the Three Saint Envoys also halted their attack on Jiang Jichen and the mysterious masked woman.

Their gazes fixed on Han Qing instead.

Han Qing was truly terrified now.

Not only was a mob chasing him, but a group of Peak Masters and the Three Saint Envoys were now staring him down.

If these powerhouses truly attacked, there was no way he could survive.

Hearing Jiang Jichen’s voice transmission, Han Qing gritted his teeth, grabbed the Purple Jade Map, and threw it toward Jiang Jichen with all his strength.

WHOOSH!

The Purple Jade Map shot toward Jiang Jichen like a flash of lightning.

Without a moment’s hesitation, Han Qing leaped from the peak and fled for his life, not daring to look back.

Jiang Jichen reached out and caught the Purple Jade Map.

In that instant, an image appeared in Jiang Jichen’s mind.

It was the Supreme New Domain.

However, if he wanted to truly claim this land as his own, he would have to refine the Purple Jade Map into his body and merge with it. Only then could he truly possess the New Domain.

Jiang Jichen casually stored the Purple Jade Map in the Magical Artifact Space of his Poison-Devouring Pearl and declared loudly, "The Purple Jade Map is in this Sect Leader’s hands! Come and take it if you’ve got the guts!"

With that one sentence, he replaced Han Qing, becoming the target locked in everyone’s sights.

The difference was, Jiang Jichen floated calmly in the void, looking down on everyone with contempt.

"Jiang Jichen... he’s... he’s actually not running?"

"Is he crazy? He just put the Purple Jade Map away."

"Look at him. Does he really intend to fight everyone by himself? That’s impossible, isn’t it?"

...

The crowd stared, dumbfounded, thinking their eyes were playing tricks on them.

But then, Jiang Jichen’s voice rang out again. "Don’t be afraid, young lady. I’ll protect you. I can easily sweep away these small fry all by myself!"

Facing the strongest enemies in the world, his heroic spirit soared, his words shaking the very heavens.

Everyone in the Six Paths Illusion Realm suddenly realized they had never truly seen through Jiang Jichen.
