Hearing Jiang Jichen’s words, Yee Youmeng and Hua Xiaoling, who were about to give chase, both stopped in their tracks.

They hadn’t had their fill of killing yet!

After all, Hua Xiaoling and Tang Ni had only ever been the ones hunted down and bullied. This was the first time they, the weaker side, had managed to fight back against a stronger foe, forcing them to flee after killing half their number.

For both Hua Xiaoling and Tang Ni, this was something they would have never dared to imagine.

In fact, even Jiang Jichen hadn’t expected Hua Xiaoling and Tang Ni to be so talented when it came to fighting.

’Looks like these women are all violent maniacs. I’ll have to be more careful from now on!’

Jiang Jichen thought to himself.

The outcome of this battle had also exceeded Jiang Jichen’s expectations.

If it had just been him and Yee Youmeng, they might not have won this fight.

Just now, both Hua Xiaoling and Tang Ni had played a crucial role.

Hua Xiaoling walked over, saw that Jiang Jichen was covered in blood, and asked with concern, "You’re injured! Quick, sit down and let me take a look!"

Tang Ni also produced a Healing Elixir and was about to feed it to Jiang Jichen.

At the same time, she said, "Oh, Little Chen, you can’t move with those injuries. Let your big sister feed you!"

"Don’t! You can’t just take a Healing Elixir right away. We need to check his condition first! Sister Tang, you’re not needed here. Why don’t you go rest and recover your Spiritual Power!"

Hua Xiaoling said, immediately pulling Jiang Jichen behind her.

Being pulled so roughly by Hua Xiaoling tugged at the wounds all over Jiang Jichen’s body, and he sucked in a sharp breath of cold air from the sudden pain.

’Without a doubt, that damned woman did it on purpose!’

Jiang Jichen was about to say that his injuries would heal if he just circulated his Cultivation Technique for a bit.

But before he could speak, Tang Ni had already flashed behind Hua Xiaoling to face him. "I have plenty of Spiritual Power and I’m in perfect health, so I don’t need to rest. You, on the other hand, Little Sister Hua, just recovered from a serious injury. You’re the one who needs to rest. I’ll take care of Little Chen."

As she spoke, she forcefully pulled Jiang Jichen behind her.

Jiang Jichen winced in pain again, sucking in another sharp breath.

’This woman is vicious!’ he thought. ’She’s definitely doing it on purpose too!’

"Sister Tang, no need to worry about me. I, Hua Xiaoling, have an extraordinary bloodline and an astonishing physique. Right now, I feel fierce enough to kill several Spirit Tigers! Since you’re the elder sister, you should let your little sister handle tasks like this. Please, go and get some rest!"

Hua Xiaoling was just as sharp-tongued, her words beautifully crafted and impossible to fault.

"That’s not right, Little Sister Hua. As the..."

"Nonsense, Sister. Taking care of you is my..."

"..."

..."

The two women went back and forth, their words sweet and polite, betraying no hint of animosity.

But their quarrel was agony for the injured Jiang Jichen, who was being pulled back and forth between them. While their words were free of hostility, their hands were waging a war of their own.

’Great. I’ve become the battlefield for two women.’

Fortunately, Jiang Jichen was tough enough. Even while being yanked back and forth, he was still able to circulate the Undying Scripture. Against all odds, he managed to use its Undying Power to heal his body right in the middle of it all.

’Now I finally see how terrifying two jealous women can be!’

’I guess being lucky with the ladies isn’t all it’s cracked up to be!’

’Then again, having two beautiful, exceptional women fighting over me can only prove one thing: I’m just too amazing. Haha...’

At a time like this, all Jiang Jichen could do was adopt a positive, optimistic mindset to console himself.

Nearby, Yee Youmeng hugged her large machete, watching them with a faint, cold smile. Every so often, she’d just say, "Heh..."

’Heh my ass! Damn you, Youmeng, for just watching me suffer!’

Jiang Jichen cursed her inwardly before he was forced to speak up to stop the two women. "Ladies, I’m completely healed! You can..."

"Healed?"

The two women, who had been bickering in hushed tones, both stopped at his words and looked at him with suspicion.

They saw that Jiang Jichen was indeed full of energy and vitality. The minor wounds on his body were completely gone; he was in perfect condition!

"Tch! He was just faking his injuries to get our sympathy!"

"Let’s ignore him and go rest over there!"

"Little Sister Hua, your Purple Whip is so beautiful! You could wear it as a belt."

"Sister Tang, your hairpin is so delicate! It suits you perfectly!"

...

In an instant, the two women were acting like the closest of sisters, walking off to one side to rest together.

And just like that, Jiang Jichen was ignored, becoming a complete nobody left all alone.

’A woman’s heart is a needle at the bottom of the ocean!’

’I don’t get it. It’s terrifying!’

Jiang Jichen sighed and started gathering the Storage Bags from the ground himself. As for the corpses of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, he piled them together, smashed them into a bloody mist with a single palm strike, and had the Blood Cloth absorb it all.

The bodies hadn’t been dead for long, but more than half of their Essence Qi had already dissipated. Still, the blood mist from the four Foundation Establishment Cultivator corpses was enough to finally let the Blood Cloth fully recover, making it usable once more.

After taking care of everything, Jiang Jichen walked over to Yee Youmeng. "Little Youu, what were you ’heh’-ing about earlier?"

"Heh!"

Hearing his question, Yee Youmeng gave a cool reply and then ignored him, continuing to sit cross-legged and circulate her technique to restore her Spiritual Power.

’What a character!’

Jiang Jichen was left speechless. He also walked to one side, sat cross-legged, and began to cultivate, making every second count.

About two double-hours later, the Small Floating Island suddenly trembled. A mysterious power descended, seemingly trying to expel them.

"Time’s up. Let’s head to the Great Floating Island!"

Jiang Jichen said, opening his eyes.

He then took the lead, stepping onto the giant iron chain that led to the Great Floating Island.

This suspended path of giant chains was one-way; you could only move forward. People on the Great Floating Island were unable to cross back over to here.

Otherwise, the members of the Seven Great Families and Three Major Sects would have charged over long ago while Jiang Jichen was meditating for two double-hours.

Jiang Jichen had taken this into account, which was why he’d waited until the time limit before leaving. He didn’t want to confront the Seven Great Families and Three Major Sects any sooner than necessary.

Below the giant iron chain, clouds and mist swirled, resembling an ethereal Illusion Realm.

No dangerous zones had appeared on the first level of the Treasure Tower Space, but it was said that the subsequent levels contained perilous areas where a Trainee could fall at any moment.

Jiang Jichen took the lead, with Hua Xiaoling and Tang Ni in the middle, and Yee Youmeng bringing up the rear.

The hundred-thousand-meter distance was quickly crossed. But before Jiang Jichen could even set foot on the Great Floating Island, he saw a crowd of people standing at the end of the chain.

They were led by Ling Dong, the second senior brother of the Flowing Cloud Sect, Nangong Jinjie, Cang Lengshan, Wei Xiaolang, and Guo Qishan, among others. They had clearly been waiting for a long time.

"Quite the welcoming party. But you... can’t stop me!"

Looking at these people, Jiang Jichen flashed a brilliant smile that showed off his snow-white teeth.
