Chapter 1286: 1286
Just a minute ago, Jiang Chen did a risky thing . He entered the dangerous area without any protection . He had made the right decision . He figured out that he must merge with wind without reserve to pass the test and get the Void Divine Wind . For this reason, his law of wind entered the second level . His Embryonic Supreme Will got the early form .

Although his state remained the same, his fighting power was greatly enhanced . Jiang Chen not only managed to stay there for 15 minutes, he stayed there for more than 20 minutes . Therefore, Hong Yue did not say anything . She left with the Armor Association in silence .
“By the way, are we currently outside the safe area?” Jiang Chen threw the Liu brothers a glance as he spoke . They were at high altitudes, which was certainly not under the governance of the safe area .
The two brothers reacted fast as soon as they heard him . They escaped as fast as they could . If they had looked back, they would have seen Jiang Chen laughing disdainfully, with no intention to attack them at all .
The other people who had been looking on as this whole incident took place looked shocked . Gazing at the man called Jiang Chen in front of them, they were certainly impressed by him .
“You’ve gained a lot, haven’t you?” Coming up to Jiang Chen, Yi Ya asked him in a low voice .
“You knew there would be the Void Divine Wind?” Jiang Chen asked out of curiosity .
“Not until now . ” Yi Ya was struck dumb . Then, showing an envious face, she said, “The Heavenly Wind Domain is a place used to subject people to an ordeal . You have the Saint Aura . You certainly were the best person to enter there . ”
“You turned out to put me at risk . ” Jiang Chen kept a straight face .
“It was not like that . You could have chosen not to take the risk, couldn’t you?” Yi Ya was smiling . Her bright eyes were full of kindness .
Nodding slightly, Jiang Chen agreed with her .

“Swordsmen mainly rely on the laws of wind and metal, wind in most cases, because it corresponds to the nature of sword . Some swordsmen who turn to novel ways will choose metal, for example, me,” Yi Ya went on .
Jiang Chen looked over . He knew she had not finished speaking .
“That being said, no one can achieve purity . Swordsmen who turn to wind absolutely have the property of metal as well, and vice versa . ” She was right . Jiang Chen’s conception of metal was neither too strong nor too weak, but he could create metal thunder all the same . “But for things such as some sword realms, they need the combination of the two . However, we don’t have the time to study the other one,” said Yi Ya .
“Miss Yi Ya, just tell me what you want to say,” Jiang Chen said with a small smile .
“Call me Yi Ya . Don’t treat me as a total stranger,” Yi Ya said . “The best solution is that two people with great achievements in wind and metal respectively impart what they’ve gained to each other without reserve . ” (In this way, they would not need to spend so much time in studying and practicing, because both wind and metal were related to sword . )
“That’s fine,” Jiang Chen agreed immediately . However, he did not agree just to improve his swordsmanship . What he really wanted to improve was the metal thunder . Anyone who had ever used the metal thunder once would be intrigued by its destructive power . Jiang Chen was not an exception .
“Deal, then . ” Yi Ya beamed even more .
Then Jiang Chen, Wan Renlong, and Yi Ya returned to the safe area .
The three thought the incident was over, but they soon detected something was wrong in the safe area .
The grand formation deployed in the safe area was about to work . The members of the Armor Association were standing on the highest buildings in the city . So was Hong Yue . She did not look good .

“Hold on a minute . ” Yi Ya had a hunch that something was wrong as well . She came up to the roof where Hong Yue was first . “Elder Sister Hong Yue?” She found that Hong Yue was winking at her when she was about to ask her what had happened .
Yi Ya could not interpret the wink wrong . Hong Yue was telling her to stay out of this .
Then an energy as firm as a mountain arose, making everyone pale .
“Lord of the city!”
Those who had gone into the air to look realized the lord of the city had returned . It looked as if he was going to meddle in what had been over .
“Yi Ya, you have nothing to do with the whole thing . If you meddle as his friend, you won’t be welcome in the Third Zone . ” A majestic and impressive male voice rang out . Next, a handsome man in black armor appeared .
Jiang Chen looked over involuntarily . He had imagined the lord of the city would be muscular and domineering, but, different from that, this lord of the city looked like a wise man .
“Lord, what you are doing is forbidding others to air any opinions,” said Yi Ya .
The lord of the city curled his lip . His look became colder . “Looks like you won’t back out of this . ”
He lifted his head to look toward Jiang Chen, who was still in the air, before Yi Ya could say anything . He said coldly, “What? You don’t even dare confront me face to face? You need a woman to defend you?”

His unreasonable anger confused people . They guessed maybe Jiang Chen had offended him before .
“The lord of the city is called Shi Lezhi . He isn’t an unreasonable person . Did you offend him somewhere before?” Yi Ya asked him secretly through holy awareness .
“He isn’t always so annoying?” Jiang Chen smiled . He did not know the lord, but if the latter wanted to pick a fight with him, no matter for what reason, he would not show any mercy either .
“I violated the rules because I beat some people up, but I passed the ordeal . However, Lord you are still giving me a hard time here . Who on earth is the one that ignores the rules of the Third Zone?” said Jiang Chen .
Many people in the city did not see Jiang Chen go through the ordeal with their own eyes . Only hundreds of people were up there to look on . However, they did not say anything for the fear of the lord of the city .
“You are quite eloquent . You know how dangerous it is in the Heavenly Wind Domain . A Martial Emperor in the preliminary stage like you could pass?” A cold smile pulled at the corners of Shi Lezhi’s mouth . He said, “According to my subordinates, the whole process of you going through the Heavenly Wind Domain was quite suspicious . It’s hard for us not to doubt it . ”
“Lord, please show your evidence . You are doubtful about me for no reason, and you want me to prove my innocence?” said Jiang Chen .
“First of all, you stayed there for 24 minutes . Why was that? You only needed to stay there for 15 minutes to pass the ordeal!”
“Second, no one could see you during the entire process . Maybe you found some loophole in the Heavenly Wind Domain and hid there throughout these 24 minutes . ” Shi Lezhi put forward two arguments .
Seeing the two going head-to-head, the crowd in the city went into an uproar . Everyone participated in the heated discussion . Some of them supported Jiang Chen, while others did not think the lord of the city had done anything wrong .
“So, Lord, what are you going to do?” Jiang Chen asked the key question .
“To maintain the rule of the Third Zone and everyone’s safety, I will make you take your responsibility . You will be punished . You will be kept behind bars for a month!” said Shi Lezhi .
“That’s unfair!” Yi Ya could not help but protest . Then looking toward Hong Yue next to her, she said anxiously, “You were there . You know better than anyone else . ”
Hong Yue looked away because of her guilty conscience . She did not say anything .
“Jiang Chen, I got it . That Xia Kemeng was related to him . ” Wan Renlong suddenly noticed that the lord of the city, Shi Lezhi, was wearing a ring on his right hand . There was a gem on the ring, whose color was completely the same as the light that flew away after Xia Kemeng’s death .
Jiang Chen was struck dumb . He did not know the names of the four people Wan Renlong had killed yet .
“No matter what, I’ll knock him down,” said Jiang Chen .
