He had broken through to the Half-step Human Emperor Realm.
Jiang Chen was elated. He had completed the urgent mission and knew he would surely be rewarded upon his return to Blood Jade City.
It was the icing on the cake!
Jiang Chen rushed back to Blood Jade City at top speed. Just as he reached the gates, he saw Zhuge Tao already waiting there.
He seemed to be waiting specifically for him. He approached with a broad smile. "Centurion Jiang, you're finally back! Congratulations!"
"Hm?"
Jiang Chen was taken aback. He raised an eyebrow and said, "Ah, Centurion Zhuge. What's the happy occasion?"
He didn't have a very good impression of Zhuge Tao.
'This man is like a venomous snake,' he thought, 'lying in wait in the shadows, ready to strike at the first opportunity. I feel like he could bite me at any moment!'
