Chapter 1249: A Death in Battle and War Spoils

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ye Xue had been looking for Jiang Chen, but it was difficult to find someone in the Blood Sea Realm. However, it was fortunate that she could limit her search to the first and second areas. Today, Ye Xue hadn’t managed to find Jiang Chen, but she had found his swords. Those swords were always with him, and Ye Xue couldn’t help but be worried because of this.

“Aren’t Spirits like you depending mostly upon your great influence? I must inform you clearly that we are from the Righteous Guard Association.” Upon witnessing that Ye Xue wanted to attack them, the youth, who had spoken rudely before, started to threaten.

Upon hearing the last three words, the Spirits next to Ye Xue started hesitating.

“Ye Xue, are those really the swords of the person you are looking for?” The voice of Ye Xue’s companion rang out near her ears.

“That is right!” Ye Xue’s long hair was fluttering in the wind, and snowflakes appeared around her. She must find out what had happened to Jiang Chen.

“Regardless of whether you are from the Righteous Guard Association or not, it isn’t justifiable for you to snatch other people’s possessions.”

The leader of this group of Spirits wasn’t Ye Xue, but another feminine man. He was an Ice Spirit and had his clan’s special traits—flawless snow-white skin and white hair. The man’s expression was resolute, and he swept those people with his eyes.

The man and woman who held the Heavenly Fault Sword and the Red Cloud Sword exchanged a glance, and they communicated with their Holy Awareness.

“Fine, we don’t admit that what you have said is true. Even if those two swords belong to someone else, if we have killed him and taken those two swords, can’t they be considered war spoils?”

The woman had higher authority, and she spoke slowly and calmly.

Upon hearing her speech, Ye Xue’s gaze became sharper, while the white-haired man next to her nodded.

The Blood Sea Realm had always been cruel, and it wasn’t just the Blood Clan who killed humans, humans would also kill other humans.

“You should then stop saying over and over again that we shouldn’t have taken those objects. If you want to fight us, then you can just use revenge as an excuse,” the woman spoke quickly.

Swoosh!

Ye Xue pulled out her ice-like sword, and the temperature for 100 miles around dropped sharply.

“Don’t be impulsive!” The Spirits had lost all their fighting spirit due to the woman’s speech. The Spirits were on the weaker side, and they had just pestered them for the two Doctrine Swords.If both sides’ reinforcements appeared, the Spirits would get the worst out of it.

“You can’t snatch those two swords out of his hand without suffering any harm.” Ye Xue wasn’t willing to drop this matter.

“Hey! Woman, what is wrong with you? Do you think that you can mess around with people just like you want because you are beautiful?” The sword thieves man unsheathed the Red Cloud Sword and waved it around complacently. He said, “We killed that guy. So, what? What can you do about it?”

“Thousand! Mile! Ice! Seal!” Ye Xue was quite blunt, and she immediately used an ultimate technique. Only a short period had passed since Jiang Chen had seen Ye Xue. Yet, her Realm Leave had already reached the Martial Emperor Realm, and Jiang Chen couldn’t help but recall the theories about Spirits’ quick cultivation speeds.

“Supreme Venerable-grade Spirit Heart?” The sword thieves team members were surprised by this. But there were still some of them who treated this disdainfully. However, when the chill got near them, they realized that they had all underestimated this woman.

“Enough!” A shout echoed suddenly, along with wind and rain, which scattered the chilly air. “It was a Water Spirit!

They didn’t need to see the person who had arrived. They could discern his status through the wind and rain, which was filled with spiritual energy. It was a spirit that was obstructing a spirit. It was really beyond everyone’s expectations—even the sword thieves didn’t expect it.

Ye Xue’s attack was obstructed, which made her energy and blood churn, and she almost ended up injuring herself. At this moment, several people with powerful auras came over.

Both the Spirit Clan and the sword thieves witnessed their people among them. There were five: two humans, two Spirits, and one Ancient Race member. The most eye-catching were a woman and a man, from the Spirit Clan and the Human Clan. The one who had attacked and obstructed Ye Xue was the Spirit Clan woman. She had a tall stature, a noble demeanor, and was dressed well.

“Brother Xuan Yi!” The sword thieves looked at the Human Clan man.

“Ruo Han, You Mu, what is going on?” The man called Xuan Yi questioned the male and female sword thieves. This man was tall, handsome, refined, and elegant. As he walked around with the Water Spirit Clan woman, they seemed like an ideal couple.

“We have two war spoils, yet the people from the Spirit Clan are asking for them.” As the woman, Ruo Han, described the matter, it didn’t seem like there weren’t any issues.

“You from the Ice Spirit Clan don’t understand the rules at all, do you?” The Water Spirit Clan woman started reprimanding them with displeasure. She looked at Ye Xue and said, “Don’t assume that you can mess around like you want just because you are beautiful, and you will be protected by people.”

“Princess Yun Yu, this matter…” The white-haired man wanted to explain it.

“Fine, if you really start fighting, you won’t be a match for them, and you will still have to ask for people’s help, won’t you?” The princess didn’t listen to them, and she spoke proudly, “A person who can’t protect even his own swords deserves what occurs to him.”

Ye Xue sneered and spoke coldly, “I want to know what happened. Where is the swords’ owner?”

“I have said that they are battle spoils. So, what do you think was his outcome?” The sword thieves would obviously not admit that Jiang Chen was still alive, and that they had only stolen the swords stealthily.

“Impossible!” Ye Xue replied without considering this matter.

“I have said that it’s true! Can’t you understand what I have said?”

Princess Yun Yu had a prejudice against Ye Xue, and she immediately started chiding her.

“Princess Yun Yu, don’t be impulsive, and don’t damage our good relationship,” Xuan Yi said. “Those are my junior brother and sister’s war spoils, and if you want to take them back, you must use other objects to exchange for them.”

“Young master Xuan Yi, our Spirit Clan wouldn’t do such a disgraceful thing. War spoils can only be taken by depending upon one’s power.” Princess Yun Yu cast a glance at Ye Xue and said, “Moreover, those are just two Doctrine Swords, which aren’t rare goods.”

The expressions of Ye Xue and her companions became unsightly. Their own side’s person wouldn’t help them and speak for them. Instead, she even insulted them.

…..

“You are saying war spoils over and over again, and even I have almost assumed that I died in battle.” At this moment, Jiang Chen descended from the sky and landed next to Ye Xue.

Ye Xue, who had worn a nervous expression, heaved a sigh of relief. She was aware that Jiang Chen couldn’t have suffered harm. But seeing him with her own eyes set her mind at ease.

An embarrassed expression appeared on the faces of the sword thieves. They were obviously able to recognize Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen chuckled and waved his left hand in the air. The Red Cloud Sword in You Mu’s hands immediately went back to Jiang Chen. Now the sword thieves were even more embarrassed,especially You Mu.

“There is still another one.”

The Heavenly Fault Sword didn’t have a Sword Soul, and Jiang Chen couldn’t summon it back. He could only extend his hand toward the woman called Ruo Han and say, “I have to warn you, when I was refused last time when I extended my hand and asked for my own stuff, the outcome of the guy who refused me was quite miserable.” It was a pity that the people present here weren’t aware of what had occurred between him and the Divine Recluse Clan in the castle. Or they probably just didn’t recognize him.

“You’re just a Star Venerable. I had almost assumed that it was a Martial Emperor who had arrived,” You Mu shouted. “Did you come here to throw your life away?”

Jiang Chen didn’t care about him, and he ignored him thoroughly. He only looked at Ruo Han.

“Did you assume that you could take this back this sword just because it was previously yours?” Ruo Han asked.

“Can’t I ask for something stolen from me?” Jiang Chen said.

The word stolen irritated the sword thieves.
