Chapter 691: Magical Abilities
Butler Zhao said, "It is said that if it can be used, it can change a person's talents and qualifications."
Jiang Chen opened his mouth in astonishment. This bead actually had such magical powers.
“However, the power of the spirit pearl cannot be exerted casually. It must be combined with a matching technique.” Butler Zhao added.
"So that's how it is." Jiang Chen understood and felt a hint of disappointment in his heart.
If he had a martial arts method, he would be invincible, so why would he need to practice?
"I wonder what's so special about this bead?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
"Legend has it that the value of this bead is comparable to that of a holy artifact," said Butler Zhao.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen was shocked.
This bead is so precious, no wonder they are willing to spend such a huge price to buy it.
"Uncle Zhao, you have something to talk to me about, right?" Jiang Chen asked.
"Yes, someone delivered a letter today."
Butler Zhao took out a piece of letter paper from his arms and handed it to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen opened the envelope and took out the letter inside.
"Um?"
Looking at the handwriting on the letter, Jiang Chen looked puzzled, not recognizing it.
"The letter said that I had to take the Bronze Gate test, otherwise he would kill me."
Butler Zhao said, "I would like to ask Brother Jiang what you think?"
"I've never seen any bronze door." Jiang Chen said distressedly.
"Brother Jiang, this is not like you. This is related to your future destiny."
Butler Zhao had a serious expression on his face. He felt that Jiang Chen was very smart and would not make such a low-level mistake.
"I also hope to be able to enter the bronze gate." Jiang Chen said.
"In that case, why refuse?"
Butler Zhao asked curiously, this is the best time, once missed, it will be extremely difficult to get in again.
"I'll keep this letter for you. When you've thought it over, give me your reply."
Butler Zhao said that he couldn't force others.
"Um."
Jiang Chen nodded. He indeed needed some time to think.
"By the way, Uncle Zhao, what ability did you say this spiritual bead has?"
He asked curiously again, this spiritual bead was the result of his blessing.
"Rumor has it that the spirit pearl has the talent and qualifications to change a person."
Butler Zhao said: "Your talent was originally mediocre, but because of this spirit bead, it has been directly improved several times."
After hearing this, Jiang Chen remained silent.
He looked at the spirit pearl carefully. Apart from its bright color, it was no different from an ordinary stone.
"Uncle Zhao, do you know the origin of the spirit pearl?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
"It is said that this spiritual pearl was dug out from a certain mountain range and was obtained by the Zhao family not long ago." said Butler Zhao.
Hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly realized that this spirit bead should have been found in the ruins.
"To be honest, the Zhao family is preparing to train a group of talents and let them venture into the Bronze Gate." Butler Zhao continued.
"Zhao family?"
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned, and the image of Zhao Qing, the eldest daughter of the Zhao family, appeared in his mind.
"Yes." Butler Zhao nodded.
"I wonder if Miss Zhao will participate?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.
"She hasn't decided yet." Butler Zhao said with a smile.
"The Zhao family is one of the eight major families in Nanling. With so many outstanding talents, they definitely have no shortage of resources," Jiang Chen analyzed.
In his memory, Zhao Qing was a talented girl who reached the foundation-building stage at a young age.
The genius cultivated by the Zhao family should also be the best.
"I came here this time to tell you that no matter what arrangements the Zhao family has, you must participate, otherwise it will be a waste of such a great opportunity."
"Uncle Zhao, I understand."
Jiang Chen nodded.
This time, the Jiang family’s crisis has been resolved, but there will be bigger crises in the future.
The Jiang family must become stronger, otherwise they will become fish on the chopping board sooner or later.
"It's a good idea that you have. I will help you." Butler Zhao said with relief.
After he left, Jiang Chen sat alone in the room with a frown on his face.
Suddenly, he raised his head and looked out the window.
A moment later, a group of masked men quietly lurked outside the door and opened it a crack.
They seemed to be hesitant, not daring to rush into the room, fearing that Jiang Chen would escape.
"Who sent you?"
Jiang Chen said in a cold voice.
As soon as the words fell, the people outside the door took a few steps back.
They were dressed in black and had black scarves on their faces, so their appearances could not be identified at all, and even their breath was concealed.
"It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. I can catch you anyway."
Jiang Chen shook his head, stood up and walked towards the door, opened the door, reached out and grabbed the masked man.
There were a total of six masked men, who were subdued by Jiang Chen and had no power to resist.
"Who sent you?"
Jiang Chen interrogated, he always felt that this group of people had a conspiracy.
"I advise you to surrender immediately, otherwise..."
A masked man threatened fiercely, but was met with a cold light in Jiang Chen's eyes.
Click.
Jiang Chen mercilessly broke the man's neck.
The remaining five masked men were trembling with fear; Jiang Chen's brutality was beyond their expectations.
"Who are you? Who ordered you to assassinate me?"
Jiang Chen stepped on the chest of another masked man.
"We are also following orders."
The masked man trembled and said in fear: "Don't kill me, please don't kill me."
"Who sent you?"
Jiang Chen continued to press the issue, his patience almost worn out.
"I have no idea."
The masked man said with a sad face.
Jiang Chen frowned, not believing that the masked man didn't know who was behind the scenes.
"You really don't know?"
Seeing that the masked man still didn't say anything, Jiang Chen's eyes flashed coldly.
"Jiang Chen, please let us go. We don't know anything."
The masked men cried and said that they were just following orders and did not dare to reveal the identity of the mastermind behind the scenes.
"It seems you really don't know."
Jiang Chen sighed, unable to bear the pain of killing him.
"roll."
The masked man immediately breathed a sigh of relief and ran away at a very fast speed.
"This spiritual bead belongs to you. I accept it." Jiang Chen muttered to himself.
After saying this, he put the spirit bead away.
....
Early in the morning, everyone in the Jiang Mansion got up and was busy.
Jiang Chen also woke up. He didn't sleep well last night and had a nightmare.
"Jiang Chen, why haven't you changed yet?"
Just as Jiang Chen finished washing up, a maid walked into the room and called out.
Jiang Chen quickly wiped the water stains off his face and went to the living room.
"Where's your father?"
He looked around and asked the maid.
"The master is in the hall."
The maid brought Jiang Chen to the hall.
"father!"
As soon as Jiang Chen stepped into the hall, he saw Jiang Yuanshan.
"You finally woke up. How are you?" Jiang Yuanshan asked anxiously.
Jiang Chen smiled. He was in very good health now.
"The Zhao family is going to send someone to enter the bronze gate and let you take the test."
Jiang Yuanshan recounted the whole story.
As one of the eight major families in Nanling, the Zhao family selects a group of outstanding talents every three years to venture into the Bronze Gate.
Every Bronze Gate is under the charge of the Zhao family; this is their responsibility.
Every month, one hundred people will be selected to pass the Bronze Gate Trial.
