Killing Spree! The Reborn Villain Crushes the Prestigious Clans! - Chapter 36:

Chapter 36: I Will Settle Every Score!

Following the sound, Jiang Wang saw a group of people in strange clothing charging over. Though there was no trace of spiritual Qi on them, Jiang Wang instantly noticed that their physical bodies were incredibly strong. A few among them even had a faint radiance glowing from their bodies.

One must know that Jiang Wang had relied on the Chaos Demonic Physique and that blood-colored ginseng-like divine medicine to refine his body to such strength that it could emit radiant light. His body had been tempered to the extreme. At his current level, conventional body-tempering methods could no longer bring any progress.

That was why he planned to use the Thunder Pool Sacred Liquid and the Tribulation Crossing Lightning Pill to strengthen his body and cultivate a Lightning Tribulation Treasured Physique. Only then could his body break through its limits and advance further.

However, this group of unremarkable people also had such formidable physiques.

Jiang Wang grew curious—how did they temper their bodies?

“Xiao Zheng!” A young man in the crowd called out, and the Fiery Mystic Tiger Serpent obediently came to stand behind him.

The group then looked at Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan with guarded eyes, full of vigilance.

Seeing this, the two immediately realized that this ancient beast must have been raised by these natives.

“Who are you? Why are you here? And why did you attack Xiao Zheng?” The young man questioned, radiating a glow from his body. Among the group, he likely possessed the strongest physique.

Facing his questioning, Jiang Wang said indifferently, “That beast attacked us first. We had no choice but to kill it. Was I supposed to stand still and let it kill me?”

The young man was momentarily stunned, speechless. Based on Jiang Wang’s words, it was indeed Xiao Zheng who initiated the fight.

Though the young man was straightforward in nature, he wasn’t unreasonable. Once he confirmed it was their mistake, he sincerely apologized, saying, “It was my oversight. I didn’t keep Xiao Zheng in check. I apologize to both of you.”

He spoke sincerely. As he glanced at the charred craters around and then at the spotless state of Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan, he couldn’t help but feel a chill.

They had raised Xiao Zheng for years and were very clear on its terrifying strength. An ancient beast was far more fearsome than an ancient ferocious beast in terms of bloodline. Once matured, such a beast could dominate a region.

A beast with ancient bloodline could fight ten ancient ferocious beasts of the same realm alone.

In this chaotic region, raising Xiao Zheng into a dominant force meant better protection for their people.

Within a 500-kilometer radius, there was no enemy that could force Xiao Zheng to go all out.

But today, Xiao Zheng had clearly done just that.

When they saw Xiao Zheng gathering that terrifying power earlier, they sensed something was wrong and rushed over immediately.

Now that they had sincerely apologized, Shen Ruyan glanced at Jiang Wang. He remained silent, his thoughts unknown.

Seeing that, Shen Ruyan also stood quietly behind him without saying a word.

The young man’s heart sank. Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan’s reaction made it clear—this wouldn’t be settled easily.

If a fight really broke out, they had the numbers and wouldn’t fear Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan. But judging from their clothes, it was clear these two were geniuses from the outside world. Offending them could bring backlash from powerful outsiders.

If things could be resolved peacefully, that would be for the best.

With that in mind, the young man stepped forward and said, “Brother, I am Meng Man. Xiao Zheng offended the two of you. Would you be willing to visit our tribe? I’d like to properly make amends.”

Shen Ruyan’s first instinct was to refuse. Their current relationship was clearly not friendly. An invitation now might carry hidden motives. Going with them would be risky.

Meng Man himself knew the invitation might be declined and was already thinking of how to persuade them.

Unexpectedly, after a brief thought, Jiang Wang agreed, “Very well. We’ll follow you to your tribe. Let this matter end here.”

Shen Ruyan was stunned and turned to look at Jiang Wang with eyes full of confusion, clearly questioning why he agreed.

Meng Man responded quickly, laughing heartily, “Brother, may I know your name?”

“Jiang Wang.”

“Brother Jiang, please follow me to the tribe. I guarantee you’ll both be satisfied!”

With that, he waved his hand and led the Meng tribe members to turn back. Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan followed behind.

They intentionally kept to the back, maintaining some distance from the Meng tribe members.

Once they were far enough that their voices couldn’t be heard, Shen Ruyan asked, “Why did you agree to follow them to their tribe? If they have ill intent, it could be a big problem.”

Hearing her question, Jiang Wang replied, “Look at them. They have no spiritual Qi at all, yet their bodies are so powerful. I want to know how they cultivated like that.”

Shen Ruyan looked again at the group. Sure enough, their physiques radiated with a faint glow.

She didn’t speak further. After a brief pause, she said, “If they really have ulterior motives…”

Before she could finish, Jiang Wang interrupted her, “If that’s the case, then I’ll settle every score with them one by one.”

His tone was calm, yet carried a powerful force.

Shen Ruyan stared at his back in a daze. She had no doubt that he meant every word.

After all, during the fight with the Fiery Mystic Tiger Serpent, he hadn’t even used his full strength. Let alone his Ancient Dragon Art, he still had the powerful divine abilities granted by his Immortal Bone.

For some reason, hearing his words made Shen Ruyan feel completely at ease. She nodded and said no more.

Following the Meng tribe for an unknown amount of time, they eventually reached an ancient forest. Only then did a small village come into view.

There were a few elders and children in the village. When they saw Meng Man, they cheered with excitement. But upon seeing Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan, their excitement quickly faded. They looked at the two with curiosity.

“Brother Mang, who are they?” a child boldly asked.

It was hard not to notice Jiang Wang and Shen Ruyan. Both wore white robes and had ethereal appearances like immortals descending to the mortal realm. In contrast, most of the men in the Meng tribe were bare-chested, with muscular bodies, darker skin, and covered in scars from their daily battles in this chaotic region.

Their arrival immediately stirred curiosity, and villagers of all ages gathered to look.

Seeing this, Meng Man looked a bit helpless. He walked up to Jiang Wang and whispered, “Brother Jiang, please don’t be angry. The villagers mean no harm.”

Jiang Wang nodded slightly. He could naturally tell that these people were simply curious and bore no ill intentions. There was no reason to be upset.
