Chapter 678: It's Pitch Black

Night.

The night was dark, and Xiao Hei came to Jiang Chen.

"Master." He bowed his head respectfully, "It's all ready." ā€

Jiang Chen nodded lightly, and then quietly left the residence with Xiao Hei, their target was Qinjia Village.

The two of them were in good shape, shuttling quickly through the night, and soon came to the edge of the village.

Qinjia Village was immersed in silence, and only the occasional barking of dogs broke the quiet night.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Hei hid in a dense grass, carefully observing the situation in the village.

Their arrival did not attract the attention of the villagers, which also made Jiang Chen breathe a sigh of relief.

However, just as they were about to go deeper into the village to find out, a discordant voice rang out: "Who is it? ā€

As the voice fell, several figures flashed out of the shadows, encircling them.

Jiang Chen secretly said that it was not good, they were still discovered.

He fixed his eyes and saw that the few people who came up around him were dressed in black and wore strange masks on their faces, obviously prepared.

One of them sneered: "I can't imagine that there are still people who dare to break into Qinjia Village at night, I am really impatient!" ā€

Jiang Chen knew that the other party was not good, so he quickly adjusted his breathing and prepared to deal with the next battle.

Xiao Hei also followed, standing loyally by his side, ready to strike at any moment.

Seeing this, the men in black pounced on Jiang Chen and Xiao Hei one after another.

Jiang Chen skillfully dodged the opponent's attack while looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

His internal strength is extremely strong, and every shot makes the opponent feel tremendous pressure.

One of the men in black had good strength, and he was able to make a few moves with Jiang Chen.

His hands turned into sharp claws and attacked Jiang Chen's vital point.

Jiang Chen's eyes lit up, and he saw that this person was not simple.

He used his internal strength to condense into an invisible force to defuse the opponent's attack invisibly.

After several encounters, Jiang Chen gradually gained the upper hand.

He slammed his palm, knocking a man in black out of the way.

Seeing this, the other men in black took a few steps back in horror.

"Who are you? Why is it here? Jiang Chen asked coldly.

"Hehe, it doesn't hurt to tell you." One of the men in black sneered, "We are the disciples of the Nanyang wizards, so today I will let you see the power of our Nanyang witchcraft!" ā€

As he spoke, he said something in his mouth, and then with a wave of his hands, an invisible force struck towards Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen felt the strong internal strength contained in this force, he didn't dare to be careless, and quickly used the internal strength to defend.

However, this invisible force was extremely weird, and it was able to penetrate Jiang Chen's internal strength defense and act directly on his body.

Jiang Chen felt a pang of discomfort, but he didn't give up resisting.

He used his internal strength to force this invisible force out of his body, and at the same time attacked the man in black.

The men in black were shocked when they saw this, they didn't expect Jiang Chen to be able to resist their attacks.

They took a few steps back, ready to flee the scene.

However, Jiang Chen didn't give them this chance, he used his internal strength to quickly catch up with one of the men in black and subdue him to the ground.

"Say! What exactly are you here for? And how much do you know about drug control? Jiang Chen asked coldly.

"I—I'll say......," the man in black said in a trembling voice, "we're here to find a medicinal ingredient called 'Soul Eater'...... This drug is able to control a person's mind...... We, we're just doing what we're told......"

"Soul Eater?" Jiang Chen frowned, "This medicine really exists?" Where did you hear about this drug? ā€

"Yes, our master told us...... "The man in black said in a trembling voice, "he said that this drug will allow us to control the entire renovation of the old city......"

Jiang Chen's heart was shocked when he heard this, he didn't expect the purpose of these black-clothed people to be this.

He took a deep breath and stunned the man in black to the ground, then picked up Hei and continued walking deeper into the village.

After some searching, they finally found the location of the villagers who were controlled by the drugs.

It was a hidden basement, and the entrance was hidden by a thick layer of foliage and weeds.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Hei cautiously entered the basement, only to see that it was extremely dim, and a pungent smell filled the air.

The drug-controlled villagers sat on the ground with expressionless faces, their eyes blank, as if they had lost their souls.

Jiang Chen's heart ached, he couldn't imagine what kind of torture these innocent villagers had suffered in this dark basement.

He quickly used his internal strength to examine the bodies of the villagers, and found that they actually had the medicinal ingredients of Soul Eater Scattered in their bodies.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps at the door of the basement.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Hei glanced at each other and quickly hid in the shadows.

I saw a man dressed in black walk in, holding a bottle of potion in his hand, apparently to feed the villagers.

Jiang Chen and Xiao Hei held their breath and quietly waited for the opportunity.

When the man in black walked up to a villager and was about to feed him medicine, Jiang Chen suddenly made a move and grabbed his wrist.

"Ahh Who are you? The man in black was taken aback by Jiang Chen's actions, and he looked at Jiang Chen in horror and asked.

"I'm the one who came to take your life!" Jiang Chen said coldly and used his internal strength to subdue the man in black to the ground, suppressing the man in black with his absolute internal strength, leaving him powerless to fight back.

The man in black said in a trembling voice: "This master, I have eyes that don't know Mount Tai, and I have offended you, so please raise your noble hand and let us go." ā€

Jiang Chen looked at him coldly and didn't speak, but the powerful coercion made the man in black feel difficult to breathe, as if an invisible mountain was pressing on his chest.

"I ...... I was just doing what I was told, and I didn't know how powerful you were. The man in black continued, fine beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, "I'm willing to say everything, just ask you to let me live." ā€

Jiang Chen frowned slightly, he didn't want to kill innocents indiscriminately, but this person obviously knew a lot of secrets.

He took a deep breath and said slowly, "Okay, as long as you tell the truth, I can consider letting you go." ā€

The man in black was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly told everything he knew.

Jiang Chen was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "I can not kill you, but you must take me to meet that Nanyang wizard." ā€

The man in black nodded his head in agreement as if he had been pardoned.

He didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and took Jiang Chen and Xiao Hei to a remote hut in the village.

"He lives here...... man in black said, pointing to the hut.

Jiang Chen nodded, motioned for Xiao Hei to look at the man in black, and then pushed the door and walked in.

It was pitch black inside the room, and I couldn't see anything clearly.
