247: Fellow Daoist, save me! I'll give you a precious immortal crystal.

Seeing that the shifty-eyed Middle-aged Man and his companions had already blocked all escape routes.

The Green-robed girl's face was filled with despair.

She looked at Jiang Chen, who was calmly observing her, and said, "Fellow Daoist, I am a Great Emperor of the Azure Dragon Clan. If you save me, I am willing to give you an incredibly precious Immortal Crystal."

She was utterly helpless now and could only place her hopes on Jiang Chen and Liu Shu.

After all, with her Middle Stage Great Emperor cultivation, if she couldn't see through Jiang Chen and Liu Shu, it meant they were at least Late Stage Great Emperor figures.

As long as Jiang Chen and Liu Shu agreed to save her, the three of them joining forces would still be able to escape unharmed from her pursuers.

"What! You actually have an Immortal Crystal on you?"

Before Jiang Chen could speak, the shifty-eyed Middle-aged Man was utterly stunned.

The expressions of the other two were no better; all of them were shocked.

"One Immortal Crystal?"

Jiang Chen looked at the Green-robed girl with a hint of speechlessness.

This girl probably didn't know that Immortal Crystals were counted in the hundreds of millions to him, not as a single precious Immortal Crystal.

"That's right, Fellow Daoist, it's one Immortal Crystal."

"As long as I can leave here safely, I will give you an Immortal Crystal that even Peak Great Emperors dream of."

Seeing that Jiang Chen didn't speak, the Green-robed girl thought he was intimidated and quickly reiterated that the reward was an Immortal Crystal.

After all, there was no Peak Great Emperor who wouldn't be tempted by an Immortal Crystal. She was very confident in her offer.

Looking at the Green-robed girl's confident expression, Jiang Chen found it somewhat amusing.

He was about to speak and pour a bucket of cold water on her.

But the shifty-eyed Middle-aged Man next to him had already recovered and threatened them fiercely.

"Two Fellow Daoists, I advise you not to meddle in others' business. We are from the Beast Taming Sect of the Azure Depths Continent. This is a Dragon Clan member our Sect is pursuing. You shouldn't bring trouble upon yourselves."

The other two recovered, greedily swept their gaze over the Green-robed girl, and also threatened Jiang Chen.

"That's right, two Fellow Daoists, our Beast Taming Sect is a well-known power throughout the starry sky. As long as you leave, we can pretend nothing happened."

"Yes, yes, you'd best leave quickly, otherwise, when the experts of our Sect arrive, you won't have that chance."

After speaking, all three stared intently at Jiang Chen and Liu Shu, waiting for their reply before making a move.

Originally, they only wanted to capture the Green-robed girl to use her as a mount, but now that she possessed an Immortal Crystal, things were different.

One must know that Immortal Crystals were extremely rare. Even if it meant fighting Jiang Chen and Liu Shu to the death today, they had to seize the Green-robed girl and the Immortal Crystal.

"Heh heh, are you threatening me?"

Jiang Chen chuckled twice upon hearing this, then said to Liu Shu beside him, "Xiao Shu, what should we do when they threaten This Sect Master?"

If these people hadn't spoken, he might not have helped the Green-robed girl, but now, before he even said anything, these people were threatening him one after another.

Since that was the case, he could only send them on their way. After all, he hated being threatened the most.

"Hmph hmph!"

"Threatening Sect Master is a capital offense!!"

A flash of killing intent appeared in Liu Shu's eyes, and she instantly transformed into an afterimage, charging towards the shifty-eyed Middle-aged Man and his two companions.

"Ah ah ah!!"

Before the three could react, Liu Shu struck each of them with a single punch, blasting them into a bloody mist, leaving behind only three terrified screams.

"Hiss, this... it's over just like that?"

Seeing Liu Shu instantly kill the three Great Emperors who were pursuing her, the Green-robed girl was utterly dumbfounded.

These three were all Late Stage Great Emperors.

Liu Shu could actually kill them with one punch each; this was too terrifying. She had never seen such a formidable expert.

"Sect Master, Xiao Shu has taken care of them."

After eliminating the three, Liu Shu happily ran to Jiang Chen's side to take credit.

"Mm, not bad. Those Immortal Crystals weren't absorbed for nothing." Jiang Chen replied with a smile.

When he was absorbing Immortal Crystals, Liu Shu was also absorbing them beside him. At least several thousand Immortal Crystals' worth of Immortal Essence had been absorbed by Liu Shu.

The current Liu Shu could be said to be the strongest among the summoned experts, and it would not be an exaggeration.

A mere three Great Emperors who hadn't absorbed Immortal Crystals were no match for her.

"Fellow Daoist, bring out that incredibly precious Immortal Crystal of yours." Jiang Chen looked at the Green-robed girl again and spoke.

Although he didn't particularly care for that single Immortal Crystal, he had, after all, helped the girl deal with the three. Even a mosquito's leg, no matter how small, was still meat. He couldn't let himself suffer a loss.

"Ah! Oh oh."

Hearing Jiang Chen's voice, the Green-robed girl snapped back to reality.

With a pained expression, she took out a shimmering white Immortal Crystal from her storage space and handed it to Jiang Chen.

"Fellow Daoist, thank you for saving me. This is the reward I promised you." The Green-robed girl handed over the Immortal Crystal while curiously observing Jiang Chen.

She had heard Liu Shu call Jiang Chen Sect Master.

A Sect Master whose subordinate could instantly kill a Late Stage Great Emperor—how terrifying an existence must he be?

Jiang Chen ignored the Green-robed girl's gaze, took the Immortal Crystal, and tossed it to Liu Shu, saying, "Xiao Shu, you can have this Immortal Crystal to absorb."

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

Liu Shu grabbed the Immortal Crystal and happily thanked Jiang Chen.

Seeing Jiang Chen casually bestow an incredibly precious Immortal Crystal upon his subordinate.

The Green-robed girl's face once again showed a shocked expression.

One must know, this was an Immortal Crystal!

Her father only obtained this one after tens of thousands of years, and now Jiang Chen casually gave it to his subordinate. This was too extravagant.

If she didn't know Jiang Chen's background, she would definitely want to be his subordinate too. After all, a Sect Master this generous might not exist in the entire starry sky.

"Fellow Daoist, my name is Ao Shishi. May I ask for Fellow Daoist's name?" The Green-robed girl suppressed the shock in her heart and politely clasped her fists as she asked Jiang Chen.

She absolutely had to befriend someone as unfathomable as Jiang Chen. As long as they got acquainted first, it would be easier to develop other connections later.

"Jiang Chen!" Jiang Chen did not evade, but calmly spoke his name.

He had come to the starry sky to travel, and it was only natural to meet some people, so he didn't want to put on airs as a Sect Master.

"Hehe, so it's Fellow Daoist Jiang."

Hearing Jiang Chen state his name, Ao Shishi asked with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Jiang, where are you headed? If you have nothing urgent, why not come to my clan for a rest, so this humble one can properly thank Fellow Daoist Jiang for saving my life?"

Her invitation was quite obvious: she wanted to befriend Jiang Chen.

After all, the life-saving grace between them had already been settled with that Immortal Crystal. Now, if Jiang Chen agreed to visit her clan, it would give her an opportunity to get to know him.

"Fellow Daoist Ao, you are too kind."

"However, This Sect Master still has important matters to attend to and cannot conveniently visit your esteemed clan. Let us meet again if fate allows." Jiang Chen politely declined.

Although he was out traveling this time, his main goal was to see if he could find a Disciple, so he had to wander the starry sky and go wherever there was a hint.

Hearing Jiang Chen's polite refusal.

Ao Shishi showed a disappointed expression, clasped her fists at Jiang Chen, and said, "Very well, since Fellow Daoist Jiang still has matters, this humble one dare not insist. I hope we can meet again."

With that, Ao Shishi turned and transformed into a streak of light, flying towards a certain direction in the starry sky.

Since Jiang Chen was unwilling to give her a chance to befriend him, she couldn't force it and could only leave it to fate.

Seeing Ao Shishi leave, Jiang Chen didn't linger either, saying to Liu Shu, "Xiao Shu, let's go too."

"Mhm mhm."

Liu Shu nodded, closely following beside Jiang Chen, and the two slowly walked through the starry sky.
