More and more people started to discuss the deaths of those who'd perished during the Demon Slaying Expedition.
Among them were two of Jiang Qingyun's lackeys, one of Jiang Qiyue's lackeys, and Jiang Cheng, who had yet to appear.
More and more people suspected that Jiang Cheng still hadn't appeared until now. Could it be that he had died in Heavendrive Forest?
Although the possibility of this was very small, it was still possible. Even if one was an inheritor of the True Dragon Blood Essence, it was still possible for them to die in the Heavendrive Forest.
However, with how powerful the inheritors of the True Dragon Race were, they would definitely be able to crush the Burning Explosion Scroll and call for reinforcements if their lives were truly in danger, so how did they die just like that?
"I know Jiang Cheng. If he's facing death, he definitely won't care about his face or the points he earned from killing monsters."
"That's right. Could it be that there was a huge accident? Did he encounter some extremely powerful demon beast?"
"I don't know. There has never been a case of a True Dragon's successor dying during the Demon-Slaying Training Grounds. Let's wait and see. It might still be happening."
Many people were discussing about Jiang Cheng, but it was obvious that Jiang Cheng would never appear in front of them again.
Soon, an expert of the Jiang Clan came out of the Heavendrive Forest, dragging the skeleton of an ordinary dragon. His face was extremely gloomy.
These were the bones of an Emerald Rock Dragon.
When Kang Shin-mu saw this, he immediately thought of the Emerald Rock Dragon, who was Jiang Qingyun's subordinate.
At that time, Kang Shin-mu had lured a group of Backstab Boars. The Backstab Boars had chased after the Emerald Rock Dragon, causing it to be heavily injured and unable to move within the Sky Drive Forest. Kang Shin-mu had ignored it.
Now, he found out that the other party was dead.
The Emerald Rock Dragon was heavily injured alone in the Heavendrive Forest. It couldn't even crush the Flame Explosion Scroll, so it could only be eaten by the other Earth Demons that had come after smelling the scent of blood.
"Quite a number of rookies have died in this Demon-Slaying Training Ground. It looks like there's a need to teach them a lesson and let them know that their lives are more important than anything else."
The important figures of the Jiang Clan gathered together, their faces extremely ugly.
So far, the number of people they had confirmed to be dead had already reached eight. In addition, there were still six people who had not come out of the Heavenly Drive Forest. These six people included Jiang Cheng, the guy who was killed by Kang Shin-mu and obtained the inheritance of the Thunder Slayer True Dragon.
If all six of them died, they would have lost fourteen people this time.
This was something that had never happened in the previous Demon-Slaying Adventures!
"In the Bone-piercing Winter Spider's accident, five people should have died. Three Divine Dragon skeletons were found nearby, but the strange thing is that two of the skeletons couldn't be found. Logically speaking, Demonic Beasts shouldn't be able to deal with the Divine Dragon bones of Dragon Warriors."
Someone said.
After all, Qing Bo Water Dragon and one of Jiang Qiyue's subordinates had died near the Bone-Piercing Winter Spider, but their corpses couldn't be found. This was a bit strange, and the whole matter was shrouded in mystery.
More and more Divine Dragon skeletons were dragged out of the Heavenly Drive Forest.
Kang Shin-mu watched from the side, listening to their discussions. His expression did not change. His mental fortitude could be said to be extremely strong, and he would not give himself away because of such a small discussion.
But Jiang Yuening seemed a bit nervous.
She knew that it was Kang Shin-mu who devoured Jiang Cheng's skeleton and killed him. And the two dragon skeletons that disappeared from the Bone-piercing Winter Spider should also be the work of Kang Shin-mu?
However, Jiang Yuening did not look at Kang Shin-mu, which made Kang Shin-mu secretly nod.
Although this woman was nervous, she still had mental fortitude.
Jiang Yuening was very clear that although Jiang Cheng was the one who attacked Kang Shin-mu first, the one who died was Jiang Cheng. If it was announced, Kang Shin-mu would definitely be severely punished.
Even if it was not for herself, but for the entire Princely Palace, Jiang Yuening would not divulge this matter.
If Kang Shin-mu were to be punished, those Earth Fey Cores would definitely not be obtained normally. Then the Princely Palace would not be able to obtain first place in the Demon Slaying trial. It was even possible that they would end up in last place!
Until late in the morning, an unconscious Mortal Dragon inheritor was finally found and brought out of the Heavenly Drive Forest. If it had been any later, this guy would have become food for the Demon Beasts.
As a result, including those who had disappeared, the Jiang clan had lost a total of thirteen geniuses of the younger generation in the Demon Slaying Expedition. Among them was a true dragon's successor, Jiang Cheng!
At this moment, the people of the Southern Residence were in an uproar, especially Jiang Cheng's father, who was an Elder of the Southern Residence.
"No matter what, even if they are dead, we must find their skeletons. But the results of this Demon Slaying trial should be announced soon."
The elders of the Jiang Clan's Princes' Palace said in a bad mood.
Not only had so many people died during the Demon-Slaying Experiential Training, but the Grand Prince Palace's results had also been terrible. They still didn't know how many points Jiang Yuening had obtained, but even if Jiang Yuening performed normally, the Grand Prince Palace would only rank second from the bottom among the Five Prefectures.
Would the dead Jiang Cheng's Southern Residence be worse than the Princely Palace?
Even if a true dragon inheritor had died, such a major event had occurred. But the Demon Slaying trial's progress?
4000
?
It had to continue. The announcement of the rankings was a must, followed by the rewards. According to the rankings, the people would be allowed to choose a dragon martial technique to cultivate.
As for the deaths, no one would think that it was done by one of their own. It was most likely the work of the Demon Slaying trial.
Therefore, this matter could be discussed later. The most important thing was the ranking of the Demon Slaying trial. This was what the living cared about the most.
"Come up and hand over the Fey Cores. We will be in charge of the statistics."
The elders of the Five Residences went to the center of the crowd and said to the new dragon martial artists in all directions.
Everyone stepped forward and handed over all the Earth Demon's Beast Cores that they had obtained. Among the five manors, each mansion would collect the Beast Cores obtained by their juniors. Before this, the elders who collected the Beast Cores would be inspected, so it was impossible to cheat in this process.
The elders of the Five Residences collected the Fey Cores. Soon, the expressions of the two elders of the Princely Palace became extremely interesting.
They had originally thought that the Princely Palace's results would be very bad.
But as Kang Shin-mu and Jiang Yuening came forward and handed over the hundreds of Fey Cores, their expressions changed rapidly. How did these two obtain so many Fey Cores?
This was illogical!
When the two of them handed over 300 demon cores, the faces of the two elders were filled with utter shock.
