It was impossible that the members of the Celestial Bandit Gang had ever met Jiang Jichen, and he had never met them either. There was no prior enmity between them.
But Jiang Jichen needed a reason to strike them down, and he absolutely couldn't let anyone see that he had the slightest connection to the Red Beauty Adventurer Squad.
Thus, the moment he appeared, Jiang Jichen insisted that this was a blood feud between him and the Celestial Bandit Gang—an irreconcilable hatred that could only end in death!
As for his claim to have the Holy Sword, that was naturally a feint to sow confusion.
The Wandering Dragon Holy Sword was currently in Snowplum's hands, but no one knew that.
Besides, they had personally witnessed Jiang Jichen seizing the Holy Sword and unleashing a Holy Sword Technique that had cut down a huge swath of Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Its power was terrifying to the extreme, a genuine threat to their existence.
Therefore, no one would doubt his words.
