Chapter 156: The Betrayer
Chapter 156 – The Betrayer
Upon hearing Lan Changhe’s words, the old man he called Fu Yunsheng immediately bowed down with an excited expression:
“Many thanks to Elder Lan for making it possible!
I will definitely be more dutiful in the future and dedicate everything for my Guiyuan Sect!”
“Elder Fu?”
It was just that his words, when they fell on the ears of the middle-aged man and the green-skirted young girl now, were like five thunderbolts hitting the top of the roof, and their faces all brushed with an incomparably pale color.
To know, the old man in front of them, that was an old man who had served their Jiang family, almost an entire generation.
From a young age, he grew up in their Jiang family.
Although he was a subordinate, no matter whether it was the middle-aged man or the green-skirted girl, from the beginning to the end, there was no treating him as a real subordinate.
Usually, he was treated with even more respect.
But it was such an old man who had now done something to betray their Jiang family, how could this not make the middle-aged man and the green-skirted girl feel shocked and incredulous?
“No, this isn’t true, this must not be true!”
The green-skirted maiden desperately shook her head.
Obviously, the betrayal of the talismanic old man in front of her was already shattering her three views.
The middle-aged man next to her immediately reached out and heavily patted on her shoulder, saying in a deep voice:
“Rou’er!”
Only after being shouted at by her own father did the green-skirted girl slowly calm down.
She couldn’t help but be looking towards Fu Yunsheng, and with some difficulty, she opened her mouth to ask:
“Elder Fu, what exactly is this for?”
Hearing her words, Fu Yunsheng glanced at Lan Changhe, who was located in mid-air.
Seeing him nod, he then smiled faintly and said:
“Miss Yun Rou, this is also the last time, I will call you miss.
In fact, you don’t have to be so sad, because since the beginning, I am not a member of your Jiang family.
My true identity is actually the secret son of the Guiyuan Sect.
Only I did not expect, I in your Jiang family this stay, even stayed for so long.
If it weren’t for the occurrence of this incident today, I myself would be on the verge of thinking that I am an old servant of your Jiang family.”
These words finally completely shattered the last shred of fantasy of the green-skirted girl and the middle-aged man.
Only a trace of misery passed across the middle-aged man’s face as he nodded and said:
“A good Guiyuan Sect, truly a good plan and a good tactic, I, Jiang Renchuan, am willing to bow to it!”
After saying that, his gaze violently turned to the green-skirted girl, his voice resolute and determined as he said:
“Yun Rou, you leave immediately!
Go as far away as you can, I’ll block them for my father!”
Hearing his words, on the side of Fu Yunsheng’s face, a somewhat bizarre smile suddenly surfaced.
Then he heard him leisurely say, “Second Master, Miss Yun Rou, she can’t leave.
Not only her, even you, as well as the Jiang family members that you have placed in the remaining few places, they likewise cannot leave.”
As the words fell, the Jiang family members who had been arranged by Jiang Renchuan in the remaining places were actually escorted to this residence one by one by a group of disciples dressed in Guiyuan Sect clothing.
“You guys ……!”
Seeing this scene, Jiang Renchuan immediately turned red.
He didn’t expect, no matter what, that the one who had come to them right now, besides that Lan Changhe, there were actually other Guiyuan Sect cultivators.
This was really ……
Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he suddenly felt a stabbing pain coming from his own dantian place.
Immediately afterward, the true essence around him suddenly fell silent.
No matter how he mobilized it, the true essence in his dantian was as if it was dead, without the slightest reaction.
“Hmmm ……”
Just at the same time, Jiang Yunru, the green-skirted girl beside him, similarly appeared to be in the same situation as him.
The dantian was tingling, and the true essence in his body could not be mobilized.
“Fu! Yun! Sheng!”
Jiang Renchuan’s gaze suddenly looked at Fu Yunsheng in death.
Fu Yunsheng, however, was not the least bit surprised, but instead laughed and said:
“Second Master, Miss Yun Rou, how is it?
My Guiyuan Sect’s Thousand Specters Scatter, it’s not bad, right?
As long as you guys don’t have the antidote in your possession, even if you’re late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, there’s a fairly high probability that you’ll be struck.
Otherwise, why do you think I’m here talking to you guys?
Do you really think that it’s to specifically answer your doubts for you guys?”
With these words, Fu Yunsheng stopped looking at Jiang Renchuan and Jiang Yunru’s crowd of Jiang family members, and instead, Jiang’s gaze, looked towards Blue Elder, who was located in mid-air, and then respectfully cupped his fists and said:
“Blue Elder, Jiang Renchuan these people, now there is already not much resistance, how about Jiang they handed over to the old man, the old man personally send them on their way how?”
Lan Changhe nodded faintly.
“May.”
After a pause, only to hear him add:
“But before that, I still need to solve a hidden danger for you.”
As the words fell, he saw a flash of sword light on his body.
In the next moment, Jiang Renchuan’s entire body, who was located below him, suddenly spat blood and flew backwards.
On his body, a bead glowing with lightning light suddenly fell out.
Seeing that one bead, Fu Yunsheng’s pupils instantly contracted.
“It’s the Thunder Cloud Bead!”
There was some fear in his heart.
He was very clear that the Thundercloud Bead was a second-rank upper-grade disposable attack prop.
Once it was activated, even if it was a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, if he was not careful, he might be seriously injured or even die.
If a cultivator like him, who was over one hundred and eighty years old and whose cultivation was still at the third level of Foundation Establishment, were to be hit by that Thunder Cloud Bead, there was absolutely no possibility of survival.
Once he thought about this, a scowl immediately appeared on Fu Yunsheng’s face.
He looked towards Jiang Renchuan and said in a sardonic voice:
“It’s really unexpected that you, Second Master, have stored such a card in your body, it’s really out of my expectation.”
With that, he hurriedly turned to Lan Changhe in mid-air again, then said with a grateful face:
“Many thanks to Elder Lan for his help, this time, if it wasn’t for Elder Lan’s touch to help me, I, an old man, might really have been successful in that Jiang Renchuan’s assassination.”
“Well ……”
Lan Changhe nodded faintly.
Seeing this, Fu Yunsheng immediately stopped hesitating and raised his hand.
A hook-shaped magic weapon suddenly appeared in his hand, and then above this hook-shaped magic weapon, a piercing cold aura instantly erupted, and swept towards Jiang Yunru, who was not far away from Jiang Renchuan.
“Rou’er!”
Jiang Renchuan had never expected that Fu Yunsheng would be the first to lay hands on his daughter.
This caused him to instantly burst into a rage.
However, at this moment, what Fu Yunsheng wanted to see was precisely this current expression of his, Jiang Renchuan, and the corner of his mouth couldn’t help but tickle up into a sardonic smile.
“Jiang Renchuan, since you just tried to use that Thundercloud Bead to backstab me, then I want you to watch with your own eyes, to watch your daughter, as well as your clansmen, die one by one in front of you!”
“Father ……”
Seeing that the hook-shaped magic weapon was getting closer and closer to her, Jiang Yunru’s eyes couldn’t help but also emerge a trace of panic.
She couldn’t help but subconsciously close her eyes, waiting for the moment of death to come.
However, some time passed and the expected death did not come.
She slowly opened her eyes in some astonishment.
What she saw was precisely a scene that she would never forget.
Only to see that between her and that hook-shaped magic weapon, at some point, there were already two more people.
A man and a woman.
The man was as plump as jade, and the woman was as beautiful as a country.
However, these were not the most important thing, the most important thing was that the man with a hearty god like jade was currently using one of his hands to gently grab that second-order hook-shaped magic weapon.
Regardless of how the owner of that hook-shaped magic weapon, Fu Yunsheng, pushed and poured in his true essence, that hook-shaped magic weapon in the other party’s hand was not moving at all.
