Chapter 278 – Killing for Treasure
Chapter 278 – Killing and Capturing Treasure
[Congratulations to the host, he has attained the achievement of realizing his own path, and has obtained an Elixir of Luck.
[Luck Pill: After taking it, for a period of time, it can greatly enhance one’s own luck, turning misfortune into good fortune, turning danger into safety, and even accomplishing what one wishes for].
For this sudden prompt from the system, Jiang Chengxuan, who was immersed in the changes in his own cultivation, didn’t pay attention to it for the first time.
It was only after a long time that his attention was completely drawn away from this enlightenment and turned to the system’s rewards.
This caused his heart to immediately become somewhat surprised.
He hadn’t really thought that this time, the system would actually reward him with an item like the Qi Luck Dan.
As everyone knew, Qi Luck was ethereal and unsearchable, yet it existed in a tangible way.
But where cultivators were concerned, there was no one who could deny the word of qi luck.
Luck enough, even if you qualifications root bone enlightenment is not good, but in a variety of opportunities to make up for, the road is still promising.
On the contrary, even if you are gifted and enlightened extraordinary, but not enough chance to add body, and even constantly have all kinds of tribulation with, the future of the road, I am afraid it is difficult to be optimistic.
And this is the importance of luck for a cultivator.
Now the system had rewarded him with such an item.
Although it was only temporary, its usefulness and value was still incomparably huge and could not even be estimated.
Especially at certain critical moments, the role was irreplaceable by other items.
“Husband, congratulations!”
At this moment, Shen Ruyan, who was located beside him, saw that Jiang Chengxuan had finally turned around completely from the enlightenment he had just experienced, and immediately smiled and opened his mouth to congratulate him.
On Jiang Chengxuan’s face, a smile immediately surfaced as well.
He nodded at Shen Ruyan and said:
“Just now, thanks to Madam’s protection, Madam has worked hard.”
Obviously his heart was also very clear, during this period of his enlightenment, if Shen Ruyan hadn’t been there to help escort him, I’m afraid that he would have long since been startled by the outside world’s disturbances.
The entire process of enlightenment, naturally, could not be so smooth.
There was even a high possibility that it would be interrupted in the middle.
If that were to happen, it would truly be too much of a pity.
It would also be impossible for him to reap such a huge harvest as he did now.
One must know that the cultivation enhancement at the moment, as well as the system’s rewards, were merely things that could be seen on the bright side for the time being.
Many things lurking within his body, as well as some things in the shadows, that amount was even greater.
In the future, he will be transformed, absorbed, and completely changed into a part of himself, at that time, he will definitely also usher in a leap of improvement.
At this time.
The couple chatted with each other, talking about some of their respective experiences and feelings during this period of time.
Without realizing it, they had already arrived within their own Jiang Clan’s Immortal Clan’s workshop.
At this time, they were still dressed as low ranked cultivators.
Looking around at the low ranked cultivators that were coming and going, the couple’s mood couldn’t help but be quite relaxed as well.
It could be seen that after all these years of precipitation, their Jiang Clan of Immortals was getting better and better.
However, this pleasant and relaxed mood did not last long, and soon the two of them were struck by the stores that their Jiang Clan had opened themselves.
Especially the attitude of those Jiang Clan members, made their faces ugly.
There was nothing else, arrogance was all.
These Jiang Clan members who had been dispatched here, when facing the cultivators who had come to their stores to purchase items, most of them, after all, displayed a condescending and indifferent stance.
Only when facing cultivators from the Bishui Sword Pavilion, which was at the same level as their Jiang family, or cultivators from the Tian Yue Sect, would they show any enthusiasm.
Such obvious differentiation, do you really think that those other cultivators who came would not be able to feel it?
If it wasn’t for the fact that the quality of the things they sold in the Jiang family’s stores was really a step above the other stores, and that from time to time they would introduce treasures that were almost impossible to find in the outside world, I’m afraid that the business of their Jiang family’s stores would have to drop by at least a few percent.
But even so, the business of their Jiang family stores, explicitly and implicitly, is bound to be damaged a lot.
And in terms of word-of-mouth, it will definitely be criticized by other cultivators who come to their Jiang family stores.
This has a great impact on their Jiang family as a whole, and even his Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Especially in terms of revenue.
After all, the actual person in charge of the entire Jiang family was currently him.
If the earnings of the Jiang family suffered and their reputation was affected, that would be tantamount to his Jiang Chengxuan’s earnings being affected and his interests being jeopardized.
How would this work?
“It seems that over the years, the Jiang family’s development has still been too fast, and the accumulation of heritage is not enough.”
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan turned his head to look at Shen Ruyan and said in a low voice:
“The Jiang Family’s overall status has suddenly been elevated, and these people’s hearts have failed to keep up in time, so if this continues, I’m afraid it will be a curse rather than a blessing.”
Speaking at this point, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes, had already taken on a hint of coldness.
“The whole picture can be seen by the details.
Now that these Jiang Clan children are behaving like this, I have reason to suspect that they have changed in other aspects as well, I’m afraid.
Perhaps, there have already been things that neither you nor I would like to see happen.”
To know, with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s eyes and thinking that they had today.
Just by relying on a little detail, some small thing, they could roughly deduce a lot of the situation.
Shen Ruyan’s expression was also a bit gloomy at this time.
She knew that what her own husband had said was most likely true.
Suddenly, the gazes of the two of them turned to the outside of the marketplace in unison.
Shen Ruyan’s eyes immediately became very heavy.
Jiang Chengxuan, on the other hand, unabashedly revealed a touch of chilling killing intent.
Just now, a seventy-year-old cultivator of the seventh level of Qi Refining, with his granddaughter who was about seventeen or eighteen years old, went to the store opened by their Jiang family to sell an item.
With Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s vision, it was naturally not difficult to see that the item was a second-order lower-grade ore.
However, the two grandchildren were obviously not very clear about it, and only roughly knew that the item should be quite extraordinary.
But in the grandparents and grandchildren, in that item, to be fooled by the market, low price sold to their Jiang family store, the store in the two Qi refining ninth layer cultivators.
Looking at their appearance, they should be their Jiang family’s sons and daughters, they actually quietly followed that grandparents and grandchildren.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who had been mixing in the Immortal Cultivation World for an unknown number of years, immediately knew.
Those two Jiang family descendants should be thinking that on the bodies of that grandparents and grandchildren, or the place where they lived, there should still be treasures of a similar grade.
That was why they wanted to follow them up to get a glimpse of what was going on.
The ultimate goal, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan almost didn’t even need to guess now, it was bound to be to kill and seize the treasure.
This was the thing that Jiang Chengxuan detested and resented the most.
Especially after he had realized his own path, he had already set his mind on correcting certain orders in the Immortal Cultivation World within his power, as a way to repay and give back to this heaven and earth for their nurturing grace.
This matter, he would always do.
As his cultivation and status rose, the workshops he adopted and dealt with would be different.
But no matter what, the first point was that he had to ensure that on his side, there would no longer be those chaotic things happening.
Undoubtedly, those two Jiang Clan’s children at the moment had just bumped into his gun.
At this moment.
Outside this workshop of their Jiang family.
The seventy year old man who was rushing along with his granddaughter suddenly detected a hint of something strange, and with that, he accelerated the speed of his flight.
This immediately caused the two Jiang Family disciples who were following them to be startled, and subconsciously thought that they had been exposed.
So they simply also no longer hide, recluse speed flash, actually a left and a right, directly stopped in front of the two grandchildren.
Seeing this, the seventy year old man and his granddaughter were immediately startled.
Especially the seventy year old man, but also recognized the identity of the two people, a face expression immediately changed greatly.
“You are the people from the Jiang Yun Treasure House!”
Jiang Yun Treasure House was the Jiang Clan store they had gone to earlier.
Seeing that their identities had already been recognized by the other party, the two Jiang Clan children simply stopped hiding.
He then saw one of the youths named Jiang Chuan right say, “Since you know that we are the Jiang family, then you should know clearly that no matter whether you resist or run away, it’s useless.
If you know what you’re doing, you’d better bring out all the treasures you’ve hidden on your body.
In this way, we might even consider letting you go.”
As soon as the seventy year old man heard Jiang Chuan right’s words, he knew that the other party was simply talking nonsense.
Now that the two of them had already recognized the other party’s identity, then the other party would never be able to let them off again, even if it was for the sake of his own family’s reputation.
At the very least, he would no longer let them leave so easily.
This caused him to instantly feel some regret in his heart.
If he had known this, he shouldn’t have brought his granddaughter to the store opened by that Jiang family.
Originally, he thought that a Jindan Immortal Clan like the Jiang Family should have some protection in this regard.
But I didn’t want to think that it was just like those other stores.
“Are you guys sure that if we really take out something, you will let us go?”
Although he knew that the other party was unlikely to let the two of them go, the seventy year old still wanted to struggle a little more.
No matter what, he would still have to delay for some time.
Because in the dark, he was already transmitting to his granddaughter that he would try his best to stall those two in a while, creating as much of an escape opportunity for her granddaughter as possible.
This caused his granddaughter’s eyes to instantly fill with tears.
Earlier on, she had shared her grandfather’s belief that a great Jindan clan like the Jiang family would not easily covet their family’s belongings.
As it turned out, it was they who really thought things were simple.
Just as the grandparents and grandchildren, were secretly transmitting their voices, Jiang Chuanhu, who was located on the right side of Jiang Chuan, was showing a hint of ferocity.
Only to hear his cold voice: “Big brother, with them to say so much nonsense why?
Kill them, their body things will naturally come to our hands.
With this clue, even if we want to find where they live, it shouldn’t be too difficult.”
Hearing this, the grandparents and grandchildren’s faces finally changed drastically.
The old man’s granddaughter also finally couldn’t help herself and instantly said with a face full of anger:
“Losing that you are still a Jindan Immortal Clan, I can’t imagine that the hallowed Jindan Immortal Clan, Jiang Family, is actually the same as those unorthodox clans… Sooner or later, there will be a day when your Jiang Family’s evil deeds will be known by the world.
At that time, everyone won’t spare your Jiang family!”
“Seek death!”
The words of the old man’s granddaughter instantly caused a flash of icy killing intent to flash through the eyes of both Jiang Chuanhu and Jiang Chuanrui.
At that moment, the two of them simply didn’t bother with any more nonsense.
Between raising their hands, they offered up two first-order flying swords.
One on the left and one on the right, they directly chopped towards the grandparents and grandchildren.
How could the grandparents and grandchildren possibly be a match for these two Jiang Family children?
Almost in just an instant, they felt an aura of death approaching.
This caused a flash of despair to appear on the faces of the two immediately.
But just at that moment, two silhouettes, suddenly appeared in front of the grandchildren.
It was none other than Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Just heard two ding dang sounds.
The flying swords that Jiang Chuan Rui and Jiang Chuan Hu had offered up immediately flew backward.
The hearts of the two of them were immediately startled, and they hurriedly looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
However, because the couple’s appearance was disguised at this time, these two people did not recognize that the one standing in front of them was in fact their family’s old ancestor.
He heard Jiang Chuanhu coldly say, “Who are you two? Do you know who we are?”
However, at this time, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, simply didn’t pay any attention to them, but instead, turned their gaze, towards the grandparents and grandchildren.
Then he heard Jiang Chengxuan say, “Both of you, you should be fine, right?
Tell us all about what just happened, carefully.”
The grandparents and grandchildren obviously didn’t expect that at this most dangerous moment, there would be someone who would come forward in a righteous manner.
This made their hearts instantly grateful.
Just then, they heard the old man’s granddaughter say, “Many thanks to you two seniors, just now it was really this Jiang Yun Bao Lou’s people who bullied too much ……”
With that, the old man’s granddaughter was carefully talking about what had just happened with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
After hearing her words, Jiang Chengxuan was immediately expressionless as he turned to the two brothers, Jiang Chuan Rui and Jiang Chuan Hu, and said in an indifferent tone:
“Do you guys have anything else to say?”
“A bunch of nonsense!”
However, what answered Jiang Chengxuan was the cold drink of the two brothers.
“My hallowed Jiang Family’s Jiang Yun Treasure House would care little for the things of their two loose cultivators?”
Saying that, Jiang Chuan right looked towards Jiang Chengxuan.
“Kid, there are some things that I advise you to better stay out of.
Otherwise, you, as well as your family or clan, may incur great misfortune because of you.”
“What? Do you guys still want to break up your family and destroy your clan?”
Jiang Chengxuan’s tone suddenly became calm.
However, Shen Ruyan, who was familiar with him on the side, knew that this was already a sign that he was angry to the extreme.
“So what?”
Jiang Chuan Rui and Jiang Chuan Hu, however, didn’t notice any of this at all.
Or rather they noticed it and didn’t care at all.
He heard Jiang Chuan right continue, “I’ll advise you one thing, offending my Jiang family will not do you any good, neither for you, nor for the forces behind you.
If you know what’s good for you, you’d better hurry up and leave, otherwise, at that time, even if you want to leave, you won’t be able to.”
“Is that so?”
Jiang Chengxuan laughed back in anger.
“Then what if I have to be in charge? Nowadays, are the Jiang family’s children, each and every one of them arrogant and cocky to that extent?
Do you really think that because you are members of the Jiang family, others won’t dare to do anything to you?”
As he spoke, Jiang Chengxuan had already raised his hand.
However, the opposite Jiang family duo reacted faster.
He heard Jiang Chuanhu shout, “Good guts!”
As the words fell, the hands of the two brothers suddenly threw out several thunderbolts that were black-purple in color, with the surface surrounded by a trace of lightning.
