Chapter 164: It’s you guys! The remnants of the Jiang family! [Two in One]
Chapter 164 – It’s You! The remnants of the Jiang family! [2 in 1]
The implication was that other than them, the rest of the Jiang Clan had most likely met an untimely end.
It couldn’t be helped.
Being targeted by the hostile Violet Mansion Immortal Sect, and being able to escape from the likes of them right now was already considered a blessing in itself.
It wasn’t even an exaggeration to say that if it wasn’t for Jiang Chengxuan this time around, these people, I’m afraid it would be equally difficult for them to survive.
“Tell me carefully about the specifics of that Guiyuan Sect.”
Since they had already decided to take over the Jiang Clan of Immortals, the Guiyuan Sect, which was hostile to it, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, naturally needed to have a good understanding of it as well.
In this regard, whether it was Jiang Renyi, or Jiang Renchuan, or Jiang Rendao and Liu Linglong, they didn’t have the slightest bit of concealment, and immediately said the situation of the Guiyuan Sect to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan in detail.
To put it simply.
The Guiyuan Sect was not an overly powerful Purple Mansion Immortal Sect.
There were a total of two Purple Mansion Superiors within the sect.
One was named Zhao Mingfang, a newly promoted Purple Mansion first level cultivator.
The other was named Shi Yifei, the true ancestor of the Guiyuan Sect and a veteran Purple House cultivator.
His cultivation had reached the third level of Purple Mansion.
Other than that, there were thirteen Foundation Establishment Elders under the Guiyuan Sect.
Among them, Grand Elder Zhang Qingfeng, Second Elder Bai Xuanhong, and Third Elder Lan Changhe were all late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Apart from Third Elder Lan Changhe, who had already been decapitated by Jiang Chengxuan, the remaining Grand Elder Zhang Qingfeng, and Second Elder Bai Xuanhong, had cultivations at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment.
It was also worth mentioning that the Purple Mansion Immortal Clan, the You Family, who were in Qi’an County with them, and the Dao Couple of the Second Elder of their Clan, You Changyuan, was the disciple of that Guiyuan Sect’s newly-promoted Purple Mansion Upper Man, Zhao Mingfang.
Her name was Xue Wei’er, and she was at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment cultivation.
The relationship between the two families was also quite good.
There were also many exchanges in ordinary times.
It was just that I didn’t know if that Tour Clan Immortal Clan was involved in targeting their Jiang Clan this time.
I think it should be no.
On the one hand, that Violet Mansion Ancestor of the You Clan was also the same as the one of their Jiang Clan who had already sat down, and his lifespan was already short.
He wouldn’t easily intervene in the fight between the two Violet Mansion powers.
On the other hand, the main reason was that the Guiyuan Sect had always been greedy, and they were afraid that they wouldn’t be willing to let the rest of the people share the resources left behind by their Jiang Family.
After understanding these circumstances, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan already had a plan in their hearts.
“In that case, you and I will immediately return to Liang Qi’an County.
Taking advantage of that Guiyuan Sect, which is still unclear about your and my side, perhaps we can catch them off guard.”
Jiang Chengxuan slowly spoke.
“If we can take advantage of this opportunity to lure out those two Purple Mansions of the Guiyuan Sect, that would be the best thing ever.”
With his and Shen Ruyan’s strength, it wouldn’t be stressful to deal with an aged Violet Mansion at the third level, as well as a Violet Mansion at the first level who had just been promoted not long ago.
What they were afraid of was that they wouldn’t come out of that Returning Yuan Clan.
After all, without the Formation Breaking Bead, trying to break a Violet Mansion Immortal Sect’s Mountain Protecting Formation would not be an easy task.
Even if there was a way to break it, the price to be paid would definitely be quite large.
The loss would not be worth the gain.
Therefore, without absolute certainty, between people of the same realm, they would generally not go to the other party’s lair.
The reason why the Shen Family, in the beginning, had traveled to the Zhang Family was also because in their hands, they had a Formation Breaking Bead that could crack the other party’s Mountain Protector Formation in.
At this moment, when Jiang Renyi and the others heard Jiang Chengxuan’s words, each of them could not help but feel some excitement in their hearts.
If they could take advantage of this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Guiyuan Sect, it would more or less be considered revenge for their dead clansmen.
Most importantly, this time when they returned to Liang Qi’an County, they were almost 100% certain that they would be able to reclaim their Jiang Family’s ancestral land.
This was the most important thing, and the thing they currently cared about the most.
Soon, the three Jiang Renyi brothers, as well as Liu Linglong and the other Jiang family cultivators, immediately followed Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and began to return towards Liang Qi’an County.
During this time, they did not give up on contacting the other Jiang family members who were outside, in order to seek some sort of miracle.
Several months later.
Liang Kingdom, Qi’an County.
Former Jiang Clan Immortal Clan Land.
At this point in time, this place had obviously changed owners.
It could be clearly seen that the figures entering and exiting this place were all wearing the attire of the disciples of the Guiyuan Sect.
On a mountain peak with the densest spiritual qi.
Zhao Mingfang, who had been newly promoted to Purple Mansion Upper, couldn’t help but look at Zhang Qingfeng, the Grand Elder of the Guiyuan Sect, who had come forward, and faintly spoke:
“Still haven’t found the whereabouts of those remaining Jiang Family remnants?”
The Great Elder of the Guiyuan Sect, Zhang Qingfeng, was an old man in his sixties.
At this moment, when he heard the words of Supreme Elder Zhao Mingfang, he immediately replied with a respectful face:
“Elder Zhao, so far, we haven’t found the whereabouts of those remaining Jiang Clan remnants for now.
Our people, however, are already being dispatched to the two neighboring countries of Yun and Yan, and I believe that after some more time, there should be accurate news being sent back.”
Zhao Mingfang couldn’t help but nod slightly at his words, and then he heard him continue:
“Has there been any investigation into Elder Lan’s death, who actually did it?
If I don’t remember wrongly, back then, he should have traveled to that Cloud Country, right?
What? Until now, no accurate news has been sent back?”
“This ……?”
Seeing Zhao Mingfang suddenly mention this issue, on Zhang Qingfeng’s face, a difficult color instantly appeared.
To be honest, they were also confused as to why the soul lamps of Lan Changhe and the other group of accompanying disciples had gone out so far.
After all, with his understanding of Lan Changhe, the other party’s strength, at this level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, was already considered quite strong.
Even he did not have the slightest assurance that he would be able to completely leave the other party behind.
Then the question came.
What exactly was the identity of the person who had caused Blue Changhe’s soul lamp to go out that day? What kind of cultivation?
Could it really be that he was unlucky and ran into a Purple Mansion level cultivator and then was slapped to death by the other party in one go?
This claim, even for himself, felt a bit absurd.
What kind of existence was a Purple Mansion level person?
How could they casually strike out at a group of latecomers in Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment in a good cause?
Just as Zhang Qingfeng was pondering how to answer Zhao Mingfang’s question, a loud bang was suddenly heard in their ears.
Immediately afterward, some of the second-order protective formations they had placed here suddenly shook violently.
One by one, light shields rose up, but in an instant, they were torn to pieces by a strong force.
Soon after.
Countless cracks appeared on the surface of the layers of light curtains raised by the second-order protective formations in the twinkling of an eye.
All the cultivators of the Guiyuan Sect who were here were all looking at the scene that had suddenly happened in front of them with horrified faces.
Without waiting for them to figure out what was going on, an even more violent explosion could be heard in their ears once again.
With a rumble, all of the second-order protective formations here, at this moment, all of them shattered in unison!
In this instant, those Guiyuan Sect cultivators who were responsible for the daily maintenance of the formations all spat blood and flew to their deaths.
“What people?”
Zhao Mingfang and Zhang Qingfeng quickly flew out from the mountain peak they were on.
Looking at the wrecked mountain gate in front of them, both of their faces turned iron blue.
Zhao Mingfang even violently raised his eyes to look ahead.
There, at some point, a group of people had already appeared.
At the head of the group was a man and a woman.
It was none other than Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Behind them, they were followed by a group of Jiang family cultivators.
This caused Zhao Mingfang and Zhang Qingfeng, and even all the cultivators of the Guiyuan Sect present, to be taken aback.
“It’s you guys! The remnants of the Jiang Family!”
Zhang Qingfeng immediately stepped forward and said with an incomparably icy voice:
“You really have a lot of guts, this has already escaped, but you still dare to come back.”
“Old Zhang piker!”
The faces of the crowd of Jiang Clan cultivators all showed colors of grief and indignation.
Jiang Rendao even stepped forward and looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan:
“Uncle Gong, Uncle Mother, please also let me step in and personally kill this person!”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan glanced at him.
Then they saw Jiang Chengxuan nod.
“May.”
The Jiang Rendao in front of him was considered to be the one with the highest cultivation level amongst all the current Jiang family cultivators.
Like that Zhang Qingfeng, both had reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment.
He was also the one who had the most hope of stepping into the Purple Mansion realm in the future.
Only that he was not good at planning and management, so most of the time, he was responsible for teaching the clan’s children, as well as external battles.
Clank!
After receiving Jiang Chengxuan’s consent, Jiang Rendao did not hesitate for a second.
The second rank upper grade magic weapon long sword was immediately offered by him, and then he chopped at Zhang Qingfeng.
“How dare you!”
When Zhao Mingfang, who was on the other side, saw this, a flash of icy cold killing intent immediately swept across his eyes.
However, next before he, the newly-promoted Purple Mansion, could make any moves, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, the two of them, had already surrounded him in the center with one on the left and one on the right.
“What?”
Zhao Mingfang’s heart was immediately shaken.
He hadn’t even seen how the duo, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, had arrived in front of him just now.
What in the world was going on here?
How exactly did the other party do it?
Also, looking at the looks of these two, he had not seen them before.
Who exactly are they?
In an instant, many thoughts flashed through Zhao Mingfang’s mind.
At that moment, he saw Jiang Chengxuan speak to Shen Ruyan.
“Ruyan, let’s fight quickly.”
“Uh-huh.”
Shen Ruyan smiled and nodded.
In the next moment, the couple struck out together.
Zhao Mingfang, who had just recently ascended to the Purple Mansion, where could he possibly be a match for the couple?
He didn’t even have time to react before he was directly injured by the couple.
Collapsing on the ground with a face of horror and shock.
“You guys ……
What in the world are you people?”
And at this time, Jiang Rendao and Zhang Qingfeng over there had just managed to formally exchange blows.
The crowd of Guiyuan Sect cultivators who were here were all shocked as well.
Their clan’s supreme elder, Zhao Mingfang, whose cultivation had reached the realm of the Purple Mansion, had actually lost in the hands of those two so simply.
How terrifying would the strength of those two be?
Zhang Qingfeng’s heart was even more shaken.
He had just exchanged hands with Jiang Rendao, and his heart was already in turmoil.
He simply couldn’t imagine that the Jiang Family, which was already on the verge of extinction, had found those two Purple House Superiors from somewhere.
Clank!
It was at the same time.
A terrifying to the extreme blade astral deity was suddenly chopping out a deep, bone-deep blade mark on his Zhang Qingfeng’s chest.
Just then, he heard Jiang Rendao coldly say, “Old Zhang Pitbull, how dare you get distracted while fighting me, I think you really want to be on your way sooner.”
As the words fell, Jiang Rendao didn’t bother to look at Jiang Chengxuan’s situation on their side, the attack on his hand couldn’t help but become more and more ferocious, beating Zhang Qingfeng, a veteran ninth level Foundation Establishment cultivator, into a state of retreat.
“Right now, it’s not you asking us, it’s us asking you.”
Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes looked indifferently at Zhao Mingfang in front of him and suddenly raised his hand.
A dark red fire lotus quietly landed on the heavily injured Zhao Mingfang.
In an instant, terrifying burning pain immediately filled Zhao Mingfang’s limbs and bones, causing his body to instantly burst into dark red bubbles.
“Ah!”
An extremely mournful and miserable scream immediately escaped his mouth.
The entire person instantly rolled over and over on the ground in pain.
This was the Pain Karma Fire Lotus, a special torture technique that Jiang Chengxuan had learned from that Jiang family’s canonical books.
As long as you were once scorched by that Pain Karma Fire Lotus on your body, then regardless of whether or not you were a cultivator of the Purple Mansion realm, the pain on your body would be magnified a hundred times over the existing one.
And it will also enhance that pain as time goes on.
It was simply impossible for an ordinary cultivator of the Purple Mansion realm to withstand it.
Zhao Mingfang was the same.
He didn’t even manage to hold on for more than three breaths before his mouth was already shouting:
“Kill me!
You guys hurry up and kill me!”
Buzz!
Right at this moment, Jiang Chengxuan’s finger pointed in the air towards Zhao Mingfang.
That Pain Karma Fire Lotus that was still on his body, constantly burning, was instantly retrieved by Jiang Chengxuan into his hand.
All of a sudden, Zhao Mingfang was there panting heavily.
The depths of his eyes were even filled with endless panic.
The kind of pain he had just experienced, he would rather die than experience it a second time.
At that moment, he looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan with some difficulty, and said with a hint of trembling in his voice:
“Just say what you guys want, as long as it’s something I can do, there will never be any excuses.”
“Good!”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded slightly, then he heard him faintly say:
“Immediately send a message to that other Supreme Elder of your Guiyuan Sect, just say that you’ve discovered something here, and ask him to hurry and come here.
As for what exactly has been discovered in this and what to say, I think you would know better than us.
Unless you want to try that taste of being scorched by the Pain Karma Fire Lotus just now again.”
With those words, he saw a dark red fire lotus once again rise from Jiang Chengxuan’s fingertips.
Seeing this, Zhao Mingfang’s pupils instantly contracted violently, and on his face, a look of horror to the extreme once again appeared.
He knew very well that Jiang Chengxuan had asked himself to notify Shi Yifei, the remaining Supreme Elder of their Guiyuan Sect, to come here, in order to, surely, lure him out and thus deal with him.
Logically speaking, he definitely couldn’t do that even if he were to die.
However, thinking of the pain he had just experienced, Zhao Mingfang finally gritted his teeth and resolutely took out his summoning jade talisman and sent a message to Shi Yifei, who was located within their Guiyuan Sect.
