Chapter 292 – Full Suppression, Repulse, Cao Family’s Scruples, Seven Stars Appearance
Boom!
It was in midair that the red-colored short sword erupted with an incomparably appalling might.
The rest of the waves, all of them shook the Group Star Dueling Heavenly Chain Formation behind Jiang Chengxuan, and the light flickered for a while.
The divine sense of the Cao Family’s False Infant cultivator was even more firmly locked onto Jiang Chengxuan.
Ensuring that there was nowhere for him to escape.
Seeing the sharpness of the red-colored short blade getting closer and closer.
In Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes, a stern aura flashed brightly.
In the next moment, his figure suddenly expanded.
Hohohohoho–
Berserk waves of air, which were clearly centered in a circle where he was, spread crazily in all directions.
The surging qi and blood was even like the Yangtze River, bursting rapidly within his body.
In everyone’s ears, it was as if they heard a violent clattering sound.
That was the movement driven out by the surging and rushing flow of qi and blood.
The roots of the large tendons were like coiled dragons.
It was like a fiery wave of air, instantly colliding with the sharpness of the red-colored short sword, and then erupted into a loud sound that seemed to shake the sky and the earth.
Rumble.
Hundreds of meters away from several mountain peaks, suddenly bang bang bang exploded into a sky full of dust out of thin air.
In the blink of an eye, it filled a thousand meter radius.
Within this sky of smoke and dust, above Jiang Chengxuan’s hands, there was suddenly a red-colored light bursting out.
That was a manifestation of qi and blood being strong to a certain extent.
There was a clang.
The red-colored short sword collided with Jiang Chengxuan’s dual fists, actually erupting with a sound that sounded like a metal clash.
A path of twisted qi, mana, and saber awnings, instantly was snaking and spinning and shooting in all directions.
Boom boom boom!
The mountain peaks that were more than ten or twenty miles away in the distance once again exploded into a sky full of smoke and dust.
Cao Changlie, who had had one of his arms chopped off by Jiang Chengxuan, as well as another Jindan 9th layer cultivator called Cao Changqing, were all so shocked that they exploded back in succession.
They simply didn’t expect that Jiang Chengxuan’s strength in front of them had actually reached this level.
Both sides’ attacks had clearly exceeded the Jindan level.
Wherever they were grazed, they could be seriously injured as a result.
Of course.
At this time, the one who was most shocked was also Cao Xiuyang, that is, that False Infant Cultivator.
In his mind, he thought that he was a False Infant Cultivator, as long as he made a move, he would be able to suppress Jiang Chengxuan easily.
Even if he had a strength comparable to the ninth level of Jindan, that would be no exception.
However, the truth was that he simply didn’t have the slightest advantage to speak of in front of him.
There was even a tendency to be suppressed by the other party in turn.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
Suddenly, Jiang Chengxuan threw three punches in succession.
Each punch was as if it was a titanic blow.
It was also like a torrential beast trampling.
It carried a shocking brute force that was overwhelmingly hard to resist.
So much so that the red-colored sword above that red-colored short sword, burst out of the red-colored sword awnings, shrink again and again, until completely bang a completely exploded.
“How can ……?”
Cao Xiuyang’s eyes suddenly shrunk.
The entire person was in mid-air, and was even completely uncontrollable as he retreated back and forth.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Only after he had crashed through several large mountains, once again stirring up smoke and dust in the sky, his figure that had been retrogressing all the way backward, only then did he slowly stop.
“You ……”
Looking at Jiang Chengxuan who was slowly approaching him once again, Cao Xiuyang’s hand that was holding the sword was trembling slightly.
Strong, really too strong.
The power that the other party had just displayed was simply unimaginable, terrifying and appalling to the extreme.
Truly, more than a demonic beast.
“What? Can we talk properly now?”
Finally, Jiang Chengxuan spoke faintly.
The faces of Cao Xiuyang, Cao Changlie, and Cao Changqing were all extremely ugly at this moment.
Being fully suppressed by such a cultivator who wasn’t even at the eighth level of Jindan.
Especially Cao Changlie, who had even had one of his arms chopped off by the other party.
To say that they were not angry and hateful in their hearts, it was clearly impossible.
But there was no way that the form was stronger than the person.
At the moment, the three of them had already fallen into an absolute disadvantage, even if there was more anger, more dissatisfaction, more resentment in their hearts, it was meaningless.
Besides, the other party was not the only one.
His daoist couple was also present at this moment.
Although the other party did not make a move just now, it was thought that the strength of the other party should not be any worse.
If they still wanted to come at them as hard as they did initially, or even directly wanted to take people away regardless, it was obviously already an unrealistic thing to do.
For today’s solution, can only wait for the coming day, and then find them to properly calculate this account.
“Hm? What? Don’t talk anymore?
Just now, I seem to have heard you guys say that you want me and my daoist couple, to go on a journey with you guys, what’s going on here?”
Jiang Chengxuan frowned and asked, pretending not to know.
This caused Cao Xiuyang’s trio’s expressions to immediately just stiffen.
How could this make them say anything else?
Their own strength was inferior to the other party’s, and trying to forcefully take the other party away was already impossible.
However, if they were to kindly ask them to cooperate with them, to ask them to join them and head to the Cao family to be investigated, these words were likewise already impossible to say now.
Especially since they had just experienced a great battle with each other.
Even if they changed their attitude, the other party would definitely not be able to agree, much less appreciate it.
Unless Jiang Chengxuan had a pit in their brains.
But this was clearly something unrealistic.
So the best thing they could do now was to pretend that nothing had happened.
Everything would wait until they returned to the Cao family.
Seeing that the three of them completely ignored his words and just walked straight away, Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes couldn’t help but narrow slightly.
Shen Ruyan even came to his side, looking at the trio’s back, she couldn’t help but open her mouth to inquire:
“Husband, should we leave them behind completely?”
This question, to be honest, Jiang Chengxuan had just thought about it.
But in the end, he dismissed it.
Regardless of whether or not the Cao Clan and their family would suspect them for the death of the three Cao Xuanyao people in the first place, at this moment, if they blatantly left Cao Xiuyang and the others behind, they would be literally piercing the sky.
Because this move was already no different from declaring war on the Cao Family.
Even if the Cao Clan was just trying to maintain the majesty of being a Yuan Ying Immortal Clan, they would inevitably start a war with their Jiang Immortal Clan.
And in the midst of this, the Cao Clan’s YuanYing True Lord would inevitably make an official appearance.
At that time, it would obviously be impossible to bring things to an end like today.
Most importantly, with their Jiang Family’s current reserves, it was simply not enough to support a war of that scale.
Even if he and Shen Ruyan, possessed the strength to fight against a Yuanying True Lord head on, but in a battle underneath this, their Jiang Family would inevitably lose.
In turn.
Right now, they allowed Cao Xiuyang and the others to go back.
Even though after this, the Cao family would still see them, the Jiang family, as objects to be eradicated.
However, they would already take into account the strength of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan and would not act rashly.
At least until they had really gotten to the bottom of them, the Cao Family would not do anything too drastic.
This was also the case.
When Cao Xiuyang, Cao Changlie, and Cao Changqing returned to the Cao Clan’s Immortal Clan and informed the people in the clan of what happened to them on this trip, it immediately drew the attention of the entire Cao Clan.
The entire Cao Clan obviously did not expect that within the Cangnan Domain, without realizing it, there was actually a Jindan cultivator with such strong strength.
Thinking back, at the late Jindan stage, the person who possessed such strength was the Xuan Yang child from hundreds of years ago.
Of course.
The Xuan Yang child at that time, now is already become the Xuan Yang True Lord with a great prestige.
The name Xuan Yang Child has not been mentioned for a long time.
At that time, he was almost the same as the current Jiang Chengxuan, with unrivaled strength in the same realm.
Even if he faced a False Infant cultivator, his single Xuan Yang Sword would be able to defeat or even severely injure him.
Nowadays, when such a person reappeared, it instantly caused many of the Cao Family’s old men to recall many bad memories.
Then he saw Cao Xiuchun, who was also at the False Infant Realm, suddenly say in an icy tone:
“Everyone, back then, there was something about that Xuan Yang True Lord, I’m sure many of you here should be very clear about it, right?
Do you all still want to see a second Xuan Yang True Lord appear again?”
As he said this, Cao Xiu Chun’s tone of voice instantly took on a touch of hidden killing aura.
“Moreover, as far as I know, that Jiang Chengxuan’s daoist couple, Shen Ruyan, is by no means an easy person to deal with, and perhaps, is the same existence as that Jiang Chengxuan.
In that case, that would be the third Xuan Yang True Lord.
And wait until they really grow up, dare to ask all of you, at that time, you and I can still how to hold them?
Are you going to continue to watch the rise of the second Hidden Sword Palace?”
As soon as his words fell, the expressions of many people present couldn’t help but change.
Obviously, everyone had thought of the consequences of that situation.
Some people, such as Cao Xiuyang, Cao Changlie, Cao Changqing, as well as Cao Xuanguang, even had undisguised killing intent in their eyes.
Just then, he heard Cao Xiuyang say, ”What Brother Xiuchun said is very true, back then, our Cao Family, it was because we let that Xuan Yangzi grow up.
Not only did he kill my Cao Clan members, but he also firmly suppressed my Cao Clan.
If this time, we really let that Jiang Clan couple grow up again, there is no guarantee that my Cao Clan will not experience what happened back then.”
These words of his were once again recognized by many people present.
Many people felt that while the Jiang couple had yet to grow up, the Cao family should concentrate most of their strength and eliminate them in one fell swoop.
At this time, no one cared anymore if Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were really the murderers.
Because whether they were or not, it wouldn’t affect their Cao Family’s determination to destroy each other.
However, just at this moment, the contemporary Cao Family Head, Cao Changfeng, was suddenly speaking out:
“Gentlemen, I admit that what you all just said does have so much truth to it.
But have you guys ever thought that people like the Jiang Clan couple and their likes would really have no one behind them?”
With a single sentence, it instantly caused some of the people who were still a bit hot-blooded to immediately calm down.
Yeah.
Such as the Jiang Clan couple, how could there really be no backers behind them?
Thinking back to that year, even that Xuan Yangzi wasn’t completely unprotected.
It was not until this time that a group of Cao family members suddenly realized that they seemed to lack a truly adequate understanding of that Jiang couple and the Jiang family they were in.
At this moment, they heard Family Head Cao Changfeng continue:
“I don’t deny the decision you just made.
However, I feel that before that, do you and I need to conduct some investigation into the two of them, first?
Especially at this critical moment when our Old Ancestor, is currently in seclusion.
If we disturb them hastily, I’m afraid that it will lead to the old man’s and their wrath.”
And this, was also one of the main reasons why he had just said those words.
If he wanted to deal with the Jiang Clan couple, he would inevitably have to ask the old ancestor to take action at that time.
And right now at this time, the Old Ancestor happened to be in seclusion, and for a while, it would be difficult for them to invite him.
Most importantly, if they wanted to invite the Old Ancestor to make a move, they would have to have a sufficient reason, as well as a specific understanding of the other party.
Otherwise, when the time comes to ask a question, being chastised by the old ancestor is small, by the old ancestor that you can’t be used, there is no ability to plan things, that is a big deal.
Seeing that Cao family head Cao Changfeng had mentioned their own old ancestor, Cao Xiuchun and Cao Xiuyang and the others, although they felt that if they delayed like this, it was inevitable that there might be some variables.
But for a while, they couldn’t find any good reasons to refute the other party, so they could only agree to the other party’s proposal for the time being, and carry out a detailed investigation on the Jiang couple first.
On the side of the Cao’s Immortal Clan, they were discussing about the matter of Jiang Chengxuan and his wife.
Cangnan Domain, Hongyan Canyon.
This was the place where the Zheng and Shu countries met, and it was also known as the Red Poison Canyon because of the perennial presence of red filamentous, willow-like poisonous mist.
If the average cultivator enters this place without corresponding treasures to protect his body, in less than a moment or three, his body will turn into pus and die.
However, it is in such a place.
At the moment, there are several cultivators wearing black cloaks, surrounded by rich devilish gas, eerie atmosphere, are holding a completely made of white bone disk, constantly to the depths of the red canyon.
Those red silk-like, willow-like red poisonous mist fell on their bodies, but all of them were absorbed by the white bone disk in their hands.
Look closely, in the interior of those white bone discs, slowly seems to have a wisp of blood-like color in the winding flow, let a person shudder.
“I say seven stars old ghost, you this take us, in the end how much longer to go?
So many of us have followed you, and we’ve already made several consecutive transit stops.
After we finish this time, we won’t have to continue to the next place, right?”
At this time, among the crowd of people wearing black cloaks, there was suddenly a youth with a demonic face who raised his eyes to look at an old man in front of him with an old face, green light radiating from his eyes, and his whole body exuding an eerie and evil aura.
This person was precisely the Seven Star Old Ghost that the demonic youth had just spoken of.
If there were cultivators from the Starlight Sect here, or if Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were here, then they would recognize him at once.
In front of them, this old man with a pale face and a strange and evil aura emanating from his body was the former Jindan Elder of the Starlight Sect.
Seven Star Realist.
At this moment, when he heard the words of that demonic youth, he couldn’t help but reveal a sinister smile on his pale face.
Then he saw him turn around and nodded slightly at that demonic youth, then said in a hoarse and low voice:
“Fellow Illusory Demon Fellow Daoist, don’t be impatient, this is already our last location, and can also be said to be our final destination.
When we arrive at the deepest part of this place, combined with our previous efforts, the result will definitely not disappoint you all.”
