Chapter 848 - 848 The Confrontation
848 The Confrontation
“Everyone, today, the Tangs, the Jiangs, and Fluttering Blooms will be forming an alliance. We will create a golden age and start an unprecedented era!”
In the depths of the Tang residence, countless guests had already arrived in a large hall. Three people were sitting in the main seats.
One of them was the current head of the Jiangs, Jiang Xuanlei. The other was floating in the air and was the absolute core of the trio. He was dressed in a gorgeous ancient robe, which made him look like a G.o.d. The last was a beautiful woman who looked to be in her thirties. She had an extremely powerful aura and walked with a majestic gait.
None of the guests present dared to look down on her. They all knew that she was the one who held the power of the Tangs. No one dared to look down on her existence.
The Tangs were indeed in danger of being removed from the Eight Greats, but no one could deny that, other than the fact that they didn’t have a Divine expert to keep watch, the Tangs were a formidable force.
If they were backed into a corner, they would have the ability to perish together with any great family or sect.
However, it was also an undeniable fact that there was a crisis. Under such circ.u.mstances, many people supported Jiang Siying’s decision to bring the Tangs to an alliance with the Jiangs and the Fluttering Blooms.
The Tangs couldn’t continue to decline. If it did, it would immediately be divided up by other forces.
Since ancient times, there had been too many examples and lessons like this.
The atmosphere in the entire hall became heated. Everyone began to discuss, but many people revealed a somewhat worried expression. The alliance of the three major forces was of course advantageous to them, but it might not be the same for the other forces.
Many of them were the representatives of the various forces of the Federation Government and the Federation Army. When they saw this scene, they could not help but show some worried expressions.
Back then, the dark age that made people pale with fear was created because the families and forces were too powerful. They even wanted to be above the government.
However, too many things had happened within the Federation. The Federation had been infiltrated too deeply by the various families and sects. They were unable to suppress the alliance.
If the president was still around, he would only need to say one word to dissolve the alliance.
All of a sudden, the guests in the hall began to stir. Many of them received the notification on their terminals and looked at the news in shock.
Chu Yunfan had returned!
These people were all important figures of the Federation. With their strength, they didn’t care about the life and death of ordinary people. But now, Chu Yunfan had the strength that made them care.
A peak-Innate expert who could kill another peak-Innate expert with a single punch would not be looked down upon no matter where he went.
Strength was the foundation of everything.
“How dare he appear here!”
“Does he not want to live anymore?”
“This is going to be a good show. The alliance won’t go smoothly!”
Although everyone’s exclamations were very soft, with so many people exclaiming and discussing, the entire hall began to buzz.
Jiang Siying, who was in the middle of a heated discussion, furrowed her brows because she felt that something was wrong.
Soon, a Jiang expert came and reported everything to her.
“Chu Yunfan! He actually dares to show his face here?!”
Jiang Siying furrowed her brows. Chu Yunfan had come at this time to mess things up, so it was obvious that he was targeting this alliance. By tomorrow, the alliance would have been formed, and Chu Yunfan would not be able to stop it even if he wanted to.
Beside her, the vice-sect master of the Fluttering Blooms heard Jiang Siying’s words and immediately revealed a faint smile, saying, “Interesting. I’ve never seen anyone so eager to rush to their death.”
On the other hand, Jiang Xuanlei’s expression was a lot uglier. He still remembered the scene of Chu Yunfan crippling him with a single punch more than two years ago. Although Chu Yunfan had borrowed the power of a medicinal pill, that battle was still a humiliation that he would never be able to wash away.
It was a huge humiliation.
“Hmph, where does he think he is? A place where he can be impudent? Even with the Chus backing him up, he’s going to die today.”
“We’ll use his life as a sacrifice for our alliance,” Jiang Siying said with a cold smile.
“Let’s go. I want to see how he dies.” Jiang Siying sneered.
Seeing that Jiang Siying had acted on her own initiative, Jiang Xuanlei looked at the vice-sect master of the Fluttering Blooms worriedly, but he saw that the vice-sect master didn’t seem to mind.
The vice-sect master looked at Jiang Siying’s curvaceous back and thought of her astonishingly delicate and fair skin from last night, and his heart burned with pa.s.sion.
He immediately followed after her.
Chu Yunfan barged into the Tangs’ ancestral grounds. He was so fast that even the experts from the Tang and Jiang families couldn’t stop him in time. In just a few moments, he had already reached the front of the alliance ceremony hall.
Many guests stayed far away, not daring to come close.
The Tang and Jiang experts finally caught up and surrounded Chu Yunfan.
“Jiang Siying, you don’t dare to come out?!” Chu Yunfan shouted.
His voice shook the entire square outside the hall.
Immediately after, a lot of people flew out of the main hall. All of them were martial arts masters. Among the three people in the lead, Chu Yunfan recognized Jiang Xuanlei, and although he didn’t know the woman, he could guess her powerful aura even if she wasn’t an ordinary person.
The woman was Jiang Siying.
The remaining person made Chu Yunfan’s heart skip a beat. That man had a power that could truly threaten him.
The man was the vice-sect master Fluttering Blooms.
Chu Yunfan had already guessed the man’s ident.i.ty in a short while. The vice-sect master of the Fluttering Blooms exuded an extremely dangerous aura that only Chu Yunfan could sense.
Clearly, the vice-sect master had just stepped into the Divine Abilities Stage not too long ago. The force being emitted from his body was somewhat uncontrollable.
Of course, ordinary people couldn’t sense it. Only experts at Chu Yunfan’s level could sense it.
“Chu Yunfan, you dare to show up here? Do you know where you are?” Jiang Siying’s eyes were extremely cold when she looked at Chu Yunfan.
“Everyone, this man has killed many people and violated the laws of the Federation. Today, on behalf of the people of the world, the Tangs will kill him.”
Everyone felt that this proclamation was a little ridiculous. The law was the weapon of the ruling cla.s.s, and they were undoubtedly the ruling cla.s.s. They usually didn’t take the laws to heart.
Now, Jiang Siying was using the law to kill Chu Yunfan. But on the surface, it didn’t look like there was anything wrong with this.
“Jiang Siying, do you think you can represent the Tangs?” Chu Yunfan said loudly. “You poisoned your own husband and stole the power of the Tangs. Do you think no one knows?”
Chu Yunfan’s words once again shocked the guests present. When many of them looked at Jiang Siying again, their eyes were filled with fear. She was truly a vicious woman to be able to lay her hands on her husband.
“Chu Yunfan, it’s already come to this, and you still dare to talk nonsense?!”
Jiang Siying naturally wouldn’t admit it.
“I’m talking nonsense?” Chu Yunfan sneered, then turned on the terminal on his wrist and projected the images within.
Everyone took a look and saw that the contents of the projections were actually the higher-ups of the Tangs.
At this time, the guests suddenly realized that this alliance ceremony was such an important occasion, but more than half of the Tangs’ high-ranking officials were not present.
Previously, they thought that the Tangs had split up, but now, they realized that that was not the case. No matter how busy they were, they should not be that busy to attend the ceremony.
Looking at the people in these projections again, the guests were listless. Many of the people within the projection had clearly suffered serious injuries, and it was obvious that they had been subjected to inhuman abuse.
“Jiang Siying, I bet you didn’t expect this. We’ve already found the place where you imprisoned them. Do you still want to deny it? The Tangs will no longer be under your control,” Chu Yunfan said with a sneer.
“Impossible!” Jiang Siying’s eyes widened.
Her first reaction was disbelief. The place where she had locked these people up was airtight. Even if someone had found them, they wouldn’t be able to break in. How could they have been rescued?
Everyone now believed Chu Yunfan’s words, but they hadn’t expected a jailbreak. Among them, the representative of a behemoth like the Chus had actually already known about this matter.
What really surprised them was that Chu Yunfan had the ability to find them and even rescue them. If it was that simple, these high-level members of the Tangs would have been rescued long ago.
“Jiang Siying, I now strip you of your ability to control the Tangs with the authority given to you by the elders’ meeting held by most of the elders. As for the others, only the main culprits will be executed. Their followers will not be punished,” Chu Yunfan said loudly.
This was his real purpose. It wasn’t difficult for him to kill Jiang Siying, but he still had to follow the Tang family’s rules. If he acted rashly, he would only cause endless trouble.
“Bullsh*t! I don’t know where you found this group of people. How dare you pretend to be an elder of the Tangs and mislead the public!” Jiang Siying shouted.
However, the surrounding Tang experts had begun to hesitate, because they could tell that this matter was not false. Moreover, during this period, all kinds of rumors had been spreading.
It was just that they were unable to resist. Now that the Tang elders had been rescued, if it was true, they would be considered traitors.
“Don’t be fooled by him. How could the Tang elders make such a decision? How come I’ve never heard of it?”
At this moment, a rough voice was heard. Everyone saw a tough and stocky man stride onto the scene.
“That’s the second elder of the Tangs, Tang Jingang!”
Many recognized the man with a somewhat ferocious face. He was one of the most important figures within the Tang family, Tang Jingang.
As the Tangs’ second elder, many of the Tang experts who had been wavering began to steady their resolve.
