Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Being scolded sanctimoniously by so many people, the Elders of the Gong Family and the Bai Family’s faces darkened immediately. Their eyes filled with killing intent and rage.
They were “cheated” by Jiang Limu first. Now these cultivators wanted to rob them in the name of saving Xu Que and seeking justice! Anyone treated like this would be p.i.s.sed off.
“Are you tired of life?” Gong Huaping, the Elder of the Gong Family yelled angrily. His formidable pressure was turned into a hurricane, which abruptly swept out from him.
Most cultivators coming from the ancient city were dabblers who planned to fish in muddy waters.
Gong Huaping’s yell contained the powerful strength of cultivators at the Void Training Stage, which knocked down a lot of people and turned them green. Among these people, only a few cultivators at the Infant Transformation Stage and Void Training Stage stood.
Whoos.h.!.+
Just at this moment, dozens of lights approached from the sky; they were so fast that even the sound barrier broke and caused emanating sonic booms.
The expressions of the cultivators planning to kill the Elders of the Gong Family and the Bai Family changed abruptly.
“Oh, no! Retreat!”
“d.a.m.n! How could the people of the three big families come here so soon?”
“All of them are at the Void Training Stage! My G.o.d!”
Before landing, the lights had scared off the rabble with their earth-shattering pressure. Even the powerhouses at the Infant Transformation Stage or the Void Training Stage among the rabble chose to turn around and flee to the ancient city immediately.
“Hum! Sc.u.ms! You can’t get away!” a snort came in from the sky.
After that, a giant light sword dropped down into the crowd from the sky. The entire sword was wrapped with lightnings.
Boom!
The lightning sword exploded and into numerous electric arcs. The tempestuous energy killed many people instantly by ripping them into pieces.
“The Nine Heavens Thunder Shadow Sword?”
“Isn’t it the unique skill of Jiang Yushu, the Grand Elder of the Jiang Family? d.a.m.n! How could he be here?”
“Run!”
Several powerhouses at the Void Training Stage among the cultivators coming from the ancient city were greatly terrified. The next moment, they turned around and dashed toward the ancient city directly.
Everyone else had been killed in the explosion; they disappeared from this world without leaving a drop of blood behind.
Bang!
At this moment, the dozens of figures in the sky landed on the ground and appeared in front of the people of the Gong Family and the Bai Family.
Gong Huaping and the Elder of the Bai Family led the rest people to greet the newcomers, for powerhouses of the two big families were also among those dozens of people.
Apparently, they were powerhouses at the Void Training Stage of the three big families who were garrisoning the neighboring areas. After receiving the Message Delivering Spell, they rushed over immediately.
However, to their surprise, Jiang Yushu, the Grand Elder of the Jiang Family was also in this area. He’d come here to help personally.
After landing on the ground, the people didn’t waste their time.
“Where is the miraculous item?”
The Elders of the Gong Family and the Bai Family turned their eyes at the people of the Jiang Family immediately; they wore cold expressions. “The miraculous item? You should ask the Jiang Family what their plan is!”
The powerhouses of the Gong Family and the Bai Family who had come here to protect the miraculous item frowned. “What happened?”
The powerhouses of the Jiang Family were also stunned. “What do you mean?”
“Heh-heh, are you pretending to be innocent?” Gong Huaping sneered disdainfully.
“Gong Huaping, stop being so cryptic! Where is the miraculous item?” Jiang Yushu asked. Then, he looked around and furrowed his eyebrows. “Where is Jiang Limu? Wasn’t he with you?”
Hearing that, Gong Huaping and the Elder of the Bai Family were immediately p.i.s.sed off.
“Jiang Yushu, are you still going to act innocent now?” Gong Huaping said angrily.
The Elder of the Bai Family snorted, “Do you dare say you don’t know Jiang Limu has escaped together with the miraculous item?”
“What?”
All at once, dozens of powerhouses at the Void Training Stage blanched, including Jiang Yushu.
People of the Gong Family and the Bai Family were infuriated; they immediately surrounded Jiang Yushu and his underlings.
After all, the miraculous item had been jointly purchased by the three big families. The Jiang Family had decided to take exclusive possession of it, which was totally unacceptable to the other two families.
“It’s impossible! How could Jiang Limu act so absurdly?” Jiang Yushu frowned and shook his head. No one could tell that he was secretly pleased. The old stubborn Jiang Limu really did a d.a.m.n good job this time!
“Heh, Jiang Yushu, is the Jiang Family going to start a war with the Gong Family and the Bai Family?” Gong Huaping smiled coldly.
“We haven’t figured out the entire issue,” Jiang Yushu replied calmly. “Why are you declaring the Jiang Family guilty so quickly? I think it’s you who wants to start a war!”
Gong Huaping immediately started shouting filthy words. “You motherf*cker!” He had been holding back his anger until now—Jiang Yushu’s reaction caused him to burst.
Gong Huaping had reached the end of his forbearance—he was so angry that even he was confronting Jiang Yushu, the powerful Grand Elder of the Jiang Family. After all, the argument was related to a miraculous item.
The Elder of the Bai Family coldly said, “It is quite clear now. Jiang Limu deliberately escaped with the miraculous item! If the Jiang Family can’t provide a satisfactory solution, the Bai Family will fight to the last person!”
The next moment, the intense intent to kill gushed from the powerhouses at the Void Training Stage of the Gong Family and the Bai Family.
Jiang Yushu’s facial expression changed quickly and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He had been informed of the magical ability of the miraculous item through the Message Delivering Spell. Therefore, when he knew Jiang Limu stole away the miraculous item, his heart filled with praise.
However, after pondering it carefully, he figured that if the Jiang Family got into a war with the Gong Family and the Bai Family over the miraculous item, the loss would outweigh the gain.
The Jiang Family was still developing and couldn’t afford the loss caused by this kind of great battle. Moreover, once the war broke out among the three big families, their positions in the East Continent would suffer because of the damage from the war.
Finally, Jiang Yushu decided to make a temporary compromise and prepared to call Jiang Limu back.
“Don’t worry. It’s just a miraculous item. The Jiang Family won’t take exclusive possession of it. You can wait here a moment, and I will send a Message Delivering Spell to Jiang Limu so that he can come here to confront you. As for you, Gong Huaping, you will answer for your filthy words in the future.”
If Jiang Limu had the miraculous item, he should definitely hand it over. The miraculous item would be shared by the three families, which would be a harmonious end for everyone.
As for the owners.h.i.+p of the miraculous item in the future, that was still to be determined!
…
…
While this was happening, Xu Que, Liu Jingning, and b.u.t.tface had already put a great distance between themselves and the ancient city.
On the way, Xu Que told everything to Liu Jingning and b.u.t.tface, who were dumbfounded by what they heard. The miraculous item taken out by Xu Que had been later taken back from Jiang Limu without being detected by the others, even Jiang Limu himself.
My Gos.h.!.+ This little brat is really good at scheming!
Liu Jingning was speechless for a long time and stared at Xu Que in surprise.
“Little brat. According to what you said, the old man of the Jiang Family is doomed, right?” b.u.t.tface asked.
“That’s for sure. However, what I’m concerned with is whether or not a war can be started between the three big families!” Xu Que smiled faintly.
Liu Jingning didn’t say a word but looked at Xu Que in quiet thought.
A war among the three big families would be a catastrophic earthquake in the East Continent.
Many lives would inevitably be lost.
The only reason for him to do so was to support Jiang Hongyan by reducing the bounty pressure from the three big families.
Horrible!
He is too horrible!
“Little brat, what are you going to do next?” b.u.t.tface asked.
Looking at the dim light in the night sky, Xu Que smiled. “Next, it’s time to find Hongyan!”
After saying that, he turned to Liu Jingning with a faint smile on his face.
Liu Jingning stepped back immediately and shook her head. “Little Queque, I promised Hongyan that I would never take you to her!”
“Don’t worry. I won’t ask you to lead the way. I have many ways to find a person!”
“What will you do?” Liu Jingning doubtfully raised her eyebrows.
Xu Que took off one of his shoes confidently and spoke with a faint smile. “I will definitely use the unique skill of Shui Yu of the Exploding Heavens Faction—Give Direction by Throwing a Shoe!”
After that, Xu Que threw the shoe he held high in the air!
