Chapter Eighty-Three: Who Can Stop Him?
A man in white clothes from a ancient and noble family, the Jiang family, named Jiang Yifei, as his name suggests, with a spirit like jade, wearing white clothes that surpass snow, transcending the mundane world.
He didn't say much about Old Man Jiang Zhe's past, but still managed to glean quite a bit of useful information. It turned out that Old Man Jiang's father, Jiang Zhe, had left the Jiang family many years ago and never returned, with some unknown events having occurred, seemingly related to the main branch of the family.
"How could Grandfather Jiang Zhe have passed away fifty years ago when he was supposed to live a long life?" This was something that Jiang Yifei couldn't quite understand.
"When he passed away, he coughed up a lot of blood." Old Man Jiang brought up the past again, but didn't seem overly sentimental. Some things will fade away slowly with the passage of time.
"I see." Jiang Yifei didn't say much more, just nodded his head, as if he had understood the underlying situation.
Next to him was a beautiful young girl named Jiang Cai Xuan, with a slender figure, a delicate neck and a clear complexion. As the daughter of the Jiang family, she exuded an aura that gave people a sense of being unapproachable.
However, she was very fond of Little Tingting and didn't have any airs about her. She held Little Tingting's hand from time to time, asking this and that in a gentle tone.
That arrogant young man was named Jiang Yichen, although he knew the identities of Old Man Jiang and Little Tingting, but he wasn't very enthusiastic, still with a cool expression.
"Come with us back to the Jiang family, old sir," said Jiang Cai-xuan in a clear and pleasant voice. "My grandfather has said that the Jiang family owes your family an apology, and no matter what, we must find you and invite you back."
"Never mind, I don't understand those things you said. Your life is too far away from me, we are people of two different worlds. I've already gotten used to everything here..." Old Man Jiang was an ordinary old man who had lived for so many years and experienced many things, he felt that he couldn't fit in with such a family, so he politely declined.
"You're not just thinking about yourself, but also consider Tingting. She's a little princess in the clouds and shouldn't be bullied. What she needs is another kind of life." Jiang Caiyun mentioned Xiaoting's future and persuaded the old man, saying: "You come back with us, the elderly in our family are all very eager for Old Master Jiang Zhe to return to the Jiang family."
"You take Tingting away, I've gotten used to life here and don't want to go anywhere else..."
Xiao Tingting immediately hugged the old man's arm and said: "I'm with Grandpa, wherever Grandpa is, I'll be there."
At this time, Jiang Yifei showed a warm smile, he seemed to like Xiaoting very much, patted Xiaoting's head and said: "The sky here is too small..."
Jiang Yifei was a clever man, he knew that persuading Jiang Laobo would have little effect, only by letting him see the extraordinary power of the Jiang family might be able to change his mind. He stood up and said: "First go to the Li family." His words were very calm, but seemed to have a strange magical power, the beasts outside all roared, a bloody aura spread out, and all the knights burst out with a strong desire for battle.
Jiang Yifei's expression was calm and composed, with the golden qilin following closely behind him. He slowed down his pace and walked alongside Old Man Jiang, while everyone else kept a distance from them.
Everyone was on foot, walking towards the Li family's residence, with Xiaoting nervously holding onto Lao Ren and Ye Fan's hands, surrounded by a crowd of people who were treating her like a precious treasure, making her feel somewhat uneasy. At this moment, Jiang Yifei and Jiang Caiyun walked alongside them, standing on either side but not in the center.
Everyone on the street was extremely shocked, seeing Old Ginger and Little Tingting being guarded like this, they all showed an unbelievable expression, many people trembled with fear, afraid of those fierce beasts, and retreated to both sides of the street.
"What's going on? Does Old Man Jiang know these people?"
"Look at those monsters, they all seem to be able to fly and escape, how did Old Ginger get involved with these people?"
The poor old ginger finally turned his luck around, good people will always have a good reward.
"This is going to be a big trouble for the Li family, they seem to be heading towards the Li's house."
"Alright, it's been so many years, finally someone is going to take over the Li family."
……
On both sides of the street, more and more people gathered. Although everyone was very scared and didn't dare to get close, they still showed excited and agitated expressions, following from a distance, moving towards the Li's house.
When Old Man Jiang arrived at the Li family's gate, he was somewhat hesitant. Jiang Yifei saw this and directly supported him as they ascended the steps, saying: "Don't mention a small Li family, even if it were the imperial palace of the strongest nation in Donghuang, no one would dare to block our way."
Bang
In front of them, a pair of crimson gates suddenly burst into flight, as if a massive hammer had smashed down on top of it.
Inside, there was a sudden commotion, and shouts of scolding could be heard from the gatehouse.
"Who did it?"
"How dare you come to the Li's house and act so recklessly, you're asking for death!"
……
Dozens of people rushed out, each one ferocious, but when they saw the dozens of fierce beasts, they suddenly froze, their curses swallowed back, speechless, with a terrified look on their faces, quickly turning to run away.
"Look at you, what are you afraid of? Our Li family has cultivators." A servant who received the report came out scolding, "Damn it, who ate the guts of a leopard and dared to cause trouble in the Li family, don't they know that many immortal masters are temporarily staying here?"
"Bad guy!" The manager had just walked out, and Xiaoting immediately took a few steps back, clearly intimidated by this person.
"You..." The manager also became afraid after walking out, the Golden Qilin, the Five-Colored Beast, and the Divine Deer with vertical pupils, he had never heard of or seen such things before, and was immediately stunned.
"Is this a bad person?"
"Yes, he led people to rob our wine house and beat grandfather until he spat blood." Such a thing was said by Little Ting with childish words, which made people feel even more indignant.
Jiang Yifei waved his hand, and immediately a knight stepped forward, pressing towards the official.
"You... what are you going to do? This is the Li family's place, several immortal masters are inside, we can't let you cause trouble here!" He shouted loudly, his face stern and pale, continuously backing away.
"Don't make a move here, lest you scare the child." Jiang Yifei was meticulous in his thoughts, fearing that the bloody scene would frighten Little Tingting.
"Yes!"
The knight in full armor grabbed the attendant's collar and threw him out directly. A flash of green light flashed, and another knight rode a fierce beast into the air, wrapping the attendant around him and rushing out of the town in an instant.
"Oh my god, it can fly!"
"It can really fly!"
"That fierce beast is actually running in the sky, it's too unbelievable."
In the distance, those onlookers all revealed shocked expressions, their mouths agape, with faces full of stunned looks.
Xiao Tingting's mouth also opened into an "O" shape, and she stood on tiptoe looking up at the distant sky.
Jiang Cai Xuan revealed a smile, crouched down and said: "Do you want to have such a precious beast, flying back and forth in the sky every day?"
Xiao Tingting subconsciously nodded, but quickly thought of something and tightly hugged the old man's arm, shaking her head: "I want to be with Grandpa."
Jiang Cai Xuan did not expect that Xiao Ting Ting had actually seen through her intentions, so she didn't continue to entice or persuade her.
Before long, a green shadow appeared in the sky, and the departing knight rode an alien beast back, landed down, with a strand of hair wrapped around his hand, with some bloodstains on it.
Next to him, Ye Fan was extremely shocked. The knights of the Jiang family seemed to be incredibly powerful, and their strength was difficult to estimate. He felt a surge of combat power from those people.
The crowd continued to move forward, with the onlookers following behind, wanting to see for themselves how the evil people of the Li family would be brought to justice.
"Who dares to intrude upon the Li household and cause trouble?" Just then, several middle-aged men dressed in silk and satin, along with a few elderly men, emerged, their faces filled with anger.
"Is that Old Ginger?! It's obvious they still hadn't grasped the situation, and upon seeing Old Man Jiang in the courtyard, they immediately shouted: "Who let you in? Get out!"
"Second Master, please keep your voice down, what are those things behind us?" a servant whispered.
That person only then noticed the strange beasts outside the gate, and immediately became flustered, frightened to the point of retreating repeatedly, saying: "Quickly go invite those immortal masters out."
Jiang Cai Xuan's beautiful face turned cold, saying: "A small family, with only a few people who slightly understand cultivation, dares to bully the weak and tyrannize the countryside. Truly ignorant of life and death."
She waved her hand lightly, and everyone flew out like fallen leaves, crashing into the wall, falling to the ground and unable to get up again. These were all important figures of the Li family, wailing in agony.
A flash of light, two figures rushed out and arrived at the front yard. It was the two people from the Li family who knew how to cultivate. When they saw the situation in front of them, their faces all changed color.
"What kind of people are you, what have we done to offend you, why did you barge into my Li family and hurt someone?" These two men were around 27 or 28 years old, both shocked and angry, but dared not to erupt.
"You're not even worthy of knowing." Jiang Cai Xuan sneered.
Jiang Yifei calmly asked: "Wasn't it you who killed Tingting's parents?"
"What... what are you talking about? Don't spout nonsense!" The two men's faces changed drastically, and seeing Old Man Jiang surrounded by the crowd, they felt a chill in their hearts.
"Who are you talking about?" A knight walked out, his eyes as sharp as a knife, and suddenly appeared in front of him. With two crisp sounds, he directly sent the two flying out. Two blood-red palm prints appeared on the faces of the Li family's two people, and they swelled up instantly.
They were suddenly shocked and angry, covering their faces and retreating, saying: "Friends, don't be too excessive, we are disciples of the Yunxia Cave Heaven, several immortal masters are sitting in our mansion!"
"Immortal Master? What a big tone! We are just about to go to the Smoke and Cloud Cave Heaven for a trip, let's have your so-called Immortal Master lead the way."
