Chapter 12998 Are all the men in the Jiang family dead?
After saying this, Jiang Lianheng strode out of the conference room, his back looking extremely firm and resolute.
He knew that this trip would mean that the fate of himself and the Jiang family would depend on the Ji family. But now that things had come to this, he had no way out and could only give it a try to have a chance of survival.
On the way to the Ji family's residence, Jiang Lianheng felt mixed emotions. He was full of anticipation and anxiety about the upcoming negotiations, and he was also full of worries and concerns about the future of the Jiang family.
But he knew that he could not fall down, because he was the head of the Jiang family and the spiritual pillar of everyone. He had to be strong and brave, and he was willing to give everything for the glory and future of the Jiang family.
But at this time, the atmosphere in the Jiang family was as if doomsday had come. People were in panic, and the air was filled with despair.
Family members either fled in panic, trying to escape from their collapsing home, or died, becoming innocent victims of the disaster. The once prosperous Jiang family was now like a wasteland swept by a strong wind, in ruins and in complete chaos.
Looking at this scene, even the most indifferent bystander couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh: even the Jiang family, one of the seven major families in the East China Sea, could not escape the shackles of fate when facing such a powerful and cruel enemy like Ling Xiao, and fell into such a desperate situation.
Inside the hall, those normally arrogant Tongtian Realm masters were like frightened birds, shrinking back. Their eyes were filled with fear and helplessness, and they could only silently guard their weak vitality, fearing that they would become the next victim if they were not careful.
Even though there were bursts of shrill screams coming from outside, they could only endure the shock and anxiety in their hearts, grit their teeth, and dare not make any rash moves. Because they knew that at this critical moment, preserving strength and waiting for the opportunity was the only way to survive.
Jiang Zhan, the leader of the secret guards who once competed with Jin Yan, Ling Xiao and other strong men, was now in an unprecedented predicament. His injuries had not yet healed, and every breath was accompanied by severe pain.
Even so, he still held on, staring ahead with a sharp gaze, as if ready to face new challenges at any time. However, reason told him that he was no longer able to fight. He could only silently endure the pain, his heart filled with worry and helplessness about the future of his family.
Thus, the entire Jiang family fell into a long wait. This wait was filled with fear and anxiety of death, as if every second was approaching the inevitable end. The hearts of the family members were filled with despair and struggle. They didn't know when this wait would end, and they didn't know what their fate would be.
This kind of suffering is just like the moment when a death row prisoner is waiting for execution, which makes people feel miserable and unbearable. However, they have to persist, because only in this way can they find a glimmer of hope in despair.
"Commander... help... help..." The desperate cry echoed in the empty hall, with a hint of reluctance and pleading, but it stopped abruptly. A blood-soaked secret guard seemed to have struggled from the edge of hell, his eyes were full of desire for life, but he was ultimately unable to escape the shackles of fate.
A cold light flashed, and the sharp sword was like the scythe of the god of death, ruthlessly cutting off the source of his life. His head rolled down, and blood splattered, staining the cold marble floor red, and also staining the hearts of everyone present red.
Ling Xiao, the feared existence, was now standing leisurely at the entrance of the hall. His figure appeared exceptionally tall in the dim light, and his eyes revealed a kind of indifference that looked down on everything.
He chuckled, and his laughter was full of ridicule and disdain for the Jiang family's top brass: "Haha, the Jiang family's top brass, it turns out you're all a bunch of cowards who only know how to hide in the dark and are afraid of death. You let your men go to die, but you don't even have the courage to step out of this door. It's really ridiculous."
His words were like a sharp blade, cutting into the hearts of the Jiang family. In the hall, everyone's faces instantly became extremely ugly, some were angry, some were afraid, and some were deeply desperate.
Their eyes were filled with complex emotions, including hatred for Ling Xiao, worry about the fate of their family, and self-blame for their own incompetence.
"Asshole! How dare you insult my Jiang family like this!" An old man finally couldn't hold back his anger and stood up roaring. He was one of the four generals of the Jiang family, a master of the Tongtian realm with profound cultivation, but at this moment, he could only curl up in this hall, watching his clansmen fall one by one, but he was powerless to do anything.
This humiliation and annoyance almost drove him crazy. His eyes were red, as if they were about to spit out fire, and he glared at Ling Xiao, his voice full of resentment and anger. However, no matter how angry he was, he could not change the situation in front of him, and could only vent his anger helplessly.
"Oh? There are actually men in the Jiang family who dare to stand up. I was really wrong. I thought there were only a bunch of weak women left here." Ling Xiao's laughter was filled with obvious mockery and disdain. His eyes were like sharp blades, passing over everyone in the Jiang family one by one, as if looking for the next person to laugh at.
The old man's face instantly turned pale when he heard this, and he trembled all over, as if his most sensitive nerves had been touched. He could no longer endure this humiliation, and his eyes were burning with rage, as if he wanted to devour Ling Xiao. He roared and rushed out of the hall like a wounded beast, vowing to fight Ling Xiao to the death.
However, at this critical moment, a steady and powerful voice suddenly sounded, shaking the old man's footsteps like thunder: "Stop!" It was Jiang Zhan, the leader of the Jiang family's secret guards. Although his voice was cold, it revealed an unquestionable majesty.
The old man stopped and turned to look at Jiang Zhan, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was obviously extremely excited. He glared at Jiang Zhan, as if he wanted to pour out all his dissatisfaction and anger: "What? Do you want me to watch my people being killed and do nothing?"
Jiang Zhan's eyes were like torches, deep and firm. He looked back at the old man coldly and said word by word, "You are already quite old, can't you see that the boy is deliberately trying to provoke you? If you rush out now, you will only play into his hands. Come back and sit down, stay calm, he won't be arrogant for much longer."
Seeing this, Ling Xiao raised his lips to an even more wanton smile. He continued to ruthlessly mock Jiang Zhan: "Haha, Jiang Zhan, ah Jiang Zhan, as the leader of the Jiang family's secret guards, are you really willing to be a coward? Or have you lost your courage as a man and want to be a eunuch without balls? How ridiculous!"
