Chapter 13007 This cunning guy

Jiang Lianheng's face changed slightly when he heard this, and he looked a little embarrassed. He knew very well that Jiang Zhan was dissatisfied with Ji Hong, and he also understood that as the head of the Jiang family, he had the responsibility to safeguard the dignity and interests of the family.

He hurriedly stepped forward and said sincerely, "Second Uncle, please rest assured. Although Elder Ji Hong acts rashly, his strength is unquestionable. Today's incident may be a profound lesson for him. In the future, he will be more cautious and will no longer underestimate the enemy. Our Jiang family and the Ji family have been friends for generations. We need to rely on his strength to resist foreign enemies together."

Jiang Zhan nodded gently upon hearing this, with a complex look in his eyes. He knew very well that what Jiang Lianheng said was true, Ji Hong was indeed powerful and an indispensable ally of the Jiang family. However, he hoped that Ji Hong could learn from his mistakes and become more mature and stable, so as to better protect the Jiang family from threats.

"I hope so." Jiang Zhan's words revealed a bit of helplessness and expectation. He knew that things in the world were unpredictable, so he could only do his best. Then, he sighed heavily, as if to release the worries and fatigue in his heart.

Looking around, Jiang Zhan's eyes became firm and decisive. He realized that the most important thing at the moment was to ensure the safety of the remaining tribesmen.

"Let's go back quickly, who knows what Ling Xiao is up to." Jiang Zhan's voice was deep and powerful, with unquestionable majesty. He knew Ling Xiao's cunning and cruelty, and if he fell into his trap, the consequences would be disastrous.

Therefore, he had to lead his people to evacuate quickly and stay away from this dangerous place.

something unexpected may happen any time.

As soon as the voice fell, a sudden change broke the silence in the air. A Jiang family Tongtian realm expert was dragged into the depths of the dense forest by a powerful force without anyone being prepared. Then, a shrill scream pierced the sky, making people shudder.

"Hurry up! Get out of here!" Jiang Zhan's face instantly turned pale, and he yelled, his voice full of anxiety and anger. He knew that it was futile to save the strong man at this time, and it would only put more people in danger. Therefore, he made a decision without hesitation and led the tribe to evacuate quickly.

Under Jiang Zhan's command, the Jiang family members fled in all directions like frightened birds, trying to get away from this land of death as quickly as possible. Their hearts were filled with fear and anxiety, but more of a desire to survive and loyalty to the family.

At this moment, Ling Xiao was standing on a high ground not far away, watching all this coldly.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a playful smile, as if he was quite satisfied with Jiang Zhan's decisiveness and the panic of his tribesmen. "This Jiang Zhan is a clever guy. If he had been a little later, I could have killed a few more people." He whispered to himself, with both admiration and regret in his tone.

Then, he waved his hand, signaling Jin Yan and Ling Bi to follow. The three of them flashed and disappeared from the spot like ghosts, quietly entering the depths of the strange island.

During these few days, Ling Xiao's heart seemed to be pulled by an invisible thread and tightly tied to a corner of the mysterious area, where the people he cared about most were - his mother Jiang Xiruo and his aunt Jiang Xiqing, as well as Ali and Tongtong.

Although he was burning with endless hatred for the Jiang family and vowed to kill those who had hurt him and his family, this deep family affection prevented him from completely immersing himself in the flames of revenge.

So he made a decision, put down the sword in his hand, and set out on his journey home, returning to the mysterious area which was full of unknowns and dangers but was also his spiritual haven.

When he stepped into that familiar yet mysterious territory, every step seemed to step on his heartstrings, playing a song of longing for his loved ones.

Finally, in front of a hidden camp, he saw those familiar and warm faces. They were recovering from their injuries and preparing for the upcoming unknown challenges, but the moment they saw Ling Xiao, all their fatigue and tension turned into smiles.

"Xiao'er, you're back!" Jiang Xiruo's voice was filled with surprise and excitement. Jiang Xiruo hurried forward and looked him up and down, confirming that Ling Xiao was not injured. Finally, she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay. I've recovered a lot. Let's go to the Jiang family next time. I'll go with you."

She held Ling Xiao's hand tightly, as if she was afraid that he would disappear again. Her eyes were full of love and worry for her son, but more of it was a kind of strength and perseverance, which was the unique strength of a mother.

Jiang Xiqing stood aside, her eyes showing both joy for Ling Xiao's return and concern for his next move.

"How is the Jiang family?" Jiang Xiqing's voice was filled with a hint of anxiety and curiosity. Her eyes were fixed on Ling Xiao, as if she wanted to get the final judgment on the fate of that family from him.

Ling Xiao's lips curled up into a cold smile, and his tone was filled with unquestionable certainty: "Almost destroyed! Jiang Yuan, the once invincible ancestor of the Jiang family, has now become a ghost under the claws of Jin Yan."

"As soon as the news came out, the Jiang family was in a panic, like a frightened bird. Most of the clan members fled, leaving only a group of diehards, numbering only a few hundred. Although they tried to turn the tide, they were ultimately like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, unable to hold up the overall situation."

At this point, Ling Xiao's eyes flashed with a complex emotion, with a sneer at the Jiang family's decline, and sympathy for those innocent people involved in the dispute. "And in this desperate moment, they chose to ask the Ji family for help, trying to use external forces to save the defeat."

Jiang Xiruo's face instantly turned serious when she heard this. She frowned, as if she was thinking about something important. "The Ji family... that's not good!" Her voice was low and powerful, revealing her deep fear of the Ji family's strength.

Seeing this, Ling Xiao couldn't help but ask curiously: "What's the matter? Could it be that the Ji family is much stronger than the Jiang family?" There was a hint of inquiry in his tone, and it was obvious that he didn't know very well about the power distribution of the seven major families in the East China Sea.

Jiang Xiruo nodded and said in a deep voice: "Of course. Although the seven major families in the East China Sea are located in the same sea area, their strengths are very different. The Jiang family was once glorious, but now it has declined to this point, and its ranking has fallen to the bottom, becoming a laughing stock in the eyes of everyone."

"But the Ji family is different. Not only do they have a deep foundation, but they also have many experts in charge. Among the seven major families, they are either firmly ranked first or closely behind, ranking second. Their strength is far beyond the reach of the Jiang family. Therefore, once the Ji family intervenes in this matter, we must be more cautious to avoid falling into their trap."
