Chapter 13023 The whole army attacks
"If he was really a weakling, how could he have injured me so badly so easily? Even now, I don't know how I got hurt and my arm is broken."
Ji Jiao paused here, his eyes flashing with deep fear of the black-robed man's strength, but also with a hint of confidence in the family's strength.
"I guess the reason why the black-robed man broke his promise is that he was aware of the full mobilization of our Ji family to deal with this matter. He may have mistakenly thought that the return of all the strong men of our Ji family was a tough nut that he was unwilling to face. After all, no matter how strong he is, he is still alone. In our Ji family, there are as many as nine strong men who have entered the Tianhe realm. This power is enough to make anyone who dares to challenge the majesty of our Ji family tremble."
After a brief silence, Ji Tianyan finally broke the solemn atmosphere in the hall. His voice was steady and powerful, and every word seemed to contain unquestionable authority:
"The Huang Xiangu of the Empress Palace is an expert in formations, and her skills are well known to the world. Moreover, the Empress Palace and Ling Xiao have been grudged for a long time, and the hatred has not yet been resolved. I have made up my mind. Please ask Huang Xiangu to contact the Empress Palace immediately and ask them to send more experts to assist us. We must ensure that this operation is foolproof."
After saying this, his eyes unconsciously swept across the people present, and finally stopped on Jiang Zhan.
Seeing this, Jiang Zhan stood up without hesitation and volunteered, "Don't worry, master. I will go to the Huang family and visit Huang Xiangu in person to convey your intentions." His tone revealed a kind of determination and firmness, as if he was proving with his actions that even if the Jiang family is no longer what it used to be, he, Jiang Zhan, can still do his part for the Ji family.
Ji Tianyan glanced at Jiang Zhan indifferently, with a complex look in his eyes that showed both approval of Jiang Zhan's initiative to volunteer and a hint of imperceptible disdain and indifference.
In his opinion, the decline of the Jiang family is a foregone conclusion. The Jiang family has almost been eliminated from the list of the seven major families. Jiang Zhan and Jiang Lianheng are just two lonely people who have lost the protection of their families. Their past glory has long become a thing of the past.
Therefore, his attitude towards Jiang Zhan could no longer be as polite and respectful as before.
However, these subtle changes in emotions were skillfully hidden by Ji Tianyan under his calm face. He just nodded slightly, agreeing to Jiang Zhan's request, and then continued to arrange the follow-up matters.
Seeing this, Jiang Lianheng also stood up quickly and stood side by side with Jiang Zhan, preparing to go to the Huang family together. Although he felt a little helpless and bitter about Ji Tianyan's attitude, he was more worried and expectant about the future of the Jiang family.
He knew that at this moment, he and Jiang Zhan had to unite to gain a glimmer of hope for the Jiang family in this precarious situation. So, the two looked at each other, and without saying anything, they turned around and left tacitly, embarking on the road to the Huang family.
On the way, the wind was a bit cool, gently brushing the sleeves of the two people, as if whispering unknown secrets. Jiang Lianheng's pace gradually slowed down, and finally stopped beside Jiang Zhan, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes.
"Uncle, the Jiang family, that once glorious family, now only has us two uncles and nephews left, and it exists in name only. I often wonder if it still makes sense to stay here. Perhaps, we should leave the Demon Suppression Mansion and go to the Soul Suppression Mansion. There is a new beginning there, and we can use our own strength to revive the Jiang family."
There was a barely perceptible tremor in his voice, which was a remembrance of the past and uncertainty about the future.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhan's face instantly turned gloomy. He suddenly stopped, turned around and stared at Jiang Lianheng, his eyes burning with rage.
"You go if you want to. What I, Jiang Zhan, hate most in my life is betrayal and evasion! Ling Xiao has brought my Jiang family to this point. I will not be a human being if I don't take revenge! Besides, how do you know that we can't defeat him? The Ji family, the Huang family, and the Empress' Palace, these forces combined are enough to shake the entire continent. How can a mere Ling Xiao resist them? I, Jiang Zhan, don't believe in fate, and I don't believe that there are mountains that we can't climb or obstacles that we can't overcome in this world!"
Every word he said hit Jiang Lianheng's heart like a heavy hammer, making it impossible to refute or ignore his firm belief.
Jiang Lianheng was silent. He looked at Jiang Zhan's resolute back with mixed feelings. He understood that his second uncle's stubbornness and perseverance were his lifelong beliefs and pursuits.
Although he also longed for revenge, the cruelty of reality forced him to make a more rational choice.
His two sons, innocent lives, both died because of Ling Xiao. How could he let go of this hatred so easily? However, he also knew that with their current strength, a head-on confrontation would only be like a moth flying into a flame, bringing about their own destruction.
Finally, Jiang Lianheng made a decision. He sighed softly, turned around and walked in the opposite direction of Jiang Zhan. Every step seemed so heavy, as if he was carrying the fate of the entire Jiang family. He felt both unwilling and relieved.
What made him unwilling was that he could not avenge his sons personally; what made him relieved was that he chose another path, a path that might be more difficult, but full of hope - leaving the Demon Suppression Mansion and preparing to make a comeback.
Jiang Zhan ignored Jiang Lianheng's choice and continued to fly forward firmly, aiming directly at the Huang family. In his mind, he had only one thought: find Huang Xiangu, unite all the forces that could be united, and vow to tear Ling Xiao into pieces and seek justice for the Jiang family!
……
The Ji family mobilized everyone and set out on the journey to the mysterious island with great momentum. In the team, every member of the Ji family had a solemn look on their faces, with determination and expectation for the unknown challenge in their eyes.
They knew very well that this trip was not only about the family honor, but also an excellent opportunity that could make the Ji family's strength leap forward.
As they walked, Ji Jiao deliberately slowed down his pace, moved closer to Ji Tianyan, lowered his voice, and revealed a bit of caution and worry in his tone: "Master, I have always had a doubt in my heart. If my Ji family is really lucky enough to get the legendary treasure, how should we properly deal with it?"
His eyes followed Ji Tianyan's steps closely, as if he was trying to find the answer from the patriarch's eyes.
Upon hearing this, Ji Tianyan stopped, turned around and looked at Ji Jiao, with a barely perceptible deep light flashing in his eyes.
He spoke slowly, his voice steady and powerful: "Ji Jiao, you asked a good question. But in my opinion, the answer is obvious. Once this kind of treasure that can change fate falls into the hands of my Ji family, it will definitely be a catalyst for my Ji family's rise, allowing our strength to advance by leaps and bounds, and we may even surpass the Empress Palace and become the true overlord of this continent."
At this point, Ji Tianyan's eyes flashed with enthusiasm and longing, as if he had seen the glorious future of the Ji family.
