Chapter 13068 People Want to Take Your Life

But at this moment, Jiang Zhan immediately changed the subject, his tone became cold and resolute, "What a pity, I had no intention of becoming an enemy of the Fuzun Mansion, but today's matter is of great importance, I cannot leave anyone alive. Since you are here, you are destined to not be able to retreat unscathed."

These words were not only a verdict on Long Chen, but also a declaration of his own determination. Jiang Zhan's eyes revealed determination and ruthlessness, as if he was ready to fight to the death with Long Chen and others.

"Second brother, look at this scene, they are clearly going to take your life." Ling Xiao's laughter was somewhat playful and uninhibited, as if the crisis before him was just a trivial game. His eyes moved between Long Chen and Jiang Zhan, flashing with wisdom and insight.

Hearing this, Long Chen curled up a faint smile. That smile was a response to Ling Xiao's teasing, and also revealed his confidence and composure in his own strength.

"The ignorant are fearless. Perhaps in their eyes, I am indeed an opponent that cannot be underestimated." He said softly, and then without moving his body, with just a thought, an illusory and huge dragon claw condensed out of thin air, carrying the power to destroy the world, and suddenly grabbed Jiang Zhan.

Jiang Zhan's face turned pale the moment the dragon claw appeared. He widened his eyes and looked at the giant claw that seemed to be able to tear apart space with disbelief.

Although he tried his best to dodge, in the face of this force, all his struggles seemed so pale and powerless. He could only watch himself being firmly grasped by the dragon claw, unable to move.

"You! How on earth did you do it? How is it possible that you possess such terrifying strength!" Jiang Zhan's exclamation was filled with deep fear and despair. His voice trembled with shock, as if at this moment, all his pride and self-confidence were completely shattered.

A trace of pity flashed in Long Chen's eyes, but it was fleeting, replaced by a kind of detached calmness. "In this world, there are always some powers that are difficult for mortals to achieve." He said softly, without any pride or boasting in his tone, just simply stating a fact.

As Long Chen exerted a little force on his hands, Jiang Zhan's body began to disintegrate, turning into specks of light that dissipated into the air. His soul was also completely crushed at this moment, leaving only a vague black shadow, trying to escape from the mysterious area in the chaos.

However, this final struggle was in vain, because Ling Xiao had already opened his mouth, like an abyss, and swallowed the black shadow easily without any hesitation or mercy.

Ling Xiao is a magic cultivator, and his practice is completely different from the conventional martial arts. Not only is he proficient in the mysteries of magic, he has also inherited many strange and unpredictable soul arts from the legendary Demon Soul King. These soul arts are like ghosts in the dark, which can silently corrode people's hearts and take their lives.

The Heaven-Devouring Demonic Art is his unique skill that he is proud of. This skill enables him to have the ability to devour everything, no matter it is solid matter or illusory soul, nothing can escape from his palm.

Ling Xiao seemed to have a special ability to perceive and control souls. In his eyes, they were no longer high and mighty and difficult to reach, but like delicacies on the table, which he could possess with just a slight twist.

At this moment, Ling Xiao slowly opened his eyes, and those deep eyes seemed to contain endless mysteries and power. He smiled slightly, and that smile was full of confidence in his power. "This soul comes from the Soul-Calming Mansion, a place that was once glorious and mysterious."

He said softly, his tone revealing some memories and emotions of the past, "It seems to have carried too many grievances and escapes, but in the end it still couldn't escape the shackles of fate and died in this Demon Suppression Mansion, leaving only a wisp of unwilling soul attached to Jiang Zhan's body."

Hearing this, Long Chen frowned slightly, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes. He shook his head, as if he felt sorry for the soul's fate, and seemed to laugh at its stupidity and powerlessness.

"There must be something hateful about pitiful people, but such an ending is indeed sad." He whispered, with a hint of sympathy and helplessness in his voice. "And the Jiang family, because of such a change, is destined to decline and fall. This is their fate, and it is also an ending they cannot escape."

"You can't say that." Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, his tone revealing a firmness and indomitable spirit.

"The Jiang family, a family that carries countless glories and history, is not the private property of one person. It does not belong to Jiang Zhan's arrogance, nor should it be tainted by Jiang Lianheng's ambition. The Jiang family, its roots, its soul, are still deeply rooted in this land and have never been severed.

My mother, the tenacious woman, still guards the family's honor; my aunt, her wisdom and gentleness, is an indispensable force for the Jiang family; and the old ancestor who traveled abroad and experienced many hardships, his existence is the eternal hope of the Jiang family. "

Hearing this, Long Chen curled up a smile, a smile that showed his agreement with Ling Xiao's point of view, as well as his expectations for the future of the Jiang family.

"That's true. You're right." He agreed softly, then changed the subject, with a hint of emotion in his tone.

"The Jiang family is always the Jiang family, no matter how many storms and changes it has gone through. The actions of Jiang Yuan, Jiang Zhan, and Jiang Lianheng are just an episode in the long river of family history. It was a rebellion, not the end. Now that the rebellion has been eliminated, it is time for the Jiang family to regain its vitality and stand tall again in the world."

However, this vision for the future could not completely cover up the loss in Long Chen's heart. He sighed softly and looked into the distance, as if bidding farewell to some invisible force. "Brother, I have to go back."

There was a barely perceptible heaviness in his voice. "My existence and my strength are unknown even to my father. I have my own identity and responsibilities on this continent. If I am exposed one day, I am afraid that the Holy Church will settle accounts with me. But please believe that no matter where I am, my heart is always with you."

At this point, Long Chen paused, as if trying to calm his emotions. "Tell my third brother how I am and tell him that no matter how the world changes, we are brothers and this friendship will never change."

His words were full of warmth and reluctance, "If you have time, remember to come to Fuzun Mansion to find me. There will always be a place for you there."

"Okay, Long Chen, you go first. Safety always comes first." Ling Xiao's voice was full of concern and trust. He patted Long Chen's shoulder gently. That pat was not only an encouragement to his friend, but also a confirmation of the deep friendship between them.

"The road ahead is still long. One day, when we are able to face any challenge without fear in this Demon Suppression Mansion, our gathering at that time will surely be even more meaningful. There is no need to rush now." (End of this chapter)
