Chapter 13023: Can't afford to lose face

Jiang Xiqing also echoed, her eyes were also full of worry and reluctance. "Yes, Xiao'er, although we hope you can avenge us, we hope you can return safely. Remember, no matter what the result is, we are proud of you."

Ling Xiao heard this, and a warm current surged in his heart, which was the care and encouragement from his relatives. He took a deep breath, his eyes were firm and resolute.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of Ling Xiao's mouth, and that smile contained both contempt for the upcoming challenge and the determination to protect his relatives.

"In my eyes, those so-called Jiang family masters are just passers-by who are destined to fail in the book of fate. Their existence is just to add a bit of interest to my temper. You don't need to worry too much about this. The Jiang family is just a piece of cake for me, and it can be easily disintegrated. What's more, I have a powerful helper like Jin Yan by my side, which is even more powerful."

Jiang Xiruo looked at her son's resolute face, and a trace of complex emotions flashed in her eyes, with worry and pride intertwined. "Do you have to go?" There was a subtle tremor in her voice, which was the deep love and reluctance of a mother for her child.

Ling Xiao nodded gently, with unquestionable determination in his eyes. "Yes, mother. They not only hurt you, but also touched my bottom line. I must avenge this hatred. I, Ling Xiao, will never let anyone hurt my relatives, and the only way to protect you is to become stronger."

After saying this, Ling Xiao seemed to have unloaded the burden on his heart and focused all his attention on his own recovery. I closed my eyes and concentrated, and a wave of subtle spiritual power surged around my body. This is me seizing the time, using all available resources, weakening myself, and making the most advanced preparations for the upcoming battle.

Jiang Xiqiang looked at his son's focused and small figure, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

You know that you can no longer use words to change your son's decision, so what you can do now is not to face everything weakly like your son, but to seize the time to recover your strength so that you can become a solid shield for your son at the critical moment.

You took a deep breath, as if you had suppressed all your worries and concerns in your heart, and turned to practice. At that moment, the seven mothers and children seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding, fighting together to protect each other.

Before arranging everything, Ling Xiao and Ling Xiao said goodbye briefly. Although there were few words between the two, the friendship of fighting side by side was beyond words. Then, I supported Ji Chong and left the mysterious area full of unknowns and safety step by step, and set foot on the road back to the Jiang family.

I shook my head, my eyes hesitant and simple: "Lian Heng, you understand his intentions. But his danger is equally important. He is the future of your Jiang family and cannot make any mistakes. He sent you back, and let the others continue to wait outside. Although Liao Ke is cunning, you can see that I will appear again in a short time, and you don’t need to spend money there."

I know that Ji Chong, as the ancestor of the Jiang family, is the spiritual pillar of the family. If there is no mistake here, it will be a heavy burden for the entire Jiang family.

"Dad, your injuries are too severe. You must go home and heal immediately. I'll leave it to you." Ling Xiao's tone was full of unquestionable determination, and his eyes were full of worry and love for his father.

"Is this Liao Ke really completely defeated by the backlash?" Ling Xiao's tone was full of confusion and confusion. I tried to find the answer from my father Ji Chong, but I saw that Ji Chong's face was also solemn and his brows were furrowed.

Ling Xiao and his entourage were pale, staring at the embarrassed figure nearby-Ji Chong. My body was incomplete, half of my body seemed to be torn apart by a tangible force, and the blood was dripping, which was shocking.

"How is it possible!" Ling Xiao's voice was full of incredible shock, and my eyes were wide open, as if I wanted to take in all the incredible facts. I never thought that this seemingly old Jiang Yuan could survive such a terrible backlash, not to mention that he could show amazing fighting power.

Seeing his father's insistence, Liao Kexin was not happy, but he also understood the situation at the moment. I nodded, a flash of determination in my eyes, and then turned around and ordered the other warriors of the Jiang family to set up a tight defense line in the mysterious area to ensure that they could respond quickly if there was any disturbance.

I forced a bitter smile, my voice was hoarse and light: "The mysterious area is really an abyss of death. You thought that with your strength, you were enough to run rampant in that area, but you didn't expect that you had been targeted by the terrifying power outside before you touched the trace of Liao Ke. This battle almost exhausted your vitality. If you hadn't advanced in time, I'm afraid you would have been buried here."

Speaking of this, Ji Chong couldn't help but pause, and a simple emotion flashed in his eyes. I didn't tell the whole truth. After all, being severely injured by a man who was much younger than me was such a shame that I couldn't speak of it.

When the people around heard this, they all looked at each other in shock and fear. The horror of the mysterious area far exceeded our imagination, and Ji Chong's experience made us full of awe for that area.

At this time, at the edge of the mysterious area, the air seemed to freeze, and there was an indescribable depression and terror in the silence.

So, I chose to put the blame on the unknown monsters in the mysterious area to maintain my remaining dignity.

"It seems that it is not a wise move to forcefully break into the mysterious area. You must change your strategy, hold on there, and wait for Jiang Yuan and us to come out on our own. Only in this way can you ensure that nothing will go wrong." Ji Chong's words revealed a kind of helplessness and determination. I knew that I was now too strong to fight again, and I could only hope to wait and see.

"Lian Heng, you must tell him everything. The one who hurt you was not the legendary monsters in the mysterious area, but this Jiang Yuan and a friend of mine. Our strength is far beyond his imagination. If you, the Jiang family, want to take revenge, you must be fully prepared."

Until we were far away from the strange island where the mysterious area was located, Ji Chong finally loosened his frown. I stared at Ling Xiao, with neither relief nor solemnity in my eyes:

Ji Chong's face was also as pale as paper, and a trace of bitterness and sweetness flashed in his eyes.

When Ji Chong heard this, a warm current surged in his heart, but it was also mixed with a trace of bitterness.

"Brother Liao Ke, what...what exactly is going on?!" Ling Xiao's voice trembled, and his eyes were full of disbelief. I can't imagine that with Ji Chong's strength, he would end up like this.

For a moment, the air was filled with a light and oppressive atmosphere, as if even breathing became normal and difficult.
