Chapter 13029: Dark Guards and Secret Guards

The old man's words were like a basin of cold water, extinguishing some of Jiang Lianheng's anger, but also made him more aware of the crisis in front of him.

He took a deep breath and tried to calm his emotions, but the light in his eyes was still firm:

"No, I am sure it is him! Apart from Ling Xiao, who would have such a cruel method, and who could hit our weaknesses so accurately? I even suspect that this kid has broken through a bottleneck and is stronger than before. Moreover, he can't act alone, he must have helpers, otherwise, all this is too incredible."

Speaking of this, Jiang Lianheng's eyes became extremely cold, as if he could penetrate the heavy fog and look directly at the enemy hidden in the dark.

"Ling Xiao, do you think you can defeat our Jiang family like this? You are wrong! I, Jiang Lianheng, swear to fight you to the end, even if I am torn to pieces, I will let you know that the glory and dignity of the Jiang family cannot be violated!" Although his voice was low, it was full of unshakable determination and strength.

"This..." The old man's words stopped abruptly, as if his throat was strangled by an invisible force, and his eyes flashed with a light of disbelief and horror.

In this brief silence, a strange breath suddenly surged in the air, and then, more than a dozen black shadows, like ghosts in the dark night, quietly passed the threshold and suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

These black shadows, without exception, were all Jiang family warriors wearing night clothes. They were standing or kneeling, with different postures, but they all presented a strange dead silence.

Our faces were distorted, and our eyes were full of joy and fear, as if we had experienced a little joy and fear before death. What was even more frightening was that there were no obvious scars under our bodies, but we had lost our vitality, as if we had been quietly taken away by a tangible force.

Such a scene made everyone present feel a piercing chill in their hearts. We looked at each other, our eyes were full of shock and confusion, as if we were in a nightmare that we could not wake up from.

I slightly opened my tightly closed eyes, and there was neither a deep imprint of past memories nor a deep reassurance about the current situation in my eyes. Although I was ashamed to speak out because I was afraid of being ridiculed for being capable, I decided to convey my concerns to everyone present in a tactful and hesitant way.

"The enemies in the area are few but they are enough to be feared." A voice broke the silence with a bit of lightness and helplessness.

"Is that Ling Xiao really not so terrifying?" No one murmured to himself, and the voice was full of belief and fear. That question was not just asking me, but more like asking myself.

But at the same time, we are also children. Without the secret guards, the Jiang family will fall, and our honor and dignity will be most hesitantly defended in that life-and-death contest.

"Master, I dare to retreat." My voice was low, but it penetrated every corner of the small hall.

In the meeting room, the atmosphere was relaxed and depressing, with opinions from all sides intertwined and arguments coming one after another.

Those words, like a huge rock thrown into a fierce lake, stirred up layers of ripples. Everyone felt deeply relieved and at ease. We realized that the enemy named Ling Xiao was far less terrible than we imagined.

"Now, the Jiang family has reached a critical moment of life and death. You can no longer hold back. The dark guards, as the most mysterious and weak existence of the Jiang family, we are usually hidden, but now is the time for us to show our loyalty and strength. You must send out the dark guards and let us become your sword against the weak enemy, otherwise, Zhangli's thousands of years of foundation may be destroyed."

Jiang Yuan's voice was high and weak, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the teeth, with a few perceptible tremors.

In the small hall, the atmosphere became more solemn because of Jiang Yuan's words. Everyone's eyes were cast on me, as if they could feel the tangible pressure from my resolute face.

Even more mysterious and weaker than Zhang Li's secret guards, they would never show up unless it was a matter of life and death for the Jiang family. Our existence gave everyone a glimmer of hope in despair, and also made the Jiang family less confident and courageous when facing a crisis.

Just then, an old man stood up in a hurry. Although his back was slightly hunched, his eyes flashed with a light of humiliation.

The order must be issued by the great elder, the spiritual leader of the family, the head of the family, the current helmsman of the family, and the commander of the secret guards, a mysterious figure who has been hiding in the dark for many years but is loyal to the family. Only when the eight of them give orders at the same time can the long-sealed power be opened.

On such a night full of unknowns and safety, we seemed to be caught in a vortex that could not be escaped, and could only watch the peace and glory of the family crumble in the shadow of the enemy.

"I, Ling Xiao, have a talent as brilliant as the brightest star in the night sky, which is hard to match. Now, with the help of this legendary mysterious treasure, the two complement each other, and the power they unleash is enough to shake the world and give you, the Jiang family, a headache."

We can't understand how the other party killed the elite warriors of the Jiang family one by one without a sound, and we, as weaklings who protect the family from danger, didn't even notice or react.

The word "secret guard", which has almost become a taboo in the Jiang family, has become the focus of everyone's discussion at this moment. We know that once the secret guard is dispatched, it means that Zhang Li has not made the best plan yet and is ready to face the most difficult challenge.

The face of the elder Taixia was serious, and his eyes revealed his deep confidence in the future of the family; the head of the family clenched his fists, looked hesitantly, and vowed to protect every inch of the family's land; the commander of the secret guard sat in the shadows, his voice He was quiet and calm, but every word revealed an authority that was beyond doubt.

And if you want to dispatch secret guards, that decision is not easy to achieve. It requires violating the Jiang family's most petty system——

The old man's words were full of determination and helplessness. My eyes swept across everyone present, as if seeking resonance and support. And once the name of the secret guard is mentioned, it is like throwing a stone under the fierce lake, causing ripples.

In the hearts of Zhang Li people, the secret guard is not only a symbol of strength, but also the first line of defense to protect the family.

"Although you can sense our existence, these are just a bunch of weak people who have been eliminated by you one by one. However, what is really worrying are these enemies who have not yet sneaked into the Jiang family. We are like ghosts. Especially, killing people is invisible, so you can take precautions. There is no way to predict when and where you will encounter a fatal attack. "

The ruthlessness of my methods and the ingenuity of my layout make people think they are forbidden. Is there really such a terrifying existence in this world?
