When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...
Jiang Yuan glanced at Zhao Feng beside him.
"Ancestor, it's not your fault, it's all our family's fault. If my father hadn't been so blinded by greed to cooperate with the Holy Spirit Clan, and if I hadn't failed to dissuade my father and brothers, how could our Zhao family have ended up like this!"
Zhao Feng walked over and, with tears streaming down his face, helped the Zhao family patriarch to his feet. He had already received instructions from Jiang Yuan, so he took the initiative to shoulder the blame, wanting to show the Zhao family his attitude. Although he had only recently joined the Zhao family, he also had a heart set on dedicating himself to it.
"Alright, if it were just about dealing with you, I wouldn't have come all this way in person!" Jiang Yuan walked to the head of the table and sat down expressionlessly. He tapped the table as he spoke, "The evidence of your Zhao family's treason is in the hands of another two-star general in Tianfu. Coincidentally, I have some connection with her, and I can protect a portion of the Zhao family for you. But!"
Jiang Yuan paused, then said coldly, "I need to see your sincerity!"
"My lord, please speak!" the Zhao family patriarch asked excitedly, his eyes gleaming with hope, revealing his feelings. He was old, and his greatest wish in life was to see the Zhao family continue. For the Zhao family, he was even willing to sacrifice his own life.
"Alright, let's not beat around the bush. I need your Zhao family to operate at full capacity to provide war supplies for Dongcheng during the war. Also, assemble a team to go to the front lines to fight against the Holy Spirit Clan. Your Zhao family has committed sins that you must pay for! As long as you make enough contributions, I guarantee that 99% of the Zhao family members will not be judged!" Jiang Yuan stated his purpose.
"Of course! As a member of Dongcheng, how can the Zhao family stand idly by when Dongcheng is in trouble?" the Zhao family patriarch said, clenching his fist.
"Alright, I'll give you half an hour. In half an hour, I want to see the Zhao family's forces appear on the city walls!" Jiang Yuan especially glanced at the other Divine Realm expert from the Zhao family and said, "I hope you can restore the Zhao family's spirit and backbone. The future Zhao family can die standing, but they absolutely cannot live on their knees!"
The entire Zhao family remained silent. These words were deeply etched into their hearts. As a clan of traitors, they could imagine the shame their descendants would bear, but now they had a chance to wash away that shame.
"Also, he'll be the temporary head of the Zhao family. Remember to provide him with all the necessary supplies!"
Jiang Yuan pointed at Zhao Feng and then said, "I'm waiting for your Zhao family to rise from the ashes!"
