At that moment, Yan Xi'an was instantly put on the defensive.
He may not care about other people's lives, but when it comes to his own, he loses that composure.
He is a dignified Celestial Immortal. If he were to be taken away by a Tribulation Transcending cultivator, it would be a huge loss for him.
Jiang Jiren dared to swear in the name of Heaven, so there was no doubt about his attitude and determination.
Even if he dared to gamble, Yao Dengxian would absolutely not be willing to die with him.
Besides, he wouldn't dare gamble; that would be tantamount to suicide.
The Jiang family's powerful weapon could definitely take him down in one go.
Yao Dengxian, who had been conflicted, breathed a deep sigh of relief.
He knew that the Yao family wouldn't need to fight so desperately now.
It was Jiang Jiren's decisive and ruthless actions that saved the Yao family!
at this time.
Although the fighting was still raging all around, everyone's attention was focused on Yao Dengxian.
Yao Dengxian bowed respectfully to Yan Xi'an and earnestly advised him:
"Senior Yan, we originally only wanted to kill Chu Mo. Now that he is a guest of the Jiang family, why not give the Jiang family some face and settle things with him another day? What do you think?"
He believed that under these circumstances, Yan Xi'an would absolutely not dare to continue risking his life.
All he lacked was a way out and an excuse.
Since that's the case, I naturally have to help him save face.
Otherwise, if we continue to fight with these lunatics from the Jiang family, who knows if they might suddenly lose their minds and drag us down with them?
As the head of the Yao family, the possibility of him personally leading people to provoke them is extremely high.
Yan Xi'an stopped fighting, glanced at Chu Mo with resentment, and then snorted coldly:
"Since that's the case, then we'll do as you say and let this kid go for now, as a way of giving the Jiang family some face."
"After all, the ancestors of the Jiang family have some connection with us."
As for the origin of this connection, whether it exists or not, that's no longer important.
The important thing is that he found a reason to barely refrain from taking action.
"Uncle, shall we continue?"
One of the middle-aged cultivators from the Jiang family, who had just completed his tribulation, asked calmly.
He looked relaxed and casual, as if he wasn't looking for someone to die with, but rather asking if you'd eaten today.
He was mentally prepared for this moment to come.
This is a rule that has been in place in the Jiang family for millions of years: those who can use powerful weapons are selected according to their cultivation level, from lowest to highest.
If a cultivator who has undergone one tribulation dies, a cultivator who has undergone two tribulations will take their place, and so on.
Even the head of the family and the patriarch were ranked in this way back then.
As for the other person, he stared at Yan Xi'an with a wary look in his eyes, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
He looked at the Jiang family's second-stage cultivator who was eyeing him menacingly.
Yan Xi'an was furious.
Yet, at the same time, a pang of unease, which she herself was unwilling to admit, swept through her heart.
However, he still had to put on a calm and composed demeanor.
Jiang Jiren glanced around with disdain. The battle had completely stopped, clearly indicating that everyone had received instructions.
"Hmph, since they've stopped, let's let them go for now."
The best outcome would naturally be one where no one dies.
Otherwise, even if he could take away a Celestial Immortal or a Ninth Tribulation cultivator, he would still feel it was a loss, since the Jiang family's genius would also die.
However, sometimes, it's necessary to suffer certain losses.
And some blood must be shed!
This is one of the most important reasons why the family has been able to continue to this day.
...
Yan Xi'an eventually left with his men, and the Jiang family's old residence once again regained its majesty and tranquility.
However, everyone knows that the cultivation world in Zhongzhou is in chaos.
However, they soon discovered that the chaos wasn't limited to Zhongzhou...
It's the entire Kunlun Realm!
The day after the battle with the Jiang family, the Yao family issued a bounty for Chu Mo's assassination.
The prizes are three immortal artifacts, plus one billion top-grade spirit stones.
The Jiang family then immediately announced that they were severing all ties with the Yao family.
They refused to cooperate with any other aristocratic families that had previously worked with the Yao family. All powerful families were forced to choose between the Yao and Jiang families.
By employing this method of killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of their own, the Jiang family publicly declared their complete break and enmity with the Yao family.
Many powerful and influential families were also forced to choose sides between the two families.
Then.
The Jiang and Ji families officially formed a marriage alliance, and the Yao and Yun families also announced their alliance.
Meanwhile, the Winners, who are also among the five great ancient families of Zhongzhou, remain silent and neutral for the time being.
That's not all.
As time went on, more details of the conflict between the two sides gradually came to light.
Chu Mo's name spread throughout the Central Plains and quickly spread to the entire Kunlun Realm.
The most crucial thing is his background!
Thanks to the spreading of rumors by certain individuals, everyone now knows that Chu Mo comes from a small world called the "Primordial Realm".
That small world has another name in the Kunlun Realm.
"The Land of Origin!"
This is a fragment of the Kunlun Realm that collapsed during the Great War of the Gods, millions of years ago.
This small piece of land provides nearly 80% of the Great Dao's original power for the entire Kunlun Great World.
The Kunlun Realm is not lacking in spiritual energy, but it lacks the Great Dao Origin to help comprehend the supreme laws of the Heavenly Dao.
This is precisely the main reason why it is hundreds of times more difficult for cultivators in the Kunlun Realm to become immortals.
The endless years that have passed.
Almost all the ancient aristocratic families have sent people to search for this place.
