Chapter 33 Silverfish
Jiang Qing didn't realize how complicated the emotions were in Jiang Tan's words.
He even shouted, "When my grandfather comes, you'll be reduced to ashes! After all, I'm the heir he values most."
In fact, it was just as Jiang Qing said, so Jiang Tan was particularly unwilling.
She still remembered that when she was young, she saw a special silverfish on the beach. She was captivated by it at first sight and never forgot it.
Her grandfather, the patriarch of the Jiang family, would temporarily put aside the affairs of Yingzhou and fish out the finger-sized silver fish for her from the vast ocean.
Little Jiang Tan cherished her grandfather's kindness very much. She specially picked the most beautiful porcelain bowl to keep the silverfish in it.
But Jiang Qing saw it.
He seemed to be unable to bear to see her do anything good, and threw the beautiful porcelain bowl and the poor silverfish to the ground in front of her.
The beautiful porcelain bowl turned into ugly pieces, and the shiny silverfish soon became dead fish.
But this is not what Jiang Tan resents the most.
She still remembered that day when Jiang Qing broke her porcelain bowl and fish and then started crying.
When Jiang Zan came to check the situation, he was the first to complain.
"It's my sister! She doesn't like me and hit me with that porcelain bowl. Grandpa, it hurts so much!"
Jiang Tan still doesn't know how Jiang Zan, who was already a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage at that time, was deceived by the childish lies of a child.
She only remembered that her grandfather just listened to Jiang Qing's words and decided that what Jiang Qing said was the truth, and no matter how she argued, it didn't count.
Then she realized that in her grandfather's heart, there was a huge difference between her and Jiang Qing.
“Bang—”
There was only a shocking sound of a bell, and the sound waves turned directly into a tangible weapon and flew straight towards Jiang Tan.
No one could react, and Jiang Tan took the murderous blow head-on.
She kept backing away until she half-knelt down and spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with internal organs.
"Junior sister!"
Fan Qingyue hurried forward, pointed at the person and asked, "Who is coming?"
The old man with white hair and beard stood in front of Jiang Qing like the strongest wall in the world.
The people guarding the city have already revealed his identity.
"Head of the family."
Jian Anning raised her eyebrows and asked, "Are you Jiang Zan?"
Jiang Zan's expression was serious. He could see that Jian An Ning was at the same Nascent Soul stage as him, and there were also two Golden Core stage cultivators and one Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.
Moreover, he could feel that those three people all had the blood of aristocratic families.
Although the Jiang family is the only one in the world that has preserved its heritage relatively intact by taking advantage of its geographical location, the Jiang family's heritage focuses on healing.
If a fight really breaks out, he can hold back the one in the Nascent Soul stage, but their purpose is obviously to target Jiang Qing. With such a formation, he cannot protect Jiang Qing completely.
"Who are you and why are you provoking Yingzhou?"
"Don't make false accusations," Jian Anning pointed at Jiang Qing and said, "It was someone from your family who provoked me, and my disciple just taught him a lesson."
"But it's true that your disciple hurt my grandson first?" Jiang Zan was still aggressive and showed no intention of easing up.
Jian Anning was so angry that she almost laughed. She said, "You harmed my disciple like this, and I haven't settled the score with you yet."
"Besides, do you know who she is?"
Lu Fei finally figured out the relationship between the visitor and Jiang Tan. Pointing at Jiang Tan, he said in a voice that everyone could hear: "So, isn't he also your grandfather?"
The atmosphere suddenly became tense. No one in Yingzhou had expected things to develop in this way.
"Are you Jiang Tan?"
Jiang Zan was a little bit unbelievable. He cast a spell to detect Jiang Tan's bloodline. Everything can be faked, but the Jiang family bloodline cannot lie.
He watched the spell that was used to detect bloodlines emit a brilliant light, a light that only the direct bloodline recognized by him could possess.
In Jiang Tan's generation, he only recognized two people, one was Jiang Qing and the other was Jiang Tan.
Jiang Zan's hands were shaking, and Jian An Ning walked over to Jiang Tan and whispered in her ear, "Xiao Tan, are you stupid? Using secret techniques to forcibly increase your cultivation has severely damaged your meridians, and you still took his attack."
Jian Anning glanced at Jiang Zan and continued, "You could have avoided it."
Yes, Jiang Tan thought, she was already a cultivator in the Jindan stage, and she was no longer that weak little girl, so why didn't she hide?
Is there still some hopeless expectation in her heart?
Could it be that grandpa has been silently paying attention to her and recognized her directly?
Just think about it and you will know that it is impossible.
So Jiang Tan struggled to stand up with the help of Fan Qingyue.
She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, looked up at Jiang Zan, and said, "Yes, and I came back this time just to kill Jiang Qing and Chu Qinghe."
Jian An Ning wanted to shut her second apprentice up. Why did he always talk about fighting and killing?
Aren’t they here to seek a way to heal Jiang Tan’s injuries?
However, Jiang Zan didn't seem surprised, but he couldn't help but frown when Jiang Tan mentioned Chu Qinghe's name.
"If you want to kill that kind of thing anytime, I can help you."
Jiang Zan changed the subject and added, "But if you dare to touch Qing'er, even if you are my granddaughter, I will not let you off easily."
"I've read ancient books. There have always been two candidates for the Jiang family's heir, and the inheritance methods are roughly divided into two types." Jiang Tan didn't care about Jiang Zan and spoke to himself.
"One, one of the candidates gives up the inheritance, and two, one party kills the other."
"My name is also engraved on the hibiscus tree leaves that engrave the Jiang family genealogy. I will not give up the inheritance."
After saying this, Jiang Tan glanced at Jiang Qing and said, "I'm here to take your life."
That glance made Jiang Qing tremble all over. How could the second son of the Jiang family, who grew up in a greenhouse, have ever seen such a murderous person?
Even if you have met him before, you have to suppress your anger in front of him.
The more Jian An Ning listened to Jiang Tan talk, the more headache she felt, so she stopped him directly and tried to get things back on track.
However, Jiang Tan suddenly sent her a message: "The Jiang family's inheritance focuses on healing. If I can obtain the Jiang family's inheritance, I can be cured."
Jian Anning's eyes lit up as Jiang Tan spoke.
It was a good deal to use an insignificant life in exchange for her second apprentice's recovery. She even wanted to take action directly.
However, many years ago, someone told her that such thinking was wrong and that she should not commit murder.
So Jane An Ning could only think about it in her heart and satisfy herself.
Jiang Zan's face turned very ugly as Jiang Tan spoke, but it was probably because what Jiang Tan said was actually the Jiang family's custom.
In the end, he still didn't say much, but turned to Jian An Ning and said, "So, you are Elder Jian of the Qingyun Sect?"
Jian Anning clasped her fists and said with a smile, "It's me."
"Come to think of it, we have been stuck here for a long time. Why don't you let us go into Silver Moon City and rest for a while so that you can arrange things for them." Jian An Ning pointed at Jiang Tan and Jiang Qing and said.
"You must have a pass!"
Behind Jiang Zan, Jiang Qing was shouting at the top of his lungs.
Jian Anning: Good guy, you haven’t forgotten this yet?
However, Jiang Zan didn't seem to care much about this matter. He simply said, "Since I already know your origins and that you are Qingyun Sect cultivators and not scoundrels, there is no need to use any objects as proof. You can enter Yinyue City directly."
Jiang Qing's expression revealed a hint of resentment. It was hard to imagine that blood-related relatives would reveal such malicious expressions.
Moreover, Jian An Ning took another look at Jiang Qing.
She had a vague feeling that this person was taking a very bad turn.
"If you really care about your heir," Jian An Ning pointed at Jiang Qing and said after walking past them, "you might as well take a closer look at him. He looks like he's going to break down."
But Jiang Zan did not take Jian Anning's warning seriously and said, "My grandson, please don't worry about him."
Jian An Ning shrugged and thought to herself: It's rare that she is so kind as to remind me.
After Jian An Ning and his group entered Silver Moon City, Jiang Zan could no longer hide his true nature. The word "vicious" was almost written on his face, but Jiang Zan did not turn around and did not notice Jiang Qing's abnormality.
"Grandpa, Taoist Murong said that the pass can not only identify the identity of the visitor, but also make it easier for the Jiang family to understand the situation of every resident of Silver Moon City."
"How can you just let them go like this?"
Jiang Zan said calmly, "They are from the Qingyun Sect and won't stay in Yingzhou for long. They will leave."
Jiang Qing was still a little unwilling, his back teeth were almost broken by him, but he had to pretend to be pitiful and said, "My sister came back for no apparent reason, and she also wants to kill me for no apparent reason. What should I do?"
Jiang Qing was also very clear about the Jiang family inheritance practices that Jiang Tan mentioned. In the beginning, his mother drove Jiang Tan out of Yingzhou Island completely just to be on the safe side.
I didn't expect Jiang Tan to come back.
How dare she come back?
Malice like mud flowed in Jiang Qing's heart, and in a flash, countless despicable solutions popped up in his mind.
However, it was not implemented in time.
Jiang Zan stood with his hands behind his back, and the fishy sea breeze blew his pure white beard and hair.
He looked at the boundless sea, and his words seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight.
"Grandpa won't let you die."
Jiang Qing's eyes lit up.
On the other side, in Silver Moon City, Jian Anning and his group were looking for an inn to stay in.
Although Yingzhou Island is closed, there is always a teleportation array connecting it to the outside world. Therefore, the currency used here is no different from that outside, both are spirit stones.
The items sold on the island were very different from those on land. Jane Anning was really excited and stopped in front of a small stall.
There were several arm-sized jars on the stall, and the aroma of wine wafted out of the jars. Upon closer inspection, three big words were clearly written next to them: Peach Blossom Wine.
Jian Anning said to his three disciples with a stern face, "Drinking will cause trouble. Even though you are monks, you must remember this."
Then she untied the gourd from her waist, handed it to the stall owner, and said, "Fill it up for me."
Fan Qingyue, Jiang Tan, and Lu Fei, who actually don't drink: ...
The stall owner was naturally very enthusiastic about the business that came to his door. As he filled his glass with wine, he said, "The ancients said that only Du Kang can relieve worries. Sometimes it can also relieve worries and make you forget them."
Jane Anning nodded in agreement.
Fan Qingyue and Jiang Tan have become accustomed to Jian An Ning's occasional out-of-line behavior, only Lu Fei is the most honest.
He said, "But that would just be indulging in a dream, it can't change the facts."
Jian Anning's hand trembled violently as she took the gourd, and then she smiled slightly and said to Lu Fei, "But human beings have a limited tolerance for pain. At least we can escape for a while."
"Besides, perhaps there are some forgotten memories that can only be awakened by this."
Jian Anning raised the gourd and said.
