"Han Shichang, are you threatening my Tang family?" Tang Qian also raised his eyes and looked coldly at Han Shichang.
"I'm just telling the truth," Han Shichang said slowly.
"I'll say it again, the Tang family has no demonic beasts, and never associates with them. You'd better leave immediately!" Tang Qian shouted again.
"Brother Tang, you're really impressive." A voice rolled in from the horizon, completely suppressing Tang Qian's cold shout.
It even made Tang Qian stagger.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound.
Then I saw a short but vigorous old man floating in mid-air.
With his hands behind his back, he seemed to be strolling leisurely.
But with each step taken, one would suddenly teleport to another location.
In just two or three steps, he was in front of the crowd.
"Wow, so many people, it's quite lively." The old man looked at the huge crowd below and chuckled.
"Brother Jiang." Although Han Shichang addressed him affectionately, his expression remained indifferent.
"I heard that a demonic beast has invaded the Tang family, so I came to help." The old man said, glancing up at Tang Qian.
The Jiang family is determined to obtain that precious treasure of the Tang family.
Tang Qian frowned, about to speak, but was interrupted by Han Shichang.
"Brother Jiang, you misheard. There was no monster invasion," Han Shichang said with a smile.
"Oh?" The old man turned his gaze to Han Shichang, his eyes dark and unfathomable, giving off a gloomy feeling.
Han Shichang, however, disagreed and continued with a laugh: "On the contrary, the Tang family is protecting the demonic beasts and associating with them, and in turn, they are turning against these cultivators."
"Han Shichang, you're spouting nonsense!" Tang Xing pointed his spear directly at Han Shichang, lightning flashing at the tip.
He is Tang Qian's second son and the young patriarch of the Tang family.
"Whether it's slander or not, we'll know after the investigation." The old man glanced at Tang Qian: "Doesn't Clan Chief Tang want to prove his innocence?"
"Jiang Huai Ren, you have no right to investigate my Tang family," Tang Qian snorted.
"I was only thinking of the Tang family, is this how Patriarch Tang sees me?" Jiang Huai-ren spread his hands helplessly.
"Everyone knows what you're up to!" Tang Hua gripped his cane tightly.
They clearly came for the Tang family's treasure, yet they spoke so righteously; they were utterly hypocritical.
"I, Tang Qian, swear to the heavens that there are no demonic beasts here, and my Tang family has never associated with them. If I utter even the slightest falsehood, may I be struck by lightning," Tang Qian said solemnly.
"Anyone can make empty promises," Han Shichang mocked.
“Clan Chief Tang, it would be more reassuring to let everyone see it, and it would also clear your Tang family’s name, wouldn’t it?” Jiang Huai-ren said.
"Like I said, the longer we delay, the more people will come, and then Brother Tang will really be out of control," Han Shichang said threateningly.
"Chief Han is right." Jiang Huai-ren fixed his gaze on Tang Qian and said, "The more people there are, the more trouble we'll have."
"You keep saying there are monsters here, shouldn't the more people there be, the easier it is to kill them? How come it's actually more troublesome?"
"Who?" Jiang Huai-ren and Han Shi-chang both asked warily.
"What, it's only been a short time, and you don't recognize me anymore?" Yun Yue's figure slowly appeared, and then he walked to Tang Qian's side, where the two stood side by side.
"Clan Chief Yun, what are you doing at the Tang family?" Jiang Huai-ren asked, frowning.
“We are in-laws, so isn’t it normal for me to visit?” Yun Yue retorted.
"No wonder Brother Tang is so tough, it turns out he has helpers." Han Shichang said with a half-smile, "Brother Jiang, it seems we have to join forces."
“Clan Chief Tang, my patience is limited,” Jiang Huai-ren said coldly.
"I've long heard that Clan Chief Jiang's cultivation has already reached the peak of the eighth level of the Half-Step Immortal Realm. Why don't I give it a try today?" Yun Yue said, stepping directly out of the clan's protective formation.
"Father, quickly call Uncle Yun back," Tang Xing said with a worried expression.
The saying goes, "Each realm is a different world."
It becomes even more obvious as you go on.
Even a minor difference in cultivation level can make a world of difference.
As far as he knew, Yun Yue's cultivation was at the peak of the sixth level of the half-step immortal realm, which was two whole minor realms away.
With the clan's protective formation in place, they can hold out for a while.
Uncle Yun really didn't need to take this risk.
Tang Hua also gripped his crutch tightly: "I'll go and lend Chief Yun a hand."
Although he didn't know why Yun Yue had suddenly appeared in their Tang family, he knew that Yun Yue was fighting for their Tang family this time.
As the eldest elder of the Tang family, how could he sit idly by?
The Tang family has no ingrates.
"No need." Tang Qian grabbed Tang Hua and said, "Don't worry, even if Jiang Huai Ren and Han Shi Chang join forces, they can't hurt him."
"What?" Tang Hua and Tang Xing were both taken aback.
"Yun Yue, do you want to challenge me?" Jiang Huai Ren's gaze was fixed on Yun Yue, and he took the opportunity to examine him carefully while they were talking.
He has always been a cautious person.
Yun Yue rushed out like that, fearing it might be a trap.
After a careful examination, he discovered that Yun Yue's cultivation level had indeed improved somewhat.
He has already reached the early stage of the seventh level of the half-step immortal realm.
However, compared to myself, I am still far behind.
"Challenge? You're not worthy!" Yun Yue said arrogantly, and even rudely rolled up his sleeves: "I'm going to beat you up."
“Yun Yue, even though you have now advanced to the early stage of the seventh level, you are still worlds apart from me.” Jiang Huai Ren’s face darkened. “If I were you, I would apologize right now.”
"Apologize? Fine then." Yun Yue smiled. "Go ahead and apologize, I'm listening. If you apologize well, I won't beat you up."
“You…” Jiang Huai Ren’s face turned ashen with rage, and black flames shot into the sky.
Some cultivators, eager for a good spectacle, were too close to the front and were scorched by the sudden burst of black flames, immediately letting out a scream.
All he could do was let out a scream.
Because it was immediately burned to ashes and scattered by the wind.
"Yun Yue, you're courting death!" Jiang Huai Ren's gaze was icy, and a black lotus stem in his hand exuded a terrifying aura.
"Heavens, a Heavenly Grade Spiritual Artifact!" The surrounding cultivators unconsciously retreated further and further, fearing that the battle would affect them.
Those few that were burned to ashes just now, aren't they examples of what happens before?
"Enough with the nonsense." Yun Yue picked at his ear and said impatiently, "If you're going to fight, hurry up. I have other things to do after this."
"Where's your magical artifact? Show it to me." Jiang Huai-ren pursed his lips. "Otherwise, it'll seem like I'm bullying you."
For some reason, he had a very ominous feeling.
However, after further investigation, it was found that Yun Yue's cultivation level was indeed lower than his, and the Yun family's foundation was also inferior to that of the Jiang family.
Why is he not afraid?
Could it be that he and Tang Qian conspired to set a trap, waiting for him to walk right into it?
