Fortunately, he returned from his training trip and rescued Xiao Lingyu and the others in time.
However, even so, they were still shunned by their families, unable to obtain resources for cultivation, and were reduced to useless people.
Without Xiao Lin's protection, Xiao Lingyu and the others would definitely suffer humiliation!
They might even face annihilation!
"If you want revenge, feel free to come find me!"
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lin's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "But you absolutely cannot allow me to hurt my family and friends!"
"Don't worry, they are safe and sound!"
Jiang Wang nodded, without making any promises: "As long as you leave the Burning Sun Refining Heart Cauldron behind, I guarantee that I will never harm Xiao Lingyu and the others in the slightest in the future."
Are you sure?
"Sure."
"Okay, I hope you remember everything you've done today."
With those words, Xiao Lin turned and left, leaving behind a stunned crowd of Jiang clan members.
"Young Master, are we just going to let this go?"
After Xiao Lin left, an elder of the Jiang clan stepped forward and said with a furrowed brow.
"If we don't let it go this way, what else can we do?"
Jiang Wang's voice was filled with resentment: "Do you think you can stop Xiao Lin?"
"To be honest with you elders, Xiao Lin not only has reached the peak of the eighth level of the Innate Realm, but his physical strength is also extraordinary."
"None of you alone can stand against him, unless..."
At this point, Jiang Wang abruptly stopped.
But those words, though implied, sent a shiver down the spines of the elders, who stared wide-eyed in shock.
"Xiao Lin's combat power is terrifying."
"If you don't want to die, you'd better get back to the Jiang clan as soon as possible, otherwise, what awaits us is endless pursuit."
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Lin stepped forward and disappeared in an instant.
"Xiao Lin just mentioned Xiao Lingyu, could it be...?"
Staring in the direction Xiao Lin had left, the elders' expressions were uncertain.
"Immediately issue the order to dispatch a team of elite disciples to secretly search for Xiao Lin's whereabouts."
Finally, an elder solemnly ordered, "Furthermore, immediately inform the patriarch and request assistance!"
The Jiang clan is divided into two major camps.
Firstly, led by Jiang Wang's father, they supported him to become the new core of the family, calling themselves the 'Jiang royal family'.
Secondly, there is a senior elder who claims to be the 'Jiang royal family'!
For centuries, the two factions have been vying for the core position, and the conflict has only intensified.
Jiang Wang's father even boasted that he would marry Jiang Wang's mother into the family, thereby completely suppressing Jiang Wang's father.
Therefore, Jiang Wang took a risk, using the Burning Sun Refining Heart Cauldron to murder his elder sister, seize Xiao Lingyu's alchemy inheritance, and thus gain more resources to rise rapidly.
According to Jiang Wang's father's original plan, he was to severely humiliate Xiao Lingyu at the Jiang family gathering six months later.
At that time, he will be able to reap the benefits, completely destroy Jiang Wang's father's power, and take his place as the new head of the Jiang clan.
But to everyone's surprise, Xiao Lin suddenly appeared and crushed him in one fell swoop.
"Damn bastard, how dare you ruin my grand plan!"
After gritting his teeth and letting out a few low growls, Jiang Wang turned and darted into the courtyard.
"Father, your son-in-law is late."
.
A moment later, Jiang Wang knelt by the bed, his face full of guilt: "The family business you worked so hard to build has now been destroyed."
"It's not your fault."
Jiang Wang's father shook his head: "This time, for me, it may be a calamity!"
"Listen to me."
"Now, you must get ahead of Xiao Lin and bring Xiao Lingyu to the Jiang family to be dealt with by your grandfather!"
“I have investigated and found out that the four siblings have a very bad relationship and have no feelings for each other. You can use this relationship to win them over.”
"If we can win them over, it will be the same as having Xiao Lin's Achilles' heel."
"At that time, I'm not afraid that Xiao Lin will not obediently submit to you."
"clear."
After a moment's thought, Jiang Wang nodded in agreement: "Xiao Lingyun's father is a direct descendant of the Xiao family. As long as I capture Xiao Yunshan..."
"Um?"
Suddenly, Jiang Wang frowned: "Something's not right. Xiao Yunshan isn't in the city. It's said he went into the border of Qingxuan Kingdom with Xiao Lin?"
"Xiao Lin went to Qingxuan Kingdom?"
Jiang Wang's father raised an eyebrow, then a smile appeared on his lips: "Hehe, this is truly a godsend!"
"Immediately send a message to the family's higher-ups, informing the Xiao family that they must wipe out Xiao Lingyun, Xiao Yunhai, and other members of the Xiao family's branch tonight."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang nodded and immediately sent out a message.
Not long after, at the Xiao family mansion in Qingxuan City.
"Third Miss, something terrible has happened!"
In a courtyard, Xiao Lin's mother, Xiao Qiuxue, anxiously shouted, "Jiang Wang has led the Jiang family's experts to surround us completely. Not even a fly can escape."
"Jiang Wang?"
Xiao Lingyun frowned and asked, "What kind of trouble is that bastard causing now?"
"He wants us to hand over the Burning Sun Refining Heart Cauldron!"
Xiao Qiuxue said solemnly, "He also said that only Xiao Lingyu is worthy of possessing the Burning Sun Heart Refining Cauldron, and that you should hand it over!"
"Hmph." Xiao Yun snorted angrily.
"It seems he's preparing to make a move."
Xiao Lingyu pondered for a moment, then looked up and scanned the crowd: "You all hide in the secret room and conceal yourselves."
"I will end the battle and return to Qingxuan City as soon as possible."
"Uncle Xiao Yun, you must be careful and not act impulsively, lest you fall into an abyss of no return," Xiao Ling said worriedly.
"Don't worry, Jiang Wang is nothing but trouble."
With a gentle pat on Xiao Ling's shoulder, Xiao Lingyu finished speaking with a faint smile, then leaped into the air and headed towards the Jiang family.
...
Qingxuan City, the residence of the Jiang family.
In the spacious and luxurious council hall, Jiang Wang sat in the main seat, his face full of arrogance.
On his left and right sides were seated high-ranking members of the Jiang family.
"Master of the family."
Jiang Heng, the patriarch of the Jiang clan, bowed respectfully and then said, "According to the information we have, the Burning Sun Refining Heart Cauldron should have been taken by that young man named Xiao Lin."
"That little beast is no ordinary person. He defeated Jiang Wang and the five elders in just three moves."
Jiang Heng continued, "Although he won by sneak attack, he was still able to knock away Jiang Wang and the combined attack of the five elders with three punches, so his strength is quite considerable. We need to carefully consider whether to deal with him directly."
Jiang Wang waved his hand and said, "Although this kid is powerful, he only has the cultivation of a ninth-grade martial apprentice, while I am a ninth-grade martial master. He can't do anything to me."
Jiang Heng asked, "Since the patriarch thinks there is no problem, then let me gather the family's strongest members."
Jiang Wang waved his hand, signaling, "Begin the operation."
Jiang Heng then stood up and left the main hall.
After about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Jiang Heng returned to the main hall, bowed, and said, "Reporting to the patriarch, all the experts in the family have gathered."
Jiang Wang nodded, then stood up and strode out of the main hall.
The Jiang family's powerful members, totaling over six hundred people, followed Jiang Wang in a grand procession towards the Xiao family's residence.
This time, Jiang Wang led the Jiang family's experts, clearly intending to strike at the root of the problem, completely eradicate Xiao Lin, cut off the Xiao family's foundation, and ensure that Xiao Lin would never have a chance to turn the tables.
