3: Chapter 3: Killing the Qi Hai Elder instantly, everyone is shocked!

Just as several female Cultivators of the Jiang Family were about to suffer a tragic fate, a palm with an aura even stronger than Li Wuji's, accompanied by an overbearing voice, suddenly rushed towards Li Wuji from the crowd. The two palms collided instantly, forming a massive cloud of thick mist.

"What! This aura, how is this possible? How can there be such a powerful expert?"

"Ah!!! No..." First, there was a cry of surprise from within, followed by a series of shrill screams.

After a long while, when the thick mist dispersed, the scene before them left everyone present dumbfounded!

On the ground, there was a huge palm print. Within the palm print, Li Wuji was kneeling, his clothes tattered, and his entire body covered in blood-stained wounds.

The most tragic sight was his lower body, which had been reduced to a bloody mess of flesh.

"This... Is this Elder Li? How could this be!"

"What exactly happened? Who could have beaten Li Wuji, a Qi Sea Realm expert, into such a state?"

"Damn it, Elder Li probably won't need a Cauldron anymore." The people around him flinched, their expressions strange.

Their hearts were in shock! This was an Elder of the Hegemon Sect, one of the strongest individuals in this region. To the people of Qinglin City, he was an incredibly important figure, yet now he was in such a miserable state.

Cheng Yuannian scrambled to Li Wuji's side, asking in a panic, "Elder Li, Elder Li, are you alright?"

However, the only answer he received was Li Wuji's faint breathing.

"Stop howling. You should worry about your own situation first, Family Head Cheng."

"Who! Who is it!" Cheng Yuannian roared frantically, looking around.

He saw a young man standing in the Void Realm, his arms crossed, looking down at him with cold eyes.

Cheng Yuannian looked as if he had seen a ghost, his pupils dilated, and he pointed a trembling finger at Jiang Xuan. "You... you, Jiang Xuan?"

Jiang Xuan's lips curled into a slight, playful smile. "What, in such a short time, Family Head Cheng no longer recognizes me?"

"How is that possible, how could it be you? How could you be a Qi Sea Realm expert? Weren't you crippled of your Cultivation?"

"Noisy. I can't be bothered to waste words with you."

Jiang Xuan had no time to speak further with this old man. His eyes filled with Killing Intent, and with another single grasp, countless palms made of light blue Spiritual Qi rapidly flew towards the people of the Three Great Families.

"Bang, bang, bang..."

All the members of the Three Great Families hadn't even recovered from their shock before they were crushed by the palms, exploding like vibrant, crimson fireworks. Only Cheng Yuannian remained standing alone.

"Gulp, gulp."

Sounds of gulping could be heard around the Jiang Family. Moments ago, there had been constant discussions, but now it was eerily quiet.

After an unknown amount of time, "So, so terrifying..."

"Is this truly the useless young master of the Jiang Family? If he's useless, then what am I...?"

"It seems something significant has happened. We must quickly go back and report it; the times are changing."

Some people from nearby forces, realizing the seriousness of the matter, no longer lingered and quickly disappeared from the spot. They needed to report everything that happened today in detail.

The others also did not stay, dispersing far from the area. They feared that Jiang Xuan might go mad and kill them all as well.

Jiang Xuan seemed to sense something, gave a distant glance, and then paid no more attention. He was not one to indiscriminately kill the innocent.

Inside the Jiang Family, there was a profound silence. Pairs of eyes stared blankly at Jiang Xuan.

Especially the younger generation of the Jiang Family. They had felt something was wrong just now and were about to flee in the chaos, only to find Jiang Xuan standing still, emanating a terrifying aura.

Jiang Yuntian and the others had recovered some strength and were now able to move normally. They quickly rushed to Jiang Xuan's side.

The few old men stared at Jiang Xuan in disbelief, their eyes as if looking at a monster, which gave Jiang Xuan goosebumps.

Jiang Yuntian excitedly reached out his hands, firmly grasping Jiang Xuan's arm, and his voice trembled as he said, "Xuaner, you, you've recovered?"

Jiang Xuan looked at his adoptive father with complex emotions. He thought to himself, "Very well, since heaven has given me such an Opportunity, from now on, your Family will be my Family."

"In my previous life, I was alone. In this life, I have a father who cares about me, which doesn't seem bad at all."

"Moreover, the first thing Jiang Yuntian asked when he saw me wasn't about my Cultivation, but directly about my physical condition. He is a qualified father."

Thinking of this, the slight awkwardness in Jiang Xuan's heart vanished, and a gentle smile appeared on his lips.

"Father, I'm fine. This child has come to realize that such a woman is not worthy of him. Once this matter is settled, I will devote myself to Cultivation. Only by being strong enough can no one dare to bully me!"

Jiang Yuntian's face was filled with relief. "Good, worthy of being my son, Jiang Yuntian. However, Xuaner, Cultivation is important, but if you meet someone suitable in the future, don't give up. Your father still wants to hold grandchildren someday." Jiang Xuan paused, then smiled and nodded.

"Xuaner, what's going on with your Cultivation? Weren't you unable to Cultivate?" After confirming Jiang Xuan was fine, Jiang Yuntian asked seriously.

He had also heard of some unorthodox demonic Cultivators and evil Cultivators who would stop at nothing to Cultivate, committing heinous acts to quickly improve their Cultivation.

He was afraid that Jiang Xuan might also have gone down an irreversible path for revenge. Historically, evil and demonic Dao have never ended well. However, looking at Xuaner, he didn't seem like that.

Seeing Jiang Yuntian's puzzled expression, Jiang Xuan roughly guessed what he was thinking. He couldn't help but chuckle.

"Father, don't worry, this child's Cultivation was obtained legitimately (just a small cheat, that's all). It's just that I can't explain it in detail yet. I'll tell you when the time is right."

Only he could know about the System. In the future, he would just make up an excuse to brush it off.

Seeing Jiang Xuan say this, Jiang Yuntian no longer pressed the matter. His son had grown up, and it was normal for him to have his own secrets.

"Yes, your father trusts you and won't ask any more questions. As long as you are a member of the Jiang Family and my son, that's enough."

At this moment, the surrounding Family Elders excitedly exclaimed, "Tsk tsk, a sixteen-year-old Qi Sea Realm expert, what talent! I've never heard of such a thing in my life. To think it would appear in my Jiang Family."

"Indeed, heaven blesses our Jiang Family, granting us such a great Opportunity in our time of crisis. It truly is the blessing of our ancestors!" One Family Elder excitedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly towards the ancestral hall.

Jiang Xuan quickly helped the old man up, looking at the tearful Family Elders before him. He then remembered their brave sacrifice earlier and felt a surge of admiration.

His expression was solemn as he said earnestly, "All of you Family Elders have watched Jiang Xuan grow up since childhood; you are all Elders. Please rest assured, as long as I, Jiang Xuan, am still here, the Jiang Family will surely rise!"

He certainly wouldn't stay long in Qinglin City. The small Qinglin City was merely a drop in the ocean compared to the entire Sky Continent.

Regarding the Family, he already had his own plans before leaving. That place in the Hegemon Sect should be good, right?

Jiang Yuntian watched this scene with satisfaction. He then asked, "Xuaner, now, what should we do?"

With the strength Jiang Xuan had displayed, both Jiang Yuntian and the Family Elders silently regarded him as their leader. Therefore, they would all follow Jiang Xuan's advice on what to do next.

Jiang Xuan's gentle face instantly turned cold, and his tone became chilling. "An eye for an eye. Gather the Family disciples; leave none of the Three Great Families alive."

Everyone present was startled, then a hint of Killing Intent appeared on their faces. The time for revenge had come!

As the Jiang Family members departed, the events of the day had already spread throughout Qinglin City and continued to spread further afield.
