235: Jiang Family Orphan
Tianxuan Sect.
Jiang Zeng wore a luxurious, spotless white robe made of fine silk, looking every bit like a Young Master from a wealthy family.
He suddenly knelt before the bed, his Face deeply haggard.
A month had passed since the destruction of the Jiang Manor, and during this month, the Disciples of Mulan Manor had been hunting down the Disciples of the Jiang Family everywhere.
Jiang Zeng was helpless; he could only hide everywhere, not daring to show his Face at all.
Master Jiang's whereabouts were unknown, and Elder Jiang Yan of the Jiang Family was severely injured.
Fortunately, Jiang Yan had a strong life force, otherwise, he would have surely died in Fengcheng.
Jiang Yan was sent to Donggong Pavilion for treatment. The Medicine Sovereign was the foremost medical practitioner in this Immortal Country, which saved Jiang Zeng's life!
"Master, it's all my fault!" Jiang Zeng suddenly burst into tears, his brows furrowed as he gasped for a breath of cold air.
Jiang Zeng knelt by Jiang Yan's bedside.
When the Jiang Manor was attacked by Mulan Manor, if Jiang Zeng hadn't gone back to the Jiang Manor to seek revenge...
Jiang Yan wouldn't have been injured so badly by the Mulan Manor people while trying to save Jiang Zeng. In the end, Jiang Zeng couldn't save anyone.
And Jiang Zeng himself almost lost his life!
If not for Jiang Yan, Jiang Zeng would have died in Fengcheng.
"Alright, Jiang Zeng, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on you." By the bed, Jiang Yan gently patted his shoulder, his tone heavy.
In truth, Jiang Yan felt even more bitter, for the Jiang Manor was no more.
If the Jiang Manor's strength had been a bit greater, it wouldn't have come to this situation.
As it was, the Jiang Manor would Face even greater crises.
Mulan Manor's influence was too great; there was no longer a place for these Jiang Family Disciples in the entire Jianghu.
Jiang Zeng could only lead the remaining Jiang Family Disciples to live ignominiously.
"Medicine Sovereign, how is my Master exactly?" Jiang Zeng's voice was choked with emotion as he grasped the Medicine Sovereign's aged hands and asked anxiously.
The Medicine Sovereign was also a renowned Medicine Saint. Although his cultivation wasn't exceptional, his medical skills were famous throughout the world.
The Medicine Sovereign had a connection with the Jiang Family; otherwise, given his personality, he wouldn't have lent a helping hand.
When the Medicine Sovereign saved people, he valued destiny, and he wouldn't just help anyone.
"This, it depends on Jiang Yan's fortune." Donggong Medicine Sovereign sighed, shook his head, and said with a hint of helplessness.
A month ago.
Jiang Yan forcibly broke open the Sword Seal, causing the Sword Soul to possess him. Due to his shallow cultivation, his mind was controlled by the Sword Soul.
Jiang Yan's mind was compromised, and he forcibly used the Sword Spirit. He originally thought he could become a Spirit Master, but he instead fell into demonhood.
However, Jiang Yan was severely injured, and he couldn't save anyone.
Finally, Jiang Yan's meridians were shattered, his head suffered a severe impact, causing him to lose all consciousness, and even the most skilled Medicine Sovereign was helpless.
"Jiang Yan probably won't be able to cultivate anymore. This isn't good news for him," the Medicine Sovereign said with a grim Face, gasping for a breath of cold air.
Upon receiving this news, Jiang Zeng felt even more remorseful.
"Then Master can't cultivate? What will he do in the future!" Jiang Yan was utterly helpless. At this moment, a cold glint flashed in his eyes, and his heart ached even more.
If he hadn't been so willful back then, insisting on returning, there wouldn't have been such a result.
All of this was Jiang Zeng's fault!
"Master! I was wrong!" Jiang Zeng knelt heavily before the bed, already a tearful mess.
But Jiang Zeng was helpless; even crying wouldn't make Jiang Yan stand up properly. He had already become a cripple.
And all of this was Jiang Zeng's doing. He didn't want this, but the outcome had already become this way.
Furthermore, if it weren't for Master Jiang and the Tianxuan Sect having some connections, these Jiang Family Disciples probably wouldn't even have a place to stay!
The dignified Jiang Family ultimately ended up in such a plight.
It truly was sorrowful!
"You ungrateful Rebellious Disciple who betrayed your Master and destroyed your ancestors, how dare you come to Nangong Pavilion!"
Suddenly, a furious roar came. Hearing these words, Jiang Zeng couldn't help but shiver, then looked in the direction of the sound.
Jiang Yifei wore a simple white Daoist robe, his hair tied up with a bamboo hairpin, giving him an extraordinary aura.
This person unconsciously gave off a sense of oppression. He gasped for a breath of cold air, feeling utterly helpless.
Jiang Zeng naturally knew this person; he was Jiang Yifei, the Pavilion Master of Tianxuan Sect.
"Your injuries haven't healed yet; you should go back and rest early." The Medicine Sovereign raised his hand to gently help Jiang Zeng up, then turned to the person next to him and said, "Little Yi, you've just taken over as Nangong Pavilion Master and are busy with affairs. Leave this to me; you go ahead and attend to your own matters."
The Medicine Sovereign knew Jiang Yifei's nature; the matter of the Jiang Manor was a great blow to him.
If Jiang Yifei came here, he would surely vent all his anger on Jiang Zeng.
This was not what the Medicine Sovereign wanted to see, nor did he want such a thing to happen.
"Medicine Sovereign, there's no need to shield this Rebellious Disciple! Regardless of whether Jiang Zeng was controlled mentally at the time, it's a fact that he brought the people from Mulan Manor here!" Jiang Yifei raised a finger at Jiang Zeng, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and said in a deep voice.
"This brat should be scorned by the world!"
"The Jiang Family ended up like this, isn't it all because of Jiang Zeng!"
"If the Jiang Family didn't have Jiang Zeng, it wouldn't have become like this at all!"
Jiang Yifei clenched his fists tightly, a cold glint erupting in his eyes, and at this moment...
The Medicine Sovereign sighed deeply, feeling utterly helpless.
However, what was done was done, and there was nothing that could be changed by talking about it now.
"Little Yi, the Tianxuan Sect's internal stability is precarious right now; don't cause any more trouble!"
Donggong Medicine Sovereign thought highly of Jiang Zeng and originally wanted to recruit him as a Personal Disciple. Seeing Jiang Yifei trying to stir up trouble, he naturally wouldn't stand idly by.
"I told you, go attend to your own matters first; you're not needed here."
Besides, the Medicine Sovereign and the Jiang Family still had some connections.
Even if Jiang Zeng made a mistake, he couldn't just be driven out like that.
Jiang Zeng was still a member of the Jiang Family; he had to work for the Jiang Family.
"Medicine Sovereign, please don't interfere!" Jiang Yifei naturally understood the Medicine Sovereign's thoughts and casually replied, "Jiang Zeng, this rebellious son of the Jiang Family, must be punished!"
"If it weren't for Jiang Zeng, where would the Jiang Family be!"
As Jiang Yifei said this, he clenched his fists tightly.
A month ago.
If Jiang Yifei hadn't been at Tianxuan Sect, with the Jiang Manor destroyed, he wouldn't have escaped unscathed.
Jiang Zeng also wanted to save the Jiang Manor Disciples, but his strength was insufficient to do anything.
This was also a heavy blow to Jiang Zeng.
"No matter what, I am your Junior Martial Uncle, and Jiang Yan and I are very close. Who in this Tianxuan Sect doesn't know that Donggong Pavilion and Nangong Pavilion are one family?" Donggong Medicine Sovereign stood up, gently moved a few steps, and stared at Jiang Yifei.
This fellow was indeed too rude. If it weren't for the Sect Master's Face...
He would surely teach this brat a good lesson!
