113: Coffin

Jiang Sheng was momentarily stunned upon hearing this and asked, "Who else is with him? Xiao Sheng didn't come, did he?"

Hearing Xiao Sheng's name, Jiang Donglin couldn't help but stop his attacks and began to retreat.

He wanted to leave this gravity field and escape quickly.

Jiang Tianlong was, after all, only his nephew and not his own son; there was no need to risk his life for him.

However, the man continued to shout while panting under the gravitational pressure, "No, it's just Su Ze and an ordinary Great Xia Spirit Guard, that's all."

"Only the two of them?" Jiang Sheng confirmed once more, finding it hard to believe.

The man nodded with certainty.

Jiang Sheng instantly became excited. "Haha, good! This kid actually dares to come here alone. Does he really think that statue can protect his miserable life no matter where he is?"

"Perfect. Today, I'll deal with Su Ze and Guo Linshan together right here to appease my son's spirit in heaven!"

He was extremely excited. He had originally thought he could only kill Guo Linshan to alleviate some of the hatred in his heart, but he hadn't expected Su Ze to follow as well.

Now all his enemies were here, and he could wipe them all out in one go!

Just then, Su Ze followed the footsteps of the messenger and arrived.

This concentric circular area located in the city center was still massive, and almost every road ended here, leading to the center from different angles.

If he hadn't followed that person, Su Ze really wouldn't have known how long it would take to find this place on his own.

As soon as Su Ze appeared, he felt a gaze filled with intense hatred fixed upon him.

"Su Ze! I didn't expect you to actually dare to come!" Jiang Sheng said through gritted teeth.

Su Ze replied with a smile, "Why wouldn't I dare to come? Your father was beaten back to nurse his wounds; would I still be afraid of his son?"

"Hmph! That was because you borrowed the power of Xiao Sheng's Stone Statue. I want to see if that Stone Statue can save you in time now!"

Su Ze raised an eyebrow. "Oh? So you're admitting on your father's behalf that the person who caused the disturbance in Beishan City and finally tried to ambush me was him?"

He showed his phone, which was recording, and said, "This is a serious crime. How about I exchange this for the recording you took of Tao Lin trading for the quenching thought bead?"

Seeing this, Jiang Sheng mocked, "Haha, naive. So what if I admit it? Don't even think about leaving here alive with that information today!"

Hearing this, Su Ze shrugged and said, "In fact, I was thinking the same thing! I was just teasing you a moment ago."

He had never considered an exchange, whether for himself, for Guo Linshan, or for Tao Lin.

Neither of the Jiang Family brothers would leave this place alive today.

Jiang Sheng had already taken the lead. He quickly left the pressure zone, a short spear shimmering with a faint black luster in his hand as he lunged straight at Su Ze.

In his excited gaze, he seemed to already see the image of Su Ze being pierced by his poison spear, struggling in pain until he dissolved into bloody water.

Of course, he wasn't so carried away that he forgot to be on guard.

After all, the fact that Su Ze dared to show up here alone was suspicious in itself. Could it be that Xiao Sheng had prepared a hidden sentry for him nearby?

Therefore, Jiang Donglin did not make a move, instead staying behind Jiang Sheng to guard the surroundings.

But what they hadn't expected was that the one they should be guarding against wasn't the surroundings, but Su Ze himself!

Accompanied by the brilliant flash of a contract formation, a wave of scorching heat swept across the field.

"This is... the Golden Feather Phoenix Bird?! Your Diamond-rank Demonic Beast isn't dead?" Jiang Sheng's eyes widened as he watched himself lunge into the Phoenix Fire feathers.

Initially, he hadn't thought much of it. After all, according to previous intelligence, Su Ze's Diamond-rank Demonic Beast had only grown to a point where it could barely fight a Beast Tamer in their sixties.

But Jiang Sheng soon sensed something was wrong... "Wait, this fire... Ah! Why... it shouldn't... it shouldn't be like this... Ah!"

The crimson Phoenix Fire burned everything, both tangible and intangible.

Even the gravity field on the outskirts of the Starfall Pit was no exception, being weakened by a level.

Guo Linshan also breathed a sigh of relief because of this.

"This kid's Diamond-rank Demonic Beast really didn't die... but two-on-one is still difficult. No, I have to help him!" Ignoring the sharp pain in his right foot, Guo Linshan wanted to command the Gravity Ape King to fight alongside Su Ze.

Then he saw that in just one encounter, Jiang Sheng was sent flying, covered in flames.

The inextinguishable Phoenix Fire clung to his body like a maggot on a bone, making him roll on the ground in agony, yet it would not go out.

Amidst the wails, his aura began to grow weaker and weaker... Meanwhile, not long ago at the Jiang Family in the Imperial Capital, Jiang Liu, who had finally healed his injuries with the help of the Ancestor's power, stepped out of the secret room.

After a brief wash, he called over a subordinate to ask about his two sons.

"What did you say? They went to find Guo Linshan?" Jiang Liu frowned, feeling deeply uneasy about this news for some reason.

"Yes, and new information just came in saying that Su Ze also went to the Starfall Pit, even giving up the benefits of the Beast Taming Grand Competition for it."

Jiang Liu immediately stood up, his brow furrowed. After these few encounters, he knew clearly that Su Ze was actually very afraid of death and was not someone who would put himself in a dangerous situation.

Previously, it had seemed like he had lured Su Ze out of the city to ambush him, but in reality, he was the one who had been played.

Su Ze knew he was within the protective range of the Stone Statue and only then thought of luring him out to settle things once and for all.

Now that Su Ze had gone to the Starfall Pit without hesitation, it meant he was confident he could deal with his two sons.

"But where does his confidence come from... Could it be that Xiao Sheng just happens to be near the Starfall Pit?" The more he thought, the more uneasy he became.

When he looked up, he found he had paced his way to a secret hidden door.

This was one of the most mysterious places in the entire Jiang Family, where very few people were permitted to enter.

Only a few people on a specific list could go there.

And the one who had drawn up this list was not a member of the Jiang Family.

Jiang Liu pushed the door open and walked in. The door was not locked, and there was no one guarding it.

Because a supreme expert guarded this place year-round.

Inside the door was a dim room, with only a small amount of light falling from the ceiling to illuminate an exquisite crystal sarcophagus in the center.

Outside the sarcophagus, several thick tree roots hanging from above showered down bits of emerald starlight that continuously merged into it.

Inside the sarcophagus was a young woman of exquisite beauty, dressed in a white veil but with a bloodless face.

And a figure was leaning over the sarcophagus, quietly looking down.

Precisely because he stayed here almost constantly to accompany the sarcophagus and rarely went out, he appeared mysterious, to the point that no one even knew what he looked like.

Jiang Liu bowed slightly to the figure and said, "My two sons may be in danger. I hope you can take action."
