149: Family feud

Cangzhou City, Jin Family.

When that Jin Xuan Guard, disheveled, returned to the Jin Family and conveyed Jiang Chen's words, everyone was shocked.

The Jin Family's Patriarch, Jintie City, upon receiving Jin Zhaolun's identity token, his face turned ashen.

Who killed Jin Zhaoxuan? Perhaps only Ling Jianglong knew, so now, at all costs, they needed to find Ling Jianglong, as the true objective was the demonic sky flower.

Only by obtaining the demonic sky flower could they preserve the Jin Family's current status.

If the Fenglan Sword Sect were to directly withdraw those Alchemists, their Jin Family would absolutely not be able to maintain its current market share.

The Fenglan Sword Sect's ability to occupy such a powerful and absolutely dominant position in Cangzhou City was precisely because the Alchemists dispatched by the Fenglan Sword Sect helped the Jin Family gradually grow stronger.

But on one hand, they had to work for the Fenglan Sword Sect.

On the other hand, the Jin Family's dignity naturally needed to be upheld.

Moreover, the other person who died was also his son.

Jin Zhaolun's life was also a life!

He even began to suspect if there was another group of people involved, otherwise, at least with Qi Baifeng's ability, he wouldn't have been so easily eliminated.

"This Jiang Chen, there must be something wrong with him!"

"He might be a spy sent to secretly erode our Jin Family's strength."

"Patriarch, this matter is certainly a trick! That Jiang Chen dared to be so arrogant and speak such harsh words, it's clear he's already planned some sinister scheme!"

"We investigated this person's background, but couldn't find anything. His background is very clean, but the cleaner the background, the more problematic it is!"

A group of Jin Family Elders also spoke up.

Regarding a newly appeared enemy, the Elders did not lose their heads; instead, they dealt with it calmly.

Because it wasn't their sons who were killed.

They were even secretly excited; with the death of the Patriarch's two sons, at the very least, their descendants would have more and greater opportunities.

They probably hadn't even thought of it.

The turning point of events would come so suddenly.

It just came.

For a time, this also caused all the Elders to harbor their own ulterior motives.

Jintie City heard the words of the Elders and did not get angry; his eyes were merely cold.

"If my Jin Family is stepped on like this without any response, then even if we become the number one Family in the Great Lan Dynasty, what good is it!?"

"If we cannot protect the Family's dignity, how can we protect the clansmen!"

Jintie City said coldly.

Then, without waiting for the other Elders to offer advice, he spoke first.

"Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, Sixth Elder!"

"The three of you, lead three teams of Jin Xuan Guards."

"Additionally, bring the younger generation from your three Families."

"Whoever can bring back Jiang Chen's head can be nominated as the next Patriarch candidate."

Jintie City's words greatly surprised everyone.

Although Jintie City's two sons had died, Jintie City could still have more children!

The children he bore would still be the first in line of succession.

But they hadn't expected Jintie City to be willing to release the Patriarch candidate spot so quickly.

Originally, they were still thinking, and even discussing, how to make Jintie City speak, but unexpectedly, Jintie City's move made them overjoyed.

Especially the Third Elder, Fourth Elder, and Fifth Elder.

These three were originally the more robust direct collateral branches within the Jin Family.

The most difficult problem was now solved easily!

The others also looked over with envy.

The three Elders' eyes lit up with excitement at this moment. They exchanged glances, expressed their excitement, and at the same time, secretly competed, planning to quickly make a strategy to come out on top in this operation.

Before Jintie City released the nomination, the three of them were essentially a united front, but now that Jintie City had vacated the candidate spot, their Alliance instantly disintegrated.

The Grand Elder and Second Elder, who had already seen through all of this, exchanged glances and remained silent.

Even if those three also saw through the Patriarch's intentions, what did it matter? Even if there truly was such an intention, they still had to do it; they simply had no choice.

Three teams of Jin Xuan Guards, each team consisting of twenty people.

Three teams totaled sixty people!

Within the entire Jin Family, the Jin Xuan Guards numbered no more than three hundred.

Last time, Jiang Chen annihilated one team, and a small detachment was also wiped out before Eagle Beak Ridge.

This time, another sixty people were dispatched, showing Jintie City's determination to kill Jiang Chen.

"You go too. When the Elders take down Jiang Chen, you must make that Jiang Chen open his eyes wide and see clearly the consequences of being an enemy of my Jin Family!"

Jintie City's gaze fell upon the Jin Xuan Guard who had escaped back.

This person was named Jin Li Jia, and he was considered to have a relatively close Bloodline, but it was difficult to say which branch he specifically belonged to.

Having narrowly escaped death this time, Jintie City did not heavily punish him.

Upon hearing this, Jin Li Jia knew that the Patriarch had let him off, and he quickly bowed in gratitude to Jintie City.

"Patriarch, rest assured, I will definitely make that Jiang Chen understand!"

"Those who offend my Jin Family shall suffer a fate worse than death!"

Jin Li Jia said in a deep voice.

"The rest of you, continue to assist the Wuzui Sect in excavating the third Earth-Rank Demon Cave."

Jintie City said.

Cangzhou City originally had two Earth-Rank Demon Caves, and what Jintie City and his group were now excavating was named the Third Demon Cave.

Its location was set in the Mengyin Mountain Range.

However, the Black Yamen of Cangzhou City reacted very quickly this time and had already begun to investigate the Mengyin Mountain Range.

Therefore, the speed had to be accelerated, otherwise, it would be difficult to explain to the Fenglan Sword Sect.

For a time, the three Elders of the Jin Family were all full of vigor, and at the same time, each with their own ulterior motives, began to count their forces, and also thought about how they could take down Jiang Chen in the fastest time!

Take down Jiang Chen!?

At this moment, Zhao Ming and Zhao Yong on Yingzui Peak.

They were instantly stunned when they saw this scene before them.

The Holy Maiden of Tian Po Sect had just given an order, causing almost all the top experts of the entire Tian Po Sect to rush out at the same time.

Six Protectors!

Three Elders!

Two Vajras!

A total of eleven people.

These people were all well-known figures in the Jianghu.

Their own strength was extremely powerful, and several of them had even committed shocking major crimes within Cangzhou City.

Zhao Ming and the other originally thought that Jiang Chen was either doomed to die or would face a bitter struggle.

But they saw that Jiang Chen merely swung his saber once.

The terrifying Earth Vein Qi, along with the Saber Glow and Saber Intent unleashed by Jiang Chen's Black Gold Blood Moon Blade, erupted wildly.

In an instant, there was a scene of heaven and earth collapsing and Physical Body shattering.

For a moment, flesh and severed limbs were scattered everywhere!

One saber strike!

It killed eleven top experts of the Tian Po Sect!

Those eleven people were like scarecrows.

They were directly shattered by Jiang Chen's single saber strike.

Not only that.

The swirling Saber Qi unleashed by the Saber Glow continued to advance forward, killing these Tian Po Sect members one after another.

In the blink of an eye, fewer than ten people remained standing.

"Damn it!"

"Jiang Chen, I won't spare you!"

The Holy Maiden of Tian Po Sect roared upon seeing this.

At the same time, she leaped up, actually charging towards the dried corpse below.

Although Jiang Chen had enough time to stop her, he was not in a hurry, waiting for the Holy Maiden of Tian Po Sect to cause some commotion so he could gain more cultivation value.
