23: I hate people who have no sense of boundaries

The Yang Family was annihilated.

The news quickly spread throughout Wenxian City, causing a huge stir.

The law enforcers of the City Lord's Mansion received the news immediately and led their people to the scene.

Soon, the angry voice of a law enforcer spread across half the city!

"Who dares to commit such a heinous act of extermination in Wenxian City? They deserve to be executed!"

"Immediately issue a wanted order to apprehend the true culprit!"

Following this, countless forces sent people to investigate.

Upon seeing the tragic state of the Yang Family, everyone was shocked and their scalps tingled!

As the news continued to spread, soon, an informed source broke the news.

It was claimed that the Yang Family had offended someone they shouldn't have, and to appease the anger, the City Lord personally led the way to annihilate the Yang Family.

Upon the release of this news,

It once again shocked the entire Wenxian City.

The demise of the Yang Family caused most people to cheer, while a portion of others began to stir.

The Yang Family's assets were a juicy piece of meat, and everyone wanted a bite.

For a time, undercurrents surged and events unfolded in Wenxian City.

...

Inside the Heavenly Chamber No. 1 of Drunken Immortal Wine.

Qu Zhiyin and the other person were very fast.

As soon as Jiang Qingchen stepped in, they followed right behind him.

"So fast?"

Jiang Qingchen was a bit surprised. Is annihilating a Family so efficient now?

"It's just a small Family, full of good-for-nothings, easily defeated!"

Although she had just entered the Faxiang Realm, her years of accumulation had given her a deep Foundation.

She was not comparable to trash Faxiang Realm cultivators like the Yang Family Old Ancestor, who relied on Medicinal Pills.

"That's true!" Jiang Qingchen agreed wholeheartedly. From the Azure Moon Faxiang that Qu Zhiyin condensed, it was evident that she was not simple. She must have obtained some Opportunity over the years!

As he spoke, he looked at Xue Ning, his face sinking.

"No, why did you follow?"

This guy too, has no sense of awareness!

Xue Ning looked awkward, even a little wronged. "Sir, I just don't have anywhere to go..."

He had personally participated in the annihilation of the Yang Family, so he couldn't be this City Lord anymore.

Moreover, his purpose in coming here was to find Jiang Qingchen. Now that he had finally found him, he naturally had to follow him!

"Nowhere to go? If you have nowhere to go, you just follow along to freeload? Doesn't it cost money?" Jiang Qingchen was displeased and immediately started scolding him.

After speaking, he muttered, "I hate people who have no sense of boundaries the most..."

Xue Ning's face was full of bitterness. Even a person like him dared not refute Jiang Qingchen in the slightest.

He thought for a moment, then spoke with some apprehension, "Sir, how about this meal is on me? It just so happens to be a welcoming feast for you."

Xue Ning looked at Jiang Qingchen, originally thinking he would still be rejected. He had already prepared to leave.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qingchen's previously stern face instantly brightened with joy.

"You should have said you were treating earlier!"

"A Family doesn't talk about two families; this almost caused a misunderstanding, didn't it?!"

"Come, come, sit down!"

Are you kidding? How could he miss such a good thing as someone treating!

"Oh, oh, oh, alright, Sir!" Xue Ning was overjoyed and quickly sat down, even a little nervous.

Qu Zhiyin and the others watched, dumbfounded.

His face changed too quickly!

What the hell is a Family?

This is like eating wire and pulling a colander—truly able to fabricate.

The key is.

Why does he, the City Lord, look like such a bootlicker?

Indeed, he has no sense of boundaries at all.

Butler Fu secretly observed Jiang Qingchen, his gaze unusual, somewhat worried.

This Revered Master of the Young Revered Master looks a bit unreliable.

Perhaps sensing that someone was looking at him, Jiang Qingchen suddenly turned his head and looked at Butler Fu.

"Alright, everyone's matters are settled. Next is your matter."

Everyone's gaze converged.

Ye Fojian also remembered this matter and asked in confusion, "That's right, Butler Fu, what are you doing here?"

Speaking of this,

Butler Fu's face instantly turned ugly, and a surge of anger appeared in his eyes.

He said angrily, "Young Revered Master, this is what happened!"

"A month ago, the Star Plucking Holy Land sent an invitation, specifically naming you to attend the wedding of the Star Plucking Holy Son and that hussy Liu Qinxin at the Star Plucking Holy Land."

"They even threatened that if you didn't go, they would annihilate the Ye Family!"

"The Family truly had no choice but to send this old servant to find you, Young Revered Master, and ask you to return!"

Crack!

Ye Fojian crushed the teacup in his hand, his face darkening.

Mentioning Liu Qinxin, his anger flared up, wishing he could kill that hussy!

"This damned woman, is she so eager to humiliate me!"

Ye Fojian's voice squeezed out from his throat, full of rage.

Jiang Qingchen looked at Ye Fojian's emotional fluctuations, and he had some guesses in his heart.

Liu Qinxin?

She should be the fiancée of my disciple, right?

Hmph, breaking off the engagement is one thing.

But she even colluded with others to seize her fiancé's Innate Sword Body Origin and abolish his cultivation.

Now, she even wants to humiliate him in this way.

There has never been such a despicable person!

And...

Star Plucking Holy Land!

Thinking of this, some unpleasant memories began to attack him again.

It seems I need to find some time to visit the Star Plucking Holy Land!

Butler Fu looked at the suffering Young Revered Master. Although his heart ached, he was helpless.

The other party's power was too great, far beyond what they could resist.

He sighed, "Young Revered Master, although this matter is cruel to you, for the sake of the Family, this old servant still hopes you can go and endure this matter..."

Ye Fojian took a deep breath, and it took a long time for him to calm his inner turmoil. He gritted his teeth and said, "Butler Fu, I know what to do!"

"When does their wedding begin?"

Butler Fu calculated and replied, "There's still half a month..."

"Good, I understand!" Ye Fojian looked sullen.

No matter how resentful he was, for the sake of the Family, he had to endure!

Thump thump thump...

A crisp knocking sound echoed in the private room.

Everyone's gaze turned to Jiang Qingchen.

"Fojian, tell me the specifics."

Jiang Qingchen spoke.

Since it was his disciple's matter, then it was his own matter.

Although he was somewhat cautious, he couldn't just watch his disciple be humiliated.

Even... a Holy Land wouldn't do!

Ye Fojian looked at his Revered Master, and a glint of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

That's right.

How could he forget, Revered Master is still here!

His original anger and depression vanished.

He quickly recounted the entire sequence of events.

From childhood sweethearts, to the broken engagement, then to his cultivation being abolished, and his Origin being taken.

He spoke every single detail.

Qu Zhiyin, listening from the side, couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

This was simply too much.

Moreover, how could a woman like Liu Qinxin be so vicious and malicious?

She inadvertently glanced at Jiang Qingchen.

It seemed her Junior Brother, back then, was even more miserable than this.

He was rejected by over a dozen forces, and then people even came to his door to mock him.

Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered something.

She recalled that among the forces that broke off engagements, the Star Plucking Holy Land was one!

Indeed, enemies often meet. No wonder Junior Brother was so concerned.

Her eyes flashed with a cold light, and she snorted inwardly.

Hmph, Star Plucking Holy Land, I will make you pay the price sooner or later!

She thought for a moment, then spoke.

"Junior Brother, how about this? Let me accompany Senior Nephew there, to prevent him from being bullied!"

Ye Fojian was deeply moved.

Jiang Qingchen listened, but did not show too much emotion.

He shook his head.

"Senior Sister, matters here in Wenxian City still require your handling. The person behind the Yang Family must have a high position within the Sect."

"Moreover, the purpose of these people supporting the Yang Family is probably not simple."

"It must be thoroughly investigated, otherwise, it will be detrimental to the Sect's development."

He knew some things about the Yang Family back then, but due to being delayed by some matters, he didn't continue to investigate deeply.

But he hadn't lived for two hundred years for nothing.

He knew some things far more clearly than the Sect Master and the others!

Qu Zhiyin was silent for a moment, feeling that what Jiang Qingchen said was not without reason.

"Then, what about Junior Nephew Ye? What do you plan to do?"

Jiang Qingchen pointed at Xue Ning.

"What's there to worry about? Isn't there still a living person here?"

"Xue Ning, I'm asking you for a favor. You wouldn't refuse, would you!"

"Sir, just command me!" Xue Ning agreed without thinking, and his heart was so happy he wanted to cry.

Boo hoo, he finally had a chance to repay his kindness!

Jiang Qingchen nodded in satisfaction, "It's not a big deal, just trouble you to accompany this boy to the Star Plucking Holy Land."

"Yes, Sir, leave this matter to me!" Xue Ning said confidently.

After Jiang Qingchen made the arrangements, he turned to Ye Fojian, "Fojian, your Revered Master still has some matters to attend to here. You go to the Star Plucking Holy Land with this boy Xue Ning first, and I will appear when necessary."

"Remember the rules of Wudao Peak that I told you."

Ye Fojian understood that this was a test for him.

"Yes, Revered Master, Fojian will remember!"

After all this was done, he finally let out a big sigh of relief, then said in a joyful mood.

"Alright, everything is settled. Now everyone, eat to your heart's content!"

Everyone was speechless.

How could they still be in the mood to eat now?
