245: When the storm comes, Jiang Lin takes action

“To be honest, your arrangements truly astonished me!”

“Consolidating the Qin Sect’s business, relying on the Dao Heaven Sect and the Jiang Family, and secretly accumulating strength—the Sima Family really can’t do anything to the Qin Sect!”

“But that doesn’t mean the Sima Family can’t do anything to you!”

“You want to Breakthrough Void Refining and achieve Body Integration?”

“You probably won’t have the chance!”

“Don’t struggle!”

“You can’t even die now!”

“I will send you to that Sima Huai, to be a captive to be played with by anyone!”

Saying this, Zhao Manman walked over step by step, stepping on Zhang Wanmeng’s body, looking down at her from above with an arrogant demeanor.

“You abolished my Divine Ability, erased my memories, weren’t you very arrogant?”

“What does it feel like to be betrayed by the person you trusted most?”

Zhang Wanmeng did not speak, her Divine Sense connecting to the Zhang Family’s distress Talisman and the Dao Heaven Sect’s Dao Child Token.

The messages were sent, but there was no response.

“Distress signal?”

“Don’t worry, the Zhang Family won’t come to save you!”

“The Dao Heaven Sect won’t come to save you either!”

“And that last Qin Sect Guardian won’t come either!”

“Do you want to hear the voices of your father, the Dao Heaven Sect’s Grand Elder, and the Qin Sect’s last Guardian?”

Zhao Manman bent down and mocked Zhang Wanmeng in her ear.

At the same time, three recording Talismans sounded together.

“Within three days, my virtuous nephew can rest assured in pursuing my daughter; we elders will not interfere!”

“Brother Sima, you can do as you please; I will find a way to handle it!”

“Don’t worry, as long as Zhang Wanmeng dies, I will announce the activation of the backup plan and nominate you as the new Young Sect Leader!”

The first was Zhang Wenyuan’s voice, the middle was the Dao Heaven Sect’s Grand Elder’s words, and the last was the Qin Sect Guardian’s voice.

Zhang Wanmeng’s face was deathly pale, she bit her lip, her eyes filled with disbelief.

This was what she had sacrificed everything for?

Since she could remember, her entire life had been spent working for the Qin Sect, the Zhang Family, and the Dao Heaven Sect.

Now, she was abandoned by everyone!

Why??

Why!!

I worked so hard!

Why did it turn out this way?

......

Boom!

In the sky above the capital, a huge thunderclap flashed.

The next moment, rain poured down, taking advantage of the approaching night.

Jiang Lin stretched out his hand, raindrops slid across his slender fingers and fell below the pavilion.

“Young Lord, isn’t treating her like this a bit cruel?”

Shangguan Yaoyao obediently poured tea for Jiang Lin, her face filled with heartache.

Jiang Lin’s face showed no expression as he picked up the teacup and gazed into the distance.

His gaze was deep, as if it crossed the Void Realm, looking towards that “dirty” alley.

“Cruel?”

“She lived too tiring a life; I am helping her find liberation!”

“Those who cultivate the Qin Dao are most sensitive to the seven emotions and six desires!”

“The more sensitive they are, the more they care!”

“Her Revered Master is truly a Genius; the Dao of ruthlessness is truly the most suitable path for the Qin Dao!”

Shangguan Yaoyao worriedly said, “Young Lord, aren’t you afraid of driving her mad and making her fall into depravity?”

Jiang Lin’s lips curved upwards: “Fall into depravity?”

“That’s good too!”

“In this vast world, there isn’t a renowned sound Devil Head yet; perhaps she can become one!”

Shangguan Yaoyao took a deep breath, her heart trembling.

After all this time,

Jiang Lin was still that venomous snake!

He wouldn’t act unless necessary, but once he did, he would leave no room for the opponent to survive.

Thump, thump, thump!

Urgent footsteps approached from afar.

“Young Lord, it’s all arranged!”

“All the designated people have infiltrated the Qin Sect’s main base, Forget-Love Valley!”

“The Qin Sect’s last Guardian is drinking with Sima Huai at the Drunk Life Dream Death Tower!”

“The Dao Heaven Sect and the imperial court’s surveillance Formations were all shut down today; we were completely undetected!”

Jiang Liu entered the study and reported to Jiang Lin.

Jiang Lin nodded, and said indifferently, “Begin. In Forget-Love Valley, leave no one behind!”

“Make the scene a bit more bloody!”

“Oh, and Destroying Affection Supreme cannot die yet!”

“Make her enter a state of suspended animation, just shatter her life token. This person can be used to control Zhang Wanmeng later!”

Shangguan Yaoyao’s hand trembled, and she said with great heartache:

“The remaining people in Forget-Love Valley are all the most loyal to the Qin Sect!”

“When Zhang Wanmeng sees this, she’s definitely going to go crazy!”

Jiang Lin ignored Shangguan Yaoyao’s words, put down his cup,

A wooden token, inscribed with the characters “Zhang Family,” appeared in his hand out of thin air!

The next moment, a red figure appeared in the space.

Nether River Old Ancestor!

One of the Nine Demon Servants, Asura Blood Demon!

He stood respectfully before Jiang Lin, the patterns on his face intricate and complex.

Jiang Lin’s eyes were hazy, and red flames suddenly appeared on the wooden token in his hand.

“Go, let those people of the Zhang Family be buried together!!”

“Leave Zhang Wenyuan’s life, but completely erase this memory!”

“After all, hatred can only materialize when it has a target!”

A blood-red long river appeared, then suddenly vanished.

Shangguan Yaoyao was stunned,

Not even sparing the Zhang Family?

She unconsciously swallowed and said, “The Zhang Family is one of the Four Great Families enfeoffed by the imperial court; won’t this be discovered by the Heavenly Observation Pavilion?”

“If Zhang Wanmeng knew who made the move…”

Jiang Lin looked at the dazzling flames in his hand and shook his head, saying, “It doesn’t matter if they find out!”

“The ones who acted were from the Sima Family; what does that have to do with me, Jiang Lin?”

“No matter what, they won’t trace it back to me!”

Shangguan Yaoyao asked in confusion, “People from the Sima Family?”

Jiang Lin smiled and said, “The dead Sima Family member in Cloud Marsh, re-formed from the sea of blood!”

Hearing this, Shangguan Yaoyao unconsciously gasped.

Jiang Lin was still that Jiang Lin!

Ruthless, vicious, and unscrupulous!

After today, there would be another Devil Head in the world!

And, if nothing unexpected happened, that Devil Head would surely serve this mastermind with utmost devotion until death!

Shangguan Yaoyao withdrew her thoughts and said, “Yao’er congratulates Young Lord in advance on successfully taking over the Qin Sect!”

Jiang Lin threw the burning wooden token out the window.

Amidst the fusion of water and fire, the wooden token turned to ashes.

Jiang Lin picked up his teacup, his eyes distant, and said, “There’s still one last link…”

Shangguan Yaoyao was startled,

There’s still one more link?

......

In the dark alley,

Zhang Wanmeng’s face was pale, and her breath was weak.

Suddenly, the bells of Forget-Love Valley rang in her ears.

The scene of Forget-Love Valley appeared before her eyes.

Wind-element assassins, slaughtering Forget-Love!

Hundreds of miles of blood, a truly horrifying sight!

The next moment, she felt in her will,

Her Revered Master’s life token had actually shattered…

Zhang Wanmeng’s eyes widened in shock, she looked at Zhao Manman in disbelief, and screamed, “Zhao Manman, the Qin Sect has been kind to you no matter what, yet you actually want to exterminate the Qin Sect!”

Zhao Manman was startled, not understanding Zhang Wanmeng’s meaning.

Before she could react, Zhang Wanmeng directly crushed a worn-out Talisman,

The next moment, a powerful Qi current suddenly surged from her body, followed by a colorful halo.

The dagger shattered directly!

Zhao Manman was knocked back hundreds of meters, barely clinging to life!

At this moment, the guard immediately took action, a black longsword pointing directly at Zhang Wanmeng.

“Low Grade Divine Artifact, Soul-Reaping Sword!”

“The Sima Family truly thinks highly of me!”
