"At that time, we won't have to worry about Xiao Lin not submitting to you obediently."
"Understood."
After a moment of contemplation, Jiang Wang nodded in response: "Xiao Lingyun's father is a direct descendant of the Xiao family. As long as I capture Xiao Yunshan..."
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Jiang Wang frowned: "Something's not right. Xiao Yunshan isn't in the city. It's said he went to the border of the Qingxuan Kingdom with Xiao Lin?"
"Xiao Lin went to the Qingxuan Kingdom?"
Jiang Wang's father raised an eyebrow slightly, then a smile crept onto his lips: "Hehe, this is truly a godsend opportunity!"
"Immediately send a message to the family's higher-ups, notify the Xiao family, and make sure to wipe out all the branch families of the Xiao family, including Xiao Lingyun and Xiao Yunhai, tonight."
Hearing this, Jiang Wang nodded and immediately sent the message.
Not long after, at the Xiao family residence in Qingxuan City.
"Third Miss, something terrible has happened."
In a courtyard, Xiao Lin's mother, Xiao Qiuxue, anxiously shouted: "Jiang Wang is leading the Jiang family experts and has completely surrounded us. Not even a fly can escape."
"Jiang Wang?"
Xiao Lingyun frowned: "What kind of trouble is that bastard causing again?"
"He wants us to hand over the Burning Sun Heart Refining Cauldron!"
Xiao Qiuxue said solemnly: "He also said that only Xiao Lingyu is worthy of possessing the Burning Sun Heart Refining Cauldron, and wants you to hand it over!"
"Hmph," Xiao Yun coldly snorted in anger.
"It seems he's preparing to make a move."
Xiao Lingyu pondered for a moment, then raised his eyes and scanned everyone: "You all hide in the secret chamber and conceal yourselves well."
"I will end the battle in the shortest amount of time and return to Qingxuan City."
"Uncle Xiao Yun, you must be careful. Don't be impulsive, lest you fall into an abyss of no return," Xiao Ling said worriedly.
"Don't worry, a mere Jiang Wang can't stir up any waves."
Lightly patting Xiao Ling's shoulder, Xiao Lingyu finished speaking with a faint smile, then leaped into the air and headed towards the Jiang family.
...
Qingxuan City, Jiang family's residence.
In the spacious and luxurious council hall, Jiang Wang sat upright in the main seat, a look of arrogance on his face.
On his left and right sides, the Jiang family's higher-ups were seated.
"Family Head,"
The Jiang family's patriarch, Jiang Heng, respectfully saluted, and then said: "According to the information we have, the Burning Sun Heart Refining Cauldron should have been taken away by that young man named Xiao Lin."
"That little beast is not simple. With just three moves, he defeated Jiang Wang and the five great elders."
Jiang Heng continued: "Although he won by sneak attack, he was still able to send Jiang Wang and the five great elders flying with three punches. His strength is very considerable. We need to carefully consider whether to directly deal with him."
Jiang Wang waved his hand and said: "Although this kid is powerful, he only has the cultivation of a ninth-rank Martial Apprentice, while I am a ninth-rank Martial Master. He can't do anything to me."
Jiang Heng asked: "Since the Family Head feels there is no problem, then let me gather the family experts."
Jiang Wang waved his hand to signal: "Begin the operation."
Then Jiang Heng got up and left the hall.
After about the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, Jiang Heng returned to the hall and bowed respectfully: "Reporting to the Family Head, all the family experts have gathered."
Jiang Wang nodded, then stood up and walked straight out of the hall.
The Jiang family experts, a total of more than six hundred people, followed Jiang Wang in a mighty manner towards the Xiao family residence.
This time, Jiang Wang led the Jiang family experts, obviously preparing to strike at the root, completely eliminate Xiao Lin, cut off the Xiao family's foundation, and prevent Xiao Lin from having any chance of making a comeback.
Chapter 1390: Comeback
However, what Jiang Wang found strange was that he did not find any trace of Xiao Lingyu outside the Xiao family residence.
Outside the Xiao family residence, Xiao Lin stood with his hands behind his back, quietly standing on the branch of an ancient tree.
His gaze pierced through the void, locked onto the Jiang family army, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "These wastes are really impatient."
Swoosh~~~
At this moment, a dazzling golden light suddenly bloomed in the distant void.
Immediately afterwards, a palm-sized bronze treasure cauldron broke through the void and descended beside Xiao Lin.
The surface of the treasure cauldron was engraved with various mysterious runes, releasing a rich and pure aura of flames.
It was the Burning Sun Heart Refining Cauldron!
Xiao Lin did not hesitate, reached out and grabbed the treasure cauldron, then leaped down from the treetop and threw it out like lightning.
Bang~
The treasure cauldron flew out of his hand, turned into a meteor and cut through the sky, smashing into the Jiang family's camp, and immediately a series of explosions sounded, and smoke filled the air.
"Who?"
Jiang Wang's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly turned his head to look, and saw Xiao Lin flying through the air, and immediately shouted: "Xiao Lin, it's actually you!"
"How did you find this place?"
"Where is Xiao Yun?"
Xiao Lin questioned coldly, his eyes swept over everyone around, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he found that only Jiang Wang was alone.
"Hmph!"
Jiang Wang curled his lips and said: "Do you think you can hide from the sky by concealing your whereabouts? Let me tell you, we have already sent people to monitor the entire Qingxuan City, and you were exposed as soon as you left the Xiao family residence."
Xiao Lin stared at Jiang Wang coldly, his killing intent was fierce: "Jiang Wang, I won't argue with you, but you turn around and become aggressive. Could it be that you have forgotten how my father and eldest brother died tragically?"
"Haha, how could I forget?"
Jiang Wang laughed arrogantly: "Your father Xiao Zhan died at my hands, and your eldest brother Xiao Long also died at my hands. I will remember this blood feud for the rest of my life."
"As for that bastard Xiao Long, he is even less worthy of being mentioned."
While speaking, Jiang Wang took out a long sword from his storage ring, and said grimly: "If you know what's good for you, kneel down and beg for mercy immediately, and I might spare your dog life."
"Jiang Wang, has your head been kicked by a donkey?"
Xiao Lin squinted his eyes and sneered: "What makes you think that an eighth-rank Martial Master like you can beat me?"
Jiang Wang said gloomily: "I know you are very arrogant, and I don't mind playing with you. I hope you don't be a coward and be a shrinking turtle."
"Shrinking turtle? Hahaha..."
Xiao Lin laughed loudly: "With your kind of stuff, you are not qualified to be a shrinking turtle."
"How dare you!"
Jiang Wang was exasperated and angry, and shouted sharply: "Since you are seeking your own death, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Wang stepped on the sword gang, carrying the monstrous sword momentum, like an unparalleled sword immortal, and pounced on Xiao Lin.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh...
Almost at the same time as Jiang Wang approached, hundreds of sword lights suddenly emerged from the Xiao family residence, sweeping over the sky and covering the earth.
"Petty tricks!"
Jiang Wang was not afraid at all, raised his arm and shook it, and in an instant, the sky full of sword energy met the sword light.
Bang bang bang~~~
Along with a burst of explosions, the sword light was instantly annihilated, and Jiang Wang continued to pounce on Xiao Lin unscathed.
"Jiang Wang is indeed powerful, even more terrifying than Xiao Long."
Seeing Jiang Wang easily block all the sword lights, the light in Xiao Lin's eyes bloomed.
When he was in the Xiao family, Xiao Long was indeed much worse than Jiang Wang, but if the two of them fought to the death, Xiao Long could definitely win, and even had a great chance of killing Jiang Wang.
Of course, this is just a theoretical situation.
In the actual state, Jiang Wang is far superior to Xiao Long, and when the two fight, the outcome is still unknown.
"Xiao Lin's strength is not weaker than Jiang Wang, but he is too reckless, and actually ran to the Jiang family's door to die."
"If it were any other time, if the Xiao family encountered a crisis, they would definitely not dare to fight against the Jiang family, and would definitely choose to compromise and retreat. But Xiao Lin insisted on fighting hard, which is clearly to use Jiang Wang's hand to avenge himself!"
"It's a pity, I'm afraid his wishful thinking will fail."
"He thought that he could sweep the entire Qingxuan City by being promoted to the ninth-rank Martial Master, but he didn't know at all that Jiang Wang was a seventh-rank Martial Master, and his strength was even above Jiang Long."
More and more cultivators gathered outside the Xiao family residence, all staring at Xiao Lingyu with pity, shaking their heads.
Jiang Wang's speed was very fast, and he killed Xiao Lingyu in an instant.
Clang!
With a slash of his sword, he dispersed the iron rod swung by Xiao Lingyu, and then swept his leg horizontally, hitting Xiao Lingyu's chest hard.
Xiao Lingyu vomited blood on the spot and flew backwards, gliding for several feet before falling on the stone steps on the side of the street.
"Xiao Lin, you are too naive."
Jiang Wang mocked with a look of contempt: "If it weren't for me putting pressure on the Jiang family, how could you have lived to this day? Do you still think you can compete with the Jiang family by relying on the Xiao family? It's just wishful thinking!"
In his words, Jiang Wang walked in the air and slowly approached Xiao Lingyu.
Jiang Wang's strength is strong, and he can be called the top existence among the younger generation of disciples in the Xiao family.
Even those core disciples with extraordinary talents cannot compete with him.
"Senior Brother Jiang Wang is mighty, crush the pride of that kid Xiao Lin," the Jiang family experts shouted with their arms raised.
"Xiao Lin is dead this time!" The Jiang family elders looked cold.
