Chapter 148 The Jiang Family? An earthworm split vertically in two!
"That guy actually dared to come!"
"I saw it, can you guess what the final result was?"
"I bet a hundred taels that he'll be kicked out."
Around the Jiang residence, countless martial arts scouts whispered among themselves, discussing the situation at the entrance of the Jiang residence.
Ye Li looked at the guards on both sides with a calm expression, as if he were just there for sightseeing, and walked in with Su Xingcheng.
The massive gate of the mansion was like a giant beast with its mouth open, swallowing the two figures whole.
Ye Li stepped inside and looked around.
The mansion boasts deep courtyards, carved beams and painted rafters, and is extremely luxurious. The winding corridors, craggy rockeries, and exotic flowers and plants all showcase the heritage of this thousand-year-old family.
The guards who led the way brought the two to an extremely spacious and lavishly furnished reception room.
"Please wait here for a moment, the patriarch will be here shortly," the guard said, bowing deeply.
Ye Li nodded lightly, then found a chair and sat down as if no one else was there.
Reaching into the elegant fruit bowl on the small table beside him, he picked up a plump, glistening grape, slowly peeled off its skin, and put it in his mouth.
The juice bursts between your lips and teeth, sweet and slightly sour.
"By the way, Dean Su," Ye Li asked while tasting the food, "what does Jiang Chengyu look like? I'm afraid I won't recognize him when we meet."
Su Xingcheng sat to the side, puzzled as to why Ye Li suddenly asked this question. He then smiled and said, "Sect Master Jiang is incredibly heroic. He reached the peak of the Acquired Realm at the age of forty-five, but looks like he's in his thirties. He wears a purple ring with the character '宝' (treasure) on his finger. You'll understand when you see it."
"Oh—" Ye Li nodded in realization, silently memorizing Su Xingcheng's description.
Seeing Ye Li remain so calm, Su Xingcheng was secretly amazed.
Yesterday he was so hot-tempered, how come he changed his attitude today? Jiang Chengyu clearly stood him up, yet he didn't even show a hint of emotion.
"Could it be—he chickened out?" Su Xingcheng thought to himself.
Amid Su Xingcheng's suspicions, time slipped away silently.
Inside the incense burner, the sandalwood incense stick had burned down to almost nothing, and the grayish-white ash fell silently.
The sunlight outside the window also shifted slightly.
Apart from the occasional slight shift in weight by the maidservant standing in the corner, holding her breath, there was no other sound in the hall.
Ye Li remained calm, having changed the types of fruit in his hand three times. Even Su Xingcheng was getting impatient, wondering if Jiang Chengyu would stand him up.
A mile away, in an elegantly furnished study within the Jiang family mansion.
Jiang Chengyu listened to his subordinate's report: "An incense stick has burned out, and that kid hasn't complained?"
"Reporting to the patriarch, according to the maids in the hall, Ye Li is very quiet, eating fruit the whole time, and even asked Dean Su about your physical characteristics," the steward replied respectfully.
"Hmph!" Jiang Chengyu's face revealed a smug smile: "It seems he still cares about my status. He really is here to negotiate. He knows what's good for him."
"It's a pity that Xiyue has already been promised to the Zhou family and can't go back on her word. This has left the boy disappointed."
Thinking this, Jiang Chengyu straightened his clothes and looked to his left and right.
He put down his teacup and glanced at the two figures standing on his left and right.
On the left was an old man dressed in a dark blue robe. His face was withered, but his eyes were as sharp as a hawk's. His aura was as solid as a mountain, and he exuded a chilling sharpness.
This is one of the Jiang family's strengths: Elder Jiang Zhenyue, who has already reached the second step of the Transformation Realm!
Its attribute, 【Blue - Immovable as a Mountain】, grants increased defense the slower the movement speed, reaching 10 when stationary.
Double the defense.
On the right is an elderly man dressed in brocade robes, with a prosperous face and a warm smile, but his eyes are as unfathomable as a deep pool.
This is Yan Qinshang, a respected elder whom Baibaoge has hired at great expense.
Although his cultivation level is at the first stage of Qi Gathering, the attribute he carries, [Blue Instantaneous Movement], allows him to maintain his speed at twice the normal level.
"Elder, Elder Yan," Jiang Chengyu stood up, his face showing respect, and said, "I would like to trouble you two to come with me to meet this genius. Elder Jiang, please keep an eye on Su Xingcheng. If a conflict breaks out, please stop it for me."
"As for Ye Li—perhaps I can suppress him with one hand without Elder Yan's intervention."
"Don't worry, Master," Jiang Zhenyue said in a hoarse voice.
Jiang Chengyu straightened his magnificent brocade robe, smoothed out non-existent wrinkles on the cuffs, and strode confidently toward the reception room.
During this short distance of less than a thousand steps, Jiang Chengyu thought about many things, including how to make a striking first impression when he met Ye Li.
"Leave my daughter. Here are a thousand Qi Gathering Pills. Never see each other again."
"My daughter is already engaged; please do not have any further contact with her."
"Young Master Ye, I am Jiang Chengyu, the father of Jiang Xiyue —"
Various scenarios for the meeting arose in Jiang Chengyu's mind, and then the three of them walked steadily toward the living room.
Inside the reception hall, Ye Li seemed to sense something and stopped what he was doing. With his amazing eyesight, he could see a figure a hundred paces away.
One of them, in the middle, was in his thirties and incredibly heroic.
He was also wearing a purple ring with the ancient character "宝" (treasure) on his index finger, just as Su Xingcheng had described.
This person is Jiang Chengyu.
Ye Li felt reassured, and then he saw the two men's eyes meet a hundred paces apart.
Then, Jiang Chengyu saw a very gentle smile gradually appear on Ye Li's face.
"They do understand etiquette and manners."
Before Jiang Chengyu could even finish this thought, the sound of a long sword being drawn echoed for miles around.
Then, a deafening shout erupted from the living room, and the terrifying sword intent, even before it was drawn, pierced the skin with a painful sting.
"You old dog of the Jiang family! You stole my beloved! Come and face your death!"
"Eat my Nine Hells Demon-Slaying Sword!!!"
Before the words were even finished, an indescribably terrifying sword aura erupted!
Wherever the sword energy passed, the space seemed to be melted through, and the hard, iron-like bluestone ground silently carved out a bottomless, scorched ravine with lava-like edges, just like a hot knife cutting through butter!
It was as brilliant and blazing as the sun falling to earth, as eerie and mysterious as the opening of the deepest hell!
The will to slay demons and destroy evil was condensed to the extreme. With the determination to destroy everything, it crossed a hundred steps at a speed beyond thought and struck Jiang Chengyu directly!
This outbreak was too sudden! Too violent! It exceeded everyone's expectations!
Whether it was the confident Jiang Chengyu, the experienced Jiang Zhenyue and Yan Qinshang, or even Su Xingcheng who was determined to watch the show, their minds went blank for a moment!
The art of assassination is to feign ignorance and then erupt.
Ye Li was a ruthless man who could pretend to be a refined gentleman for a whole month, remaining unmoved even when Wei Wanxi was powerless to resist, until the very end when he finally delivered the blow to her chest.
The sudden outbreak of this event caught everyone off guard, something no one had anticipated.
Jiang Chengyu felt as if his vision was completely engulfed by a dark golden blood light filled with an aura of destruction!
His proud acquired perfection realm, all the carefully prepared arguments, and his prestigious status as the head of the Jiang family were as fragile as paper in the face of this absolute power and speed!
The protective true energy couldn't even stir up a ripple before it was brutally torn apart by the indestructible sword intent!
"Well?!"
The excruciating pain did not come from my head as I had expected.
Jiang Chengyu subconsciously raised his hand to touch his neck and the top of his head—completely unharmed?
He could even feel the warmth of his fingertips touching his skin.
Could it be—a false alarm? Did the other party ultimately not dare—?
The absurd thought had barely formed when... "Ah ...
A piercing scream, so shrill it was almost inhuman, suddenly burst from Jiang Chengyu's throat!
The sound was filled with indescribable pain, horror, and disbelief!
He suddenly lowered his head!
All he saw was a straight line of blood silently tearing open from the crotch of his magnificent brocade robe!
Blood gushed out like a fountain, instantly soaking the hem of his robes!
An indescribable, terrifying pain, like millions of red-hot steel needles, pierced his brain from his lower body and spread to his limbs and bones!
Ye Li's sword strike, which contained all his anger and killing intent, was not aimed at any head at all!
Instead, with unparalleled precision and extreme humiliation, Jiang Chengyu's genitals, along with his crotch area—
It was split vertically in two!
Ye Li wore a cold smile on his face!
Since his father-in-law wanted to break him up with Jiang Xiyue.
You do the first day of the month, I'll do the fifteenth!
Then I'll make you impotent and break up your in-laws' relationship.
