Chapter 215
Everyone was quite amazed. They didn't know why he had brought a person over as if he was planning to confront the Jiang family.
That person got dragged over and thrown on the ground. When he raised his head, everyone saw his badly battered face and recognized it immediately. It was Jiang Hao's driver.
"Old Fu!"
Jiang Hao rose up from his seat immediately. He pointed towards the driver and spoke with fury, "Jiang Xiu, w-what are you doing?" Only, Jiang Hao acted a bit weak due to the matter which had happened yesterday.
"Don't you already know it?" Jiang Xiu questioned back.
After the accident, the driver had escaped. Jiang Xiu made the Wang family's members grab him on that very night. This guy was too calm. He crashed the car into a person and returned back home as if nothing had happened at all, eating his full and then sleeping. It was clear that this wasn't the first time he had done something like this. Otherwise, he wouldn't have remained so calm.
Jiang Hao said, "I don't know what you're talking about. Brat, release him quickly. Though Old Fu is a driver, you can't act like this to him."
"Jiang Hao, do you think you can still hide it now that the situation has come to this point?" Jiang Xiu replied.
The driver raised his head and looked towards Jiang Hao. He immediately understood the essence of the matter and glared back at him, scaring the heck out of the driver, making him cry out bitterly. "I was forced… really…"
Jiang Hao's expression turned ugly, "Jiang Xiu, what did you do to him?"
"What did I do to him?"
"Hahaha…."
Jiang Xiu stopped laughing all of a sudden, his voice turning colder, a terrifying rage filling his words, "Yesterday afternoon, this person tried to kill my in-laws by crashing the car into them!"
Everyone cried out in alarm.
Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling's expressions changed as well. It wasn't an accident? It was a murder attempt?
"Don't slander without proof!"
"That's right! Why would Second Brother incite Old Fu to kill your in-laws?"
Even Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling revealed a puzzled expression.
"To silence his mouth!"
"12 years ago, you, Jiang Hao… No, accurate to say, it's you, Elder Jiang, couldn't bear to see my father succeed in his official career using his own effort and ability after leaving the family. You felt this was a disgrace to the family, that it was a challenge against your Jiang family's authority. You wanted to let everyone know that those who leave your Jiang family end up badly… Therefore, you sent Jiang Hao to Jiang City with evil intentions and forced my father's best friend to trap my father and bring him down."
Jiang Yi was mind blown. He looked at Elder Jiang with a look of disbelief. Elder Jiang's eyes were wide open right now, filled with wisps of blood.
"Is it true? Tell me, is what Little Xiu saying true?" Jiang Yi almost roared at Elder Jiang.
Elder Jiang replied coldly, "What attitude is that? Is this how you speak to your father?"
Jiang Yi's eyes became bloodshot, "Tell me, is it true?"
"What if it is?"
"I wanted to teach you a lesson. What's wrong with a father teaching his son a lesson?!"
Tears flowed down from Jiang Yi's eyes noiselessly, no they weren't tears, it was blood, they were tears of blood. Lin Yueling was alarmed while the others sighed.
"A father teaching his son a lesson? Is that what you call it? We broke all ties with the Jiang family back then. You just wanted to retaliate against me for that. You're my enemy, an enemy who destroyed my life."
Elder Jiang snorted, "Hmph! So what?"
"Anyone who betrays the Jiang family is doomed to have a bad ending!"
Jiang Yi only felt terror facing this person before him. He shivered all over. The person before his eyes was already cold-blooded to the degree that could make people tremble with fear.
"Haha-Hahaha…"
He laughed out loud, those laughs seemingly filled with sorrow as well as bitterness. He felt it was funny that he still held some hope for such a person. He never expected this person to be the reason he spent a decade in jail, making his wife and his son lose him, resulting in them suffering cold treatment in the outside world.
A fire of vengeance lit up in his heart.
A blaze of hatred lit up in Lin Yueling's eyes as well. She shouted at him in a rage, "You demon!"
Elder Jiang shivered all over, "So what if I am a demon? Though my Jiang family is troubled right now, it's as easy as crushing an ant to handle your entire family. Your son has to marry Nangong Kou'er or else I'll send your entire family down to hell."
Jiang Yi and Lin Yueling looked at him with furious gazed but were also afraid. The Jiang family was a colossal existence. They couldn't even withstand a single move from the other side, just like how it was 12 years ago.
"Don't act stupid like you did back then, only to be forced to do it in the end."
Jiang Xiu shook his head, "You believe I'll let you manipulate my family? Don't even dream of it. I won't divorce Cheng Lingsu and nor will I marry Nangong Kou'er."
"Let's take a step back and say I agree to marry Nangong Kou'er, the condition for it would be to handle your Jiang family."
"It's time for you to wake up to reality, Jiang Yishan, you're finished!"
Elder Jiang glared at Jiang Xiu without even blinking. A terrifying smile rose on his face, "Ignorant child. You believe my Jiang family is as simple as you think it is? That it's so easy to bring it down?"
"It's impossible for my Jiang family to perish!"
Elder Jiang's aura soared up as he swept his gaze across all the family members present on the scene, "My Jiang family has stood at the top of the Imperial Capital for 50 years and faced too many powerful enemies and sustained great losses, but it's still at the top."
At this moment, a person came rushing in. "Elder, the Ji family members have arrived."
"Hahaha!"
Elder Jiang laughed heartily, "Welcome them inside!"
That person rushed out, and Elder Jiang looked at Jiang Xiu's family, "Let me show you the true foundation of my Jiang family. You can then decide whether you will resist or surrender."
"Hmph!"
A group entered the courtyard. The man leading them was an old man around 70 years old with white hair yet having a youthful complexion. A batch of disciples followed behind him, each one of them appearing ordinary yet all of them were experts.
"Ruo Wengong, I'm sorry for disturbing you!"
"Please excuse me for not coming out to meet you!"
Elder Jiang cupped his hands like how the people of Jianghu did when meeting each other. However, his movements looked really out of place and funny.
"Elder Jiang, it's been a long time."
"Please take a seat!"
Ruo Wengong said, "There's no need. The full moon has already risen to the sky. It's already time. My teacher has arrived at the Donglu Mountain and is currently on top of Reddrop Peak."
"It seems like Elder Jiang has yet to settle the family matters properly?"
He looked at the rope-bound person laying on the ground. The man's face was severely bruised.
Elder Jiang laughed coldly, "Just a trivial matter. I gave birth to an unfilial son who refused to follow my Jiang family and wants to end my Jiang family. It's simply too ridiculous."
Ruo Wengong said, "As long as my Ji family exists, no one in this world can end the Jiang family!"
The Jiang family members felt high after hearing these words.
Elder Jiang also nodded repeatedly, revealing a smug expression on his face as he turned towards Jiang Xiu sitting on the seat, "Did you hear Ruo Wengong's words? Stupid child!"
"Act smartly and surrender!"
Right now, an old man was seated on the Reddrop Peak of Donglu Mountain. He was donned in white clothes and leaned back against the mountain rocks, looking at the full moon up in the sky in a leisurely manner. The moonlight seemed to fall on him gather around his body, seemingly forming a layer of light around it, making him appear illusionary.
Martial artists from all corners of China had arrived at the entrance of Donglu Mountain. They planned to observe this paramount battle between Demigods through their own eyes. The discussions on the martial arts forum had also exploded.
The moon had already risen high up in the sky and time kept passing by. They watched that renown Demigod sitting on the Reddrop Peak from a distance.
Feeling as if that peak was too high to reach!
Cheng Lingsu and her three dormmates had arrived here along with Song Ronghao at this moment. Susu should've been at the hospital to take care of Cheng Hanlin, but ever since she found out that her father was harmed by the Jiang family, she wanted to come here to witness the confrontation between Jiang Xiu and the Jiang family.
"Oh my god! Each one of them had an extraordinary bearing."
Song Ronghao was accompanied by an expert from the Song family. The Song family had a lot of wealth, so they obviously needed equal military strength to protect that wealth, so they had invited a lot of advisors. "Naturally, all those who have here arrived today are big shots."
