Chapter 1162: Chapter 1162: Who Dies in the End? Chapter 1162: Chapter 1162: Who Dies in the End? At this mont, the disciples of the Ei Sect, including the Sect Master, all turned their heads in unison, looking towards Elder Jiang. Doubt, along with a trace of anger, began to appear in their eyes.
One must know that the Ei Sect, since ancient tis, has prided itself as a noble and upstanding major faction, with many elaborate rules and regulations. Their sect rules are extrely strict!
If what Huang Xiaolong said was true, and Elder Jiang indeed had an affair with Hall Master Ji’s wife in secret, and Ji Chuchen was the illegitimate child born from their affair, then he would have violated the sect rules and would be sentenced to a severe punishnt. Moreover, such behavior was despicable and loathso, tantamount to defiling a fellow sect mber’s wife— a heinous and unforgivable act, scorned by everyone!
“Hahaha~~ Elder Jiang, we have always called each other brothers, and I’ve respected you. But I never expected that despite all the caution, the hardest to guard against is an inside traitor~~~ How could you do this to your brother!” Hall Master Ji’s eyes were about to split with rage, shooting flas of vengeance! His entire body trembled uncontrollably.
He felt so much bitterness! He had been cuckolded by a highly trusted elder brother, kept in the dark until now, and had even personally raised the illegitimate child for over two decades, placing great hopes in him.
“You! My dear brother! Don’t listen to this petty thief’s biased words! Don’t let him spout lies about !” Elder Jiang’s face too beca panicked and twisted, with fear involuntarily appearing in his eyes as he barked out loud, trying to defend himself.
Huang Xiaolong stood atop his flying sword with an expression of watching the fire from across the river, seemingly unbothered, even though his four wives were in Elder Jiang’s hands.
When Ma Chuxia and the others saw Huang Xiaolong, their hearts settled, and with grinning faces, they too started to enjoy the drama unfolding.
“I am not slandering anyone,” Huang Xiaolong said with his arms crossed and a smile on his face. “Don’t forget, I have the ability to see the truth. During the Hidden Dragon Ranking competition, I could tell with one glance that Ji Chuchen was not the biological child of Hall Master Ji.”
Upon hearing these words, many disciples of the Ei Sect couldn’t help but nod slightly.
Huang Xiaolong’s ability to see the truth was indeed miraculous, witnessed by everyone firsthand, and wasn’t just an empty boast.
The Sect Master of the Ei Sect’s eyes revealed a deep expression, as if pondering so critical aspects of the situation.
“Nonsense about seeing the truth!” Elder Jiang’s face contorted with fury, practically on the brink of losing his composure, having lost all the deanor of an elder, as he burst out with curses. “This little thief is just sowing discord! His thods are wicked! He’s trying to ruin the friendship between and brother Ji! Furthermore, he’s fabricating these filthy accusations to impose on … This is a plot to kill two birds with one stone! Wanting to ruin my reputation! Good, good! Such a cunning devil! This man cannot be spared!”
Pausing for a mont, Elder Jiang glared at Huang Xiaolong with a murderous look, as if he couldn’t wait to tear a piece of flesh from Huang Xiaolong’s body. “You scum, your wives are in my hands! Now, open your mind, let plant a mark within your spirit. Doing so, you will beco a disciple of our Ei Sect! The Ei Sect can then protect you; otherwise, you will inevitably be slaughtered to dust by the Shushan Sword Sect! This is an opportunity you should seize! Kneel down! Open your mind!”
“Wait~~” Hall Master Ji’s face turned an ashen hue. “Elder Jiang, right and wrong have their own justice. Hmm~~ I just rembered sothing, over twenty years ago, the year before Chuchen was born, I was on a sect mission, so I entrusted you with the care of my wife ‘Ruorong’~~ At that ti, I trusted you completely, Elder Jiang~~ Hehe, shortly after I got back, ‘Ruorong’ was pregnant… Now that I think about it, it’s all very strange indeed! No matter, Elder Jiang, after we return to the Ei Sect, I can call ‘Ruorong’ to confront you in person~~~ How about that?”
Hall Master Ji was reminded of so long-forgotten details by Huang Xiaolong’s words.
The more he thought about it, the more suspicious it seed, and he had already believed what Huang Xiaolong said by eighty percent!
“Brother Ji, are you doubting ?” Elder Jiang retorted with a shrill voice.
“Elder Jiang!” Another elder from the Elder Group of the Ei Sect, a graceful middle-aged woman, also spoke out loudly. “Whether or not you did such a beastly act, it will be ti to find Ruorong and question her thoroughly. We will surely uncover clues. Your agitation, isn’t that because you’re feeling guilty?”
Another elder scrutinized Elder Jiang in detail. “I had felt before that Chuchen and Hall Master Ji don’t really resemble each other. We even joked in private, comnting that Chuchen might not actually be the son of Hall Master Ji… Now looking at it, Chuchen’s eyebrows, even his nose, they all bear a striking resemblance to Elder Jiang~~!”
At those words, every disciple and high-ranking mber of the Ei Sect began to stare intently at Elder Jiang’s face, as if there were flowers growing on it.
He watched and nodded at the sa ti.
Elder Jiang’s forehead and face were beading with a dense layer of cold sweat, his expression growing uglier than a ghost’s, “Sect Master, you can’t possibly… You don’t believe these slanderous accusations, do you? You—you—you must stand up and say sothing fair for !”
“Elder Jiang,” the Ei Sect Master spoke solemnly. “I too find sothing odd. The Dragon Hidden List competition hasn’t ended, yet you wanted to et with Chuxia and the other three disciples, intending to subdue that young man through them. At first, I also thought that you were doing this for the sake of the Ei Sect, but now I am starting to think…”
The Ei Sect Master fell silent for several seconds before speaking bluntly. “Could it be that you are truly Chuchen’s biological father, and that after Chuchen was killed by that young man, you wanted to take revenge for Chuchen, hence you couldn’t wait to plot against that young man…”
“No! That’s not true!” Elder Jiang scread in horror.
He had originally thought that after getting a hold on Ma Chuxia and the other three, he would have control of the situation and that Huang Xiaolong, this tender chick, would indeed be at his rcy.
But he never expected that Huang Xiaolong, with his ever-changing tactics, would use just one sentence to collapse the advantage he had built and push him to the edge of the cliff!
Below was a point of no return!
Even though Elder Jiang was a prominent figure in the Elder Group of the Ei Sect, holding great power, committing such an act would not only destroy his lifelong reputation but would also lead to a miserable death!
“Elder Jiang, there’s no need for further words. Let us hurry back to the Ei Sect and call Ruo Rong out for a confrontation. We must give Hall Master Ji an explanation for this matter. If it turns out to be nothing, then all is well, but if it is confird that Chuchen is the child born out of wedlock between you and Ruo Rong, then… you, Elder Jiang, will face severe punishnt,” said the Ei Sect Master, unequivocally.
“Hehehehe—Good, very good, excellent, to actually interrogate over an outsider’s nonsensical talk—” Elder Jiang suddenly let out a few sinister laughs, and the next second—
Boom—!
The luxurious carriage that Elder Jiang was on shot out like an arrow released from its bow, leaving a trail of air waves behind in the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it was hundreds of ters away!
“You little thief!!!” Elder Jiang pointed at Huang Xiaolong and cursed furiously. “Today, you dare to falsely accuse and entrap , bereaving of benevolence and righteousness! Listen well! Now, I give you two options! The first, kneel down, open your heart, and let plant a mark within you, swearing loyalty to the Ei Sect henceforth! The second, I will kill all four of your wives! Kill them right in front of you!”
As he spoke, Elder Jiang’s mana surged like the tide, his intent to kill obvious, his pressure completely locking onto Ma Chuxia and the other three. With just a slight shift in his thoughts, he could cause their imdiate demise!
It should be known that Elder Jiang was no diocrity; he was a superpower of the late-stage Heavenly Law Manifestation realm. Even if his combat strength was slightly behind that of other powerhouses of the sa realm such as the Sect Master of the Shushan Sect, Ling Feng, and other leaders of major sects including the Ei Sect, it wasn’t by much.
Now that his pressure fully enveloped Ma Chuxia and the others, he could unleash his killing power in a fraction of a mont. Any attempt at rescue by others would be absolutely too late!
“Elder Jiang! What are you doing? Each issue should be addressed separately; let’s clarify your matter first!” The Ei Sect Master, a gentle-faced woman, was also becoming sowhat annoyed.
Huang Xiaolong, on the other hand, appeared completely nonchalant, even yawning while sitting directly on his flying sword. “Are you threatening ?”
Elder Jiang continued to sneer, “This isn’t a threat; it’s a punishnt for you! You should have been aware of this when you began to defa ! Do you really think you’re clever? Your wives are in my hands, and you still dare to jump around?”
“Sigh—young man, our Ei Sect didn’t an to make things difficult for you. It’s just that… your ruthless killing of Ji Chuchen was indeed a slap in the face to our Ei Sect,” the Ei Sect Master sighed heavily, speaking earnestly to Huang Xiaolong. “I didn’t expect things to beco so complicated, a complete ss. Our Ei Sect’s reputation is utterly ruined. Young man, why not co back with us to the Ei Sect, and let’s settle things one by one.”
“No way!” Elder Jiang screeched. “You little thief, I give you three breaths’ ti to make your decision! Either kneel down and open up your heart! Or, your four wives, they all die together! You should know that at this mont, even a giant of the Immortal realm can’t save them from my hands! Whether they live or die is up to your choice!”
“Elder Jiang! Such actions are surely too rash!” the Sect Master of Ei said, dissatisfied once again. “No matter what, Chuxia and Pianpian among others are disciples of our Ei Sect. Treating their lives as a joke, isn’t that going to chill the hearts of the other disciples?”
At this mont, many female disciples of the Ei Sect indeed had pale faces, gnashing their teeth as they glared at Elder Jiang.
“Hahahaha~~~” Just then, Huang Xiaolong burst into loud laughter. “How about this, why don’t you kill my four wives first? Co on, no more hesitation, just do it. Kill them right now. But let remind you, if you kill them, you’re digging your own grave.”
Huang Xiaolong’s eyes twinkled, his gaze on his four wives half-joking, half-serious.
Ma Chuxia and the others t Huang Xiaolong’s gaze and smiled tenderly, seeming completely unfazed by the dangerous situation before them!
Utterly indifferent!
Quite rightly so…
When his four wives joined the Ei Sect, Huang Xiaolong had long since left a special killing move within each of their souls!
If the lives of his wives were threatened, in the mont before their deaths, the protective spell Huang Xiaolong left for them would instantly erupt, overpowering everything!
That’s why Huang Xiaolong and his wives didn’t take Elder Jiang’s threats seriously at all!
If you want to kill, then kill. In the end, it’s not certain who will die!
“What?!” Elder Jiang was flabbergasted, having not expected Huang Xiaolong to be so indifferent to the lives of his wives. “You… you actually… you actually don’t care about your wives? You! You fiend! Truly a wolf’s heart and a dog’s lungs!”
“You!” the Sect Master of Ei was also displeased. “Young man, you are too callous! Chuxia, Pianpian, Hanyan, and Feng Hanyan are all gentle won. To have such virtuous wives is a blessing from your previous life, and now you disregard their lives without a second thought; you! You truly chill one’s heart!”
“Sect Master, you are mistaken,” Ma Chuxia said with a sweet smile. “Being Little Long’s wives is the blessing we achieved from our previous lives. Perhaps it is due to the boundless rits we accumulated in our past lives that in this life, we can share a bed with Little Long.”
“You all must be poisoned by so love spell! At such a critical mont, when this young man does not care about your lives, you still speak for him! You! Ah! What a pity!” The Sect Master of Ei fud with frustration.
Many disciples of the Ei Sect also began to curse Huang Xiaolong for his cold-heartedness.
“You’re wrong. It’s not that I’m callous, but… my wives naturally won’t die,” Huang Xiaolong said with a grin. “Whoever dares to touch my wives will be the one to die.”
Huang Xiaolong’s words were very serious, with a grave tone that suggested he was not joking.
“Nonsense!” Elder Jiang cursed furiously.
With a sweep of his divine sense, he could be certain of one thing—there were no defensive treasures on Ma Chuxia and the other three, and their cultivation and realms were undeniably too low.
In the eyes of a late-stage Heavenly Law Realm powerhouse, the four won were nothing but ants that could be crushed thousands of tis over with a re thought—this was an undeniable fact!
“You thief! It seems you really like to blather on… I am a late-stage Heavenly Law Realm powerhouse, not to ntion your four wives; even if it were you… killing you would be like picking up grass!” Elder Jiang’s eyes seeped with a crazed intent to kill, and it looked like his mind was made up. His shoulders twitched involuntarily, as if he was about to take action any mont. “I’ll give you one last chance… kneel down!”
“Young man! First ensure the safety of Chuxia and the others!” the Sect Master of Ei also roared at Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong yawned again. “There’s no need to give any more chances. If you want to make a move, just do it. You claim to be a late-stage Heavenly Law Realm powerhouse, but you’re so long-winded. It seems you’re destined not to achieve greatness.”
“Elder Jiang, if you want to kill us four sisters, don’t bother asking Little Long; just do it,” Ma Chuxia said with a light smile.
From your behavior, Elder Jiang, there’s no doubt that you are Ji Chuchen’s biological father. You truly are vicious—to have worn a green hat for over twenty years, it’s utterly disgusting!” Yan Pianpian frowned.
“It’s simply perverted,” Feng Hanyan said with a cold laugh.
“Elder Jiang, just kill us quickly! If Little Long says you had an affair with Hall Master Ji’s wife, then it’s the truth. Everything Little Long says is absolute truth, beyond dispute! You beast with a human face but the heart of an animal!” Huo Hanyan also gritted her teeth and cursed.
“Roar~~~!!!”
Elder Jiang, red with sha and anger, finally unleashed his full mana like a tidal wave, “You really think I wouldn’t dare to kill? Good, good, very good! You thief, now I’m going to kill your wives right before your eyes! Let you taste the pain of your dearest ones dying before you!”
As he spoke, Elder Jiang cursed internally in his heart—’My son Chuchen! Now, as your father, I will first take so interest on your behalf! I’ll torture and kill this fiend’s wives! Don’t worry, after killing these wretches, I will kill this boy too, to appease your spirit in heaven!’
The next second!
Two beams of mana shot out from Elder Jiang’s eyes, slicing through the air!
These two beams of mana shone bright like pillars, as swift as flying swords, as fierce as dragons, as raging as fire!
They swept across the bodies of Ma Chuxia, Yan Pianpian, Feng Hanyan, and Huo Hanyan, intending to kill all four simultaneously, slicing them into pieces!
In the blink of an eye, as Elder Jiang’s mana rays passed over the bodies of Huang Xiaolong’s four wives, each of their brows split open with a vertical eye!
What followed!
From the vertical eyes on their foreheads, a giant hand slowly extended from each!
As these four giant hands reached out, Elder Jiang’s mana rays ant to cut apart Ma Chuxia and the others were instantly blocked!
Imdiately after, the four giant hands, coming from four different directions, reached for Elder Jiang simultaneously!
“What is this!” The Sect Master of Ei was aghast, mouth agape in shock!
