Volume 3: The King of Waste Chapter 342: Fall
Soon, the news spread throughout the inner city.
The Jiang family did not deliberately conceal the news. At this moment, the Jiang family needed such good news very much. It would be very effective whether it was to bring confidence to family members or to deter outsiders.
After receiving the news, all parties who had been ready to take action were shocked and silent for a moment.
The Han family, which was at odds with the Jiang family, cursed and was extremely angry.
What kind of shit luck is this?
Even if kings are hatched, there won’t be two at once!
Could it be that the Jiang family is really not destined to die?
At the Jiang family, in the inner courtyard of the manor.
All the senior members of the family were present, and the only old king of the Jiang family also came out. His originally tired face was now radiant and his eyes were bright, staring straight at the path outside.
There, two figures walked side by side from the ruins.
It penetrated walls and buildings, and the other people around did not react, obviously not seeing it.
But the old king saw it, his eyes flashed with excitement, and he laughed and said, "Good, good!"
When everyone around was surprised, a man and a woman who came from the ruins world also came into reality.
In the eyes of everyone, he appeared instantly out of thin air.
"It's Yueli!"
"Chen Feng!"
When they saw the two's appearance clearly, all the Jiang family executives became a little excited.
They were too familiar with the two's strange appearances. Apart from some extremely powerful shadow-related abilities, the only possibility was the arrival of the Deep Ruins!
"Li'er!"
A couple rushed out of the crowd, stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Yueli's arm, looking excited.
But Jiang Yueli's expression was rather indifferent. She just looked at him quietly, and then her eyes fell on the ancestor of the Jiang family.
She narrowed her eyes slightly. Now that she had become a king, she could feel the true energy of this old king, which was much stronger than hers.
Although the other person looked old and aged, he had the feeling of a volcano that was brimming with anger.
It seems that extremely violent power will burst out at any time.
No wonder the Jiang family has been able to survive for so many years with only the ancestor in charge.
There is indeed a gap between kings.
"Congratulations, you have been reborn. With the three of us in charge, the Jiang family will regain its former glory!"
The old king chuckled and said, despite his old age, at this moment his once restrained heroism and murderous aura were revealed, and he seemed to have been rejuvenated and showed high morale.
Jiang Yueli nodded slightly and said, "At least I will never let the Jiang family be bullied again."
"It's time to settle accounts with those guys from the Han family."
The young man next to him had a cold look with murderous intent in his eyes. He was also a member of the core sequence and a genius in the clan.
"Haha, no rush."
The old king smiled and said, "You have just become kings, and there are many things you are not familiar with. After I give you the information about other kings that our clan has collected, you can learn from each other and adapt to the power of the king before you settle accounts with them."
"Yes, yes, you have just undergone nirvana transformation, and you still need to adapt. It is better to be cautious." Jiang Mingze said with a smile.
Jiang Yueli glanced at him and said nothing.
"Hmph!" Jiang Chenfeng next to him had a cold expression. Although the previous plan to hatch the king was voluntary on their part, the despair, pain and anger they experienced in the process were real.
"As for the hatching plan, don't blame Mingze. This is the old rule of the clan. If it weren't for the life and death situation, we wouldn't sacrifice you. Our real enemy is the Han family and other families who want to take advantage of our misfortune, not Mingze."
Beside him, the old king chuckled and said.
Jiang Mingze was stared at by his former junior Jiang Chenfeng, as if he was being stared at by a hunter. The hairs on his body stood on end and he felt a sense of fear.
The smile on his face froze for a moment, and then he smiled awkwardly: "That's right, if the family hadn't been in dire straits, we wouldn't have sacrificed you. It's a pity that we old guys have experienced too much, and our hearts have become numb. No matter how much stimulation we get, it's hard to wake up. Otherwise, we should be the ones to be sacrificed."
"snort!"
Jiang Chenfeng snorted coldly. The words sounded nice. If it had happened before, he would have believed it.
But in the process of King Nirvana, his entire soul and will were reshaped, and he saw everything more clearly.
"You guys come with me."
The old king said to the two of them, and then he escaped into the fourth level of the Xu world.
Upon seeing this, the two immediately followed him to the fourth world.
This place isolates all the tribesmen in reality.
"What do you think of your family now?" The old king put away the smile on his face and looked at the two of them quietly. This question was strange, but kings are all without emotions. Even if they have emotions, they are only a small part or are relatively simple.
Such as anger, murderous intent, simple nostalgia, regret, etc.
"I was just about to ask the ancestor."
Jiang Chenfeng frowned and said, "The family is so weak and burdensome, why does the ancestor want to guard the family so tightly? With your strength, you are enough to find higher things and have more pursuits."
Now, he has seen through the family's glory, experienced life and death and destruction, and he only cares about his own feelings.
The old king smiled faintly and said, "What is something higher? The perfect Xu Bing, or the legendary spiritual secret? Or an existence that transcends the king? These are all empty things. Even for us kings, we may not be able to find a shadow of them even if we spend our entire lives."
"When I first became king, I also left my family for a while and searched everywhere, but the more information I found, the more I realized that this was too difficult."
"So in the end I returned to my family and used the power of my family to search. Isn't that much faster than searching on my own?"
Jiang Chenfeng raised his eyebrows and said, "Is it really that difficult? None of the major families have found it?"
"Disaster."
The old king shook his head and said, "They want to annex our family, just to get the Ghost Moon God Mask in my hand. This is our Jiang family's legendary Xu Bing, the weight has reached 23, and it is only 9 times away from the limit of 32."
"9 times..."
Jiang Chenfeng's eyes flickered slightly, and he said, "If we can find the Xu Bing in reserve from other families, we can always gather 9 Xu Bing with similar characteristics, which is not far from perfection."
The old king nodded and said, "But the Xu soldiers stored in the warehouses of other families will not be given to us for free. You should know that each family has extremely strict control over its own Xu soldiers, even the lowest-level Xu soldiers, in order to avoid leaking out and allowing others to merge with them."
Jiang Yueli, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up: "If we gather the Xu Bing stored by the other six major families, it should be easy to find 9 of them. Why don't we cooperate with them, or exchange Xu Bing with each other? Wouldn't that be mutually beneficial?"
The old king glanced at her, smiled and shook his head: "This idea has been proposed before, but it has never been implemented, at least not as far as I know. The reason is very simple. The perfect Xu Bing is a miracle, an ancient myth. Legend has it that if you get such a Xu Bing, you will have unrivaled power in the world and can suppress all Xu beasts!"
"Think about it, if it can suppress the Ruins Beast, it can naturally suppress everyone. How precious is this invincible treasure? Once someone gets it first, will he let others create it again?"
Jiang Yueli frowned and understood what he said.
From a rational point of view, cooperation is naturally a win-win situation.
But from the perspective of human nature, we would rather be wary of each other than let the other side succeed.
The opportunity is clearly right in front of them, but everyone still chooses to suppress each other. No wonder each family keeps such strict watch on the Xu soldiers. Even the loss of the lowest-level Xu soldiers is a capital crime.
“It seems that we have to find a way to get rid of other families. With the reserve of soldiers of other families, not to mention how much we can increase it, two or three shares of weight will be enough.” Jiang Chenfeng said, with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
The old king nodded and said, "Yes, the other families think so too. It just depends on whether we have the strength to do so."
"How many kings are there in the Han family?" Jiang Chenfeng asked.
"Two."
The old king smiled and said, “You have just achieved Nirvana, and your control over your own power is not precise enough. Once you adapt, it will be time for us to retaliate against the Han family.”
Jiang Chenfeng nodded slightly, but suddenly said: "Ancestor, can you lend us the Ghost Moon God Face Soldier to try? Maybe we are more compatible with the Soldier, and this way we can release stronger power."
Jiang Yueli's eyes moved slightly, but she didn't say anything and also looked at the old king.
The old king looked at the two of them, his smile did not change, as if he had expected this, and said: "I will personally consider whether it is suitable. Let me know your abilities first."
Jiang Chenfeng's eyes flickered, and he asked, "Then how can I find out?"
"How about having a sparring match with us?" The old king said with a half-smile.
Jiang Chenfeng said: "Then I won't be polite."
Although he called himself a junior, there was no longer the trepidation and respect on his face that he had before Nirvana. When facing the ancestor of the Jiang family, he treated him as a peer. It was not that he was intentionally arrogant, but the loss of emotion after Nirvana made it difficult for him to feel awe towards others.
Unless the old king has the power to make him afraid.
Half an hour later.
They returned to reality from the ruins. Jiang Chenfeng and Jiang Yueli both looked rather gloomy, but the old king was still smiling and seemed to be in better spirits than before.
Seeing the three kings appear, Jiang Mingze quickly came to Jiang Yueli. Facing this niece-like junior, his expression was a little awkward, but as the head of the family, this slight awkwardness soon disappeared, and he became extremely natural and skilled, and said with a little respect: "Yueli, there was a letter from the king of Dicheng earlier, saying that he is your good friend and invites you to get together."
After saying that, he took out the letter and handed it to Jiang Yueli.
"The King of Dicheng?"
Jiang Yueli was surprised.
The old king had heard about this matter from Jiang Mingze a long time ago. After all, it was news related to the king's level and would definitely be reported to him.
He smiled and said, "When the Jiang family was in danger, I heard that a king came to our aid. Maybe it was your friend, or maybe it was another king. You can go and find out."
Jiang Yueli didn't say anything, but opened the letter and soon showed a surprised expression.
Who is this person... ?
She was almost forgetful.
But soon, a handsome face slowly emerged in my mind.
She suddenly realized that it was that little guy.
In an instant, all kinds of memories about Xu Shen came flooding back to her, and the surprise in her eyes became even stronger. When she was in the research institute, Xu Shen had just entered the Xu Secret Bureau.
But I was already in two states at that time.
Now, in just three or four years, Xu Shen has become a king? !
She felt a little surprised.
The letter arrived earlier, which means Xu Shen became king faster than her.
What kind of growth rate is this?!
"Is he someone you know?"
Jiang Chenfeng asked beside him.
Jiang Yueli came back to her senses and nodded: "I gave my Ghost Moon Mask to him earlier."
"I see." Jiang Chenfeng had heard about this. The family wanted to punish Jiang Yueli for this. Although it was a Ghost Moon Mask with its weight disintegrated, it was still a model and the glory of the Jiang family.
"So your relationship is very deep?" Jiang Mingze's eyes lit up. No wonder the other party was willing to help Jiang family when they were in danger and wanted to rescue Jiang Yueli.
"fine."
Jiang Yueli responded calmly.
I just gave it to that little guy casually at the time, mainly because I liked him.
In addition, I was quite annoyed by the mask at that time and wanted to get rid of it, and the other party just appeared by chance, so I gave it to him.
Friendship? We've only met a few times.
But this letter... the other party actually remembered this favor, which made her feel a little funny.
As for being moved? Before she became a king, perhaps she would be moved by this, but now her emotions have changed. She doesn't care about anything unless it is the perfect path to the strongest.
"Although you two have become kings, and our Jiang family has returned to its heyday, having another king ally at this time is always an extra strength. You'd better go meet your friend. After all, he can send you a letter in times of crisis, which means he cares about you very much."
Jiang Mingze persuaded.
Jiang Yueli nodded calmly: "I'll go when I have time."
Jiang Mingze didn't dare to say anything more upon seeing this. At this point, he would not continue to use his status as an elder and the head of the family to communicate with the two younger kings in front of him.
Once he becomes a king, the other party's status surpasses his.
The Jiang family has been able to stand until today thanks to the king.
If the old king hadn't been in charge, the Jiang family would have long since become a second-rate force.
A force without a king will never gain prominence in the inner city.
City of Light.
Xu Shen practiced both the Layered Waves and Sea Moon Rising Secret Techniques to the third stage and mastered the ultimate forms of the two secret techniques, which added a lot of combat power to him.
He received a page from No. 2 in the spiritual space, and it felt like someone was whispering in his mind.
Soon, we learned from No. 2 that the Jiang family's desperate plan to hatch a king was successful, and two kings were born.
Xu Shen also learned the names of the two kings.
Among them is Jiang Yueli.
Xu Shen was extremely surprised, and then he thought of the Jiang family's previous response and evasion, and he immediately understood.
It turns out that Sister Li was previously used as a pawn by the Jiang family.
Now that the other party has been able to return from Nirvana, Xu Shen couldn't help but feel happy for him.
"I heard that you were looking into the Jiang family's affairs?"
Number 1 also came online. Seeing Xu Shen talking to Number 2, he said, "The Jiang family is now in high spirits, with three kings in charge, and has returned to its former glory. No matter what level these two kings belong to among the kings, they are still three kings. I advise you not to interfere in the affairs of the Jiang family anymore."
"What do you mean?" Xu Shen was puzzled.
"The Jiang family is bound to fail this time." No. 1 said calmly: "After the Han family learned the news, they paid a huge price. Once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. They will not sit idly by and watch the Jiang family rise."
"Does the Han family intend to fight hard?"
Xu Shen frowned. He had previously learned from No. 2 about some of the kings of the seven major families, most of which had 2 to 3 kings.
And the Han family has three kings.
Three on three, a hard fight, seems feasible...
"A head-on battle is a bad idea. The king of the Han family doesn't intend to fight to the death himself." No. 1 said, "In short, the waters of the Jiang family are very muddy. All the major families have been involved. It's not that easy to deal with. It's just that the Jiang family has two kings, which will make them pay a higher price."
Xu Shen glanced at No. 1. How could No. 1 know such secret information? Could he be a member of the Han family?
He did not ask. After all, trying to find out the other party's identity would inevitably cause disgust, so he decided not to communicate with them in the future.
A few days later.
Xu Shen received a call from No. 2 again, and just as he went up, he learned a piece of news.
The king of the Jiang family has fallen.
