Chapter 144: The Unfilial Jiang Family Heir

  Heifengzhai, main hall.

  Just as everyone was discussing it, Xia Lin was sitting calmly in the chief's position, listening to the report below.

  "Report to the leader, all of Jiang's disciples heading to the outer city have been beheaded! It can be guaranteed that no one will be able to send out any news." A subordinate knelt on the ground and reported.

  "Alright."

  Xia Lin smiled coldly and nodded in satisfaction as he looked at this disciple carrying a long bow.

  After a period of training, Xia Ming had already fully formed this longbow team. Although it couldn't be said that they could take someone's head from a thousand miles away, killing people without being seen was still absolutely possible. If they encountered an opponent who was really impossible to deal with, they would notify Yue Lian to take action.

  In short, all news about the Jiang family was completely sealed off!

  Summer is approaching, the Jiang family's entire house has been isolated, completely plunged into a dead silence. The poor Jiang family is still waiting for the arrival of the Jiang family's main branch, but they don't know that all their retreats have already been cut off by Xia Lin.

  "How long can it be locked?"

  "Three months!" The disciple said without hesitation, "According to the intelligence, Linjiang City's Jiang family will necessarily contact Jingzhou's Jiang family at least once in half a year, and now, three months have already passed."

  "That is to say, they will be locked up for at most three months?" Xia Lin said.

  "Yes, only three months. Three months later, if the Jiang family of Jingzhou still doesn't return, the rivers and lakes will definitely know something, and it's bound to be loudly proclaimed, so that everyone knows, and the merchants who come and go will inevitably spread the news, and there's no way to stop it, unless all the people are killed." The disciple said with a bitter smile.

  Xia nodded slightly, indicating understanding.

  Although Linjiang City is not large, countless families and merchant teams of all sizes may pass through here. Now it's just intercepting the Jiang family disciples, naturally nothing will happen, but once Linjiang City is fully blocked, with Heifeng Gang's current strength, it would be impossible to resist the might of so many families. It's no different from seeking death.

  "Three months... " Xia Lin muttered to herself, "I wonder what level I'll be able to reach."

  After returning from the main hall, Xia Lin didn't go anywhere else either.

  After entrusting the general affairs of Heifeng Village to Xia Ling, he chatted with Lü'er for a while before re-entering his cultivation.

  Time is pressing on him, he must break through in a short time!

  His current strength is normally only at the level of Qingyun's first transformation, but under the amplification of Manzun's descent, it can barely match Qingyun's second transformation!

  The road to heaven is as difficult as ascending to heaven itself!

  Every advancement of Qingyun is more difficult than the previous one, and Xia Lin only understood this now. Why so many warriors stay in the Return to Origin realm for their entire lives and can't enter the Divine Path. Perhaps they can enter the second or third transformation of Qingyun, but after that, there are still several transformations left.

  Qingyun's seven transformations are complete, and only then does he have a slight chance. He steps into the realm of divine power. And before this, others didn't even have this opportunity.

  Jingzhou Jiang family... thinking about the bitterness when I first knew about the Jiang family, it's indeed a family with hundreds of years of foundation, with countless strong members, and unexpectedly there's even a Divine Realm expert! Isn't this equivalent to a small sect?

  But Xia Lin also knew that it was not yet certain whether this Shentong realm was still alive or not.

  Even if it's the case, or even if it's a matter of divine providence, I'm afraid there won't be any time to bother with a trivial matter like the Jiang family's side branch. After all, even when the Jiang family in Jingzhou was in crisis several times, this senior didn't make a move.

  "The Jiang family of Linjiang City is just a collateral branch, so if you want to contend with them, you must know that taking down Heifeng Stronghold will come at a great cost!"

  "And this price, compared to the collateral branch of the Jiang family in Linjiang City, must be even heavier! Only then will they be intimidated."

  "So-called family honor, perhaps for the Jiang family of Jingzhou, it exists. But for a distant relative like you who only contacts once every half year? As long as the price is heavy enough, it's worth considering whether it's worth it or not."

  That's Xia Lin's idea.

  There is no family that is completely united, and even a small force like Hei Feng Zhai is the same. Similarly, the Jiang family will inevitably not be able to escape this cage. At first, they may not mind, but when eliminating Hei Feng Zhai will cause some loss to the strength of the Jiang family in Jingzhou, contradictions will arise.

  However, Xia Lin calculated that Heifeng Village currently has five people with Qingyun Yibian strength.

  This is absolutely not enough!

  Xia Lin's goal is to make the Jiang family suffer a huge loss!

  Come one, kill one!

  Come two, kill one pair!

  Make Jiang's family hurt to the skin, but not hurt the tendons and bones, this is the most perfect result.

  As of now - let alone skin, I'm afraid even Jiang's hair wouldn't be harmed...

  The difference between the Tempering Body Realm and the Blood Qi Realm is enormous. The Tempering Body Realm is a refinement of one's skeletal structure, enhancing one's physical strength, while the Blood Qi Realm involves fusing the already perfected flesh with the refined body. This fusion of bones, blood, and everything else results in the formation of an extremely powerful physique for cultivators.

  When the physical body is refined to its peak and cannot be broken through, it is the time to enter the realm of spiritual power.

  This will inevitably be a long process.

  With his current strength, after breaking through, combined with the arrival of Mo Zun, he should be able to temporarily possess power comparable to Qingyun's Three Transformations, and will definitely make the Jiang family pay a heavy price!

  A month's time has passed in the blink of an eye.

  These days, no one has been idle. Everyone's goal is simple: Cultivate! Cultivate! Frantically cultivate!

  The entire Black Wind Stockade, everything they had plundered, was all consumed by just a few of them.

  After using it up, they spent a lot of money to continue purchasing. Heifeng Village and the previous four major villages have accumulated resources for hundreds of years, but were suddenly depleted!

  Five Great Mountains, accumulated over hundreds of years.

  What a terrible resource!

  The Lingcao he had exchanged for was only a few dozen pieces.

  Lu'er's talent was beyond doubt, and now that she had acquired the tattoos and incantations, her strength surged forward once again. It was clear that she had already undergone a transformation, and yet her progress showed no signs of slowing down, causing the people of Heifeng Village to exclaim in shock that she was a monster.

  Yuè Lián, on the other hand, relied on her spiritual grass to charge into the peak of Níng Hǎi, only a hair's breadth away from returning to the origin. However, no one dared to question her strength. What about the peak of Níng Hǎi? She could instantly kill those who had just entered the realm of return to the origin, showing no mercy at all. As long as she was given the opportunity to strike, it was almost always a fatal blow for cultivators who had just undergone a transformation in their cultivation.

  The strength of Xia Man and Da Zhang Lao is stable, at the level of Qing Yun's first transformation. While they may be slightly insufficient against Qing Yun's second transformation, they have an absolute advantage against Qing Yun's first transformation.

  Sun Zhong then completely went on the road of mountain stronghold. Sun Zhong became more and more spirited, managing the entire mountain stronghold in an orderly manner.

  Xia Ming's talent is great, the concentration of ancient barbarian blood in his body is second only to Xia Lin. In theory, after Xia Lin unblocks the bloodline obstruction, he should soar into the sky and make rapid progress from then on.

  However, it was strange that Xia Ming was still in the Cyclone Realm, a distance away from the Condensed Sea Realm. The gap between him and the others had widened again, but he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. Every day, he just drew his bow and shot arrows!

  He never stopped practicing archery whenever he had free time, and that's why his strength progressed slowly. Now he is still in the early stages of the Spiral Boundary.

  Xia Lin had discussed archery with Xia Ming several times before.

  It was clear that no matter how Xia Lin looked at it, he felt that Xia Ming's archery skills had already reached the extreme. One hundred shots, one hundred hits, regardless of distance or speed, as long as Xia Ming locked onto a target, no one could escape. At this point, there was no room for improvement in his training.

  At this time, what needs to be improved is one's own realm and strength!

  As long as the strength is up, the bow and arrow can burst out their strongest power!

  Moreover, although it was already fast for ordinary people, and even some cultivators of the Condensing Sea Realm could not dodge Xia Ming's arrows, for Xia Lin and Yue Lian, who were already among the strong, it was almost useless, and they easily dodged.

  This is also the reason why Xia Lin came to talk to him.

  What a waste of talent!

  However, Xia Ming simply said that he could feel his progress and the growth of his strength.

  Xia Lin remained skeptical about this point.

  However, when he saw a strike, Xia Ming understood after shooting and killing a warrior in the Condensed Sea Realm with one arrow.

  This is Xia Ming's martial arts!

  Although the boundary is low, he has his own way. In fact, for Xia Lin, isn't he himself like that too? He walks a road that others have not taken before. Since he himself is like this, why must he demand it from Xia Ming.

  From then on, Xia Lin didn't restrain him anymore. As long as he could feel the progress, the realm was just a fleeting cloud.

  Heifeng Village's only soy sauce party should be Dongfang Xuan classmate.

  He had no interest in improving his strength, and even the fact that he had cultivated a body of five elements was only for the purpose of strengthening his physique so that it would not drag him down.

  But Dongfang Xuan also has his own strengths. In just one short month, he analyzed the Jiang family's power to the point of being thoroughly and extremely clear.

  The Jiang family has several members, and several people are related to the Jiang family in Jingzhou. Several people have relatives there, those people have a background, which ones can be moved, which ones can't be touched, he actually analyzed them all out.

  When this document was handed over to Xia Lin, Xia Lin also couldn't help but feel a little frightened.

  Because this was marked by Dongfang Xuan with a red circle as someone who absolutely cannot be moved, it turned out to be several disciples from the Jiang family of Jingzhou who had come over for training!

  Thinking back to the past, those rich second-generation and red second-generation people always went to the countryside for training, cultivation, and gilding. I don't know if these few disciples are in the same situation. Let's not discuss what these Jiang family disciples came here for. If they accidentally get killed, it won't just be a flesh wound, but a pain that cuts to the bone!

  Because there is a disciple, who happens to be the direct descendant of the Jiang family! Although not the eldest son, but he is the most beloved grandson of the current head of the Jiang family. If this little guy dies here, Heifeng Gang will be finished.

  For this result, Xia Lin could only say one word: ridiculous!
