Chapter 20
"Old... Old Ancestor is dead?"
"Impossible! The Old Ancestor was a dignified Purple Mansion great cultivator—how could he die so easily?"
"Can anyone tell me this is actually fake......"
The Tang family members stood dumb as wooden chickens, so scared they even forgot to flee.
Their own Old Ancestor's great name had resounded through Wudan City for decades.
Even they themselves had taken him as their spiritual faith.
But now, the faith that had supported them had suddenly collapsed.
Thinking of this, many Tang clan members showed panic on their faces, at a loss.
Yet, for them, true despair had only just begun.
Jiang Daoxuan turned to look at the group of eager clansmen before him and said coldly, "Send them on their way."
As his words fell, the Jiang clan members, who had been immersed in shock, came to their senses, then raised their arms in a shout and charged forward in unison!
Facing the high fighting spirit of the Jiang family members.
Having lost all support, the Tang family members immediately thought of retreating and began to flee in panic.
But because they were too nervous, many fell to the ground.
Yet, clutching their fear of death, they had no choice but to scramble up on hands and knees and keep running.
Only their movements were simply too slow.
Soon, the Jiang family members surrounded them completely, airtight!
Kill!
Immediately after, one Jiang clan disciple after another drew their weapons and began slaughtering this group of Tang family people!
Jiang Daoxuan mingled among the crowd.
This level of fighting was, for him, no different from children playing house.
Considering that accumulating combat experience was of no small importance to the clansmen, he couldn't be bothered to act further, choosing instead to observe.
However, whenever a Jiang clan disciple encountered danger, Jiang Daoxuan would directly intervene and affect the outcome.
Under the coverage of his Purple Mansion spiritual sense, everything happening at the entire scene was within his grasp, and no accidents would occur.
And the entire Tang family had become a tool for honing the Jiang clan members' combat ability.
Not long after.
A thick stench of blood permeated the air, lingering and refusing to dissipate.
The ground was covered with severed limbs and broken arms, a scene too horrifying to look at.
Accompanied by the last scream rising, all the Tang family people present had already been completely annihilated.
At this moment, the faces of all Jiang clan disciples felt their blood surging, their faces brimming with excitement.
Because Jiang Daoxuan had intervened, aside from some minor wounds and slight flesh injuries, they had no other injuries at all.
When the surroundings returned to quiet, everyone wore looks of worship, gazing with burning eyes at the back of their own clan leader.
Fortunately blessed by the ancestors, now that the Jiang family could possess such a powerful clan leader, what else did they have to worry about?
Under everyone's gaze, Jiang Daoxuan was not satisfied with this, and faced the crowd.
"If we are to wash away the humiliations our Jiang family has suffered over these hundreds of years, this is still far from enough. Today, we must let everyone in Wudan City understand what price it costs to provoke my Jiang family!"
"Now, search the entire Tang residence, find every survivor, or livestock—I want the Tang family to leave not even a chicken or dog alive, completely cut off at the root!"
If you don't cut the grass and remove the roots, the spring wind will blow and they'll grow again.
Mercy toward the enemy is cruelty toward one's own family!
Hearing the clan leader's order, all Jiang clan disciples immediately bowed in salute. "Yes!"
In their hearts, they had no resistance to this matter.
Recalling how the other side had come to their door prepared to exterminate the entire family with such arrogance, they couldn't help but feel a wave of lingering fear.
If the clan leader hadn't appeared, they would likely have long since become souls under Tang Zhengyang's sword.
Such a great hatred—how could it be easily resolved?
Thus, with anger in their hearts, the many Jiang clan disciples swarmed forward and began scouring every corner of the Tang family.
Immediately after, cries of cursing, pleas for mercy, dog barks, and goose honks rose one after another.
Not long after.
The entire Tang family fell silent.
By this time, the Tang family had been completely erased from Wudan City!
When one Jiang clan disciple after another returned and gathered once more.
Jiang Daoxuan stood in place, making no other movements, as if waiting for something.
Until a ding sounded, and a system prompt appeared before his eyes.
【Ding~ Detected that the Tang family has been annihilated, family mission has been completed, settlement in progress...】
【Ding~ Based on your completion rate, this mission's rating is: Top of Grade A (full score), beginning to distribute rewards...】
【Congratulations to the host on obtaining 300 points of family fortune】
【Congratulations to the host on obtaining the Earth Grade top-quality cultivation method "Great Sun Body Refining Art"】
【Congratulations to the host on obtaining one Cultivation Acceleration Card】
【Congratulations to the host on obtaining one scroll of the Wordless Sword Manual】
【Congratulations to the host on obtaining the mysterious reward "Nüwa Visualization Diagram"】
Gazing at the generous rewards before him, Jiang Daoxuan's eyes lit up.
At the same time, the system's prompt also meant that the Tang family had indeed been completely annihilated, and only then did he gather his thoughts.
Afterwards, he led the group to raid the Tang family.
Since he wanted to vigorously develop the clan, all manner of wealth and resources naturally could not be lacking.
Before long, numerous Jiang family disciples carried out wooden chests one after another, each filled with resources such as gold, silver, jewels, cultivation techniques and martial skills, shop deeds, and land contracts.
After confirming again and again that the Tang family had been thoroughly cleaned out, with no remaining resources left behind, the group immediately joined forces to carry the chests, walked out of the Tang residence, and returned the way they had come along the main street.
Along the way, the commotion caused by the Jiang family group drew the attention of a large crowd of onlookers.
"Hiss~ what a strong smell of blood, who are these people?"
"That's Jiang Yongnian and Jiang Yongyu, I recognize them, they're from the Jiang family!"
"Look how heavy their steps are, what's in those chests?"
"That's not the point to focus on! The point is, they seem to have come out of the Tang family."
"The Tang family? Could it be that the two families..."
The onlookers present all talked at once, buzzing with discussion, as various guesses surfaced in their hearts.
At this moment, someone noticed the white-robed man walking at the very front of the procession.
"Huh? Who is this person leading the Jiang family? How come I've never seen him before, when did the Jiang family produce such a figure?"
Some of the younger people and outsiders, who had never seen Jiang Daoxuan's appearance, were rather puzzled.
However, soon some elders who had lived in Wudan City for many years recognized Jiang Daoxuan.
In the crowd, a Houtian martial artist wearing tight-fitting clothes suddenly felt a shock in his heart, his face full of disbelief, and cried out involuntarily, "That appearance, he's Jiang... Jiang Daoxuan?!"
As the words fell, it was truly a stone that stirred up a thousand ripples, instantly igniting the entire scene and causing an enormous sensation!
