Chapter 34

The Sun Clan Leader looked at the Gao Clan Leader with the kind of gaze one would give an idiot.

You have to understand, this is Jiang Daoxuan! How dare you poison him so directly? Aren't you worried the plan will fail and he'll retaliate?

Ding Xuan, seated in the armchair, also looked at the Gao Clan Leader, a strange expression crossing his face.

To think that even poisoning the Purple Spirit Elixir couldn't kill Jiang Daoxuan — what a bunch of useless trash.

At this moment, Jiang Chen's eyes went wide, greatly surprised.

He had not expected that his own clan leader, while in closed-door cultivation, would actually have encountered such a deadly peril!

Thinking of this, a towering fury suddenly welled up within him.

Immediately after, he stepped out from behind Jiang Daoxuan, came before the crowd, raised his hand, pointed at the Gao Clan Leader, and rebuked angrily: "What a fine Gao family! You truly have some monstrous dog-guts! How dare you tamper with the elixir, preparing to poison our clan leader? If it weren't for our clan leader's heaven-blessed fortune, you would have actually succeeded."

"You've already done something so shameless, and you still expect our Jiang family to forgive you? Pfft! Dream on! For a thing like this, even letting you die ten thousand times wouldn't be enough to make up for it!"

The furious voice rang through the great hall, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

Ding Xuan casually glanced at Jiang Chen. Seeing that he was merely a youth, a faint smile tugged at his lips.

A mere Houtian realm second-layer cultivation base, yet he dares to leap out in front of so many people and rebuke the Gao Clan Leader, a Xiantian realm eighth-layer expert — quite the boldness indeed.

At this moment, being rebuked by a junior like this, the Gao Clan Leader immediately felt his face could not take it, and his expression abruptly darkened.

But before the Gao Clan Leader could speak, his own son Gao Jingshan cut in first: "How audacious! If the Jiang Clan Leader were to hold me accountable, I would naturally have nothing to say. But my father is, after all, the leader of a clan — how can a junior like you rebuke him at will? Is this how your Jiang family teaches its children?"

Seeing that Ding Xuan, the City Lord, was present, he figured the Jiang family wouldn't dare go too far, and so his courage grew considerably.

After being rebuked in turn by Gao Jingshan on the matter of family upbringing.

Jiang Chen's fury grew ever stronger, his chest heaving with rage.

But this time, he forcibly held it back, and immediately looked toward his own clan leader.

Seeing his own heaven-favored one suffer such grievance, Jiang Daoxuan turned to look at Gao Jingshan, his gaze icy, and said sternly: "How my Jiang family conducts itself needs no instruction from outsiders. Truly not knowing what is good for you. Chen'er, go over there and slap his mouth twenty times, let him understand the principle that disaster comes from the mouth."

Seeing that the other side was actually shielding their own so blatantly, Gao Jingshan's face changed: "Jiang Clan Leader, no matter how you look at it, you are a great figure. This junior doesn't know better, but how could you follow along and act rashly?"

Jiang Daoxuan's expression did not change.

But Jiang Chen could no longer suppress the fury in his heart. He strode forward, raised his arm, and spread his five fingers wide.

"Just who do you think you are, daring to lecture our clan leader on what to do?! You deserve a slap!"

As the words fell, a palm strike flew out!
