Chapter 479

Seeing Wang Tong express his submission.

Jiang Daoxuan waved his hand casually.

An invisible force surged forth and settled upon Wang Tong.

Under the influence of this force.

Wang Tong felt an immense relief, his body suddenly light.

Immediately afterward, his body rose involuntarily to its feet.

Just as Wang Tong was plunged into shock and doubt.

The Heaven Demon Talisman, which had lain on the ground, suddenly floated upward, lifted by spiritual energy to hover before his eyes.

Seeing the Heaven Demon Talisman, which he had sought for centuries, so close at hand.

Though his eyes burned with longing, Wang Tong dared not reach out to take it.

One breath later.

Jiang Daoxuan's voice drifted softly through the air.

"You seemed quite eager when you first saw this object..."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap exploding!

Wang Tong's expression changed drastically; he silently cursed his misfortune!

He instantly realized his momentary greed had been detected by Jiang Daoxuan!

To protect himself, he hastily averted his gaze, daring not to look at the Heaven Demon Talisman again.

He immediately stepped forward, swiftly approaching Jiang Daoxuan's side.

Thud.

Wang Tong suddenly knelt, clutching Jiang Daoxuan's right leg with both hands, pleading earnestly:

"The Heaven Demon Talisman has always been held by the sect's successive leaders, symbolizing absolute authority within the sect—how could a lowly Guardian like myself dare to covet it?"

"I merely felt a pang of emotion upon seeing it again after our late Lord's tragic death..."

If before he had understood this Jiang clan chief's true strength,

he had still harbored some thoughts about the Heaven Demon Talisman,

firmly believing that it belonged to whoever was worthy of it!

But now that he understood the terrifying power of this man,

his perspective had completely changed.

To protect himself, he could only choose to bow his head.

Obeying the eight-character truth: "See the Heaven Demon Talisman, see the Lord!"

And at this moment,

seeing how Wang Tong, the Ten Thousand Forms True Dragon, could bend and flex as needed,

Jiang Daoxuan's eyes grew thoughtful.

He extended his right palm and placed it atop Wang Tong's head, as if patting a household dog.

His expression turned playful: "So it seems you're quite loyal?"

He knew full well this man was not nearly as honest as he appeared.

But it didn't matter.

Before absolute power, this man could stir no trouble at all.

Thus, he slowly withdrew his right palm.

Under Wang Tong's anxious gaze,

Jiang Daoxuan clasped his hands behind his back and said gravely: "Speak. How has the Heaven Demon Sect fared today?"

Since the Heaven Demon Sect was founded by Jiang family ancestors,

it naturally belonged to him, as clan chief, to inherit.

Moreover, the Cangwu Jiang Clan had developed only recently,

and still lacked a portion of its core strength.

These Heaven Demon Sect followers would make suitable peripheral members for the Cangwu Jiang Clan.

Hearing Jiang Daoxuan's question,

Wang Tong's heart lurched, his expression turning hesitant.

After all, if the man learned exactly how he had turned the Heaven Demon Sect and the Jiang Clan into this mess,

he might fly into a rage and strike him down.

And at this moment, seeing Wang Tong's hesitation, Jiang Daoxuan raised an eyebrow, instantly sensing something was amiss.

Seems he's feeling guilty...

Thinking this, Jiang Daoxuan shook his head and said nothing more.

His right leg shifted slightly, instantly freeing itself from Wang Tong's grip.

With a light kick, he sent Wang Tong flying several meters, rolling across the ground in circles!

Jiang Daoxuan turned to Xiao Bai and ordered: "I have little patience. Take care of him for me..."

With that, he slowly closed his eyes and resumed his meditation on the Sword Dao.

"Yes, Master!"

Jiang Xiao's face lit up with a bright, innocent smile.

He bounced over happily to Wang Tong's side.

Seeing that Jiang Daoxuan himself had not moved, only sent a little brat over,

Wang Tong first let out a breath of relief.

Then, his expression gradually turned strange.

I am, after all, a cultivator of the Myriad Manifestations realm!

Losing to you, Jiang Daoxuan, would be one thing.

But how could you call a child over to humiliate me?!

This thought had only just flashed through his mind.

The next moment.

Wang Tong instantly understood just how absurdly wrong his thinking had been!

Boom—

An extremely muffled sound of something tearing through the air rang out!

Immediately after, a black shadow arrived before him with the speed of lightning.

A fist was thrown, slamming into his chest!

Wang Tong's face went white, and he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood!

At this moment, he only felt a churning within his body.

The elemental force gathered before his chest was completely shattered!

His entire skeleton felt as though it were falling apart, producing an intense, almost unbearable pain!

What terrifying strength...

Wang Tong's heart trembled, his whole body lost its strength, and he could not help but collapse to the ground, curling into a ball.

By now, no matter how stupid he was, he realized he had misjudged the situation!

How could this be a child?

It was clearly more like a primordial ferocious beast!

With just the force of a single fist, he, who possessed a cultivation base at the second layer of the Myriad Manifestations realm, had been grievously wounded.

Such an overwhelmingly terrifying level of strength.

Was probably yet another top-tier expert no weaker than the Imperial Preceptor Yuwen Feng!

Damn it! What the hell kind of place is this Cangwu Jiang family?

How could two invincible experts of this caliber suddenly appear out of nowhere?!
