Chapter 482

~4 min read 626 words

"Judging by this, these Heavenly Demon Sect cultivators are actually extremely well-suited for building an intelligence network....."

A thoughtful look flashed through Jiang Daoxuan's eyes.

Naturally, it was impossible to bring so many demonic cultivators directly back to Cangwu Mountain.

The potential risks involved were considerable, and there was no need at all to expose them.

It would be far better to bring these people to the Cangwu Merchant Guild within Cangwu City, and develop them as a covert line.

It would be just right to accelerate the construction of an intelligence network belonging exclusively to the Jiang family.

And the information the Heavenly Demon Sect had gathered over these years could perfectly supplement the gaps in the Jiang family's intelligence.

At the same time, Jiang Shan, as the president of the Cangwu Merchant Guild, was not all that strong himself.

If he encountered an accident and ended up perishing.

For the current Jiang family, that would also be an enormous loss.

Thinking of this, Jiang Daoxuan immediately made up his mind.

Once the Heavenly Demon Treasury was opened and the Life Soul Stone obtained, bringing the entire Heavenly Demon Sect into his grasp—

He would definitely dispatch Moon Wheel realm, or even Sun Wheel realm powerhouses, to serve as Jiang Shan's Dao-protectors, escorting him!

As for Wang Tong, this Myriad Phenomena True Lord, naturally he would remain at Cangwu Mountain, serving as the family's hidden foundation.

After all, one couldn't trouble Little White with every little matter—that would truly be using a cannon to swat a mosquito, a rather wasteful use.

When the clansmen ran into some trouble, they could simply dispatch Wang Tong directly.

Thinking of this, Jiang Daoxuan immediately raised his head and looked toward Wang Tong:

"Now is precisely the time when my Cangwu Jiang family is in need of talent. Past matters of every kind shall, for now, be set aside; but you still must atone for your crimes with merit. Do you have any objections?"

Wang Tong's face lit up with joy. Cupping his fists, he said, "Many thanks to the Sect Master for your grace, subordinate has no objections!"

"From this day forth, I am willing to devote this broken body of mine to serving the Jiang family with all the loyalty of a hound or a horse!"

Seeing that he had managed to keep his life, he was overjoyed—how could he possibly have any objections?

At this moment, seeing that Wang Tong was still somewhat sensible, Jiang Daoxuan gave a slight nod.

Dealing with smart people really was worry-free.

Then, he looked toward the hall entrance, and a faint smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

Then next, it was time to meet the people from the imperial court.

A few breaths later.

The entrance of the family great hall.

Gu Zheng and Yang Li paused here.

They said nothing extra, both patiently awaiting the summons of that Jiang clan leader.

As time went by.

Gu Zheng still had not heard any sound coming from within the hall.

Inside there was only endless deathly silence, making him increasingly panicked, wishing he could leave this place immediately.

But fortunately, just at this moment, Jiang Daoxuan's voice finally came from within the hall, echoing in their ears!

"Come in."

As the words fell.

Gu Zheng's brows rose slightly, yet no joy appeared on his face.

Instead, he looked exceptionally grave.

How long had it been since that mysterious Myriad Phenomena senior went in?

How could it have ended this quickly?

Although Gu Zheng's heart was full of doubts, he also understood that he could not delay at this moment.

Therefore, he clenched his teeth tightly, steeled his heart, and immediately led Yang Li forward, pushing the door open and stepping inside!
