Chapter 505

So, in order not to arouse the other's displeasure.

He could no longer be bothered by the fact that there were still outsiders around.

He hurriedly knelt down and said respectfully, "Understood, understood, it was this one's overstepping…"

Seeing this, Qin Xue was startled once again.

One had to know that when the Grand Protector was in the cult, he had always been one who brooked no contradiction, a master whom none dared to defy!

When had anyone ever seen the Grand Protector reveal such a humble posture?

Realizing that the youth before her was an extraordinary great figure.

Qin Xue, in order to preserve her son's life, did not dare to be negligent, and could only relate her own situation truthfully.

Upon hearing that the woman before him was the wife of Cult Master Jiang Zhongming.

A faint light flickered in Jiang Xiao's eyes, and his expression could not help but soften.

After all, these people were all their master's clansmen, and would later return to Cangwu Mountain, sharing weal and woe with the clan.

Their importance was naturally not something Wang Tong, a temporary hired thug, could compare to.

At this moment, he noticed the visible tension on Qin Xue's face.

He understood that the other party had been frightened quite badly by himself and Wang Tong.

He immediately said in a gentle voice, "There is no need to panic. I harbor no hostility this time; on the contrary, I have come precisely to rescue you…"

"Rescue?"

Qin Xue's heart gave a jolt, she abruptly raised her head, an expression of disbelief spreading across her face!

The pleasant surprise had come too suddenly.

It made her even wonder if she had misheard something!

Such a terrifying existence who could casually command Wang Tong, had actually come to rescue them?!

How could this be possible? Am I still dreaming?!

At the same time.

Black-and-White Venerable widened his dog-eyes, filled with astonishment!

His gaze shifted back and forth between Jiang Xiao and Qin Xue.

He could not help but feel immense bewilderment.

After hearing Qin Xue's account, he had long understood what a destitute state the current Jiang Clan was in.

There wasn't even a single Purple Mansion realm cultivator!

Yet, such a clan that appeared weak to the point of pitifulness, possessing not the slightest allure, had actually attracted the descent of such a supreme powerhouse, who had come specifically to rescue the people of the Jiang Clan—truly strange!

Seeing that both the person and the dog had fallen into a dazed state.

Jiang Xiao smiled, then his expression immediately turned solemn.

He was seen clasping his hands behind his back, puffing out his chest and raising his head, imitating the peerless bearing that was less than a ten-thousandth of his master's, and said in a deep voice:

"Heh, listen well. I am Jiang Xiao, Hall Master of the Spirit Beast Hall, of the Cangwu Jiang Clan!"

"I have come here this time by order of the Clan Chief, my lord, specifically to rescue you all, and to bring you back to Cangwu!"

No sooner had the words fallen.

A tremendously powerful aura suddenly erupted, shooting straight into the heavens, stirring the celestial phenomena!

In but an instant, the weather that had originally been clear skies for ten thousand li actually became overcast with dark clouds, lightning flashing and thunder rumbling, a gale raging wildly!

Witnessing all these strange omens.

Qin Xue's pupils contracted, her expression instantly froze, and she stammered, "C-Cangwu, the Jiang Clan?"

She naturally would not feel unfamiliar with the four great characters "Cangwu Jiang Clan."

After all, not long ago she had learned from her own husband about the matter of the Cangwu Jiang Clan being suspected descendants of the Ninth Young Master, and Wang Tong going to Cangwu Mountain to investigate.

Yet in her original imagination, this Cangwu Jiang Clan would surely be unable to stop Wang Tong, and if things went badly, might even face the catastrophe of clan annihilation.

But now?

Not only was the Cangwu Jiang Clan perfectly safe, even Wang Tong, this True Lord of Ten Thousand Phenomena, had to curry favor with the other party, looking as if he had already been subdued and become a henchman.

Such a development of events was completely wrong!

On the other side.

After hearing Jiang Xiao's words.

Black-and-White Venerable instantly caught the key point within them.

Return?

Could it be that this Cangwu Jiang Clan truly is the descendant of that lad Zheren?

Thinking of this, Black-and-White Venerable instantly became dog-struck dumbfounded, falling into a state of doubting his entire existence.

Even he had never imagined that this terrifying existence actually hailed from the Cangwu Jiang Clan, descendants of the Ninth Young Master!

Thinking of that Jiang Zheren of the past, whose aptitude was ordinary yet who had received Jiang Mingsheng's boundless favor.

Among his descendants, there would actually be born such a supreme powerhouse who far surpassed his ancestors.

Black-and-White Venerable found it incomprehensible.

Yet, what made him shudder even more upon deeper reflection was.

Such an invincible powerhouse who, looking across the Nine Nations, scarcely had any opponent, did not appear to be the strongest of the Cangwu Jiang Clan!

He was merely an ordinary Hall Master.

God only knew how many Hall Masters there actually were in this Cangwu Jiang Clan.

And whether these Hall Masters all possessed invincible strength like the person before him.

These doubts could not be answered.

But what the Black and White Venerable was absolutely certain of was—

The clan leader of the Cangwu Jiang family, who could subdue a host of hall masters, must undoubtedly possess even more terrifying strength!

Placed within the Imperial Court, he would surely be a top-tier great figure!

Thinking of all this, a sudden gleam shone in the Black and White Venerable's eyes.

The Cangwu Jiang family's strength and foundation were this terrifying.

And from the looks of it, the others still did not know.

Did this not present him with an opportunity?

He only needed to go put in some effort (play the lickspittle), and in the future, rising to greatness was not impossible!

Even obtaining a true fleshly body for himself was by no means a delusion!

Indeed, opportunities are always reserved for dogs that are prepared......

The Black and White Venerable was overjoyed, and immediately exerted every ounce of strength, leaping down from Qin Xue's embrace.

Under Qin Xue's astonished gaze.

And under Jiang Xiaobai's curious gaze.

The Black and White Venerable swiftly moved his short little limbs, wobbling his chubby body, and trotted to Jiang Xiaobai's feet.

He poked out his head, nuzzled Jiang Xiaobai's trouser leg, wore a fawning look, and said ingratiatingly:

"The moment I laid eyes on you, my lord Bai, I felt your bearing was extraordinary, your divine might unmatched, as if an immortal from the nine heavens had descended into this mortal realm—truly impossible not to feel admiration......."

Seeing the Black and White Venerable begin his unceasing torrent of flattery.

Qin Xue stiffened abruptly.

Was this still the unfathomably profound Senior Black and White from moments ago?

How had he suddenly become like this?

Such a drastic change in temperament.

If she had not personally seen him leap out from her embrace with her own eyes, she would have begun to suspect she had mistaken the dog.

And at this moment, Wang Tong's expression was no better either.

Even he had not expected that this Black and White Venerable, who had once lorded it over them on the strength of his seniority, putting on airs of a transcendent sage, would one day reveal such an attitude!

At this moment, the sourness he had felt over the Heavenly Demon Sword's recognition of a master vanished in an instant!

The true spirit of the Heavenly Demon Sword was actually this sort of thing?

While Wang Tong felt mockery in his heart, he could not help but sense a wave of crisis.

This fellow was simply too good at licking—if he truly won my lord Bai's favor, would his own position not plummet again and again, living worse than a dog?

Thinking of this, Wang Tong clenched his fists tightly, raised his head, and prepared to speak out once more.
