Chapter 166: Chaos In The Jiang Family

Outside the mirror.

Just then, someone spoke up, “Didn’t anyone notice the child inside Jiang Yunli’s abdomen?”

After he said that, many of those present suddenly froze up.

Earlier on, many of them were saddened by Jiang Yunli’s fate and had overlooked the child.

And now that their attention was focused once more on this unborn child.

Everyone’s expressions changed dramatically!

The Heavenly Emperor had a descendant!

That was a very terrifying thing, no doubt!

The Heavenly Emperor was born an extraordinary person. His very core, his bones, his sword heart, as well as his gift for cultivation were all extraordinary. How far from that could such a person’s descendant be?

On top of that, the mother was a pureblood of the Xuanyuan line.

If such a child really existed, what kind of invincible being would they become in the future?!

They had no answer to that. But they all knew that they had to find this child.

The Heavenly Emperor might die today because of them, but if this child were to grow up and become strong in the future, wouldn’t the child seek them out for revenge?!

The one blessed by the heavens, Ye Chen, had a nasty look on his face.

One little girl and one dark sparrow were already enough to turn the tables on them. If yet another child were to appear, he couldn’t imagine how things would turn out.

Even though something in his heart told him that there was a high chance that this child would probably die together with Jiang Yunli. After all, nobody had ever heard of the Heavenly Emperor having any descendants.

But there was a non-zero chance right now!

Ye Chen turned and whispered to the cultivator behind him, “Have you found the little girl from back then?”

“Sir, we haven’t.”

Ye Chen’s face twitched, then he asked, “What about the dark sparrow?”

“No, sir.”

Ye Chen’s entire face was trembling. “Hurry up and look for this child as well!”

Jiang Minghuang had a spark in his eyes.

His sister had a descendant! She had a descendant!!

Jiang Minghuang’s grief was momentarily relieved, but it was quickly replaced by great worry.

Right now, he could only hope that the Heavenly Emperor would consider that this child was his own, would consider his friendship with Jiang Minghuang, and spare the child’s life.

Jiang Minghuang stared unblinkingly at the mirror again, as if he wanted to know where this child would end up and what would happen after this.

…

Inside the mirror.

Gu Changqing sat by the window and stared at the round moon in the sky.

His gaze flickered. Nobody knew what he was thinking about.

Suddenly.

Two tragic auras suddenly engulfed the Jiang family.

“The old thing of the Jiang family! Come out here and prepare to die!”

That voice sounded like a blast of thunder that echoed in the high skies. It echoed with endless imperial might, filling the world like a flood.

The boundless spacetime suddenly exploded, pressing every member of the Jiang family on the ground.

The main hall of the Jiang family suddenly burst with a terrifying imperial might.

After that, a deafening soundwave resounded through the world, “Zheng Lang, Ji Cang! You two old things! How dare you barge into my family grounds!”

“Hahaha!”

“Old Jiang, hand the Xuanyuan Sword over! Otherwise, we’ll massacre your entire family!!”

A terrifying voice resounded loudly, echoing through the world, shaking all the lands.

“You’re asking for death!!”

…

Deafening soundwaves suddenly resounded high in the sky. Up there, three terrifying existences were fighting each other.

A horrifying divine might rose, like a volcano erupting. The thick divine might roiled in the void, causing the entire upper world to shake.

The ancestral lands of the Jiang family were also filled with the sounds of people killing each other.

Along with the metallic rings of weapons striking each other. The shrill sounds pierced the void, resounding throughout the entire estate.

That was clearly the armies from the Zheng and Ji families. They had begun fighting the soldiers of the Jiang family.

“Great chaos has arisen in the Jiang family.”

Gu Changqing suddenly muttered these words as his eyes glinted brightly.

He remained seated where he was and did not move.

He knew that the moment he had been waiting for might be coming soon.

The sounds of killing kept resounding in the skies.

The center of action was the Jiang family estate, and it covered thousands and thousands of miles around it, shocking the entire upper world.

Everywhere was the scene of people getting killed, everywhere was a battleground. All 33 layers of heaven were turned into a bottomless bloody hell by the three clans.

…

Outside the mirror.

The cultivators listened to the cries of killing coming from the mirror and stared at the unmoving Heavenly Emperor.

At this point, someone asked with surprise, “The Heavenly Emperor doesn’t intend to make a move?”

Another replied, “I’m surprised too. The powerful Zheng and Ji families have launched an attack, and even though the Jiang family has plenty of resources to fight, it might be hard to fight against both families. The Heavenly Emperor really doesn’t intend to help out?”

“Perhaps the moment that the Heavenly Emperor has been waiting for is almost here!” said another cultivator.

“If there’s chaos within the Jiang family, then that mighty one of the Xuanyuan ancestral lands might make a move. That’s probably why the Heavenly Emperor isn’t doing anything.”

“After all, the Heavenly Emperor currently doesn’t have the power to just barge into those ancestral lands. He can only wait for a chance like this. This could be his best chance in a hundred years.”

Another cultivator was surprised, “But why would the Ji and Zheng families come for the Xuanyuan Sword? I thought that the two families have joined hands because the Jiang family backed out of the marriage, causing the Ji family to be unhappy and so they joined hands with the Zheng family to annihilate the Jiang family.”
“What an idiot.”

Another cultivator scolded the other, “These three families have been standing for countless millennia. Even if the Ji family was unhappy that the Jiang family backed out of the marriage, that would be no reason for them to start such a big fight! Don’t you know how great the resources of each of these family are? Why would they fight just because of one woman?”

Another cultivator asked, “But it’s not possible for others to take the Xuanyuan Sword. Even if the two families have come because of it, they wouldn’t be able to take it away either!”

“You fool!”

The same cultivator scolded again, “Only the Jiang family knows the secret of the Xuanyuan sword! How could anyone else know about it? Didn’t we also hear this from Emperor Jiang?”

“I see, I see.”

Just then, another one piped up, “But isn’t it too cold-blooded of the Heavenly Emperor to not do anything at all? The Jiang family had been so good to him, yet in such dangerous times, he’s only thinking about his own benefits?”

The moment he said that, he immediately got attacked by the cultivators around him.

“What?! Are you a saint?”

“Or words are cheap and you can just say what you like? Don’t you remember why the Heavenly Emperor snuck into the Jiang family? Wasn’t it to take the Xuanyuan Sword?!”

“If he helps them now, how can he take the Xuanyuan Sword in the future?”

“Besides, you think the Heavenly Emperor is doing this for himself? Isn’t it for the sake of the world!”

“Without him, you wouldn’t be standing here today!!”

Everyone shouted at him together!

In front of this greater picture, they couldn’t believe there was this one person pretending to be a saint!

How did this person even survive till today?!
