Chapter 12986 The Jiang family’s fear and uneasiness
Half an hour later, the Jiang family was enveloped in an unprecedented shock. This was not only because of the short time, but also because during this period, the Jiang family suffered unprecedented heavy losses.
Hundreds of elite warriors, those warriors who usually guarded the glory and tranquility of their families, were actually killed without a sound. Their bodies were like cold flags, hung cruelly on the city wall, drifting in the breeze.
Swaying slightly, but more like the mockery of death, the whole Jiangcheng was enveloped in depression and panic.
Under the city wall, the faces of the onlookers were pale, and their eyes were full of fear and confusion. They talked in low voices, but their voices were soft, but they could not hide the horror and uneasiness in their hearts.
The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, intertwined with the low cries that came from time to time, forming a heart-stopping picture. The sky in Jiangcheng seemed to have lost its former brightness, and was covered by a thick layer of clouds.
Covered, as if even heaven and earth were mourning the misfortune of the Jiang family.
Inside the Jiang family, there was even more chaos. After Jiang Lianheng, the head of the family, received the news, his face instantly turned livid. He clenched his fists, and his nails almost dug into his palms, but he could not feel the slightest pain.
His heart was filled with anger and regret, angry at the cruelty and arrogance of his enemies, and regretful at his failure to detect danger in advance and protect his family's safety.
He quickly summoned the family's top brass and issued a series of emergency orders. All Jiang family warriors were recalled to the inner city. Whether they were on a mission or traveling abroad, they must return immediately without any mistakes.
At the same time, he personally supervised the battle and directed his family's power to seal all the doors to the outside world. Each door was fortified and guarded to the death, vowing not to allow the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of it.
In this tense and chaotic moment, Jiang Lianheng couldn't help but think of his father Jiang Yuan's heartfelt words. He had warned himself many times to be careful of that lunatic Ling Xiao, who had unpredictable madness and methods.
Now it seems that his father's words have indeed come true. Ling Xiao not only came, but also declared war on the Jiang family in such a cruel way, putting the entire family into an unprecedented crisis.
Thinking of this, Jiang Lianheng couldn't help but feel powerless and desperate. But he knew that as the head of the family, he could not fall, let alone let the family be destroyed in his hands. He must cheer up, lead the family through this difficulty, and regain the
The honor and dignity that belongs to the Jiang family.
So, he took a deep breath, suppressed all the emotions in his heart, scanned the people in front of him with firm eyes, and said in a steady and powerful voice: "Our Jiang family has never been afraid of any challenge. This time,
There is no exception. Everyone, cheer me up, and together we can protect the peace of the family!"
"Dad, how many people did Ling Xiao bring here? I carefully observed the corpses. Their death conditions were different, and their strength levels were also uneven. The weak ones seemed to be just Hunyuan realm monks, while the powerful ones even reached
The difference in strength behind this makes people feel chilly."
There was a hint of trembling in Jiang Lianheng's words and his brows were furrowed, as if every wrinkle carried his fear of the unknown and his deep concern for the future of his family.
His eyes shone with a complex light in the dim candlelight, showing both shock at the enemy's power and deep concern for the safety of his family.
Although defensive measures had been quickly deployed, the strong sense of uneasiness lingered like maggots in the bones. He knew that in the face of such a mysterious enemy with unfathomable strength, any negligence could lead to serious consequences.
fatal.
Just as Jiang Lianheng was immersed in his thoughts, a black shadow suddenly flashed across the room at a staggering speed. Almost out of instinct, he roared: "Seeking death!" Then he raised his hand, and a wave of energy gathered in his palm.
The powerful spiritual power was blasted out mercilessly.
However, the black figure seemed to be completely unaware of the coming danger, making no dodge movements, and just endured Jiang Lianheng's full blow.
With a dull crashing sound, the black shadow was thrown into the air like a kite with its string broken, and then fell heavily to the ground with a heart-stopping sound.
The room suddenly fell into deathly silence, with only the sound of candlelight flickering and the occasional sound of wind coming from the window. Jiang Lianheng was stunned. He never thought that his attack would hit the target so easily, let alone
The next scene would make him so heartbroken.
"Long'er!" When he saw the familiar figure on the ground clearly, Jiang Lianheng shouted the name almost hysterically. His voice was full of disbelief and endless grief, as if the whole world collapsed at this moment.
That dark shadow was actually his most beloved son, Jiang Long!
Jiang Lianheng stumbled forward, knelt down beside Jiang Long, and stroked his son's cold cheek with trembling hands. Tears rolled in his eyes, but they never fell.
He couldn't accept this cruel fact, let alone why his son appeared here, and why he died so easily under his attack.
At this moment, Jiang Lianheng's heart seemed to be torn into countless pieces, each piece carrying the longing for his son and the deep hatred for the enemy. He vowed to avenge his son and protect him no matter what the price.
The peace and glory of the family.
"Asshole! Ling Xiao, come out if you can. What kind of hero can you be hiding in such a dark corner? You will only make innocent people tremble in your shadow, but you don't dare to face the real challenge?"
Jiang Lianheng's roar echoed in the empty hall. His voice was hoarse with anger, and his eyes were red. Like an enraged beast, he was rushing madly in the cage, trying to find a way out. At this moment, the fear in his heart and
Anger intertwined into a complex web, binding him tightly and almost suffocating him.
His fists were clenched and veins popped out, as if he wanted to condense all his unwillingness and powerlessness into this blow. But reason told him that such anger and roaring would not change the current situation, and would only make him more helpless.
However, he couldn't control his emotions because he knew very well that what Ling Xiao did was not only to kill the Jiang family, but also to destroy their will and make them slowly suffer in endless fear and despair.
die.
"Master, please calm down." An old man with white hair and beard took a step forward, his brows furrowed and his tone full of worry.
"I understand your mood at the moment, but this matter still needs to be analyzed calmly. Although Ling Xiao is powerful, it is not easy to cause so much damage in such a short period of time, and with such strange and diverse methods. What's more,
, although his treasure is powerful, it is not omnipotent and cannot be used without restrictions."
