There is less than half the time left before the one-year appointment with the Ji family. For Jiang Sheng, improving his cultivation and strength is the top priority.
During his cultivation, he paid attention to the law of having a wealthy partner. Although money came first, after dominating Xiangtan and with the support of the Han Yue Group, Jiang Sheng was no longer particularly short of money.
But he still decided to participate in the Chu family's business war, and the most fundamental purpose was to improve his cultivation.
The Nine-turn Heaven-Swallowing Technique consumes too much energy, and the medicinal materials and cultivation resources that can be bought with money can only play a very limited role in Jiang Sheng's improvement.
Those natural resources and treasures that are useful to Jiang Sheng are rare opportunities.
Therefore, when Jiang Sheng heard that he was going to confront Cihang Jingzhai, a first-grade sect, he had already decided to use the Nine Turns of Heaven Swallowing Technique to improve his cultivation by devouring the energy of the strong.
For Jiang Sheng, this is definitely the fastest way to improve his cultivation.
After the Nie family, Yang family and Morgan family were all involved, Jiang Sheng became even more excited.
Jiang Sheng would not use such cruel methods as the Heaven Swallowing Technique to kill innocent people indiscriminately, but if the enemy wanted to kill him, he could turn it into a cauldron for practicing martial arts without any psychological burden.
This is the fundamental reason why Jiang Sheng has been holding back and trying to stimulate all forces to use force against him. This is also the reason why he was so disappointed when he heard that all forces were cowed.
As Jiang Sheng used the Heaven-Swallowing Technique on Chu Tieshan, the fruits of a lifetime of cultivation for this innate strong man with intact physical fitness were taken by Jiang Sheng as his own.
Seeing Chu Tieshan's energy taken away by Jiang Sheng, everyone was shocked except Qinglong, who had long known that Jiang Sheng had such evil powers.
"He, his method of benefiting himself at the expense of others is an evil heretic. If people in the world know about it, he will most likely be surrounded and suppressed by all major forces."
As a man of the world, Wu Zian stared at Jiang Sheng solemnly and muttered: "Since ancient times, there has been no coexistence between good and evil, and the strong men from all sides are very afraid of and hate this method that can seize other people's cultivation..."
"It's not as serious as you said."
Dongfang Wushuang interrupted Wu Zian impatiently: "Although Jiang Sheng has this method, he has never used it on innocent people. At the moment, he is only using it on people who want to kill him."
"In the face of those who want to kill us, no matter what method we use to fight back, it is reasonable and no one can find fault."
"But……"
"Don't worry! This guy is quite a thief. He set up this Kirigakure formation in advance just to block the news."
Qinglong, who has been following Jiang Sheng, knows Jiang Sheng very well: "Today's Longquan Villa is a forbidden place where those who enter will die. Jiang Sheng is preparing to turn all the strong men who break into it into a furnace for cultivation, leaving no one behind."
If he is alive, then the news will naturally not spread."
"This is what he did in King Dan's tomb."
"That's true."
Wu Zian nodded, but felt helpless in his heart: "My Xuande sect is a well-known and decent sect, but I didn't expect that now I would be mixed up with Jiang Sheng, who is proficient in such evil methods."
"If we had not known that this person was related to Qingfeng Sword God, Xuandemen would never have associated with him."
"Now that we have boarded the pirate ship, we have only one way to go."
…
After receiving the news that the Morgan family offered a reward for Jiang Sheng's killing, both the Nie family in Longjing and the Yang family in the Demon City sent people to prepare to take the nearest flight to Shandong.
Although Cihang Jingzhai also took action, as a Jianghu force, their actions were far less swift than those of the Nie family and the Yang family.
The temptation of a reward worth hundreds of billions is too great.
The Nie family, the Yang family and even Cihang Jingzhai were all worried that someone would get ahead of them, so they all took action immediately, hoping to capture Jiang Sheng's head and then monopolize the 100 billion bounty.
It's a pity that no matter how fast they are, they can't compare to the Chu family who are near the water.
Of course, the speed of paying the price is far slower than that of the Chu family.
Longjing Capital City, Airport!
"Yuan'er, the old man asked you to personally lead the team to Shandong, but I'm still a little worried after all."
Nie Hanghang looked solemnly at the tall young man in front of him who was wearing a black windbreaker, with sharp eyes and a strong aura.
This young man's name is Nie Yuan, he is Nie Hang's eldest son and Nie Chu's eldest brother.
Nie Yuan is by no means comparable to the second-generation ancestors like Nie Chu and Nie Zhang.
This person is the most talented disciple in the history of the Nie family. He has practiced hard since he was a child and has reached the peak of Grand Master in the past few years. He is the most likely candidate of the Nie family to break through to the innate realm.
"Father, don't worry. I will definitely take the head of Jiang Sheng's thief when I go to avenge my second brother and save the face of the Chu family."
Nie Yuan expressed his stance murderously.
Nie Yuan, who was practicing in seclusion, had already developed murderous intentions towards Jiang when he learned that Jiang Sheng's brother died tragically, causing heavy losses to the Nie family.
At that time, sky-high bounties had not yet appeared, and neither the Nie family nor Nie Hangzhou would let Nie Yuan seek revenge on Jiang Sheng, and were reluctant to let him take risks.
But now that a high-priced reward appeared, the Nie family decided to send eleven powerful masters to accompany Nie Yuan to Shandong to hunt Jiang Sheng.
"Never underestimate the enemy."
Nie Hangkong reminded him seriously: "After you arrive in Shandong, first inquire whether Wu Zian from Xuandemen will leave, and then make a decision."
"Although the news we got is that Wu Zian left with Han Ling and Ji Changtian, if he stays behind secretly, you must not take action."
"It doesn't matter!"
Nie Yuan waved his hand nonchalantly: "Although I only have the peak cultivation level of a grand master, my grandfather said that ordinary early stage innates are no match for me."
"What's more, there are eleven great masters in the family who are cooperating with me. If Wu Zian dares to meddle in his own business, I will kill him as well."
"Don't be impulsive!"
Hearing this, Nie Hanghang's expression changed slightly and he solemnly said: "You can take your time in killing Jiang Sheng, but you are the hope of the Nie family and you must not take risks."
"You go over first to find out the truth. I will discuss the arrangements with the old man when I get back..."
"I understand, you and grandpa just wait for my good news!"
Nie Yuan interrupted Nie Hangqing impatiently, turned around and greeted the eleven powerful masters to enter the security gate.
"Old man, why aren't you willing to take action yourself?"
Looking at Nie Yuan's back, Nie Hangkong stomped his feet in complaint, turned around and ran outside.
It is said that under the emperor's feet, it is a crime to wield force.
After all, Longjing Capital City is an imperial capital. Except for those top wealthy families that are inseparable from the central power, the power of other wealthy families is very limited.
On the one hand, it is because there are too many wealthy families in Longjing Capital City, and the competition for cultivation resources is fierce;
On the other hand, too much force will arouse the fear of the top officials.
Therefore, although the Nie family is a wealthy family in the capital city of Longjing and has considerable power, its military force is relatively weak. The entire Nie family has only one innate strong man, the old man.
It is precisely because of the existence of Mr. Nie, an innate strong man, that the Nie family can be ranked among the wealthy families in Longjing.
Nie Hanging's original intention was for the old man of the Nie family to personally take action and kill Jiang Sheng with ease.
Unexpectedly, the old man sent Nie Yuan out, which made Nie Hanging very worried.
