Cultivation: Being Immortal

Zhongzhou, the entrance of the Jiang family

When Jiang Xingyuan received the news and rushed back home, the grand formation at the entrance of the Jiang family had already been activated, and even the ancestral ancestor who had been in seclusion appeared.

At the entrance of the ancestral hall, rows of white cloth were arranged. Jiang Xingyuan saw this scene and almost fainted because he already knew that his young son was also here.

The members of the Jiang family all focused their gaze on Jiang Xingyuan. Jiang Xingyuan didn’t dare to meet their eyes and quietly pushed open the doors of the ancestral hall. Inside the hall, a large group of women knelt down, while the higher-ranking members of the Jiang family surrounded them.

"Ancestor"

"Crack"

Jiang Xingyuan spoke to Void Achieving Ancestor and was instantly slapped in the face. But Jiang Xingyuan didn’t dare to say a word.

"I’m sorry, Ancestor"

Jiang Xingyuan quickly knelt down.

The Jiang family Ancestor became extremely angry. As the head of the prestigious Jiang family, he was furious that Jiang Xingyuan couldn’t even manage his own household. How could the Jiang family have such foolish descendants?

"Yes, ancestor, I know I was wrong."

"She is your woman, you deal with her."

Jiang family ancestor said. Jiang Xingyuan nodded, then stood up and turned to look at his wives.

"Wicked person, why did you kill my wife and children, and slaughter the descendants of Jiang family?"

Jiang Xingyuan angrily scolded the woman in front of him. This time, it was not only his wife and children who died, but also the wives and children of other clan members. The only common point was that these women all came from the Spiritual Moon Sect.

"Sob…"

Yang Qing from the Holy Heavenly Sect had her meridians sealed and couldn’t speak. Jiang Xingyuan used magic to release her seal.

"Haha, it was me who killed them. How about that?"

"Wicked person, do you dare to be arrogant?"

"How can it be this bad? The Jiang family is in danger of extinction right before our eyes. Why aren’t you thinking of saving yourselves? Are you waiting to die?"

"You’re talking nonsense, you insignificant person!"

I am talking nonsense? Jiang Xingyuan, you should take a look at yourself in the mirror and see what kind of person you are. How can you, with your character, expect me, the legitimate daughter of the Holy Heavenly Sect Yang family, to marry you and become your wife? Isn’t it just because you want the Jiang family to rely on my Holy Heavenly Sect?

But what about you all? You jump around, being wishy-washy. Tell me, throughout history, has any wishy-washy person had a good ending? My Holy Heavenly Sect begged you before because we were weak. Now that we are strong, we are not even afraid of the Spiritual Moon Sect. Why would we fear your Jiang family?

"I’ll kill you!"

Jiang Xingyuan became furious and was about to take action, but then Yang Qing spoke again.

"Go ahead, kill me! I, Yang Qing, am already worthy of the Holy Heavenly Sect. I have no fear of death. Now that the disciples of the Spiritual Moon Sect are already dead, if you kill me, you will have a hard time explaining to the Spiritual Moon Sect. Haha…"

Yang Qing’s madness made Jiang Xingyuan feel fear, because the woman killed by Yang Qing was also a core disciple of the Spiritual Moon Sect. The sect had made great efforts to win her over.

In addition to that, dozens of members from the Jiang family married disciples from the Spiritual Moon Sect, and now they are all dead. What would the Spiritual Moon Sect think? It is highly likely that they would see it as the Jiang family betraying them, killing their wives and daughters as a challenge.

"Great Ancestor"

Jiang Xingyuan’s raised hand couldn’t strike down anymore, he turned around to look at the cultivator from the Jiang family who has achieved the Void.

"The Holy Heavenly Sect, two hours ago, issued a command to start a large-scale purchase of special rice called spiritual paddy, magical charms called spiritual talisman, flying swords with shields, and formation plates and other supplies."

The Jiang family’s Great Ancestor only said a few words, and once again Jiang Xingyuan’s face changed drastically, because these things are the most direct combat supplies. The Holy Heavenly Sect has started comprehensive preparation for battle.

"Jiang Xingyuan, come and kill me, take action!"

"Whether I kill or not, whether I rebel or not, are there no real men in the Jiang family?"

"Coward, idiot, you hesitate and are indecisive even in this situation. How could the Jiang family have carried on for tens of thousands of years? They are nothing but a group of fools relying on the ancestral inheritance."

"Come on, Jiang Xingyuan, kill me. Bring along these twenty-six female disciples of the Holy Heavenly Sect and more than a hundred children we have given birth to, and let’s all die together. Then we can accompany the Spiritual Moon Sect in death."

Jiang Xingyuan didn’t know what to do, but Yang Qing was relentless. He shouted at Jiang Xingyuan and the others, each word stabbing at their hearts. The higher-ups of the Jiang family were all silent, unsure of how to respond.

Jiang Xingyuan listened, feeling nervous. He couldn’t make this decision lightly because if he chose the wrong side, it could lead to the destruction of the Jiang family, putting the safety of tens of thousands of their descendants at risk.

Void Achieving Ancestor observed Jiang Xingyuan’s actions and was furious. He originally thought Jiang Xingyuan was calm and a perfect candidate to lead the family. Even if he couldn’t make the Jiang family thrive, he could at least preserve it. But now it seemed he had made the biggest mistake by choosing Jiang Xingyuan to lead the Jiang family.

"To rebel or not to rebel."

Yang Qing began to lose her patience and directly threatened the Jiang family. She was ordered to marry into the Jiang family with the purpose of forcing them to rebel against the Spiritual Moon Sect, even if it meant sacrificing her own life.

"Ancestor."

"Ancestor."

Other high-ranking Jiang family members were also shocked. Yang Qing has killed so many disciples from the Spiritual Moon Sect, and they can no longer avoid this issue.

"What do you think?"

"I feel like they are relying on the Holy Heavenly Sect and looking at me."

The patriarch of the Jiang family looked at everyone and said, some people lowered their heads, while others looked up at him.

The Jiang family’s choice is indeed a dilemma. On one hand, there is the old master, and on the other hand, there is the new hero. Both sides have similar strength, and if they choose wrong, there will be no chance of recovery.

Moreover, Yang Qing has already killed all the disciples from the Spiritual Moon Sect who married into the family. If they continue to be loyal to the Spiritual Moon Sect, will the sect believe them? Will they be able to trust them in the future?

"Patriarch, shouldn’t we turn against them? The Spiritual Moon Sect is no match for the Holy Heavenly Sect, and the Holy Heavenly Sect’s momentum is strong…"

Someone stepped forward and expressed their thoughts. They believed that attaching themselves to the Holy Heavenly Sect was the right thing to do. The Holy Heavenly Sect has risen too quickly in the past hundred years, continuously increasing in strength, which gives them great confidence.

"Not good, not good…"

But there were people who disagreed, saying that Holy Heavenly Sect was slightly weaker than Spiritual Moon Sect in overall strength, so it would be better to hand these women over to Spiritual Moon Sect for handling.

·······

"Are they starting to panic?"

In the moon castle, Lin Jiang stood on a tower and saw many disciples of the Spiritual Moon Sect flying around in a state of panic.

Lin Jiang knew what was going on because news of the Holy Heavenly Sect’s preparations had spread. The financial market is very sensitive, and as soon as the news came out, many businesses in the moon castle immediately took action and began reducing their shipments.

They were waiting for the Spiritual Moon Sect to react. If the Spiritual Moon Sect didn’t take action, they would sell their goods to the Holy Heavenly Sect. These businesses are powerful and have branches in the territory of the Holy Heavenly Sect. In short, they had stockpiled so many goods that they would not suffer any losses. That’s the power of capital.

"Dad, Xu Yunyue has returned to the entrance of the Spiritual Moon Sect."

Small Shadiao hurriedly came and told Lin Jiang that he had gone to find Xu Yunyue, but Xu Yunyue was no longer in the moon castle.

"As expected, the Spiritual Moon Sect cannot slowly prepare for war."

"Does that mean we are going to get rich again?"

"Yes, this is the trend. If the enemy is preparing for war, the Spiritual Moon Sect would be seeking death if they don’t prepare too."

"But Dad, aren’t we cooperating with the Spiritual Moon Sect? Is it really okay to keep making money from them like this?"

"What’s there to be embarrassed about? We can still make money, cooperate, and not have conflicts."

Lin Jiang said. This is nothing. If he didn’t have a grudge against Yang Luo, he would still cooperate with the Holy Heavenly Sect and make money. No need to worry, it’s a common practice in capitalism.

"Alright, Dad, you have the final say."

"Small Shadiao, remember, if Xu Yunyue tries to manipulate you, don’t act foolishly."

"Look at what you’re saying, am I that kind of person?"

"You’re not human!"

"Hehe, Dad is right. So, Dad, how much stockpile do we have?"

"Not much, just enough for you to have three years’ worth of vitality pills."

"·····"

Little Shadiao was speechless, can we not talk about this, just be quiet if you can’t chat.

"Go contact those Talisman Makers, let them stockpile raw materials, speed up the production of spiritual talismans, we can buy at a slightly higher price. Also, find friends from other merchants to exchange information with."

Lin Jiang said, among the students he taught, many of them were Talisman Makers from other merchants. These Talisman Makers would not sell spiritual talismans to him anymore, but would choose other ways of cooperation, including exchanging messages.

"Okay, Dad."

Little Shadiao hurriedly left again.

Lin Jiang continued to look into the distance. Now he was not sure whether the Spiritual Moon Sect would engage in battle or just defend. But Lin Jiang hoped they would fight, only by fighting could Yang Luo be killed.

"I will also participate in this battle."

Lin Jiang made up his mind. In this battle, he also wanted to find an opportunity to join the fight. He felt that others were not reliable, only he had to go personally, to eliminate any future troubles by killing Yang Luo.
