The sun slowly set, and the night gradually fell.
Jiang Feng was still standing outside the Mu Estate. He did not leave. No matter how the Mu Estate's attitude was, no matter what purpose the people from the Imperial City had, he only wanted to see Mu Rongxue. He only wanted to know her attitude.
If he didn't mean it, it wouldn't be a big deal to meet in the same direction.
If it was intentional, there was no need to be afraid of going to the world together.
"Crack!"
The door of the Mu Estate opened in response. Jiang Feng's cold eyes flickered for a moment. Soon after, the green clothed man and the others walked out accompanied by Mu Yuanshan.
"Don't worry, Master Dong. I will get everything ready as soon as possible." Mu Yuanshan personally walked out of the mansion. His attitude was very respectful. He actually called the man in green as Master Dong. It could be imagined how powerful the other party's background was.
One must know that Mu Yuanshan had condensed three Violet Manors, while the man in green was still in the Body Tempering stage and did not enter the Violet Manor. It was obvious that his background had completely surpassed the status brought by his strength.
Jiang Feng stepped forward, looked at Mu Yuanshan and asked, "Uncle Mu, how is Rong Xue? I want to see her."
"Hmm?"
The young master of the East frowned, his gaze landing on Jiang Feng for the first time. There was a hint of amusement in his tone of disdain as he chuckled, "Interesting."
Mu Yuanshan's face changed and he hurriedly said, "Master Dong, leave this trivial matter to me."
"I don't have much time. Tomorrow, I will set off." The young master didn't refuse Mu Yuanshan, but he didn't look at him seriously. His arrogance seemed to have been imprinted into his bones.
"Don't worry, Master Dong. There's no problem at all." Mu Yuanshan quickly said and then ordered Chen Xing behind him, "Hurry up and get the horse ready."
With the frigid horse brought over, young master Dong and his men mounted their horses and slowly left the Mu Estate. When they passed by Jiang Feng, he paused for a moment and looked down at Jiang Feng with mocking eyes.
"For a long time, no one dares to talk to me like you do. I think you should understand that even if you have courage, you need to be equally strong. Otherwise, you will only regret it."
Jiang Feng looked to the side and stared coldly at the other, not saying a word.
Childe Dong grinned with sarcasm. After walking for a while, he said to the people around him, "Check the relationship between him and the Mu Mansion."
After the young man and others left, Mu Yuanshan breathed a long sigh of relief and then looked at Jiang Feng. There was no kindness on his face, only a strange indifference.
"Jiang Feng, one must face reality in the end. There are many things that cannot be forced."
"In fact, ordinary people also have ordinary lives. A normal life is also a kind of happy life."
After saying this, Mu Yuanshan did not stay any longer. He turned around and walked to the mansion. At the same time, he ordered Chen Xing, "Don't step into the mansion for anyone who has nothing to do with the Mu Mansion."
It had nothing to do with him.
Jiang Feng's body trembled and froze on the spot. Looking at Mu Yuanshan's back, it was the first time that he felt so strange.
Suddenly, Jiang Feng smiled. That's right, a smile appeared on his face because he had given up on the Mu Estate.
"I just want to know what Rongxue's attitude is in this matter." Jiang Feng asked loudly as he looked at Mu Yuanshan's back.
Mu Yuanshan did not answer, and the door closed, like a line separating Jiang Feng and Mu Mansion.
"You good-for-nothing, why don't you get lost? Do you want us brothers to teach you how to behave?" Chen Xing and the others shouted. In their opinion, without the protection of the Mu Estate, Jiang Feng could be humiliated at will.
Jiang Feng's cold gaze swept over them one by one before he left the Mu Estate.
He knew that he would definitely not be able to see Mu Rongxue tonight. However, the green-clothed man had previously said that they would set off tomorrow. Then, Mu Rongxue would definitely appear tomorrow and he would come at that time.
...
Late at night, in the best Courier Station in South Hill City.
A figure flashed quickly and went straight to a house. He knelt on one knee and said respectfully, "Young master, I've figured it out."
"Speak." On the opposite side, the azure-clothed man sat cross-legged on the bed without opening his eyes.
The man stepped forward and said a few words to the man in green. In an instant, the man in green opened his eyes, and there seemed to be two beams of bright light blooming. His body revealed a faint sharp killing intent.
"It's good to have been in contact with him for five years."
The man in green sneered, and his killing intent was rising. "Mu Rongxue has to enter the Che family in the end. Her past must be clean. No matter what happened to them in the past, that good-for-nothing can't be kept. Kill him!"
"Yes." The man left. Soon, several shadows rushed out of the Courier Station and disappeared in the dark.
On the other side, Jiang Feng walked aimlessly on the streets of South Hill City. His expression was numb, as if he'd lost his soul.
Within a day, his world had changed completely. The Mu Mansion that he regarded as his home, the kind Uncle Mu, actually regarded him as a person who had nothing to do with it.
Even though Jiang Feng's personality was extraordinary, his heart couldn't help but grow numb and hard to calm down.
However, he soon understood. So what if the human nature was fickle? He had already given up on the Mu Estate. Right now, he only cared about Mu Rongxue's attitude. Furthermore, he still had a grandfather who doted on him.
Therefore, he just needed to do his best.
Jiang Feng calmed himself down and prepared to go home, but what he didn't know was that danger was already spreading towards him.
"Grandpa."
When he returned to his residence, Jiang Feng called out to him out of habit, but no one responded. It seemed that his grandfather had yet to return from his hunting.
He pushed open the door and entered. However, right at this moment...
Weng!
A beam of light suddenly shot out like lightning, piercing through the air and pressing down on Jiang Feng like a wave.
All of a sudden, Jiang Feng's heart began to beat wildly. He felt as if there was a mountain on his body that made him unable to move. Following that, several sounds of air piercing rang out from all directions as countless wild and violent forces bombarded him from all directions.
"Guards from Imperial City!"
Jiang Feng's expression suddenly changed when he saw who it was. They actually found this place and tried to kill him. Was it because of the arrogant youth's revenge, or was it because of the shadow of the Mu Estate?
Jiang Feng didn't have the time to think about it. In his haste, he instinctively retreated. However, without absorbing any spirit energy, how would he be able to retreat safely in the face of the sudden attack of several Tempered Body 7th Layer martial practitioners and even a Tempered Body 8th Layer martial practitioner?
Peng!
Pu...
Jiang Feng avoided a few attacks, but a large number of them still hit him and sent him flying. Before he landed, he spat out a mouthful of blood.
He couldn't be bothered with checking his injuries. The moment he landed on the ground, Jiang Feng rolled on the ground, wanting to escape this place.
These people were not here to humiliate him, but to kill him. With his strength, he was no match for them at all. Fortunately, his grandfather did not come back, otherwise, it would be unimaginable.
"If you run away, who will bury your grandfather?"
A mocking sound rang out. At the same time, a dark shadow streaked across the air and landed in front of Jiang Feng with a thud.
In an instant, Jiang Feng's eyes widened and his face was blank.
It was not an item, but a white-haired old man with a dark long saber that pierced through his chest.
"Grandpa!"
The next moment, Jiang Feng roared and threw himself to his grandfather's side, tears streaming down his face.
He had thought that his grandfather had not returned yet, but he had been killed. This was his only relative, but he had been implicated because of him.
He could ignore the ruthlessness of the Mu family, the humiliation of Chen Xing and the others, and the arrogance of the people from the Imperial City, but he cared very much about his grandfather and his only family in the world.
The Taoists were not devils, but only by her grandfather's side.
But at this moment, there was an eternal separation between heaven and earth.
"Who killed him!" Jiang Feng spat out three words through gritted teeth. His trembling body was emanating a piercingly cold aura.
The leading eighth level Body Tempering martial artist came to Jiang Feng's side with a long saber. "I originally didn't want to kill him. This damned old man is courting death, but don't worry, you will soon be reunited."
Jiang Feng didn't say anything and looked at his grandfather with his hazy eyes. It was as if he'd seen his stooped grandfather instructing him. The scene was so warm.
What a man, full of righteousness and indomitable spirit...
The familiar words seemed to be ringing in his ears, but he felt so heart-wrenching and heartbreaking.
"Grandpa, you've been teaching me this the entire time. You've always been evil and righteous. You have to be upright and upright, and a good man needs to be upright and upright, but..." Jiang Feng hugged his grandfather's body tightly. There was a hint of reluctance in his grief, and even a sense of unwillingness.
At the same time, the space around him began to ripple. There was a layer of ink on his body, and it was getting thicker and thicker.
"But I can't even protect my closest kin. What's the use of my righteousness?"
What's the use of it...
What's the use...
Jiang Feng threw his head back and howled angrily. He hated the heavens for not being fair and the lives of good people were bitter. Since this was the case, why should he be righteous and righteous?
His body grew darker and darker, turning from pitch-black to pitch-black. It was incomparably deep.
The night wind blew, and his clothes fluttered. He also turned black. Not only that, but his eyes and hair also turned dark, as if they had been stained with ink.
In addition to black, there was also coldness. It was lonely and cold, with killing intent.
At the same time, the rippling space transformed into a whirlpool, pouring into Jiang Feng's body from all directions.
"The heavens are unfair, it doesn't matter if I don't want my righteous spirit. It doesn't matter if I become a devil with a single thought. I am the ruler of justice." Jiang Feng's tone was cold as he pronounced each word clearly. "Old devil, didn't you always want me to join the devil? As long as I can kill the enemy with my hands, what does it matter if I fulfill your wish? Come!"
"Good!" The old devil said softly. He was neither sad nor happy.
As the vortex around him continued to flow in, Jiang Feng's aura grew colder and colder.
His clothes fluttered in the wind, and his black hair fluttered in the air. The pitch-black air circled around his entire body, as if a demon had descended upon him.
"Not good, he wants to break through. Kill him!" Seeing this scene, the eighth level Body Tempering martial artist's face stiffened. Fear and ominous feelings welled up in his heart.
"Blood for blood!"
A cold voice came out of Jiang Feng's mouth as a black light shot up into the sky and stepped into the seventh level of the Body Tempering stage without any hindrance. His cold gaze swept over the crowd, causing their hearts to tremble.
