Starting from the prison, an infinite simulation
Chapter 40 A Clever Scheme
"Hmph, so what if we add you, Zhang Yuan? Aren't you really afraid of that person's wrath?"
"So, when the time comes, I can wipe out both of your families with a single finger?"
Faced with the combined pressure of spiritual energy from two directions, Li Tianyun was momentarily overwhelmed and his words carried a strong sense of threat.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan's imposing aura diminished slightly, and his expression became somewhat stunned.
All three of them had met that man before and were well aware of his methods and power.
Li Tianyun's words were definitely not just a threat; if anything were to happen, the Zhang family's centuries-old legacy would be destroyed in his hands.
If that's the case, how can he face his ancestors?
Li Tianyun keenly sensed Zhang Yuan's wavering, then sneered at Jiang Xuan, "Jiang Xuan, you've witnessed that person's abilities, haven't you? Are you really planning to break off all pretense?"
Jiang Xuan's expression stiffened slightly, and the killing move he was gathering in his hand paused.
Of the three, none knew the strength of that person better than him. He had previously tested that person and almost killed him.
Therefore, Li Tianyun's statement about annihilating both families was less of a threat and more of a fact.
That lord could not only destroy two families, but also wipe out the entire Holy Dragon Imperial State!
Suddenly, the entire hall fell silent. Both heads of the two families remained silent, so how could the disciples dare to utter a sound?
As for the sect leaders who always change their allegiance to the wind, they remained aloof, acting as if it were none of their business.
After all, no one wanted to anger that person.
It's not that they've seen that person before, but even Jiang Xuan and Zhang Yuan seem to be afraid of him.
This shows how terrifying that person is. If you were to rashly step forward at this time, it would be tantamount to provoking that person.
I doubt anyone present would dare to utter a sound.
"Sigh, Jiang Xuan is usually quite cunning, why is he acting like a coward now?"
Just when everyone thought no one dared to speak, a clear, youthful voice slowly rang out.
All eyes in the hall immediately focused on Jiang Yueming, and whispers echoed like mosquitoes.
"How dare he speak up? Does he really think he can just rely on being a member of the Li family?"
"That's incredibly shameless. His reputation as a good-for-nothing adopted son is questionable; even if he joins the Li family, how good can it be?"
"Shh! You two have a death wish! Shut up!"
Zhang Yuqian's beautiful eyes hardened, and she tugged at Jiang Yueming's sleeve, whispering, "Are you really planning to join the Li family? Have you thought it through?"
She wasn't afraid of that person at all; instead, she was more concerned about whether Jiang Yueming could live with dignity after entering the Li family.
Never again do you sleep alone in Jiangjia Square like last time.
If he doesn't have a good life in the Li family, it would be better for him to marry into the Zhang family.
At least that way she could take care of him herself.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuqian blushed subconsciously, released Jiang Yueming's clothes, lowered her bright eyes, and felt her heart pounding like a drum.
She herself didn't know when she started to care about him so much.
Seeing Zhang Yuqian's childlike demeanor, Jiang Yueming smiled gently and said softly, "Don't worry, the immortal has a clever plan."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuqian's eyes relaxed, and she nodded slightly.
She believed in Jiang Yueming.
Li Tianyun watched the interaction between the two, his eyes darkening slightly before revealing a smile full of joy: "Jiang Yueming, how about this? You marry into my Li family, and I'll give you my daughter in marriage."
"how?"
Before the words were even finished, Jiang Yueming's head suddenly exploded, leaving her stunned.
What's going on? You're marrying off your daughter too?
Wouldn't that make me a professional son-in-law?
This is outrageous! How could I, Jiang Yueming, a dignified seven-foot-tall man, be reduced to living off a woman?!
Impossible! Absolutely impossible!
"Father-in-law Li, if your daughter is beautiful enough, it's not impossible to consider it."
Jiang Yueming raised an eyebrow, his eyes full of playfulness, and clasped his hands in a fist and smiled at Li Tianyun.
Faced with Jiang Yueming's playful voice, everyone in the hall was startled again, and their eyes showed a hint of jealousy.
Legend has it that Li Tianyun's daughter, Li Qingling, is a celestial being reincarnated, whose beauty could put even the most gorgeous flowers in the world to shame.
What's even more remarkable is that she had been instructed in martial arts by that master, so her strength is unimaginable.
Upon hearing Li Tianyun's words, Zhang Yuan's expression turned extremely cold, staring at him like a bull about to go berserk.
If Jiang Yueming really becomes the Li family's son-in-law, then what is Zhang Yuqian? A joke?
How would the entire Holy Dragon Empire view the Zhang family then?
However, Zhang Yuqian didn't take these things too seriously, because she knew that the boy in front of her was just joking again.
During the month or so we spent together at the Jiang family's hunting grounds in Nanyuan, I did see some other aspects of Jiang Yueming's personality.
For example, the bloodthirsty aura...
"But his occasional childlike playfulness is actually quite cute," Zhang Yuqian murmured to herself as she secretly glanced at Jiang Yueming.
Li Tianyun turned his gaze to Jiang Yueming, his eyes reflecting her smile: "My daughter will naturally satisfy you. Come on, come back with me."
"Wait a minute, I'm afraid things won't go as Patriarch Li wishes today."
Before Li Tianyun could finish speaking, Jiang Xuan's cold voice rang out in the hall.
"What? Does Patriarch Jiang want me to invite that esteemed person here?" Li Tianyun asked coldly.
Jiang Xuan's lips curled into a playful smile, and he chuckled, "Li Tianyun, stop pretending. You have absolutely no ability to make that lord attack us!"
At this moment, he finally understood what Jiang Yueming meant. If that person really wanted to eliminate the Zhang and Jiang families, how could they have survived until now?
If Li Tianyun could really persuade that person, the Zhang and Jiang families would have been wiped out long ago.
Thinking about it this way, Li Tianyun is nothing but a paper tiger!
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Tianyun's face turned icy with killing intent. He gritted his teeth and stared intently at Jiang Xuan, his eyes practically piercing through him.
Jiang Xuan had clearly hit the nail on the head; he indeed couldn't get that person to take action.
"So, Li Tianyun, are you leaving on your own, or should I come and ask you to leave?"
Seeing that the situation had changed, Zhang Yuan pointed to the door and said.
He didn't want to see Li Tianyun for even a second longer!
"Fine, you guys win!"
Left with no other choice, Li Tianyun had to start walking away.
"Hey, what's the rush, Patriarch Li? Just because you can't get that lord to take action doesn't mean he won't."
"Think about it, why did that official specifically choose your Li family as his support? Do you dare to take a gamble and directly wage war against both families? Who do you think that official will protect?"
Jiang Yueming looked at Li Tianyun with a smile on her face, a sly look on her lips, and said.
Instantly, Li Tianyun and the other two narrowed their eyes, their gazes all falling on Jiang Yueming as if by prior arrangement, and they almost simultaneously uttered the same word.
"Jiang Yueming, what exactly are you trying to do!"
They suddenly realized that they had been playing a trick on Jiang Yueming all along.
First, he watched the three fight, then he advised Jiang Xuan to turn the disadvantage into an advantage, and then he reminded Li Tianyun to understand the importance that person attached to the Li family, which put Jiang Xuan on the defensive once again.
In the end, the three of them were forced into a desperate situation. If they let Jiang Yueming go today, the alliance between the Zhang and Jiang families would be fruitless.
If Jiang Yueming is not released today, and the alliance is formed, the Li family will surely be wiped out if they have to face two opposing forces at the same time, given that the official's unclear attitude!
"Jiang Yueming, you are truly cunning!"
