A moment later, the head of the Wang family came out in a panic with a group of trusted confidants to deal with the situation.
However, upon reaching the courtyard, he was horrified to see Tian Jinzhong walking as usual. A middle-aged man beside him looked as if he had seen a ghost, his face suddenly changing drastically.
Chapter 226 A river of blood
The atmosphere was heavy, like an impending storm. A terrifying rage filled every corner of the courtyard, and some of the Wang family experts who knew the situation were already filled with unease.
Despite having his hands and feet severed and his eyes blinded, the young Taoist priest was not killed by the torture. After only ten days, he was back to his energetic self. Who could believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?
The Wang family patriarch's mood plummeted. Apart from the Celestial Master, all those white-robed figures were disciples of the Sanyi Sect. Among them, the most unique and ethereal was the frosty-haired youth, who was none other than the current pinnacle of extraordinary individuals—Chen Qing Xuan Zun.
Chenqing is his Taoist name.
Mysterious Venerable, the Xuanmen must regard me as the supreme one.
This is the praise that well-meaning people in the martial arts world have given to this Jiang family leader who dominated the era in the past two years.
The head of the Wang family stood frozen in place, his mind reeling as if struck by lightning. It was all over, everything was over. Especially when he noticed Tian Jinzhong, who had come seeking revenge, a deep sense of regret washed over him.
A single wrong thought led to a terrible disaster!
Enemies meeting are bound to be furious. Before Tian Jinzhong could even identify the murderer, Zhang Jingqing was already enraged and shouted:
"Wang Zhiheng, your clansmen severely injured my disciple and then tried to shift the blame to the other side, attempting to provoke a deadly battle between the Celestial Master's Mansion and the Quanxing Sect. What exactly do you mean by this? Do you think that because I am old, I should suffer such humiliation from your Wang family?!"
"Boom!"
Accompanied by furious words, the once clear sky suddenly darkened, and dense thunderbolts converged from all directions, raging over the Wang family mansion as if a catastrophe was imminent.
Seeing that his scheme had been exposed, the head of the Wang family suppressed his fear and vehemently denied it.
"Celestial Master, without any evidence, you mustn't be framing us!"
Seeing his denial, Tian Jinzhong stepped forward and pointed at him: "Wang Zhiheng! You've gone too far! Do you dare say you don't know anything about all this?"
"The person who cut off my fingers one by one was the thief next to you. He even threatened to drain all my blood!"
"Little Taoist priest, which one of yours is it...?"
The man opened his mouth to refuse, but Zhang Zhiwei, who was in the rage, was too lazy to waste words with him. His afterimage suddenly disappeared, and he rushed forward. Golden light flashed and transformed into a rope, binding the man and throwing him high into the air.
"Boom!!!"
Zhang Zhiwei's expression was icy. Suddenly, a tremendous force erupted from his wrist, dragging the golden rope and slamming it violently into the ground. The granite surface shattered into a spiderweb pattern, and the deafening impact drowned out the sound of bones shattering.
When the smoke cleared, the man was lying in the pit, barely alive. His entire spine was broken, and multiple arteries were ruptured, with blood gushing out.
His eyes bulged out, almost falling out of their sockets, and on the verge of death, he looked to the head of the family for help.
"Who else?"
Zhang Jingqing tacitly approved of his disciple's behavior, but even so, it was far from enough. He continued to put pressure on Wang Zhiheng:
"Hand over those thieves immediately! If even one is missing, this is not over!"
"Celestial Master, are you determined to be so arrogant! You've trespassed into my clan and injured my people; you've gone too far!"
Wang Zhiheng retorted, his face flushed. Now that things had come to this, how could he back down? He could only go all the way and gamble that the other side couldn't produce any evidence.
"To say that my people hurt you is ridiculous. We have no enmity with them, so why would we hurt them!"
Unfortunately, his trick of hurting people and requiring the victims to prove their innocence didn't work on Zhang Jingqing.
"Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. Since your Wang family has done it, what is there to be afraid of admitting?"
“My Celestial Master’s Mansion is not so innocent as to implicate others, but today, every single one of them, all those who have harmed my disciples and those who plotted behind the scenes, will not escape.”
Zhang Jingqing's attitude was tough. Even though the other party was a family with a thousand-year history, he was not intimidated at all and was not afraid of tearing off the mask.
Before the Wang family could even respond, Zhang Zhiwei asked menacingly:
"Jinzhong? Tell your senior brother, are there any beasts here that have harmed you?"
"Have."
"It was these bastards who severed my Achilles tendon back then."
Tian Jinzhong raised his right hand again, pointing to three elite members of the Wang family who were hiding in the crowd.
Because of the dense crowd, Zhang Zhiwei found it difficult to take action, and there were even some children and women among them.
"How dare you! You dare!"
Seeing that the unassuming Taoist priest had something on his mind, a bloated, richly dressed elder of the clan shouted in a shrill voice, "My Wang family is not a place for you poor, uncultured country bumpkins to run wild."
"Someone is coming!!"
After he finished speaking, dozens of the guards pulled out their guns and aimed them at the troublemakers present.
"Boom!!!"
"Boom!!!"
However, Zhang Jingqing ignored this and immediately activated her thunder magic. Three bolts of lightning, as thin as ropes, instantly struck down from the void, piercing through the roof, avoiding the innocent old and young, and accurately hitting the three perpetrators.
In an instant, this terrifying scene terrified the Wang family members, who fled in panic.
"kill!!"
"Open fire! Kill all these bastards!!"
The obese clan elder, dressed in luxurious clothes, roared loudly, his eyes bloodshot. Among the bandits who were killed was his grandson.
"Bang Bang Bang!!!"
In an instant, the armed guards pulled their triggers, and a dense barrage of fire roared in. Zhang Zhiwei and Zhang Jingqing, both protected by golden light, stood in front of them, ready to engage in a fierce battle.
"Why bother?"
Watching the Wang family put up a stubborn resistance, Jiang Mo, who was being indiscriminately shot at, casually raised his hand and activated the Tianheng Gu. The terrifying repulsive force instantly permeated the surroundings, and the bullets that were shooting out strangely stopped in mid-air, unable to advance even an inch further.
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
"Pfft!"
Under the repulsive force, the bullets ricocheted back at an even faster speed, piercing through heads one after another. The guards who died were stunned, not even realizing what was happening, their bodies falling one after another like straws.
In less than half a breath, the entire scene spiraled out of control and chaos, with corpses scattered everywhere.
This overwhelming difference in strength left Wang Zhiheng, the obese clan elder, and others feeling hopeless.
"The...the...the...the...the...Sect Leader Jiang, are you going to side with them too?!" someone exclaimed in shock, utterly devastated and unable to comprehend it.
"I stand on the side of reason."
"The war is not over yet, and your Wang family is already stabbing your allies in the back. Isn't that going too far?"
Jiang Mo sized up the several extraordinary individuals from the Wang family and declared:
"Today I will bear witness to hand over the murderer, so that we can stop wasting each other's time."
“Nonsense! There is no murderer in my clan!” A young man mustered his courage and stepped forward to confront him.
However, what greeted him was a glance from Jiang Mo. His brain felt as if it were being torn apart, and he twisted on the ground, howling in agony. In just a few breaths, he was lifeless.
"You...you!!" Several high-ranking members of the Wang family dared not speak their anger, forcibly suppressing their resentment.
"Fine, you bunch of cowards. Since you're unwilling to hand over the man, then come over here."
A faint smile played on Jiang Mo's lips as he reached out his right hand and gently pulled at the void in front of him. An invisible force of gravity covered the entire Wang family mansion and fell upon every member of the Wang family.
In an instant, nearly a hundred people were forcibly dragged to the scene from various corners, corridors, and side rooms.
"......"
Wang Zhiheng was in dire straits. Beads of sweat slid down his cheeks, and his breathing became rapid. First, there was the Quanxing Sect, then the Celestial Master's Mansion. After suffering two calamities, the power and status of his family in the martial arts world would probably plummet.
What's most infuriating is that even the Trinity Sect wanted to join in the fun, and he was powerless to resist. His former composure vanished in an instant.
Looking at the densely packed crowd, Zhang Jingqing urged in a booming voice:
"Jinzhong, what are you waiting for? I'll back you up! Sect Leader Jiang is also helping you, so hurry up and find those scoundrels!"
"Yes, disciple will go immediately!"
Tian Jinzhong took a deep breath, his gaze sweeping over the crowd in front of him. Amidst the rising and falling cries of terror, people moved about and picked out the seven people who had harmed him.
"No...I didn't...it wasn't me!"
"let me go!!"
"Enough with the nonsense." Zhang Zhiwei's palm crackled with lightning, blasting them one by one until their lives were cut off and their corpses were charred black.
"Junior brother, is there any more?"
"There are a few that aren't here..."
Tian Jinzhong guessed that those guys must have gone out and might not be back for a while. Just as he was about to give up, Zhang Zhiwei came over carrying a skinny old man.
“Call back the scourge of your clan. I will not rest until I have wiped them all out.”
"Alas!! Spare this old man, I truly knew nothing!!!"
"Still messing with us? You were the one who wrote the divine painting back then."
Tian Jinzhong exposed the old ghost's lies as he pleaded desperately, saying that even if the man turned to ashes, he would still recognize him.
"Ah? I...I didn't..." The old man trembled all over, his hands and feet were ice cold.
"If you don't talk, I have plenty of ways to deal with you." Zhang Zhiwei's eyes narrowed, his killing intent sharp.
The old man, terrified and completely at a loss, immediately went weak in the knees. He shakily took out a piece of black paper and began to write with his inner energy.
instantly.
The perpetrators, who had been indulging in revelry in the city, rushed back and, smelling the pervasive stench of blood, sensed something was wrong.
"It's them!" Tian Jinzhong said, his eyes wide with fury.
"Wha...what?!"
"Oh!"
A sudden explosion of air rang out, giving the group no chance to react. Zhang Zhiwei unleashed a golden beam of light like a whip, sweeping across the sky and snapping their throats.
"Gurgle, gurgle."
Several hideous heads rolled to the ground, and the corpses lay stiffly on the ground.
"Aaaaaah!! Give me back my brother's life!!"
A young man from the Wang family, upon witnessing his elder brother being brutally murdered on the spot, lost control of his emotions, pulled out the pistol hanging from his waist, and fired several shots at Tian Jinzhong.
Soon, the scene unfolding before his eyes caused the young man's anger to recede like a tide, replaced by fear.
"clang!!"
"clang!!"
The bullets crashed into the golden light, shattering into pieces but unable to break through. Zhang Zhiwei was prepared and would not allow anyone to harm his junior brother in front of him.
Even against a young man barely twenty, Zhang Zhiwei showed no mercy. With a flick of his left finger, a sharp light transformed into sparks, moving with the speed of thunder, piercing the opponent's brow and giving him a swift and painless end.
At this point, the entire audience fell silent, and all those who had tormented Tian Jinzhong were slaughtered.
Thunder roared overhead, dimming the light in the Wang family mansion. The old men remained silent for a long time, their hearts filled with an unprecedented twisted hatred.
Finally, after much deliberation, Tian Jinzhong once again turned his attention to the Wang family patriarch, the wealthy-looking clan elder, and the clan elder who delivered the message.
He wanted them dead. Since things couldn't be resolved today, he might as well make a complete mess of it and eliminate all these potential threats.
“Master, these three are the masterminds, and those others were just pawns.”
Chapter 227 Killing Wang Ai's Father
Like a stone thrown into a still pond, this bombshell news sent shockwaves through the three men, leaving them pale with fright.
The Wang family patriarch was in a state of utter confusion, his eyes darting around, unable to meet Zhang Jingqing's oppressive gaze. Seeking a glimmer of hope, he made excuses:
"Young man, how dare you make false accusations? What does it have to do with us if the people below act recklessly?"
"Those who harmed you have been exterminated by the Celestial Master, isn't that enough?"
