"Indeed, there’s definitely sothing suspicious about this person, and the young master’s death might be related to him!"
"Kill him!"
The crowd ca to their senses, all eyeing Li An, murder boiling in their gaze.
Li An had no teleportation array, with more than a dozen True Core and Fake Pill experts in front of him, several layers of Rank Three and Four arrays blocking his way, and a Nascent Soul fiend lurking with ill intentions in the shadows...
He couldn’t leave.
But, Li An remained calm, rely patting the Divine Bird’s back.
The cyan-colored Divine Bird suddenly spread its wings, shielding Li An behind it, its fiery red beak opening wide, spewing a jet of cyan fla as a warning to the crowd!
"Divine Bird, you..."
"You belong to the Jiang Clan, how can you assist an outside thief?!"
"Are you mad..."
The nurous elders of the Jiang Clan all had slight changes in their expressions, montarily not daring to advance, and the restless great formations halted.
"Jiang Ruoxu’s death has nothing to do with !"
Li An shouted loudly, "He was killed by soone else, the Taiyi Following Array lost its master, and instead saved , allowing to pass the Alchemy Dao barrier with the Divine Bird, and sohow beco the master of the Divine Bird..."
"I have worked hard for the Jiang Clan, yet you intend to kill here. If not for heaven’s eye, I, Wu Qin, would have died on the spot!"
"If you wish to fight, I, Wu Qin, along with the Divine Bird, will fight to the death. But before I die, I will drag one or two True Cores with !"
His words were grim and utterly resolute, his True Core aura released without concealnt!
Hearing this, the crowd was both shocked and furious.
"What... Our Jiang Clan’s Divine Bird actually fell into his hands?!"
"The Golden Core Divine Bird beca his wedding gown, this... unforgivable, unforgivable, kill him!"
"The young master is dead, the Divine Bird has changed hands, damn... damn it!"
The entire Jiang family was enraged to the core.
The young master’s death, although severe, was not a devastating blow to a great family like the Jiang Clan. At worst, they would choose another, as the Jiang Clan had plenty of talent, and with resources, they could groom a competent Patriarch.
But the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow held an incomparable status in the Jiang Clan, being the only Rank Four Spirit Beast they controlled.
If anything happened to this Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow, the Jiang Clan’s Cyan Fla Divine Sparrows would be extinct; then, although the Beast Taming Jiang Clan wouldn’t be annihilated, they would fall far from grace.
This was intolerable.
Moreover, who was Wu Qin? To the Jiang Clan, just an ant, and yet an ant dared to covet the Divine Bird...
"I want you dead!"
"You must die without a doubt!"
The crowd was excited!
Li An was also nervous, but he maintained his calm, taking out dozens of Rank Three Runes, holding them in his hands!
Ready for battle.
The Spiritual Essence Peak’s Rank Three array slowly activated, about to annihilate Li An.
"Stop——"
But just then, an elder’s voice suddenly erged.
In an instant, the great formation of the Spiritual Essence Peak ca to an abrupt halt, a mysterious aura and pressure swept across the entire Spiritual Essence Peak, making the Jiang family’s nurous True Core and Fake Pill elders face a major change.
A light flashed from a mountain peak dozens of miles away, and in the blink of an eye, an elder appeared on the Spiritual Essence Peak.
He wore a gray robe, his hair and beard extrely long, looking as if he hadn’t erged from seclusion for countless years.
On his shoulder stood a blue-black bird, about the size of a hawk, with an extraordinarily sharp gaze, making one dare not et its eyes.
"Ancestor Qingcang!"
"We pay respects to Ancestor Qingcang!"
Everyone around had a great change of expression and hurriedly paid respects.
Li An too felt a chill in his heart, the Jiang Clan’s ancestor, Jiang Qingcang.
This person was the strongest among the Jiang family’s three Nascent Soul ancestors, wielding the Rank Four Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow.
His personal appearance showed the importance of this matter.
Li An also slightly bowed, showing respect to the Nascent Soul Great Cultivator, but more importantly, it was a statent.
Indicating he was not determined for a desperate fight, there was still room for compromise.
"Report to the ancestor, this person plotted maliciously, aiming for our Jiang Clan’s Divine Bird, deserving execution..."
Although Jiang Rilan was steeped in the grief of Jiang Ruoxu’s death, he forced himself to report.
"Deserving execution?"
Jiang Qingcang spoke coldly, "Don’t let hatred blind your eyes."
"As the patriarch, you should think for the greater good of the family——"
These words were like thunder, suddenly awakening Jiang Rilan with a start. He was by no ans ordinary, with just a few words, he suddenly saw the light and repeatedly nodded, "The ancestor’s lesson is right, Rilan was muddled——"
After saying this, he ordered imdiately: "Disband the great formation!"
The few cultivators controlling the killing array on Spiritual Essence Peak obeyed and cald the formation.
Li An also let out a long breath.
This ti, he still gambled correctly.
...
"How about it? Can you accept these conditions?"
Much later.
In the Jiang Clan’s main hall, Jiang Qingcang sat at the head, looking at Li An with composure.
Even the patriarch Jiang Rilan could only accompany him, silent throughout, feeling quite complicated inside.
The conditions the ancestor granted to Wu Qin...
Could be said to be extrely generous!
Not killing Wu Qin was one thing.
Making an exception for him to beco an external Guardian Elder of the Jiang Clan, and with all the sa treatnt as the Jiang Clan’s True Core Elders.
Including: Allowing Li An to have his own industry within the Jiang Clan, and if Li An could marry a daughter of the Jiang Clan, his descendants could compete for the Jiang Clan’s core seed, potentially becoming the patriarch...
A complete privilege!
Li An lightly frowned, pondering, "What must Wu do in return?"
"With the sa treatnt as our Jiang Clan elders, naturally cos the sa responsibilities, to protect the Jiang Clan, sharing fortunes and woes."
Jiang Qingcang responded calmly, "Additionally, while the Cyan Fla Divine Sparrow belongs to you, it also belongs to our Jiang Clan, and any offspring the Divine Bird breeds will also belong to the Jiang family!"
