Chapter 291: Wedding (4)

After Jiang Zhi Shu's words rang through the wedding hall, all that he was met with was complete silence.

Neither of the two remaining elders of the Jiang Family moved forward, rather they even took a step back.

Jiang Mu clearly knew what kind of weapon Jiang Zhi Shu was holding and to deal with it, the only thing he could possibly think of was inviting the ancestor out and that was the one thing the Jiang Family could never do. The ancestor was the crux of the Jiang Family and if something were to ever happen to him, the entire Jiang Family would collapse.

Unless the Jiang Family was certain to die, the ancestor would never be invited out.

Jiang Mu and the second elder looked at each other before Jiang Mu came forward to say, "Xiao Shu, you've done more than enough today, let's not make this any bigger and have a talk between us."

Finally the Jiang Family was willing to put down their pride and negotiate.

Of course, the only reason for this was because it was Jiang Zhi Shu and they hadn't lost anything substantial. All they had lost was a bit of face from having three of their elders defeated, but none of these elders had lost their lives, so that meant that it could all be ignored.

Moreover, what Jiang Mu wanted to do was recruit Jiang Zhi Shu back into the Jiang Family.

He didn't know where Jiang Zhi Shu had found this backer that had given him this powerful weapon, but if Jiang Zhi Shu was pulled into the Jiang Family, wouldn't that mean that that backer would come to the Jiang Family?

At that time, what couldn't the Jiang Family do on this Blue Star Planet with two upper realm factions behind them?

Not to mention that they had the perfect bait to pull Jiang Zhi Shu back into the Jiang Family.

Why did Jiang Zhi Shu leave in the first place?

Wasn't it just for that girl?

If they were to accept her and give her back to him, wouldn't this all go away?

But before Jiang Zhi Shu could even say a thing, Jiang Qi Tai spoke first, "First elder, what do you think you're doing?"

Jiang Mu knit his brows when he heard this since he could tell from Jiang Qi Tai's tone what he planned on doing.

Jiang Mu turned to Jiang Qi Tai and said, "Nephew, you should know that the most important thing is the good of the Jiang Family?"

Jiang Qi Tai looked at Jiang Mu for a second before breaking out in laughter, "Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!"

Everyone in the hall looked at Jiang Qi Tai with strange gazes. To them, it seemed like he had gone crazy by the situation he had been forced into.

Naturally they knew about the love triangle between the two brothers and now the older brother had come back with such power that even the Jiang Family couldn't ignore, it was clear that the Jiang Family would side with the older brother. Of course, that meant he also got the girl…

That was just how this world worked, the strong took what they wanted and anything could change at any moment.

Jiang Mu came forward and raised his hand to try comforting Jiang Qi Tai, as he said, "Nephew, you should know…"

Jiang Qi Tai suddenly revealed a fierce look and slapped Jiang Mu's hand away as he said, "What do you know? You know nothing!"

Then he turned to Jiang Zhi Shu and then, like changing into a different person, he revealed a calm look and gave a sigh, "I guess I have to do everything myself."

Without giving Jiang Zhi Shu even a chance to respond, he immediately jumped out, pulling out a dagger that was completely enshrouded in darkness from his Spatial Ring. This dagger didn't look all that special, but the aura around it made everyone present immediately look at it.

This wasn't just a special aura like the one around the pure white spear that Jiang Zhi Shu had, there was also a sinister feeling that was in this aura that couldn't help make a chill run down a person's back.

The dagger didn't seem like it was moving, but it did move as it came down to meet the spear tip that Jiang Zhi Shu quickly swept up in response to Jiang Qi Tai's attack.

The two weapons clashed and the force between them balanced for a bit before both sides were pushed back an equal distance.

Everyone watching this was surprised, but there were many different people with different reactions to this.

For those that didn't know anything, they were just shocked by the shockwave that came from that clash. Just that shockwave alone was enough to tell them just how powerful that clash was, but they had no idea what realm these two were in.

As for those that did know what was going on, they naturally knew what this equal clash meant.

Even if Jiang Zhi Shu had been caught off guard, not allowing him to use his full power, this dagger had been able to face the pure white spear head on without losing even the slightest bit.

When the elders had faced Jiang Zhi Shu, they had been very careful not to take a direct hit from that spear out of fear that their artifacts would be destroyed by that spear. After all, that spear had already surpassed the peak of this lower realm, it could easily break their artifacts.

All this was enough to prove that while this dagger was slightly inferior to the pure white spear, it wasn't that much weaker. This dagger had probably also surpassed the peak of this lower realm.

Jiang Mu narrowed his eyes and said, "Nephew, where did you get that dagger?"

But Jiang Qi Tai completely ignored him as the dark energy of the dagger slowly surrounded him, coating him in its power.

As it surrounded him, there was a blood red glow that slowly appeared in his eyes. It crept across his iris and across his pupil covering it with an eerie blood red glow.

Jiang Qi Tai himself had to look down at his hands first to look over his own power before giving a laugh, "Ha, ha, ha!"

Then he immediately stopped laughing and said to Jiang Zhi Shu with an ice cold look, "Die!"

Jiang Zhi Shu was about to raise the spear in his hand to meet Jiang Qi Tai's attack again, but before he could, there was a white flash of lightning that suddenly flew past him. The bolt of lightning continued forward until it hit Jiang Qi Tai's dagger, stopping him in his tracks and forcing him back a few steps.

Lin Fan was already standing as he walked over to Jiang Zhi Shu, reaching his hand out.

Jiang Zhi Shu naturally knew what was happening, so he immediately handed over the pure white spear.

Lin Fan took the spear and it immediately changed forms, going from the form of a spear to the form of a sword.

Jiang Mu looked at Lin Fan with a bewildered look.

He could tell from the aura of the bolt of lightning that it was only lightning law that was in the medium Platinum Realm, but based on the force that it had behind it, he knew that even he might not have been able to take this bolt of lightning head on.

Then there was the fact that Jiang Zhi Shu had willingly handed over the Embryo Soul Realm Artifact…

Just who was this man?

It was too bad that none of them had noticed the slight golden and green glow that had been surrounding this bolt of lightning.

Yes, the law of lightning was in the mid Platinum Realm, but there wasn't just a single law that made up that bolt of lightning. That bolt of lightning had also been strengthened and sped up by the laws of power and wind respectively.

Jiang Qi Tai clutched his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood before looking at Lin Fan with a wary look as he asked the question in Jiang Mu's heart, "Who are you?"

Lin Fan ignored him as he muttered to himself, "It's like light and dark laws, but it's different. That red glow must be the key, but what could it mean?"

Jiang Qi Tai's face sunk when he heard this. He knew that he was being looked down on, but he still didn't dare make a rash move since he couldn't see through this person.

Lin Fan then suddenly revealed a look of understanding as he said, "Murder, it's the law of murder. Isn't that right?"

Jiang Qi Tai didn't react as he casually said, "That's right."

Lin Fan nodded as he said, "I get it now, it's a single law, but there is more than one side to murder. The murder of villains is justice while the murder of the innocent is evil. They are two sides of the same coin just like light and darkness, that is how you can draw out the powers that should belong to just light and dark laws respectively."

Jiang Qi Tai asked once again, "Who are you?"

This time, Lin Fan finally answered, but it wasn't the answer that Jiang Qi Tai wanted. He said while shaking his head, "Who I am is not important, it's more important to know who you are. Which part of his soul are you?"

Jiang Qi Tai revealed a terrifying look when he heard this, it was like his tail had been stepped on.

Lin Fan then revealed a smile as he said, "There's no need to ask. The fact that you've taken over this boy and are trying to take over the Jiang Family, it's clear that you're his ambition, isn't that right?"
