The patriarch's face was gloomy. He had clearly heard the conversation outside and knew how many people were in the pill store. More than a thousand people had been killed. Ever since the Yu family took control of Fengli City, they had been the sole hegemon here. No one had ever dared to challenge them. It was ridiculous to kill everyone in the pill store.
However, judging from the Third Steward's panicked expression and tone, he could tell that the opponent this time was very powerful. At least, it wasn't someone that Yu Family could deal with. Even the patriarch didn't have the slightest confidence. One should know that even an intermediate Immortal Emperor like him wouldn't be able to cut off one of the Chief Steward's arms so easily. He knew the Chief Steward's strength very well.
"Patriarch."
The four of them saluted the moment they saw the patriarch. The atmosphere became somewhat heavy. As Immortal Emperors, they weren't fools. They all had very high IQ. They knew very well what kind of powerful existence Yu Family had offended this time. It was true that Yu Family had a powerful backer, but they were afraid that the backer was about the same level as Jiang Chen. If a truly powerful expert came to annihilate Yu Family, the backer might not even be willing to show up. At this critical moment, Yu Family still had to stand at the forefront.
Moreover, they knew very well that the powerful backer was only using the Yu Family as a tool for profit. The Yu Family was only useful to him. If the Yu Family was useless, with his identity and status, he probably wouldn't even have the time to care about the Yu Family.
Yu Family still had to rely on themselves when it came to the critical moment of life and death.
"Tell me, what's going on? How did the pill store offend such a powerful expert? "
The patriarch looked at the Third Steward with cold eyes. He was feeling very uneasy. From the Third Steward's description, he could tell that Jiang Chen was just a young man. In the entire Fengchi Immortal Domain, a young man with such strength must have a powerful background. Such a person wasn't someone that Yu Family could afford to offend.
"Patriarch, this is what happened. Some time ago, one of the pill slaves that the pill store secretly captured turned out to be Jiang Chen's father. Today, Jiang Chen came and happened to see the Fifth Steward bringing a newly concocted pill to Jiang Chen's father. Jiang Chen was infuriated and killed everyone in the pill store. Now, the Second Steward is dead, the Chief Steward and the Fifth Steward have lost their arms, and the Fourth Steward are all kneeling on the square."
The Third Steward didn't dare to hide anything and told him everything that had happened in the pill store. At this point, if he continued to hide the truth, it was very likely that he would bring disaster to the Yu family. He couldn't afford to bear this responsibility.
"What?"
After listening to the Third Steward's words, the Yu Family's Patriarch and the other three Elders felt dizzy and had difficulty breathing. They never thought that the Yu Family would use such a hateful method to offend a peerless powerhouse. What was the difference between this and courting death? Using the father of a peerless powerhouse as a pill test subject, could this be any more damned suicidal?
Yu Family is finished!
This was the first thought that crossed the patriarch and the three elders' mind. Insulting the father of a peerless expert was equivalent to bringing the end of Yu Family.
"Damn it, I asked you to be in charge of the pill store. Why did you create such a mess? Are you all useless? Shouldn't you have investigated the background of a pill slave beforehand? "
The patriarch of Yu Family was furious. He had the urge to kill someone. Just because of such a small matter, Yu Family was brought to destruction. Could the people of the pill store still do anything?
"Patriarch, we really don't know either. All along, the pill slaves we've captured have all been low-class people. That old guy didn't say that he had such a powerful son. We've tried to test the pills many times. He would rather be injured than say that his son is his backer. Who would have thought that his son would be so powerful?"
The Third Steward burst into tears. All along, there had never been a single mistake with the test subjects. Every single one of them had been investigated in advance. In his opinion, if Jiang Zhenhai had such a powerful backer, he should have told them about it. However, Jiang Zhenhai didn't say anything. If he did, the Yu family wouldn't dare to touch him no matter whether it was true or not. After all, it was better to avoid trouble. If one less test subject was missing, the Yu family could still catch others, but if they met a tough opponent, it wouldn't benefit the Yu family at all.
In fact, Jiang Zhenhai didn't even know that his son had become so powerful. He didn't even know where Jiang Chen was. In his heart, Yu Family was too powerful. Perhaps Jiang Chen wouldn't be able to deal with them. He was worried that his son would be dragged into this mess if he revealed the truth.
"Patriarch, what should we do now?"
The second elder asked. He had already realized the seriousness of the situation.
"What should we do? How the hell do I know what to do? I don't know what that Jiang Chen wants. "
The patriarch of Yu Family looked gloomy.
"Jiang Chen said that he wants all the higher-ups of Yu Family who are above the Immortal King realm to kneel and apologize to his father."
The third steward said.
"What? Kneel and apologize? Are you kidding me? Our Yu Family is a big family in Fengli City. How can we kneel to someone? That's a humiliation to our family. We can't do that. "
The second elder was furious.
"That's right. This Jiang Chen really thinks that he's a lawless God. He wants all the higher-ups of Yu Family to kneel just because of his words. What a joke."
The Third Elder's face was also filled with anger.
"Jiang Chen has said that if we don't go, he will personally kill everyone in Yu Family. Not even a chicken or dog will be spared."
The third steward's eyes were red, and his words were filled with fear.
"Patriarch, let's go find Young Master Shen. I believe that Young Master Shen will be able to deal with that Jiang Chen."
The fourth elder said.
"That's right. If Young Master Shen appears, he will definitely be able to kill Jiang Chen and avenge those who died in the pill store."
The second elder also said.
"Humph! Don't you know what kind of person Young Master Shen is? He only cares about profits. Even if he's willing to come, I'm afraid that the Yu Family will be wiped out by Jiang Chen by the time he arrives in Fengli City. "
The patriarch of Yu Family snorted coldly. As the patriarch, he was more prudent in his actions.
"Then what should we do now?"
The third elder frowned. The Yu Family had been living comfortably in Fengli City for a long time. They never thought that they would face such a crisis one day.
"Let's protect Yu Family first. Immediately summon all the higher-ups of Yu Family who are above the Immortal King realm to the pill store. I will immediately send the news here to Young Master Shen through the messenger spirit talisman. I hope Young Master Shen can come in time."
