In the end, Jin Xian's body was pierced eight times!
Each of the eight elders of the Jin Clan wielded a sword. But Jin Xian didn't die!
This was the Jin Clan's rule.
Killing a fellow disciple was bound to be pierced by a myriad of swords!
Blood gushed out ceaselessly from Jin Xian's mouth as he howled in pain, "You … you killed the Patriarch. You deserve to die a horrible death!"
Meanwhile, a sword light flashed, and Jin Xian's head flew high into the air while a mouthful of blood shot into the sky.
It was Fang Lan who attacked.
"As Jinming's widow, I'll avenge him!"
Fang Lan chopped off Jin Xian's head and spoke with tears flowing down her face.
This caused all the elders of the Jin Clan who were slightly dissatisfied and wanted to say something to be speechless.
She was a virgin, yet she was willing to avenge Jinming as Jinming's widow. Was it too much to chop off Jin Xian's head with a single strike?
It was too normal!
But this was the first time Fang Lan had killed someone with her own hands!
After she chopped off Jin Xian's head, Fang Lan's hand that held the sword trembled slightly. She thought she would cry and be afraid, but in fact, she didn't!
In Fang Lan's heart, she only felt a sense of satisfaction from having her revenge. At the same time, something seemed to have been broken in the depths of her heart, and she even heard the sound of something shattering. Fang Lan closed her eyes slightly. She was clearly aware that what was broken … was her past life.
Along with this strike, it would be completely gone from her.
But she didn't regret it.
This was a path that she chose herself.
Chu Mo stood at the side and silently looked at Fang Lan. His heart ached for her. But he knew that she had to pass through this obstacle by herself.
Once she passed through this obstacle, her future would be bright!
After that, Chu Mo brought Fang Lan back to the Lu Clan with Lu Tianyue and the others.
As for the Jin Clan, since Jin Xian was dead, a new Patriarch would naturally be chosen.
Actually, Jin Xian's roar before his death couldn't be considered to be wrong. Chu Mo had indeed always wanted to gather the forces of the entire Silken City, but his thoughts … were absolutely not as despicable as Jin Xian had said.
At the very least, Chu Mo would bring about a completely new change to Silken City. He would foster the outstanding disciples of Silken City and allow them to obtain inheritances that they didn't dare imagine in the past, and he would allow them to have the opportunity to charge out of this world and walk towards an even greater height!
However, after hearing what Jin Xian said, if Chu Mo said anything at this time, it would seem like he really had some bad intentions. Therefore, Chu Mo decided to temporarily suppress this matter.
But what surprised Chu Mo was that as soon as he returned to the Lu Family, the Jin Family, Hong Family, and dozens of other family heads came to the Lu Family to pay a visit to Lu Tianming.
Lu Tianyue looked at Chu Mo and smiled. "He's here to surrender."
"Hmm?" Chu Mo raised his eyebrows and looked at Lu Tianyue.
"Kim Hyun's words made those people nervous," said Lu Tianyue. They're afraid that you'll really leave and not care about the matters of Silken City from now onwards. "
"What about you? What do you think? "Chu Mo looked at Lu Tianyue as he asked.
Meanwhile, Lu Tianqi said from the side, "Big Brother Tianming is one of us, so how could he leave?" As she spoke, she looked at Chu Mo with eyes that carried a different expression. "Am I right? Big Brother Tianming? "
Lu Tianyue sighed in her heart, yet she smiled bitterly as she looked at Chu Mo. At the same time, she slightly anticipated Chu Mo's answer in her heart.
Because in the entire Silken City, only she was clearly aware that this person before her … didn't belong here, and if he wanted to leave, then he would utterly not have any restraints!
Chu Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave this place."
"That's great!" Lu Tianqi waved her little fist excitedly, and then she looked at her older sister with a slightly complacent expression. "See, I knew it!"
Lu Tianyue's chilly face revealed a faint smile as she nodded lightly.
After that, Chu Mo went out to meet these people that had come to pay a visit. Amongst them, the members of the Jin Clan had the most embarrassed expressions. They wanted to look for Chu Mo alone to explain the matter of them siding with the Spirit Echo Sect, yet they didn't have the chance.
Thus, even though the Jin Clan was one of the three great clans of Silken City, the representative sent by the Jin Clan could only give the opportunity to the members of the small and medium clans. He couldn't help but resent the already dead Jin Xian even more in his heart. What an idiot! Before the truth of the matter had been completely revealed, he'd made a choice beforehand and revealed his trump card.
This sort of gambler mentality … is really not suitable to become a Patriarch of a clan!
Chu Mo wasn't especially enthusiastic towards the members of the Jin Clan because the only person in the Jin Clan that was worthy of him doing this was already gone. Presently, besides Jin Tiegang, the remaining members of the Jin Clan were only a group of grass that went wherever the wind blew in the wind in the eyes of Chu Mo. He wouldn't look down upon them, yet he wasn't interested in taking another glance.
The elder that represented the Jin Clan could only sit there awkwardly and watch helplessly as the Patriarchs of the small and medium clans flattered and tried to get close to Lu Tianming. He couldn't help but curse in his heart with slight helplessness. A group of things that have no integrity!
After a round of flattery from the Patriarchs of these clans, an elder of the Hong Clan finally spoke of the reason for their arrival.
"Young Master Lu, I hope you don't take what Jin Xian said earlier to heart. All of us understand that if it wasn't for Young Master Lu, Silken City would have already become an unknown state. No matter if it's the three great clans or the other small and medium clans, all of them would probably cease to exist long ago. Even if they grovel and submit to the Spirit Echo Sect, they're only servants and lackeys of the Spirit Echo Sect. " The elder of the Hong Clan wasn't afraid of the Jin Clan, and his gaze swept the elder of the Jin Clan that sat there with a flushed face as he spoke.
Even though the elder of the Jin Clan frowned, yet he didn't refute. Because what the elder said was the truth. He was utterly unable to refute it.
As the elder of the Hong Clan spoke, he cupped his fists to Chu Mo and said, "Young Master Lu is righteous and possesses shocking strength. You forcefully withstood the pressure of the Spirit Echo Sect and were still able to return safely, it's a cause for celebration. Presently, Young Master Lu is the guardian of our entire Silken City! Because of this, this lowly old man represents all the clans that have come here today to boldly invite Young Master Lu to assume the position of City Governor of Silken City. "
"Yes, we hope that Young Master Lu will be able to stay in Silken City from today onwards and become our City Governor! We're willing to take out 10% of our clan's income every year to fill the City Governor's warehouse. We hope that Young Master Lu doesn't refuse! "
"We've had enough of these days of living in fear! Invite Young Master Lu to assume the position of City Governor! "
"Invite Young Master Lu to assume the position of City Governor!"
Any one of these few tens of people wasn't a nobody in Silken City, and even the Patriarch of the smallest clan was an overlord of an area!
Presently, all of these people had gathered here to invite Chu Mo to assume the position of City Governor of Silken City. Such a scene was probably unprecedented in the history of the Radiant Dimension!
Meanwhile, the elder of the Jin Clan knew that if he still didn't make a stand, then the days of the Jin Clan in the future would probably really be difficult!
Before he came here, the other elders had already given him full authority to do as he pleased.
So this elder of the Jin Clan coughed lightly and was just about to speak.
The elder of the Hong Clan laughed lightly and looked at him as he said, "I heard that your Jin Clan has sided with the Spirit Echo Sect?"
