The Fang Clan was located in the west of the city.
In other words, all the wealthy families in Maplewood City were gathered in the west district.
Among them, the Zhang Clan was located in the east, close to the City Lord's mansion. The Wang Clan was located in the north, close to the armory. The Fang Clan was located in the south, closest to the Three Fragrant Brothel, Datong Casino, and other money-squandering establishments.
The other clans were scattered in between the three clans, serving as a buffer.
From Jiang Wang's current location to the Fang Clan, it was naturally closest to the City Lord's mansion. However, the bald man obviously wouldn't agree to this route, and Jiang Wang wouldn't even mention it.
He suggested that the two of them go through the south gate, through the commoner's area, to Datong Casino, and then through the Three Fragrant Brothel, directly to the Fang Clan.
This route took a long detour, but it was undoubtedly very safe for the bald man.
The journey was very smooth. When they encountered patrolling city guards, Jiang Wang even took the initiative to cover for the bald man.
Now, they finally arrived at the Fang Clan.
At this time, the sky was gradually darkening.
… …
Pegasus Alley, Jiang Clan.
Ling He suddenly stood up. "We can't wait any longer!"
They all knew very well that on such an important occasion as Jiang An 'an's birthday, Jiang Wang couldn't possibly not appear.
At first, they thought that Jiang Wang had gone to prepare some other surprise, but it was almost night. No matter how prepared the surprise, it couldn't be missed. Something must have happened to Jiang Wang.
Zhao Rucheng stopped Ling He. "Boss, you stay here with An 'an. I have many people at home. I'll go take a look."
The Zhao Clan was rich, so they naturally had many people. If they really went out to find someone, they would be more useful than Ling He. And An 'an definitely needed someone to accompany her. Otherwise, even if Jiang Wang was found, if something happened to An' an, Jiang Wang wouldn't forgive them.
Ling He naturally knew this, so he could only acquiesce.
The aroma of delicious food had been dense for a long time. An 'an was very hungry, but she didn't have an appetite.
"Where did Big Brother go?" she asked.
Zhao Rucheng winked at Ling He, then said, "He should be going to Phoenix Creek Town to buy some candies for you. Didn't you always say that you wanted to eat some candies from Phoenix Creek Town?"
"Grandpa Zhang's house!" Jiang Anan added crisply.
"Yes!" Zhao Rucheng said, "But it's getting dark. I'm afraid your brother can't see the road clearly. I'll fetch him with a lantern. "
…
The so-called "Fang clan's land" did not have a clear boundary, nor were there any walls or fences that separated the inside from the outside. It was just a large area that had been agreed upon by the Fang Clan for generations, and had gradually become the clan's territory.
"We'd better sneak in and not alert the others," Jiang Wang suggested. "Otherwise, if they ask about you, I won't be able to explain."
There was no reason to bring outsiders to a friend's house. Jiang Wang's suggestion was very reasonable.
"Where is the small courtyard you mentioned?"
Jiang Wang pointed in a direction with great familiarity.
But in his heart, he was pondering.
His biggest disadvantage was that he had yet to lay his foundation, while this baldy was a sixth-stage Soaring Dragon Realm expert. The gap between their realms was like a chasm.
But his biggest advantage was also that he had yet to lay his foundation. He had yet to lay his foundation, but by relying on the Transcendent Sword Manual and the Military School's Body-Tempering Technique, he was able to surpass the strength of an ordinary Wandering Realm cultivator. This was something that the baldy could not foresee in advance, and it was definitely beyond his expectations.
Jiang Wang had been pleasantly surprised once. He had been given an unexpected opportunity.
There was and there was only one time.
Along the way, the baldy had maintained his posture of holding Jiang Wang's shoulder. At this moment, he only gave him a light tug. The two of them turned into shadows and entered the shadow of a passerby in front of them.
After following this person for a while, the baldy finally pulled Jiang Wang out. "And then? Where do we go? "
Jiang Wang did not conceal his surprise at this secret technique. After looking at the road, he pointed in another direction.
The baldy laughed softly. "This Shadow Concealment Technique is not difficult to learn. As long as you follow my instructions, I can teach you."
Then, he pulled Jiang Wang into the shadows.
After a few more times, the sky was completely covered by the darkness of night. The two of them floated into the small courtyard that Fang Pengju had once brought Jiang Wang to.
This almost silent leaping technique caused Jiang Wang's vigilance to increase by a few degrees.
Fortunately, this place had not been arranged for anyone to live in. It was just abandoned.
This small courtyard had been left to Fang Pengju by his deceased father. Because of its special location, almost no one would come here.
Of course, even if this courtyard had been allocated by the Fang Clan, Jiang Wang would still have something to say. His friends almost never came back to live here, so it was normal for them to let their clansmen live here. Moreover, he had not been here for a long time, so it was reasonable that he did not know about it.
Smelling the dust in the courtyard, which had not been inhabited for a long time, the baldy nodded in satisfaction.
According to his habits, he would naturally immediately kill someone and dig out their heart.
However, Jiang Wang had already begun to explain to him naturally. "Three rooms in front of this courtyard is a large dining hall. You can go there and steal food."
With his back to the baldy, Jiang Wang pointed in the direction of the dining hall.
"My friends dislike the restrictions in the clan, so they rarely come back to live here."
Then, he turned and said, "The patrol time of the Fang Clan guards is …"
Sword light flashed!
Without any hesitation, Jiang Wang suddenly drew his sword!
The first move of the Killing technique of the East-rising Purple Qi Sword, the fastest of the five Killing techniques.
However, this move was not meant to attack the baldy. Instead, it was meant to bring Jiang Wang over the high wall and into the courtyard next door!
The baldy was not a procrastinator, but Jiang Wang was talking about the patrol time of the Fang Clan guards, which was very important for him to hide here. However, he did not expect this person to explode in the middle of his words.
What the baldy did not expect was that this kid who had yet to establish his foundation would have such a fast sword move. This was far beyond his expectations of this level of strength. His grab missed!
"Who dares to trespass into the Fang Clan's ancestral hall?"
Jiang Wang had just jumped into the courtyard next door when he heard a shout. An old man with white hair and beard jumped out of the room.
Yes, the small courtyard that Fang Pengju had once lived in was next to the Fang Clan's ancestral hall. This was what Jiang Wang relied on to delay!
After Fang Pengju's father had no hope in cultivation, he was arranged to stay here as the Fang Clan's ancestral hall guardian. Of course, he was not the real guardian. He was only in charge of cleaning the courtyard and cleaning the memorial tablets. This was actually a form of humiliation. He silently endured it, but placed all his hopes on his son.
Fang Pengju grew up in this courtyard. After his talent was gradually revealed, he was unwilling to move to another courtyard.
Jiang Wang had a plan. After meeting the white-haired old man, he turned and fled. At the same time, he activated his Dao Energy and shouted, "Heart Devouring Demon! Today, I'll make you pay! "
Xiong Wen, who had chased into the Fang Clan's ancestral hall, and the white-haired old man were both shocked.
The former was shocked that his identity had been discovered, while the latter was shocked by the fearsome reputation of the Heart Devouring Demon.
However, this thought only flashed through his mind. Now that the two of them were facing each other, there was no reason for them not to test each other.
In particular, the white-haired old man was overseeing the Fang Clan's ancestral hall. How could he abandon his duty and leave just because of a noisy reputation?
When he leaped out of the room, he had already started preparing his Dao technique. He had originally planned to target the sword-wielding thief, but now, he rubbed his hands together, and arrows with floating feathers flew out.
The Fang Clan's Dao technique, Thousand Feather Arrows.
To be honest, this Dao technique was not as profound as the Dao techniques taught by the Dao Academy. In fact, it was much cruder. The seals were complicated, and the floating feathers were flashy but impractical. The Dao Academy's Dao techniques were constantly changing, and this was also the reason why the clan's cultivation method was gradually declining.
However, the old man had been immersed in this Dao technique for many years. He was extremely familiar with it, and with his Eighth Stage Heavenly Cycle cultivation, his might could not be underestimated.
However, Xiong Wen only roared angrily. His tyrannical Dao Energy activated sound waves, and many of the floating feather arrows were scattered.
He casually shattered a few arrows that were aimed at his vitals, and his entire body crashed into the white-haired old man's body. One Hand Out Heart!
With Jiang Wang's shout, his whereabouts had already been exposed. He had to escape as soon as possible and end the battle quickly. Therefore, he used lightning-fast methods. He would rather suffer light injuries to instantly kill his opponent.
Xiong Wen looked at the shriveled heart in his hand and casually tossed it to the ground. "Disgusting."
The white-haired old man did not expect that he would not even be able to withstand a single blow. However, he was determined to give his opponent a surprise.
He looked at his old heart that was getting further and further away. Using the last of his strength, he activated all the Dao Energy in the Heavenly Connection Palace and sent it all into the token seal in his hand.
A brilliant radiance erupted.
The entire Fang Clan's ancestral hall was enveloped by a layer of clear light. At the top of the clear light, the phantom of a red-crowned crane stopped.
Its long body stood upright, and its eyes were cold.
The white-haired old man used the last of his life to activate the Fang Clan's ancestral hall's protective array.
He could vaguely hear the cry of a crane.
