When Shi Lang heard that there was a chance to redeem himself, he instinctively wanted to agree.
But when he heard the mission clearly, Shi Lang forcefully swallowed the words at the tip of his tongue.
"Elder Chen, Qin Han has humiliated me too much. If I can't capture him with my own hands, the anger in my heart will not be appeased. Please grant my Shi family full authority to pursue Qin Han. "
Although Qin Han had escaped, Shi Lang still had some confidence in catching Qin Han within the capital.
Yun Chen's mission didn't sound very difficult. It was just to hunt down a few remnants of the royal family. Just a few young disciples.
But if Shi Lang really thought so, then he was gravely mistaken.
If the remnants of the Jiang Family were so easy to deal with, how could the Yun Family have made no progress after so long? How could they still be unable to catch them all in one fell swoop?
Without a doubt, there was a problem here.
If the Yun Family's strength and foundation couldn't completely exterminate the Jiang Family, then it would undoubtedly be even more difficult for his Shi Family to do it.
Therefore, Shi Lang didn't really dare accept this mission.
Yun Chen could naturally hear that Shi Lang was clearly timid. His old face darkened slightly. "What? Your Shi Family has always blown their own trumpet and desperately demanded power from the Yun Family. Now that I've really given you some responsibility, you're chickening out? "
Shi Lang was drenched in sweat. As one of the top three of the Yun Family's nine elders, Yun Chen's slight pressure made Shi Lang feel as though he was carrying a heavy burden.
"Alright, this matter is settled. Remember, your Shi Family is the leader of this matter. The Shi Family has full authority over the pillar-level families in the capital. "
Yun Chen obviously wouldn't give Shi Lang a chance to refuse. With a wave of his withered hand, this matter was settled.
Hearing that the other pillar-level families in the capital were at his disposal, Shi Lang's heart moved slightly.
"Elder Chen, do you mean that our Shi Family can order around every pillar-level family at will?" Shi Lang asked.
Yun Chen smiled indifferently. "Of course. However, does your Shi Family have that kind of prestige? What methods will you use to convince everyone? This will depend on your ability, Shi Lang. "
Shi Lang rubbed his hands excitedly. "Elder Chen, don't worry. If all the pillar-grade clans are willing to listen to my orders, I'll definitely be able to handle this matter beautifully."
There were six pillar-level families in the capital.
Shi Lang felt confident that the six pillar-grade clans would be able to capture a few surviving members of the royal family if they joined hands.
Yun Chen's old face was still wearing a faint smile. His fingers lightly tapped on the table. "Remember, this matter must be done in a high-profile manner. He had to be as high profile as he could be. We must make sure that the whole city is in a state of panic at the slightest sound. "
Shi Lang was taken aback. "Isn't that beating the grass and alerting the snake?"
Yun Chen's smile was meaningful. "Do as I say. To the outside world, you can even announce that our Yun Family is ready to wage war against Yin-Yang Academy and is in a state of preparation for war. The remaining members of the royal family were nothing to worry about. This kind of small matter can be left to you pillar families to handle. "
Shi Lang shuddered and asked emotionally, "Elder Chen, are you finally going to declare war on the academy?"
Shi Lang's tone was filled with excitement and urgency.
Yun Chen smiled faintly. "I'll let you know when it's time for you to know. For now, do what I tell you to do. "
Shi Lang clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said hatefully, "I only have one request. Declare war on the Academy and attack the Moon Seal Mountain. I, Shi Lang, must be included."
Yun Chen knew why Shi Lang was so angry. The deaths of Shi Kun and Shi Jin had clearly been a huge blow to Yun Chen. No one was surprised by Shi Lang's reaction.
"Don't worry. Yin-Yang Academy will definitely give you ten times the opportunity to make up for what they did to your son and nephew. When that time comes, that kid from the Qin family will fall into your hands. You can do whatever you want to him. "
Shi Lang nodded, his eyes filled with malice.
After Shi Lang left, Yun Chen clapped his hands. A figure flashed out from a hidden door in the room. It was a young man.
This young man had a cold face. His features were typical of the Yun Family bloodline. His eyes were cold and his nose was high.
"Chao 'er, the family is working on two fronts. As the leader of this generation in the family, how much do you know about this? "
This young man was called Yun Chao. He was obviously a direct descendant of Yun Chen's. Yun Chen's tone was filled with concern, as well as a test.
Yun Chao thought for a moment, then said, "Grandfather, with our ability to destroy the Jiang family, I don't believe that we can't catch a few of them. I believe that there must be a deeper meaning behind the current stalemate. "
"Continue," Yun Chen said encouragingly.
"The reason why the Jiang family hasn't been exterminated is because they must still be of use. I've thought about this seriously. Our Yun Family destroyed the Jiang family and replaced them. In terms of strength and prestige, he was more than enough. But in terms of status, he might need time to consolidate it. Does the Jiang family have some keepsake, or some inheritance of the royal family? Or did the Jiang family leave something behind that we need to make use of these Jiang family remnants? "
Yun Chao had obviously thought about this as well, so his guesses were quite logical.
An appreciative smile appeared on Yun Chen's face. "Very good, Chao 'er. It seems that you've thought about this seriously. It's already very rare for you to think of this. Yes, the Jiang Family indeed needed to get clues from these surviving members of the Jiang Family. This is also the reason why they haven't been exterminated yet. "
Yun Chao asked curiously, "Grandfather, what is it that makes the family so calm?"
"The royal family's inheritance!"
Yun Chen enunciated each and every word as he uttered these words.
Then he said, "The so-called royal family's inheritance consists of three things. First, the Imperial Jade Seal, which is the only keepsake of becoming a member of the royal family. Second, the royal family's treasure, which is the material foundation of becoming a member of the royal family. Third, which is also the most fundamental, is the Jiang family's unique inheritance. This is also the biggest reason why the Jiang family has been suppressing the Yun Family. It's the Jiang family's inheritance relic. "
Yun Chao could understand the first two things.
But what was the third thing, the inheritance relic?
"Grandfather, what is the inheritance relic? Is it a bloodline inheritance? "Yun Chao asked curiously.
