Jiang Cheng had thought that Patriarch Wang would ask about alchemy, but now he suddenly asked about Wang Xiaoyu. Jiang Cheng immediately realized that this old man was a cunning old fox. Before coming here, Wang Xiaoyu had heard from her grandfather that she and Jiang Cheng were to get married. If it had been anyone else, she definitely wouldn't have agreed. However, this person was Jiang Cheng. After hearing this news, she felt a trace of happiness and shyness in her heart. When she heard her grandfather mention her, she shyly lowered her head and stared at her delicate jade-like hands. She kept fiddling with them, but her ears quietly perked up.
Patriarch Wang, I have known Xiaoyu for a long time, and I have always regarded her as my best friend. Jiang Cheng knew the meaning of Wang Changhe's words, so he also expressed his position vaguely. Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Wang Xiaoyu's ruddy smiling face quickly turned pale. She suddenly raised her head and asked, "Are we just friends?" Wang Xiaoyu looked at Jiang Cheng blankly, as if she wanted to get a confirmation.
Jiang Cheng did not answer, but just nodded slightly.
At this time, Wang Bin slightly frowned and said, "Jiang Cheng, we all know the relationship between you and Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu also likes you very much. You see …"
Before Wang Bin finished his words, he was interrupted by Jiang Cheng. Jiang Cheng said calmly, "I like Xiaoyu, but it's just a friendship between friends, not love. So, Xiaoyu! I hope you can understand. "
Wang Bin sighed helplessly. The smile on Wang Changhe's face slowly faded, and he looked at Jiang Cheng coldly.
Wang Xiaoyu nodded and said, "Is it because of Sister Qinglan?"
Jiang Cheng shook his head and said, "No! Not her! "
"Then why can't you accept me? Do you like other women? "
Wang Changhe had been staring at Jiang Cheng the entire time. He could sense that Jiang Cheng was intentionally avoiding something. As for what it was, he knew very well what it was, so he didn't beat around the bush. In a clear voice, he said, "Alright, since little brat Jiang doesn't like my granddaughter, my Wang Family won't force you. However, I heard that you refined a medicinal pill that caused a heavenly phenomenon. Is that true?
Jiang Cheng knew that this was the main topic, so he nodded and said, "That's true. I refined a rather special third-grade pill, which is why it caused such a phenomenon!"
Jiang Cheng said calmly. He couldn't hide it. After all, there were countless onlookers on that day. He couldn't lie through his teeth, so he simply admitted it. Oh? What kind of pill did you refine? Can you explain it to this old man? Wang Changhe said calmly, but even so, the atmosphere in the courtyard became heavy.
Jiang Cheng said coldly, "Master Wang, are you going to use threats and promises?
Brat, don't think that you can challenge this old man just because you killed two Eight-Star Origin Generals. You don't have that strength. So, while this old man is still in a good mood, it's best to tell the truth.
Father, you can't be … "Wang Bin was about to speak when he saw Wang Changhe's mind move. An extremely strong soul power instantly rushed out.
Wang Bin felt a huge force attack him. He knelt on the ground and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He looked at his father in fear.
"Bin 'er, this is just a warning. If you speak nonsense again, even if you are my son, I won't show mercy." Wang Changhe said coldly.
In truth, Wang Changhe was also trying to make a show of strength to Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng saw everything and understood that this Wang Family Head was a vicious and merciless person. He sneered and said, "I have already said that I am concocting a third-grade pill. Whether you believe me or not has nothing to do with me. Also, you have to know that I, Jiang Cheng, am not afraid of any threats. Since I dare to challenge the Fu Family, then in my eyes, the other families are the same."
Arrogant! Kid, you need to know who you are talking to! I'll give you one more chance to submit to my Wang Clan.
What else? Jiang Cheng said with a sneer.
And … death! When Wang Changhe said the word 'death', his voice was very low. A monstrous aura fiercely pressed towards Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng knew that the situation was urgent. He instantly opened the third divine acupoint. An extremely violent spirit qi gathered quickly. All the tables and chairs in the courtyard were shattered into pieces. Jiang Cheng's aura was increasing crazily. Soon, it reached the peak of the Eight Star Source General. He was only one step away from the Nine Star Source General.
Wang Changhe didn't expect that Jiang Cheng actually dared to fight with him. A trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes. He said, "Kid, you need to know that if you make a wrong move now, you will be doomed eternally! Hmph, the life of I, Jiang Cheng, has always been in my own hands. If your Wang Family wants to bully me, then I can only resist with my life! " Jiang Cheng said seriously. He was still not afraid of Wang Changhe.
Good! Since this is your choice, then I have no choice but to kill you! Wang Changhe's whole body shone with green light. The cultivation of the Nine Star Source General was undoubtedly revealed. "Boom!"
The bluestone in the courtyard was instantly shattered into pieces. It could be seen that the gap between Jiang Cheng and Wang Changhe was still huge.
The two forces were already fighting secretly. Jiang Cheng's back was already wet with cold sweat. Facing the supreme spirit pressure of the Nine Star Source General, his face turned pale.
Just when the two sides were about to fight, Wang Xiaoyu suddenly shouted, "Grandpa, let Jiang Cheng go!"
Wang Changhe loved this granddaughter the most. When he heard Wang Xiaoyu's shout, he said coldly, "Xiaoyu, retreat now. This kid doesn't have you in his heart at all!
Grandpa, I beg you for the last time. Although he doesn't have me in his heart, I don't want him to be hurt! " Wang Xiaoyu was already crying. Her pitiful look broke the hearts of everyone present.
A trace of struggle flashed in Wang Changhe's eyes. He said, "If I let him go today, he will definitely join the Bai Clan in the future!
Hmph, even if I, Jiang Cheng, die, I will not sell my life for a certain force. If you force me today, then we will fight to the death! "
"Kid! Are you really not afraid of death? " Wang Changhe asked in a stern voice.
"I only have one life. Of course, I am afraid of death. But if I don't even have freedom, then I would rather die!" Jiang Cheng said it in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. He could still maintain his composure at the moment of life and death.
"Good, kid, remember what you said today!" "Also, this old man let you go today because of Xiaoyu. The next time we meet, don't blame my Wang Clan for not giving you face!"
Jiang Cheng glanced at Wang Changhe coldly. He knew that his friendship with the Wang Clan had ended. The next time they met, they might really have to fight to the death. He then turned to Wang Xiaoyu and said, "You are a good girl, but I, Jiang Cheng, am just a wanderer. I am not worthy of you. Also … forget me!"
After speaking, Jiang Cheng turned and left without a trace of hesitation.
At this moment, the Wang Family's courtyard was in chaos. Wang Xiaoyu left in a daze after Jiang Cheng left. Wang Bin didn't think things would develop to this point. He also didn't know why his father was forcing Jiang Cheng like this.
Wang Changhe stared at Jiang Cheng's departing figure and a trace of viciousness flashed through his eyes. So the Wang Family's backer was the ruler of the Earth Spirit Region, Xiao Yuanfeng. That was why the Wang Family could be so tyrannical in the Earth Spirit Region and have auction houses all over the Earth Spirit Region. The Fu Family and the Bai Family didn't dare to say anything.
However, Wang Changhe only suspected that Jiang Cheng was a fourth-rank pill master. But since Jiang Cheng denied it, there was nothing he could do.
At this time, a black shadow suddenly appeared next to Wang Changhe and said in a sharp voice, "Patriarch Wang, you haven't forgotten what Lord Xiao told you, have you?"
Wang Changhe didn't turn around and seemed to be very familiar with this black shadow. He said in a low voice, "Humph, I will naturally keep Lord Xiao's orders in mind. If this Jiang Cheng really is a fourth-rank pill master, then I will capture him even if I have to use the power of the entire family.
Keke, Patriarch Wang, don't be angry, I'm just reminding you.
Humph, I, Wang Changhe, don't need you to remind me what to do. If there's nothing important, it's best if you don't appear in front of me. Wang Changhe said in a taboo tone.
Alright, since Patriarch Wang hates me so much, then I'll leave first! Finished speaking, the black shadow instantly disappeared.
Wang Changhe turned around and saw that the black shadow had disappeared. Although he was working for Xiao Yuanfeng, the ruler of the Earth Spirit Region, on the surface to find a fourth-rank pill master, as a Nine Star Origin General, he hoped to obtain a fourth-rank pill master even more. As long as he could refine a pill for breaking through to Martial King, he would be on equal footing with Lord Xiao. He might even unify the Earth Spirit Region and make the Wang Family a Paragon family.
After Jiang Cheng left the Wang Family's residence, he didn't have any intention of stopping. He wanted to leave Wind Tomb City immediately. Because of the phenomenon, Wind Tomb City had become a place of trouble. He didn't want to become the center of attention.
At this time, Jiang Cheng sensed a familiar aura rapidly approaching. Jiang Cheng turned around and looked coldly in front of him. With a whistling sound, Bai Xiaoqing instantly appeared next to Jiang Cheng.
Heh! I wonder if Miss Bai is here to kill me? Jiang Cheng sneered.
Jiang Cheng, I admit that we had many misunderstandings before, but I was also used by the Fu Family.
Alright, since you're not here to kill me, then tell me your purpose!
You know that I'm from the Bai Family, and I also know that the Wang Family came looking for you just now. However, if you come to my Bai Family, we definitely won't restrict your freedom. Bai Xiaoqing seemed to understand Jiang Cheng very well.
I'm only a third-rank pill master. Why do you top families want me to submit to you!?
The phenomenon that appeared while you were refining a pill is something that you probably didn't expect. However, this already explains everything. It's impossible for a third-rank pill to have a phenomenon.
This is just your guess. Also, I won't submit to any faction. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first!
After speaking, Jiang Cheng was about to leave. He didn't have much of a relationship with this Bai Xiaoqing, and the two of them had fought many times before. He was still rather wary of this woman's methods.
Young Master Ye, don't be anxious. I know you won't agree, and I won't force you. I just want to tell you a piece of news.
What good news can you tell me? Jiang Cheng said disdainfully.
Next month, there will be a youth competition in Wang Capital City that will cover the entire Earth Spirit Region. I believe that with Young Master Ye's heaven-defying battle prowess, it won't be a problem for you to take first place!
