The fierce battlefield seemed to have quietened down a little. The nearby Demon Alliance experts stopped to watch, surprised by Wu Sanjin's sudden arrival.
They were all local demons and were well aware of the grudges between Wu Sanjin and the Wu family. Although the more the merrier, where did he get the confidence to face the old patriarch?
"What, revenge?" The old man said indifferently, "If you had just sat in the position of Minister Zhang, I wouldn't have bothered with a junior like you. Today, you came here in such a threatening manner. Is it your idea or that brat's? "
"Is there a difference?" Wu Sanjin sneered.
"There is indeed no difference. I know why that brat saved you. He came to the northeast five years ago and hoped the Wu family would join his alliance. He wanted to play a game of alliance and slowly wear down the big families. Negotiations didn't work out, so I knew he wouldn't let it go. You're just his pawn. "
Wu Sanjin was silent. He wasn't just a pawn, he was even an abandoned one. So what? He needed an opportunity, and Bao Ze had given him one. Today's scene was a tacit understanding between him and that young man.
After the Qing dynasty, the bloodline world was the era of the families. With the collapse of the Qing dynasty that had been guarded for three hundred years, the bloodline world completely broke away from the control of the government and ushered in a golden age. All kinds of families rose up. After the founding of the country, even if the Buddhist Taoist Association stabilized the situation and restrained the bloodline, it could only maintain peace on the surface. The big families were like powerful vassal lords. On the surface, they served the central government as the boss, but in reality, they did things their own way.
It wasn't until the establishment of Bosch that many people in the bloodline world knew that the era of vassal lords had arrived. Centralization was something every dynasty had to do. A queen who didn't want to be the emperor's concubine wasn't a good queen.
Bosch would weaken the power of the big families sooner or later. No government would be willing to have groups of armed forces in their territory that they couldn't afford to offend.
It was just that the old man didn't expect the Wu family to be the starting point.
"Old patriarch, have you ever regretted it all these years?" Wu Sanjin asked softly.
The old man was quite straightforward and said indifferently, "Winner takes all."
He wasn't an old ancestor who lived in seclusion and didn't care about the affairs of the family. He was well aware of what his branch had done. In fact, he was rather impressed. Bloodline clans were not feudal dynasties that paid attention to hereditary succession. The position of the Patriarch had always been a competition among the bloodlines, and only the most capable could occupy it. The old man had lived for a hundred years. What had he not experienced? He could see through most things, but he couldn't see through the word "offspring". The older they got, the more they hoped for their family to prosper. This kid was his cousin's descendant, but he was still inferior to his own son's descendant.
His great-grandson, Tuo Mu, had been outstanding enough, but he had been surpassed by Wu Sanjin, the kind that would never be able to rise again in this lifetime. It would have been fine if this child didn't have any ambition, but he just couldn't let go of the position of the family head. Since he was a restless person, so what if he was a genius? It didn't matter if he was abandoned. The Wu Clan was flourishing, so what if they lacked a genius?
"Winner takes all, loser takes all. The Wu Clan's current situation is all your fault. If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked. The Wu family of the northeast will not be rebuilt without destruction today. " In his eyes, the people he hated the most were not Wu Tuomu and his son, but this old man who had watched coldly from the sidelines and deliberately indulged him.
The old man laughed loudly, his face full of mockery. "What, you want to rectify the Wu Clan's rules?"
"I'm not as noble as you say. From the beginning to the end, I'm just an avenger." Wu Sanjin suddenly disappeared, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of the old man. He disgracefully pressed down on the old ancestor's forehead and pushed him dozens of meters in one breath.
Along the way, humans and demons all retreated. Those who couldn't avoid in time were crushed into pieces by the rampaging Qi activity between the two.
After rushing dozens of meters, Wu Sanjin's palm energy shot out and sent the old man flying.
The old man spun in the air, easily dispersing the force. With a saber strike, he pushed back the beast that wanted to take advantage of the situation. Touching his bleeding forehead, the old man who had been invincible in the northeast for dozens of years finally revealed a solemn expression. "I underestimated you. If I give you another ten years, I'll have to give up my position as the northeast's number one."
As expected, no one shattered the old man's head with one palm. Wu Sanjin's eyes blazed with red light. "Ten years? Old family head, I can't wait ten years. "
As soon as he finished speaking, the two disappeared at the same time. Their weapons clashed in mid-air, and the Qi activity rippled out, sending sand and stones flying.
They both had Speed Ability, but they seemed to be on par?
The people from the Demon League and the Wu family were stunned.
Ability was the same as skills. The older one was, the more experienced they were. The longer they lived, the more proficient they would be in using it. Killing an old master with three punches was not something that would happen in the Ability field.
How old was Wu Sanjin? He was only thirty years old, but his Ability was actually comparable to the old family head.
Wasn't this too fantastical? Even the rise of a good-for-nothing wouldn't be this exaggerated.
Liu Mei quietly retreated, avoiding the battle of revenge. She appeared behind the squinty-eyed man like a ghost and grabbed the back of his neck. She said coldly, "What's going on? Why is Wu Sanjin here?"
Even a snake's tail would know that something was wrong. The Demon League and the Wu family were fighting to the death. That was a matter between the two families and the Bloodline World. From Bosch's standpoint, he should be sitting on top of the mountain and watching the tigers fight. After all, it was an organization whose main goal was to maintain stability.
"Wu Sanjin is abusing his position to avenge a personal grudge. He's taking advantage of the conflict between the Demon League and the Wu family. Otherwise, even if he brought all of Fengtian's forces, he wouldn't be able to destroy the Wu family. "The squinty-eyed man's expression was normal, and he even wanted to laugh.
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? Are you colluding with him? Or are you colluding with Bosch? "Liu Mei's eyes flashed with a cold murderous intent.
"Wu Sanjin is abusing his position to avenge a personal grudge. As for Bosch, its foundation is too shallow, so it said that it wouldn't intervene in the disputes of the Bloodline World. But do you think that any dynasty would just stand by and watch as vassals rise up and swallow up the land? These are all excuses. Of course, now isn't the time to fall out with the major families. That's why they pushed out Wu Sanjin to start the first battle. Whether it succeeds or fails, they will push the responsibility to him. This is the price that Wu Sanjin has to pay for his position. He knows that Bosch is giving him a chance to take revenge. Even if he's being used as a pawn, he's willing to endure it. "
"Remove the vassals? Will the Demon League have an easy time after that? "
"That's why, in order for the Demon League to continue to prosper, we need a wise leader like me."
"What's your purpose?" Liu Mei shouted.
The squinty-eyed man turned his head and turned his head back. He said with a smile, "The election for the Alliance Leader will be held in a few days. If you have the strength, save it for then fight with me."
His expression turned stiff, and then his body deflated like a balloon. In the end, all that was left in Liu Mei's hand was a paper doll.
"The Japanese shikigami is indeed useful." His chuckle lingered in the wind.
"Wu Sanjin, you bastard. I knew that I would let the tiger return to the mountain and leave a future threat."
Wu Yuanping held a large-caliber Desert Eagle in his left hand. The bullets were specially made and could effectively kill Bloodlines. In his right hand was a folding knife. The Wu Family's Espers were good at sneak attacks and assassinations. Light weapons were their first choice.
As the head of the family, he had to face the enemy head-on. It wasn't that he didn't care about his life, but if he ran away, the Wu Family's fighting spirit would disappear.
"Dad, can Grandpa deal with that little bastard?" Wu Tuomu's expression was unsightly. He was already in his thirties. His appearance was average, but his talent wasn't bad. If it wasn't for the dark horse Wu Sanjin, he would definitely be the undisputed number one among his peers.
Wu Yuanping only had one son when he was thirty. He and his wife were cousins. Their first child died a few months after birth, and their second child was deformed. Only with their third child did they have this healthy and talented son. They had doted on him since he was young.
Wu Yuanping slapped his son's face, causing him to stagger. His expression was savage. "Why didn't you dispose of that woman's body? Either store it in the warehouse or destroy it. Why did you let her wander around outside?"
In order to refine the Mother-Child Yin Sha, Wu Tuomu didn't dare to speak. He lowered his head and said nothing.
"Don't talk about him. If he had the energy, he'd be better off with those disgusting bastards," the well-maintained and charming woman shouted. As the family head's wife, she had also been a good fighter when she was young. Although she had been pampered all these years and her skills had declined, she was still better than those clansmen who were not good at fighting and used their Esper abilities to run away.
"Pfff!"
Just as she finished speaking, her chest was pierced by a steel ball. She lowered her head in disbelief.
"Mother!"
"Careful!"
The clansmen protecting the family head reacted after a brief moment of panic. They formed a human wall to protect the family head.
"Pfff Pfff!"
Another few steel balls shot over, taking away two fresh lives.
"Don't surround him. Disperse. Don't be a live target," Wu Yuanping shouted.
"Don't go!" Chen Xiong's low roar was followed by a loud rumble. A muscular man with a stiff body crashed into the Wu Clan's camp like a cannonball.
The Wu Clan members immediately dispersed. Jin Gang missed his target, and his feet blasted two deep holes in the ground. In front of the Wu Clan members who possessed extreme speed, any sneak attack was a joke.
Wu Yuanping had just appeared a dozen meters away when a rectangular metal strip was suddenly thrown over. "Bang, bang, bang!" Following closely were several other metal strips. He was shocked and knew something was wrong. He saw the metal strip make a "ka ka" sound, and the inside of the metal strip popped out with many layers of mortise and tenon structures.
Whoosh!
A hemispherical energy barrier formed, enveloping him inside.
Wu Yuanping slashed down with his blade. Not only did he fail to break the barrier, he was instead hit by a huge rebound.
"You can't get away." Thunder Zhanhime appeared outside the hemispherical barrier.
This was the instrument that Wu Sanjin gave her before he left. It was a combination of Daoist sealing techniques and advanced technology. Bosch's equipment department loved to tinker with strange things all day long, and this was also their creation. It was specialized in restraining the Wu Clan's fancy Esper abilities.
