Dead silence!
After Lu An spoke, the entire place fell into dead silence! No one present spoke, but everyone's eyes were clearly filled with dissatisfaction as they looked at Lu An!
If Lu An's previous behavior could only be considered rude, then what he said just now was equivalent to directly threatening the lives of the clan leader and young master!
The atmosphere in the palace immediately became very cold, as if it was even colder than the temperature of black ice. Everyone was looking at Lu An, including Jiang Kuo.
The smile on Jiang Kuo's face gradually disappeared, but he did not show any anger. Instead, it was replaced by a solemn expression. Jiang Kuo looked at Lu An thoughtfully. After a few breaths, he opened his mouth and asked Lu An, "Whose life do you want?"
"I want both." Lu An did not hide it and said indifferently, "And I don't only want the lives of the two of you. Just the two of you are far from enough."
"…"
Jiang Kuo took a deep breath to ease the atmosphere. He was not angry and said kindly, "This matter is very difficult. We need to think about it at length. And … you said that two people are far from enough. Whose life do you want? "
Lu An did not hesitate when he heard this and said directly, "Chu Li and Chu Hanming."
As soon as these words were said, everyone present was shocked and looked at Lu An in surprise!
Everyone present could understand that Lu An wanted Chu Li's life, and it was also within their expectations. However, they did not expect that Lu An would actually want Chu Hanming's life!
In fact, Chu Hanming did not participate much in the matter back then. At most, he indulged his daughter and allowed her to ask for a sky-high price from the Kang Clan. He agreed to her condition that Lu Ting must die. However, if they really pursued the matter, Chu Hanming did not have much responsibility. Even if Chu Li had used the strength and resources of the Chu Clan to threaten the Kang Clan, Chu Hanming's crime did not warrant death.
Now that he had mentioned that he wanted Chu Hanming's life and Jiang Kuo's life, everyone present completely understood that Lu An really wanted the two clans to perish.
After Lu An spoke, the atmosphere once again became oppressive, and the room fell into a deadlock. Even Jiang Kuo didn't know what to say. The number of people Lu An wanted to kill was beyond his expectations. It made him realize how difficult it would be to make Lu An acknowledge his ancestors.
After a few breaths, Jiang Kuo could only speak again. "I can't interfere with the hatred between you and the Chu Family. I don't have the strength to interfere. Let's just talk about the hatred between you and the Kang Clan. I hope that you can at least temporarily put it down and return to the Kang Clan to feel the environment and atmosphere of the clan. The Kang Clan also has many secret techniques for you to learn and improve your strength. In a war, we should put down our hatred and focus on cooperation. Since that's the case, why don't we return to the Kang Clan? If the war ends one day, we can split up again and take revenge on each other. "
"When the time comes, your strength will increase in the war. Coupled with the fact that you've learned the Black Ice Secret Technique, as well as the information and weaknesses you've collected while living in the Kang Clan, wouldn't it be easier for you to attack the Kang Clan?"
"…"
Everyone present looked at the Clan Leader. They were all very shrewd, so how could they not know what the Clan Leader was planning?
Boiling the frog in warm water. First, let Lu An return to the Kang Clan. It would be best if Lu An could slowly develop feelings for many people in the Kang Clan. Especially when they fought together on the battlefield and went through fire and water together, it was the best way to develop brotherly feelings. There might even be people who risked their lives to save Lu An. At that time, Lu An would have a lot of concerns if he wanted to attack the Kang Clan. It might even be impossible.
As time passed, everything would become logical. It was even very likely that Lu An would no longer pursue the Jiang family's responsibility.
As for the Chu Clan … they didn't care at all.
After Jiang Kuo finished speaking, everyone turned to look at Lu An to see what Lu An's choice would be. If Lu An bluntly refused again, the possibility of both sides reconciling would be close to zero.
After two breaths, Lu An said, "Did Jiang Yuan agree to let me come to the Kang Clan? Did Chu Li agree? "
"Jiang Yuan naturally agreed." When Jiang Kuo saw that Lu An didn't refuse and instead asked a question, he heaved a sigh of relief. This meant that both sides still had a chance. He immediately said, "Chu Li also agreed. In fact, Jiang Yuan was the one who proposed the plan to let you come back to me. He was also the one who persuaded Chu Li to agree."
Jiang Yuan proposed it?
Lu An's heart sank. His original intention was to refuse on the spot, but Liu Yi had told him to try his best to find out why the Kang Clan's attitude had changed. That was why he asked this question.
Jiang Yuan taking the initiative to propose it was really shocking. Jiang Yuan was very afraid of Chu Li. Lu An had seen this with his own eyes during the war in Purple Lake City. He and Liu Yi had always thought that it was Jiang Kuo who made the decision and personally persuaded Chu Li. They had never thought that it was Jiang Yuan who did it!
What exactly happened that made Chu Li, who hated him so much, give in to Jiang Yuan?
Instead of guessing, Lu An asked without any psychological burden, "Didn't Chu Li always want to kill me? She even broke the ten-year promise. How could she suddenly be persuaded by Jiang Yuan? "
"That's why we have to thank Jiang Yuan." Jiang Kuo smiled and said kindly, "In fact, we were also very surprised, but this is the truth. After Jiang Yuan entered the Heaven Realm, Chu Li's attitude towards him was much better than before. Perhaps under Jiang Yuan's constant persuasion, Chu Li was also willing to let go of her resentment and prejudice against you. You see, as long as you don't go to a dead end, many things are actually not as difficult as you think. Chu Li's temperament can change, so why can't you change with your calm personality? "
Jiang Kuo's persuasion was indeed very sincere and effective. Even the others present felt very sympathetic. However, it was completely ineffective on Lu An. Lu An's eyes didn't change from beginning to end. He didn't answer Jiang Kuo's question. Instead, he said, "Before I figure out why Chu Li changed her attitude, my attitude won't change either. I'm worried that I'll be poisoned on the first day I come here, and I won't even know how I died. "
Hearing Lu An's words, Jiang Kuo's heart felt a little heavy. To be able to sit on the position of clan leader, one not only needed strength, but also outstanding wisdom. He naturally knew that Lu An probably hadn't changed his mind at all and just wanted to gather more information about the Kang Clan. However, no matter what, as long as there was a possibility of reconciliation, he had to do it. Even if Lu An hadn't changed his mind yet, there would be a day when he would change his mind after a few more interactions.
"I just said that it was Jiang Yuan who persuaded her to change her mind," Jiang Kuo said kindly. "I don't know the details, but change is always a good thing. If you really want to know the details, I'll call Jiang Yuan over. Or you can go and see Jiang Yuan? "
See Jiang Yuan?
No, Lu An didn't think that seeing Jiang Yuan would be of any help because the key to this matter wasn't Jiang Yuan, but Chu Li.
"I want to see Chu Li," Lu An said bluntly.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present trembled in shock. After all, Chu Li wasn't a member of the Kang Clan, so it was very troublesome to control her. Even though Chu Li's temperament had changed drastically recently, and she had become completely different from before, from her arrogant personality to her reserved personality, who could predict what would happen when enemies met? It wasn't easy to make some progress in the negotiations. What if it collapsed?
In fact, everyone in the Kang Clan knew that Chu Li hated Lu An so much because she and Jiang Yuan had never had a child. They thought that it was because Lu An hadn't gotten rid of the evil spawn, but in reality, no one really believed this. Although fate was hard to predict, the possibility of this happening was too small and too strange.
In the face of Lu An's request, Jiang Kuo fell silent for a moment. He was thinking about what to do. Should he ask Lu An to see Chu Li or call Chu Li here?
After a few breaths, countless possibilities and consequences flashed through Jiang Kuo's mind. Finally, after weighing the pros and cons, he said, "I'll ask Jiang Yuan and Chu Li to come together. As the saying goes, whoever started the trouble should end it. You two can talk face to face."
After saying this, Jiang Kuo didn't even need to send someone to call them. A Divine Sense instantly flew out of the ice palace and went straight into the distance.
Lu An sat on a chair and waited quietly. He knew that he was about to meet the two people he hated the most.
Lu An turned his head and looked at the palace's door. Sure enough, the people in the palace didn't have to wait for long. Soon, two figures appeared outside the palace. One of them raised his hand and released a power to open the palace's door.
Rumble …
The huge door gradually opened, and the two figures outside immediately appeared in front of everyone.
