Jiang Ping's words were unexpected by everyone present, not to mention Lu An.
Not to mention Lu An, even Deputy Supervisor Jiang Mu did not know about this matter. He had not received any information before. However, it was true that many clans were recruiting Heaven Tier experts from the outside world. After all, people would die in war. Once too many people died, the strength of the clan would decline. At that time, many unforeseen events could occur. Therefore, they had to recruit talents from the outside world. Even if they did not need these people to participate in the war, it would be good as long as they could maintain the status of the clan within the Spirit Race.
Jiang Ping's words were very sincere, but the problem was that they were empty words without proof. No one had joined the Jiang Clan's forces. No one could predict how the Jiang Clan's promises would be fulfilled in the end. Some clans spoke very well at the beginning, but in reality, they were doing something else. The people in the banquet hall only had long interactions with the Chamber of Commerce. They basically did not have much interaction with the Jiang Clan.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall became silent and still. Everyone looked at each other, and no one took the initiative to speak. However, facing such a situation, Jiang Ping did not feel awkward. Instead, he smiled and said, "Everyone, there is no need to be in a hurry to answer. I am only representing the Jiang Clan to raise this matter. As for whether or not you want to join, it is up to you. Everyone here is trustworthy. As long as you want to join the Jiang Clan, you can do so at any time. After the banquet, everyone can go back and think about it. The Jiang Clan welcomes you at any time. "
"…"
Hearing Jiang Ping say that there was no need to answer today, these people finally relaxed. Otherwise, in their opinion, the purpose of this banquet was not pure from the beginning. It could even be a trap.
Since there was no need to answer, the atmosphere gradually became lively again. However, many people were chatting and laughing on the surface, talking about meaningless things. However, they were secretly communicating, using divine sense to ask each other for their opinions.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in Lu An's sea of consciousness.
"Brother Chu, what do you think? Do you want to join? "
Lu An frowned slightly and turned to look to the side. The person who spoke was none other than Liu Tianen, whom he had met eight days ago.
Lu An didn't expect that Liu Tianen would suddenly speak to him. He didn't want to pay any attention to him; after all, this person might be an intelligence agent of the Chamber of Commerce. But if he didn't respond, it would seem even stranger. So, he lightly replied with a spiritual sense sound transmission, "I'm not interested."
Hearing Lu An's reply, Liu Tianen was obviously stunned. He had thought that Lu An might not want to join, but he did not expect Lu An to reject it so bluntly. He asked, "Why?"
"I'm used to being alone, and I don't like to be controlled by others," Lu An said, "Besides, I have a conflict with Jiang Xin. Wouldn't I be asking for trouble if I went?"
Hearing Lu An's answer, Liu Tianen was obviously stunned, but he had to admit that what Lu An said was very reasonable. He had just gotten into an argument with Jiang Ping's daughter. How could he still join the Jiang family? Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?
"Why? Do you want to join?" Lu An asked.
"I'm also hesitating." Liu Tianen had a headache. He said, "After doing missions for so many years, I'm already used to this kind of life. Once idle barbarians like us join a clan, we might not be able to adapt. However, the resources of a clan are not something we can have. Moreover, once we join, we will have the opportunity to enter a planet closer to the core. This is very likely to increase our strength! "
Hearing Liu Tianen's answer, Lu An didn't say anything else. He only shrugged, indicating that he would let Liu Tianen think about it as he couldn't give any suggestions.
After Jiang Ping finished speaking, the banquet didn't continue for long and soon came to an end. At the banquet, no one agreed to join the Jiang family. Instead, they all wanted to go back and slowly observe and think about it, weighing the pros and cons. Jiang Ping was not in a hurry. He let a few managers see the guests out while he left to talk with the president of the Chamber of Commerce.
The managers left the banquet hall to see the guests out. Lu An naturally walked out of the banquet hall as well. After leaving the Chamber of Commerce, Lu An bade farewell to the managers and flew out of the city.
His teleportation array was outside the city. Naturally, he would first use the teleportation array to go to the uninhabited planet that he had been living on. Then, he would use the teleportation array to go to the Heavenly Star River. However … just as Lu An was flying halfway, he suddenly felt an aura behind him, causing him to frown.
After thinking about it, Lu An didn't stop. Instead, he continued to fly forward until he reached the wilderness outside the city. He found an open space and flew down.
When Lu An fell to the ground, the aura behind him increased in speed and chased after Lu An.
Lu An didn't leave. Instead, he turned around and looked behind him.
Bang!
The earth trembled. A figure stood in front of Lu An, less than twenty feet away.
It was none other than Jiang Ping's daughter, Jiang Xin.
Jiang Xin was also in the Heaven Tier. However, her cultivation level was not as high as Lu An's. There was no one else behind Jiang Xin. She was alone. Jiang Xin followed him all the way and had no intention of hiding. Lu An frowned and asked in a low voice, "Why is Lady Jiang following me?"
"There isn't even a path here. What makes you think I'm following you?" Jiang Xin questioned.
"…"
Lu An frowned even more. He didn't want to have any argument with this woman. Moreover, he didn't want to have any relationship with any woman, whether she was from the Heavenly Star River or the Spirit Race. Even if it was his own wishful thinking, Lu An didn't want to have any chance of getting involved.
Moreover … with Jiang Xin's status and her reckless personality, Lu An didn't believe that she would know any core secrets of the clan.
Lu An didn't care anymore. He turned around and prepared to leave.
"I haven't finished speaking. What makes you think you can leave?" Jiang Xin immediately stopped him.
Lu An stopped. He turned around and looked at Jiang Xin. He said coldly, "What do you want? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't tell me that a member of the Jiang Clan doesn't even dare to speak? "
"You!!" Jiang Xin was so angry that she gritted her teeth. With her temper, how could she tolerate this? She immediately threw a punch at Lu An's chest!
Her cultivation level was lower than Lu An's. Even if she activated the Demon Gods Realm, she wouldn't be able to catch up to Lu An's cultivation level. How could Lu An be hit by this punch?
Lu An raised his right hand and grabbed her wrist single-handedly. At the same time, he used his right arm to pull behind him. He forcefully pulled Jiang Xin to his right, causing her to lose her balance. At the same time, he grabbed her right hand and locked it behind her back. With a simple pull, he locked Jiang Xin from behind. Jiang Xin bent her body with her back facing Lu An. She couldn't resist!
"Ouch!!" Jiang Xin instantly screamed. Lu An's grip on her wrist was indeed very strong. Coupled with the fact that her arm was locked behind her back, her entire arm was in unbearable pain.
Lu An didn't want to be entangled with her. He immediately let go and said coldly, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you're a member of the Jiang Clan. Don't provoke me!"
"You!!" Jiang Xin had never been reprimanded like this before. Even her parents had never scolded her like this. She was so angry that she kicked at Lu An again!
However … Lu An's foot was raised faster than hers. Lu An didn't kick out. Instead, he placed his foot in the path of Jiang Xin's raised leg, causing Jiang Xin's calf to kick the sole of his foot heavily.
Bang!
"Ouch …"
The heavy blow to her calf caused Jiang Xin's entire body to go limp. She half-knelt on the ground and squatted in front of Lu An.
"I've already been very merciful to you." Lu An looked down at the half-kneeling Jiang Xin and said coldly, "Don't challenge my patience. If you continue to follow me, don't blame me for being impolite."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu An paid no further attention to the woman and flew towards the distance!
Jiang Xin, who was threatened by Lu An, didn't chase after him this time. When Jiang Xin realized that she was being threatened by this person, she became even angrier. She was actually frightened by this person!
After the pain in her leg subsided a little, Jiang Xin stood up from the ground. She was so angry that she kicked the ground heavily, causing a pile of rocks to fly up!
Rumble …
Damn it!
This Chu Xing deserved to die!!
Jiang Xin really wanted to kill him. No matter what, she had to make this person pay the price!
Lu An was long gone. Jiang Xin couldn't catch up with him. She immediately flew towards the city, preparing to fly back to the Chamber of Commerce to look for her father!
No matter what, she had to make her father stand up for her! Otherwise, she wouldn't stop causing trouble!
