When Feng Qingwu hurried back to the Jiang family, it was already dark, but the main hall of the Jiang family was brightly lit. The people sitting on the main seats seemed to be the head of the Jiang family and Mrs. Jiang, while Jiang Zicheng was sitting aside. .
The whole main hall of the Jiang family was filled with a depressing atmosphere, because the face of Jiang Zicheng sitting aside looked quite gloomy, which actually made the head of the Jiang family in the Jindan period a little restless.
As for the middle of the main hall, there was a kneeling servant of the Jiang family. His back was covered with bloody marks from whips. It was extremely terrifying and had even formed a layer of blood scab, looking as ferocious as a twisted snake.
The pain was clearly unbearable, but they remained motionless, not daring to make the slightest move, because...
"You can all come back, why can't you bring me back?"
"What does it mean that after entering Duobao Pavilion, people disappear?"
"Duobao Pavilion gave an explanation, saying that there was an accident, so you don't know how to ask questions or find ways to find someone?"
Jiang Zicheng's voice suddenly sounded in the main hall, and there was no anger in his tone, but more cold hostility and murderous intent.
The head of the Jiang family, who had been sitting silently on the throne, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly said: "Zicheng, these servants have been slaves of the Jiang family for many years, and their loyalty is truly admirable."
"This time Luochuan City is hosting an alchemist gathering. Too many monks are pouring into Luochuan City. Although our Jiang family is the second largest family in Luochuan City, we cannot compare with those monks."
"Zi Le is just a mortal, wandering around when the streets are full of monks. Even if she is protected by the servants of the Jiang family, it is still very dangerous. I have long advised her not to go..."
"Besides, these servants of the Jiang family have already been punished. Zicheng, don't make things difficult for them anymore. This is not-"
But before the head of the Jiang family could finish his long speech, Jiang Zicheng looked up directly. There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was not looking at his father, but a stranger.
Just meeting Jiang Zicheng's eyes, the head of the Jiang family shut up in an instant, as if he remembered something.
He murmured, then stopped talking, and was completely speechless. Even his body was shaking uncontrollably. It was not until Mrs. Jiang pressed the back of his hand that he regained his composure.
Jiang Zicheng noticed this, but he just looked away and said bluntly: "So what, these people are dead, nothing can happen to my sister!"
Today's Jiang Zicheng doesn't look like the fool he was in Tianxuan Sect, let alone Feng Qingwu. I'm afraid even the disciples who are close to him within the sect will be frightened by Jiang Zicheng's unfamiliar appearance.
Violent, cold, like a cold-blooded beast, in short - it even seems to have a faint sense of inhuman fear.
Just when the entire main hall of the Jiang family fell into deathly silence, there was suddenly the sound of chaotic footsteps coming from outside, followed by a shout from far to near.
"Master, madam, young master——"
"Ms. Zi Le, she is finally back!"
When these words came, Jiang Zicheng stood up suddenly and even used his spiritual power to sneak to the door.
He grabbed the Jiang family servant's shoulder and asked in a deep voice: "What did you say, my sister is back? Are you sure you are right?"
Even if Jiang Zicheng knew that Feng Qingwu was not only one level higher than him in cultivation and had entered the eighth level of foundation building, but even his combat power was several blocks ahead of him, but——
She is now disguised as a mortal, and the Xia family is looking for her with great fanfare. There are many people outside, so they don't want to reveal their identity and cause more trouble.
There is a high probability that Feng Qingwu will not reveal her cultivation, so with her exposed mortal status, there is no guarantee that nothing will happen. Even if it is only a small possibility, it must be avoided at least.
Just when Jiang Zicheng asked, another set of footsteps followed, accompanied by a soft voice.
"Brother, don't worry."
Hearing this, Jiang Zicheng immediately raised his head, and the next moment he saw a woman in a green shirt walking in from the gate not far away.
The rust-red door has complicated patterns, which are simple and heavy. It makes a slight creaking sound when it is pushed open, but it seems to reveal an inexplicable meaning in the night.
The cold and silent moonlight fell from high in the sky, spread all over the ground, and illuminated the rust-red door. And the woman, who was slender and like a weak willow supporting the wind, seemed to have stepped on the moon.
Jiang Zicheng was slightly stunned, suppressing the joy in his heart, and said seriously: "Sister, you are finally back. What happened, and how did you disappear?"
"I just saw some interesting things in Duobao Pavilion, so I left early, but I didn't expect that I got separated from the servants. I didn't find my way back until now."
Feng Qingwu explained casually.
Such a reason would be fine if explained to the head of the Jiang family, but in the eyes of Jiang Zicheng, it would be quite perfunctory.
Feng Qingwu also saw the confusion in his eyes, but didn't say much. He just stretched out his hand, palm down, and then pressed it slightly, hinting to Jiang Zicheng not to ask any more questions for the time being.
Seeing this, Jiang Zicheng nodded slightly, turned to look at the head of the Jiang family and said, "Father, since sister is back, I will not pursue this matter."
"But, these servants of the Jiang family, I don't want to see them in the Jiang family tomorrow. After all, I hope my father can understand one thing -"
"Loyalty is indeed good, and loyal servants are rare, but no matter how loyal you are, raising some loyal trash will have no effect!"
Jiang Zicheng said coldly.
No matter what happened to Feng Qingwu.
However, the Jiang Zile she is pretending to be now is the young lady of the Jiang family.
Something happened to the young lady, and the group of servants who followed her out as guards were dismissed by Duobao Pavilion without even looking for her.
Regardless of whether there are other reasons, this alone proves that these servants do not take Miss Jiang's seriously, and it also proves that these servants are not doing things well.
Hearing Jiang Zicheng's unkind words, the face of the head of the Jiang family suddenly turned ugly. Just when Feng Qingwu thought he could not hold back his anger——
"...Yes, Zicheng is right."
Unexpectedly, the head of the Jiang family responded weakly after taking a deep breath.
This approach made Feng Qingwu even more surprised. She subconsciously glanced at the head of the Jiang family and then at Jiang Zicheng.
Recalling Xia Henghe's words before, her mind was flooded with thoughts.
Putting aside the attitude of the head of the Jiang family, just looking at Jiang Zicheng's behavior these days is already extraordinary.
'Jiang family, there is a problem...'
'I'm afraid what Xia Henghe said is true, but what does this have to do with Jiang Zicheng? '
