The Qi Cultivation Emperor Who Snatches Brides, do you think you're funny?

Upon hearing Tianyi's words, Jiang Yu's eyes widened in shock, his mouth agape for a long time.

He never expected that the patriarch's intention was to go directly to Linlang Academy and block its gates; in his view, this was simply a fantasy.

"Senior, are you kidding me? Going to block the gate of Linlang Academy? That's a renowned academy of the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty, filled with geniuses from all sides, and many powerful elders are stationed there. Aren't we just courting death by doing this?" Jiang Yu stammered, his voice trembling slightly with surprise.

Seeing Jiang Yu's shocked expression, Tianyi couldn't help but smile, patted him on the shoulder and said, "I'm not joking. There must be a reason why the ancestor arranged it this way. Don't underestimate our own strength. Besides, we came here to take revenge, so we can't afford to hesitate."

Jiang Yu swallowed hard, a bitter smile creeping onto his face. He knew all too well that the Linglang Academy held an extraordinary position within the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the holy land of cultivation in the entire dynasty.

In the past, several princes of the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty chose to study at the Linlang Academy, demonstrating its importance. The academy was a gathering place for top-tier geniuses from all over the Immortal Dynasty and even other spheres of influence. These young talents, who had displayed extraordinary cultivation abilities from a young age, were seen as the future hope of their families and sects and were sent to the Linlang Academy hoping to receive better training and reach even greater heights in their cultivation.

The faculty of Linlang Academy is incredibly strong. The elders are all figures who can shake the world with a stomp of their feet. Not only are their own cultivation levels unfathomable, reaching a realm that inspires awe, but they are also thoroughly familiar with various cultivation methods, supernatural powers, and secret techniques. Even a casual remark from them can greatly benefit their disciples, causing their cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.

The cultivation resources within the academy are astonishingly abundant. Rare spiritual materials and elixirs are as common as ordinary stones, readily available everywhere. As long as disciples have sufficient ability and contribution points, they can freely exchange for and use them.

And those exquisitely decorated cultivation chambers, containing spiritual energy so dense it was almost tangible, that a day of cultivation inside was probably equivalent to months or even years of arduous training outside.

More importantly, Linlang Academy enjoys extremely high prestige and influence throughout the entire cultivation world.

It has intricate connections with various forces, and other powerful forces often send envoys to visit and exchange ideas, request cooperation, or hope to allow their juniors to study at the academy.

It can be said that Linlang Academy is like a bright pearl, inlaid on the vast land of the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty, radiating dazzling light. Its stable position and powerful strength are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

“Senior, I know we’re here for revenge, but the Linlang Academy isn’t one we can mess with. If we rush in to block their gate, let alone succeed in getting revenge, we might be kicked out by the elders as soon as we get there, or even… our lives might be in danger.” Jiang Yu said worriedly. Although he also had a strong desire for revenge, he couldn’t help but feel intimidated by the powerful Linlang Academy.

Jiang Yu had to admit that he chickened out for a moment.

The Seven Star Immortal Dynasty is, after all, someone else's territory.

And Linlang Academy holds such a special position in the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty.

Tianyi frowned slightly as he looked at Jiang Yu's worried and timid expression. His expression turned serious as he slowly said, "Jiang Yu, listen carefully. In the eyes of others, the Linlang Academy may be an unapproachable and unprovoked entity, and the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty may have a huge power that makes people fearful. But in the eyes of the Ancestor, they are nothing."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu was startled and stared at Tian Yi with wide eyes, his face full of disbelief.

He knew that his ancestor was powerful, but for him to dare to so disregard the Seven Star Immortal Dynasty and Linlang Academy was still beyond his imagination.

Tian paused, then continued, "You don't know yet, do you? Not long ago, the Ancestor wiped out the Jiang family cleanly and swiftly, leaving no trace. The enemies you've been searching for, your stepmother and your half-brother, are now right here at Linlang Academy." Upon hearing this, Jiang Yu was struck dumb, frozen in place. His expression first froze, then filled with shock, his mouth agape, unable to close for a long time.

His mind went blank as if it had suddenly exploded. It took him a while to come back to his senses. He subconsciously swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva, his voice hoarse from extreme shock, and asked, "Senior, you...you're telling the truth? The Ancestor really wiped out the Jiang family? This...how is this possible!"

Jiang Yu's heart was filled with turmoil. In his memory, the Jiang family, although not a top-tier family, was still a powerful and influential force in the region.

The family has many experts and various forces intertwined. To destroy it would require an immense power and a fierce battle.

But listening to Tianyi's words, he realized that the ancestor had accomplished it so easily, which was hard for him to accept for a moment. At the same time, he had a new and almost awe-inspiring understanding of the ancestor's strength.

"Of course it's true. How could I joke about something like this with you?" Tianyi said with certainty, looking at Jiang Yu's shocked expression. "The Ancestor's methods are far beyond our imagination. The Jiang family is like an ant in front of the Ancestor, completely vulnerable."

Jiang Yu's body trembled slightly as he recalled his time in the Jiang family, both the good and the bad memories flooding his mind.

He hated his stepmother and his half-brother to the core.

Jiang Yu stood there, his body still trembling slightly. Tianyi's words kept echoing in his mind, and the shock in his heart was like a surging tide, one wave after another.

Despite Tianyi's certainty, he still felt as if it were all an absurd dream, and he couldn't quite believe that the Jiang family had really been wiped out by their ancestor.

In his past memories, the tall gatehouse of the Jiang family, the well-arranged courtyards, and the dignified faces of the family members coming and going were all familiar yet unfamiliar to him in his childhood.

As a child, he was driven out of the family early on due to his stepmother's exclusion and his younger brother's scheming, and was forced to struggle to survive alone in the outside world.

In those years, he watched other children grow up peacefully under the protection of their families, while he himself suffered from wind and rain, cold looks and hardships. His sense of belonging to the Jiang family was worn away by the daily suffering.

Therefore, when he learned of the Jiang family's destruction, he did not feel the grief of losing his home, but rather a sense of the impermanence of life and awe of his ancestor's unfathomable strength.

However, even so, the sudden disappearance of the Jiang family, the place that held so many complex emotions for him in his youth, was still hard for him to accept. It was as if an inseparable part of his past had been forcibly severed.

"Forget it, let the Jiang family be wiped out."

Jiang Yu muttered to himself, feeling touched that the ancestor had actually taken action personally.
