Excessive ferocity due to caution

The group, who were about to succeed, were suddenly blocked by a force, and were furious. They looked towards the distant sky.

It didn't matter if they hadn't looked; once they could see the people in the distance clearly, their eyes immediately became clear.

The other party... is from the Jiang family!

An old man flew in with a large group of people.

It was Jiang Muming!

Upon seeing the Jiang family, everyone immediately became much more nervous.

What's going on today?

Why did the Jiang family suddenly come over?

"Excuse me, senior, what brings you here?"

Although these people did not recognize Jiang Muming, seeing that he was accompanied by so many adults familiar with the Jiang family, anyone with a little discernment would immediately know that the old man in front of them was no ordinary person!

The old man glanced indifferently at the man bowing to him and ignored him.

Jiang Muming walked straight to the teleportation array and carefully examined it.

The energy inside was depleted and on the verge of collapse, and Zhao Yi, who was trapped in the teleportation array, was also in an extremely dangerous situation!

"Bring me my natal gemstone!"

The old man waved his hand, and a middle-aged man following behind him hesitated.

"this……"

"Elder, this natal gemstone is no ordinary item; it concerns your destiny. If anything goes wrong..."

Jiang Muming glared and said:

"This is a matter of life and death, go get it right now!!"

Seeing Jiang Muming get angry, the middle-aged man didn't dare to delay and quickly transformed into a streak of light, disappearing from the spot.

The people nearby looked at each other, wondering what the adults of the Jiang family were up to.

Not long after, the middle-aged man returned to Sky Plaza, holding a golden stone in his hand.

The stone's surface gleamed, making it extraordinary and imbued with a mysterious power!

After obtaining the stone, the old man immediately activated all his divine power, drawing out the purest power within the stone to help stabilize the teleportation array!

"Protect me!"

"Don't let any scoundrels bother me!"

After saying this, Jiang Muming went all out and used the power of his natal metal stone to maintain the teleportation array!

The middle-aged man watching from a distance felt quite uncomfortable.

He knew the old man was risking his life to protect the guy on the other side of the teleportation array.

Although he was not the head of the Jiang family, he held a high position and great power within the family.

After today, the old man's fate is basically sealed.

The loss of a guardian elder in the Jiang family is a great loss for him.

Unlike the Li family, the core of the Jiang family is a Heavenly God Cauldron.

That cauldron contains all the fortune of the Jiang family throughout history!

The Guardian Elder also has extremely strict requirements regarding physical constitution!

Although Jiang Muming's strength is not among the top in the Jiang family, his bloodline is extremely rare, which is why he was able to become the guardian of the cauldron!

He protected the Jiang family's cauldron for three hundred years, and his merits were greater than the heavens. In the Jiang family, even the head of the family had to bow his head and call him Second Uncle.

Today, Jiang Muming is clearly willing to trade his own life for Zhao Yi's.

The middle-aged man knew Jiang Muming's temper.

He knew he couldn't persuade Jiang Muming, nor could he stop him.

That piece of gold stone has been imbued with the fortune of the Heavenly God Cauldron for three hundred years. It contains the power of great karma and can stabilize the teleportation array from collapsing!

But stabilizing the teleportation array requires too much energy!

It took a long time and the combined strength of the four major families to open the portal to the Infinite Trial!

Now, the old man has borrowed power from the great karma within his natal stone, which he will have to repay in the future!

With the elderly person's strength, it's simply impossible for them to repay the debt.

Vast divine power was continuously drawn from the metal and stone, like a boundless ocean, like a deep abyss!

One after another, golden divine lights shot into the sky, a total of forty-nine, standing around the old man, connecting the stars above and the earth and rocks below.

Many long snakes formed from the convergence of divine power appeared from these golden pillars of light and entered the collapsing teleportation array, successfully stabilizing it!

Outsiders were unaware that Jiang Muming's power was borrowed. When they saw the old man stabilize the teleportation array with his own strength, they were so frightened that they retreated thousands of meters!

"What terrifying power is this?!"

"Could it be a reclusive old monster from the Jiang family?"

"As expected, the four clans of the capital have unfathomable depths of power. The Jiang family has kept a low profile all these years, leading outsiders to believe they had declined... But now, seeing them, their power is truly terrifying!"

"But why would the Jiang family help Zhao Yi?"

Gazing at the forty-nine beams of divine light shooting into the sky, many people in the Sky Plaza wore extremely grim and complex expressions!

They don't understand!

What merit or ability does Zhao Yi possess to warrant the assistance of such a powerful figure?!

What exactly is the relationship between Zhao Yi and the Jiang family?

Various mysteries began to sprout and take root in their hearts, and some people who originally wanted to use Zhao Yi's life to curry favor with the Li family underwent subtle changes at this moment.

Helping the Li family kill Zhao Yi means offending the Jiang family.

But they've offended the Jiang family, will the Li family help them?

Everyone knew the answer in their hearts.

In the distance, the Li family member watched the old man helping Zhao Yi reconnect the collapsing teleportation array, his fists clenched tightly!

Damn!

When did those Jiang family guys reappear?

And such a powerful character has appeared?

He hesitated for a long time, then reluctantly took one last deep look at the location of the teleportation array, put away the blood-text scroll, and turned to leave quickly!

Today, the Li family is preparing for something very important. He has no powerful backing, and if he tries to stop the Jiang family, he will only suffer a terrible fate!

What happened today is beyond his control; he only needs to go back and report it!

In the distance, in an inconspicuous little corner of Sky Plaza, two figures, one tall and one short, stood.

The place was so secluded, and they were dressed so simply, that no one noticed them at all.

"Brother Zheng, how do you know Jiang Muming will definitely go to rescue Zhao Yi?"

The short boy looked up at the man who was half a head taller than him and asked, puzzled.

The man gazed at the dazzling pillar of light between heaven and earth and smiled slightly.

"Because Senior Jiang is that kind of person."

"It's been like this for hundreds of years."

"A chivalrous young man, living life to the fullest."

"He may be old, but his heart is not."

After saying this, the man put on the hood of his clothes and turned to leave.

"Brother Bai, let's go."

The boy turned his head in surprise:

"Won't you take another look?"

"What if the Li family comes and causes trouble?"

The man said:

"The inside man gave us the information."

"The Li family... is preparing for a major event recently."

"They don't have time to deal with Zhao Yi."

"It's even less likely that we'd spare the energy to offend the Jiang family."

"Didn't you see that the Li family members who just arrived only carried a scroll?"

The boy suddenly understood, and after one last, somewhat uneasy glance at the pillars of light and the portals behind them, he followed the man away, trotting off with a happy squeak...

P.S.: Second update.

Hmm... I didn't think of anything witty to say today.

Goodnight everyone!
