C24 Tentative Wind and Rain

A storm was brewing.

Feeling that extremely powerful aura, everyone in the Jing Family trembled in fear.

Even the people of the Jing Family were almost certain that they wouldn’t survive.

"How dare you! My Black Dragon Stronghold has arrived at the doorstep of the Jing Family, but you actually don’t have anyone to receive. Do you really want my Black Dragon Stronghold to immediately massacre your Jing Family? "

The sound of thunder rang out again. This time, it came from the courtyard of the Jing Family, as all of the people from the Black Dragon Stronghold had already jumped out from the huge eagle into the Jing Family. But they didn’t saw anyone of the Jing Family, so one person immediately shouted.

The door of the Conference Hall of the Jing Family opened impressively.

Jing Yufeng brought everyone of the Jing Family out of the hall. There were some things that could not be avoided, and the Jing Family would have to face this storm sooner or later.

However, they could not help but have an expression of facing death on their faces.

Especially after they saw the lineup of the Black Dragon Stronghold, their expressions instantly became even more obvious.

It couldn't be blamed that they were not confident, it was simply because the people from the Black Dragon Stronghold were too strong.

The white-haired old man with a big face in front of them had an aura as vast as the ocean, which was the complete aura of the Sixth Level of Qi Martial Stage. Even if the others were only watching from afar, they couldn't help but feel a trace of cowardice from deep within their bones.

That was the aura of the Sixth Level of Qi Martial Stage, which was much stronger than Jing Yufeng's cultivation of the Fourth Level of Qi Martial Stage.

There was no doubt that this person was the clan elder of the Black Dragon Stronghold: Zhao Xi.

Behind Zhao Xi, there were two elders of the Black Dragon Stronghold who were at the Fifth Level of Qi Martial Stage.

This lineup was much stronger than that of the Jing Family.

Most importantly, Huang Tong, the Clan Chief of the Black Dragon Stronghold did not even come.

The expressions of everyone of the Jing Family became extremely heavy. The powerful lineup of the Black Dragon Stronghold was sufficient to prove that they were most likely here to massacre the Jing Family. But right now, the Jing Family only had Jing Yufeng who was at the Fourth Level of Qi Martial Stage. He would not resist their attack.

Jing Yunxiao's face also twitched a few times, but he still took a few steps forward without being humble or haughty, and said with a stern voice, "I am the family head of the Jing Family, Jing Yufeng. I wonder why you come here with such a great fanfare?”

"Why?"

Zhao Xi immediately laughed coldly, "Jing Yufeng, right? You old thing pretend not to know, right? Very good."

After he finished laughing coldly, Zhao Xi's aura suddenly soared and swept like a tidal wave, fiercely rushing towards the people of the Jing Family.

This momentum was extremely powerful.

Jing Yufeng was barely able to withstand it, but the rest of the people of the Jing Family were in trouble.

All of them hugged their heads as they shouted.

Zhao Xi's aura immediately made their heads hurt, and made them feel that to live is no better than to die.

"Now do you know why my Black Dragon Stronghold came to your Jing Family?"

Zhao Xi laughed sinisterly.

Jing Yunxiao used the aura of the Fourth Level of Qi Martial Stage to resist the pressure of Zhao Xi, but his entire body still could not help but be drenched in sweat the size of a bean. A gleam of violence appeared in his eyes as he sighed sadly in his heart.

He was once the First Martial General of the Imperial City, and his cultivation of the Spiritual Martial Stage was so ferocious.

But now, he was actually pressured to this extent by a Martial Cultivator of Qi Martial Stage.

Jing Yufeng clenched his teeth, and said coldly, "Gu Qing of your Black Dragon Stronghold wanted to exterminate my Jing Family with the Luo Family, my Jing Family was only rebelling, what fault does my Jing Family have?"

"What fault?"

Zhao Xi raised his eyebrows, and then laughed out loud, "No matter what the reason is, you killed the people of my Black Dragon Stronghold, this is your fault. And your Jing Family will also definitely pay the price for the sins you have committed."

Zhao Xi increased the intensity of his aura once again, causing the rest of the Jing Family behind Jing Yufeng to fall onto the ground, unable to take it anymore.

Jing Yufeng also felt his legs trembling, and looked like he also could not take it anymore.

He did not expect that Zhao Xi would be able to defeat all of their Jing Family members just by suppressing them with his aura. It had to be said that the gap between them was just too huge. In addition, this also proved that the Jing Family today had almost no chance of resisting.

Not a bit.

Jing Yufeng forced himself to stabilize his body and asked, "Then what do you guys want to do?"

Seeing that Jing Yufeng seemed to give in, Zhao Xi finally retracted his aura and said, "I have three conditions. As long as your Jing Family agrees, not only will my Black Dragon Stronghold not massacre your Jing Family, I will even let you be under the protection of the Black Dragon Stronghold in the future."

His words sounded good, but Jing Yufeng was not happy.

The three conditions were absolutely not ordinary.

"What conditions?"

Jing Yunxiao asked coldly.

Zhao Xi smiled indifferently, and said, "First, my Black Dragon Stronghold will take all of the mineral veins your Jing Family has discovered. Second, since then, your Jing Family will listen to my Black Dragon Stronghold's orders and become my Black Dragon Stronghold's subsidiary power. Third, hand over that brat called Jing Yunxiao, because my Clan Chief is very interested at him. As for you, I will cut off the hand you used to kill Gu Qing.”

Zhang Xuan spoke of the three conditions in one go.

But the more Jing Yufeng and the rest of the Jing Family listened, the more furious they got.

As for the first condition, although the value of the mineral veins was not cheap, they could give the Black Dragon Stronghold, as the Jing Family would not necessarily take them as their own.

However, Jing Yufeng would definitely not agree to the second and third conditions.

Becoming a subsidiary power of the Black Dragon Stronghold was equivalent to burning, killing, plundering, and committing all sorts of crimes like the Black Dragon Stronghold.

As for handing Jing Yunxiao over and even cutting off one of Jing Yufeng's hands was even more impossible.

"Family head, we can't agree to them."

"Right, we would rather die than become the flunkies of killing of the Black Dragon Stronghold."

The rest of the Jing Family all expressed their opinions.

In their eyes, their children had already been secretly sent away. As long as their bloodlines were preserved, they would die without regrets.

Jing Yufeng would naturally not agree, as he rather die than submit. He smiled, "Zhao Xi, you heard it too. Even if we, the people of the Jing Family are going to die, we will never be associated with bandits like you Black Dragon Stronghold. If you want to kill me or cut me up, then just do. There’s no need for talking.”

They would rather die gloriously than drag out an ignoble existence.

Zhao Xi was not angered by this, but instead laughed even more sinisterly.

"If you don't want to be associated with my Black Dragon Stronghold, then I will make you submit to my Black Dragon Stronghold. Since you're not afraid of death, then aren't you afraid of the death of your descendants? Do you think that my Black Dragon Stronghold does not know of the fact that you secretly transferred your Jing Family's descendants to the Myriad Demon Ridge? How naive."

When these words came out, Jing Yufeng and the rest of the people of the Jing Family gasped.

Zhao Xi already said clearly enough. The Black Dragon Stronghold already knew where the disciples of the Jing Family were hiding. The Jing Family originally thought that they could preserve some of their bloodlines, but it seems like they had completely failed.

"What did you do to them?"

Jing Yufeng asked coldly.

"Humph, you will know in an hour. Within this hour, you can think about whether or not you want to submit to my Black Dragon Stronghold. If you don't agree after an hour, then don't blame my Black Dragon Stronghold for being impolite. Ha-ha."

Zhao Xi laughed, and then called for his subordinates to get him some tables, chairs and meat. Then he sat down naturally in the courtyard of the Jing Family, and started eating with both meat and wine.

Jing Yufeng's mind was filled with rage. He desperately looked in the direction of the Myriad Demon Mountain Range and muttered to himself in his heart, "Even if Xiao is fine, I hope he doesn't come back. It's best if he stay away from Red Leaf Town as far away as possible."
