Chapter 2952: Origin
“Go!” With a flick of his sleeve, he motioned them to leave.
“Yes.” The three of them replied with their eyes cast downward, then stood and retreated with pale faces.
The expressions on Great Elder and Jiang’s Third Elder’s faces were even uglier than Jiang Shichang’s. They had extraordinary status in the Jiang family, but now that the Patriarch sent them to the Punishment Hall, everyone in the Jiang family will know in no time that their respected Great Elder and Third Master were sent there to receive punishment.
This was a disgrace in their eyes.
After the three of them had gone, an elderly man emerged from the shadows. He sighed softly and asked Patriarch Jiang, “Patriarch, since you sent the Great Elder and the Third Master to the punishment hall, will…”
“Excessive?”
Patriarch Jiang turned his head to take a look at him. “Do you think it is excessive?” He stood with his hands clasped behind his back and looked outside with a penetrating gaze. “How many people are after the Jiang family? How many people wish to overthrow the Jiang family? Compared to other families, our Jiang family lacks dependable Strong Exponents, so we must rely on ourselves. How can the Jiang family survive in Cardinal Point City if we are not cautious?”
He sighed softly: “The Great Elder and Old Third are overly conceited, as they have suffered no losses in recent years. Now is the time to awaken them with this matter.”
He paused, turned to the elderly man, and said, “Later, bring them two bottles of medicine so they can recover well.”
“Yes.” The old man respectfully replied and then asked, “Patriarch, those people…
“We can’t touch those people for the time being.”
He spoke quietly as he watched the sight outside. “Who knows what will happen if you suddenly make a move against people about whom we have no information? We can learn from the Great Elders’ example. We must give everything a second thought. Now that the news has spread throughout Cardinal Point City, we’ll have to wait and see what happens.”
“Patriarch is wise.” The elderly man said with a smile. “Then I will retire first.” He then bowed before retiring.
At the Yuwen family’s home.
“Is it the new family who recently moved in?” Patriarch Yuwen was astounded. “I just heard that the house was already occupied. I wasn’t expecting such a figure to come here. What is their origin? Did you get the news?”
Yuwen He took a brief pause before continuing. “The outside world can not find out their origin, but I just received a letter from Second Brother, saying that several days ago, their Four Great Immortal Sect’s Tournament was disrupted because two people came down from the Immortal Ascension Ladder. However, it was said it was two men, but from his description, I think they are very similar to the two people I saw today.”
“What? The Four Great Immortal Sect’s Annual Tournament was disrupted? What’s more, the disruptors were the people who came down the Immortal Ascension Ladder?” Patriarch Yuwen pondered this information and couldn’t help but gasp.
“The Immortal Ascension Ladder connects to another immortal continent. They can only qualify to climb the Immortal Ascension Ladder when their strength is at the level of Immortal Emperor. So, these two people’s cultivation strengths have already reached the rank of Immortal Emperors?”
They were astounded. After all, Immortal Emperor Strong Exponents were considered formidable even on their side. They were well aware that although the place where the immortal gate’s Immortal Ascension Ladder led to was known as the Lower Realm, there were also a great number of incredibly powerful and talented Strong Exponents there.
Yu Wenhe had a peculiar expression on his face as he pondered, as if he didn’t know where to start.
When Patriarch Yuwen, who was sitting in the main seat, saw him like this, he asked, “What’s the matter?”
