C159

In a small teahouse near the mountain where the Heng Clan ruled, Tian Jue and little Si Ming were drinking tea. The table was quickly filled with dishes, but the two of them could not move their chopsticks.

Tian Jue looked at little Si Ming and smiled, "Do you know of this Wu Yue Mountain's Jiang Clan?"

"Wu Yue Jiang's family strives to kill the enemy during times of chaos. From the age of eighteen to the disciples of the Jiang family, all those who go onto the battlefield will be covered in white cloth and wipe their blood when they are injured. When they die, they will be wrapped up in a corpse, the Western barbarians will retreat, and only one elder will survive on the battlefield of the Jiang family. About the Jiang family, just like the poem on the white cloth:

The territory of the Central Plains was ten thousand acres, and there were two thousand disciples of the Jiang Clan.

If there are any survivors from the Jiang Clan, we will not call them bandits. " When Tian Jue heard this, he couldn't help but roll his eyes at little Si Ming. Tian Jue had finally discovered that together with little Si Ming, it was rare for him to have an opportunity to increase his knowledge.

The little Si Ming took a sip of his tea and continued, "But the question is, why did sire still humiliate the Jiang Clan when you already know it?"

"I am not targeting the Jiang Clan, but those words were indeed said for the Jiang Clan disciples. Actually, the reason I passed by Wu Yue was to help the Jiang Clan." Tian Jue also took a sip of tea and said.

Just as Tian Jue finished speaking, there was a commotion coming from outside the teahouse. The crowd outside the teahouse were uneven as they said, "Greetings, Sir."

A middle-aged man said sternly, "Everyone, please rise."

Tian Jue smiled at little Si Ming and said, "Guest has arrived."

As he finished speaking, a middle-aged man walked in aggressively. Behind him was the disciple that was kicked by Tian Jue. The disciple pointed to Tian Jue's table and said, "Uncle, it's the two of them. The one who hit me is that young boy."

The middle-aged man waved his hand. He did not wait for Tian Jue to stand up to greet him, and directly walked over to Tian Jue's table and sat down.

"Although this little brother is reasonable, he is also very rude. He insulted my family and even hurt my disciple!" The middle-aged man slammed the table in anger.

The little Si Ming sipped a mouthful of tea and looked at Tian Jue with great interest. Tian Jue stood up and cupped his fist as he said, "I am Tian Jue. I have long heard of Senior Jiang's great name. I am honored to meet you today."

He had also seen Tian Jue before. After all, after the sacrifice of his brother, the master of the Jiang family was under his control. He was the one who went to the Storm Sect to hold the banquet.

When he entered the teahouse, he did not look at Tian Jue. This time, he turned his head to take a closer look.

"I didn't know that the lord had come with unwelcome greetings and offended many people. Please forgive me." The head of the Jiang Clan hurriedly clasped his fist.

"Senior Jiang is too courteous. This is the dish and wine that I specially ordered for Senior Jiang. Senior Jiang, please use it first, then we can discuss the matter of the thieves." Tian Jue poured wine for the head of the Jiang family as he spoke.

At this time, the waiter was dumbfounded. Even the Jiang Clan disciples were dumbfounded. Wasn't this supposed to teach someone a lesson? Why did they start to eat and drink? Weren't they insulting him arrogantly previously? Why are you pouring wine now?

"Second brother, please serve another table of food and wine for the brothers of the Jiang Clan." Tian Jue looked at the waiter and said.

"Alright!" Seeing this, the waiter hurriedly smiled and put the duster on his shoulder.

After eating and drinking to his heart's content, the head of the Jiang Clan stood up and clasped his hands, "Thank you, Sir, for your hospitality."

"Since Senior Jiang has already finished eating, let's talk about these bandits!" Tian Jue stood up, cupped his fists, and said with a smile.

"Ai ~", the head of the Jiang family sighed as he heard this.

"Why does the Patriarch sigh?" To be able to make a man who had experienced countless life and death situations sigh like this, it was definitely not a small matter.

"To be honest, my lord, it is not that my Jiang Clan is incompetent, but if the Jiang Clan really wanted to exterminate this group of bandits, then it would be difficult. First of all, although the bandits were the remnants of the Western barbarians, most of them are from the Central Plains." The head of the Jiang Clan shook his head.

There were many ears and eyes, and the gathering of an army would definitely let him know. Tian Jue had also thought of this before, so he was not too surprised.

"The second point is that the southern mountains are more numerous. Before this, the bandits had received news of where they were hiding, but it was very difficult to find them."

This was something that even Tian Jue could think of but not be surprised at. And this third point, which had yet to be heard from the Jiang Clan's Patriarch, made Tian Jue unable to help himself from asking:

"Then the third point is?"

"My lord, I am useless!" As the head of the Jiang family spoke to here, his eyes started to fill with tears.

"Senior Jiang, this is?" Tian Jue didn't know what to do. He looked at the head of the Jiang Clan and then at little Si Ming. He discovered that little Si Ming was also frowning as he looked at the head of the Jiang Clan.

"Patriarch, can you allow this one to take your pulse?" little Si Ming said.

"Sir, there's no need to trouble yourself. The Great Herb Sect's elder said that I broke a single meridian. I can't connect it with my current location and will never be able to reach the strength of an inner court elder." The tears of the Jiang Clan's Patriarch still did not fall. He shook his head and said.

"Could this be the third point? "This …" Tian Jue looked incredulously at the head of the Jiang Clan.

"I don't think so. Let's just listen to the Patriarch!" Just as little Si Ming and Tian Jue wanted to say something, they looked at each other and shook their heads.

"In the Central Plains, only martial arts are respected. The Jiang family's only combat power is still me, a cripple. If we still had the power of second-rate forces, how could a mere bandit be hopeless?

However, under the jurisdiction of the Jiang Clan, when the various families saw that the Jiang Clan was not strong enough to eliminate the bandits, some of them were not willing to help, while some of them were even eyeing the Jiang Clan covetously. The families that were willing to take part only participated in the encirclement and extermination, and all of them ended in failure! " The head of the Jiang family shook his head as he spoke with a bitter face. After he finished speaking, he drank all the wine in his cup in one gulp.

"How outrageous, why doesn't the Heng Clan care about this?" Tian Jue said angrily.

"Master, this is just as the head of the Jiang family said. In the Central Plains, only the martial arts are respected, and with the Jiang family's current strength, it would be difficult for them to be ranked amongst the second-rate powers. If they can't produce enough strength within five years to intimidate these tiger-like third-rate powers, then they can take their place.

As long as the Qiu Family does not attack the Jiang Family, this matter is outside the Heng Sect's jurisdiction. " little Si Ming frowned and said.

"But now, the Jiang Clan is still a second-rate power, and the Jiang Clan is fighting against the Western barbarians to end up with something like this!" This is blatant disobedience! " Tian Jue said angrily.

"Lord, this kind of thing is rare, but the same goes for the Qiu Family. Only the Jiang Family did not act, so this matter is outside the Heng Sect's jurisdiction."

"How preposterous!" Tian Jue slammed the table in anger, causing the people around him to jump in fright.

At this moment, the teahouse was extremely quiet. Under the greetings of the Jiang Clan disciples, most of the people in the teahouse had left.

After the last person left the teahouse, Tian Jue suddenly looked at the Jiang Clan's head with a smile on his face and said: "Senior Jiang, please send a letter to each third-rate clan. The content is, each clan will bring ten experts and ten silver taels to welcome me at the Jiang Clan's city."

The smile on Tian Jue's face was rather eerie, causing the Jiang Clan's clan head to be stunned.
