Wu Shattered Star River

#21 - Chapter 21 No Looking Back

A small courtyard within the Jiang Family's Elder Council.

This was the most heavily guarded place in Jiang Family Town, with a full twenty people stationed here.

Among them were ten experts at the ninth level of the Purple Mansion Realm, and the remaining ten were all warriors above the sixth level of the Purple Mansion Realm.

Inside a room, three women were dressing Jiang Li.

Although eleven-year-old Jiang Li had not yet fully matured, she was already a beauty in the making.

Especially her eyes, as pure as a baby's, were exceptionally beautiful.

Today, dressed in a red wedding robe, adorned with gold and silver, she appeared even more charming.

Having been confined for half a month, Jiang Li had lost some weight.

Her expression was sorrowful, and tears welled up in her eyes, making her look pitiful.

The three women beside her were all coaxing her, telling her what to do later and what to do when she went to Yunmeng City…

Jiang Li remained silent, sitting with her head lowered.

The three women grew somewhat anxious.

If Jiang Li didn't cooperate today and angered Han Shiqi, Jiang Xiaotian would definitely not spare them.

"Jiang Li, don't wear such a deathly face!"

One of the women snapped, pointing at Jiang Li with one hand on her hip, saying, "What's wrong with marrying into the Han family?

You'll have good food and drinks, and your brother will also receive great benefits because of it.

If you can please Master Han, perhaps he will directly recruit your brother into the Yunmeng Pavilion, and your brother will soar to the sky, becoming a generation of strong men."

"That's right!"

Another woman followed, advising, "We women, sooner or later, have to marry someone.

What difference does it make who you marry?

Look at me, married to your Uncle Gu, I've never enjoyed any blessings in my life, I'm exhausted all day long, and it's hard to even buy a nice dress.

If my daughter were as beautiful as you, and Master Han took a liking to her, I would have lived a life of luxury long ago."

The three women chattered on and on, but Jiang Li still didn't say anything, with no smile on her face.

After waiting for a long time, the three women were tired of talking, and she finally raised her head and said, "I want to see my brother.

If I don't see him, I won't marry!"

That night, Jiang Han raided Jiang Family Town, shouting Jiang Li's name.

Jiang Li heard him.

She was in a nearby woodshed, with her hands and feet tied and her mouth gagged.

She heard the screams of Jiang Long and the others, as well as the screams of the woman who had been guarding her before.

She also saw the courtyard where she had been imprisoned before burst into flames.

She didn't know what had happened, but she guessed that Jiang Han must have wanted to save her.

She was very worried about Jiang Han, so she stubbornly insisted on seeing Jiang Han once.

The three women exchanged glances.

One of them hesitated for a moment, then said with a stern face, "Let me tell you the truth, your brother has been tied up.

The Third Elder is afraid that he will cause trouble today."

Another woman nodded and said, "Your brother made a scene a few days ago, and the Third Elder was furious.

If you don't cooperate, your brother will be flayed alive today."

"That's right…"

The remaining woman said with unusual firmness, "The Third Elder said that if you don't cooperate today, he will cut off your brother's hands and feet and put his body into a jar.

Then, he will put in a nest of flesh-eating ants and let the flesh-eating ants slowly gnaw at his body, letting him be bitten to death alive by the flesh-eating ants."

"Ah? No, no!"

Jiang Li was so frightened that her pretty face turned pale.

She grabbed one of the women's hands in fear, and tears fell silently.

She said with a sob, "Don't hurt my brother, don't!

I'll listen to you, I'll marry…"

"That's right!"

The three women showed satisfied smiles, and one of them comforted, "Don't worry, as long as you honestly listen to us, you'll marry Master Han, then your brother will become Master Han's brother-in-law.

How dare the Third Elder touch him?

Isn't that the logic."

Jiang Li was simple-minded and was easily coaxed by a few words.

However, the tears in her eyes still couldn't be suppressed from falling.

She turned her gaze to the window and murmured, "Brother, you must take good care of yourself, you must."

At noon, a grand banquet was held in the Jiang Family's Elder Council.

Jiang Xiaotian sent people out to purchase many delicacies and seafood, and also bought hundreds of jars of fine wine.

The elders of various clans and the representatives of small clans offered many precious congratulatory gifts.

Jiang Li was brought out.

Han Shiqi had only seen her portrait before, but after seeing Jiang Li in person, especially seeing Jiang Li's clear black and white eyes like pearls, he couldn't stop smiling.

He had no other hobbies in his life, and he loved young loli and catamites, especially enjoying slowly training and nurturing them.

That's right, he not only liked women but also liked men.

The handsome young man beside him, on the surface, was his disciple, but in reality, he was his concubine…

At this moment, his disciple, Han Renfeng, saw Jiang Li, and a trace of jealousy and hatred flashed in his eyes.

He knew Han Shiqi best.

Jiang Li's watery eyes were too beautiful, and they had hooked away Han Shiqi's soul.

If it weren't for the fact that they were in Jiang Family Town at this moment, Han Shiqi would have gone straight to the bridal chamber long ago.

A feast was eaten, and the host and guests were happy.

Jiang Han did not appear, which made the smile on Jiang Xiaotian's face a bit thicker.

As long as Jiang Han didn't appear in Jiang Family Town, even if he ambushed him on the road, it would have nothing to do with him, and the big stone hanging in his heart could be considered to have fallen.

"Jiang Han won't not appear, will he?"

"Hey, I came here for nothing today…"

"It can't be blamed on him, he is only in the Purple Mansion Realm.

There are too many strong people today, and if he is not stupid, he will definitely not come to die."

"That makes sense.

With his talent, if he hides and cultivates for ten years, he will definitely become a strong man.

A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late!"

In many inns and restaurants in Jiang Family Town, and even in the mountains and forests outside, there were discussions everywhere.

Especially the people watching the excitement in the mountains and forests outside, their stomachs were rumbling with hunger, and they were looking forward to it, but they didn't wait for Jiang Han, and they couldn't help but feel unhappy.

After eating and drinking enough.

Han Shiqi, surrounded by everyone, slowly boarded the carriage.

Jiang Li was taken to the second carriage, and Jiang Xiaotian sent two middle-aged women with some martial arts skills to accompany her, ensuring that she would not run away or commit suicide.

All the warriors of Yunmeng Pavilion got into the carriage, and the carriage left the Elder Hall and slowly drove towards the south gate of Jiang Family Town.

Jiang Xiaotian led the elders and representatives of various clans to follow behind, sending them all the way, preparing to send them to the gate of the town.

Many people in the inns and restaurants followed behind, and many people began to feel nervous and expectant.

Han Shiqi was about to take Jiang Li away, and if Jiang Han didn't appear, then he shouldn't appear today.

The five carriages drove out of the city gate of Jiang Family Town.

Han Shiqi, supported by Han Renfeng, walked out of the carriage again and waved to Jiang Xiaotian and the elders of various clans who were seeing him off to express his gratitude.

The villagers in the nearby mountains and forests stretched their necks and looked around, their eyes full of expectation.

"Brother, you must take good care of yourself!"

Inside the second carriage, Jiang Li lay on the window of the carriage, looking in the direction of Jiang Family Town.

Her big eyes were full of longing and expectation, hoping to see Jiang Han's figure, hoping to see Jiang Han one last time.

Unfortunately…

There were nearly a hundred people standing outside the town, but she didn't see that familiar figure.

Her eyes gradually dimmed, and tears began to slide down uncontrollably, washing away two white marks on her face from the rouge.

"哗 ~"

Suddenly, a burst of hubbub sounded in the distance, and then the hubbub quickly spread out.

The nearby mountains and forests and the people at the town entrance were like a pot that had exploded, becoming unusually noisy.

"It's Jiang Han, Jiang Han is here!"

Jiang Li vaguely heard a voice, and she excitedly lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked into the distance.

When she saw a black-clothed teenager with a narrow saber on his back on the road, walking step by step from a distance, the tears in her eyes burst out like a flood from a burst dam.

Under the gaze of hundreds of people, Jiang Han walked slowly with his war blade on his back.

His waist was straight, his steps were firm, his eyes were indifferent, and his expression was resolute, like a moth flying to a flame.

Without hesitation!
