Wu Shattered Star River

“Ugh…”

The moment the Second Elder of the Xu Clan spoke, Jiang Han acted, killing him with a single strike. The entire scene was stunned.

Lei Yun and Lei Qu had thought Jiang Han would ask a few questions to gauge the Xu Clan's attitude and willingness to offer an explanation.

They expected Jiang Han to only act if the Xu Clan refused to give an explanation, but they never imagined he would just start fighting.

Many scouts from various major forces in the Eastern Region were nearby, and they were all dumbfounded. The Second Elder of the Xu Clan? An absolute high-level figure in the Xu Clan, killed just like that?

Had the Thunderfall Clan decided to start a war with the Xu Clan? Was Lei Nishang determined to rebel?

They had to know that Tenth Lord was a direct descendant of Xiong Guanshan. If Lei Nishang started a war with Tenth Lord, it would be equivalent to declaring war on Xiong Guanshan.

The Thunderfall Clan soldiers were stunned. Many of them didn't know Jiang Han's identity.

Jiang Han had used the Heavenly Transformation Technique to look like a member of the Thunderfall Clan, but these soldiers didn't recognize him, including some mid- to high-level officers. They were shocked by Jiang Han's ruthlessness and even more amazed by his strength.

The Second Elder of the Xu Clan was a renowned expert of many years, a half-step Dao Ancestor, yet he was instantly killed!

The Xu Clan was also stunned. The Great Elder's eyes widened in disbelief.

He knew the Second Elder's combat strength. A Saint Ruler couldn't possibly kill him instantly, so there was only one possibility: a Dao Ancestor had attacked.

Jiang Han was a man, so it couldn't be Lei Nishang. Could it be Shadow Assassin?

The Great Elder quickly reacted. He flashed back into the courtyard. Being so close, he was afraid this mysterious expert would attack again and kill him with a single strike.

“Whoosh!”

Almost at the same time, the Xu Clan King and a group of Saint Rulers were alarmed and flew towards this place from the largest manor within Xu Fortress.

Jiang Han glanced up, not caring at all, and walked inside with his blade. Lei Yun and Lei Qu quickly followed, while the ordinary soldiers didn't dare to enter without Lei Yun's orders.

“Whoosh!”

Liu Fangfei and Lu Yu arrived. They had sensed the situation here from afar, and after discovering that Jiang Han had attacked, they sighed slightly.

They didn't fly into Xu Fortress but landed on a nearby high-rise, watching the development of the situation.

Now that Jiang Han had taken action, this matter couldn't be resolved peacefully. It all depended on how big it would become in the end!

Jiang Han and the two others entered Xu Fortress. Lei Yun and Lei Qu had been in front before, but now Jiang Han was leading the way, with Lei Yun and Lei Qu behind him.

The Xu Clan King locked his gaze on Jiang Han. He had sensed everything that had just happened. As a Dao Ancestor, he could see through Jiang Han's disguise.

However, because Jiang Han's face was covered in tattoos, he didn't react at first. After taking a closer look, his eyes narrowed, and he asked, "Are you Jiang Han?"

Jiang Han didn't hide his identity. After all, Dao Ancestors could see through him. Even if they didn't recognize him, they could easily guess.

He put away the Radiant Void Blade, put his hands behind his back, and said to the Xu Clan King, "Lei Qi and Lei Xu are my friends. I've come to demand an explanation!"

“Whoa!”

A clamor immediately erupted inside and outside Xu Fortress. The Xu Clan King's words had spread, and since Jiang Han didn't deny it, his identity was confirmed.

Who was Jiang Han?

The most famous person in the Four Regions right now, who single-handedly reversed the situation, saved the citizens of the Four Regions from fire and water, snatched Yao Ao back from the Grim Reaper, and destroyed Cang Xunni's physical body with one move.

Many cultivators had been wondering who was so fierce, directly killing the Xu Clan's Second Elder without saying a word.

After learning it was Jiang Han, no one had any more questions.

Over the years, how many great clans had Jiang Han messed with? How many experts had he killed? For ordinary cultivators, the Xu Clan was a supreme and powerful family, one of the highest existences in the Eastern Region.

But for Jiang Han now… it was nothing!

The Xu Clan King's expression became extremely solemn. Looking at Jiang Han, he even had the urge to flee.

He was no match for Jiang Han, not even close.

How many Dao Ancestors had Jiang Han killed over the years? At least thirty or forty, some of them Dao Ancestor Realm level six, and he had destroyed Cang Xunni's physical body with one move.

He hadn't fought Jiang Han, but he knew that if he faced Jiang Han, he would be instantly killed.

He had cursed Xu He ten thousand times in his heart. He never expected that Lei Qi and Lei Xu, two Emperor level cultivators, would be Jiang Han's friends? Jiang Han had come all the way from the Northern Region to the Eastern Region with his blade for the sake of two ordinary Thunderfall Clan disciples?

He deeply regretted it. He should have admitted that Lei Qi and Lei Xu were killed by Xu He and compensated the Thunderfall Clan as much as possible. The Thunderfall Clan couldn't possibly demand Xu He's life, right?

One wrong step, and every step was wrong!

The Xu Clan King realized he had no way out.

He now had only two choices: either completely admit defeat and let Jiang Han vent his anger.

Xu He was definitely doomed, but he didn't know how many Xu Clan executives Jiang Han would kill to be satisfied.

He had to remember that the Xu Clan's feud with Jiang Han was very deep back then. The Xu Clan had hunted Jiang Han for a long time.

“Will Jiang Han kill me?”

The thought popped into the Xu Clan King's head.

If he completely admitted defeat to Jiang Han and accepted whatever punishment was given, it didn't matter if the Xu Clan's reputation stank, or if some Xu Clan executives died. He was just afraid Jiang Han would use him as an example.

There was another way!

That was to be stubborn to the end, pull out Tenth Lord, pull out Xiong Guanshan, and use the power of the entire White Jade City to suppress Jiang Han!

In a flash of lightning, the Xu Clan King quickly figured it out!

He chose the second path!

Because the killing intent on Jiang Han was too strong, he didn't dare to gamble.

The Xu Clan's grievances with Jiang Han were too deep, and Jiang Han had been demonized, so his nature must be very bloodthirsty. He probably wouldn't let him go.

The most important point!

He bet that Xiong Guanshan wouldn't sit idly by, because Xiong Guanshan was afraid of losing his position.

If Jiang Han strongly wanted to take over, would Xiong Guanshan give way?

Jiang Han's current strength and prestige were a great threat to Xiong Guanshan, so Xiong Guanshan would definitely take action, at least make an appearance.

So…

He needed to buy time, waiting for Tenth Lord and Xiong Guanshan to arrive!

He had no way out, he could only go all the way to the dark, he could only be tough to the end.

He quietly crushed a jade talisman in his hand, which was to notify Tenth Lord.

As for Xiong Guanshan, he didn't need to notify him. The news must have already spread and would soon reach Xiong Guanshan's ears, right?

He took a deep breath and asked, "Jiang Han, do you think Lei Qi and Lei Xu were killed by my clan? As long as you produce evidence, my clan is willing to accept any punishment without complaint. Otherwise, you are bullying the weak and killing innocent people. Not only will my Xu Clan not accept it, but the entire Eastern Region and the citizens of the Four Regions will not accept it!"

Jiang Han smiled coldly. He sensed that the Xu Clan King had crushed the jade talisman and understood that the Xu Clan King wanted to buy time.

But he wasn't in a hurry at all. He even wanted to delay for a while.

He wanted to see if Tenth Lord would come, and if Xiong Guanshan would come?

There was still a wisp of Primal Chaos Power in his Other Shore space. If Xiong Guanshan dared to come, he wouldn't mind using this wisp of Primal Chaos Power on Xiong Guanshan.

He pondered for a moment and said, "Want evidence? It's very simple. Liu Fangfei, go search Xu He's soul. If this matter has nothing to do with the Xu Clan, I will leave immediately and compensate the Xu Clan for their losses. If this matter was done by the Xu Clan, then after tonight, Xu Fortress will cease to exist!"
