Combat Emperor: Zhang Yu's Journey
Chapters... 28: Envoy of the Jiang Clan
The death of the masked ferret became the end of the turmoil that occurred in the northern valley. Zhang Yu with his father, including the patriarch and three other elders returned to the residence.
"What's Zhang Yu? What do you want to talk about?" zhang Lei asked Zhang Yu.
Zhang Long who was at the side also urged. "Say Yu'er, you're making us curious."
While at the exit of the northern valley region Zhang Yu said he wanted to speak something important when he returned. They are now in the patriarchal home. There was no one else around and the door of the room was shut.
Zhang Yu took out the metal tube from the storage ring. "It's about the soul control device."
Zhang Lei and Zhang Long's eyes compactly narrowed. Their eyebrows frowned and looked curious.
"When I was on my way to the northern valley, I accidentally met the Jiang Clan group."
"Why are the people of the Jiang Clan in our territory? Are they ...."
"Second Chief, let your son speak first. He wants to say something."
Zhang Long got carried away after hearing the Jiang Clan group. "Sorry sorry ... Yu'er, continue your story."
Zhang Yu was silent for a moment. " ... The mastermind behind this mess was the Jiang Clan. As I followed them, it turned out that their destination was the northern valley and I destroyed this soul control device the moment they wanted to activate it."
Zhang Lei's breathing was choked. Similarly, Zhang Long was no less surprised.
"Yu'er, do you have any evidence that they were the culprits?" ask Zhang Long.
Because after all this problem is not a matter of lightly accusing without evidence will cause division.
Zhang Yu understood what his father was worried about. From the beginning, I had expected this. That's why he kept three belts with three parallel stripes.
When he saw the three belts, Zhang Lei's anger could not be restrained.
"Suck!"
The old man hit the table almost upside down. He stood up from his seat and was still trying to stabilize his breath.
"Klan Jiang bastard! Though a few days ago they still said they wanted to help the Zhang Clan overcome the herd of spiritual beasts in case of chaos in the skull valley. But it turned out that from the beginning this was their plan! Really brazen!"
Zhang Ling was also unable to contain his emotions after knowing this fact. He clenched his hands until his fingernails pierced his palms.
"Patriarch, we can't just let them act as they please. We have to retaliate!" Zhang Long was the type of person who always thought critically. He was very rarely carried away by this kind of anger. But the Jiang Clan had indeed gone too far.
If not for Zhang Yu first finding the metal tube in the flower valley, perhaps the casualties from the Zhang Clan would have been countless.
"We can't just be quiet. But where did they get the soul control device? I've never heard of a tool like this before. Not even in the historical record of Qian Gu City had found it."
Tak...
Zhang Lei and Zhang Ling's attention was fixed on a plaque on the table. Zhang Yu holding the plaque stared doubtfully. "Why do I feel suspicious about this plaque. I got it in one of the storage rings of the Jiang Clan group. Does the Patriarch or Dad know anything?"
Black plaque with a white flame symbol. Zhang Lei and Zhang Long could not help but frown.
"It seems familiar. What do you think, Patriarch?" zhang Long asked as he stroked his chin.
Zhang Lei looked even more serious.
"This article ... Not wrong anymore! There they are, there they are,
Zhang Lei gritted his teeth furiously. "It's no wonder that there's this kind of tool in their hands. It was inseparable from the relationship that intertwined with the He family, Heishan City."
Zhang Long who heard the He City Heishan family was like recalling something that had been for a very long time. "Patriarch, if not mistaken there are indeed rumors about the Jiang Clan having ties to the He family. That was a few years ago. I didn't think it wasn't just a rumor."
While the two men to his left right spoke of the He family and Heishan City, Zhang Yu was not very knowledgeable about the He family from Heishan City. He had only heard the name of this family for the first time.
"Sorry to bother you, Patriarch. But there's business from the Jiang Clan coming to see you."
The housekeeper stood behind the door and delivered a message from outside.
Due to the coincidence at that moment in the room was very quiet, the voice of the housekeeper was very clear.
"Are you sure it's the envoy of the Jiang Clan?" zhang Lei asked without moving from his seat.
"real Patriarch. They wore belts with a three-line parallel emblem. Moreover, they also carried a letter with the seal of the Jiang Clan."
"alright. You go and tell me about it to come see me at the waiting place."
Got such an order, the housekeeper immediately carried it out. Zhang Lei looked at Zhang Long and turned to Zhang Yu. "I don't know what they're planning right now. But for sure, they've put the war flag on us."
"Patriarch, let me come with you to meet the envoy of the Jiang Clan." Zhang Long immediately got up from his seat.
Not wanting to miss Zhang Yu was following her father. "Patriark, I'm coming too."
"All right,"
...
In the waiting room.
"absolutely outrageous! Do they want to make us wait here forever?" The middle-aged man tapped his finger on the chair and stared at the door that was unfolding.
The man beside him who was younger instilled his partner. "Silence slightly. The old man is coming soon too. Maybe because it's old to walk you have to bend."
Those two Jiang Clan envoys laughed at Zhang Lei. They laughed until they realized that the door of the room had just opened.
"It looks like you guys are in a good mood. Didn't we?"
Jiang Wu and Jiang Qi were surprised by the sudden sound. They turned their faces to the side and saw three people walking over.
"Patriarch Zhang Lei, nice to meet you. I came here on the orders of the patriarch to deliver the invitation."
Oh...
"What's that forte?" Zhang Lei did not mince words by offering them a drink or something. For him it was already friendly enough to not attack the two given what the Jiang Clan had done to the Zhang Clan.
Jiang Qi grunted softly. Inwardly said with annoyance. "Two bad people! He didn't even offer us food or drink. Did he deliberately show his arrogance in front of us?"
Jiang Wu was also a little annoyed. But she chose to be quiet while her hand pulled a scroll from her clothing pocket.
"This is the patriarch's birthday invitation. Wishing the Zhang Clan could attend and enliven the event."
Zhang Lei stared at the scroll. After receiving it he looked at the two envoys of the Jiang Clan and waved his hands. "This invitation, the Zhang Clan accepted it. Please go, and I'm sorry I won't deliver."
The angry face was completely flushed out. Jiang Wu and Jiang Qi compactly hardened their jaws.
"Two annoying jackbirds! You can be arrogant today. But tomorrow, don't expect you to have a chance to do it."
