At this moment, Robert Jiang’s understanding of Terra Su’s strength was still stuck at the time when Terra and Miles Ye dueled in the southern part of the city. Back then, Terra was only at the first level of the Condensing Origin Realm.
Robert, unwilling to believe it, walked out of the courtyard to check on the situation of the guards outside. When he returned, his face had turned extremely grim.
The guards outside were not only all dead, but each had been killed with a single sword strike, their heads severed from their bodies.
“Terra Su, you’re courting death!”
Robert was furious. They had spent so much effort training these Condensing Origin Realm guards, and now Terra had effortlessly killed them all!
Robert couldn’t understand how Terra’s strength had grown so much. Wasn’t he just at the first level of the Condensing Origin Realm?
Could it be that he had made another breakthrough in less than a month?
“Terra Su!”
Otto Jiang, however, was different from Robert. He remained very calm. He raised his hand to stop the furious Robert, his eyes fixed on Terra as he slowly asked, “Where is the Patriarch’s Seal?”
Otto didn’t believe that Terra didn’t know the true location of the Patriarch’s Seal. He knew every detail of its appearance and was certain that Terra knew where it was!
“If you tell us the true location of the Patriarch’s Seal now, I might consider leaving you a whole corpse,” Otto said.
To be honest, Otto had initially thought that if Terra knew the game was up, he would definitely hide and become a coward. But he hadn’t expected Terra to show up on his own. In this regard, he had a bit of admiration for Terra.
However, admiration aside, if Terra didn’t reveal the true whereabouts of the Patriarch’s Seal, Otto would never let him go.
Terra sneered, “What if I don’t tell you?”
“If you don’t tell us, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Otto’s brows furrowed as he coldly said, “I will make sure you die without a burial place. And your cousin Emma Jiang will be married off to Wang Sheng! Believe me, at that time, both your cousin and your aunt will live in misery for the rest of their lives!”
“Hmph, that’s right!”
Robert loudly agreed, “There’s a road to heaven you refuse to take, yet you insist on barging into hell. Since you’ve come to this courtyard today, don’t think about leaving. Just obediently tell us the whereabouts of the Patriarch’s Seal!”
“Want the Patriarch’s Seal? Dream on.”
Terra said calmly. He would never let the Patriarch’s Seal fall into the hands of these two despicable men, as it would be a devastating blow to the Jiang Family.
“Kid, you’re seeking death!”
Robert was furious, True Essence flickering in his palm, as if he really intended to kill Terra on the spot.
“Wait!”
Otto shouted, stopping Robert. At the same time, he slowly walked towards Terra, keeping an eye on his surroundings, seemingly looking for Terra’s backup.
In Otto’s view, since Terra dared to barge into the Jiang Family, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to come here to die. If he dared to come, he must have some support.
“I’ll say it once, release my aunt.”
Terra held the Cang Hai Sword, its tip pointing at Otto, and said calmly.
“How dare you!”
Robert, on the side, couldn’t tolerate a junior like Terra openly pointing a sword at his brother. He immediately leaped forward, aiming a palm strike at Terra’s head.
At that moment, Robert’s vision suddenly blurred!
A black figure seemed to appear out of thin air, suddenly blocking Terra.
Smack! The black figure slapped Robert, causing him to spit blood and fly backward.
“A Condensing Origin Realm seventh-level expert!”
Otto’s eyes flashed with a hint of shock as he stared at the suddenly appearing Sean Feng, “So, this is your backup?”
No wonder Terra was fearless and dared to break into the Jiang Family; he had such a powerful ally!
However, what shocked Otto was that a Condensing Origin Realm seventh-level expert was a rare existence in Clear River City. How could a junior like Terra command such a person?
Moreover, although the black-robed man was masked, his figure didn’t match any known Condensing Origin Realm seventh-level experts in Clear River City.
Robert climbed up from the ground, wiping the blood from his mouth hatefully, “So what if he’s at the seventh level of the Condensing Origin Realm? Brother, aren’t you also at the seventh level? You hold him off! I’ll deal with this brat Terra!”
“Hmph, no need!”
Otto suddenly sneered, his gaze shifting to the courtyard gate, “Someone will help us deal with Terra, and they’re already here!”
“Someone will help us deal with Terra? Who?” Robert asked, puzzled.
Just as Robert finished speaking, a large group of people suddenly walked in from outside the courtyard.
Leading them was a man with a face like a red jujube and a burly figure, none other than the Patriarch of the Wang Family, Joshua Wang!
Behind Joshua were twenty to thirty high-ranking members of the Wang Family.
“Brother Wang, so it was you who came!”
Robert was overjoyed. It was Terra’s interference that had prevented the Wang Family from marrying Emma Jiang. Now, if Joshua knew that Terra had ruined the marriage, he would never let Terra off.
Joshua waved his hand, then fixed his gaze on Terra, and said in a deep voice, “The Wang and Jiang families were originally engaged, but then the Jiang Family suddenly came to break off the engagement. Was this your doing?”
“Since Patriarch Wang already knows the answer, why ask me?” Terra sneered. He had no fondness for someone like Joshua, who knew exactly what kind of person his son Wang Sheng was, yet still arranged a marriage, ruining a girl’s life. It was the height of selfishness.
Joshua’s face changed, “Earlier this evening, Brother Otto sent someone to inform me. I was skeptical, but it turns out it was indeed you!”
“Good, ruining the marriage between the Wang and Jiang families is a deliberate attempt to destroy the relationship between the two families. Your intentions are punishable by death!”
The high-ranking members of the Wang Family behind him also shouted one after another. The Jiang Family’s breaking off the engagement had humiliated the entire Wang Family. They had been full of resentment towards Otto and Robert, but earlier this evening, Otto had sent someone to the Wang Family, claiming that Terra had used the Patriarch’s Seal to threaten Otto and Robert into breaking off the engagement.
So, the Wang Family’s anger was all directed at Terra.
Facing the Wang Family’s fury, Terra remained unafraid and said calmly, “Have some shame. Everyone in Clear River City knows what kind of person Wang Sheng is. Don’t think that just because my cousin doesn’t have a father, she’s easy to bully. Take a good look at your Wang Sheng; does he deserve my cousin?”
“You little brat, you’re courting death!”
“Teach this ungrateful brat a lesson!”
The Wang Family members were even more enraged, each of them ready to rush up and teach Terra a lesson.
“Everyone, wait! I want to take this opportunity to expose something!”
At that moment, someone suddenly shouted from the crowd.
Everyone turned to look and saw that the person who spoke was none other than Timothy Jiang, Robert’s son!
Seeing everyone looking at him, Timothy squeezed out of the crowd and pointed at Terra, saying:
“He and Emma Jiang are having an affair!”
“I saw them in the courtyard, hugging and kissing, having a secret rendezvous. I saw it with my own eyes!”
