The Jiang Family.

Jiang Han and his wife, Xiao Yun, sat in a room.

They were both silent.

After a moment, Jiang Han finally spoke.

”Yun, what in the world do you think has happened to our son?”

He had refuted Wen Quan’s words at the time, but upon returning and thinking it over, he realized Jiang Chen truly had many questionable things about him.

He decided to discuss it with his wife.

Xiao Yun’s expression changed.

”You actually believe what Wen Quan said.”

”Our son is our son. What’s the problem?”

She was a little angry. She had absolutely no doubts about her son.

But her husband, Jiang Han, was taking this matter very seriously, which displeased her.

Jiang Han gave a bitter smile. ”I’m not doubting our son. I just... I still feel that something must have happened to him.”

”For example, after his Martial Vein was dug out, how did he get another one?”

”And all these incredible abilities he has now... I’ve never heard of anything like them.”

But Xiao Yun snapped, ”Shut up! Don’t say another word.”

”He has a mysterious master. It’s not like he never told you about that.”

”So what if our son has a few secrets? He has such amazing abilities—isn’t that a good thing?”

”Even if something happened to him, even if he’s not our son anymore, so what? Has he done anything to let the Jiang Family down?”

”You’re a grown man, why are you being so fussy?”

Furious, Xiao Yun gave her husband a thorough scolding.

She simply didn’t doubt her son. Even if some changes had occurred, she saw it as normal.

As a mother, she was very protective of her son.

Having been scolded by his wife, Jiang Han could only laugh awkwardly.

”Yun, that’s not what I meant.”

”I’m not suspecting him of anything.”

”Please don’t be angry anymore.”

In the end, Jiang Han could only try to appease his wife, Xiao Yun.

For now, the matter was dropped. Neither of them wanted to bring it up again.

Meanwhile, Wu Feng, who was pursuing the black-robed Martial King, had a sudden realization after a certain distance.

’Damn it, I’ve fallen for a trick! Luring the tiger from the mountain.’

He almost instinctively realized he’d been tricked. He immediately stopped his pursuit of the black-robed man and rushed back toward the City Lord’s Mansion.

The black-robed man, seemingly aware that his objective was complete, no longer headed for the City Lord’s Mansion and simply left on his own.

When he returned to the City Lord’s Mansion, Wu Feng found the place in chaos.

Lin Hai and the others were bustling about, dealing with casualties.

”What’s the situation?” he asked Lin Hai.

Lin Hai replied with a bitter smile, ”After you left, another Martial King Expert showed up. He went on a killing spree in the City Lord’s Mansion and then left.”

Wu Feng told Lin Hai to clean up the mess and hurried to the main hall where the City Lord was in seclusion.

”City Lord, may I come in?”

He took out a Communication Jade Talisman and sent a mental message inside.

Soon, the talisman glowed faintly.

A mental message came back from within.

”Come in!”

Wu Feng was overjoyed; it was the City Lord’s voice.

He quickly entered the hall, found the entrance to the secret chamber, and went inside.

As soon as he entered, he saw that the secret chamber was neat and tidy, with nothing out of place.

He relaxed.

Then he saw the City Lord, Wen Quan, sitting there cross-legged.

He quickly bowed respectfully. ”My apologies for the disturbance, City Lord.”

”Enemies broke in just now. Are you alright here?”

Wu Feng was being diligent, worried that the City Lord might have been assassinated.

He was naturally worried, which was why he had come to check.

Wen Quan shook his head. ”I’m fine. What’s the situation outside now?”

He opened his eyes and looked at Wu Feng with indifference.

There was nothing abnormal about him at all.

”Three Martial Kings attacked us. I suspect they were sent by the Jiang Family.”

”They’ve already left, but the City Lord’s Mansion suffered heavy casualties.”

He reported truthfully, giving a general account of the situation outside.

Wen Quan nodded. ”Alright. You handle the matters outside.”

”Oh, and from now on, no one is to provoke the Jiang Family.”

”You are dismissed.”

”I need a few more days of seclusion to recover from my injuries.”

Wu Feng said no more and left the secret chamber.

Once Wu Feng had gone, Wen Quan’s eyes snapped open.

A strange smile spread across his face.

”This body... isn’t bad at all,” he muttered to himself.

The next moment, a thumb-sized Cyan Silkworm suddenly drilled its way out from between his eyebrows.

Wen Quan extended his hand, caught the Cyan Silkworm, and placed it in his palm. The Cyan Silkworm slowly grew until it was the size of a full palm.

Stroking the Cyan Silkworm, Wen Quan’s eyes gleamed.

’Master is truly worthy of being called Master. I thought I would die after being refined into an elixir, but instead, I’ve received a tremendous fortune.’

’Now, as long as I devour enough souls, I can continuously evolve.’

’Becoming a Third-Grade Cyan Silkworm Pill won’t be a problem.’

’If I could become a Ninth-Grade Cyan Silkworm Pill, that would be perfect.’

He was filled with anticipation.

When Jiang Chen was about to refine it into a pill, it had been scared to death. But now, not only was it not dead, it had received this incredible fortune.

Jiang Chen was its master, and it was incapable of resisting his will.

However, for the Cyan Silkworm to evolve, it still had to rely on Jiang Chen.

A rare calm settled over Hanwu City.

With the exception of the Jiang Family, all the other factions seemed to have become unusually quiet.

The Jiang Family’s power continued to expand.

Jiang Chen, for his part, traveled leisurely between the City Lord’s Mansion and the Jiang estate, living a carefree and comfortable life.

He was enjoying a rare period of peace.

「One week later.」

Under the cover of night, two figures stood atop a mountain peak outside Hanwu City.

One of them stood slightly higher than the other.

His hands were clasped behind his back as he gazed into the distance.

”How is it going?” he asked casually.

Behind him, the other figure bowed.

”Master, I have gained perfect control of this body. Now, not even the people closest to him can see anything unusual.”

”Rest assured, leave the City Lord’s Mansion to me. There won’t be any problems.”

That’s right, the two were none other than Jiang Chen and Wen Quan, who was being controlled by the Cyan Silkworm.

Jiang Chen had arranged to meet here to avoid suspicion.

After all, even though he controlled Wen Quan, he absolutely could not let anyone else discover this fact.

He hadn’t even told his parents.

Telling them would do the Jiang Family no good.

This would have to remain his secret.

’Just imagine,’ he thought, ’if word got out that the City Lord of Hanwu City was under my control, the entire Fire Sparrow Kingdom would go insane.’

Fortunately, the Cyan Silkworm’s control over the body was perfect.

Even Jiang Chen himself couldn’t find any flaws.

Just then, Wen Quan looked at Jiang Chen’s back with a strange expression.

He suddenly asked, ”Master, do you want to know who it was that dug out your Martial Vein?”

What?

Jiang Chen’s body trembled.

He had always wondered about this but had never been able to figure it out.

After all, while Qin Muxue was a participant, she wasn’t the one who ultimately dug out his Martial Vein.

He’d never had any leads. But now, the Cyan Silkworm, having devoured Wen Quan’s soul, had also completely absorbed his memories.

This meant that the Cyan Silkworm knew everything Wen Quan had known.

”Speak!”

Jiang Chen did not turn around, uttering only a single word.

He had to avenge the original owner of this body. He had sworn an oath.

And Jiang Chen had never forgotten the promise he made to this body’s previous owner.
