Indestructible Body Of Vajra Of The Village Leader

The truth often lies in the grip of an iron fist.

Jiang Dali was never one to drag things out.

Since he already knew that the Regent King intended to use him as a counterbalance against the Six Top Families, he might as well fully exert the function of ’counterbalance’ and give the Regent King a surprise. As for whether it ultimately becomes a surprise or a shock, it depends on the Regent King’s determination to deal with the Six Top Families, whether it is firm enough.

And the reason it is the Six Top Families, rather than the ’greedy and crazy’ Five Families as mentioned by He Jin, is because Jiang Dali was very clear-headed and fully aware of He Jin’s scheme, which was to exclude his own family.

Once he inflicted enough blows on the other five families, the one to benefit the most would not be the court, but the He Family.

However, Jiang Dali did not care much about He Jin’s little schemes.

Firstly, He Jin was his ally, who had invested various benefits in him early on, so now he repays the favors;

Secondly, if he wanted to fight against the other five families, or even just against the Wan Family, he would need the He Family to provide funds, effort, and intelligence; the He Family could not just reap the benefits like a fisherman.

After revealing his thoughts to He Jin, even He Jin, who was always calm and accustomed to big scenes, couldn’t help but be stunned by Jiang Dali’s straightforward and bold idea.

”You want to take action against the Wan Family now? You? Alone?”

”Exactly!”

Jiang Dali spoke concisely and unwaveringly, a hint of a cold smile on his handsome, stone-sculptured-like face, ”What does Mr. He think?”

”This...”

When it came to the crunch, He Jin instead showed hesitation, with various thoughts swirling in his mind like a raging river.

”This, this is too crazy.”

The Dragon Cloud Mansion Master beside him was already pale with amazement, restless in his seat, feeling he shouldn’t be here today. Although he would never betray the He Family, listening to the conversation between Marquis Wei Wu and He Jin now always gave him a sense of peril the more he heard.

Indeed, it was too crazy. Although He Jin was happy to see the Wan Family have bad luck, he didn’t want anything to happen to Jiang Dali.

This wasn’t because he had deep feelings for Jiang Dali but because he was attached to the wealth invested in him.

He didn’t want the investment to end after dealing with the Wan Family, because if that happened, although he wouldn’t lose, he wouldn’t be able to double the profit either.

He Jin turned and looked at Jiang Dali, speaking solemnly, ”Marquis, you indeed have great courage and skill, but as I said, it hasn’t been determined which family instructed Lu Ping why there’s no evidence. If you attack the Wan Family without evidence, you might completely infuriate the Five Families and the civil and military officials, bringing countless harms with no benefits, making it impossible for you to take a step forward in the Holy Dynasty, essentially destroying yourself and the Wan Family, both suffering.”

”Hahaha!”

Jiang Dali shook his head and chuckled lightly, placing his teacup on the table with a thud, speaking in an audacious tone, ”If everything requires evidence, what use is there for power? If everything required evidence, how could Lu Ping vilify me at will?

At the end of the day, it all boils down to fists.

Some people have been in high positions for too long, rendered numb and foolish by their own power, thinking no one dares challenge their authority. Little do they know, when they have such thoughts, it’s the most dangerous time, the time they become foolish and retreat.”

He Jin was taken aback.

Did this Master Jiang really think no one noticed his Qi Mechanism appearing in the Sky?

However... it was merely the Qi Mechanism, and it could be misleading, which indeed couldn’t serve as solid evidence. Only what the eyes have seen constitutes solid evidence, but the only ones who might have actually witnessed Jiang Dali in the Sky might be the Regent King and the Dugu Townkeeper.

It would be impossible to have the Regent King testify, and the Dugu Townkeeper is reportedly still in a heavily injured coma, so how could he testify?

Upon this realization, He Jin instantly felt more at ease, sensing that now indeed was an excellent opportunity against the General Wan Family.

The key was having someone as daring and competent as Jiang Dali to execute it, which was indeed rare.

”Looks like Mr. He has also come to terms.”

Jiang Dali smiled.

He Jin sheepishly smiled, sighing and cupping his hands towards Jiang Dali, ”There are always talented people in each generation, Marquis, despite your youth, you already possess the strategic prowess akin to the late Emperor. Since the Marquis dares to act, old He here has no reason not to reinvest. How about it?

Marquis, wherever you need my He Family to assist, just say the word.”

Jiang Dali laughed heartily, nodding in satisfaction, stood up with hands behind his back, and paced, ”I need Mr. He to provide all intelligence on the experts from the Wan Family and other top families, including the strong individuals who might intervene when I deal with the Wan Family, with detailed information particularly on the Four Pillars.”

He Jin’s hefty body shuddered, then he nodded in agreement.

”Besides that, when I make my move on the Wan Family, I need your He Family to fully exert effort in smoothing relations with the civil and military officials as well as other families, indirectly preventing them from interfering or even pushing the Wan Family down further. In terms of relations, I believe your He Family is quite adept.”

Hearing this, He Jin’s face showed unapologetic admiration, nodding repeatedly.

Indeed, smoothing relations was what the He Family excelled in, with money not only making ghosts push millstones but also getting millstones to push ghosts.

Though some civil and military officials belonged to the Wan Family’s camp, unless they were on the same boat, the rest could be paid off to stand by.
