Such a tactical arrangement not only enhances their flexibility, but also provides a life guarantee for each other invisibly - in the dangerous Jiang family territory, once one of them encounters something unexpected, the other can respond quickly and carry out rescue.

, avoiding the desperate situation of both falling into a trap.

As the two men split up again, several cracks in the Jiang family's defense system seemed to be torn open by invisible hands. Every attack they made seemed so precise and deadly, as if they knew the Jiang family's layout well in advance.

The tacit cooperation between Ling Xiao and Jin Yan makes their actions more unpredictable and more difficult to contain. They are like two sharp blades, cutting wantonly on the Jiang family's defense line. Every confrontation strives for a quick victory.

Don't leave any chance for the enemy to counterattack.

This time, their methods were more straightforward and left no room for anything. Whenever an assassination was completed, the two would quickly leave the scene and look for the next target, never willing to fight.

They used their familiarity with the terrain and superb body skills to constantly change their positions. Even if the strong men of the Jiang family tried to organize an effective siege, they always failed and could only watch them disappear from sight.

middle.

At this time, the atmosphere within the Jiang family was extremely tense. Jiang Zhan, Jiang Lianheng and those powerful men in the Tongtian realm gathered in the family meeting hall. Their faces were solemn, and there was an indescribable feeling between their brows.

Anxiety and restlessness.

They know very well that Ling Xiao and Jin Yan's attack again is no accident, but has a clear purpose and plan. How to effectively deal with these two powerful enemies while protecting the safety of the family has become their current most important question.

A tough problem.

Everyone sat in a circle and offered suggestions, but every plan seemed to have loopholes that were difficult to make up. They knew that if they wanted to completely get rid of the current predicament, they must find the weaknesses of Ling Xiao and Jin Yan, or formulate a better solution.

A thorough defense strategy.

However, all this takes time, and time is so precious and scarce for the Jiang family at this moment.

"It's so hateful! If I hadn't been attacked by the cunning Ling Xiao and stabbed through the heart, I would have personally picked up the sword and chopped those two little bastards into thousands of pieces to satisfy the hatred in my heart!" Jiang Zhan's voice was filled with laughter.

Trembling with anger, his eyes were wide open, as if he could spit out fire, and the muscles on his face were twisted with excessive anger, making him look ferocious and terrifying.

He clenched his fists tightly, his nails dug deeply into his palms, and blood slowly dripped down his fingers, but it seemed to do nothing to alleviate the resentment and unwillingness in his heart.

Jiang Lianheng stood aside, looking at his second uncle like this, with mixed feelings in his heart.

He sighed, his tone full of helplessness and frustration: "Second uncle, you should rest in peace and recuperate. The Jiang family is in a precarious situation now, and we still need you to support the overall situation. My father's death has made the entire Jiang family feel like

We have lost our backbone, people are scattered, and rumors are spreading everywhere. I heard that many clan members have chosen to flee the family and find their own way of life because they are afraid of being implicated."

Speaking of this, Jiang Lianheng's eyes flashed with pain and sadness.

He knew very well that most of the tribesmen who chose to leave did so because they lacked sufficient strength and confidence. Facing the coming storm, they chose to protect themselves instead of sharing the difficulties with their family. This reality made him feel angry.

I felt deeply powerless again.

"In just one hour, the family was completely empty. Except for the secret guards and secret guards who swore loyalty to the death, and a few loyal buddies, there was almost nothing left." Jiang Lian

Heng continued, his voice was low and heavy, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from the bottom of his heart.

He looked up and looked out the window, with a flash of complicated emotions in his eyes. He was depressed because the family had encountered an unprecedented crisis; he was angry because of the ruthlessness and selfishness of those betrayers; but more importantly, he was helpless.

He understood that no matter how hard they tried, they could not change the status quo, because the gap in strength was there, like an insurmountable chasm.

"One Ling Xiao and one Jin Yan are enough to put our Jiang family into such a predicament. This is not only a shame for us, but also a mockery of the entire Jiang family." Jiang Lianheng's words were full of bitterness and self-mockery.

, he knew very well that the only way to change all this was to become stronger, but reality told him that this would not happen overnight.

At this moment, the Jiang family is like a small boat drifting in a storm, which may be swallowed up by huge waves at any time. As the only strong men left in the family, Jiang Lianheng and Jiang Zhan can only grit their teeth and hold on.

Waiting for that glimmer of hope to arrive.

"What did the people of the Ji family say? Are they unwilling to lend a helping hand?" Jiang Zhan stared at Jiang Lianheng with burning eyes, a hint of urgency and uneasiness in his tone. In his eyes, there was concern for the future of the family.

Worry, but also deep confusion about the Ji family's reaction.

Hearing this, Jiang Lianheng shook his head helplessly and sighed: "It's not that the Ji family is unwilling to help, it's just that the conditions they put forward are really unacceptable. Every one of those terms is cutting like a sharp blade.

The lifeblood of the Jiang family prevents me from nodding easily. Therefore, after careful consideration, I decided to refuse their assistance. At least, under such harsh conditions, we cannot compromise easily."

"You are confused!" Jiang Zhan suddenly became excited when he heard this. He slammed the table, stood up, and glared at Jiang Lianheng.

"At this critical moment of life and death, what else can we not give up? The Jiang family and the Ji family are inextricably linked, and we have already surrendered to them. Now, although their demands are excessive, they are still

How far can you go too far? As long as you can save the Jiang family, why not make temporary sacrifices? Promise them, this is the only way out at the moment!"

Jiang Zhan's words were full of determination and helplessness. He knew that his decision might not be wise, but in the face of the survival of his family, he had no choice. His eyes flashed with determination and determination, as if he was declaring war on fate.

.

At this moment, an old and steady voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the dispute between the two: "Can't we try to make peace with Ling Xiao? I think that Ling Xiao, although he is decisive, is not unreasonable.

Maybe we can find a way out that is acceptable to both parties through negotiation."

The old man who spoke had a kind face, and his eyes revealed a wisdom and indifference that had gone through vicissitudes of life.

He stood up slowly, looked around, and continued: "War and killing are never the best way to solve problems. In the face of life and death, what we should learn more is communication and understanding. Although the Ji family's assistance is important, if we can
