Chapter 1737 - 1737: The Truth Will Come Out

"Brother Ben, you can't say that. Jiang Feng, after all, was part of the Jiang Family back in the day. It's not an exaggeration to call him a royal descendant, more than just a mere bastard..."

Beside Ben Guokai sat another elder, Mo Zongyong, the Mo Family Patriarch.

"What royal descendant, just a sacrificed victim of an internal feud. But that remnant has managed to survive until today. I didn't expect that. If this reaches the ears of that figure in the Jiang Family, it might shock him awake from his deathbed. By then, the capital city will surely be awash with turmoil..." Ben Guokai sneered.

"So, our purpose this time is to nip this matter in the bud. What several families before couldn't achieve, we must accomplish!"

Mo Zongyong said softly, "I don't know how you've arranged things. I'm not going to act like the Rong Family, scheming and hoarding at such a critical moment—that's just courting death!"

"Heh heh, Brother Mo, we're on the same page. As they say, succeed or die trying. This time I've brought all the family's heritage here. I also want to see whether this remnant, who is no longer the same, can withstand it!"

The two chuckled calmly, exuding a confidence of easily controlling the situation.

Behind them, Ben Yunhu and Mo Hongyu sat calmly, exchanging a glance and sharing the same mysterious confident smile.

They also felt that with the two families joining forces, sharing a common enemy, there was no way anything could go wrong. The tragedies that happened to the previous families would never replay on them!

"Grandfather, I've investigated it. Jiang Feng's woman is called Nangong Qingcheng, a local beauty with some fame. Once we get to the front, let's head directly to Binhai as instructed by the Eldest. Once we have that woman in our grasp, we'll have a bargaining chip to threaten Jiang Feng. Whether he lives or dies will be up to us!"

Ben Yunhu said to the one ahead, Ben Guokai.

"Exactly! Previously, Ninth Brother, Eleventh Brother, and Twelfth Brother failed because they didn't capture a weak spot to threaten Jiang Feng, allowing him to act recklessly. Simply put, they were too rash, acting without thinking! Now, we need to learn from their mistakes and keep a handle to make the Jiang cautious!" Mo Hongyu also chuckled.

Ben Guokai and Mo Zongyong both sneered.

Normally, given their status, they would disdain resorting to capturing a woman to threaten Jiang Feng.

But since Ying Zheng said so, for the sake of precaution, they'd comply this time; more safeguards are always beneficial.

So, after the convoy moved forward a bit, they changed course, bypassing the Provincial City, heading directly to Binhai!

But what neither family expected was that their movements had already been locked onto by Abraham and his group, waiting in ambush as soon as they took the detour!

"Capital City license plate, conspicuous number, coming in aggressively, it must be them!"

After carefully confirming, Abraham immediately took out his phone and reported the situation to Wu Feng.

Meanwhile, in Yanchi Villa.

Jiang Feng, inside the secret chamber, had just finished operating his technique, absorbing and refining Basel's corpse.

Now he barely needed to leave his room, as wave after wave of opponents came to him, essentially delivering free supplies, making it incredibly convenient for him to absorb Demonic Qi.

At the moment his absorption finished, he sharply sensed two people sneaking around outside and calmly said, "No need to hide, come in!"

Shangguan Wan'er and Dong Ruyan then peeked in with cautious heads, jumping inside.

"You spotted us, huh?" Shangguan Wan'er giggled.

"Of course, even if it were two mice I'd sense them, let alone you two breathing people."

Jiang Feng looked amusedly at the two girls. "Didn't I say not to disturb me? Why did you come here?"

"Jiang Feng, we were just curious what you're up to in here all secretively!"

Dong Ruyan said, "It's been several times now; you drag those corpses in here alone and process them cleanly. We're really curious, suspecting you might be..."

"Might be what?"

Jiang Feng felt helpless, knowing that secrets can't be concealed forever, especially with two curious followers like these.

"Well, Ruyan and I privately thought... you might be an offspring of the Cannibal Tribe, secretly consuming these bodies you bring to the chamber..." Shangguan Wan'er exaggeratedly stuck out her tongue.

Jiang Feng chuckled helplessly. "Cannibal Tribe in China?!"

Their wild imaginations were truly outrageous!

"Hmph, if not that, then maybe you have a cannibalism fetish. Such a disease does exist in the world. If you do have it, we wouldn't shun you but would hope you seek help..."

Dong Ruyan jokingly and half-seriously remarked.

Jiang Feng was totally amused and sighed. "Stop with the wild thoughts. If I were as ridiculous as you think, how could you both be standing here now? You would've been eaten already!"

Shangguan Wan'er and Dong Ruyan glanced at each other and then smiled broadly. "We were just teasing you! Of course, we know you're not like that. But, we're truly curious about how you dispose of those bodies without leaving a trace. It's kind of creepy..."

"Nothing special about it, related to the cultivation technique I practice."

Jiang Feng decided not to hide anymore, as they were practically his women now. "You can think of it as turning waste into resource, transforming corpses into Primordial Qi, and absorbing it. What I need isn't the body, but their Essence Blood."

Shangguan Wan'er and Dong Ruyan realized. Shangguan Wan'er immediately said, "I understand! Just like the Absorption Star Method in novels, you're converting that essence into your Inner Strength, right?"

Jiang Feng smiled. "If you want to interpret it that way, that's fine. It's roughly similar, but in the future, don't be curious about things like these, and certainly don't mention it to anyone, after all..."

Before he could finish, Wu Feng's voice suddenly came from outside: "Master, are you inside? I have urgent news to report..."

"Mm, come in!"

Jiang Feng turned to look outside, speaking calmly.

Wu Feng quickly entered, with a serious expression: "Master, according to the latest information, Abraham's side did spot people from the capital entering, just as you foresaw. Their primary target is indeed headed to Binhai! Abraham asked me to consult you on the next step. Should they act immediately?"
