Demonic Dao Fanfiction: Protecting You from Worries for a Lifetime

After Lan Xichen left, Chaoyang, lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes. Actually, Chaoyang had already woken up when someone arrived at the door, but he didn't want to move, nor did he want to see Lan Xichen.

He didn't know how long he lay there, as if time had stood still. Finally, Chaoyang lifted the blanket and slowly put on his clothes. It was fine at first, but once he started moving, the aching sensation in his body surged like a tide, seeping through every bone, a constant reminder of yesterday's madness.

Chaoyang suppressed the discomfort in his body, slowly stood up, and disappeared on the spot.

The Yunmeng Jiang family was actually wiped out!

This shocking news spread quickly throughout the Hundred Clan Immortal Sect this morning. It was precisely because of this incident that Lord Qingheng was so eagerly searching for Lan Xichen. Among the Hundred Clan Immortal Sect, the infighting and oppression of one another was commonplace. Smaller clans often vanished in the course of history, while new ones constantly emerged, joining the complex world of Jianghu. Therefore, while the Wen Clan's elimination of several smaller clans posed a potential threat to the Hundred Clan Immortal Sect, most didn't take it too seriously.

But the Yunmeng Jiang Clan was different! As a first-rate family on par with the Wen, Nie, Lan, and Jin clans, despite its decline in power in recent years, it was wiped out by Wen Chao overnight. Even though it had been weak in recent years, the fact that it was wiped out by Wen Chao and his men overnight made everyone wary.

What exactly is the Wen family planning? What do they want to do?

If a first-rate family could be destroyed at any time, what would become of the future for those smaller and less developed families that weren't as good as the Wen family? For a time, everyone was in a state of panic.

In response, Wen Chao said: I am wronged!

He had no intention of destroying the Jiang family. He simply wanted to establish an oversight office in Yunmeng so that he could claim credit for his father's accomplishments after he finished his retreat. Who could have imagined it would develop into this?

Yesterday, Wen Chao led three thousand elders of the Wen family and arrived at the Yunmeng area in a mighty manner, with no intention of concealing their whereabouts.

Wen Chao had this idea: I'd come with such fanfare, and if you, the Jiang family, knew what was happening, you should have come to greet me. Then I'd tell them about building the Supervisory Office. If you agreed, both families would be happy. If you didn't, he could have his men kill two people as a token of respect. But Wen Chao hadn't anticipated that the people who would assess the situation weren't at Lotus Pier!

Since Jiang Cheng's escape from Mount Qi, he'd been in a terrible state, suffering from numerous injuries and several broken bones. He was incredibly emaciated, having been carried back by his disciples. Yu Ziyuan had previously prioritized this son, but now that she'd lost Zi Dian and her family's support, she could only rely on Jiang Cheng to maintain her position within the Jiang family. So, seeing Jiang Cheng being carried back, she immediately blamed the disciples who had escaped with him.

On the first day after returning, not only did the Jiang disciples not receive good treatment but they were scolded and almost whipped. Even though the disciples did not show it on their faces, they felt uncomfortable in their hearts and became more and more dissatisfied with Yu Ziyuan.

Fortunately, Jiang Fengmian and Jiang Yanli knew how to behave. They noticed the disciples' dissatisfaction and quickly asked them to go back to their rooms to rest and asked a doctor to come and treat them.

This action made Yu Ziyuan very dissatisfied, and she was about to take action immediately. If Jiang Fengmian had not returned in time, Yu Ziyuan would probably have caused another big disturbance in the Lotus Pier.

Seeing Jiang Fengmian trying to stop her, Yu Ziyuan immediately started arguing with him: "Jiang Fengmian, do you remember that it was your son who was injured? Didn't you see that Acheng was injured like this? It was all because those people didn't take good care of Acheng. Instead of punishing them to vent Acheng's anger, you even let the medical practitioners treat their injuries. What are you thinking?!"

Jiang Fengmian initially managed to coax her patiently, but as Yu Ziyuan's words grew increasingly caustic, his patience wore thin. After instructing Jiang Yanli to carefully care for Jiang Cheng, he avoided Yu Ziyuan, claiming he was going to Mount Qishan to retrieve the sword. The Jiang Clan's disciples, fearing they might be implicated, remained timid. Yu Ziyuan's rage, unresolved, remained pent up. Only after Jiang Cheng's injuries began to improve did she gradually calm down.

Wen Chao waited and waited, but no one showed up. His patience wore thin, and Wang Lingjiao, eager to please him and demonstrate her influence, asked Wen Chao for a scouting mission. Wen Chao, having heard of the Purple Spider's reputation and worried about Wang Lingjiao's misfortune, sent Wen Zhuliu to accompany her.

When Wang Lingjiao arrived at Lotus Pier, she displayed her arrogance and dominance to the fullest. Not only did she wander around, she also picked and chose. This column was too dark, that curtain was not a nice color. She treated Lotus Pier like her own backyard.

Yu Ziyuan accompanied her with an expressionless face until they reached the main hall. She plopped down in the main seat and began to question Jiang Cheng. She said that Jiang Cheng not only disregarded Second Young Master Wen but also repeatedly contradicted him. It was clear that he looked down on Second Young Master Wen, and looking down on Second Young Master Wen was equivalent to looking down on the Wen family. What was Jiang Cheng up to? Rebellion? A huge accusation was placed on Jiang Cheng's head.

Jiang Cheng's eyes widened, and he was about to retort, but Yu Ziyuan stopped him. She looked at the arrogant Wang Lingjiao and asked calmly, "So what do you want to do?"

Wang Lingjiao took the opportunity to take revenge and said, "Just chop off one of his arms as an apology."

Jiang Cheng couldn't bear it any longer and shouted angrily, "How can I hold the sword then?"

Yu Ziyuan didn't say anything and drew her sword. Jiang Cheng looked at her in disbelief and said, "Mother! Are you really going to chop off my hand?"

Wang Lingjiao was very satisfied with Yu Ziyuan's understanding of the situation, and said as if she was doing her a great favor, "Mrs. Jiang is indeed sensible. After the Supervisory Office is built here, I will let you be the head of this office."

Yu Ziyuan had been simmering with anger, and now she couldn't bear it any longer. She whipped out the whip from her waist and swung it with all her might, sending the surrounding Wen Clan disciples carelessly carelessly caressing her. Then, she grabbed Wang Lingjiao by the collar, mercilessly dragged her off the chair, and slammed her to the ground. Yu Ziyuan furiously approached and mercilessly slapped Wang Lingjiao twice, leaving her dizzy. Then, she stamped on Wang Lingjiao's head and argued about her superiority.

Wang Lingjiao was terrified and screamed for Wen Zhuliu! Wen Zhuliu broke in through the window and engaged Yu Ziyuan in a fight. As for Jiang Cheng, no one knew what he was thinking. Instead of holding Wang Lingjiao hostage or helping his disciples kill the Wen disciples in the house, he was actually going to help his mother, sword in hand?

Wang Lingjiao took the opportunity to come to the window. She had never been humiliated like this since she followed Wen Chao. She would never give up until she got her revenge! She took out the signal from her arms and threw it into the sky one by one: "Come, come, come quickly!"

The Jiang Clan disciples outside watched as the sky above the Lotus Pier became engulfed in flames. Soon, shouts of killing could be heard. Countless Wen Clan disciples charged in from the Lotus Pier's main gate.
