Chapter 35

Jiang Rulong was over seven feet tall, towering two heads above Jiang Yi, with a physique as robust as a raging bear. Unlike Jiang Ruhu, his body was covered in knotted muscles, and he had a square head and large ears. Just by looking at him, one could tell he was a fierce man.

"Ah, I'll kill you, you bastard!"

Seeing Jiang Yi break Jiang Ruhu's leg right in front of him, his eyes widened in rage, and his body exuded a murderous aura. With a fierce stomp, he charged forward like a mad bull.

"Hmph!"

Jiang Yi had long predicted that Jiang Rulong would come. He knew that if Jiang Rulong hadn't returned with Jiang Henshui, Jiang Ruhu wouldn't have dared to touch Jiang Xiaonu. It was precisely because Jiang Rulong had returned that Jiang Ruhu was eager to take revenge, leading to the beating of Jiang Xiaonu.

Just now, he had noticed Jiang Ruying sneaking away, and he had been the last to move against Jiang Ruhu, precisely to wait for this person. Breaking Jiang Ruhu's leg in front of him was also... to provoke him!

So, as Jiang Rulong charged forward like a mad bull, Jiang Yi's expression didn't change. Instead, he quickly bent down, grabbed Jiang Ruhu's other leg, and used it as a weapon, swinging it in the air and smashing it toward Jiang Rulong.

He had used this move on West Mountain before and knew its immense power, which could catch the opponent off guard. Jiang Rulong was at the Seventh Level of the Cauldron Casting Realm, and his strength was formidable. Although Jiang Yi had fought Cold Qianqian, who was at the Eighth Level of the Cauldron Casting Realm, in the training room of the Martial Hall, he still felt uncertain in a real fight and had to be cautious.

This move was indeed fierce!

At least Jiang Rulong was stunned. He had a lot of skills but no place to use them. Jiang Yi swung his brother like a sack of rice toward him. What could he do? He could only keep retreating and roaring in rage, "Little bastard, I'll kill you, kill you! Little bastard, if you have the guts, put down my brother and see if I don't tear you apart!"

"Huff, huff!"

Jiang Yi's lips curled in mockery as he kept swinging Jiang Ruhu toward Jiang Rulong. Jiang Ruhu, who probably weighed 150 to 160 pounds, felt like a sack of rice in his hands, and the swings were smooth and swift...

"Ugh..."

Jiang Gushui and Jiang Rulang were also stunned. They had been in many fights but had never seen such a thug-like move. They were both nervous, thinking that if Jiang Yi made a mistake, Jiang Ruhu's head would smash into the ground, and his brains would splatter.

"Ah, ah, ah!"

Jiang Ruhu wanted to die. The intense pain in his body had numbed him, and his head was dizzy. This wasn't the worst part; what made him feel the most humiliated was being swung around like this in front of so many people. After being swung twice, he would never be able to hold his head high in the Jiang family again.

"Ah!"

Jiang Yi's grip on Jiang Ruhu suddenly loosened, as if he had swung too hard and lost his grip. His face showed panic because Jiang Ruhu's body flew straight out, his head heading straight for the wall. If he hit it, his head would... burst like a watermelon.

"Damn!"

Jiang Rulong was terrified. His body was already moving to the side to dodge, but he quickly twisted his body and shot toward Jiang Ruhu like a bullet, managing to grab his body just before he hit the wall.

"Phew!"

Jiang Rulong was drenched in cold sweat. Before he could wipe it away, he suddenly felt a sharp killing intent lock onto him. His eyes darted around, but they immediately narrowed because a fist was rapidly growing in his field of vision...

"Little bastard, you're so despicable!"

Jiang Rulong instantly realized that Jiang Yi's "accident" was intentional. Everything was part of his plan. He was now holding Jiang Ruhu, and because of his momentum, his center of gravity was unstable, greatly reducing his combat effectiveness. Jiang Yi's timing for the sneak attack was perfect...

"Roar!"

Jiang Rulong, the second strongest among the young generation of the Jiang family, was not to be underestimated. In a dangerous situation, he grabbed Jiang Ruhu with one hand, swung him, and then used one leg to push off the ground, leaping up and sweeping his other leg at Jiang Yi.

"The Seventh Level of the Cauldron Casting Realm is indeed powerful!"

Jiang Yi secretly marveled, but his face remained calm. His vision was extremely sharp, and he had clearly predicted Jiang Rulong's attack. He continued to charge forward, leaning back to easily dodge Jiang Rulong's leg, and then used his hands to quickly wrap around Jiang Rulong's other leg, swinging him around.

Balance is crucial for the human body. When one's center of gravity is unstable, they instinctively panic, and even the strongest combat skills are useless. For example, Jiang Rulong, being swung around in the air by Jiang Yi, was naturally disoriented and dizzy.

Jiang Yi quickly spun on the ground, using maximum force and speed to swing Jiang Rulong in the air. When his head was sufficiently dizzy, he moved his feet and slammed him into the wall...

"Bang!"

With such force, the outcome was clear. Jiang Rulong's head was split open, and blood stained half the wall.

"Ah, ah! Little bastard, I'll kill you, kill you!"

Jiang Rulong roared in rage. The intense pain in his head and the blood in his eyes drove him into a frenzy. He twisted his body, roared in anger, and kicked wildly with his other leg, trying to hit Jiang Yi and break free from his control.

"With your strength, you want to kill me? Young Master hasn't even taken you seriously yet!"

Jiang Yi's terrifying vision made it impossible for Jiang Ruhu to hit him. Moreover, he could always control Jiang Rulong's body to make him lose his balance, so how could Jiang Rulong break free? He sighed, somewhat disappointed in Jiang Rulong's combat ability. He hadn't even used his black yuan force to enhance his strength; he had easily defeated him with a small trick, and it hadn't even been a satisfying fight...

Since he had already broken Jiang Rulong's head, Jiang Yi had nothing to lose. He continued to swing Jiang Rulong around in the Martial Hall, but this time he controlled his strength, not wanting to kill him, or he would be the one to die.

Jiang Gushui and the others looked at each other in shock. They had already sent someone to call for help. They never expected this sealed waste, this person they had always ignored, to become so fierce. Not only did he overpower dozens of people, but he also easily defeated Jiang Rulong, the second-ranked young member of the family.

"I'll kill you, kill you..."

In the vast Martial Hall, dozens of people were present. Apart from Jiang Song, Jiang Bao, and Jiang Ruhu, who were still screaming in pain, only Jiang Rulong's furious roars echoed, the thunderous sound making everyone's eardrums hurt and feeling... so mocking!

"Whoosh!"

Jiang Yi's figure suddenly paused, and he released his grip. Jiang Rulong's body shot upward like a bullet. At the same time, Jiang Yi kicked off the ground and quickly followed, grabbing Jiang Rulong as he landed and pressing him down, while his knee slammed into his waist...

"Crack!"

Everyone turned away, unable to bear the sound of the crisp bone breaking. They were shaken and looked at Jiang Yi with fear.

This usually low-key and honest waste of a son was so ruthless, with such cruel methods. If Jiang Rulong and Jiang Ruhu weren't family members, they would probably have been killed by him.

Everyone in the room had bullied others and beaten lower-ranking family members, and they had been cruel in their beatings. But now, they were all frightened by Jiang Yi's methods. The only thought in their minds was that they must never provoke this person...

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

A heavy set of footsteps from outside brought everyone back to reality, and Jiang Gushui and the others quickly came to their senses.

The future? What future?

Would Jiang Yi even have a future? After today, he would likely become a complete waste. Such insane methods would lead to the Punishment Hall either killing him or stripping him of his cultivation, making him a lifelong waste...

"Stop!"

A voice like a thunderclap echoed, and over ten people entered in a line. A middle-aged man in a black brocade robe, with fierce eyes, walked in first. His overwhelming aura instantly enveloped the entire Martial Hall. His eyes locked onto Jiang Yi, and he roared, his hands surrounded by yuan force, clearly indicating that if Jiang Yi didn't stop, he would intervene.

"Jiang Yi pays respects to the Martial Hall Elder!"

Jiang Yi wasn't that stupid. He immediately retracted the leg he was about to stomp on Jiang Rulong and bowed respectfully to the man in the brocade robe.

The others also came to their senses and bowed, saying, "We pay respects to the Martial Hall Elder."

"What's going on here?"

The middle-aged man's yuan force retreated into his body, and he looked around with a furious expression, shouting, "What are you all standing around for? Take the injured to be treated! Everyone else, take them to the Punishment Hall. You all are lawless and unruly!"

"Report to the Elder, I know what's going on!"

Jiang Yi's face showed no panic. Facing the third-strongest member of the family, the Martial Hall Elder, he remained composed and said, "All these people were injured by me. I am willing to go to the Punishment Hall and confess. However, I request that all the elders of the family be present during the trial. Otherwise... I would rather die than go to the Punishment Hall and be wrongfully killed. I ask the Elder to kill me with your own hands!"

"Hmm?"

The Martial Hall Elder's face became even darker, his hand surrounded by yuan force as he strode toward Jiang Yi, his cold voice echoing throughout the Martial Hall, "You, a beast, have injured people and are still so arrogant. Do you think I dare not kill you?"

Jiang Yi didn't raise his head, still bowing and said, "Then please grant me my wish! Jiang Yi would rather die at your hands than go to the Punishment Hall and be wrongfully killed!"
