For now, the situation was under control.
At the very least, the Jiang Family and the Elder Council no longer needed to fight.
Each side took back their wounded and fallen.
Shan Jianqing and Lu Chengwen launched into a fierce battle.
A Light Sword flashed like lightning, whistling as it struck the Iron Staff with a series of clanging blows.
To everyone's surprise, Lu Chengwen was not at a disadvantage in the slightest!
The Iron Staff was no weaker; if anything, it appeared even fiercer and more violent.
Jiang Yuanzheng turned and asked his subordinate, "How is my little sister?"
"She has taken medicine for her injuries, and her wounds are not serious. But... the child most likely cannot be saved."
Jiang Yuanzheng closed his eyes. Even Bimuyu felt uncertain in the face of that rage and unwillingness.
Biting his lip, he nodded. "Fine, fine, fine... If Lu Chengwen doesn't win, I'll slaughter him myself."
Bimuyu could not make heads or tails of things now.
At least for the moment, their people had caused the loss of someone else's woman and child.
Although there was no conclusive evidence, judging by Lu Chengwen's state... this matter was most likely inseparable from Shan Jianqing.
And if Shan Jianqing had really done it... then the Elder Council was truly in the wrong.
Being in the wrong was a small matter. He had attacked a woman, a woman of the Jiang Family. What could his purpose have been?!
If it had not been to silence her, then what other reason could there be?
Thinking of this, Bimuyu felt incredibly heavy-hearted.
He suddenly found himself hoping that Lu Chengwen would kill Shan Jianqing outright.
At least then, there would be no living witness left behind.
The thought startled him, but... he could not stop himself
