Cultivation knew no passage of years.

Two days passed in no more than the flick of a finger.

Two days later, the Jiang Family erupted.

Outside the Jiang Family, a vast crowd of more than a hundred figures arrived in grand procession, like black clouds pressing down upon a city, radiating an overwhelming sense of oppression.

Terrifying auras spread through heaven and earth, incomparably terrifying.

This sight startled everyone in the Jiang Family.

"What kind of grand display is this?!"

"It seems... Jiang Yifei has returned!"

"Jiang Yifei? Why did he bring back so many people?"

"If I'm not mistaken, he may have come to seek revenge against Jiang Xuan..."

The Jiang Family disciples clamored without end.

"Hahaha! My son has returned!"

Amid the crowd's uproar, laughter rang throughout heaven and earth. Great Elder Jiang Mochen emerged from the Jiang Family and walked toward Jiang Yifei with a beaming smile.

"Father!"

Upon seeing Jiang Mochen, Jiang Yifei revealed an incomparably brilliant smile as well. He walked over to Jiang Mochen and pointed to the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader as he introduced him.

"Father, this is the leader of my Heaven-Mending Sect."

Whoosh—

Jiang Yifei's words stirred up a thousand waves with a single stone. The Jiang Family clansmen below all changed expression, struck with utter shock.

The Heaven-Mending Sect Leader was the master of one of the Eastern Wilderness's great overlord factions!

His cultivation was likely no weaker than that of their family head, Jiang Wuhui!

Without question, he was a colossal figure!

"Greetings, Sect Leader. Thank you for valuing and guiding my son!"

After learning the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader's identity, Jiang Mochen immediately put on an incomparably fawning smile and shamelessly groveled before him like a lapdog.

"Sect Leader, this is my father."

Jiang Yifei said to the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader.

"Mm."

In contrast to Jiang Mochen's bootlicking manner, the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader appeared exceptionally indifferent, merely giving Jiang Mochen a slight nod.

In his heart, if not for Jiang Yifei, someone like Jiang Mochen would not even be worthy of his personal attention.

"Father, I saw the message you sent me a few days ago. This time, I returned to seek justice from the family head."

Jiang Yifei stared into the Jiang Family as he spoke.

"Indeed. I returned with Yifei this time precisely for this matter. We cultivators, when we hear of injustice and encounter unfairness, must set it right!"

The Heaven-Mending Sect Leader spoke as well, his words righteous and stern.

"Wuu... Yifei, your younger brother died too miserably. Jiang Xuan beheaded him with a single sword strike! He is a demon through and through! And Jiang Wuhui, relying on his position as Jiang Family head, actually openly shielded Jiang Xuan! With this injustice unresolved, even I cannot sit or stand at ease in the Jiang Family!"

Jiang Mochen's voice choked with sobs as he tearfully poured out his grievances to Jiang Yifei and the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader.

"Rest assured. I will seek justice from Jiang Wuhui over this matter, for Yifei and for you!"

Upon hearing this, the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader spoke even more righteously.

"Wuu... Heaven has eyes!"

Old tears streamed down Jiang Mochen's face as he threw back his head and let out a long howl toward the sky.

"Heh, the Great Elder truly knows how to put on a show. He makes it sound so real."

"Exactly. It was clearly the cultivators of his branch who took the initiative to provoke Jiang Xuan..."

"Even if the family head handled things improperly, he should not have acted like this. This is our Jiang Family, yet he brought outsiders here to cause trouble for his own family. Heh, Jiang Yifei truly knows how to do things!"

The Jiang Family disciples below watched Jiang Yifei and the others in the air and could not help commenting.

As Jiang Family disciples, having another faction come to their door looking for trouble was undoubtedly a slap across every Jiang Family member's face!

"Yifei, where are this Jiang Xuan and that Jiang Wuhui you spoke of? We have been here for quite some time already. Why have they not come out to welcome us? Are we not welcome?"

The Heaven-Mending Sect Leader asked with a mocking expression.

He was a cultivator of Jiang Wuhui's generation, so he had naturally heard of Jiang Wuhui's reputation.

In his youth, Jiang Wuhui's name had shaken the Northern Region and the Eastern Wilderness. Nearly everyone knew of him, save for Central Province.

However, it was not a good reputation. He had made enemies everywhere and was hated by nearly every major faction.

Yet even so, no one had ever denied Jiang Wuhui's talent or strength. He had nearly swept through the entire Northern Region and Eastern Wilderness.

At that time, Jiang Wuhui had nearly crushed every person of his generation until they could barely breathe, and countless people regarded him as their rival.

The Heaven-Mending Sect Leader was one of them.

Later, for some unknown reason, Jiang Wuhui seemed to become a different person. He was no longer so flamboyant and had nearly withdrawn from the world.

This led many people in the Northern Region and Eastern Wilderness to speculate whether something had gone wrong with Jiang Wuhui's cultivation, leaving him with no choice but to tuck his tail between his legs and keep a low profile...

Thus, besides backing Jiang Yifei, the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader had another purpose in coming to the Jiang Family of the Northern Region this time.

That was to see whether Jiang Wuhui had truly suffered a problem in his cultivation, as the rumors claimed.

If the rumors were true, he could also vent the resentment from his youth, when Jiang Wuhui had suppressed him.

"If the God King Jiang does not welcome us, then we can only go see him ourselves!"

Anticipation flickered in the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader's eyes as he spoke.

As his words fell, the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader took a step through the air. The next moment, he was about to truly enter the Jiang Family.

Boom!

At that very moment, an endless, terrifying aura suddenly descended and instantly blasted the Heaven-Mending Sect Leader back.
