Chapter 10

Yunmeng.

A few days after Jiang Zongzhu and his family returned, they received a letter from their eldest daughter, saying that she heard about the Jiang Family and was coming back. The family was finally going to be reunited, so she was naturally happy.

On this day, the three Jiang Family members went out early and looked into the distance by the river, waiting to welcome the only two lotuses in their family.

The other lotus, Jiang Zongzhu and Lady Yu, were also waiting in the hall early, but they couldn't greet them in person due to etiquette.

Jiang Yanli was also a victim of the rumors, but the Jiang Family members felt that they couldn't lead their eldest sister astray. The Jiang Family still needed a conscience, so they agreed not to tell Jiang Yanli the truth.

So Jiang Yanli saw the three black-hearted lotuses who seemed to be forcing smiles.

She was the eldest sister, so she watched them grow up. When she saw them like this, she was very distressed. She pulled Jiang Xuan and said, "You've lost weight. Look at how haggard you are. It's not up to you to decide something like this. Don't be too sad. After all, the family can still be together. There are still many days ahead."

Wei Wuxian touched his rounder face and felt a little guilty. He wondered what kind of standard his eldest sister used to judge their weight.

Jiang Yanli's standard was the chubby figure of the little guy when he was four or five years old.

This was also why his eldest sister thought he was thin.

Seeing Jiang Yanli comforting them in turn, the black-hearted lotuses knew their goal had been achieved. They all smiled and said things like, "It's okay. Eldest sister, don't be too sad." Then they acted coquettishly and asked their eldest sister to make delicious food. Jiang Yanli also felt that his younger brother and sister had suffered, so he agreed.

The whole family was overjoyed, and it was even more heartwarming than before.

— — —

They were happy here, but the Wen Family was in an uproar.

As Jiang Xuan thought, no matter how much Wen Ruohan ignored Wen Chao, he was still his son. Now, because of his trust, he died in the hands of the Kim family. How could he not be sad?

Moreover, since the Kim family dared to kill the direct descendant of the Jiang family, they must have long been estranged from the Wen Family. It should be known that even if the Jiang Family was burned down, they wouldn't dare to kill Wen Chao and let him come back safely.

Traitors were more hateful than Japanese devils. In the eyes of the Wen Family, the Kim family, who used to be like a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy, now slapped the Wen Family in the face, was more hateful than the Lan family and the Jiang Family, who used to be troublesome.

Kim Kwang-sun also knew that he had been set up, but he could not explain. What could he say?

Say that the Kim family only killed the other people and did not touch Wen Chao?

Not to mention that the Wen Family did not believe it, even if they did, the two families would not rest until one of them was dead. He might as well take on this matter. When the time came to divide the military merits in the future, it would be a great merit.

He was also a person of character. He was the sworn brother of Master Nie and the Clan Lord. When the Nie family was in trouble, he did not say a word. Now that he had become enemies with the Wen Family, he turned around and contacted the Nie family to shamelessly harm Nie Ming?

This junior was subservient.

Nie Ming?

He was a nephew. Since the elders were like this, he could not be calculative. Thus, the two families reconciled again.

However, Kim Kwang-sun also felt embarrassed. He planned to deal with the Wen Family first before kicking the Nie family aside.

The war against the Wen Family officially began. Because the family emblem of the Wen Family was the sun, everyone called this battle the Sun Shooting Battle.

The Jiang Family kept their promise to the Lan family and was the first to attack the Wen Family.

The Lan family, the Nie family, and the Kim family followed closely behind.

Dozens of large and small families also joined in one after another and attacked Qi Mountain together.

The Jiang Family's frontline troops were led by Jiang Cheng and Wei Wuxian. Jiang Xuan was in command of the main camp. Jiang Zongzhu and Lady Yu were in charge of Lotus Pier to prevent an attack from the rear.

Jiang Yanli's martial arts were not high, so she could not command the battle like her sister. However, Jiang Xuan did not let her stay idle. She had her lead a few fairies who were not high in martial arts to treat the wounded from the frontline.

As a monarch who had led the extermination of the Demon Race, it was more dangerous for Jiang Xuan to stay in the middle of the army than it was for her on the front lines. After all, the strength of one person was limited, but the strength of many people was truly powerful.

However, the people of the Immortal Gate fought by the rules. It was easier to earn merits in the frontline. Therefore, the leaders of the other families all stayed in the frontline, except for Jiang Xuan and Kim Kwang-sun.

This was also the reason why Jiang Xuan was looked down upon even though the Jiang Family was the first to attack Qi Mountain. Everyone felt that she was just a woman who was afraid of death and was just collecting merits in the rear.

Jiang Xuan did not have time to care about these trivial matters. She was so busy that she did not even have time to eat. She was always looking at battle reports or maps while holding a bowl. After half a month, she had lost a lot of weight. The armor she made before could not even hold up. Jiang Yanli had to make it smaller for her.

There was nothing they could do about it. The battlefield was ever-changing. Even if there were no mistakes in their decisions, they could still fail due to luck. Moreover, a small mistake could result in the death of at least a hundred people. Furthermore, there were only a few thousand people in the immortal sects. Not everyone could enter the battlefield.

She commanded the children of the Jiang Family and the people of the Jiang Family's affiliated clans. These people were all trained by her and were also her close followers. She would be heartbroken if one of them was missing.

In addition, she had to keep an eye on the supplies and ensure that the main camp would not be raided. She was so busy that she was like a spinning top.

Just when she was so busy that she was about to explode, she received a message from the scouts in the middle of the army. A group of about four to five hundred people had appeared.

At that time, Jiang Xuan was eating while reading battle reports. When she saw this, she flipped the table. So many people had come to the middle, but there was no movement at the front line or the left and right lanes!

However, now was not the time to blame. Jiang Xuan suppressed her anger and sent three elite teams to the front line and left and right lanes to understand the situation. At the same time, she sent out scouts to find out where the Wen Clan's army came from, what their purpose was, and the specific situation of their march.

After that, she was no longer in the mood to eat. She looked at the map to see where was suitable for the operation and thought about how to fight.

This team was going to support Wen Xu.

Since the start of the war, the hatred of the Wen Clan had accumulated on the Kim family and the Nie family.

In fact, Jiang Xuan had been wondering why the main force of the Wen Clan didn't move to them, even though the Jiang Family's army was the fastest.

The Wen Clan couldn't be blamed. It was because the Jiang Family's war was too boring. They fought steadily and there were no exciting moments. No wonder people ignored them.

In contrast, the Kim family, who betrayed the Wen Clan and killed the second son of the Jiang Family, and the Nie family, who fought several exciting battles, received more attention. The main force of Wen Xu's army was also facing these two families.

According to the current situation, one of the two families had a top popularity, and the other was a place with explosive acting skills. Therefore, from time to time, they were on the hot search list. In the same TV series, there were both good looks and good acting skills, but the normal Jiang Family became a supporting role.

As for Wen Xu, although he was the main force, he was defeated by Nie Ming.

In the end, the Nie family and the Kim family were surrounded in Hejian.

Therefore, Wen Ruohan hurriedly sent people to support them. They took a shortcut and bumped into Jiang Xuan.

However, they didn't know how they crossed the front line and came to the middle.

They were also unlucky. They were marching peacefully, but the front line was blocked by an army. They didn't have any flags, and they started fighting without saying a word. There was no shouting or fighting before the battle.

There were many mountains here, and Jiang Xuan had already thought of the place where the battle would take place. It was at the exit of a valley. Therefore, the front line stopped, and the rear line was still rushing forward. For a moment, the sound of fighting filled the sky, and everyone was blocked here.

Wen Chao died early. He didn't tell them that this kind of strange immortal who liked to attack without saying a word and especially liked to ambush people were from the Jiang Family. They should just run when they met them.

The Jiang Family wasn't in a hurry, but the Wen Family couldn't. They still had to save their own Shaozong.

Therefore, the leader shouted with full spiritual power, "Retreat!" Then he exposed his position and was shot in the heart by Jiang Xuan.

The deputy general also realized what was going on. He ordered the remaining people to stay behind and delay the Jiang Family, and the rest to retreat to the valley.

Then they were ambushed.

The Jiang Family who ambushed them had been waiting here for a long time. They just let them go before.

The Jiang Family took advantage of the terrain. For a moment, sword lights and spiritual power flew all over the sky. The people blocking the entrance of the valley also took the opportunity to separate the front line and the rear line.

The Wen Family was worthy of being an aristocratic family that had ruled the Immortal Gate for many years. This group of people was also worthy of being called elites. Under such circumstances, they could still fight with the Jiang Family without showing any signs of weakness.

Gradually, the Jiang Family's advantage was not obvious. The encirclement also showed a little weakness.

If the main general was still here, he would have noticed that something was wrong. Although the deputy general also had experience in leading an army, it was his first time taking on such a big responsibility, so he was still unsettled. Without any doubt, he directed the rest of the people to rush to the weakest point and stepped directly into the illusory matrix set up by the Jiang family.

The Wen Family was confused and disoriented in the array. The Jiang Family pointed at them one by one with bows and arrows outside the array.

To Jiang Xuan's surprise, this group of people, after the initial panic, actually ignored the Jiang Family's secret arrows and could still calm down to break the array. They steadily and slowly walked out step by step.

The Wen Family was worthy of being the most powerful immortal family!

Jiang Xuan couldn't help but sigh. The Jiang Family and other families couldn't catch up with the accumulation of thousands of years of experience.

The battle had already reached this stage. If it were other families, they would have given up long ago. However, the Wen Family still didn't lose their fighting spirit.

However, when the Wen Family came out of the array, there were less than a hundred people left. Everyone present knew clearly that the remaining people couldn't support Wen Xu anymore. The Wen Family's defeat was certain.

The Wen Family now had only two choices. One was to surrender.

The Wen Family chose the second choice without hesitation. One by one, the cultivators gathered the last of their spiritual power, rushed to the Jiang Family's camp, and then self-exploded. They would rather die than drag the Jiang Family down with them.

The Jiang Family's disciples hurriedly used the sword array to resist, but many of them were still seriously injured.

This battle lasted for eight hours. In the end, many people who had just entered the battlefield couldn't even lift their arms.

Jiang Xuan wiped the blood on her face. She was also in a bad mood.

She thought, if she was in such a situation, what would she do?

She definitely wouldn't choose death, but that didn't stop her from respecting this group of people.

There were many people like this here. Even if she felt that Lan Xichen was pedantic, Nie Ming?

Naive? The Wen Family's people in front of her were stubborn. However, she had to admit that when the building was about to collapse, these people were the ones who rushed to the forefront and supported the sky with their backs.

Although they couldn't reach the high mountain, they yearned for it.

Jiang Xuan asked Jiang Yanli to lead people to treat the wounded. Then she ordered people to collect the bones of the Jiang Family and Wen Family's people who died here. Then she returned to the camp.

The Jiang Family's losses in this battle were not small. Jiang Xuan ordered the troops to rest and recuperate. They would continue to march when the frontline sent back a message.

War was always like this. There were always few who won with fewer people. No matter how powerful the generals were, they couldn't avoid casualties. Leading a group of people to fight here and there and then winning a total victory only existed in novels.
