Jiang Zhen was shocked, sitting up and trembling as he pointed a finger at Ning Ye Chen.
"You... you're that woman's husband!"
He hadn't expected that the person who could easily defeat Song Yan, the Holy Lotus Sect's leader, and destroy his Jiang Family overnight, would be that woman's husband!
This man... besides his handsome and refined appearance, had nothing else particularly special...
The first time he saw Ning Ye Chen, he hadn't even given him a second glance...
Jiang Li also raised his head to look at Ning Ye Chen, his face filled with disbelief.
The pretty boy he had once mocked was actually the Demon Sovereign that this group spoke of...!
Yue Qing You saw that the Jiang father and son dared to sit up and look directly at Ning Ye Chen. Her brow furrowed slightly, and she reprimanded them coldly:
"Can you, mere ants, even look directly at the Demon Sovereign?"
"Kneel!"
As Yue Qing You's voice fell, Jiang Zhen and Jiang Li immediately knelt, their heads bowed. Their entire bodies were unable to move; they couldn't even lift their heads.
"The Demon Sovereign hasn't given you permission to speak, so you ants don't have the right to open your mouths."
Yue Qing You was very displeased with the Jiang family father and son's impolite attitude.
If the Demon Sovereign hadn't been present, she would have let those two experience what it meant to wish for death!
"It seems you are very surprised to see me."
Ning Ye Chen sneered coldly, looking down at Jiang Zhen and Jiang Li at his feet.
The reason he'd come all this way was to let them know exactly who they had offended.
And to do something he hadn't been able to do before, when he was with Luo Ru Ying and Luo Hong Ye.
"It's time to settle the score for your rudeness towards my wife that day, as well as your offense against this Sovereign."
Ning Ye Chen reached out a hand towards Jiang Li and gently clenched it. Jiang Li's limbs immediately began to twist and compress, gradually contorting his body into a ball!
"Aaaah!"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I was wrong!"
"Please, spare me!"
"Father, Father! Save me!"
"It hurts, it hurts…!"
Jiang Li cried out in pain and begged for mercy, desperately calling out to Jiang Zhen, who was kneeling on the ground beside him.
Jiang Zhen trembled all over, his eyes filled with fear. He couldn't even bring himself to care about Jiang Li.
Rather, he was now filled with hatred for this useless son of his!
If it weren't for him, the Qi Family might not have fallen to this state today!
His Qi Family's decades-long foundation had been ruined by this good-for-nothing, spendthrift son!
After compressing Jiang Li into a nearly spherical shape, Ning Ye Chen released his grip. He didn't choose to continue compressing him and kill him directly.
Because he wanted Jiang Li to maintain this posture, to experience the pain of his entire body twisting and breaking!
He'd wanted to slap him to death the moment Ning Ye Chen flirted with Luo Ru Ying in front of him.
Letting him live a few more days was just to make him watch the Jiang Family fall from grace to utter destruction, that's all.
Now, he'd changed his mind. No need to kill him just yet.
Let him wallow in regret and wail for a while first.
Ning Ye Chen turned his gaze towards the kneeling Jiang Zhen, smiled slightly, and said,
"I heard you specifically informed the Holy Lotus Sect to come and kill my wife?"
"And even vowed to spare no one?"
Jiang Zhen's pupils shrank when he heard Ning Ye Chen's words, his heart filled with despair and hopelessness.
He knows everything…
He knew everything about his planning and preparations at home these past few days…
Jiang Zhen knew that he would die tonight, and his death would probably be very miserable. The Jiang Family of Nanli City would also disappear from the world. Instead, he felt a lot more at ease. To go against someone so terrifying, the Jiang Family had long been destined for this…
"My Lord, may I ask you a few questions…"
Jiang Zhen knelt on the ground and begged.
"A mere ant dares to question the Demon Sovereign?"
Yue Qing You frowned slightly, and said coldly.
The terrifying pressure immediately pressed down, causing Jiang Zhen to spit out a mouthful of blood. He felt as if his internal organs were crushed…
Ning Ye Chen raised his arm, signaling Yue Qing You to withdraw her pressure, and said to Jiang Zhen indifferently, "Speak. I'll let you die with understanding."
"Th-thank you..."
"My lord, I just want to know if the Qi Family's Healing Spirit Liquid and Refining Immortal Pill were both given to the Qi Family by you...?"
Jiang Zhen weakly lay on the ground, his expression ashen, but he still forced himself to ask.
Before he died, he had to know the truth behind the sudden appearance of two pill formulas in the Qi Family, otherwise, he would not be reconciled...
He considered his business acumen to be no worse than the Qi Family's, and he knew even more about making money.
During the time he was with the Qi Family, he was also sincerely working for them, responsible for managing a certain street.
Because of his management, the profits of the street's business association increased several times over. However, he didn't receive any significant promotion from the Qi Family, but instead faced reprimands and criticism.
Because of his sharp insight, he grasped a business opportunity, realizing that a certain rare herb would become scarce in the future. He preemptively purchased large quantities of that precious medicinal material, achieving a monopoly and raising the price dozens of times.
Just because of this, he received numerous complaints and dissatisfaction, and was instead reprimanded and criticized by the Qi Family!
The Qi Family's philosophy was to benefit the people and provide convenience, not to seek high profits, which was completely contrary to his own beliefs.
It just so happened that the Holy Lotus Sect later approached the Qi Family, wanting to use the Qi Family to control Nanli City, but was directly rejected.
Therefore, he took the initiative to contact the Holy Lotus Sect, and with the help of the Holy Lotus Sect, he established the current Jiang Family.
He believed that he absolutely shouldn't have lost to the Qi Family!
His ideology was not wrong!
"Isn't it all about making money when a merchant conducts business?"
Ning Ye Chen was somewhat surprised that Jiang Zhen would specifically ask this question.
His face was filled with a strong desire to know the truth.
"That's right. The Qi Family's Healing Spirit Liquid and Refining Immortal Pill were both provided by this one."
"Is that so… Hahaha…"
"Then, I didn't lose to the Qi Family…!"
Jiang Zhen's miserable face revealed a relieved smile.
Finally, he implored Ning Ye Chen:
"My Lord, I know that even if I beg for mercy, you definitely won't spare me…"
"I only hope that my Lord can grant us father and son a swift death!"
Having witnessed the various miserable deaths of everyone in the mansion, it was impossible for Jiang Zhen not to be afraid.
He was just an ordinary mortal, at most having only undergone body tempering.
How could he not be afraid…
Especially now, seeing Yue Qing You's figure, he couldn't help but tremble all over, feeling utterly suffocated.
Jiang Li, groaning in pain beside him, heard Jiang Zhen's words and, disregarding his own physical agony, roared in terror:
"You old fool! You die yourself! I don't want to die!"
"Please, spare me!!"
"Once this old man dies, I'll be the head of the Jiang Family! I'll give you anything you want! Just spare me!"
Seeing Jiang Li still in this state, Jiang Zhen's face was ashen. His heart was filled with both sorrow and a sudden sense of relief.
With such a beast around, even if not tonight, the Jiang Family would probably be destroyed one day…
In a way, the Qi Family had still won by far…
