Chapter 416: Severely Injured Ji Family
"Grandma, which way are we going?" Su Siyi was directing with an expectant smile on her face.
"Turn left and walk through two corridors and you'll be there." Ji Mei said. She knew the layout of the Ji family very well and quickly led everyone to the door of the warehouse.
Su Wenying stepped forward, gathering all his spiritual energy and slamming his fist into the warehouse door. With a resounding bang, the door blew open, sending up a cloud of dust. Everyone entered the warehouse, only to be met with a somewhat disappointing sight.
"Grandma, it feels like the things in this warehouse are not as many as those in the Li family's storage ring!" Su Wenxin looked at the sparse items in the warehouse and couldn't help but frowned, with a look of disgust on her face.
"Here's the list. Find the things on it first, and then you can take what you like!" Ji Mei said to her family, pulling out a yellowed list that recorded her mother's dowry and some important items.
"Okay!" Everyone nodded and began to search for items according to the list. They rummaged through the warehouse, carefully searching every corner. However, in the end, they only found half of the items on the list. Perhaps some of the items had already been used by the Ji family or hidden somewhere else. However, they didn't hesitate and picked up many items here. Although these items were not particularly valuable, they were better than nothing.
Now, all the cultivation resources of the Ji family have been robbed. After this war, the Ji family has been severely damaged. It is unknown whether they can recover from this disaster and regain their foothold in the world of cultivation.
"Brother Nangong, are there any others coming?" Su Siyi ran briskly to Nangong Jingming's side, her eyes revealing a hint of vigilance and curiosity. She was panting slightly, the excitement of looting the Ji family's warehouse had not yet completely dissipated, and now she was worried about whether other reinforcements from the Ji family would arrive.
"No, maybe their messenger didn't even get through." Nangong Jingming frowned slightly, scanning his surroundings as he speculated calmly. He thought to himself that the brothers he had assigned to guard the various families were highly skilled, and they must have given the messenger from the Ji family no opportunity to get through, which prevented them from incurring any additional trouble.
"You made the arrangements in time!" Su Siyi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a relieved smile. She understood that it was precisely because Nangong Jingming had made thorough arrangements in advance and arranged for people to cut off the Ji family's message transmission that their actions in the Ji family were so smooth and worry-free.
"Grandma, do we need to destroy all these people?" Su Wenying cast his eyes at the Ji family members collapsed on the ground, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes. Then he turned to look at Ji Mei and respectfully asked his grandmother. He knew in his heart that his grandmother had suffered a lot in the Ji family, and now that her revenge had been achieved, he felt that he should respect her decision on how to deal with these Ji family members.
"No need, I have already destroyed the cultivation of those who bullied me, so just let them go!" Ji Mei sighed softly, her eyes revealing a trace of fatigue and relief. She looked at those who had spoken ill of her and bullied her in every way, and the resentment in her heart had dissipated a lot after she personally destroyed the cultivation of Ji Yue and others. Moreover, she knew very well the current situation of the Ji family. Even if she let these people go, it would be extremely difficult for the Ji family to develop again in the future. After all, they had already plundered the Ji family's cultivation resources. In this highly competitive world of cultivation, without the support of resources, the Ji family would soon be swallowed up by other families. She thought that she would just wait and watch the excitement of the rise and fall of this family, and there was no need to kill them all.
"Okay, then let's go, Grandma!" Su Wenying nodded. He understood Grandma's thoughts and respected her decision. So, he turned around and waved to the Su family, signaling everyone to prepare to leave.
The Su family carried their harvest and left the Ji family in an orderly manner. Their figures gradually faded away in the afterglow of the setting sun, leaving only the Ji family in a mess.
At this moment, Ji Lin's eyes were tightly closed, his face as pale as paper. He had fainted from anger. His body was trembling slightly, as if he was still bearing the huge impact of this family tragedy. The entire Ji family had been severely damaged after this heavy blow.
The Ji family's elite members are now either disabled or injured, and their cultivation resources have been completely wiped out. Maintaining their status in this world of cultivation, where the strong reign supreme, is no easy task. Their former glory has vanished like a passing cloud, and the Ji family's future is shrouded in a bleak shadow.
"Dad, why didn't anyone from the other families come to help?" Ji Yue lay on the ground, her breath weak. Although her cultivation had been crippled, she still held onto a glimmer of hope, desperately hoping someone would come to rescue her. Her eyes revealed reluctance and despair, yet she stubbornly refused to give up that glimmer of hope.
She was crippled, but she still had her uncle. He was a direct descendant of the Wang family, holding a high position in the family. His cultivation was even stronger than her father's. Ji Yue's eyes lit up when she thought of her uncle. She secretly calculated that if her uncle learned of her experience, he would bring the Wang family to avenge her.
"How should I know? Someone, go investigate. Why hasn't anyone come?" Ji Lin's face was gloomy, his eyes burning with anger and confusion. He had thought that his call for help would prompt other cultivator families to rush to his aid, but until now, there had been no response at all, leaving him furious and uneasy. He glared fiercely at his men, as if blaming them for their incompetence.
"Yes!" A servant stepped forward tremblingly and answered in a trembling voice. He didn't dare to look directly into Ji Lin's eyes, which seemed to want to kill him. He lowered his head and hurriedly took the order and left.
Unfortunately, the investigators they sent out lost contact one after another. Nangong Jingming had anticipated that the Ji family would seek help from other families. He had arranged for his team to set up ambushes at various key points, successfully intercepting all the messengers and investigators. Those who were intercepted were apprehended before they could pass on the message.
The Ji family waited and waited, but there was no sign of rescue. Ji Yue spent every day filled with anticipation, glancing toward the gate countless times, hoping to see the Wang family arriving in full force. But as the days passed, her hopes gradually faded. Not even the Wang family member she most expected showed up. Her former pride and confidence completely collapsed at that moment, leaving Ji Yue with only endless fear and despair.
