Urban Cultivation: The master who has overcome the tribulation is reborn

One that is above all of you.

As soon as these words came out, Li Haocheng's pupils suddenly contracted.

He screamed in his heart.

You are just an ordinary person who has achieved some success in martial arts. Why do you act so pretentiously? !

How can you pretend like this?!

Li Haocheng's heart was pounding for a moment and he couldn't tell what he was feeling.

He inexplicably felt that before Jiang Ran said this in a matter-of-fact tone,

Even if he was given ten thousand chances to speak, he would not be able to say such words that were almost arrogant to the extreme.

"One is fine, two is fine."

Li Haocheng was silent for a long time before he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"It's all personal effort. If you rely on yourself alone, you will eventually run out of energy."

He tried to keep his tone calm.

Li Hao was born into a wealthy and noble family. He was the only one who acted in front of others, and it was never someone else's turn to act like him.

Therefore, I felt inexplicably dissatisfied with Jiang Ran.

"Master Jiang, I will make one last offer."

"One hundred million in cash, plus three natural medicinal herbs over a hundred years old, and ten perfect women for you to practice with."

"And... the chance to become a priest of my Li family."

Li Haocheng spoke almost word by word until the end.

"The above conditions combined will be exchanged for Gu Longzhang's body, as well as the lives of Jiang Shoucheng and Xiao Songping."

"I will take care of the consequences of your murder in Changning District for you."

When Jiang Shoucheng heard this, his expression became somewhat unbelievable.

He simply could not imagine that Li Hao would offer such a price in order to save both him and Xiao Songping.

Jiang Shoucheng actually knew it too.

Gu Longzhang died at the hands of Jiang Ran. After all, it was a contest between two warriors, so let’s not talk about the subsequent impact for now.

It would have been fine if he and Xiao Songping had been killed earlier, but they were spared.

At the same time, he told Li Haocheng everything that happened here, which meant that,

No matter how much it costs, this direct descendant of the Li family must find a way to protect them first.

It has nothing to do with anything else, it’s simply to maintain the reputation of the Jiangdong Li family.

Li Haocheng tried to win over Jiang Ran and wanted him to be the new worshiper. Part of the reason was that he wanted to take advantage of the situation and win over a young master.

Another reason is to downplay Gu Longzhang's death.

Being able to understand this truth and being surprised by the conditions given by Li Haocheng do not actually conflict with each other.

Jiang Ran raised his eyes and looked around.

The only sound on the phone was Li Haocheng's breathing, which seemed even but slightly slower than before.

Xiao Songping, who was a little further away from Jiang Ran, looked at his profile anxiously, not knowing what had happened.

Jiang Shoucheng, who was nearby, had a flickering look in his eyes, but he could not tell any emotion from Jiang Ran's indifferent expression.

"Mr. Jiang!"

A gentle female voice sounded behind him. Jiang Shoucheng was startled and turned around suddenly.

It turned out to be Xia Wanwan, with her hair hanging down on her shoulders and her beautiful eyes wandering.

Jiang Shoucheng subconsciously glanced at the stairs and saw some uneasiness on Zhao Laowu's face.

Xie Heng on the other side had a stern face and it was hard to tell what his mood was.

His thoughts immediately began to race.

Jiang Shoucheng's habit is to start thinking when he encounters something, so that he can judge the situation more quickly.

When he heard Xia Wanwan, who was jogging down the stairs, call him Mr. Jiang in a familiar voice, he immediately realized that something was wrong.

He had some impression of this attractive woman, who was Zhao Laowu's right-hand man.

Logically speaking, he definitely belongs to the Xie family faction.

In the series of events that happened before, he did not notice any friendship between Jiang Ran and Xie Heng.

At most, we are acquaintances and have some overlap on some things.

Xia Wanwan, who suddenly appeared beside him at this moment, made him a little puzzled.

But then Jiang Shoucheng thought of a terrifying possibility, that is, Xia Wanwan came closer,

The purpose was to persuade Jiang Ran to kill them.

This was not his groundless worry. It was very likely that when Xie Heng encountered such an opportunity to take advantage of someone's misfortune, he would ask Xia Wanwan to assist.

After all, he had just framed Xie Yuan and forced Xie Heng to use Lin Huaizhang's trump card.

If he hadn't met Jiang Ran, it would have been reasonable for him to find a way to bring up Xiao Songping behind the scenes after Zhu Shao arrived.

There is a high probability that Xie Heng will lose everything and have to watch him reap the fruits of his labor.

If he was killed by Jiang Ran, the person who would benefit the most would obviously be Xie Heng.

Xia Wanwan's gentle call made Jiang Ran withdraw his gaze and focus on her beautiful face. He snorted softly, "Hmm?"

"I just asked Executive Xie and Mr. Zhu, and they said that Jiang Shoucheng's call was most likely to the Li family."

“Although I don’t know which Jiangdong Li family member he is, but since Xiao Songping was able to mobilize so many people, and Gu Longzhang followed him, he is most likely a direct descendant of the Li family.”

Xia Wanwan knew Jiang Ran's temper better than anyone else present. After quickly making her guess, she gave a gentle suggestion.

"I'm not telling you not to be an enemy of the Li family."

Xia Wanwan didn't think that she could suppress Jiang Ran with her identity and background.

Therefore, every word she said was carefully considered.

"Think about it, Gu Longzhang's death in your hands was entirely his own fault, and the Li family has nothing to say about the fight between warriors."

"But Xiao Songping and Jiang Shoucheng are not worth mentioning at all. They pose no threat to you. After this battle, they may even be in awe of you."

"It's easy for you to kill them or let them go. If you spare their lives, maybe you can bargain with the Li family and get more benefits."

Xia Wanwan said this carefully, and seeing Jiang Ran's slightly thoughtful expression, she quickly added,

"Besides, you killed so many people in Shenhe Manor. Once the matter is made public, even if you don't care, it will still have an impact."

"It would be better to put forward the condition of dealing with the aftermath. The Li family will definitely agree."

When she said this, her beautiful eyes flickered, expressing her concern without any concealment.

"Mr. Jiang, what do you think?"

The woman's gentle voice fell into his ears, and Jiang Shoucheng only reacted now.

He dared to swear that he had thought about Xia Wanwan coming over to add fuel to the fire or to put on some eye drops, but he never expected that this woman would actually come to speak for the two of them.

Regardless of the fact that the other party belittled the two of them as if they were not worth mentioning, what he actually meant was to persuade Jiang Ran to release the people.

The act of this confidant of the enemy camp standing up to speak for him made Jiang Shoucheng feel a little overwhelmed.

While he was still dumbfounded, Li Haocheng's loud laughter could be heard faintly from the phone.

"Hahahaha...Master Jiang, what this lovely girl said is true."

"Face is something that is given to each other by you taking a step back and me taking a step back. As a master, you should understand the principle that the strong will break easily."

"It is better to retreat than to advance. Please save some face for the Jiangdong Li clan today."

"We will know in the future how correct this decision is."

Xia Wanwan was standing closer to Jiang Shoucheng, so she also heard what was said. She couldn't help but look up with a look of concern.

Her thoughts were simple.

Jiang Ran came to Changning District for Lu Yu Niang's daughter and was inexplicably involved in the incident. He offended someone in Shenhe Manor.

It's really too much.

Let’s not talk about Zhu Yonghai for now, let’s just talk about his nephew Zhu Shao, who holds a high position and is also a well-known figure in Qingjiang Province.

In addition, Lin Huaizhang, who has a close relationship with the Xie family, is not much inferior to Zhu Shao.

Jiang Ran acted so recklessly, and there would obviously be a lot of trouble in the future, but if he could get in touch with the Li family,

These troubles will no longer be troubles, and many problems will be solved easily.

Xia Wanwan agreed with what Mr. Zhao Wu said. The boundary between friends and enemies is actually very subtle, and it is basically just about interests.

As long as the benefits are sufficient, friends can become enemies, and enemies can be made friends.

The impact of killing Gu Longzhang and so many others could be easily resolved by releasing Xiao Songping and Jiang Shoucheng.

At the same time, it can also give face to this direct descendant of the Li family. There is simply no more cost-effective deal than this.

"Master Jiang."

Jiang Shoucheng still felt the pain of having his teeth knocked out, but he could no longer detect any trace of resentment and hatred towards Jiang Ran.

It is unknown whether he was hiding his true intentions or the strength displayed by the other party made him sober.

After he noticed that Li Haocheng said those words with a smile, Jiang Ran, who looked like he was thinking, spoke carefully.

"If I remember correctly, Chu Jichuan, that blind fellow, must have offended you, so he had to flee thousands of miles away from Nandu, right?"

Before Jiang Ran could respond, he smiled self-deprecatingly.

"I didn't expect that I, who have always been careful, would offend you unintentionally today."

"Although this slap hurts, I am different from Chu Jichuan. I am only glad that I have offended a martial arts grandmaster and received such a light punishment. I will only feel grateful and will never dare to feel resentment."

"I hope that Master Jiang, you will forgive me and spare my life for Mr. Li's sake."

How arrogant Jiang Shoucheng was in Tianweiju, and how arrogant he was towards Jin Ruoyun and his daughter.

How funny and humble he looked with his swollen face smirking in front of Jiang Ran.

"Mr. Jiang!"

Seeing that Jiang Ran had not responded, Xia Wanwan was afraid that he might make a wrong decision without careful consideration.

After thinking about it again and again, he couldn't help but called out again.

Jiang Ran might have fallen into deep thought, or maybe not at all.

The spiritual energy of the Moonlight Stone in his arms was no longer enough to maintain his spiritual vision, but he could still vaguely feel that

The spiritual inspiration of heaven and earth that was far greater than that of Zhu Shao and Lin Huaizhang seemed to be accelerating as time went by.

Judging from spiritual perception, the scope of these spiritual inspirations of heaven and earth is vast, and the areas and creatures involved are even wider.

And the source of all these fluctuations seemed to come from the man on the other end of the phone.

The sixteenth generation grandson of the Jiangdong Li family, Li Haocheng.

After Xia Wanwan called out softly, Jiang Ran lowered his eyes and looked at Jiang Shoucheng, and spoke to Xia Wanwan first.

"You don't have to worry, I'll take care of everything."

He knew clearly why Xia Wanwan said these words, so he was not annoyed.

He could still distinguish between genuine concern and hypocritical humility.

His eyes swept across Xia Wanwan, whose lips were slightly open but who did not continue speaking, and paused for a while at Jiang Shoucheng's face, which looked flattering and humble.

Jiang Ran then spoke.

The first sentence was still not addressed to Jiang Shoucheng.

"Li Haocheng."

"You seem to have made a mistake."

His tone didn't change much, just a little more indifferent than when he spoke to Xia Wanwan.

"Face is not something that is given to each other, but something that you have to earn for yourself."

Li Haocheng, who had been waiting with his phone on the table for a long time, turned completely cold when he heard these words.

"Master Jiang, are you trying to tell me that you plan to fight for this honor on your own?"

"Think it over carefully. Once you make some decisions, there is no chance to regret them."

Li Haocheng slowed down his voice and said something that Xia Wanwan felt was somewhat familiar.

"Don't say you didn't predict what you said."

Jiang Ran seemed not to have heard his warning. He shook his head and sighed softly.

"Aristocratic family, a powerful clan, a wealthy family, a noble family."

“Whether here or there, he has the same arrogance and confidence.”

"Your Li family is the same. What's the problem with being hundreds of years away from Jiangdong?"

"If you want me to save some face, you have to see if you, the Jiangdong Li family, are qualified!"

After Jiang Ran finished speaking, everything seemed to be silent.

Jiang Shoucheng was stunned and couldn't believe what he heard.

Xia Wanwan's brows were tightly knitted together, and the helplessness in her expression was about to overflow.

She should have thought of it earlier.

"Jiang Ran! I'm warning you!" Li Haocheng was stunned for a second, and when he reacted, he immediately jumped up and down like crazy.

At this moment, he completely threw aside his self-cultivation and the principle of not showing his emotions.

For more than thirty years, he has been the center of attention and everyone is inferior to him. When has he ever heard such outrageous words?

He was so angry that his hands were shaking.

"If you dare to touch any of them today, I, the Jiangdong Li clan, will grind you to ashes!!"

"I want to see if you alone can defeat my Li family's 400-year heritage!"

Jiang Ran was baptized by his violent words, and his eyes and emotions did not change at all.

After Li Haocheng roared the last word, he threw the phone up and spoke calmly.

"The Li family has a 400-year heritage. What about you? Who do you think you are?"

This simple sentence completely detonated Li Haocheng, making him blush, gasp and roar wildly.

"I want you to die!"

"Jiang Ran! I want you to die without a burial place!"

Jiang Shoucheng looked at the phone thrown by Jiang Ran, listened to the sharp scream that gradually faded away, and couldn't help swallowing.

Even though he knew that Jiang Ran was a master with extraordinary strength, he never thought about it from beginning to end.

The other party would actually have such an attitude when facing a behemoth like the Jiangdong Li family.

You know, even a martial arts master like Gu Longzhang would mention his identity as the Li family's worshiper when he was defeated.

This shows that deep down, the Grand Master also believes that the Li family has the ability to intimidate others.

Only Jiang Ran's behavior, whether from the surface or deeper, does not seem like that of a normal person.

Today in Shenhe Manor, he offended almost everyone he could, and at the same time he just blocked his last path.

Jiang Shoucheng's head was smoking, and he couldn't figure out why he acted like this.

"Is there anyone else?" Jiang Ran's voice suddenly sounded, causing him to shudder all over.

Subconsciously looking up and meeting those deep and indifferent pupils, Jiang Shoucheng revealed a more submissive and flattering smile than before.

He knew that the other party's bland words were a question about whether there was anyone who wanted to move out.

But even bringing up the Jiangdong Li family was useless. Jiang Shoucheng had no other choice but to speak in a crying voice.

"Master Jiang..."

Just as he called out a name, he saw Jiang Ran in front of him casually stretch out his hand, and then retracted it in an instant, but there was an extra object in his palm.

Jiang Shoucheng always felt that he looked familiar.

"Since there is no one else here, then you can just die."
