Chapter Twelve

Lead by Jiang Wushuang Uncles, Chu Feng and Lu Bu traveled towards the Boundless City.

On their way towards the Boundless City, Chu Feng has learned Jiang Wushuang's two uncles' names through Lu Bu and their conversation.

They were respectively called Jiang Menglin and Jiang Xuanqi.

Jiang Menglin was a middle-aged man with a black beard. On their journey, Chu Feng discerns Jiang Menglin usually wore a frowning look for some reason. On the other hand, Juang Xuanqi seems quite better. He always put a wide smile on his face and in contrast to Jiang Menglin dressed, he wore white martial-clothing.

Chu Feng felt that it was unusual for a young boy at the age of 10 to not respect the Elderly who were worthy of its title. Hence, to show proper etiquette, as the Main Character Quote 'Not too Humble nor Proud', Chu Feng addressed them as Uncle Lin and Uncle Qi respectively.

Chu Feng was quite interested in Jiang Wushuang as he was the sworn brother of the Main Character whom Chu Feng idolized, hence he asked Uncle Qi about Jiang Wushuang.

Uncle Qi's replies were as accurate as what Chu Feng had read from the Main Novel. But some minor changes that Chu Feng had not learned were becoming apparent. According to him, Jiang Wushuang was the prince and the son of Jiang Clan of Boundless City. He was the sole member who awakened his Royal Bloodline which was not the case in the main novel. However, on this timeline, these changes were visible to Chu Feng's naked eyes, as a fan of Martial God Asura.

But Jiang Wushuang's Royal Bloodline seems not to be revealed by the public according to Uncle Qi for some certain reasons.

Chu Feng changed the topic and asked the reason why they were attacked by a bunch of Assassins

Jiang Xuanqi simply replied with some words. From what he has said, the reason they were attacked by the Assassins most likely because Juang Wushuang was a talented young boy who had reached the Peak of Origin Realm at the age of 9, and Profound Realm at the age of 10.

"We never expected they would even willing to pay a hefty sum to hire Assassins of Samsara Assassin Temple. Those bastards! They would do such savage things to a child even if it means to kill the future threat of their clan!" Jiang Menglin grumbled.

Chu Feng glanced at him. Because the journey was lead by Jiang Xuanqi and Jiang Menglin, the journey slowed down considerably. Hence, half a day later of their journey, Jiang Xuanqi and Jiang Menglin were no longer unfamiliar with Lu Bu and Chu Feng, as they showed their personalities.

"Hmph, that Zi Clan's Patriarch is truly vicious. The Jiang Clan has been declining ages ago, and the once before Jiang Dynasty has become a small clan located in a small City, living peacefully. However, there are still people that immoral enough to act for their benefit and kill those that were threats. Can they just spare us?" Juang Menglin said. He turned right, darting his somewhat red eyes to the vast sea.

Jiang Xuanqi sighed seeing this and remained silent. Lu Bu continued his pace behind Chu Feng while Jiang Wushuang was hovering from his beside, asleep. However, it seems that Lu Bu was not interested in their struggle and history.

Everyone in the group took note of Jiang Menglin abnormal behavior when expressing his emotion including Chu Feng, of course. Jiang Xuanqi might already know the reason behind it from the sigh that escaped his lips, but Lu Bu and Chu Feng were not in the same case.

Lu Bu's interest was not piqued but Chu Feng was. Hence, taking a step closer, he came near at Jiang Xuanqi and said in low volume, "Uncle Qi, what's wrong with Uncle Lin? Is there something bothering him?"

Although Chu Feng already knows that Jiang Menglin has some kind of history, it was better to act like an ignorant child than an adult on a child's body.

Jiang Xuanqi looked at Chu Feng and sighed, "It's better not to tell you, Nephew Feng. This matter is something I couldn't divulge without his permission."

"It's okay. He can know," said Jiang Menglin at this moment. His eyes were now clear. The redness that was present not too long ago has faded. He glanced at Chu Feng and began narrating it, "Nephew Feng, as you might not know, the Jiang Clan was once a Dynasty that ruled the Eastern Sea Region ages ago. However, because of our Ancestor that has ascended to the Higher Realms, the Jiang Clan lost its power..."

"As you reach a certain realm, the Ascension Force will forcefully eject you from the mundane world. This happened to our Ancestors who stayed long in the mundane world as he was forced to Ascend to the Higher Realm. Prior to his departure, he left many treasures, built powerful formations, and nurtured capable experts. When he will ascend, these experts would be a great help for us. However, because of certain someone, the Jiang Dynasty fall into chaos. Not long after, various clans and organizations started a rebellion. As a result, the Jiang Dynasty fell apart, leaving the remnant of small surviving external Jiang Members who have diluted bloodlines. These surviving external Jiang Members then settled in the Boundless City as a small clan."

Chu Feng at this point had understood the situation a bit better. He never thought the Jiang Dynasty was this prosperous from their Era. However, as he thought deeper, Chu Feng knew that this was not the history of Jiang Clan of the Martial God Asura Novel Main Storyline. The actual reason behind all of these changes was because Chu Feng had triggered the Modification of the Main Storyline, which most likely changes everything even in the Eastern Sea Region...The unheard Samsara Assassin Temple, the Reclusive Region, and perhaps more to come.

He looked deeply at Jiang Menglin, as Jiang Menglin continued, "However, although the external members of Jiang Clan have diluted bloodline of Royals, that doesn't mean they don't have it. In fact, they simply couldn't awaken their bloodline for how thin it is. However, years ago, a certain member of our Jiang Clan awakened her Royal Bloodline, this brings joy to our clan, us Jiangs. However, happiness never lasts long. Someone leaked the news causing that member of our clan to fall in danger. She, who awakened the Royal Bloodline, was kidnapped by strong cultivators of Reclusive Region, they stripped her bloodline, raped her, and killed her after!"

At this point, Jiang Menglin eyes turned bloodshot. Some tears gush out from his eyes down to his cheeks. This made Chu Feng sympathy Jiang Menglin. No wonder he always wore that kind of look. Chu Feng knew that it was inappropriate to ask who was that woman to Jiang Menglin as a kid, hence he commanded Lu Bu in his stead to ask the question.

"That kind of heinous act is not something I, Lu Bu, am fond of. Who was that woman to you? And who are these people that kidnapped her?" Lu Bu glanced at him, his voice was somewhat hoarse.

Jiang Menglin, when he heard the Mysterious Senior, which surname was Lu Bu, had his eyes brightened. If this powerful Senior can help him take revenge, perhaps this enmity that lasted for a lifetime might finally end. He took a deep breath and said, "Senior that person is my...Daughter. While the person behind that kidnapped her is..."

"...The Immortal Execution Archipelago!"

As he said that, Chu Feng, Lu Bu, Jiang Menglin, Jiang Xuanqi, and the sleeping Jiang Wushuang have arrived at the Boundless City!

Precisely, they were five kilometers away from the main gate...

But Chu Feng's sight was not focused on the City but rather on his subconscious mind...Because a mechanical voice, that almost sounded at the same time Jiang Menglin mentioned the Immortal Execution Archipelago, had reverberated into his mind.

"Ding! The host has triggered the Sub Story Line: The Fall of Immortal Execution Archipelago!"

"Host is free to choose whether to accept the mission. However, the generous reward will be waiting for you~~"

"The Fall of Immortal Execution Archipelago?" Chu Feng thought. "Accept!"

"Ding! Mission accepted!"

"First Step: Take full control of Boundless City. Become its City Lord and increase your reputation to the citizens of Boundless City. Completing the First Step, Host will gain 50,000 N.P and One Chance of Character Roulette."

"Second Step: After gaining full control of Boundless City, spread your influence, and take control of the neighboring lands and cities. Completing the Second Step, Host will gain 100,000 N.P and One Chance Character Roulette and Artifact Roulette."

"Final Step: When Host took full control of the neighboring power, wage war to the Immortal Execution Archipelago and eradicate them! Completing the final step, Host will earn 500,000 N.P, One Chance of Rare Character Roulette and One Chance of Epic Artifacts Roulette."

"Note: Host is required to follow the steps. If not, the Host will not acquire the following rewards. Directly annihilating the Immortal Execution Archipelago means the Mission is severed. The host will not acquire the rewards, but there would be no punishment. But to follow these steps means Host will become a capable Emperor of the Near Future. If you have powerful strength but without powerful subordinates, you are just a lamb waiting to be slaughtered by numerous hordes."
