Chapter 492: Chapter 492: Eruption!

Looking at the distant Tang Zhong, everyone was deeply shocked in their hearts.

The achievements Tang Zhong made at around twenty years old could only be called a legend in their own twenties.

"Major General..." Jiang Nantian muttered this title, his mouth fumbling, "How is that possible, how is that possible?"

Jiang Nantian’s pupils were wide open, disbelieving at the scene before him.

"These people must be fake!" Jiang Nantian comforted himself, but his gaze flickered over the vehicles and the soldiers.

The military plates on the vehicles were unique and irreplicable, and those soldiers, the red stars on their shoulders, were genuine, glimmering golden.

So, all of this was real.

In Jiang Nantian’s eyes, his earlier luck gradually turned into fear.

If this was true, it meant Tang Zhong was a Major General. A Major General was not terrifying to the Jiang Family, but what was terrifying was his age; so young to have become a Major General.

In his lifetime, he had seen many outstanding figures, who could be called geniuses, but now, Tang Zhong was no longer just a genius – he was a phenomenon.

How could such a phenomenon be the discarded child of the Tang Family?

Suddenly, recalling the recent downfall of the Tang Family, Jiang Nantian’s gaze fell once more on Tang Zhong. He realized how foolish he had been; the Tang Family had been stable for so many years, how could it suddenly collapse?

The night before, Tang Ran died, Tang Lin was captured, and the high level of the Tang Family vanished; all these events must be greatly related to the person not far away.

"I was so foolish, so very foolish!" Jiang Nantian murmured.

He should have realized sooner that Tang Zhong’s return was related to everything.

This time, truly, the ancestors of the Tang Family had blinded him.

"Family Head... what should we do now?" a high-ranking member of the Tang Family from the Martial Realm asked with a trembling voice.

"..." Jiang Nantian wanted to speak, but ultimately, he kept his mouth shut.

He had nothing to say; it seemed the fate of the Jiang Family was no longer in their hands.

Moreover, no matter how many connections or how much power the Jiang Family had in politics, the military, and business, it couldn’t compare with a twenty-year-old who had become the pillar of the Scholarly Realm and peerless in the Martial Realm; there was simply no comparison.

And as Jiang Nantian spoke, the hearts of all the high-ranking members of the Jiang Family sank.

Looking at that figure in the distance, it seemed this time, the Jiang Family really had no chance to turn things around.

Other tycoons were also looking at the distant figure, thankful that they hadn’t provoked that person, or else the only path left would have been a dead end.

Even Wu Shanhe, Elder Wei, and Wei Xiaoqing were truly shocked. Tang Zhong being appointed as a Major General was minor; what was terrifying was that Tang Zhong was a young Grandmaster, which was the most shocking of all.

Looking at the grim faces of the crowd ahead, the three couldn’t help but laugh. A mere Major General had left them speechless; if they revealed Tang Zhong’s status as a Martial Arts Grandmaster, likely superior to the first on the Master List, the place would be completely astounded. That was Tang Zhong’s strongest identity.

But on further thought, if that were actually revealed, the entire nation would be astounded!

At that moment, Tang Zhong received the golden military order.

"General Tang, my mission this time was to appoint you. Now that it’s completed, I shall take my leave," Li Linglong said with a smile.

"Thank you, Great General!" Tang Zhong greeted respectfully.

Just as he looked up, he saw Li Linglong winking at him, whispering in an extremely soft voice, "How about that, Brother Tang! Wasn’t I honorable?"

"Absolutely!" Tang Zhong also whispered back.

"Enjoy it, brother. My Master wants to meet you, come to Dragon Group someday!" Li Linglong said.

"Alright!" Tang Zhong agreed.

With such a disposition, Tang Zhong recognized this brother for a lifetime.

Their little gestures went unnoticed by everyone.

Li Linglong once again regained his imposing demeanor, saying, "In the future, when we meet again, General Tang, I shall take my leave now!"

"Hmm!" Tang Zhong nodded.

He watched as Li Linglong walked out from the crowd like a king, climbed into a military vehicle at a distance, and quickly disappeared.

Here, there hadn’t been much change; the greatest change was only the military gold order in Tang Zhong’s hand.

At this moment, as Tang Zhong watched Li Linglong depart, he then turned around to face Jiang Nantian in the near distance. It was time to settle everything. He smiled indifferently, "Family Head Jiang, I’ve heard you want to challenge me?"

A challenge?

Jiang Nantian no longer dared. The man in front of him had ultimately transformed from a monkey shackled in chains into the awe-inspiring Great Sage Equalling Heaven, supreme in the world. This time, Jiang Nantian had truly lost.

In the entire country, at this age, how many had achieved such feats?

Even the founding patriarch of the past might not compare to the man before him.

This time, the Jiang Family might truly be facing a great disaster.

Looking at Tang Zhong in the distance, Jiang Nantian finally managed a bitter smile. "Our Jiang Family does not dare..."

"Louder, I didn’t hear clearly!" Tang Zhong said with a laugh.

At this moment, Jiang Nantian’s face turned from red to dark red, and finally to a forced black. He knew that the Jiang Family’s influence was gone, with no room for recovery.

"Family Head..." exclaimed the high-ranking members of the Jiang Family in surprise.

"We can’t..."

Jiang Nantian didn’t want to, but... he no longer had a choice. Summoning all his strength, he bellowed, "Our Jiang Family... does not dare!"

The Jiang Family does not dare!

Tang Zhong, pointing to the coin Jiang Nantian had thrown on the ground earlier, casually said, "Pick up the money for buying your family’s ancestral land!"

This scene was witnessed by everyone present, who also saw the coin lying on the ground, and then their gaze shifted to Jiang Nantian.

At this moment, Jiang Nantian didn’t even have the courage to clench his fists as he looked at the coin on the ground.

"Don’t do it, Family Head!"

"Absolutely not!"

"Fight him!"

The voices around were all from the high-ranking members of the Jiang Family.

If they picked up the money from the ground, it meant selling their ancestral land.

But as they spoke, the voices of the Jiang Family’s high-ranking members died down...

Challenging such a person...

Was no different from seeking death.

Jiang Nantian understood this better, as he looked at the coin on the ground, slowly bent down, a miserable smile hanging on his face. "It was my oversight, for not recognizing General Tang..."

He squatted down, touched the coin, then picked it up, clenching it tightly in his hand. Standing up again, at this moment, Jiang Nantian’s hands tightly held the coin, and then looked at Tang Zhong, his heart unwilling. The Jiang Family’s three hundred years of foundation, the ancestral land was chosen by the first generation of their family as a blessed land, but now, it had been sold for a mere coin, an unforgettable humiliation for the Jiang Family!

"Are you feeling wronged?" Tang Zhong asked with a smile.

"I dare not!" Jiang Nantian replied, clenching his fists.

"Do you think I’m inhuman?" Tang Zhong continued to ask.

"No!" Jiang Nantian replied.

"You want revenge?" Tang Zhong continued to ask with a smile.

"No!" Jiang Nantian replied.

He swore that one day, if he could rise again, he would make sure Tang Zhong died without a burial place!

"The ancestral land being forcibly sold, you’re really hurting, aren’t you? The ancestral land being sold for one coin, it really bothers you, doesn’t it? The Jiang Family’s ancestral land is priceless to you, isn’t it? But have you ever thought, my Tang Family’s ancestral land is also priceless to me, but you dared sell it for a mere fifty million — who gave you the courage? Tell me... who did!" But at this moment, the previously smiling Tang Zhong, as if transformed into another person, roared furiously. His bloodshot eyes terrifying, his entire demeanor like a fearsome demon.

His name was Tang, the Tang Family could not be humiliated. Tang Zhong, always suppressing his emotions, finally burst forth entirely, fifty million for such ancestral land, what a joke!

"Ah!" The sudden change in Tang Zhong frightened Jiang Nantian, causing him to scream and collapse backwards, his forehead covered in cold sweat as he looked at Tang Zhong ahead, fear filling his pupils.

Not just him, even others who saw Tang Zhong in this state trembled.
