So I Am A Demon Descendent!

Chapter 166: Chess Pawn, Father, And Daughter (I)

The battle in the fierce battlefield seemed to have suddenly quieted down a little. The Demons Alliance experts stopped to observe, for Wu Sanjin’s abrupt arrival was extremely unexpected.

Everyone was a local demon, and knew the grudges between Wu Sanjin and the Wu family. Although it was always good to have a friendly army, where did he get the confidence to face the elderly family master?

“Why? Are you here for revenge?” The old man said nonchalantly, “If you sit in that ministerial position safely, I don’t care about you, a junior either. Is it your intention to charge here today or is it that kid’s intention?”

“Is there a difference?” Wu Sanjin smiled.

“Indeed, it really doesn’t make any difference. I know why that kid saved you. He came to Northeast five years ago, hoping that the Wu family would participate in his alliance plan. He wanted to use an alliance to weaken another party, slowly consuming the resources of the major families. The sheer ambition he has. The negotiations didn’t go through but I knew he wouldn’t give up. You’re just his pawn.”

Wu Sanjin remained silent. He was not only a pawn, but an abandoned pawn. So what? He needed a chance, and Baoze gave him a chance. This scene today was a tacit understanding between him and the young man.

After the late Qing Dynasty, the demons descendants community was the era of the families. With the collapse of the Qing Dynasty, which had been around for 300 years, warlords scuffled, the War of Resistance against Japan, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party fought for territory... The demons descendants completely broke away from the control of the regime and ushered in a golden age. All kinds of families emerged and rose to power.

After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, even if the Buddhist Society stabilized the overall situation and bound the blood descendants, it could only maintain peace on the surface. The major families were like powerful vassals. On the surface, they obeyed the central regime, but the truth was, they took matters into their own hands.

Until the establishment of Baoze, many people in the demons descendants community in fact knew that the era of cutting vassals had come. Centralization was a must for every dynasty, and if one didn’t want to be the emperor’s concubine, one was not a good choice to be the empress.

Sooner or later, Baoze would have to weaken the power of the major families, and no force would be willing to have a batch of armed forces that were not to be trifled with on their own territory.

But the old man did not expect the beginning of cutting vassals would begin from the Wu family.

“Elderly Family Master, have you ever regretted it all these years?” Wu Sanjin asked softly.

The old man was unabashed and replied nonchalantly, “Winners take the crown and losers become bandits.”

He did not live in seclusion and was uncaring about the affairs of the clan. He knew exactly what the descendants of his bloodline had done and even appreciated it. The demon descendants families were not a feudal dynasty so why would they pay attention to hereditary succession? The position of the owner had always been a competition, and those who were capable would inherit the position. The old man had lived to be a hundred years old. What had he not experienced?

He could see through most things, but could not see through the word “descendants”. The older one got, the more one wanted the family to prosper. This boy was a descendant of his cousin, but he was not as good as his descendants.

His great-grandson Zhe Mu was brilliant enough, but he was crushed by Wu Sanjin, and he could not surpass him in his life. If the child is not ambitious, then it would be alright. However, he desired the position of family master. Since he had ambition, so what if he was a prodigy? They had abandoned him but the Wu family was prosperous. What did they have to lose by losing a prodigy?

“Well said, winners take the crown and losers become bandits. It is all your fault that the Wu family has come this day. If the upper beam is not straight, the lower beam will be crooked,” Wu Sanjin replied.

Regarding the Wu family in Northeast China today, without destruction there can be no construction. In his eyes, the person he hated most was not Wu Zhemu and his son, but the old man who stood idly by and connived their actions.

The old man laughed and ridiculed, “Why, do you want to purge the tradition for the Wu family?”

“I’m not as noble as you say, I’m just an enemy from the beginning to the end.” Wu Sanjin suddenly disappeared, and when he appeared again, he was in front of the old man. He pushed the old ancestor dozens of meters in a breath by holding down his forehead.

Along the way, the people and demons have retreated one after another. Those who could not avoid were crushed into smithereens by their raging qi.

After rushing out tens of meters, Wu Sanjin dealt out blows with his palms, the impact causing the old man to fly backwards.

The old man rotated in the air, easily dissipating the force. He sliced foreign species that wanted to take advantage and touched his bleeding forehead. The old man that had been invincible for decades in the northeast finally showed a solemn look. “I have underestimated you. If I give you another ten years, I will have to abdicate my position as the top in the Northeast.”

He expected that he did not shatter the old man’s head with one palm. Wu Sanjin’s eyes flickered with a red light. “Ten years?” I can’t wait ten years, elderly family master.”

As he finished speaking, the two disappeared at the same time. The weapons clashed with each other in mid-air, as the ripples of qi swept across, and sand and debris flew.

Both had speed superpowers, and they actually seemed comparable to each other?

The Demons Alliance and the Wu family were stunned.

Superpowers were the same as skill. Essentially, the more experienced one was, the more powerful one would be. The longer one lived, the more mature one’s technique would be. Three punches to kill an old master would not happen in the field of superpowers.

Wu Sanjin was only thirty years old, and his superpower unexpectedly rivaled the 100-year-old family owner.

Isn’t that insanity? The rise of the useless minister is not so exaggerated.

Liu Mei quietly backed away from the battle of revenge. She appeared like a specter behind the man with slender eyes, and grabbed the back of his neck, and said in a cold voice, “What’s going on? Why is Wu Sanjin here?”

Just using her snake’s tail to think, she knew that there is something wrong with it. The Demons Alliance and the Wu family clashed head-on but it was a matter of the two families, and the demon descendants community. From Baoze’s position, it should have sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight. After all, it was an organization with the primary purpose of maintaining stability.

“Wu Sanjin abused public power to retaliate against a personal enemy. While the Demons Alliance and the Wu family fight, he can reap the benefits. Otherwise, even if he were to come with all the men of Fengtian Division, he couldn’t destroy the descendants of Wu family’s owner.” The man with slender eyes looked normal, and he even wanted to laugh.

“Do you think I’m a three year old? Did you collude with him? Or do you have a collusion with Baoze?” Liu Mei’s vertical pupils flashed with cold murderous intent.

“It’s confirmed that Wu Sanjin is abusing public power to retaliate against a personal enemy. As for Baoze, their foundation is too shallow, so under the banner of maintaining stability, they said that he would not interfere in disputes in the demon descendants community, but which dynasty would watch the princes stand by and devour the territory? These are just excuses. Of course, this is not the time to burn bridges with the major families, so they pushed Wu Sanjin out to start the first war of cutting vassals. No matter success or defeat, they will push all the responsibility to him.”

“This is the price for Wu Sanjin to be a Minister, and he knows in his own heart that Baoze has provided him with the opportunity to take revenge. Even though he is regarded as a pawn, he has accepted it.”

“Cutting vassals? So our Demons Alliance will prosper in future?”

“So, in order for the Demons Alliance to continue to prosper, you need such a wise leader like me.”

“What is your goal?” Liu Mei roared.

The man with slender eyes turned his head around 180 degrees, and said with a smile, “The meeting to elect the Alliance Leader is in a few days’ time. If you have the strength, preserve it and compete with me at that time.”

His expression became dull, then his body was like a deflating ball, rapidly shrinking, and finally, he was only a paper man in Liu Mei’s palm.

“The Japanese Shikigami is a great technique indeed.” His laughter lingered in the wind.

.....

“Wu Sanjin, this persistent animal, I knew that when I let the tiger return to the mountain, I would suffer from it.”

Wu Yuanping held a large-caliber Desert Eagle pistol in his left hand. The bullets were specially made and can effectively kill demons descendants. He held a clasp-knife in his right hand. The Wu family’s superpowers were good for sneak attacks and assassination, so light and short weapons were their first choice.

As the owner of the family, at this point of life and death, he insisted on clashing with the enemy head-on. It was not because he didn’t value his life, but because if he were to run away, the Wu family’s fighting spirit would be shattered.

“Dad, can Grandpa deal with that little bastard?” Wu Zhemu’s expression was dark. He has passed 30 years old and has an average appearance, but his talent was good. Without Wu Sanjin, he would definitely be the first man of his generation.

Wu Yuanping had such a son at the age of 30. He and his wife were cousins. Their first baby died a few months after being born, the second child was deformed, and they only got such a healthy and talented son at their third try. Thus, they doted on him.

Wu Yuanping slapped his son in the face and he staggered back from the force. “Why didn’t you dispose of the woman’s body? Either store it in the warehouse or destroy it, why did you let it appear outside?”

In order to refine Mother-Child Evil Spirit... Wu Zhemu dared not say this, lowered his head, and did not say a word.

“Stop reprimanding him. Preserve your energy to deal with these disgusting bastard,” a lady who had preserved her charm said. As the wife of the family owner, she was also a good fighter when she was young. Although she faced a decline in her skills over the years due to living in luxury, she was better than those clan members who were not good at fighting and only knew how to cry and run away.

Spurt!

As soon as she had finished speaking, she was shot through the chest with steel beads and bowed her head unbelievably.

“Mom!”

“Watch out!”

After a brief panic, the family members who were supposed to protect the family master immediately reacted and formed a wall to protect him.

Whoosh whoosh...

A few more steel beads were shot, taking away two lives.

“Don’t surround me! Spread out! Don’t be a live target!” Wu Yuanping roared.

“Don’t go!” A low roar rang, and deafening rumbles roared. A muscular man crashed into the Wu family camp like a cannonball.

A group of Wu family members immediately dispersed, King Kong did not strike any targets, and his landing blew up two deep holes in the ground. In front of the Wu family who had super speed, any sneak attack was clumsy and ridiculous.

Wu Yuanping just appeared more than ten meters away when suddenly a long square metal bar was thrown from the distance. Bang bang bang! A few more pieces of metal bars were thrown, and he was shocked. He knew this did not bode well, as he saw the metal bars click and popped up multiple layers of mortise and tenons inside.

Whoosh!

The hemispherical energy barrier formed and shrouded him in it.

Wu Yuanping chopped down with one knife but failed to break the barrier. Instead, he was shocked by the huge rebound force.

“You won’t be able to escape.” Thunderbolt Battle Lady appeared outside the hemispherical barrier.

This was the spiritual device that Wu Sanjin gave her before he left. It was a combination of Taoist seals and advanced technology. Baoze’s Equipment Department liked to tamper with strange things all day, and this contraption was also their handiwork. It was specially designed to restrain the Wu family’s fancy abilities.

“You...” Wu Yuanping looked at Thunderbolt Battle Lady, only to find that her features were very familiar. The next second, his pupils shrank as he exclaimed, “It’s you!”
