Chapter 183
Seeing Jiang Che arrive, Lin Canghai was stunned and hurriedly got up from the sofa to greet Jiang Che. The last time he saw Jiang Che was at his own birthday banquet.
Although Jiang Che was very polite to him, he knew that this was all due to Jiang Che’s relationship with his granddaughter, so he didn’t take it for granted.
“It’s been a few days, and Mr. Lin still looks spirited…”
“Young Master Jiang as well, it’s been a while, and your aura has improved…” After some pleasantries, Lin Canghai welcomed Jiang Che into the living room, asked the servant to brew a pot of tea for Jiang Che, and then directly asked.
“I wonder what brings Young Master Jiang to see this old man today?” He knew that Jiang Che was not someone who would come without a reason.
“Indeed, there is something I want to discuss with Mr. Lin…” Jiang Che took a sip of hot tea and said unhurriedly.
“Young Master Jiang, please speak directly. As long as it’s something this old man can help with, I will definitely not refuse.” Lin Canghai guaranteed with a strong and sincere tone.
“You can call me Xiao Che.” Jiang Che said with a smile, giving Lin Canghai this bit of face since he was Lin Xiyan’s grandfather.
“Then I’ll call you Xiao Che…” Lin Canghai said with a hearty laugh, feeling even better about Jiang Che.
“I came today because there’s something I want Mr. Lin to help me with.”
“Oh? What do you want me to help you with?” Lin Canghai asked with some confusion.
What could an old man like him do for Jiang Che? Moreover, the Jiang family was much stronger than his Lin family.
“Has Chen Feng, Throne of the Northern Territory, come to see you already?”
“How do you know?” Lin Canghai was taken aback and asked suspiciously. He had never mentioned this to anyone else, could it be that Lin Xiyan told Jiang Che?
Jiang Che smiled mysteriously without answering Lin Canghai’s question, “Chen Feng asked you to help investigate the massacre of the Chen family, right? You can forge some evidence to point the finger at the Zhao family in Modu.”
“As far as I know, the Zhao family has a branch in Linjiang City. You can say that the Chen family was exterminated because they were competing with the Zhao family for that piece of land…”
“This… might be inappropriate…” After hesitating for a long time, Lin Canghai sighed.
It’s not that he didn’t want to help Jiang Che, but Chen Feng was his son’s comrade. If Chen Feng found out afterwards and the news spread back to the Northern Territory, it would greatly affect his son.
“Mr. Lin, don’t worry. After this is done, I will get rid of Chen Feng and help Lin Tianlong take his place as the Throne of the Northern Territory.” Seeing Lin Canghai’s concern, Jiang Che said with a smile.
“Are you serious?” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Lin Canghai was shocked.
He didn’t expect Jiang Che to dare to assassinate the Throne of the Northern Territory.
“Of course it’s true. Chen Feng and I have some old grudges. I plan to get rid of him, but I don’t want to make it easy for him. I’ll give him some trouble before he dies.” Jiang Che said coldly.
After getting rid of Chen Feng and supporting Lin Tianlong to take his place, it would not be difficult for the Jiang family. All he had to do was tell his grandfather. By then, the Lin family would be completely tied to his own family.
“I agree with your plan.” Lin Canghai took a deep breath and agreed directly.
He also believed that Jiang Che had the ability to do what he said, considering the terrifying background of the Jiang family.
Jiang Che’s grandfather, Jiang Jingshan, had disciples all over the Jiuzhou Country. And with his help and support, they were all doing very well now.
“But how do we forge this evidence?” Lin Canghai asked with a frown.
It wasn’t easy to smear the Zhao family in Modu. Without solid evidence, Chen Feng wouldn’t believe it.
“It’s simple. I’ll find someone to forge a document showing that the land in Linjiang City once belonged to the Chen family and send it to you. You can then pass it on to Chen Feng.” Jiang Che said.
As long as it was proven that the land of the Zhao family’s branch in Linjiang City once belonged to the Chen family, it would be obvious. Chen Feng wasn’t stupid and wouldn’t miss it.
After saying this, Jiang Che turned and left, planning to arrange for the forgery of the document.
…
Watching Jiang Che’s departing figure, Lin Canghai remained silent. He realized he had misjudged Jiang Che. This young man was not as kind as he appeared on the surface.
Someone who could talk about killing so casually and without changing his expression was definitely not a simple character.
“Xiyan, what do you think of Jiang Che?” Lin Canghai turned to look at Lin Xiyan and asked.
He knew his granddaughter had an unusual relationship with Jiang Che.
“He… is quite domineering.” Lin Xiyan wrinkled her nose and thought for a while before speaking.
Jiang Che was a strange person. Sometimes he was domineering and unreasonable, sometimes he was affectionate and gentle, but he was undoubtedly a scumbag!
“Don’t you think there’s something wrong with him killing people?” Lin Canghai looked at Lin Xiyan with some surprise.
He remembered his granddaughter being very kind-hearted. In the past, if she heard such remarks, she would definitely criticize them harshly.
“There’s nothing wrong with it. Jiang Che said that Chen Feng is his enemy, didn’t he? Isn’t it natural to kill an enemy? Why keep them alive for the New Year?” Lin Xiyan shrugged and said.
She was no longer the naive girl who had just come down from the mountain and knew nothing. After experiencing society’s harshness, she no longer had that saintly attitude.
If someone is your enemy, why not kill them? Especially if you have the ability. Moreover, Jiang Che was a martial artist. In the world of martial arts, such things were commonplace, though ordinary people wouldn’t know.
But most martial artists weren’t as arrogant as Jiang Che.
Hearing Lin Xiyan’s words, Lin Canghai fell into silent contemplation. He noticed that his granddaughter had changed a lot recently, but it was ultimately a good thing.
…
Using his status as the young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Che quickly arranged the forgery of the document.
Then, he had someone send it to Lin Canghai and returned to Crouching Dragon Villa himself.
…
Crouching Dragon Villa, in the pavilion of the garden.
“System, open the attribute panel.”

Looking at the remaining 57000 villain points, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction. Without much hesitation, he began to improve his cultivation.
“Ding, 50000 villain points deducted, upgrading ‘Mysterious Heavenly Scripture’…”
…
The cultivation improvement lasted a long time. When Jiang Che opened his eyes again, the moon was already high in the sky.
Feeling the abundant and surging internal energy in his body, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction. He stood up from the stone bench in the pavilion and stretched.
Suddenly! His whole body emitted a series of cracking sounds.
“Martial Dao advances step by step, and this is undeniably true.” Jiang Che sighed inwardly, reflecting that his current cultivation and use of internal strength had advanced significantly beyond his previous level.
It’s no surprise he had never encountered a protagonist capable of surpassing their level in battles. Only with the aid of something like Limitless Pure Yang, which continuously supplies internal strength, combined with powerful cultivation methods and martial skills, could one achieve such feats.
However, the protagonists he had encountered so far were typically impoverished and lacked advanced techniques. When he first met them, their stories were just beginning, and they had not yet seized those crucial opportunities.
