The abrupt voice drew everyone's attention, and Jiang Ce's gaze shifted to the speaker.
In an instant, their eyes met. It was like the clash of a needle against a razor's edge, creating invisible currents in the air that sparked with fire at the briefest touch.
The person who had so suddenly spoken was none other than Jiang Jianming, the current head of the Jiang Family!
Although Jiang Ce was still unclear about the reasons his parents had left the Jiang Family, he believed that Jiang Jianming must have played a part in it. For Jiang Jianming, Jiang Ce's very existence was the greatest threat to his position as the head of the Jiang Family.
As long as Jiang Ce was in this world, his position as family head would never be secure.
Thus, when the two met, it was with the animosity of archenemies. The mere clash of their auras was so intense it seemed to suffocate the entire hall.
Immediately following Jiang Jianming's lead, one person after another began to stand up.
