Chapter 482 Leaks
After the banquet dispersed, everyone went into the cave to cultivate themselves in the illusion.
Jiang Wen walked outside the Shennong Hall and blew in the night breeze, enjoying the rare tranquility.
But outside the Shennong Hall, he still saw a familiar figure. Sitting alone on the steps, looking at the night sky alone.
Walking over and sitting down, Jiang Wen smiled and said, "What's wrong? Are you still worried about the martial arts thing?"
"Brother Taixu..." The other party raised his head, his long hair floating in the wind. She looked at Jiang Wen, with a bit of frustration on her delicate face. "I didn't expect that I was so useless. I didn't even get into the top three of the martial arts competition."
"You are no worse than others." Jiang Wen said.
"But, brother Taixu, you are already the leader. And what about me? I can't do anything. My mother gave me a magical weapon, but I was defeated by an inner disciple. I am really useless. What? No way." Jiang Rong said sadly, she was still worried about her failure in the mountain and river world. She thought she could still challenge the top three, but who knew she was defeated when there were more than twenty people.
She felt very lost and even a little frustrated.
Maybe like my mother said, she is of no use at all. No matter what you do, it won't work, you are in vain to be the direct relative of the King of Heaven.
"It's not that you can't do it." Jiang Wen comforted. "It's just that you have less time to accumulate than them. Think about how many years they have practiced, and how many years you have practiced. You have surpassed many people by being able to enter the mountain and river realm. You can be among the top thirty with the help of magical weapons, and you are even more He is one of the most talented people in Tai Cang. Think about how great Tai Cang is and how many people he has. You can compete with the most powerful heroes in Tai Cang, and you should be proud of it. You see, even the young patriarch of the Tuoba clan is not as good as you, and he was the first to leave the Mountain and River Realm."
"By the way, brother Taixu, I also want to give you a gift. But please close your eyes first."
Jiang Rong held the Questioning Heart Sword tightly, her bright eyes slightly moist. Biting his lower lip, he looked at Jiang Wen and said seriously: "I will never let down Brother Taixu's kindness."
Jiang Rong said with a smile, her big eyes blinking.
The Questioning Heart Sword was handed to Jiang Rong. She first looked at the blade, and then at Jiang Wen. Pointing at his face, he asked: "Brother Taixu really wants to give this magic weapon to me? Isn't it your reward? And this is the Heart-Questing Sword! It is the personal magic weapon of the Shennong clan."
"Yes!" Jiang Rong nodded vigorously.
"This is my gift to Brother Taixu. It's my first time too." After she finished speaking, she ran away holding the sword. Jiang Wen was left sitting there, staring blankly at the moon.
But without any precaution, the gentle touch came. He opened his eyes and looked. Jiang Rong's eyes were shy and evasive.
"It's good if you can figure it out. Don't be afraid of being late in your cultivation, but be afraid of not being firm." Jiang Wen looked at Jiang Rong's happy look and was also infected without realizing it. He smiled, as if he had remembered something.
She stood up and wiped her lips with her hands. Against the moonlight, crystal clear.
"The road to Taoism is long, and you need to keep your original intention in mind." Jiang Wen warned.
"It's of no use to me anymore." Jiang Wenxiao said, putting the Questioning Sword in Jiang Rong's hand. Give the other person an encouraging look and let her understand your good intentions.
Her fair cheeks were flushed, and her eyes were full of spring water.
She stretched out and let the night breeze blow. He raised his head and looked up at the moonlight, then mustered up his energy and said: "Brother Taixu is right, I am already very powerful. But I want to be even more powerful, just like Brother Taixu. Maybe my mother is right, as the direct relatives of the King of Heaven , Don’t be inferior to others in diligence.”
"You gave me a gift?" Jiang Wen was a little curious when he heard this, then closed his eyes and waited for the little girl's gift.
"So you are more powerful than the one named Tuoba Baxuan."
"By the way, I have something else for you." Jiang Wen said, and then took out the Heart-Questing Sword. This sword has been cultivated by many people, and the sword's intention is channeled. Use it to practice swordsmanship and observe the meaning of the sword, and you will definitely improve in the way of swordsmanship. And Jiang Rong happened to need this sword, so he was going to give it to her.
"Thank you, brother Taixu. I feel much better."
"Tsk, Brother Taixu is talking nonsense again. How can I compare to him? If he hadn't met Brother Taixuan, he would definitely be in the top thirty." Jiang Rong chuckled, and her mood suddenly improved a lot. A smile bloomed on his face, and the dull look just now disappeared.
He didn't expect that he would be taken advantage of or sneak attacked. This was really surprising.
"This...according to my age, I can probably be her grandfather for several generations." Jiang Wen felt a little funny when he thought about the seniority between himself and Jiang Rong.
In the distance, Jiang Rong's voice came. Jiang Wen looked over and saw a bright smile on her face. "Brother Taixu, wait for me! Wait until I grow up! I will definitely be able to catch up with you!"
She waved her hands desperately, and then left with the guards.
When Jiang Wen heard this, he couldn't help but be speechless. He rubbed his forehead, somewhat dumbfounded. This matter was not the result he wanted.
"She likes you." Xue's voice came. Dressed in white, she looks like a fairy from Lingbo.
"She and I are destined to have no fate." Jiang Wen shook his head and said. "It's just the beginning of a girl's love. She will forget it in the future."
"You don't understand." Xue sat down next to him. "Some things, once encountered, will be unforgettable for a lifetime."
"Really? But I think time is the best whetstone. No matter how dull the knife is, the rust will always be worn away."
"Maybe, I don't know." Xue shook her head. Then he handed him another object.
"Use this when you are alone with the King of Heaven, and half of our plan will be completed."
"Aren't you afraid that someone will hear it? Such an aboveboard plan." Jiang Wen took the thing and joked.
"Don't worry, I've set up a soundproof formation." Xue said calmly. "What's more, the Heavenly King is so proud. She never feels that anyone is plotting against her. With her current strength, she is already beyond the hundreds of monks of the Immortal Family. Even the saints are far inferior to her in front of her."
"Why don't you do it yourself? I think the King of Heaven is very attached to you." Jiang Wen pinched the thing and asked the question that had been in his mind for a long time.
When Xue heard this, she lowered her head in silence. She looked at Jiang Wen and said quietly: "I can't do it myself because I can't break the promise I made."
"Promise?" Jiang Wen was confused.
"Well, I promised Master one thing. No matter what happens in the future, I can't personally plot against her." Xue said this, making Jiang Wen's memory emerge. He did remember this incident, but it had long been forgotten by him. After all, it was just his wish before his death, and he didn't think Xue and Xiu Qi would really turn against Jiang Wenji. The promise he wanted in the first place was just the comfort before his death.
"So you came to me?" Jiang Wen was confused. "Aren't you afraid that your plan will be exposed? Besides, you are plotting against the King of Heaven, right?"
"I'm not plotting rebellion, I just want her to let go of her obsession." Xue looked at Jiang Wen and said. "From the first moment I saw you, I felt that this plan would not fail. I have already looked for many people, but you are the most suitable one."
"You... can only do this this time." Jiang Wen and Xue looked at each other and said seriously. "If you really want the King of Heaven to let go of his obsession, you should speak up and remonstrate."
"I know, I won't do it again."
Xue shook her head, feeling a little panicked. She was like a child who was caught doing bad things by an adult. It was the first time in ten thousand years that she felt like this.
The person in front of me really looks so much like Master. Every word and deed has the shadow of Master.
"What do you like to eat?" Xue suddenly asked.
"Hot pot." Jiang Wen said subconsciously, and then when he met Xue's eyes, he realized that he seemed to have let something slip.
He felt a sense of distortion, as if the world was squeezing him away.
Jiang Wen's heart sank and he was about to do something. Then he felt the golden light of the statue flashing in his consciousness, as if he had come to life.
After a while, the world stabilized, and the distorted feeling disappeared. When he came back to his senses, he saw Xue staring closely at him.
"You, eat hot pot?"
