Chapter 70: Changsheng Palace

rriages. Therefore, Old Master Yan found another suitable family for his grandson. This is why before the heavy Xuan Sheng met Jiang Wang in the Tai Xu illusionary realm, he mentioned that Yan Fu woul...In the Longevity Palace.

Flowers outside are in full bloom, but spring still carries a chill.

Prince Jiu of the Qi Dynasty, clad in a fox fur robe, was drinking medicine from a jade bowl the color of turquoise. The medicine was black and brown in color. A strange, foul smell churned in the air, making one nauseous.

He, however, remained composed, slowly swallowing each bite.

A book lay open on the table before him. He held a jade bowl, sipping medicine, his gaze falling upon the book.

Books are as good as medicine.

Lei Zhanyan, sitting not far away, furrowed his brows so tightly they were almost touching. He couldn't understand how his nephew could drink such a bitter concoction with such nonchalance. He even savored it sip by sip… Just the smell of it made him gag!

"This medicine..." Lei Zhanyan covered his nose and asked, "Could it be hiding a secret Does it taste different from what it smells like"

Jiang Wuqi finished reading the passage before him, then chuckled softly: "If Brother is so curious, I'll have someone make another bowl for you. What do you think"

“I don't want to!”

Le Zhàn Qian quickly refused.

Even if this medicine were priceless, he wouldn't want to compromise his own palate. For a cultivator aspiring to the peak, almost nothing is unbearable, but there is no need to deliberately seek out suffering.

After Jiang Wuqì had slowly finished the medicine in the jade bowl, he spoke again: "There's something rather intriguing. I sent three groups of people to investigate Zhang Línchuān, and none of them returned."

Leizhanqian, who was usually arrogant and overbearing, seemed to have lost his edge in front of Jiang Wuqidi. He acted just like an ordinary cousin, chatting casually about this and that.

Jiang Wuqi used a handkerchief to slowly wipe his mouth, and casually asked: "Zhang Linchuan"

Lei Zhanqian smiled: "That's just Jiang Wang's alias used in the Floating Land world."

Jiang Wuqi gently folded Xue Pa and put it aside, her eyes still fixed on his book: "What are you looking this up for"

“Don’t you think this is a problem” Lei Zhanyan said: “Jiang Wang is a person from the rootless and bottomless Xi Jing Zhuangguo, and it's unknown how he knew Chong Xuan Sheng. He followed him into the Tianfu Secret Realm, and later was brought to participate in the Qi Yang battlefield. This is how he took root in our Great Qi. The problem is, since he is rootless and bottomless, why have I sent three waves of people to bury themselves in his roots”

"Then what did you find out" Jiang Wuqi remained unflinching.

Seeing that Jiang Wukui wasn't very interested, Lei Zhanqian also lost his enthusiasm. "I only know there's someone named Zhang Linchuan in Zhuang State. He's said to be a white bone messenger from the White Bone Dao. It's just a nameless cult."

Jiang Wuqidi's heart skipped a beat.

Unlike Lei Zhanyan, he had the authority to access detailed intelligence on the Battle of Qiyang. Naturally, he carefully reviewed it for the only time Qi had been defeated in recent years. He remembered very clearly that during the Battle of Qiyang, a white bone demon god appeared and was chopped into pieces by Chong Xuan Chu Liang before escaping.

The Bone Demon and Jiang Wang both appear in Zhuang Guo and Yang Di. There seems to be some kind of relationship between the two.

But he didn't intend to tell Lei Zhanyan about this, lest his cousin take the opportunity to run wild and cause trouble.

Lei Zhanyan suddenly said, "Do you think Jiang Wang might come from a cult Is he plotting something in our Qi state"

The more he spoke, the more excited he became: "Perhaps he used some kind of sorcery to overdraw his potential, that's how he could progress so quickly!"

Jiang Wuxi sighed softly in his heart. What kind of person was Lei Zhanqian before! He was highly anticipated from a young age, regarded as the hope for the rise of the Lei family, a once-in-a-millennium genius of the Lei clan. On the day when Lei Xi's divine power descended, the entire Lei family was ecstatic.

“One seal imprints the heavens and earth, I am the Lord of Thunder and Lightning.” What kind of terrifying potential is this To act on behalf of Heaven, wielding the thunderclap and lightning.

The Qixing Building secret realm had some setbacks, but he already got what he was supposed to get. Ahead is a clear path to the heavens, just take big strides forward.

But after his battle with Jiang Wangyi, his aura of dominating everything was broken and has yet to recover...

...He's still looking for excuses, which shows how much he can't accept that failure.

He watched in disbelief as a rising star, one he had always thought he could control, soared past him in the blink of an eye. In front of thousands of spectators, he was easily defeated.

This was a heavy blow for him, who was extremely conceited.

But this matter cannot be divulged. We can only wait for Lei Zhanyan to figure it out himself. Rashly uncovering his wounds could very well lead to him falling into despair.

“How could someone from the Chongxuan family possibly be involved with a cult And where is Chongxuan Sheng an idiot” Jiang Wuqidi shook his head and said, “If Jiang Wang truly came from some sort of cult, there would be no need to wait for you to investigate. Is it that Dingyuan Hou is soft-hearted, or Bo望 Hou is weak”

This is simple logic, and Lei Zhanyan naturally would have understood it.

"Well," he sighed.

Jiang Wuqi thought for a moment, shifted his gaze from the book, and said in a serious tone: "Cultivation is a process that has a beginning and an end, a fast and a slow pace. One's progress at a given time doesn't tell us everything, ultimately it comes down to who stands taller in the end. Your 《Nine Heavens Thunder Derivation Art》, cousin, is profound and unfathomable. Cultivating it to its fullest extent, 'using thunder as a substitute for celestial patterns, using thunder techniques to evolve all methods.' What an ambition! A high-flyer residing in the ninth heaven, occasionally glances at the mortal world and then moves on, why bother with short-term gains and losses"

Lei Zhanqian remained silent for a while, ultimately unwilling to continue the topic. He changed the subject and said: "Regarding Elder Dihai Tower, you didn't suppress him when it was an opportunity, why did you protect him He had bad intentions and used me for his own fame. My Lei Seal almost melted because of him."

There were actually different voices within the Qi State regarding Jiang Wang's counterattack against Hai Zongming.

Some believe it's unnecessary to make things too hostile between Jiang Wang and Diao Hai Lou, though this view is very weak. A great power like Da Qi shouldn't have to lower itself to Diao Hai Lou, nor should it be unable to protect its own talent.

But Ginger Muqi at that time was a staunch supporter of Ginger Wang, believing that Ginger Wang killing Hai Zongming was entirely justified. There was no such thing as disrupting Qi's layout in the coastal area.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Jiang Wugui knew his support hadn't played a crucial role. The entire Qi court generally didn't consider this an issue. Lei Zhanyan himself was aware of this. But he still brought it up, nothing more than a knot in his heart that he casually found an excuse to vent.

Despite understanding all of this, Jiang Wuqi still responded earnestly: "He is the pride of Da Qi. Of course, I must protect him."

Lei Zhanyan curled his lips: "He's not from Qi."

Let me know if you have anything else I can help with!

Jiang Wuxi closed the book and his expression became very serious: "You must not speak of this again. He lives in Qi's houses, receives Qi's salary, performs Qi's duties, serves Qi faithfully, and fights for Qi. How is he not a citizen of Qi"

He was clearly angry now: “It’s not about where you are born that makes you a citizen of Qi. The world is vast, the six realms boundless, stretching from sunrise to sunset. If your heart belongs to Qi, then you are a citizen of Qi. If our ancestors of great Qi were as shortsighted as your cousin, Qi would still be nothing but a fishing village by the sea!”

Lei Zhanyan was filled with resentment and discontent, grumbling about and judging others. None of this mattered. Jiang Wuqi could simply listen to him without taking it seriously. This is the natural closeness between relatives.

But if he were to say something too outrageous, do something that would shake the foundations of the Qi nation, then Jiang Wuqi would absolutely not tolerate it. This is the dignity that a member of the Qi royal family must uphold.

Even though Lei Zhanyan was arrogant, he still knew his place. He was both his cousin and a subordinate.

Seeing Jiang Wukui truly angry, he immediately conceded: “From now on, I won’t say it.”

But then he quickly said, "During the time that Jiang Wang returned to Linzi, he visited both Jiang Wu Xie and Jiang Wu Yu, but never met with you. How could you treat them fairly, and they would not stand by your side Even in the future... it is very likely to become a stumbling block for you!"

Jiang Wuqi lightly coughed a few times, pressed her hand against the book, and stood up: "He doesn't need to look at me."

He was bundled in his fox fur, looking a little uncomfortable in the spring chill.

Slowly walking toward the warmer place outside the hall, he softly said: "Towards Qi State, is towards me."

Le Zhanqian remained seated, gazing at Jiang Wuqi's slender figure even the fox fur coat couldn't hide. He only felt an overwhelming sense of confidence and determination.

That step was slow, but every step felt like treading upon one's own empire.

He thought. The future Qi state, must surely belong to this man; there was no other option.

>he wants to try out the feeling of being an immortal who can fly and disappear at will! He has accumulated merit through military exercises during peaceful times. But how long can he continue thisWors...
