Chapter 37: Deja Vu, Frost River

n in the state of Qi and its vassal states was primarily made up of knife-shaped coins, with gold and silver serving as secondary currencies.The use of knife-shaped coins in the state of Zhuang was hi...Almost at the same time as Zhong Xuansheng's victory was announced, Jiang Wang had already rushed out of the door.

The right hand forms a sword with the fingers, stirring purple qi.

The person outside the door seemed caught off guard, subconsciously forming a heavy water shield to block their front.

However, sword energy surged, and the heavy water beads flew out like pebbles.

Jiang Wang reached out with his left hand, a flame blossom opening at his fingertips, and also blossoming on this person's acupoint.

It all happened so fast, it was just a matter of one move.

S Fourteen and Chong Xuan Sheng only stepped out a moment later, Jiang Wang had already subdued their opponent.

“Zhong Xuanxin” Zhong Xuansheng frowned.

It was Chong Xuan who was pinned to the face with a burst of flames by Jiang Wang, not daring to move.

He had a striking hawk-like nose, but there was no trace of arrogance to be seen now.

Seeing Chongxuan, he suddenly knelt down with a thud: "Brother Chongxuan, I'm here to apologize to you!"

Seeing him like this, Jiang Wangcai flipped his hand and extinguished the Flame Flower, standing silently.

No matter how Chong Xuan Sheng acted, at least on the surface, he was now Chong Xuan Sheng's disciple. Some things should only be decided by Chong Xuan Sheng.

Feeling the searing breath dissipate, Chong Xuan's forehead finally had beads of cold sweat trickle down.

Only then did he realize the vast gulf between him and Jiang Wang. Only then did he understand why Chongxuan insisted on choosing Jiang Wang to accompany him into the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm.

“What crime have I committed” Chong Xuan narrowed his eyes.

Zhong Xuan knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face: “It’s all my fault for being such a coward. I couldn't stand being threatened and ended up going against Sheng Ge. Brother, I know I was wrong. If you want to hit me or punish me, I’ll take it!”

"This is quite the statement. Who has such audacity to threaten people from my Chongxuan family" Chongxuan Sheng's voice dropped, instantly emanating an air of authority.

"Yes...yes..."

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

Zhong Xuan was startled, but he still dared not speak that name.

If you don't want to say, just go back.

"Chong Xuan Zun! It's Chong Xuan Zun!" Chong Xuanxin gritted his teeth and said viciously, "This man has a narrow mind and a vicious disposition. He disregards family ties and harbors resentment towards Brother Sheng. He wants to do everything he can to target you!"

“Nonsense! How could Zun Ge possibly be that kind of person” Chong Xuan Sheng said with a stern face, “You mustn’t slander him!”

Chong Xuan was stunned for a moment, not knowing whether to continue scolding.

"Alright." Chongxuan finally softened his expression. "Get up. We're brothers of the same sect, surely we can resolve any misunderstanding Have I ever held a grudge against you"

"Thank you, Lord Sheng for your magnanimity." Zhong Xuan stood up and couldn't help but wipe his sweat. He secretly regretted that he had foolishly meddled in the competition between these two scoundrels.

Now that he hadn't accomplished anything, Chongxuan was looked down upon by the other talented individuals at that side. He wasn't even given a second glance.

He offended Chong Xuan Sheng badly this time. Now Chong Xuan Sheng is planning to take over the Shen Tong Inner Palace, turning himself from a nobody into someone powerful. His influence has risen suddenly.

He weighed his options carefully and decided to come forward and apologize proactively. That way, he could avoid having to settle the score later when things got really intense.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I was restrained by Jiang Wang.

Zhong Xuan, with just a few words, managed to subdue Zhong Xuan and make him completely obedient. He wasn't interested in wasting too much time on him, so he simply said: "Just go back for now. I'll have someone inform you if there's anything else. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to come find me."

"Brother Sheng, I will always obey your orders!"

Zhong Xuan hastily declared his determination and fled the place like a refugee.

A mere pledge of loyalty from Chong Xuanxin was merely a microcosm of the competition between Chong Xuansheng and Chong Xuanzun in all aspects, not enough to move him.

He smiled and said to Jiang Wang, “I just took over yesterday. I dismissed a lot of servants, which made the defenses lax, allowing this boy to barge in recklessly. It was just a scare.”

Jiang Wang doesn't understand political strategies and governing, nor has he ever had the opportunity to be educated in such matters.

Therefore, he asked, “Is this person reliable”

He is certainly not reliable.

> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Then why do you still use him

“Brother Jiang, the gap between me and Chongxuan is vast in every aspect. This disparity will likely persist for a considerable time to come, and I am unable to bridge it. He has the right to be selective, but I do not.”

"Moreover, in this world, no matter who a person is, or what thing it may be, even a piece of charcoal or a scrap of paper, everything has its use. What's reliable has its reliable uses, and what's unreliable has its unreliable uses."

Jiang Wang nodded thoughtfully.

He had never had his own faction and had never been taught about it before. Chong Xuan's words undoubtedly opened a new world for him.

"Brother Jiang," Chong Xuan smiled again, "Your swordsmanship as you left just now reminded me of someone."

Ginger Wang's heart skipped a beat: "Who is it"

“The same white hair as frost, the same sharp sword qi.” Chongxuan Sheng said: “One of the masters of Nandou Palace, Lu Shuanghe, the real person of Qisha.”

Zhong Xuan Sheng shook his head and said, "We are still far from those great figures."

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

"Yes," Jiang Wang said.

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

Zhong Xuan didn't notice the bitterness in his tone, because it was after all too faint, too distant.

"From now on, focus your cultivation and hasten the opening of the Heavenly Gates, exploring the Sea of Flesh. The sooner you realize your potential, the greater the benefit to me."

He encouraged, "Lu Shuanghe also rose from our realm!"

"Good." Jiang Wang smiled.

After Chongxuan and Shi Fourteen left the courtyard, Jiang Wang only then looked at the already bright sky, letting out a sigh of wistfulness.

Only the profound mystic known as Wei Dong Xuan can be called a true person of our time, the formidable Qisha Zhenren Lu Shuanghe.

If... back then, I hadn't been pushed into the river. Wouldn't I already have the power to take revenge

Walking out of Jiang Wang's courtyard, Shi Fourteen remained silent and followed behind.

Zhong Xuan Sheng suddenly asked, "Don't you wonder why I value Jiang Wang so much"

Fourteen remained silent.

But Zhong Xuanyan had already understood, so he turned and asked: “Am I a genius”

He nodded. There was no doubt about it.

If Chong Xuan Sheng was an ordinary person, no one would be able to help him stand opposite Chong Xuan Zun.

"He is more talented than me." Chongxuan said, "When I first met him in the Illusory Realm of Tai Xu, even with my strength restricted, defeating him was effortless. But soon after, I had to use all my power. Later on, even at full strength, I only had a slight advantage."

“I don't actually remember what happened in the Heavenly Treasure Secret Realm. But judging by how he just dealt with Chongxuan's attacks, he might be on par with me now.”

"I have access to the resources of the Chongxuan family, and I've been exposed to top-tier cultivation knowledge. What does he have If he had resources and the means, he wouldn't travel thousands of miles to accompany me on this adventure. Although we had a great time communicating in the Illusory Realm of Taixu, it's not enough for him to come to Qi Country."

His progress speed makes me very confident in his future.

The way Chong Xuan Sheng and Fourteen interacted seemed to always be Chong Xuan Sheng talking to himself while Fourteen listened silently, occasionally nodding or shaking his head.

Of course, that's not the most important thing.

Chong Xuan Sheng said: "The most important thing is that this person is very reliable. Take the incident with Lian Que for example, his choice seemed very foolish. I didn't hesitate to offend Lian Que and told him the value of his natal card. But he simply chose to return Lian Que's natal card because of a reason that sounded absurd."

"You wouldn't see this kind of person at the Chong Xuan residence."

“If I say that I invested heavily in his talent to secure him longevity, then my desperate plea for him to stay and help me is precisely because of this ‘absurdity’.”

This text is empty!

“This person's promise is far more reliable than a Heart Demon Curse.”

"The only person in this world I can trust completely is you. But if there was a second person, I think Jiang Wang is worth trusting."

"Fourteen, just wait and see, I will win step by step."is of Bo Wang to his fullest. He could only strive to showcase his abilities as much as possible. Wealth was one such way.When Jiang Wang arrived at this mansion, Chong Xuan hadn't returned yet. But t...
