Chapter 62: Eldest Brother

eletons from the hall and the courtyard were gone, leaving only a layer of ash where they had been. Jiang Wang could almost picture the scene: the two skeletons had just been manipulated, hadn't even...The schoolyard is rough and bleak, at a glance it can be seen that it is frequently used, with murderous aura lingering all year round.

On either side of the schoolyard, weapon racks stood filled with blades and spears, swords and halberds—every conceivable weapon imaginable. Each piece shone brilliantly, extraordinary in its craftsmanship.

But anyone who came to this schoolyard for the first time, at first glance would only be attracted by Jiang Wuyou.

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

Amidst the deafening roar, a cold light flickered.

The valiant Jiang Wuyu suddenly dashed to the left, then suddenly to the right.

Fang Tian painted with her halberd, as if it were a brush writing upon the heavens.

She wielded her brush amidst the vast expanse of heaven and earth. The feeling of boundless freedom was a perfect union of power and beauty.

At a certain moment, the roar stopped.

Jiang Wuyou casually flung her hand, then turned and strode out.

That halberd spun in the air several times, whistling through the wind and cracking with thunder, before landing in the hands of an old woman.

All sound ceased.

Yet Jiang Wang was completely unaware of where this old woman came from or how she got there.

Let me know if you'd like to translate more text!

“Jiang Wang!” Jiang Wuyou had already greeted him openly and honestly: “Why are you free to come to my Huaying Palace”

This is a test.

She simply tied her long hair into a ponytail and secured it at the back of her head.

Large beads of sweat rolled down her healthy, wheat-colored skin.

A pair of round and powerful legs, straight as arrows, planted firmly on the ground.

She stood there, naturally radiating an air of elegance and spirit that many men couldn't match.

Jiang Wang bowed respectfully and said earnestly, "One does not visit the Hall of Three Treasures for nothing. Jiang Wang is here today with a request."

A maidservant from the schoolyard presented Jiang Wuyou with a soft cloth. Jiang Wuyou casually took it, wiped her face, and then tossed it back onto the tray in a nonchalant manner.

“Go ahead and speak!”

Compared to their conversation at the tavern, Jiang Wuyou seemed much more relaxed this time. Perhaps it was because she was in her own palace, or maybe it was because she had just finished practicing and felt her mind unwind.

The other party was so straightforward, Jiang Wang also directly stated: “I want to save someone during the Sea Sacrifice at Diao Hai Lou. But I can’t do it alone. So I need your help.”

Jiang Wuyu was not surprised by the name "Fishing Sea Tower".

He just glanced at Jiang Wang twice and suddenly asked, "Since you have already opened up the second mansion, have you managed to obtain another divine ability"

After asking, she smiled again: "This palace merely asked out of curiosity. If you don't wish to say, there's no need to!"

"It's alright." Jiang Wang spoke honestly: "I have opened two palaces and obtained two divine abilities. But I'm sorry, I can't say what the second one is."

Jiang Wuyou nodded and then changed the subject: "Diaohailou is very powerful, and it's difficult to handle because it involves the Sea Festival!"

"I'm well aware of how difficult this is, and there aren't many in Linzi capable of participating." Jiang Wang used the same rhetoric she had employed with Jiang Wu Xie: "Otherwise, I wouldn't have come to..."

"This palace will help you!"

"Huh"

When he was halfway through speaking, Jiang Wang was interrupted and hadn't quite reacted yet.

Jiang Wuyu said again: "I will help you with the matter of Di'Hai Lou!"

"I'm so grateful."

Jiang Wuyou was too straightforward, too decisive. Jiang Wang hesitated instead. He hadn't even stated any conditions yet!

"...I don't know what Your Highness needs..."

Jiang Wuyou shook her head and said directly, "I have to tell you beforehand that I don't have absolute certainty that this matter can be accomplished, so there is no need for your loyalty. I can only guarantee that in this matter, I will do my best to help you. My best effort means mobilizing all the resources and connections of Huaying Palace to help you achieve your goal, regardless of who you want to save or how difficult the matter is. So, similarly, you will also have to do everything you can for one thing in the future. It's not necessarily about success, but it requires you to use all your strength to complete everything you can. Deal"

The decisive and forthright nature of this Great Qi princess far exceeded Jiang Wang's expectations.

...in the face of confrontation with the Diaoyu Islands and the attempt to influence the nearby islands' sea festivals, this is a major matter. Yet she made her decision in just a few words...

He greeted them only briefly, glanced at Jiang Wang twice, and asked a question before placing his bet directly!

There wasn't even a bit of discussion.

It felt like I randomly stumbled upon a gambling den and casually placed a bet with a single knife.

Moreover, her terms were so lenient, merely a trade for a trade, far more generous than she was to Jiang Wang who was considered much more favorably than Jiang Wu Xie.

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

Anyone who has seen Jiang Wuyou with their own eyes can understand why she is qualified to compete for the position of crown prince of Daqi.

Her mind and spirit are as broad as any man's.

It's not proper to refuse a bowl of noodles someone has offered.

>

But he still added in a most unpleasant way, "If this were within the borders of Qi, this matter could not be done against Chongxuan Sheng."

Jiang Wuyou glanced at him one last time and smiled: "That little fatso, shouldn't have the chance to become this palace's enemy."

It's also unclear whether this statement is a compliment or an insult to Chong Xuan Sheng...

Jiang Wang bowed respectfully, deeply: "In that case, Jiang Wang accepts."

Jiang Wuyou laughed and said, "Splendid! A man from the State of Qi should be like this."

Jiang Wang proactively asked, "Your Highness, what do you need to borrow"

“No need for blood oaths, nor vows. The promise of a man from Qingyang Town is something this palace trusts.” Jiang Wuyu shook her head, her ponytail cutting through the air with a sharp arc as she turned back towards the schoolyard. “Go back now, cultivate your spirit, and prepare well. Notify me before you set sail.”

She was too decisive, too straightforward!

As if it wasn't a big deal at all... but it really is such a huge thing!

Jiang Wang once again bowed and, with sword in hand, departed.

His steps, much lighter now. If rescuing Zhu Biqiong had been completely impossible before, then after receiving Jiang Wuyu's promise and support, there was already a 30% chance of success.

Great Qi's influence in the eastern domain was unshakeable. Even though the offshore islands were the stronghold of the Diao Hai Lou, it was impossible to completely disregard Great Qi's voice.

Why did the leader of the bandits only take a step out to sea before the Diaohai Building reacted so fiercely This precisely shows the Diaohai Building's vigilance and apprehension towards Qi Nation.

And Jiang Wuyou was precisely someone who could leverage a portion of the influence of the State of Qi. Her support was crucial to the success or failure of Jiang Wang's mission!

After Jiang Wang left, Jiang Wuyou practiced another round of swordsmanship.

Her swordsmanship was also breathtakingly skilled, with a unique vigor and spirit to it.

If Jiang Wang were here, they would cheer loudly too.

This is not a sentence that I can translate because there is no content between the > tags. If you provide me with actual text within those tags, I'd be happy to translate it for you!

After finishing her sword practice, she opened her arms and allowed the maidservant to remove her martial garb and replace it with loose, comfortable clothing.

The old woman who had put away her painting spear appeared silently and soundlessly again.

"I have something unclear."

In casual clothes, Jiang Wuyu strode out: "Related to a man from Qingyang Town"

The old woman didn't seem to make any effort, her steps casual as she followed lightly behind: "This person's natural talent and intelligence are truly extraordinary. However, before he becomes a divine being, his lifespan will ultimately not exceed one hundred and two years. Before that, he still has a long way to go. At this moment, he is not worth the price the palace master just offered."

>

She hesitated for a moment, then emphasized: "Far from it."

"As for someone like Jiang Wang, if you make a deal with him, he won't let you suffer losses. If you befriend him, he'll give his all to protect you from harm. That's the difference."

The old woman still couldn't understand: "With his current strength, even if he had two houses and two divine abilities, even if he fought with all his might, what could he do Huaying Palace is not short of desperate people."

"Grandma, you're always worried that I'll be taken advantage of and make a losing deal," Jiang Wuyou sighed.

>

The old woman said softly, “You've wasted all your resources, just like that willow...”

"Alright, Grandma, I'll tell you the truth!"

Jiang Wuyou interrupted the old woman's rambling and said helplessly, "Actually, a long time ago, my elder brother had already evaluated Jiang Wang. He said that his Dao heart was as one, with an unlimited future. That's why I was so sure of his future."en it must be Su She!""How is that possible" Jiang Wang couldn't agree this time: "I saw Su Xie being killed with my own eyes!"Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!"Based on Yi...
