Class A Institute.
At this time, Tantai Ming was standing at the entrance of Class 23 in her white clothes.
In other words, she stood at the entrance of the courtyard where Jiang Yuan lived.
Looking at the whispering outer sect disciples passing by, her expression was indifferent, untouched, like a lone orchid in a deep valley.
After a long while.
She slightly raised her eyes, looking at Jiang Yuan who was slowly approaching, with a faint trace of anticipation in her eyes.
Her heart stirred slightly. Every time she saw Jiang Yuan’s face, her heart couldn’t remain calm.
She often recalled the events that transpired between her and Jiang Zhenyuan.
These emotions, she thought, had completely faded away. Her heart was completely focused on the Great Dao and cultivation.
But now, she knew she couldn’t fall deeper into that quagmire, so she must erase these lingering thoughts in her heart.
Otherwise, when the time comes, this figure would inevitably become a heart demon obstructing her path of cultivation.
She was not afraid of external obstacles, but her inner struggles…
A moment later.
Jiang Yuan stood before her: “May I know why Senior Sister Tantai is here?”
“Won’t you invite me in?” Her tone was slow, her voice ethereal and pleasant. She stepped lightly, standing only a dozen feet away from Jiang Yuan.
A faint fragrance of orchid musk reached Jiang Yuan’s nostrils.
Seeing her acting this way, Jiang Yuan somewhat understood why people referred to her as Fairy Tantai.
She indeed had a distinguished temperament, ethereal and transcending mortal bounds. With her beauty, she truly embodied the sense of a celestial being descended to earth.
But since the last incident, Jiang Yuan had somewhat understood. He had been too naive before.
Back then, she may have truly loved Jiang Zhenyuan, but time passes and people change.
Back then, she was only a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, naive and inexperienced.
Now, while she might only appear to be twenty, her real age was old enough to be a mother.
More than two decades have passed, and people’s hearts have long since changed.
The story of a rich young lady falling in love with a poor boy could only happen in tales. Not to mention, their statuses were akin to the difference between mortals and immortals.
And the last incident, where she forced him to make a breakthrough, she was the likely mastermind.
After all, she’d heard a piece of gossip lately involving Tantai Ming.
Apparently, Tantai Ming was engaged to Wang Yu of Mount Tianjian. Initially, Jiang Yuan considered it a rumor.
But once he learned that Wang Yu was a carrier of the body of Profound Yang, Jiang Yuan knew that the possibility of this being true was quite high.
The body of Profound Yin and the body of Profound Yang were naturally made for each other. If they were to become Dao companions, it would be immensely beneficial to their cultivation.
Put all these events together, and it’s clear who the mastermind is.
After all, he had just arrived at the Supreme Mystery Sect back then. The real conflicts were between several people: Lin Hao, Jiang Tian Jiang Yu, and Tantai Ming.
To go as far as murdering his brother in an attempt to frame him, a move that would have resulted in his immediate execution.
Even Jiang Yu, a disciple of the inner sect, couldn’t manage that.
Looking at Tantai Ming’s tranquil gaze and then glancing around at his surroundings
Jiang Yuan shook his head: “Senior Sister Tantai, whatever you have to say can be said here. It’s inappropriate for a man and woman to be alone together – it could invite gossip.”
“In your eyes, is that the type of person I am?” Tantai Ming’s eyes dimmed, and her voice carried a hint of sorrow.
“What kind of person you are in my eyes doesn’t matter, does it?”
“No!” Tantai Ming shook her head: “It’s important! After all, you are his son.
You look so much like him! In you, I see the shadow of his youth!”
Jiang Yuan’s gaze suddenly sharpened: “Tantai Ming, are you trying to cause trouble for me?”
Upon hearing this, the surrounding people who heard were somewhat confused.
“What’s going on? The conversation seems to be significant. Is there a problem between the two of them?” someone mumbled, scratching their head.
Tantai Ming’s gaze finally showed a hint of fluctuations. She locked eyes with Jiang Yuan for a moment.
Then slowly said, “If you don’t welcome me, then I’ll leave!”
After saying this, she drifted away.
Watching her retreating figure, Jiang Yuan’s expression became somewhat somber, a sense of crisis rising in his heart.
Tantai Ming was up to no good!
She had been waiting here for a long time, clearly trying to attract people’s attention.
Earlier, she wanted to enter his courtyard. This behavior was clearly meant to foment speculation among others.
The highly regarded genius of the outer sect and Fairy Tantai sharing the same room would be enough to create a sensation throughout the entire outer sect within a day.
Given the news of her engagement with Wang Yu, such actions would inevitably plunge him into hot water.
Wang Yu was the most renowned genius of Mount Tianjian’s younger generation, such a person would place great importance on reputation.
Tantai Ming’s actions today made Jiang Yuan understand even more: on the outside she may seem like a fairy, but inside she wasn’t so naive.
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan realized Tantai Ming couldn’t stay.
But the most important thing at the moment was power, which was the foundation for everything.
As for Tantai Ming, there was no need to worry too much at the moment.
That she would go to such lengths indicated that even if she wanted to harm him, she had no opportunity to do so. Otherwise, she wouldn’t need to be so roundabout.
If his guess was correct, her hesitations came from the Supreme Mystery Sect, even from Divine Maiden Peak.
Back then, the incident which took place between Jiang Zhenyuan and Tantai Ming almost turned into a huge disaster.
However, Tantai Ming’s master did not punish Jiang Zhenyuan. Instead, she left a path for him.
Following Tantai Mings path meant that Tantai Ming’s master did not truly loathe Jiang Zhenyuan.
Otherwise, with her strength, if she was displeased with him,
Just one act of will could make Jiang Zhenyuan disappear from the world completely.
On the other side.
After Tantai Ming had left, she turned back to look in Jiang Yuan’s direction. Waves flitting across her eyes.
Jiang Yuan was indeed vigilant.
But upon seeing him again today, she was even more resolved not to leave him be.
Because, at this moment, scenes with Jiang Zhenyuan from that year suddenly resurfaced in her mind, causing waves of emotion in her firmly unwavering Dao heart.
She knew that if she continued like this, her mindset would inevitably change.
Jiang Yuan’s face continuously reminded her of those past scenes with Jiang
Zhenyuan.
The Class A Institute.
As soon as Jiang Yuan sat down, he heard a knock on the door.
“Brother Jiang, it’s me, Liu Jie!”
Seeing Jiang Yuan nodded, Shu Xiaoxiao quickly ran to open the door.
The next moment.
Liu Jie, with a beaming face, and Liu Rushi appeared in front of Jiang Yuan.
“Senior Brother Liu looks very happy, did you get the spiritual stones?”
Liu Jie nodded, “That’s right! I have come here for two things.”
Jiang Yuan said, “Take your time, Senior Brother Liu, and Senior Sister Liu, please sit down first!”
“Alright!” both of them responded.
After sitting down.
Liu Jie took out a Heaven and Earth Bag and continuously pulled out medium-grade spiritual stones from it.
After a moment, he formed a small pile.
Liu Jie said, “Brother Jiang, please look, there are eighty medium-grade spiritual stones here. As I mentioned before, we will share fifty-fifty. What do you think?”
Jiang Yuan shook his head, “This is too much! The majority of your harvest,
Senior Brother Liu, is due to your own efforts.”
Liu Jie looked at Jiang Yuan and said, “You can’t refuse. Without you, I couldn’t possibly have made this fortune. To be true, my wealth mainly depends on your contribution.”
Liu Rushi also spoke up, “Junior Brother Jiang, I have my share too! I dare not risk everything like Senior Brother Liu and just bet a thousand lower-grade spiritual stones.”
After that, she takes out forty medium-grade spiritual stones and places them on the table.
“We share fifty-fifty, you contribute, this is fair, isn’t it?”
Liu Jie added, “Brother Jiang, please accept it! We have another favor to ask you later, how can we open our mouths if you don’t accept this!” Seeing their resolute gazes, Jiang Yuan slowly nodded.
“Alright then!”
Then he waved his hand and the hundred and twenty medium-grade spiritual stones on the table were all collected into the storage ring.
“Senior Brother Liu, since I’ve accepted, why don’t you talk about the other matter.”
Liu Jie said, “It’s a long story. I got an item when I had an adventure outside with Senior Sister Liu.”
After he finished speaking, he took out a black jade pendant.
“This is the key to a cave mansion, one black and one white, totaling two pendants! The other one is with a disciple of the Sunset Sect.”
“With the connection of these two items, I found him, and he also found me. So we made a decision to choose an auspicious day to open the cave together. Whatever we get inside, we will divide equally.”
“He’s afraid I would bring help, and I’m afraid he would do the same. So we made an agreement that if we invite helpers, there shouldn’t be more than three from each side and their cultivation should not surpass the fifth layer of the Meridian Breaking Realm.”
“If the realm is too high, once they are tempted by wealth, all of us would be courting death. ”
“After thinking left and right, only with the presence of Brother Jiang, I would feel completely assured not to be tricked.” “After all, it’s better to be cautious!”
Liu Jie explained slowly.
Jiang Yuan nodded without hesitation, “No problem, when did Senior Brother Liu set the time?”
Liu Jie said, “Not yet decided, we need to discuss this!”
Jiang Yuan pondered for a moment and said, “In that case, why don’t we wait for a month or so, let me breakthrough to the fifth layer of the Meridian Breaking Realm first. Now that I have plenty of cultivation resources, I can break through quickly!”
Liu Jie also nodded, “I have the same thought, but it’s a pity that I just broke through to the fourth layer of Meridian Breaking Realm and it will take a lot of time before I can break through. Senior Sister Liu, on the other hand, is not far from breaking through! Just one month is enough!”
“Alright!” Let’s settle for that then. “In the short term, ten days to half a month, at most a month and a half, I will certainly break through.”
Just as they were about to get up, Jiang Yuan suddenly said, “Senior Brother
Liu, hold on!” “What is it?”
“Do you trust me?”
“Trust! How could I not trust you! If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t have come to find you!” Liu Jie said with a laugh.
[Name]: Liu Jie
[Realm]: Fourth layer of Meridian Breaking Realm
[Innate Luck Power]: Body of Blood Fiend (blue), Master of Knife (green),
Genius in Battle (green), Extraordinary senses (white)
[Body of Blood Fiend]: Special Body Type, practicing Blood and Fiend related techniques and powers are greatly enhanced, like having divine help.
Jiang Yuan looked at Liu Jie’s Status Panel and said, “If that’s the case, Senior Brother Liu, if you truly trust me, then remember to change your practice to the techniques related to the Body of Blood Fiend, especially the
Contemplation Diagram. If you have the opportunity to choose, remember to choose the Contemplation Diagram that is related to the Body of Blood Fiend. But you must never contemplate an external demon that can affect one’s mind. ”
Liu Jie was startled, very few people practice techniques related to the Body of Blood Fiend.
These types of practices are often practiced by those on the path of evil.
However, looking at Jiang Yuan’s serious gaze, there appeared to be no falsehood in it.
He also knew Jiang Yuan’s character, he would never jest about such matters.
Recall the previous battle with Zhou Tuo, each of his strikes accurately hit the weakness in Zhou Tuo’s flow of spiritual power.
This seems to prove that Jiang Yuan’s eyes are special, being able to see through falsehoods.
Thinking about all this, Liu Jie nodded immediately, “Brother Jiang, I will remember your words, and when I go back, I will try training a technique related to the Body of Blood Fiend.”
A prompt suddenly appeared before Jiang Yuan’s eyes.
[Because of your influence, Liu Jie successfully utilizes his potential and his future trajectory has changed. You have gained 63 strands of Luck Power.]
Seeing this prompt, Jiang Yuan understood.
Liu Jie’s decision to change his practice was inevitable.
He could consider this as repaying his favor. When he first joined the Supreme
Mystery Sect and had a conflict with Jiang Tian, if it weren’t for Liu Jie’s help,
He would have been defenseless against Jiang Yu’s arrival, definitely would have lost face and probably seriously injured.
Upon reaching this thought, Jiang Yuan silently put this in his heart. Next, he saw Liu Jie and Liu Rushi off as they left the courtyard..
