Free Web NovelChapter 949: Chapter 195: Do You Know _3
His brows twitched, "He really completed the cleansing of sins in such a short time!"
When Jiang Wang entered the Lost World, it was on the day of the Sea Sacrifice Ceremony, April 4th. He encountered an ambush on the eighth day of entering the Lost World. Facing nine enemies alone, he killed six and forced back three before returning to the island to rest.
On the ninth day, he ran into Sea Clan soldiers surrounding the Floating Island.
He broke out of the encirclement on the same day, and, with the suppression of the Floating Map Pure Land, he nearly exterminated the Sea Race Warriors besieging him, completing the cleansing of his sins.
That day was April 13th.
In just nine short days, he killed over a hundred Commander-level Sea Clan, even if they were all at the beginner level of commanders, this was still an incredibly impressive feat!
On average, it’s like killing over ten Outer Building-level cultivators every day.
What does that mean?
It’s only because the Lost World is a battlefield where the entire Eastern Region Human Race confronts the entire Canghai Sea Tribe, and it’s filled with strong contenders, that it doesn’t seem so horrifying.
But the death of a hundred Commander-level Sea Clan effectively emptied the elite forces of an entire Sea Nest.
Even the White Elephant King would feel the pain of such a loss.
Why did Fu Yanqing hold Jiang Wang in such high regard? Because he knew that among these hundred Commander-level Sea Clan, there were even absolute powerhouses like Shuiying Shuang, Yu Wangu, and Yu Siqing.
Even without knowing the inside story, judging by the battle achievements Xu Yuan now witnessed, this was definitely a performance worthy of a prodigy.
He had no reason to conceal it for Ji Shaoqing; in fact, if he could embarrass Ji, he would certainly not mind.
Zhongxuan Sheng then looked at Ji Shaoqing, "Did you hear that? Brother Xu Yuan surely wouldn’t lie on our behalf, right? Can we now let him go?"
"Of course, since Brother Xu said so, there certainly won’t be any problems."
Ji Shaoqing smiled, "Then please, have Jiang Wang come to claim his people, Ji will not stand in the way."
His mouth said he would not stand in the way, yet he insisted that only Jiang Wang could come and take them away!
Everyone knew that before Jiang Wang set off for the Lost World, Zhu Bijin was already at death’s door. Wei Xun pressured Jiang Wang into completing the cleansing of sins in a shorter time, using Zhu Bijin’s life as leverage.
And Zhongxuan Sheng and the others kept coming over, precisely to ensure Zhu Bijin’s safety before Jiang Wang returned, so that his struggle to the death wasn’t in vain!
Ji Shaoqing was fully aware of their feelings, even insisting on not letting them take Zhu Bijin away for treatment just to annoy them!
Xu Yuan furrowed his brows, not understanding what point Ji Shaoqing had in dragging out the time; could it change the outcome whether it was sooner or later? It was merely a way to vex Jiang Wang and gratuitously lose the dignity of the Diao Hai Building.
Unwilling to stand by, he spoke out, "Junior Brother Ji, does the End of the World Platform need your personal supervision? Have you been too idle these days?"
The possibility of Gu Huaixin’s faction rising was impeded on the End of the World Platform, and many plans fell through; they were indeed "too idle" now, weren’t they?
What he didn’t know was that Ji Shaoqing didn’t need a reason; he just wanted to irritate Zhongxuan Sheng and the others to alleviate the Resentment Qi in his heart.
Upon hearing him, he said, "I know Brother Xu has been busy these days and doesn’t want to bother with trifles. However, guarding the End of the World Platform wasn’t a command from my elders; it was voluntarily undertaken by Ji. But upholding the dignity and authority of our Fishing Sea Tower is an undeniable responsibility for every Fishing Sea Tower Disciple!"
"Enough!" Jiang Wuyou’s eyebrows inverted in anger as she chastised, "The sins have been cleansed, and the verification is completed, yet you still quibble here, as if you can act with impunity under the name of the Diao Hai Building? Do you think my palace halberd is blunt?"
"Palace Master, why such words! Where is this quibbling? I said if Jiang Wang comes over, he can take the person away at any time. What’s the problem with that?" Ji Shaoqing looked at her unflinchingly, "Palace Master Your Highness, I have to remind you, this is Huai Island!"
He even provocatively looked at Zhongxuan Sheng and the others: "If you want to make trouble, Ji might be untalented, but he certainly has the courage to accompany you!"
His cultivation was at the Perfect level of the Five Mansions, and he claimed two Divine Skills for himself; even when speaking purely of combat ability, he certainly didn’t fear these noble scions standing before him. Not to mention, this was the End of the World Platform!
As Ji Shaoqing’s voice fell, the Black Armor Warriors who were originally stationed around the End of the World Platform also turned their gaze towards this scene.
No matter what background Jiang Wuyou, Zhongxuan Sheng, and the rest had, causing trouble on Huai Island and going against the people of the Diao Hai Building, there was only disadvantage. If they couldn’t even suppress these young ones, the Diao Hai Building couldn’t even think of uniting the Near Sea Archipelago.
"I am speaking now on behalf of Eternal Winter Island as a member of the Seize Sea Alliance."
Zhongxuan Sheng narrowed his eyes and said, "If the Seize Sea Alliance truly wishes to unite the Near Sea, the first step is to clearly reward and punish, to reason and abide by rules! Jiang Wang has already completed the cleansing of sins, Zhu Bijin is now innocent, on what grounds do you still imprison her?"
Those close to him knew that when this chubby fellow narrowed his eyes, it meant his killing intent was stirred.
Unfortunately, Ji Shaoqing didn’t know, or even if he did, relying on the Diao Hai Building, he didn’t care.
Upon hearing him, Ji Shaoqing replied, "If I remember correctly, our Tower Master said that once Jiang Wang completes the cleansing of sins, he can take her away."
He swept his gaze over Zhongxuan Sheng, Jiang Wuyou, Li Longchuan, Yan Fu, emphasizing, "Jiang Wang can take her away, not anyone among you."
Then he even turned back to look at Xu Yuan: "Brother Xu, just because someone gave you a sea border list, can you forget the Tower Master’s words? Otherwise, Ji can also give you one, just asking you not to forget your roots! How about it?"
"You!"
Xu Yuan’s face turned red with anger, but ultimately, he had nothing to retort with.
Because what Ji Shaoqing said was true.
Even if Wei Xun merely said it in passing at the time, it likely wasn’t supposed to be so strict that Jiang Wang had to personally return to the End of the World Platform after completing the cleansing to take Zhu Bijin away.
But what if?
Who would dare to seek confirmation from Wei Xun? freeweɓnovel.cѳm
Ji Shaoqing regarded every word of the Diaohai Tower Master as the truth, so who could find fault with that?
Jiang Wuyou and Zhongxuan Sheng couldn’t fault it.
And as a Fishing Sea Tower Disciple, Xu Yuan certainly couldn’t!
