Chapter 982: Chapter 982: Jiang the Shameless
As more and more things are encountered, many things that were originally incomprehensible gradually surfaced.
Whether it was the Holy Medical Scripture or the Seven-Star Tomb, this was definitely not something the beautiful master arranged randomly, but rather deliberate.
Of course, Liu Zixuan at this moment doesn’t really want to ask the beautiful master, nor is he in a hurry to explore these anymore. One reason is that the beautiful master would definitely not lie to him, and secondly, he believes that all the previous fog should gradually clear, and he will soon see the truth of everything.
Ye Lianyi smiled and said, "No matter what, your master wouldn’t harm you. But as for the Seven-Star Tomb, do you plan to go?"
"Since it can help Brother Xuan, then we definitely have to go!" Zhao Yi said.
Liu Zixuan flicked the ash off his cigarette, "Lianyi’s implication is that she’s worried I might be tricked by the old man who gave me the location."
"Yeah, what if it’s a trap set by the enemy? After all, the old ancestor of the Willow Association knows the secret of the Seven-Star Tomb too." Ye Lianyi spread her hands.
Liu Zixuan took a few deep puffs of his cigarette, then heavily stubbed out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, stood up, and said, "If it weren’t for the elder when I first picked you up, we might not be in the situation we are now. Moreover, in this situation, I have to take a gamble!"
"Zixuan..." Ye Lianyi’s face showed a worried expression.
Liu Zixuan waved his hand and said, "Lianyi, you should understand me. Daring to gamble is already half the win. Besides, we’re racing against the Celestial Dao Alliance to strengthen our power. I am the backbone of this team, and I must have enough cards to protect you all."
"Then I’ll go with you." Ye Lianyi said seriously.
"No need. Someone has to stay here and contact the Shi Family." Liu Zixuan thought for a moment: "Zhao Yi is currently at a breakthrough bottleneck, so let him go with me. Lianyi, you and Xiaoxiao stay here. You’re both already in the Innate Emperor Realm, and as long as those few ancestors don’t all come, you should be able to handle it."
"Alright. But you must be safe." Ye Lianyi said.
Liu Zixuan nodded: "No time to waste, Old Zhao, let’s get going. Let’s aim to be back in three days!"
"Okay!" Zhao Yi’s wife was far away in Lingxiu Village, so he was alone here, not needing any preparation, and directly walked out with Liu Zixuan.
As they reached the door, Xiao Bin returned with a group of Shadow Guards.
"Master Xuan, where are you going?" Xiao Bin asked.
"Zhao Yi and I are going out for some business, probably two or three days. During this time, have the brothers hide around instead of staying all here. If something happens, it will be easier to find us."
Liu Zixuan took a deep breath and said solemnly, "I’ll give you an address later. If something drastic happens and we can’t come back, send someone to the address I give you. Explain the situation, and someone will help you!"
"Got it!" This is the first task for the Shadow Guard since their emergence, so Xiao Bin would certainly take it seriously.
Liu Zixuan pulled out his phone, composed a message, and sent it to Xiao Bin. After patting him on the shoulder, he got in the car with Zhao Yi and headed out.
...
At the Celestial Dao Alliance Headquarters.
"Old Ancestor, we just got word that Liu Zixuan and his brothers have all left there, and their whereabouts are unknown." A martial artist respectfully reported to the old ancestor of the Willow Association.
The old ancestor squinted his eyes, scanning the surrounding ancestors: "He once raised the flag high, and now he’s daring enough to leave their established stronghold, which corroborates our previous speculations."
The old ancestor of the Gu Family asked sternly: "You mean he’s found a very powerful backer?"
The old ancestor of the Willow Association nodded: "Yes, and regardless of whether he has that powerful backer or not, our Celestial Dao Alliance can’t afford further losses, because of his flag-raising, quite a few sects that pledged their allegiance are now wavering, thinking about turning to him. If we send people over now, it might cost us."
"And many of our sub-branches have been destroyed. What’s left are treasures that we absolutely can’t send out lightly. We old guys can’t make our move until the last moment."
"Are we just going to let them do whatever they want?" The old ancestor of the Zhong Family asked unhappily.
"Of course not. It’s time to find someone to probe Liu Zixuan for us!" The old ancestor of the Willow Association smiled slyly, "You all sit tight, I’m going to chat with that old poisonous creature!"
When they heard the words "old poisonous creature," all the ancestors first looked surprised, then sneered. They were all terrified of Venerable Ghost Nether, and letting him trouble Liu Zixuan promised some real entertainment...
Just as Liu Zixuan and the Celestial Dao Alliance each moved on their plans, another scene unfolded in the Jiang Family’s living room, located in a certain place in the Star Sea.
"Little Ancestor, can we eat something?"
A man with a sly grin held a bowl of white fungus and lotus seed soup, speaking to Jiang Yiyi.
Jiang Yiyi glared with her pretty eyes, "Jiang, you’re shameless. If you keep favoring him, I’ll go on a hunger strike!"
"Yiyi, how can you talk to your dad like that!" A super beautiful woman beside her tugged on Jiang Yiyi, scolding angrily.
Jiang Yiyi clung to the beautiful woman’s arm coquettishly, "Mom, Dad is partial. Since childhood, whatever Jiang Yunxuan wanted, he got. Whenever he wanted to go out and train, Dad would send him off without a word. But look at me; I finally get to go out for a while, only to be brought back by a single word, and now he won’t let me go out again. What’s up with that?"
The beautiful woman smiled, "Your dad is doing this for your own good. The Martial Realm is chaotic; what’s a young girl like you doing out there?"
"But didn’t you run around with Dad in those days?" Jiang Yiyi said unhappily.
"Brother Fan, news just arrived." At this moment, Wang Liang walked over from the side hall, speaking in a low voice.
The man Jiang Yiyi called shameless, who is her and Jiang Yunxuan’s father, Jiang Yifan.
He raised his eyebrows slightly, the sly grin on his face quickly disappearing, replaced by a playful one: "How is it?"
"Yunxuan has gone to the Northwest Wilderness, likely aiming for that Dragon Vein," Wang Liang grinned, "and that old poisonous thing is there too."
"Venerable Ghost Nether?"
"Correct." Wang Liang paused, "Should I go protect Yunxuan?"
"Go ahead. He’s just one step away from the Innate Emperor Realm, but remember not to intervene unless absolutely necessary!"
Jiang Yifan thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, who was secretly helping that kid Liu Zixuan earlier? Did you find out?"
Wang Liang smiled faintly and took a photo out of his pocket, handing it over. "An old acquaintance of ours."
Jiang Yifan took the photo and suddenly sneered, "No way. This old guy said back then he wouldn’t come out unless the world was ending. Why’s he out helping Liu Zixuan now?"
