Chapter 516 - 286: The Last Lesson

Chapter 516: Chapter 286: The Last Lesson

The Law Enforcement Hall prison.

Jiang Man returned to his cell.

He had just finished a long chat with Ting Fengyin.

But it was all small talk, nothing of substance.

He’d gotten some information before, but since little had happened this time, he didn’t know what to ask.

If he had to name something, it was learning the names of the Sun and Moon Immortal Spirits, as well as their strength.

Besides that, he needed to be able to distinguish between the Bai Family Ancestor and Meng Qiewei.

Because if he killed the wrong person, they would be truly dead.

For now, all he could do was wait for specific news about the Bai Family Ancestor.

Once he got the information, he had to warn True Master Tai Hua to leave as soon as possible.

Once caught in this vortex, even someone of his high status and power would find it difficult to escape their doom.

The people on the list were all incredibly influential.

The crime of killing their avatars was too severe.

This was especially true since the other party was abiding by the rules, while the Immortal Sect was killing people in secret, breaking the rules themselves.

Furthermore, Ting Fengyin had reminded him several times that the best choice was to complete the double kill, allowing Zui Fusheng to perish along with them.

This was also to avoid any future repercussions.

During their conversation, Jiang Man told Ting Fengyin about the Ji Family’s arrangements.

Ting Fengyin was quite surprised and wondered what the Ji Family was playing at.

They also told Jiang Man to observe Ji Meng closely, as she might really be the fake Meng Qiewei.

Jiang Man was puzzled. ’Is Meng Qiewei that difficult to get along with?’

Jiang Man recalled her icy demeanor. She really didn’t seem easy to get along with.

A world apart from Miss Ji Meng.

He had no idea which one was the real Meng Qiewei.

Before returning, he had also given the Immeasurable Calamity Stone to Ting Fengyin, asking for help in sealing it a bit.

This new seal bought Jiang Man twenty years.

He was much safer now.

"Old Huang," Jiang Man called out to the Old Yellow Ox.

There was no reaction.

It seemed he’d have to wait two days.

「Two days later.」

Jiang Man emerged from his Cultivation and saw the Old Yellow Ox chewing on grass, ignoring the incessantly chattering Tengu.

"Brother Niu, is the sky outside really blue?"

"How delicious is the food out there?"

"If you go outside, is the air sweet?"

"Old Huang, why are you always like this?" Jiang Man asked.

"You think that person is easy to talk to only because there’s nothing worth him making a move for," the Old Yellow Ox replied casually.

Jiang Man nodded. "That’s true. When he does make a move, I find it terrifying too."

He’s always talking about "minor side effects," but even those are more than I can handle.

Still, he was rather curious. "Do you think there’s a way to confirm that the Bai Family Ancestor is, in fact, the Bai Family Ancestor?"

He then explained his concerns.

"Killing the wrong person?" The Old Yellow Ox nodded. "That’s certainly a possibility, but as long as you meet him and fight him, you probably won’t feel that way."

Jiang Man was curious. "Why?"

"His aura is completely different," the Old Yellow Ox said.

Jiang Man was confused.

Ting Fengyin hadn’t mentioned this.

"That’s because in his eyes, everyone is the same," the Old Yellow Ox explained.

The blind spot of the powerful. Jiang Man understood.

After that, he didn’t dwell on it and instead waited with a peaceful mind.

Waiting for news to arrive, and waiting for his own entry into the Inner Sect.

He had been in the Outer Sect for so long; it was truly time to move up.

There might be many troubles and dangers, but as an Unparalleled Celestial Pride, he naturally had to push through all obstacles.

His name would become known throughout the world.

And while he was at it, he would let the Ji Family see just how dazzling the light of this "fake" son-in-law could be.

Letting his glory shine on the Ji Family ahead of time wasn’t such a bad thing either.

「August 15th.」

Jiang Man and the others were finally "invited" out of the Law Enforcement Hall.

"Tomorrow is the grand competition for the First, Second, and Third Courtyards. Junior Brother is about to enter the Inner Sect, so it’s not appropriate for you to remain here," Ren Qian said.

Jiang Man was rather curious. "I’d like to see Senior Sister Yu."

He wanted to ask if he could still receive his Spiritual Source investment after entering the Inner Sect.

Six thousand a month was a lot of Spiritual Source.

After all, he had more things to spend Spiritual Source on now.

"She’s currently in seclusion for a breakthrough. It should still take some time," Ren Qian replied.

Jiang Man was curious. "Advancing to the Primordial Spirit realm?"

Ren Qian nodded.

Jiang Man was surprised. "It takes this long to advance to the Primordial Spirit realm?"

Ren Qian fell silent for a moment, finally just saying, "Junior Brother, be careful on your way."

Jiang Man left regretfully with the Old Yellow Ox and the Tengu.

The Old Yellow Ox was silent, but the Tengu was extremely excited.

It gazed at the majestic sky, breathing in the air of freedom.

Sensing the beauty of the outside world.

Old Meng really hadn’t lied to it; the outside world was beautiful and free.

"Master, where are we going now?" the Tengu asked excitedly.

It wanted to travel to every corner, feel the magnificence of the earth, and experience the changes in culture.

But a moment later, it was tossed into a courtyard.

Jiang Man said, "I’m going to check on the small courtyard. You two stay here and guard the house."

With that, he left on his sword, heading for the First Courtyard on Cloud Mist Peak.

The Old Yellow Ox lowered its head to eat grass.

The Tengu looked this way and that, exceptionally excited.

Every time it saw something new, it would ask the Old Yellow Ox what it was.

The Old Yellow Ox would occasionally offer a reply, but it didn’t answer every question.

But the Tengu didn’t mind. It had too many questions and was encountering too many new things.

It couldn’t be bothered with anything else.

After a long period of excitement, it had finally seen everything there was to see.

It rubbed its belly. It was a little hungry.

It promptly went over to the Old Yellow Ox and said, "Brother Niu, what delicious food are we eating?"

The Old Yellow Ox glanced at it and pointed to the Spirit Grass on the ground.

The Tengu was bewildered. "We’re eating this?"

After getting an affirmative answer, the Tengu’s eyes immediately lit up. "So this is the delicious food?"

Saying that, it excitedly took a bite.

Then, after chewing a few times, it spat it out. "Brother Niu, is this edible?"

"You’ll get used to it," the Old Yellow Ox said calmly.

The Tengu froze for a second, then asked, "So what are we having for dinner tonight?"
