Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

Book 2: Chapter 33: Winner

Lian Que carefully put away his life token, without saying anything else, he just asked, "What weapon do you use?"

Jiang Wang didn't know how he lost his long sword in the Tianfu Secret Realm, and his hands happened to be empty. Moreover, the Li family in Chiyang County seemed to be skilled in weapon forging.

So he didn't hesitate and said directly, "Sword."

Lian Que nodded, "I will go back and prepare the materials. Whenever you have time, come to Nanyao City and I will forge a sword for you."

After saying that, he turned and left, very straightforward.

In fact, he could have left as soon as he came out of the Tianfu Secret Realm, but he realized that his life token was missing, so he waited by the Full Moon Pool.

As soon as Lian Que left, Wang Yiwu stepped out of the Moon Gate.

In fact, most of the people who hadn't left the scene were waiting for his news.

Including Lian Que and Shisi, out of the fifty people who participated in the Tianfu Secret Realm this time, only eight survived.

The Moon Gate fell back into the water and disappeared.

At this time, the night sky was bright with stars, but the reflection of the moon could no longer be seen on the surface of the Full Moon Pool.

Wang Yiwu walked out of the Moon Gate and went straight to Zhongxuan Sheng, "You are lucky."

"You too." Zhongxuan Sheng smiled, "Otherwise, how could you have snatched the opportunity like me?"

Listening to his tone, Jiang Wang suddenly thought of a phrase, hiding a knife in a smile.

Zhongxuan Sheng might not be able to defeat Wang Yiwu in battle, but he definitely had the upper hand in verbal sparring.

Wang Yiwu shifted his gaze and swept over Jiang Wang, Li Longchuan, and Xu Xiangqian one by one.

"You guys did well. I remember."

As for Zhang Yong, who only showed his Circulating Realm cultivation, he was ignored.

In fact, Zhang Yong's success made many people rethink the danger of the Tianfu Secret Realm. They thought that perhaps luck was more important than strength in this secret realm.

Xu Xiangqian couldn't understand, "If you're sick, go to the Eastern King Valley for treatment. What does it have to do with me?"

He came from the Qingya Academy and was not from the Qi Kingdom, so he was not afraid of Wang Yiwu. He also lacked awe for the Great Qi Military God behind him.

"He thinks..." Zhongxuan Sheng didn't come forward to explain at this time, which was really a waste of his eloquence. "Although everyone doesn't remember what happened, if it weren't for the four of us joining forces in the Tianfu Secret Realm, I would never have been able to snatch the opportunity in front of him, or even survive."

Although Wang Yiwu did have this intention, some words could maintain peace if left unspoken, but once spoken, they would inevitably cause conflicts.

Because some cultivators represented not only themselves but also the dignity of their family to some extent.

Li Longchuan said coldly, "Wang Yiwu, you are too arrogant!"

Wang Yiwu didn't explain, he meant what he said. He could bear the slight dissatisfaction of these people.

He just said to Zhongxuan Sheng, "Zhongxuan Sheng, you better stop while you're ahead. You should know that the Divine Court is not that great."

"Wang Xiong, you have advised me twice. It's not a big deal if you keep doing it." Zhongxuan Sheng still smiled, looking harmless like a human and animal, "Otherwise, why don't you try to persuade my elder brother? Maybe he will listen to you."

The elder brother mentioned by Zhongxuan Sheng was naturally Zhongxuan Zun.

Wang Yiwu didn't say anything more and turned to leave.

He realized that even if he could punch this fat man ten times, he could never be his match in terms of eloquence.

But the other party was the legitimate descendant of the Zhongxuan family, and he couldn't just punch him whenever he wanted.

...

As soon as Wang Yiwu left, Zhongxuan Sheng immediately climbed up the pole and bowed to the others, "Thank you all for your help in the Tianfu Secret Realm!"

It seemed that he completely forgot how cautious he was towards Li Longchuan before entering the Tianfu Secret Realm.

He cared more about personal relationships than Wang Yiwu, and even Zhang Yong was not excluded from his gratitude.

No one knew what happened in the Tianfu Secret Realm, but it was never wrong to make a few friends. Especially these "friends" were all expected to have divine abilities.

Li Longchuan didn't want to interfere in the internal power struggle of the Zhongxuan family, so he just smiled and didn't say anything.

Zhang Yong seemed to be very introverted and not used to this kind of scene. He just nodded and said, "What can I do to help? Maybe it's all thanks to you guys."

"No problem, no problem." Xu Xiangqian didn't even know if he had helped or not, but he shamelessly accepted the thanks.

As long as there were thanks, praises, and compliments, he would accept them.

Jiang Wang was also there, not saying a word. But he knew that he must have made a move in the Tianfu Secret Realm because his sword was no longer with him.

He had never let go of his sword even after trekking through thousands of mountains, let alone in the Tianfu Secret Realm.

He comprehended the embryonic form of three sword techniques during his journey. The Sword of the Sun, Moon, Stars, the Sword of Mountains, Rivers, and Streams, and the Sword of the Vast Sea of People.

They were only perfected at the moment of drawing the sword.

This was his biggest trump card at present.

Unfortunately, the memory of his body had also been erased, and he didn't know which sword he had used.

The grand event of the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm, which only occurs once every twelve years, had come to an end. Everyone chatted casually for a while before going their separate ways.

Zhong Xuan Sheng turned his head and said, "Fourteen, let's go!"

Fourteen, fully armored, silently followed behind him.

Jiang Wang walked beside them. He had never heard Fourteen utter a single word, but he inexplicably felt that the aura of these two was very harmonious.

"We grew up together since we were kids!" Noticing Jiang Wang's gaze, Zhong Xuan Sheng laughed heartily.

No wonder he didn't treat Fourteen as a mere bodyguard.

Two companions who grew up together, one became a noble son of a prestigious family, the other became a personal bodyguard. It was inevitable to sigh at the whims of fate.

But who said that isn't what fate is?

As they left Full Moon Lake, they unexpectedly saw Zhang Yong being surrounded by a group of people, looking quite flustered.

Zhong Xuan Sheng chuckled and explained, "They're trying to recruit him."

Despite what Wang Yiwu had said earlier about the Inner Mansion Divine Power not being a big deal, or perhaps he truly had the audacity to say so.

But in reality, a future Inner Mansion Divine Power practitioner was enough to attract various forces to vie for him.

The reason everyone was surrounding Zhang Yong was not because they were uninterested in the others, but because they knew their limits.

Xu Xiangqian belonged to the Qingya Academy, Li Longchuan was from the Stone Gate Li family, Wang Yiwu was a disciple of the War God. Zhong Xuan Sheng was a disciple of the Zhong Xuan family, and Jiang Wang was his hired help, naturally belonging to the Zhong Xuan family by default.

They had no chance of recruiting any of them.

Only Zhang Yong, although his ancestors were also illustrious, the Phoenix Immortal Zhang family had fallen long ago. There was still a great chance to recruit him.

Seeing him looking helpless, Jiang Wang called out, "Zhang Yong! We're still waiting for you!"

Zhong Xuan Sheng, being a cunning man, immediately stepped forward and hooked Zhang Yong's shoulder, "We told you to wait inside, but you insisted on waiting outside. Let's go, the food and drinks will get cold!"

Zhang Yong was then "rescued" from the crowd in a daze.

After walking on the streets of Heavenly Mansion City for a while, Zhang Yong hesitated and said, "I, I don't want to join any other family..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he lowered his head, looking quite apologetic.

Zhong Xuan Sheng laughed heartily, perhaps because he was shameless himself, he liked people who had a sense of shame, "We were close comrades in the Heavenly Mansion Secret Realm, do you think our relationship is only about recruitment?"

"No, I didn't mean that..."

"Alright, I won't keep you for drinks." Zhong Xuan Sheng cut him off, patting Zhang Yong's shoulder, "You should go home. Your family must be waiting for you to return in glory!"

Zhang Yong was still stammering.

Jiang Wang urged, "Hurry up and leave, or those people will come to pull you again!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yong didn't even have time to say goodbye, he ran off in a puff of smoke.

Because there were too many shameless people in this world, sometimes shy and introverted people seemed incredibly adorable.

However, for some reason, as he watched Zhang Yong's retreating figure, Jiang Wang suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.

But he couldn't figure out where this feeling came from.
