Myriad Daos of the Heaven

Chapter 398: Chapter 396: Suu Luo, Where Is Your Integrity?

Jiang Jichen struggled to his feet.

He was truly heavily injured this time.

However, his physical body and qi blood were immensely powerful. He cultivated the Undying Scripture and possessed an endless supply of priceless medicinal treasures.

Recovering from these injuries wouldn’t be difficult.

He first swallowed a handful of Ninth-Grade Qi Blood Pills, Ninth-Grade Muscle Regeneration Powder, and Ninth-Grade Spirit Condensing Pills.

These were all incredibly High Level and precious pills, and it pained him to use them.

Given Jiang Jichen’s injuries, other slightly Low Level pills could have also healed him.

But he needed to recover as quickly as possible, so he didn’t hold back.

After catching his breath, Jiang Jichen finally spoke. "Unless you don’t want the Cyan Phoenix Remnant Technique and have no desire to find the Phoenix Nest!"

The reason Jiang Jichen had dared to go kill Chang Xian’Er alone was, of course, because he had considered the risks and prepared a contingency plan.

He had Suu Luo find Qing Xun and hide a Teleportation Jade Talisman at their appointed location.

Teleportation Jade Talismans were incredibly precious. Only top-tier Noble Families and Sects possessed them.

Someone like Qing Xun, given her status in the Qing Family, was bound to have one.

But she certainly wouldn’t have many—no more than two, and perhaps only this single one.

It was a life-saving treasure, and now that it had been used on Jiang Jichen, she was naturally furious and felt the sting of its loss.

Qing Xun had been very reluctant, but just as Jiang Jichen said, she couldn’t just watch him die.

Otherwise, all her efforts would be for naught, and she would miss out on the greatest opportunity of her lifetime.

As for why the Teleportation Jade Talisman was buried there, it was because it would teleport him precisely five hundred li away.

Although Nangong Wanyu wanted to kill Jiang Jichen, she was more eager to obtain the Half-Immortal Treasure first.

That was why, just as Jiang Jichen was about to cross the five-hundred-li mark, she couldn’t resist attacking, even though it wasn’t the optimal moment.

In the end, Jiang Jichen still managed to escape, just as expected.

Frustrated and enraged, she retreated without giving chase, turning back to contend for the Half-Immortal Treasure.

All of this had gone according to Jiang Jichen’s calculations.

Chang Xian’Er had plotted for Nangong Wanyu to kill him.

His own plot was about how to save his own life and escape to safety.

Jiang Jichen ignored Qing Xun’s resentful expression and greeted Blood Hand. "Brother Blood Hand, it’s been a while. It seems both your bloodline and Cultivation Technique have advanced!"

Blood Hand had entered the Blood Soul Secret Realm, one of the Three Secret Realms of the Exquisite Treasure Tower.

This Secret Realm had caused her Cultivation Technique and bloodline to undergo a transformation.

Moreover, like Qing Xun, she had experienced a trace of ancestral bloodline awakening, making her even more extraordinary.

The two of them were now at the Spirit Infant Middle Realm and were definitely top-tier prodigies among Spirit Infants.

Even Jiang Jichen would have to be wary of them.

After emerging from the Secret Realm, their evolution and transformation had been terrifying.

’I wonder how Hua Xiaoling and Yee Youmeng are doing?’

’The Secret Realms they entered were also extraordinary. Their strength will surely be world-shaking when they come out, so there’s no need to worry about them.’

Seeing Blood Hand, a few emotions flickered through Jiang Jichen’s Divine Thought.

"Yes, and I have Brother Jiang to thank for that. This time, Qing Xun was the one who insisted on dragging me along."

Blood Hand was genuinely grateful to Jiang Jichen. After all, without him, she might not have found a Secret Realm so perfectly suited for her.

At the same time, she also pointed out that Qing Xun had brought her, and that she hadn’t come of her own volition.

After all, for a heaven-shaking secret like this, the fewer people who knew, the better.

They had originally agreed that only the two of them would go.

Hearing Blood Hand’s words, before Jiang Jichen could even speak, Qing Xun cut in resentfully, "Hmph! Blood Hand, are you on my side or his? Besides, he brought someone, so of course I had to bring someone too. To guard against this scoundrel!"

Clearly, Qing Xun was absolutely livid. Jiang Jichen had swindled her out of her life-saving Teleportation Jade Talisman, and she was still brooding over it.

And since she saw that Jiang Jichen had brought Suu Luo, it was only natural for her to bring an extra person as well.

So, she had dragged Blood Hand along!

Suu Luo chimed in from the side, "Sister Qing Xun, Brother Jichen isn’t a scoundrel! And Suu Luo won’t fight with you for treasure. The treasures of the Phoenix Race are useless to an Asura!"

This only made Qing Xun angrier. "Suu Luo, you should follow me from now on. Don’t get too close to Jiang Jichen. You’re too naive; sooner or later, you’ll be tricked by him!"

She couldn’t help but be angry. She felt that a pure and stunningly beautiful girl like Suu Luo had already been brainwashed by Jiang Jichen.

She had to save Suu Luo and pull her from Jiang Jichen’s demonic clutches.

However, if Qing Xun knew that Suu Luo wasn’t always so naive—that she could be invincibly cunning and drive Jiang Jichen mad with frustration—she wouldn’t be thinking this way.

Jiang Jichen chimed in, "That’s right, Suu Luo. You should get closer to your Sister Qing Xun. Yes, she’ll take good care of you. Besides, your Sister Qing Xun is a famous culinary master in Yunshui City!"

Jiang Jichen had personally experienced the full extent of Suu Luo’s foodie capabilities. He was now hatching a wicked plan to let Suu Luo torment Qing Xun.

At the same time, he himself could enjoy a bit of peace and quiet for a while!

Hearing Jiang Jichen’s words, Suu Luo’s beautiful, lively eyes lit up. "Sister Qing Xun, are you really... good at making delicious food?"

Qing Xun was still a bit bewildered.

However, Jiang Jichen was right about one thing: her culinary skills were indeed at a very high level.

Faced with Suu Luo’s expectant and excited gaze, Qing Xun finally nodded. "Yes, I’m decent enough, I suppose."

"Yay! Sister Qing Xun, from now on, you’re my real sister! Suu Luo will definitely follow you and be obedient!"

Suu Luo dashed over, took Qing Xun’s hand, and acted incredibly affectionate.

Qing Xun was confused and puzzled, not understanding why Suu Luo had suddenly become so close to her.

She felt that something wasn’t quite right.

However, she had just told Suu Luo to follow her and stay away from Jiang Jichen, and now it seemed her goal had been achieved.

Blood Hand remained silent. Jiang Jichen watched from the side, giving Qing Xun a strange smile.

’Seeing that scoundrel Jiang Jichen’s malicious smile, something is definitely not right!’

Qing Xun had a bad feeling in her heart, a sense that she’d been tricked.

But things had already come to this. With Suu Luo being so clingy, she couldn’t possibly refuse her. In the end, she could only say firmly, "Don’t worry. Sister Qing Xun will definitely take good care of you, not like a certain someone!"

"Mhm, mhm...!"

This time, Suu Luo surprisingly didn’t say anything nice on Jiang Jichen’s behalf. Instead, she nodded and spoke in support of Qing Xun.

Seeing Suu Luo’s obedient appearance, Qing Xun felt a surge of joy.

Her earlier misgivings were swept away in an instant.

Instead, it was Jiang Jichen’s turn to look thunderous.

’Damn it, Suu Luo, you foodie! Can’t you have a little integrity?’

’I took such good care of you, and now you’ve immediately defected to Qing Xun’s camp just for some food!’

Jiang Jichen couldn’t be bothered with them. He thought to himself, ’Qing Xun, just you wait. You’ll soon learn the true power of a foodie!’

As he thought this, he took out the Phoenix Jade Pendant Fragment and said, "Infuse it with Cyan Phoenix Spiritual Power again. We should at least be able to determine the direction of the Phoenix Nest!"

During this time, the Cyan Phoenix had been diligently cultivating the Cyan Phoenix Remnant Technique.

Condensing thoughts into an endless Phoenix will, urging spirit into an everlasting thread!

Although it was only two lines, the effect was astonishing. She had condensed Cyan Phoenix Spiritual Power that was five times stronger than before.

If she had the subsequent verses of the incantation, the results would be even more unimaginable.
