"...Huh?"
Bewildered.
Confused.
Eyes wide like a dog’s.
He truly doesn’t rember.
As a modern person, especially one who has been beaten by society, Jiang Feng was basically the most miserable worker in the old world. Don’t be fooled by his office job; in reality, he was no different from those outside doing manual labor.
The sa early mornings and late nights, the sa overti, the sa bosses rotating their education role, treading on thin ice. When Jiang Feng was young, he was impulsive and rebelled, but the reality was that under trendous life pressure, he had no choice but to resign himself and compromise with life.
This is the state of most ordinary people.
It’s a never-ending grind, with no room for promotion, no matter how hard one works, unable to cross class barriers. Because he’s experienced this, he sotis complains to Senior Sister, whether about the ti he lived in or this sowhat outdated era.
For ordinary people, the space they have to exert their capabilities is really too small. Don’t let his current success deceive you; his past days of being an ox or horse were the most frightening and suffocating. Those years working in the big city are an unforgettable mory for him.
"You forgot?"
"How could your mory be worse than mine at such a young age? A year ago, you complained to that even within the Cultivation World, most disciples have talent but lack aptitude. In the eyes of the sects, these disciples aren’t worth cultivating but can’t be abandoned lightly."
"That’s what you talked about as the grassroots, who won’t starve but also have no room for upward mobility, leading to a diocre life. If we treat people like this, just give them a chance to climb up, and they can easily be swayed with a few words."
"I rember you ntioned to that if we want to develop our inside line in other sects, we should look for those disciples with below-average status, who have been stuck in place for years."
"Just give them a chance to rise, and they’ll be willing to do anything. This, still, was what you told ."
Sudden realization.
He rembered when Senior Sister pointed it out, and Jiang Feng imdiately reacted.
"Is Xuan Xiaozi how he got in?"
"Mm."
She nodded.
From Senior Sister’s eyes, he unexpectedly saw undeniable admiration and praise, which left Jiang sowhat flattered, but upon reflection:
Why am I feeling flattered about this crap!
Isn’t this a self-fulfilling prophecy?
It’s pure bad luck; whatever he spoke, it ca true. Previously, he thought about using this way for the sect to plant so spies in other sects to play spy gas, but it landed on him before even starting. Am I the guinea pig?
"What exactly is up with that guy? While trapped in the array, he was completely deranged, wailing like a ghost..."
"You probably don’t know the details of that day when I was locked in the black room, do you?"
In truth, she really didn’t know.
Even though she left a strand of Divine Soul there, that strand won’t act unless it’s a dire necessity, always monitoring the serpent in Jiang Feng’s Dantian, unless it’s like the last ti when Jiang Feng encountered Jin Shan and provoked the demon monk.
Only in such cases would her Divine Soul co out to help her Junior Brother clean up the ss. But this ti, before she got the chance, Xuan Xiaozi had already intruded into the Dantian.
Honestly, when the Divine Soul residing in her Junior Brother’s Dantian witnessed this scene, it was completely dumbfounded.
"That day, I was fighting Xiao Xuan. Before the fight, I felt a strong sense of unease. Logically, I should have given up on the competition and chosen to surrender, but there was still a bit of wishful thinking in my mind, considering this was within the sect."
"Senior Sister, you once told to trust my instincts, that the awareness honed between life and death doesn’t lie. However, I never thought soone could reach into the sect, which was indeed a bit careless. By the ti I wanted to escape our entanglent, it was too late."
"At that ti, Xiao Xuan used so technique. His elent seed to be tal, and when he exercised Daoist Skills, countless gold pillars stood tall. At first glance, they were white, but upon seeing those towering golden pillars, sothing felt wrong."
"Those were bones."
"I had seen the exact sa thing while fighting Xuan Yinzi. That was when I realized Xiao Xuan was acting strange, planning to escape, but that damn Deacon Ma threw down an array."
"He claid it was to prevent affect on other spectators, but it was actually to trap inside. Then the bastard stopped acting, exploded his body, ripped open his flesh and bones with large hands, sending blood flying everywhere, startling ."
"No matter how much I fought, it was useless; the more I stabbed him with my sword, the more he delighted in spraying blood, especially that array, which was definitely Earth Rank, a legitimate Earth Rank Magic Treasure."
"I used both the Demon Heart Technique and the Nine Swords Return as well, and this piece of iron wire in my hand was almost broken, yet still couldn’t leave a mark on it, let alone shatter it, not even making a scratch. Sure, I’m lousy, but that’s not the point."
"The commotion outside was quite large. From inside, I could see people outside were attacking this array with all their might. There were even disciples forming a Sword Array, yet still, it remained unhard."
"So I could only use the Lightning Source to protect my body, trying to hold out for a while. But Xuan Xiaozi’s ans were truly terrifying; his body’s blood and flesh directly beca Blood Mist, perating the air seamlessly."
"Even when I held my breath and concentrated, the Blood Mist still slowly seeped into my body. The key is this guy’s Divine Soul; I didn’t even know when it stealthily slipped in."
