Are such people worthy of being saved? Forgiven?
She did not know, nor could she answer, but she knew the rule of the Cultivation World was to execute the opponent imdiately. However, Jiang Feng chose to break the rule.
It wasn’t simply sparing a life; he genuinely tried to change the person, engaging personally, empathizing, and understanding their situation before finally choosing such a way to liberate them from their nightmare.
This was his unique charisma.
Decisive and resolute.
It doesn’t simply an being rciless in killing but emphasizes decisiveness and resolve in decision-making, soone who can make wise decisions quickly at crucial monts, with a clean and straightforward execution of decisions without hesitation.
Cen Yueyue did not ask what if Wu Daoxu chooses to fall into evil again in the future because she trusted Jiang Feng’s judgnt.
The two strolled together in the rain, not a drop could touch their bodies, holding a paper umbrella, letting the rain slide off, but as soon as it approached their clothes, an invisible force seed to separate them, showcasing their exquisite control of Spiritual Energy.
Unconsciously, they walked to a place that felt both familiar and strange.
All around was unusually dim, except for this street, which was brightly lit. Each house had red lanterns hanging under the eaves, especially delightful in this heavy rain, with doors open to reveal won sitting inside at a glance.
Looking curious, occasionally standing on tiptoes to peek inside. This scene left Jiang Feng unsure whether to laugh or cry as he gently patted her on the back.
"Why are you so curious about a place like Firework Alley?"
"Because I’ve never been there, and you used to hang around these places every day, didn’t you think I wouldn’t know? Quickly, tell what’s fun there."
She tilted her head back.
The silver accessories in her hair jingled, her mouth pouted, yet Jiang Feng showed no embarrassnt, naturally walking with the umbrella while addressing the girl’s doubts.
"There’s nothing particularly fun, just reciting poetry, drinking, singing and acting. Larger brothels have won adept in all arts, but as long as you don’t stay overnight, nothing much happens, rely listening to a tune."
"I spent quite a bit of ti in brothels... why are you looking at like that, have you forgotten how I started cultivating?"
Just as she was about to punch Jiang Feng, she rembered that Jiang Feng seed to have initially practiced Wild Fox Zen, ntioning being guided by won in brothels, her eyes swiftly lighting up with recognition.
"It’s your often-ntioned two sisters who taught you cultivation, I rember they were t in a brothel, right?"
"Sort of,"
nodding slightly.
"Don’t underestimate this place, Firework Alley saved my life twice."
"Back then, I was nearly killed. After barely saving my life, I started gathering news about Xue Wuwei, then learned he visited Firework Alley daily and had to return ho after midnight due to family obligations."
"That’s how I got the chance to take him down. Honestly, I was quite audacious; I hadn’t even started cultivation but fought with an Essence Bodyguard. Coincidentally, it was also a rainy night, or you might not have had the chance to know ."
"I used all sorts of tricks, oh, when we were hunted by Wu Mingsheng, I used so tactics I prepared for them. There’s still plenty left at ho now."
Nodding vigorously, looking like a curious child.
The little couple naturally had much to talk about upon eting. Today, Jiang Feng was exceptionally patient, clearly in a good mood. Compared to directly killing an Evil Cultivator, he obviously preferred seeing the current outco.
"Don’t underestimate Qingshui County just because it’s a county. It’s already considered a major city in the border areas. Including the floating population and rchants, it likely has over ten thousand people."
"Ordinary officials and gentry love to co here for entertainnt. Our sect has quite a few people stationed locally. That steward is a Sect Disciple who can always find help when we get into fights outside."
"Another purpose is wealth acquisition, including collecting various dicinal herbs for Elixir refining and materials for crafting Magic Treasures, as buying them directly with silver from locals is quite efficient."
"Speaking of which, two sisters who saved my life worked here, responsible for gathering information and money. Look, Ethereal Violet Pavilion, that’s the place."
"Both sisters were fox spirits, yes, not an insult. They were from the Fox Clan, so their business bood and flourished. However, after being taken by my senior sister, Yu Ying took charge here, leaving it to another outside steward."
"That’s An Xuan, who just reported to . Her Cultivation Realm is a bit weak, but guarding the border is sufficient. By the way, quite a few disciples from your Southern Border have recently entered Long Country for training, bound to cause clashes."
"If you don’t want to see them fighting, I can ask An Xuan to greet Cen Family Village disciples should they et."
But Cen Yueyue rely turned her head. Their distance was already quite close, such a turn brought her warm breath near, as she waved her fist proudly.
"No need. Our Cen Family Village disciples won’t cause trouble like those from other families. Haven’t you noticed those troublemakers were exiled to border villages?"
"... That’s true."
The two bantered back and forth. Despite the pouring rain, their spirits remained undampened until they unknowingly returned ho, setting down and shaking the paper umbrella, though a sowhat redundant gesture.
Upon entering, Cen Yueyue was surprised to find a petite figure busying herself in the living room.
"Greetings, sir."
"Greetings..."
She gazed at Cen Yueyue in confusion.
Her expression was surprised, as the woman clearly donned Southern Border attire. Most border disciples had conflicts with Southern Border folks, so seeing Jiang Feng bring back a Southern Border woman was shocking.
"This is the lady,"
"Ah, greetings, madam."
She felt shocked inside.
Despite her surprise, the girl politely bowed, sneaking glances at Cen Yueyue before knowingly preparing tea, while Cen Yueyue turned her head.
"A hidden beauty?"
Though not directly stated, her gaze implied it clearly, casting a suspicious look at soone. But Jiang Feng naturally sat down, his tone calm, for he indeed had no guilty conscience.
"This is An Xuan’s daughter, nad An Rou, already at her blossoming age. After I left Qingshui County, she managed and settled here. You can probably sense the Sword Qi left by my senior sister, making training here very effective."
"I plan to have her participate in the sect assessnt after she successfully establishes her Foundation, like I did before. The child has good talent and character. Swordmaster Peak recently reopened its Mountain Gate, quite lacking people."
"Oh, shall we talk about—"
