"Could it be the nine-tailed fox demon?"
Jiang Shouzhong imdiately thought of the secret revealed by Rong Yuhe.
It was said that a nine-tailed fox demon was suppressed under Huailan Lake.
Later, Jiang Shouzhong had asked Jiang Yi about the nine-tailed fox demon; she said that this fox demon was a demonic queen of a previous dynasty, with a venomous heart, and many people attributed the downfall of that dynasty to her.
Now, Yan Changqing wanted to go to the bottom of the lake to save soone, and the only possibility was this fox demon.
Yan Changqing didn’t say it outright, he just asked, "Did you encounter the Asura Queen in Qingzhou?"
"I didn’t."
Jiang Shouzhong shook his head, "But from what I can tell, the Asura Queen has already been released. Master, do you think the Asura Queen is very powerful?"
Yan Changqing said, "Of course she is powerful; if her strength is restored, she could possibly be the strongest in the world."
"That strong?" Jiang Shouzhong was astonished.
Just as Yan Changqing was about to speak, he saw Er Liang standing at the door glaring at him and laughed, "This little girl is still angry with , blaming for not going to protect you earlier."
He waved at Er Liang.
The latter pouted and turned her head to walk out of the room.
Feeling slighted, Yan Changqing coughed awkwardly and resud the earlier topic, sighing, "The Emperor was a bit too arrogant this ti, I hope it doesn’t cause too much trouble."
Jiang Shouzhong suddenly rembered sothing, unsure whether to speak of it or not.
After hesitating for a mont, he still broached the subject, "Right, Master, I encountered that second wife of yours this ti."
"Is she well?"
Yan Changqing’s face did not show any unusual expressions, as if he had only heard an old friend’s na.
"Uh, how should I put it?"
Recalling the man who fawned over that woman like a lovesick fool, Jiang Shouzhong couldn’t outright say it, scratching his head, "It was quite unexpected, hard to imagine how you two were once husband and wife."
Yan Changqing spoke gently:
"Everyone, in every phase, ets what they think is the right person, but people change. After this phase, they may not be whom you like."
"Makes sense."
Jiang Shouzhong appeared reflective.
At that mont, recalling sothing, Yan Changqing’s eyes showed a trace of worry, and he softly said, "My first wife was from the Asura Clan."
"Ah?"
Jiang Shouzhong, hearing this, was quite surprised.
Yan Changqing’s expression grew somber, twisting open the stopper of his wine jug and said:
"Because of so special circumstances with the Asura people, she passed away soon after giving birth.
And my daughter, who also carries Asura blood, might follow her mother’s path if she ever has children, which is what I am most worried about.
Now that the Asura Queen has appeared, perhaps only she can restore my daughter to normal.
But right now, many clues are still unconfird, so I can only verify them one by one. What others have told may not be true, but it’s not necessarily false either."
The last words of Yan Changqing were unclear to Jiang Shouzhong.
However, he could roughly guess that Yan Changqing already had so clues about his daughter, just not very certain.
And he also wanted to find the Asura Queen to save his daughter.
"Master, don’t worry, I will definitely help you find your daughter," Jiang Shouzhong said solemnly.
Yan Changqing smiled, lightly patting Jiang Shouzhong’s shoulder, joking, "You cheeky boy, if my daughter really is rescued, I’ll take you as my son-in-law."
Jiang Shouzhong jumped, waving his hands repeatedly, "Forget it, forget it, I already have enough won around ."
Of course, Comrade Jiang had his motives.
Yan Changqing looked plain, his daughter probably wasn’t much to look at either; it was better to decline beforehand.
Speaking of son-in-laws, Jiang Shouzhong suddenly slapped his head, "Master, coincidentally you’re in the Capital, let share so joyful news, your disciple is about to get married."
"Oh, which young lady has fallen into the pit, Xia He, the young lady?"
Yan Changqing laughed.
Jiang Shouzhong shook his head, "It’s Ran Qingchen, uh... although we were husband and wife before, she plans to reorganize the wedding. Master, you’ll act as my elder then."
Honestly, he had considered inviting Master Luoxue.
But then, thinking it over, that was Jiang Yi’s master, not appropriate to invite.
Right now, it was Jiang Mo getting married.
When Jiang Yi marries another woman later, allowing Master Luoxue to play the elder wouldn’t be a bad idea.
"Jiang Wan’s daughter, huh,"
Yan Changqing was sowhat surprised, then nodded his head in satisfaction,
"You lucky lad, I’ve heard of that girl, naturally gifted, she might well beco a Sword Dao master in the future, too bad I’ve never t her."
Jiang Shouzhong leaned in, earnestly smiling,
"Master, Qingchen also admires you a lot, now that she’s officially becoming your son’s wife, why not also give her so guidance in swordsmanship."
Yan Changqing, amused, pointed a finger in the air at Jiang Shouzhong, "You clever boy, and if you have a child later, will I have to make a special trip to teach your child too?"
"That’s exactly my intention, Master,"
Jiang Shouzhong put on his thick-skinned face.
Joking aside, this was the top swordsmaster in the world, managing to snag even a bit of his attention was a great gain.
"Hmph, with all that scheming, you’d better spend more ti practicing swordsmanship; with the Taoist River Map, why worry about not becoming the top in the world? You lazy boy, all you know is how to slack off,"
Yan Changqing scolded with a smile.
Inhaling the fragrance of the wine, he then murmured regretfully, "Even if I wanted to teach, I won’t live to see that day."
As the three of them left Zhang Yunwu’s house, Jiang Shouzhong securely locked up the house again.
Yan Changqing, looking at Er Liang, who was walking ahead unwilling to engage him, softly said:
"I can attend the wedding, play your elder, but try to set the date sooner, within three to five days if possible, otherwise, I won’t be able to make ti,"
