138: Chapter 14: Watch the Xuanshui Cave Heaven for _3
Jiang Qihu suddenly stopped in his tracks, his teeth clenched, his body trembling, and his fists shaking…
He had taken every word of Yuan Jimo’s mockery to heart earlier.
The chaos in Qing State had finally settled into peace.
He was certainly happy.
But it was not happiness for his ntor, but for the people of Qing State, for the future of Da Chu.
As a disciple of the library, he was well aware that his master was burning his life force in his tireless efforts—
Cultivation, cultivation, seeking longevity.
Destiny, destiny, running counter to the path.
“Master, have you forgotten how you usually teach ?”
The clumsy Qihu said with grievance, “You taught
to always stand tall in the Imperial City, not to lose the face of the Jiang Family or the library!
If bullied, never endure it, if others push you an inch, you push back three feet!”
Chen Jingxuan was struck dumb.
“But you just said…
A gentleman does not show anger, where is the sense in that?”
Jiang Qihu spoke with difficulty, feeling aggrieved.
A gentleman does not show anger.
On reflection, though it was the first ti he heard it from his master, he seed to have heard it from others before.
“A gentleman…
shows no anger unless provoked.”
Chen Jingxuan sighed lightly, “That was sothing Mr.
Xie once said.”
The Little National Master looked at the campfire burning beside him, which after a whole day had dwindled to a few embers.
Fortunately, it had not yet burned out; with so more firewood, it could blaze vigorously again.
Without any hesitation.
He threw the decree paper and so useless drafts into it.
With a sizzle, the flas grew larger.
Jiang Qihu stood still, reminded by his master, he then recalled.
Indeed, it was sothing Xie Xuanyi had once said.
A gentleman shows no anger unless provoked, and once angry…
Back then, Xie Xuanyi had only spoken halfway before he scoffed, drew his sword, and went out to kill.
That day, many people in Qing State died.
Upon further reflection, his own master seed to have never suffered any loss either.
A man who could befriend Xie Xuanyi, teaching principles like “if soone pushes you an inch, you push back three feet”…
How could he be a mild-tempered good samaritan?
“Yuan Jimo brought this decree rely wanting
to provide an ‘answer’ from the Paperman Sect.”
Chen Jingxuan said indifferently, “If they want it, then I’ll give it…
that’s all.”
Jiang Qihu said anxiously, “The chaos in Qing State, you just used the Chi Hun instrunt, is this really wise?”
“Don’t worry, I value my life more than anyone.”
Chen Jingxuan lowered his eyes and smiled, saying, “There are still people waiting for , how can I afford to waste my life recklessly?”
Jiang Qihu stared at his master in confusion.
“Da Sui has opened mountains, you should visit the Sword Palace.”
Chen Jingxuan said slowly, “It has been ten years; you should see your sister…
and also, do so errands for .”
Jiang Qihu took steps, looking back repeatedly, but ultimately accepted the command and left.
Eventually, the library returned to its serene and empty state.
Chen Jingxuan took out the Ruyi Order and poured his Divine Thought into it.
…
…
Monts later, an ink-like shadow slowly congregated within the library; the youth removed his hat, sitting directly across from the Little National Master.
The jade desk was pristine, the tea warm, emitting curling steam.
Though it had only been a month since they last t, the two seed like old friends of many years.
No need for words when eting, just a glance sufficed.
“Rare, rare.”
Xie Xuanyi unceremoniously picked up the teacup, jesting, “I didn’t expect that after parting in Qing State…
it would be you who would use this Ruyi Order first.”
After the upheaval in Qing State ended.
Xie Xuanyi and Chen Jingxuan had not contacted each other again.
This Ruyi Order had thus returned to tranquility…
Especially precious, Xie Xuanyi treasured it as if it were his own life, hidden and cherished.
For him, unless there was an insurmountable issue, he would absolutely not contact the library.
As for Chen Jingxuan, positioned high in Da Chu, holding countless resources, naturally the sa was true.
When the Ruyi Order sounded, Xie Xuanyi knew right away.
The Little National Master was in trouble.
“There’s a problem.”
Chen Jingxuan said with a smile, “…only you can help .”
“But say no more.”
Xie Xuanyi waved his hand casually.
Chen Jingxuan got straight to the point, “You previously ntioned, in Beihai Ling, that you had dealings with the Paperman Sect…”
“Does the Imperial City need the records of the Paperman Sect?”
Xie Xuanyi directly addressed Chen Jingxuan’s intention; he was always straightforward, disliking beating around the bush.
In fact, after contacting Fangyuan Square in Lingqu City.
He had vaguely guessed so indications.
He, under the guise of the “Paperman Sect,” had slain Jin Yuan and Chi Hun of Xuanshui Cave Heaven…
partly to avenge the old grudge from North Sea, and partly to stir so trouble in South Border.
Evil Cultivators fighting among themselves, why not take pleasure in it?
But he had not expected that the Paperman Sect would openly admit to this act, which then led the entire Yin Mountain to declare war!
This so-called “trouble” was far beyond Xie Xuanyi’s expectations, and from the looks of it, it was likely to escalate.
The reason Yin Mountain declared war was not simply because the deaths of Jin Yuan and Chi Hun stung the White Ghost.
The truth behind it wasn’t hard to guess.
Yin Mountain had the backing of a much larger force.
There was only one possibility.
That was the Great Chu Imperial City.
“Mr.
Xie is indeed ‘sharp-sighted’.”
Chen Jingxuan smiled faintly, “Indeed…
this record is needed by the Imperial City.”
What does a profound connection entail?
With just a few words from Chen Jingxuan, Xie Xuanyi roughly understood the reasons and consequences of why the Little National Master had used the order.
Over the years.
The Three Great Sects were so oppressed by the Paperman Sect that they couldn’t even lift their heads, yet they couldn’t find the Sect’s main entrance or even see what the Daoist Master looked like.
Now that a war was looming, they naturally needed so intelligence.
If the Imperial City was stating its support, they at least had to show so sincerity…
But how precious is the fate of the Monitor of Heaven?
Chen Jingxuan valued his life, and he also knew, the so-called support from the Imperial City was nothing more than a perfunctory asure.
