Chapter 854: Chapter 30 24 Hours (14)
“You’re smarter than I imagined.”
A gentle voice of praise ca from the Heavenly Peak.
“Whether you co to the Taoist sect or not, the outco would still be the sa. Even if you stayed in the Imperial City, it wouldn’t take long… we would still et.”
Chong Kan slowly descended.
The large black robe touched the ground, dragging and spreading out.
“I’m not blind.”
Chen Jingxuan said indifferently, “The Taoist sect wants to control the ‘Roundness Instrunt’… I saw this coming ten years ago.”
Ten years ago.
Chen Jingxuan’s greatest opponent was Yan Xie from the Taoist sect.
He knew very well… without the hidden support of the Taoist sect, Yan Xie wouldn’t have obtained the ‘Yin Yang Mirror’.
Ten years is not long, but it’s enough for so truths to co to light. After Yan Xie left the Taoist sect, he plunged into the Imperial City, seemingly silent, but in reality, he was biding his ti waiting for an opportunity… The storm had been brewing, only waiting for a suitable mont.
Everyone in Great Chu calls
the “Little National Master.”
But Ren Shou Palace over there has been delaying the official handover date of the National Master title.
In the Book Discussion Tower’s heritage, Fangyuan Square’s managent, and every qualification, background, and rit that can be discussed…
Chen Jingxuan has achieved the utmost.
The position of National Master belongs to him and no one else.
The reason for the continuous delay.
Is quite simple.
He is not the “National Master” that Ren Shou Palace has in mind as the best.
Behind this storm, stand two figures, one hidden in the Taoist sect, and one in Ren Shou Palace. These two figures had been planning all this for ten years.
“Is that so?”
Great True Master Chong Kan said calmly, “Since you have already seen through it. Then you should know that no matter how you struggle, you have no chance of winning.”
“I never planned to struggle.”
Chen Jingxuan lowered his eyes and smiled, “So things, once you see through them, that’s all there is… Since you want the position of National Master so much, why not just let you have it?”
“Oh?”
Great True Master Chong Kan chuckled lightly.
He was a bit surprised to receive such a calm and peaceful response.
He had thought that Chen Jingxuan would not easily accept the outco of “leaving the Imperial City” and would at least attempt to resist.
“It’s just that I don’t quite understand.”
Chen Jingxuan shook his head self-deprecatingly and asked, “Since you have already chosen to join forces, why make it so troubleso… Ten years ago, wouldn’t it have been simpler to just let Yan Xie win?”
The Holy Empress and Chong Kan stood together.
With such strength, who could oppose?
“Ten years is very short, a blink of an eye, a victory or defeat ans little.”
Chong Kan said indifferently, “So Yan Xie’s loss to you is no big deal. There are many geniuses in this world, so like Master Xuanzhi, don’t need to fight or get involved in worldly disputes, they just need a small piece of land to cultivate to the Yang God, and even continue onward without hesitation… And there are so geniuses who need failure, setbacks, enough anger and resentnt.”
“Yan Xie?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Jingxuan found it quite amusing.
He knew that the Heart Demon of many geniuses in this world was Xie Xuanyi.
But for Yan Xie, his Heart Demon was undoubtedly himself.
It turns out, in Chong Kan’s plan, he played such a role.
“I punished him by making him reflect in the Heart Cage for ten entire years.”
Great True Master Chong Kan said with so regret, “For these ten years, every day and every night, he has been thinking about how to defeat you… Perhaps you should really return to the Imperial City and face him directly.”
“I never considered him a rival.”
Chen Jingxuan was silent for a mont, then spoke in a calm voice.
This sentence sounded like contempt, but Chen Jingxuan’s tone was very flat, without a hint of disdain.
He was rely objectively stating a fact.
In a sense, Chen Jingxuan and Master Xuanzhi are a similar type of genius, his cultivation was never about defeating anyone, and over the years, he had not developed any particular grievances or hatred…
Therefore.
In his eyes, Yan Xie was no different from anyone else.
“…”
Chong Kan’s expression was sowhat complex.
Today’s eting was not quite what he had imagined.
Chen Jingxuan did not fight, did not compete, did not struggle, nor was he furious.
The thods he had prepared, the pressure he had accumulated, seed to suddenly lose all aning.
“Can I take her away now?”
Chen Jingxuan looked towards the direction of the ‘Heart Cage’, where the Thunder Pool still hovered above the head of the woman in the Daoist robe.
“You certainly can.”
Great True Master Chong Kan brushed his sleeve.
The Myriad Phenona Cave Heaven released its suppression, and the Thunder Pool slowly dissipated. Tang Fengshu, who was sitting cross-legged, had a pale complexion and gently closed her eyes… The ‘Heart Cage’ is similar to a type of Gu Technique, after Great True Master Chong Kan pressed the ‘Heart Cage’ into Tang Fengshu’s Divine Sea, this woman Pavilion Master’s Divine Soul sank into eternal darkness.
It can be understood that during this period, Tang Fengshu’s Divine Soul was always asleep.
Chen Jingxuan waved his sleeve lightly.
Countless Golden Lines swept out, transforming into a gentle large hand, supporting the woman’s back and pulling her in front of him.
“Her Divine Soul is now still under the control of the ‘Heart Cage’.”
Chong Kan said indifferently, “After twelve hours, the ‘Heart Cage’ will dissipate on its own.”
This type of Soul Technique is extrely difficult to perform.
And once perford, it’s extrely difficult to undo.
This is the reason why Great True Master Chong Kan didn’t care about Chen Jingxuan taking Tang Fengshu away—
The initiative was still in his hands.
“You have twelve more hours to fulfill your previous promise…”
Great True Master Chong Kan said indifferently, “Once everything is settled and the ‘Heart Cage’ dissipates, Tang Fengshu will naturally be restored. Otherwise, you know well of my thods.”
“Does acting like this, Great True Master, rather diminish the upright reputation of the Taoist sect?”
Chen Jingxuan slowly squatted down, holding the shoulders of the woman in his arms, transmitting a strand of Primordial Energy.
Having endured the pressure of the Thunder Pool for many days and the tornt of the Heart Cage, Tang Fengshu at this mont was very weak…
Chen Jingxuan took off his thin outer garnt and covered her with it.
He lowered his eyes, his expression hidden from view.
“The victor writes history.”
Great True Master Chong Kan shook his head indifferently and said, “In the future, I will naturally be regarded as upright.”
He had to arrange it this way—
After all, Chen Jingxuan was the Master of the Book Tower, the originally designated National Master of Great Chu.
Such an important identity couldn’t just disappear without a trace.
“Very well.”
Chen Jingxuan exhaled a breath of impure air.
Perhaps at this mont in the Imperial City, the long-brewing storm had already arrived.
Chen Jingxuan vaguely guessed what would happen in the next twelve hours… Yan Xie had waited for ten years, plotted for ten years.
The Book Tower’s scandals, the carefully orchestrated slander, would transform into a torrential rain, poured onto himself.
All he had to do was accept, admit.
The final step is… to leave.
“I will leave the Imperial City.”
Chen Jingxuan looked seriously at the Great True Master before him and asked, “But after leaving the Imperial City… I need a place to go.”
“As you wish.”
Chong Kan replied emotionlessly, “Letting you leave the Imperial City is rely giving you a dignified way out. Trust , you wouldn’t want to return… If I were you, I would leave Great Chu with Tang Fengshu.”
