Chapter 528 Nie Qing and Jian Xin
Chapter 528 Nie Qing and Jian Xin
Ye Kang immediately recognized the sword energy that Master Nie Qing had produced as belonging to Jian Xin!
"Real person, could it be Jian Xin too?!"
He stared in disbelief, dumbfounded.
The main reason is that Jian Xin's identity is too special.
He is the undisputed strongest genius in the Coral Islands and the undisputed successor of the Wuji Sword Sect.
How could such a peerless genius have any connection with Chongtian Temple!
Master Nie Qing smiled faintly.
"When we first met in the Buddhist Kingdom, I already told you that before you, there were more than one person who ventured out to sea. But she was indeed an exception. I didn't want her to go, but after the Wuji Ancestor pleaded with me several times, I went along with it."
"Did Ancestor Wuji plead on his own initiative?"
Ye Kang was even more confused.
That top expert who cleaved Sword Mountain Island in two with a single sword actually asked Jian Xin to go to the outer sea.
Master Nie Qing's gaze was as steady as the bright moon, revealing a faint look of reminiscence.
"There's something I can tell you. Jianxin is my daughter."
"what!!!"
Ye Kang was truly stunned this time, and almost couldn't help but stand up.
Master Nie Qing had anticipated his reaction and continued, "When Jian Xin was born, she possessed an innate, clear sword heart, which is why I named her Jian Xin. In terms of sword talent, she is unique."
"The Wuji Ancestor practiced swordsmanship all his life. He wanted a genius like this more than anyone else to inherit his mantle and learn his lifelong swordsmanship. So, on the third day after Jian Xin was born, he came to find her."
Ye Kang listened, swallowing hard.
"In other words, Ancestor Wuji was well aware of Jian Xin's identity, but in order to pass on his mantle, he still chose to take her as his disciple?"
"That's one way to put it, but Jian Xin isn't my mole. She would never do such a thing. The only thing I asked her to do was to keep an eye on you and lend you a hand if necessary."
At this point, Ye Kang suddenly realized what was going on.
No wonder.
The first time she met Jian Xin, she didn't hesitate to help him kill someone.
At the Fishing for Giant Turtle Tournament, he even took the initiative to team up with himself.
It turns out that everything was foreshadowed, and the reason she did this was because of Master Nie Qing's instruction.
Ye Kang's expression turned solemn, and he sighed, "So even the real person knows about my hidden identity."
"Of course, Wang Yintai is you, Liu Ci is you, but I didn't expect you to grow so quickly. Even if Tianji is optimistic about you, it is still beyond my expectations."
"Heavenly secrets?"
“I am skilled in divination and have once cast a divination for you. The divination result was only four words: ‘A true dragon emerges from the abyss.’”
Master Nie Qing stared calmly into Ye Kang's eyes, saying nothing more.
But Ye Kang fell into deep thought.
This woman is so scary.
However, it's not entirely incomprehensible; after all, if he didn't have something worth investing in, she wouldn't have taken such good care of him.
After a long silence, Ye Kang finally asked, "What do you plan to do with the woman who was arrested with me?"
Master Nie Qing was somewhat taken aback, seemingly not expecting him to ask such a question.
This is quite different from the ruthless and cold-blooded executioner I remembered.
But after only a moment of surprise, she said, "Just like you, someone will naturally go to see him."
"Who?"
"secret."
"How am I supposed to get back?"
"Tianya Haige will send you back."
"What do you need me to do?"
“Doing nothing means you don’t need to participate in the war.”
"understood."
Ye Kang breathed a sigh of relief.
At least they didn't ask me to go back undercover; they probably just didn't want me to mess things up and ruin some of their plans.
Master Nie Qing stood up and said, "I have a few martial arts techniques here. If you need them, I can give them to you."
Ye Kang shook his head: "Don't bite off more than you can chew. Thank you, Master."
This wasn't just polite talk; his comprehension was limited. He still needed to improve the Demon Pillar's aptitude, and even if he learned more Grandmaster martial arts, it wouldn't significantly enhance his abilities.
Master Nie Qing nodded, turned and left without any hesitation.
Ye Kang watched the other person disappear into the night, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
They're all cunning old foxes, each one more enigmatic than the last.
Ye Kang had no idea what they were up to or what their purpose was, but he was helplessly drawn into it.
After a moment, he sighed.
As I always say, don't dwell on things, and never place your hopes on others; only your own strength is real.
Midnight passed.
At dawn, Wu Shengnan returned to the Windless Cave and brought Ye Kang out.
Yao Jingting was also standing nearby, looking at Ye Kang with a somewhat complicated expression.
Clearly, the person who saw her last night was no ordinary person either.
Ye Kang didn't want to make wild guesses, so he simply nodded at her.
Wu Shengnan said, "You two, return to Jifeng Island the way you came, and pretend nothing happened."
After saying this, she left without caring whether the two of them understood or not.
Ye Kang said, "How about that? I told you, we won't die."
Yao Jingting gritted her teeth and said, "Who went to see you last night!"
"Even if I asked you, you wouldn't tell me, would you?"
"Of course... but I still can't help but ask you, you're much more mysterious than I imagined."
"Okay, go back."
Without saying much, the two flew away from Tianya Haige, and no one noticed them on the way.
Half a day later, the two flew back to Extreme Wind Island.
At this moment, the island was still peaceful, but the chilling atmosphere still made people feel uneasy.
The Church of Saints had been completely destroyed. The leader of the Church of Saints sat on the ruins, staring at the two with venomous eyes.
He still had injuries that hadn't healed, and his breathing was very erratic.
But given their cultivation levels, all the martial artists on the entire Extreme Wind Island remained silent, trembling with fear, and dared not utter a sound.
Clearly, starting yesterday, Extreme Wind Island has become a dead end where one can only enter and not leave.
Ye Kang ignored the Holy Immortal Sect Leader's gaze and walked straight into the corner of the market street.
The distillery with the inscription "Brewed by Storms" had closed down, but Ye Kang knew that the people inside were still there.
He knocked on the door and said, "Shopkeeper, I've gotten the wine back for you. Could you please come out and get it?"
A moment later, the distillery owner cautiously opened the door and looked at Ye Kang in horror.
He will probably never forget that face.
This is the guy who asked for some wine yesterday, and immediately went to fight the Holy Immortal Cult Leader, and even won!
This guy is definitely not a Four Pillars cultivator, but a powerful master who has been hiding his true strength!
He shook his head frantically, saying, "I don't want it anymore, you can have it all."
Ye Kang did not reply, but simply placed all the wine jars at the entrance.
"We agreed to only take the three best jars, please help me choose."
Although Ye Kang comes from a family of winemakers, he really doesn't know much about spirit wine.
The shopkeeper was somewhat taken aback: "Are you serious?"
"real."
"it is good!"
The shopkeeper seemed to have made a decision, and immediately selected the three best jars, handing over a jade slip at the same time.
"I was originally a rogue cultivator, with no disciples or children, all alone. Now my life and death are out of my own hands. Please keep this for me!"
After saying that, he solemnly handed over a jade slip.
