Unparalleled Makes Her Own Choice
"Oh, senior sister!"
Watching Jiang Liyue straight down, Lin Ting felt somewhat helpless, but there was nothing he could do! This was one of the purposes of their visit, and they still had to accomplish it.
"Jing Zhonglai, Senior Sister Li Yue has already gone to see Unparalleled. The rest is up to you. This child should be a disciple of my Dao Sect."
Inside an elegant garden in the city, Jing Zhonglai, who was still sitting quietly in his room, suddenly heard a voice in his ear. It was the voice transmission of the Old Ancestor Li Luo. Upon hearing the voice, Jing Zhonglai immediately opened his eyes.
After listening, Jing Zhonglai and Liluo had the same expression: helplessness. At the same time, he felt more frustrated than Liluo, a frustration that he couldn't suppress even after so many years of cultivating his mind!
Old Ancestor Liyue sought out Ancestor Li Luo, who then shifted the blame to him.
So who did he contact?
He always said being a sect leader wasn't easy!
Jing Zhonglai the dignified sect leader of the Xuantian Dao Sect, Jing Zhonglai, looked somewhat aggrieved at this moment, with unspeakable suffering and utter helplessness. He could only endure it a little longer!
This sect leader position expires in ten years. By then, even a dog wouldn't want to be the sect leader anymore, no matter how much the Master and the patriarch beg.
Unaware of what the Jing Zhonglai in his mind, Lin Ting had no time to care about such things. Looking at Jiang Liyue's beaming face below, he could only say, "Take care of it; it's all for the sake of the Dao Sect."
The matter with this senior sister is almost resolved, but what about him?
Thinking about how he still had no clue about the task he was assigned, even Lin Ting, whose cultivation had reached the late stage of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, felt a headache coming on. It was a feeling that came from the bottom of his heart.
And so Lin Ting stood there in the air, his mind blank, lost in thought, occasionally glancing down at Jiang Liyue.
Unbeknownst to Lin Ting, there was someone else quietly watching everything from behind him.
Looking at the two from the Xuantian Dao Sect, and also at Unparalleled, he did not interfere in any of this, but simply watched the situation unfold quietly.
Behind Lin Ting, in the void, Yuan Tiangang stood motionless, dressed in a black martial arts outfit with flowing sleeves, wearing a bamboo hat, and his eyes, visible beneath the mask, seemed to gaze into an abyss.
Jiang Liyue didn't notice him, nor did Lin Ting; no one knew that a Heavenly Being Realm expert would be standing here.
Yuan Tiangang simply watched, listened, and observed the development of the situation. He would not interfere with Unparalleled's choice; it was Unparalleled's own path, and it was also what his Your Highness had instructed him to do—to let Unparalleled choose for herself.
As early as when Jiang Liyue arrived, Yuan Tiangang had already sensed the probing of his divine sense. This True Person Liyue's focus had always been on Unparalleled. It could be said that since arriving in Cangshui, this guy had been spying on Unparalleled.
Unparalleled possesses Innate Sword Body, and Chu Xuanao naturally knows the unparalleled martial arts of the Xuantian Dao Sect: the Xuantian Nine Swords, the Yin Yang Lightning Method, and the Myriad Dao Record —that's all.
With Jiang Liyue watching, Chu Xuanao easily guessed their purpose. In fact, he didn't even need to guess; the moment Yuan Tiangang told him, Chu Xuanao instantly realized it—it was all obvious.
Chu Xuanao's thoughts were simple: Unparalleled could choose for herself whether to stay or not. He had nothing else to do anyway, so he would spend his free time watching Unparalleled practice swordsmanship, hone her skills through battles, or chat with others and enjoy drinks in a private room.
Well, watching Unparalleled fight, he himself has learned how to fight. If Unparalleled wants to go, that's fine too. He's not worried that Unparalleled will betray him, because that's impossible.
It could be said that Chu Xuanao's only concern was Unparalleled's safety. However, if she were to become Jiang Liyue's disciple, then there would be no need to worry about that. It was all Unparalleled's own choice.
Yuan Tiangang was simply watching over things and protecting Unparalleled. As long as she wasn't directly kidnapped or forced, and it was Unparalleled's own choice, then there was nothing to worry about.
Looking down at the two people clashing with sword energy, Yuan Tiangang felt that Unparalleled might have already made a choice.
On April 10th, in Cangshui City, along the Cang River, countless figures stood on the riverbank, stretching as far as the eye could see.
Everyone stood there gazing into the distance, their expressions ranging from excitement and joy to hearty laughter, like Ling Yan and Xiao Chengfeng.
Gazing at the vast, turbulent river stretching for thousands of feet in the distance, and listening to the rushing water, Ling Yan couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"Finally back, and it's the same scene again. This Land of Cangshui hasn't changed, and neither has the Cang River!"
More than a hundred years ago, Battle of Cangshui, Ling Yan stood in the same spot, fighting against the Great Feng. But things are different now.
The battle is over, the Cangshui have been calmed, and we have won a great victory. Now, standing on the banks of the Cangshui, the heavy and oppressive atmosphere of that time is gone; there is only joy.
"Old Ling, you can't say that. You can only say that the Great Feng is managing things quite well and has put in a lot of effort. You know, the Great Feng attacked Cangshui back then, and our battlefield was right here on the Cang River."
Gazing at the distant riverbank of the Eastern Border Great Feng, Xiao Chengfeng chimed in with a comment on Ling Yan's words.
Ling Yan, who was standing to the side, nodded in agreement.
During the initial battle, the situation was urgent, and the battlefield of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm was located on the Cang River. The waves rose hundreds of feet high, flooding both banks. It can be said that the banks of the Cang River were almost completely destroyed. After the war, the Great Feng must have put in a lot of effort to restore this place.
They've actually gotten a good deal; the Great Feng Land of Cangshui over the past hundred years.
Just then, a sigh, a pity, and a hint of disappointment in an old voice rang out on the banks of the Cang River.
"What a pity. If it weren't for the upheaval in Cloud Province and the restless actions of the Great Yan, given the current situation in the Great Feng, our Dagan could have directly crossed the Cangshui. But now we can only stand here and watch each other across the river."
"Well!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Xuanao glanced to the side and saw that the speaker was Chu Yinghao, who was standing next to him.
At this moment, Chu Yinghao looked at the Great Feng Eastern Border of Dafeng across the way, his eyes filled with sorrow, and he let out a sigh that seemed to carry endless vicissitudes.
Chu Wensheng and Chu Mo, who were standing to the side, also slowly shook their heads, seemingly regretting missing such a great opportunity.
Looking at the expressions of the three patriarchs, Chu Xuanao couldn't help but complain in his heart, "These two patriarchs, apart from Chu Mo, are really good at acting."
The excuse was so convincing that anyone unaware of the inner workings of the Imperial Clan would easily be fooled.
Chu Xuanao understood perfectly well what the Old Ancestor Yinghao meant by speaking in public; he was directly telling him to give up on the idea of fighting.
Of course, this was also Chu Xuanao's own idea, and there really wouldn't be any fighting at the moment. Firstly, after two consecutive major battles, You Province was already exhausted, and it was time to rest.
Secondly, he had done everything he wanted to do and achieved his goals. Just the fact that these two patriarchs came to him yesterday with an Imperial Decree, personally urging him to stop the war, showed that the matter had already exceeded the control of the Imperial Clan.
His plan was effective for a short time; once the opportunity arose, he could give the Imperial Clan more responsibilities.
For now, we've stopped the fighting and are recuperating. Even if we were to fight again, it would have to wait for some time. We still need to digest what we've gained in the Xuanshan Plain and Land of Cangshui.
Thinking of this, Chu Xuanao looked at the river, which was over a thousand feet wide, and at the horizon where the sea and sky met on the opposite side, where the Eastern Border shore of the Great Feng was faintly visible. He felt a little regretful.
"Yes! What a pity. If it weren't for the changes in Cloud Province, given the current battle situation, I would really like to go and take a look!"
"Let's see the lives of the people in the Eastern Border of Great Feng, and the former glory of the Qilian Mountain Range! Let's also visit the heroes Martial World our Dagan in the past."
