Jiang Ning's Carriage (Still Owing Two)

"What do you mean?" Mo Duanfeng asked, puzzled.

"Chu Yutian might still be alive."

Li Weiyi then recounted the assassination attempt on Chiming Holy City.

Mo Duanfeng suddenly stood up, reacting strongly. After staring at Li Weiyi for a moment, he asked, "How many people have you told this to?"

"I'll only be with you," Li Weiyi said.

"Very good!"

Mo Duanfeng immediately sat back down on the small chair and explained, "You know me; I value my reputation as much as my life. If Chu Yutian were still alive, and I were in the capital, enjoying all the glory that came from killing him, I would never be able to save face again!"

He said this while slapping his face.

Li Weiyi was both amused and exasperated.

"I'm not kidding you anymore!"

Mo Duanfeng said solemnly, "Given Chu Yutian's personality, if he survives, he will likely go into hiding. And just like the assassination attempt in Chiming Holy City, he will deliver a fatal blow when we least expect it. He has most likely already arrived in Carefree Capital."

"Everyone in the Lesser Yang Division is in great danger."

"We must lure him out and eliminate him, for the sake of our reputation and for the sake of Lesser Yang Division."

"Stop eating this lousy noodle soup, I'll take you to a feast of a hundred families! We need to have a grand battle, ten battles, fighting our way to the peak of the Fourth Realm. Otherwise, once Gu Zhenxiang breaks through first, we'll have no chance to defeat him before New Year's Eve."

"Splash!"

Mo Duanfeng swept his arm, knocking the two soup bowls to the ground, where they shattered into pieces.

The middle-aged couple who ran the noodle stall rushed out together.

"I'll pay, here you go."

Mo Duanfeng pulled Li Weiyi along and strode out of the alley, throwing out a packet of Spring Coin at the same time.

"No one has ever lifted my bowl before, Lao Mo. If you don't bring me all the delicacies today and let me eat my fill, I'll settle this score with you sooner or later!" Li Weiyi said.

Mo Duanfeng laughed loudly, " In the Saints Learning Sea, a hundred schools of thought contend. Tonight, Meng Quyi is hosting a banquet for masters from a hundred schools of thought. If we hurry over now, we'll make it in time."

Li Weiyi immediately understood his intention. "You want to challenge Meng Quyi?"

"Of course we should challenge him. His odds are lower than mine at the Fate Gambling House. Why should we?" Mo Duanfeng said.

Li Weiyi said, "Of course, it's because he cultivated the thirty-six chapters of the <Earth Book> and reached the Heaven and Earth Freedom Realm."

The two stopped a car driven by a car dealership. After getting on, Mo Duanfeng gave a place name.

The vehicle set off and quickly flew into the air along the array cloud bridge.

Inside the car, Mo Duanfeng's expression was solemn. "The few of us who went to the Ancient Kingdom of the Years Ruin had difficulty concealing our cultivation levels. Almost all of us relied on extraordinary treasures to raise our cultivation to the limit of the mid-stage of the Fourth Realm at the fastest speed."

"That final step of mastery is incredibly difficult. On the way from the Holy Capital, I clashed with seniors at the fifth and Sixth Realm every day. No matter how much they pressured me, I made no progress because I knew perfectly well that they would definitely hold back at some point."

"Time is too short. We need drastic measures; we need to fully unleash our momentum and fighting spirit. Even knowing that revealing our identities might be dangerous, we must fight for it. Because you can hide before the new year, but you can't hide after."

"Let's take this opportunity to lure Chu Yutian out as well!"

Li Weiyi deeply understood the importance of breaking through to the Peak Third Realm: "This time, I agree with your point of view, because I have no way out."

Only by reaching his peak as soon as possible can he once again retreat into the Blood Mud Space, head to the Sea of Souls, and use the power there to quickly find the fourth Longevity Lock.

Once the struggle for immortality begins, the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish can no longer be easily activated.

Of the eight names Shen Jian confessed to, two were from the Saints Learning Sea. Perhaps there will be an opportunity to obtain two more sets of Blood Butcher Demonic Armor.

Saints Learning Sea is one of the six large habitats.

The sage "Qingyun" is one of the most powerful beings in Yingzhou in the last 100,000 years. Even Yu Jia, who has become an immortal in Southern Yingzhou, is far inferior to him. The Years Ruin Empress had the opportunity to be on par with him, but it became a regret.

The Qing Family had long since declined; otherwise, the Seventy-two Pages of the "Book of the Earth" would not have been scattered throughout the world.

Today, the leading school of thought among all schools of thought in the study of the Saints Learning Sea is the "Meng family".

The carriage entered the eastern part of the city before finally landing back on the ground from the array cloud bridge.

The eastern part of the city follows the "wood element" layout of Carefree Capital, resembling a primeval forest, teeming with life, and filled with the fragrance of plants and the moist air.

Clang! Clang...

The wheels are turning.

As dusk fell, many plants emitted a faint glow.

Sitting in the car, looking out along the damp stone road, you can see shops such as Pill Cauldron Ge Garden, Jing Yao Cao Tang, and Mu Shou Yuan Yuan, as well as ancient temples with stone walls, white pagodas and treehouses. Jungles and cities coexist here.

The place where Saints Learning Sea Hai (a school of thought) gathered was "Meng Qingyuan," an enterprise under the Mengqing Chamber of Commerce, which was jointly established by the Meng and Qing Family.

From the outside, the white walls stretch as far as the eye can see, giving an idea of how spacious the courtyard is inside.

The two Green Sandalwood Door opened, revealing a lit lamp inside, from which came the elegant sounds of traditional string and wind instruments.

Many young cultivators from the Longevity Realm of the Hundred Schools have already arrived. The streets are filled with all kinds of vehicles, and some are also walking in twos and threes, all dressed in Confucian robes.

Li Weiyi sat in the car, looking towards the gate. "It seems that all the martial artists who aren't from the Saints Learning Sea are being kept outside. So, are they going to just fight their way in, or can your Sacred Dynasty's top scholar just rely on his looks to freeload off this feast?"

Mo Duanfeng laughed, "Your face, Stored Son of Heaven's Dao Law Successor, is also extremely precious. But if the two of us dare to walk over, we'll definitely be attacked by the mob. Forget about getting a meal; we'll probably only get punches and swords."

"I do have some grudges with several families in the Saints Learning Sea, but what is your reason?" Li Weiyi asked.

Mo Duanfeng sighed, "Because I've been cursing Meng Quyi for five days straight in order to force him to show himself. Do you think it's easy to challenge those people ahead of me? Finding them is difficult enough. I still don't know where Gu Zhenxiang Shan Xianzhi hiding. Now I can understand those talented people who want to challenge me... I'll go and kidnap one of them!"

"Wait a minute!"

Through the gaps in the branches and leaves, Li Weiyi saw a silver carriage pulled by a phoenix descend from the arrayed cloud bridge in mid-air. He then darted away from the carriage.

The phoenix is magnificent, with feathers that are a mix of blue and purple.

It landed on the ground first, followed by the wheels of the silver-framed carriage, which gently touched the ground, enveloped in clouds, and moved forward steadily and slowly.

The driver was Zhuang Yue.

She wore soft armor, long trousers, and a martial arts outfit, her hair tied up in a bun. She sat near the car door, her face always bearing an aloof and haughty expression.

In terms of figure and appearance, Zhuang Yue is actually top-notch, but since she's always by Jiang Ning's side, who would notice her?

Li Weiyi appeared in front of the phoenix and used his mental power to force it to lie prostrate on the ground.

"How dare you..."

Zhuang Yue had just shouted angrily when she saw the person's face clearly. Her cold eyes immediately turned into panic, and she involuntarily turned to look into the car.

Li Weiyi appeared beside her again in a flash. "Move aside, I need to say a few words to your young lady."

Zhuang Yue shook her head and reached out to block the car door. "No one can get in the car without Miss's permission. Can't we talk about it outside?"

"Don't forget, Grandpa Zhuang entrusted you to me, to make you listen to me."

Li Weiyi pulled Zhuang Yue out of the car. After a slight hesitation, seeing that there was no force to stop him inside, he lifted the curtain and climbed in. A fresh and faint fragrance wafted into his nostrils, making him feel incredibly comfortable.

Jiang Ning, wearing a veil, looked like Fairy Yu, ethereal and beautiful. She sat at the top of the car, with a bright red flower mark between her brows. Her breathtakingly beautiful eyes were not looking at Li Weiyi, but gazing out the window.

Her long dress spread out in the car like waves, her delicate hands were long and slender like jade, so tender that they seemed to hold water. Her chest had a full curve, and her slender neck not only added to her temperament, but also gave her a subtle and restrained sexiness.

She sat there, yet there was a strange feeling that the entire world had changed, as if it had transformed into a miniature Immortal Realm.

"You didn't stop me, which means I can get in the car." Li Weiyi sat down to her left, looking at her profile, which looked like it had been carefully drawn with a pen, and his thoughts drifted back to when the two first met in Lizhou.

Jiang Ning said, "There always has to be a result; we can't keep running away. What are you trying to say?"

Li Weiyi quickly adjusted her mindset. "I want to know, what is your relationship with Rice Mother?"

"You've finally asked that question," Jiang Ning sighed softly.

Outside the car, Mo Duanfeng's voice rang out. "I'm Li Weiyi's friend, we came together. Just call me Xiao Mo. Are you also going to Meng Qingyuan for the Hundred Schools Gathering of the Saints Learning Sea? Who invited us? We were invited by Meng Quyi."

"Impossible! He killed Meng Hualong, the number one prodigy of the Meng Family Cycle years. How could Meng Quyi possibly invite him? Who exactly are you?" Zhuang Yue drew her sword directly.

The next moment, Zhuang Yue, along with her sword, was enveloped in Mo Duanfeng's magical energy and sent into the car.

Her cultivation was sealed, rendering her unable to move.

Mo Duanfeng sat outside the car door.

With a soft cry from a phoenix, the carriage slowly drove towards Meng Qingyuan.

Jiang Ning flicked a finger, releasing the seal on Zhuang Yue's body.

Zhuang Yue stood up, drew her sword, and was about to stab Mo Duanfeng in the back.

"He is the New Top Scholar imperial examination in the Sacred Dynasty; you can't hurt him," Jiang Ning said calmly.

Zhuang Yue thrust her sword twice, but it was blocked by Mo Duanfeng's protective aura, as if she had struck divine iron. She stomped her foot in anger and looked at Li Weiyi: "You, a top scholar and a Dao Law Successor, dare to bully two weak women like us?"

"That's not true. Dao Palace is no weak woman." Mo Duanfeng's voice came from outside.

Li Weiyi released Four-colored Spiritual Light, enveloping the space inside the carriage, and looked at Jiang Ning again. "You haven't answered my question yet."

"How am I supposed to answer you? The Yin Shi Zhong Dao has killed countless people in the Lingxiao Shengjing. Across several states, the dead are scattered everywhere, and mountains of bones lie in ruins. How am I supposed to answer that? I don't even know how to answer myself."

Jiang Ning didn't look into Li Weiyi's eyes. Her gaze seemed devoid of any emotion, possessing a profound depth, yet also as if concealing countless pains, like that of a weak and helpless drowning person.

Li Weiyi thought of Jiang Ning, who had traveled to Lizhou to seek out talented people and was full of perseverance and ideals in order to save the world, and immediately understood her current pain.

The Corpse Planting Dao became the most important dividing line in her life, forcibly twisting her into another person. No wonder she said in the Ancient Kingdom of the Years Ruin that the past is gone forever.

The phoenix-shaped carriage arrived outside Meng Qingyuan.

"Who goes there? Meng Qingyuan does not receive guests tonight." The guard's cold voice rang out.

Mo Duanfeng said in a deep voice, "Didn't you see that this is the chassis of the Dao Palace lineage?"
