Wow, this pretty lady is amazing!
Inside the inn, the young girl, who was at the Acquired Third Layer, couldn't help but clap and cheer when she saw Zixia send someone flying out of the window with a single move.
The square-faced old man next to him changed his expression, as if he was about to say something, when he saw Zixia looking over.
"The little girl is also very pretty and cute!" Zixia said to the little girl with a smile.
"Hehe, not as pretty as my older sister!"
The little girl wasn't shy at all and ran right up to Zixia's side.
She tilted her cute little head and asked, "Sister, what kind of Kung Fu Hustle are you using? Can I learn it?"
" Feiyan, don't be silly. Asking about martial arts is a major taboo in the Jianghu. Have you forgotten what your grandfather taught you?" At this moment, the square-faced old man walked over helplessly.
She carefully clasped her hands in a fist salute to Ling Yi and Zixia Fist Dao, "I apologize, my granddaughter is young and doesn't know any better. I hope you two won't take offense."
Ling Yi shook his head and said, "It's alright!"
Ling Yi could tell that Zixia really liked this little girl.
Moreover, this was the first time Ling Yi had witnessed Changes in Zixia's emotions.
From initially disliking Tian Boguang to now liking him.
Clearly, the Clone possesses its own consciousness and emotions, rather than being a mere puppet.
Furthermore, because Ling Yi had absolute control over his Clone, able to bring them to life or death at will, he never regarded them as real people.
Even though Ling Yi knew they all had independent consciousness.
However, Ling Yi has always leaned more towards the explanation of an intelligent program.
It seems that my understanding of Clone was ultimately somewhat one-sided.
"Young master, this girl is destined to be with me. May I take her as my disciple?" At this moment, Zixia looked at Ling Yi expectantly and asked.
Ling Yi hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Is it fate? If you like it, then take it!"
Ling Yi had already guessed the identities of the young girl and the old man.
Qu Yang and Qu Feiyan.
Both of them met tragic ends in the original storyline.
After Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng finished playing the final song of "The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Proud Wanderer," they committed suicide by severing their own Heart Vein, leaving everyone sighing with regret.
Qu Feiyan, on the other hand, was killed by Fei Bin of the Mount Song Sect, and her ending was rather tragic.
In the original storyline, he barely appeared more than a few times before his character's story ended.
If it were according to Ling Yi's original plan, he would never want to have too much interaction with Qu Feiyan and Qu Yang.
These two have special identities and cause too much trouble. Ling Yi is just here to watch the show, not to get involved.
But when Zixia uttered the words "destined to meet," Ling Yi was quite surprised.
He was quite curious about what exactly this "fate" meant, and how Zixia had determined it.
"Sister, can I really become your apprentice?" Qu Feiyan asked in surprise.
"Of course!"
"Grandpa, may I become my sister's apprentice?"
Qu Yang wanted to say something, but ultimately didn't.
He knew very well that he and Liu Zhengfeng's affair couldn't be kept secret for long; Liu Zhengfeng thought that retiring from the criminal life would solve everything.
But in reality, it's not that simple.
Once their information is exposed, neither the righteous nor the demonic paths will likely let them off the hook.
If Qu Feiyan could become the disciple of this mysterious and powerful woman, it would be a good choice.
The reason for their many worries is simply because they don't know Ling Yi and Zixia's background.
Zixia, however, didn't care about Qu Yang's attitude at all.
"My name is Zixia. What's your name?" Zixia asked Qu Feiyan.
" The Final Master, my name is Qu Feiyan, and this is my grandfather, Qu Yang!" As Qu Feiyan introduced her grandfather's name, her eyes darted around, carefully watching Zixia.
She also secretly glanced at Ling Yi.
Seeing that neither of them reacted much, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Her subtle expressions seemed well-intentioned, but she was just a young girl; how could she possibly hide them all?
Qu Yang was also observing Zixia and Ling Yi.
Zixia didn't pay him a second glance from beginning to end, but judging from her expression, she really liked Feiyan.
Ling Yi, however, maintained a half-smile.
After thinking it over, Qu Yang decided to reveal his identity.
"Miss Zixia, I am Qu Yang, one of the ten elders of the Sun Moon Sect. If people find out that you have taken my granddaughter as your disciple, it will cause you a lot of trouble."
Zixia didn't speak, but looked at Ling Yi.
During this time, these Clone had gathered a lot of intelligence about the martial arts world, so they naturally knew about the Jianghu Sun Moon Holy Cult. She herself didn't care, but she was worried about causing trouble for Ling Yi.
If they didn't know Qu Yang's identity, it wouldn't be a problem, but now they're finding it difficult to make their own decisions.
"It's alright!"
Ling Yi shook his head, indicating that he didn't care.
He just finds it troublesome, not that he's afraid of trouble.
Qu Yang's troubles are nothing more than the Mount Song Sect and the Sun Moon Holy Cult. If they come looking for death, he can use them to upgrade his Clone's level.
I don't even know how my system is configured.
Currently, the level of the Cultivation Technique Clone is stuck at level 9, and the maximum number of Clone is also stuck at 10.
To break through to level 10, you need a lot of living beings' flesh and blood.
Ling Yi had a feeling that when the level of his Cultivation Technique Clone broke through level 10, the system would inevitably Changes.
In other words, the prerequisite for system upgrade is the improvement of the level of the Cultivation Technique Clone.
This means that Ling Yi will inevitably need a large amount of living flesh and blood in the future.
After learning that this was a chaotic and mixed world, Ling Yi felt somewhat apprehensive.
Or rather, a fear of insufficient firepower.
I'll never feel confident unless I'm invincible.
Ling Yi's original idea was to first improve the grade of his Cultivation Technique Clone by absorbing cultivation techniques, thereby increasing his own strength.
At least after reaching the Master, then we should consider upgrading the Cultivation Technique Clone.
"At least I was a Reckless Man in my previous life, but I never expected that after transmigrating, I would learn to think things through carefully."
Ling Yi shook his head and murmured softly.
He then asked Qu Yang, "What are your plans for the future?"
After a moment's hesitation, Qu Yang said, "I plan to retire from the Jianghu."
"Are you with Liu Zhengfeng?" Ling Yi asked.
Qu Yang was stunned for a moment, not expecting that this young man knew about his relationship with Liu Zhengfeng.
But thinking about it, it's not surprising.
Putting aside Ling Yi's strength, this Zixia girl's strength is definitely above the Innate.
"Is the young master a member of the imperial court?" Qu Yang asked tentatively.
Ling Yi shook his head!
"Those are the people of the Greater Jianghu!"
" The Greater Jianghu?" Ling Yi asked, somewhat puzzled. "What does ' Greater Jianghu' mean?"
Qu Yang asked curiously, "Young Master, are you unaware of the terms 'Greater Jianghu' and 'Lesser Jianghu '?"
"I really don't know!"
"Is the young master from outside the Hanming Jianghu?" Qu Yang asked again.
Ling Yi shook his head. Outside the Hanming Jianghu? That's the outermost world; he doesn't even belong to this world.
Seeing Ling Yi shake his head, Qu Yang understood that Ling Yi didn't want to talk about it.
After a moment of contemplation, he said, "In the entire Hanming Jianghu, apart from Shaolin, Wudang Sect, Ming Cult, Emei, and the imperial court, the Innate Realm masters are the elite. You should know this, young master, right?"
Seeing Ling Yi nod, he continued, "The imperial court controls the martial Jianghu, which makes martial arts manuals of Jianghu -Earth Grade or higher extremely rare."
"Otherwise, a mere Bixie Sword Manual wouldn't have caused such a stir in the Jianghu."
"In the hearts of those in the Hanming Jianghu martial arts world), there has always been a saying about the Greater Jianghu' and the Lesser Jianghu,' and we are people in the Lesser Jianghu.'"
"Societies like Wudang Sect, Shaolin, Emei, Ming Cult belong to the Greater Jianghu martial arts world)."
This explanation is truly a complete Great Shift of Heaven and Earth of fortune.
What about the imperial court?
Qu Yang smiled wryly, "As for the imperial court, that's another Jianghu entirely. To be precise, the imperial court is above the Jianghu martial arts, controlling Jianghu with absolute power."
"Who lives, who dies, who is righteous, who is evil—it's all the result of the court's covert manipulation."
"This Hanming Jianghu, besides its intrigue and deceit, has long lost Jianghu essence. If it weren't for the Jianghu Boundary Token, many people in the Hanming Jianghu would probably have left for the Former Song Hanming ago."
Compared to the Hanming Jianghu, the Former Song Jianghu was truly the martial Jianghu for Jianghu people!
" Jianghu Boundary Token? What is that?"
Now, Qu Yang was truly puzzled. How could this person not even know the Jianghu Boundary Token?
"The so-called 'Jianghu Boundary Token ' is said to be a token jointly issued by the courts of various countries, specifically for Jianghu practitioners."
"During peacetime, it is strictly forbidden for members of the Jianghu from different countries to associate with each other."
"This concept of the Jianghu Boundary Token ' is quite interesting!"
Ling Yi thought the more accurate name for this " Jianghu Boundary Token" should be "Story Protection Order."
Strictly prohibiting Jianghu practitioners from traveling between different countries is to minimize the impact on the storylines of each Jianghu world.
Without this Jianghu Boundary Token, putting aside everything else, could the Jianghu of other countries withstand the combined might of the Immortal Martial practitioners from Feng-Yun Nation and the semi-cultivators from Qin-Tang Nation?
"How exactly does this Jianghu Boundary Token operate? You just said 'it is said,' why did you use 'it is said'? Also, what do you mean by 'partial'?"
Qu Yang took out a small plaque from his pocket. It was an ordinary-looking Bronze plaque with " Hanming " written on the front and " Boundary Token " on the back.
Ling Yi took the Boundary Token and examined it, immediately realizing that it was no ordinary Boundary Token.
This is definitely not made of Bronze; in fact, Ling Yi couldn't even tell what material it was.
If it were made of Bronze, Ling Yi could break it with a little force.
But even with Ling Yi's full strength, this thing didn't Changes in the slightest.
You should know that he is currently at the Innate Fifth Layer, with the added benefits of various cultivation techniques.
The strength in his hands is at least a thousand pounds.
"Everyone says this document was issued by the courts of various countries, and the courts have tacitly approved it, but many people have doubts about it."
"It wasn't issued by the imperial court?"
"I wonder who posted this?"
Ling Yi was a little confused. He didn't know who issued it, so where did this Jianghu Boundary Token come from?
"Don't tell me this Jianghu Boundary Token appeared out of thin air!"
To everyone's surprise, Qu Yang nodded and said, "It did indeed appear out of thin air, and only a portion of the Jianghu possesses it; most Jianghu world members do not have this token."
"Moreover, we have no idea when or how this Jianghu Boundary Token appeared."
"Just like my Jianghu Boundary Token, it suddenly appeared five years ago, Feiyan's Jianghu Token appeared two years ago."
Ling Yi seemed lost in thought.
"Those who possess Jianghu Token must be well-known figures in the Jianghu, right?" Ling Yi asked.
"That's true. That's why many people in the Jianghu world regard this Jianghu Boundary Token as a symbol of Jianghu status."
"If the holder of the Jianghu Boundary Token dies, will the Jianghu Boundary Token automatically disappear?"
"Yes!" Qu Yang nodded.
Ling Yi suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. Something was wrong with this Jianghu Boundary Token, and this chaotic Jianghu was just not right either.
