Who is the Stumbling Block

Chapter 31: Who is the Stumbling Block?

"One, two, three!"

Jiang Wan counted to three, and the other party fell to the ground.

She had the Poison Repelling Bead on her, and what's more, it could reflect attacks. This Qi Refining disciple had used a drug when he covered Jiang Wan's mouth. Now, it had reflected back onto himself.

In other words, the drug that was supposed to make Jiang Wan faint had now directly knocked the attacker out. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

It was just that when this person was using the Wind Riding Technique, he suddenly fell asleep with a crack, and Jiang Wan was thrown out.

Jiang Wan: Let me fly for a bit!

She formed a perfect parabola in the air. Fortunately, just as she was about to land, she was caught by her Foundation Establishment Uncle-Master who had rushed over.

Jiang Wan breathed a sigh of relief, her reputation saved.

The Foundation Establishment Uncle-Master breathed a sigh of relief, his life saved.

If someone had been taken away right under his nose, that would have been terrible.

Fortunately, it was only a late-stage Qi Refining disciple. He would have to thoroughly investigate how this disciple got here.

When Jiang Wan was brought back, the little ones were already beating up the late-stage Qi Refining disciple.

Besides punching and kicking, one was preparing to feed him poison, and another was preparing to draw the greatsword from his back and hack at him.

Another one pulled out a small whip from his waist to whip the person.

In comparison, Liuhuo's little loli was much gentler with his God-Beating Cudgel.

The Foundation Establishment Uncle-Master watched their actions and didn't rush to save the person.

How dare he lay hands on the sect's children? Killing him would be too lenient.

"You little ones, that's enough. Don't beat him to death. I'll interrogate him later to find out who ordered him to attack Jiang Wan. Go back now."

Jiang Wan was put down and ran to their side. She reached out and pulled the storage bag from the cultivator's waist. She knew that in the Cultivation World, one had to loot the fallen. Even though she had lost ten times in a row in the game, she wouldn't forget to loot.

"It's mine!"

The Foundation Establishment Uncle-Master patted her head, amused.

"I want to check if there's anything dangerous. If there isn't, I'll give it to you."

Jiang Wan handed the storage bag to this Foundation Establishment Uncle-Master, whose name was Han Li.

Han Li took the storage bag and scanned it with his Spiritual Sense. He didn't find anything with Demonic Qi or anything suspicious. He returned the storage bag to her and told them all to go back.

Han Li then carried the disciple and turned to leave.

The disciples guarding here were all carefully selected. Who could have bribed or controlled them?

Jiang Wan opened the storage bag and found about a hundred low-grade Spirit Stones inside, as well as quite a few pills and magical artifacts. At least, it was more than what she had.

Nangong Wanyu put away her whip. "Wanwan, are you okay? That big bad guy, if I see him again, I'll beat him to death!"

Nangong, the cute little one, puffed out her cheeks. Jiang Wan was even more curious about her little whip.

Jiang Wan thought Liuhuo the little loli used a sword, but she didn't expect him to use the God-Beating Cudgel. It was the kind of weapon that, with one blow, would not harm the flesh but destroy the soul, specifically targeting a person's soul!

Tsk, the little loli was terrifyingly powerful.

As for Dong Chen, the little boy, there was no need to say anything. He had already drawn his greatsword. With one slash, he could split a garlic bulb in two.

Little friend Lu Zhiyi, who used a pill cauldron, you're a Pill Cultivator, and you're already playing with poison at such a young age. Is this really okay? Which child should be more restrained?

Compared to them, she felt so useless. Oh, right, she was from the Myriad Talisman Sect, but she hadn't drawn a single talisman yet.

"Wanwan, why did he grab you?"

"Are you hurt?

Should we tell Master's Wife about this, and Uncle Mu Yi? He's very protective, and if he knew, he definitely wouldn't let that person off."

Jiang Wan shook her head and pulled them as they walked back.

"I'm not hurt, it just startled me. Fortunately, Uncle-Master Han Li arrived in time.

I don't know who he is or why he grabbed me. Let's wait for the results of Uncle-Master Han Li's interrogation. Come on, let's continue playing."

However, she was curious in her heart why the System hadn't given her a task completion notification. Could the stumbling block not be the Qi Refining senior brother who had grabbed her?

Then who could it be?

Many children in the large class didn't know that Jiang Wan had been in trouble. Those who did know curiously crowded around to ask her what had happened.

Little friend Xu Hengliang, wearing a small training uniform, stood not far away. He watched the five of them return and pouted.

"They didn't even use a sack to grab someone, two thumbs down!"

"What did you say?"

His words were overheard by Jiang Yao, who came over and asked him. Xu Hengliang responded with a glare.

"Get lost. What idea did you give me last time? It caused me to be beaten by my Uncle-Master, then by my Ancestor Master, then by my Master, and when I got home, my dad beat me again.

I don't want to see you now, so stay away from me."

Jiang Yao, looking wronged, tugged at Xu Hengliang's little sleeve. She was so small, yet she put on a wronged expression meant for adults, but the little Xu Hengliang opposite her wasn't buying it at all.

"Don't cry, I didn't provoke you. If you dare to cry, I'll beat you, believe it or not?"

Jiang Yao sniffled, gritted her teeth, and cursed him as a little brat under her breath. She blinked her big eyes and looked at Xu Hengliang, sighing.

"Sigh, I wasn't going to cry. Oh right, Senior Brother Xu, was your disciple acceptance ceremony last time very fun?"

Xu Hengliang immediately pulled away his clothes, his face dark, not wanting to deal with her.

"Sigh, Senior Brother Xu, you haven't had a disciple acceptance ceremony yet, have you? Then I understand, your Master is going to hold yours and Jiang Wan's disciple acceptance ceremony together?"

"Maybe, what's it to you?"

Speaking of this, little Xu Hengliang felt wronged. His Master had never said he would hold a disciple acceptance ceremony for him. Was he really going to be grouped with that little Uncle-Master?

Hmph, what was so great about that.

Jiang Yao continued to coax him.

"Of course it's my business! My Master said that because my Sister Jiang Wan is going to have her disciple acceptance ceremony, they'll hold my disciple acceptance ceremony at the same time. I was thinking yours might be the same, maybe even others too."

Hearing this, little Xu Hengliang felt more balanced. So, it was going to be held for everyone together.

"Who doesn't know that? My Master said the same thing."

Jiang Yao's lips curved slightly. In her previous life, he never had a disciple acceptance ceremony; it was just for her alone.

But why was there an extra Jiang Wan in this life?

"Really? That's great. Oh right, I know a place..."

While the two were talking, Nangong Wanyu saw Jiang Yao and Xu Hengliang getting together again and pouted, gesturing for Jiang Wan to look.

"Jiang Wan, look, those two are together again. Last time, it was Xu Hengliang who asked Jiang Yao to come and try to harm us. Is Xu Hengliang planning something bad again this time?"

Following Nangong Wanyu's gaze, Jiang Wan glanced over. The two were indeed together again. It felt like this Master's Nephew had been used by Jiang Yao last time.

She didn't believe Xu Hengliang's six or seven-year-old brain could outsmart Jiang Yao, the protagonist of Fortune. Truly, eating a hundred beans wouldn't let you know the taste of beans. She waited to see what Xu Hengliang would be used for this time.

At this moment, Madam Li hurried over. As soon as she arrived, she rushed towards Jiang Wan to hug her.

Jiang Wan lowered her head, her speed comparable to an Emperor Weapon, and slipped out from under her armpits. What a joke, did she think she could just hug her whenever she wanted?
