Chapter 1235: The Land Near Immortality

~8 min read 1,443 words

Time flowed by slowly.

Not long after.

Just as Wang Jianqiang expected, Nangong Yu's Intent Power had indeed reached level ten.

Afterwards, her potential for Intent Power and her Soul's carrying capacity both reached their limits, and she stopped cultivating.

Wang Jianqiang waved his palm, putting away the remaining Artistic Conception Origin Fragments.

He looked at Nangong Yu with a smile, "How do you feel?"

A flash of bewilderment crossed Nangong Yu's face, as if she had not yet recovered from the shock of her cultivation base improving.

After being stunned for a moment, the bewilderment on her face gradually faded.

A moving smile appeared on her face, "Very good."

Wang Jianqiang nodded and said calmly, "An improvement in cultivation is a joyous occasion."

Nangong Yu was taken aback.

"Ahem, a joyous occasion~" Wang Jianqiang repeated once more.

Nangong Yu's heart stirred, and the corners of her mouth lifted slightly, "That's right, a joyous occasion; it should be celebrated."

A flash of appreciation crossed Wang Jianqiang's eyes, "That's right, it should be celebrated. Shall we set up a few tables for a feast?"

Nangong Yu shook her head, "No need, we can just celebrate by ourselves."

The look of appreciation in Wang Jianqiang's eyes grew a bit stronger.

Qin Yun was taken aback, "Celebrate by ourselves? How?"

Wang Jianqiang also revealed a look of bewilderment, "Exactly, why am I having trouble understanding?"

Nangong Yu pursed her lips, "You'll understand in a moment."

"Yu'er succeeded?"

In a great hall of the Nan Family.

A somewhat handsome middle-aged man revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

"That's right."

Qin Ran nodded excitedly, "In this way, I will have a chance to obtain forgiveness and return to that place."

Hearing Qin Ran's words, the middle-aged man frowned, "However, that grand event is only ten years away from beginning. With Yu'er's cultivation base, it is likely very difficult to obtain recognition from that place."

Upon hearing this, the smile on Qin Ran's face faded, and then she said with a determined expression, "To obtain recognition, the cultivation base is only secondary; the Bloodline Power is what is most important."

"Yu'er's bloodline manifested from a young age, even affecting her appearance from the inside out, which already proves that her Bloodline Power is strong."

"Now that she has also mastered that Secret Technique, even looking at that place, she can at least be called a heaven-gifted talent."

"Although the turmoil caused by our affair back then was great, that was purely because of my status; after all, my bloodline is thin and I am not valued. If I can bring back a heaven-gifted talent, it will certainly be able to offset the sin."

The middle-aged man nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this.

He pondered for a moment and suddenly spoke, "Where is Yu'er?"

"Yu'er just finished her closed-door cultivation and is very exhausted; she is likely resting right now," Qin Ran smiled.

Speaking of this, her voice paused, "By the way, Wang Jianqiang has come to our Nan Family."

"Wang Jianqiang?"

Nan Jingtian was taken aback and asked in surprise, "That Wang Jianqiang from the Gentleman Alliance in the Tianhuo Domain?"

Qin Ran nodded.

Nan Jingtian stood up immediately, "Why didn't you tell me sooner? The current Wang Jianqiang is in his prime in the Immortal Abandoned Land; how can we neglect him like this?"

"No, I must go and receive him."

Qin Ran shook her head, "Rest assured, I have already met him."

Nan Jingtian was taken aback and asked in astonishment, "You've met him? He came to the Nan Family and didn't come to see me, the Clan Head, so how did he go to see you?"

Qin Ran shook her head, "My meeting with him was just an accident."

"An accident?" The doubt on Nan Jingtian's face grew even stronger, "What accident?"

Seeing that Nan Jingtian had the posture of someone who would get to the bottom of it, Qin Ran said calmly, "Didn't Yu'er say when she returned home after just joining the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace that she was well-acquainted with Wang Jianqiang?"

"Wang Jianqiang came to the Nan Family this time to find Yu'er."

"After he arrived at the Nan Family, he was arranged by Qin Yun to stay in Cuiyu Garden, and I happened to run into him when I went to Cuiyu Garden."

Nan Jingtian was suddenly enlightened upon hearing this, "So that's how it is."

Following that, his brows furrowed, "Yu'er often keeps Wang Jianqiang on her lips, and now Wang Jianqiang has come to the Nan Family; have these two gotten a bit too close?"

To tell the truth, Wang Jianqiang's talent is very strong.

But that place is mysterious and powerful, yet even more closed off...

Cultivators within it are strictly forbidden from intermarrying with the outside world.

The fact that he and Ran'er were able to be together back then was already taking a huge risk.

Yu'er is different from Ran'er.

Ran'er's talent is limited, and she is not valued by that place.

If Yu'er can obtain recognition from that place and become a heaven-gifted talent of that place.

She will certainly be valued.

The restrictions on her intermarriage with the outside will surely be even more severe.

Although Wang Jianqiang is strong, it is very difficult for him to be looked upon by the cultivators of that place.

When that time comes...

I fear this will become a disaster for both Wang Jianqiang and Yu'er.

Hearing Nan Jingtian's words, Qin Ran shook her head, "Whatever makes Yu'er happy is fine."

Nan Jingtian's brows furrowed tightly, "But..."

Before Nan Jingtian could finish his sentence, Qin Ran's voice came again, "No need for 'buts'. Yu'er is not me, and you are not Wang Jianqiang."

"Do not project the difficulties we encountered onto them out of thin air."

Nan Jingtian was stunned, then a look of astonishment appeared on his face, "You have such confidence in Wang Jianqiang? You believe he can gain the recognition of that place in the future?"

"Why couldn't he?"

Qin Ran countered, "That place is indeed powerful, but for Wang Jianqiang to have achieved what he has at this age, he is by no means ordinary."

"Moreover, rules are only meant to bind the weak; the future her will not necessarily be bound by them."

Nan Jingtian's eyes widened.

He felt that Qin Ran had gone mad.

That place was a legendary land, a place bordering on the immortal, the most powerful place in this world.

She actually believed that Wang Jianqiang and Nangong Yu could transcend the rules of that place in the future!

Seeing Nan Jingtian's expression, Qin Ran smiled, "For Yu'er, being able to enter that place to cultivate will not only fulfill my long-cherished wish, but it will also be of immense benefit to her future cultivation; she must go."

"As for the future..."

"No one can say for sure about the future; we only need to focus on the present."

Upon hearing this, Nan Jingtian nodded.

After learning that Wang Jianqiang had arrived at the Nan Family.

Nan Jingtian immediately summoned Nancheng Kong, and together with Qin Ran, they gave him a thorough and vigorous "mixed doubles" beating.

This brat brought Wang Jianqiang back to the Nan Family without even reporting it to them.

No sense of rules...

Deserves a beating~

"Dad, Mom, I know I was wrong."

Nancheng Kong scurried away with his head covered, begging for mercy repeatedly while sporting a face swollen like a pig's head.

Only then did Nan Jingtian and Qin Ran stop.

"Nancheng Kong, such an important guest as Wang Jianqiang, and you dared to just dump him on your Aunt Yun!"

"It is fortunate that your Aunt Yun knows the gravity of the situation and personally received Wang Jianqiang, working tirelessly and becoming exhausted."

"Otherwise, if you had slighted Wang Jianqiang, I would have beaten your backside into three pieces!"

Hearing Nan Jingtian's voice, Nancheng Kong's heart skipped a beat.

Working tirelessly?

Exhausted?

Others might not know what this implied, but he keenly guessed a thing or two.

"Damn it~"

"What a beast!"

"What did you say!"

Nan Jingtian's face darkened, "Nancheng Kong, you rebellious son, you actually dare to curse your father!"

As soon as Nan Jingtian's voice fell, he unleashed his fists and kicks again, beating Nancheng Kong until he was wailing to the heavens and earth.

"Dad, are you fucking deaf?"

"I wasn't talking about you!"

"You? Fuck your mother, you dare to call yourself 'father' in front of me? See if I don't beat you to death!"

"Mom, this old guy Nan Jingtian just talked about you~~ Help me~~"
