Chapter 392: Jia Wenchang: Trusting Daoist Friend Wang's Character

~7 min read 1,250 words

"Daoist Friend Wang, long time no see."

After not seeing each other for over a year, seeing Wang Jianqiang again made Lin Lin's drive for self-improvement stir.

A moving smile bloomed on her face.

Under Wang Jianqiang's guidance.

The two arrived in the main hall and sat down.

Wang Jianqiang looked her over.

He immediately sensed a trace of pressure from her.

After sensing carefully for a moment.

He felt a faint, flickering trace of Will Power on her.

A deep smile appeared on his face, "Congratulations to Fairy for successfully manifesting your Will."

Lin Lin smiled, "It is all thanks to Daoist Friend Wang's Will-Condensing Pill."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "It is simply because Fairy's drive for self-improvement is strong."

After saying this, his expression shifted, "Why did Fairy suddenly come to the Hehuan Sect? Has the three-sect Transmission Array been completed?"

"Mm."

Lin Lin nodded.

As expected.

Wang Jianqiang realized.

After the two chatted for a while longer.

Lin Lin looked at Wang Jianqiang, her expression hesitant, and said with a blushing face, "Daoist Friend Wang, I would like to..."

When she reached the end, it seemed difficult to put into words, and she suddenly stopped.

Wang Jianqiang was stunned and asked in confusion, "What does Fairy Lin wish to do?"

Lin Lin's expression shifted, and she stammered.

Wang Jianqiang chuckled inwardly, while remaining calm on the surface, "Fairy Lin, given our relationship, there is no need to be so troubled. If there is anything, just say it."

"If Wang can do it, I will certainly do my utmost."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's solemn words, Lin Lin felt somewhat moved.

She secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, she stopped stammering and said, "I would like to stay here with Daoist Friend Wang for a few days."

"So that is it."

Wang Jianqiang laughed upon hearing this, "With such a beauty favoring me, how could I, Wang, refuse?"

Lin Lin's expression brightened, and she continued, "Then, the Purification Power..."

"Fairy, rest assured, I will certainly do my best to gift it to you." Wang Jianqiang smiled.

Hearing this, Lin Lin felt completely at ease.

Not long after.

Liu Qing'er arrived outside Wang Jianqiang's residence.

Seeing the doors of Wang Jianqiang's residence tightly shut and the Array activated.

She seemed to have guessed something.

She did not disturb him and turned to leave.

The next day.

A sturdy-looking old man arrived.

Seeing the tightly shut doors of Wang Jianqiang's residence, his eyes lit up.

"Lin'er really did come to find Wang Jianqiang."

After discovering that Lin Lin had left the sect, Jia Wenchang had guessed that she must have come to the Hehuan Sect.

After all.

Wang Jianqiang's previous guidance seemed to have made her very happy.

It stood to reason that she would be unable to wait to find Wang Jianqiang to discuss cultivation once the Transmission Array was built.

Now it seemed his guess was indeed correct.

He pondered for a moment.

He did not leave, but waited outside Wang Jianqiang's residence.

He did not wait for long.

Two hours later.

The power of the Array outside Wang Jianqiang's residence faded away.

After another moment.

The door opened, and a slender, graceful figure walked out from the room.

Seeing this figure, Jia Wenchang's eyes lit up.

He took the initiative to greet her, saying with a chuckle, "Lin'er, here to spar with Daoist Friend Wang again?"

Seeing Jia Wenchang, Lin Lin frowned.

Sensing the dissatisfaction on Lin Lin's face, Jia Wenchang's heart skipped a beat, "Lin'er, you must not misunderstand. I am not following you, but rather here to pay a visit to Daoist Friend Wang."

Lin Lin looked at him expressionlessly, "As far as I know, you and Daoist Friend Wang do not seem to be very close, do you?"

Jia Wenchang smiled, "We were indeed not very close before, and even had some minor friction because of that trip to the Cold Pool Secret Realm, but Daoist Friend Wang is easygoing and magnanimous, and did not hold it against me."

"Long before we last left the Hehuan Sect, Daoist Friend Wang and I had already reconciled."

Hearing Jia Wenchang's words, Lin Lin's expression shifted.

Daoist Friend Wang is indeed a magnanimous person.

It is not impossible to be on good terms with Jia Wenchang.

She nodded, did not continue to ask, flew into the air, and left rapidly.

……

When Jia Wenchang walked into Wang Jianqiang's residence.

Wang Jianqiang was lying sprawled out on a soft chair.

His complexion was pale, and his face was covered in cold sweat.

"Daoist Friend Wang, you have worked hard."

Seeing this scene, Jia Wenchang felt a wave of emotion in his heart.

Wang Jianqiang's character is truly beyond reproach.

To think he exhausted himself to this state just to help Lin Lin cultivate.

It is easy to imagine.

Just how hard he must have worked to help Lin Lin cultivate.

Hearing Jia Wenchang's words, Wang Jianqiang waved his hand and said magnanimously, "Daoist Friend Jia is too polite. In my life, I have always loved those who are motivated. Fairy Lin is such a beauty, and for her to be so motivated, I am very pleased. Naturally, I must give my all to support her vigorously."

Upon hearing this, a look of admiration appeared on Jia Wenchang's face.

"In today's world of cultivation, there are not many people as noble as Daoist Friend Wang. I, Jia, admire you greatly."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "Daoist Friend Jia overpraises me; this is all what I should do."

After speaking, his expression shifted, and he smiled, "Daoist Friend Jia, have you come this time regarding the matter of playing matchmaker?"

Seeing Wang Jianqiang bring up the matter himself, Jia Wenchang's eyes brightened, "I wonder if you have spoken well of me in front of Lin'er?"

"Naturally." Wang Jianqiang nodded with a smile.

"And how did Lin'er respond?" Jia Wenchang hurriedly asked.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "I only pretended to mention you unintentionally before."

"I chatted with Fairy Lin symbolically for a few sentences, but Fairy Lin did not show much of a reaction."

"This..."

A flash of impatience crossed Jia Wenchang's face.

"Daoist Friend Jia, you are still too impatient."

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "You should know that going too far is as bad as not going far enough. This matter must be done step by step; one cannot go straight to the point."

"If I were to be blunt and bring you up directly to her, wouldn't the intention be too obvious?"

"I fear that would only make her feel resistant and have the opposite effect."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's measured words, Jia Wenchang's expression was startled.

He nodded repeatedly, "Daoist Friend Wang is right to lecture me. It is I who was too impatient; you are the one with the far-sighted vision."

Wang Jianqiang nodded, his expression smiling and full of the look of someone who has everything under control, "I have already inquired; Fairy Lin intends to stay in the Hehuan Sect for a long time, so there will surely be no lack of opportunities for her to cultivate and spar with me."

"When that time comes, I will proceed step by step..."

"Just wait and see."

As he spoke, the smile on Wang Jianqiang's face gradually grew richer.

Upon hearing this, Jia Wenchang.

Also revealed a hearty smile.

"Hahaha~"

"I, Jia, trust in Daoist Friend Wang's character."

"With those words from you, Daoist Friend Wang, I can rest easy."
