Chapter 476: An Unexpected Visit
Caidie knew this very well.
Wang Jianqiang's status in this Wenxian City was already unshakable.
If she were to speak of her own encounter, she feared Senior Brother would lose his reason.
If he were to go and risk his life against Wang Jianqiang at that time, would that not be throwing his life away?
Rather than that.
It would be better to let this reason stand as fact.
Worry is always better than losing one's life.
Seeing that Caidie did not continue to be stubborn, Kunshan nodded with satisfaction.
He stood up.
Just as he was about to leave, his complexion suddenly turned pale, and a trace of black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.
Caidie's expression was one of shock.
"Senior Brother, what is wrong with you?"
"It is nothing."
Kunshan shook his head, "It is merely a lingering effect from the injuries I sustained during the city defense battle back then."
"A lingering effect?"
Caidie frowned, "Did Senior Brother not say that your injuries had already healed?"
Kunshan gave a bitter smile and shook his head, "I also thought they had healed, but I did not expect that the poison could erode the Soul; a wisp of toxic power invaded my Soul without me noticing."
"I only discovered it not long ago, when the erosion of my Soul became increasingly severe and erupted in intense pain."
Caidie's expression was one of shock.
Any injury involving the Soul is never simple.
Senior Brother had actually been eroded by poison in his Soul!
Sensing the worried look on Caidie's face, Kunshan shook his head, "Junior Sister need not worry too much; the poison that invaded my Soul is but a tiny wisp, and it can be refined away in thirty or fifty years."
"It is just that, during this period, my cultivation will be unable to improve."
Speaking to this point, a flash of despondency crossed his face.
His cultivation was currently in a stage of vigorous advancement.
Now that it was delayed for thirty or fifty years, this loss could not be considered small.
Caidie naturally knew this as well.
Her expression could not help but sink.
"Alright, there is no danger to my life, why this expression?"
"Remember my instructions to you; you must take them seriously and must never let an Inner Demon grow."
Kunshan shook his head and gave one final instruction.
He walked toward the door.
Caidie watched Kunshan's departing back and fell into deep thought.
The thing a cultivator fears most is being interrupted while their cultivation is in a stage of vigorous advancement.
Once broken, it may very well take several times the effort to make up for it in the future.
Senior Brother's cultivation cannot be delayed.
In this Wenxian City, there are many Alchemists.
But there is only one who definitely has the ability to help Senior Brother and allow him to recover in the shortest possible time.
Only one person!
But she did not want to see this person again.
And the other party might not necessarily be willing to help her.
Thinking of this.
Her expression immediately went through a struggle.
A moment later.
She let out a long breath and made up her mind.
……
In the room, heat waves rolled.
Wang Jianqiang sat cross-legged, continuously casting hand seals toward the Pill Furnace in front of him.
Beads of sweat hung on his forehead.
A moment later.
The Pill inside the furnace took form.
He changed his hand seals, and the flames inside the furnace extinguished.
He hooked his finger.
The Pill flew out of the furnace and was collected by him into a Jade Bottle.
At this moment.
A tender figure walked up and used a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
The texture of the handkerchief was fine and soft, very comfortable.
Wang Jianqiang looked at Xiao Keke, who was standing obediently by his side, smiled, and flicked his finger; a Jade Bottle flew in front of Xiao Keke.
"Not bad, your performance during this period has made me very satisfied."
"There are ten drops of Desolate Source Liquid here; take them and use them."
"Many thanks, Master."
Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Xiao Keke happily put away the Jade Bottle.
More than a year had passed since Wang Jianqiang had planted the Slave Seal within her.
In this short year.
She had truly witnessed what it meant to be wealthy and imposing.
Not to mention the Perfect Pill.
She had already obtained over a hundred drops of Desolate Source Liquid alone.
This value.
Was almost comparable to the combined income of their previous six-person team for nearly half a year!
Plus the Perfect Pill.
Calculated this way, the income was actually higher than the total income of the six of them working themselves to the bone for an entire year!
Although she did not want to admit it.
She had to say.
Becoming Wang Jianqiang's maid was perhaps the greatest stroke of fortune since she had stepped onto the path of cultivation!
Knock, knock, knock~
Just as Xiao Keke put away the Jade Bottle, a knock on the door suddenly came.
Wang Jianqiang's Spirit Sense swept past outside the door.
His expression shifted, and a faint curve appeared at the corner of his mouth, "She actually came to find me on her own? Interesting."
Thinking this, he rose and went to the main hall, sitting down on a chair.
Xiao Keke walked straight to the entrance and opened the door.
Outside the door.
Caidie was stunned when she saw the person who opened the door.
Wei Yuan had humiliated Senior Brother many times.
He was a mortal enemy of Senior Brother.
She was naturally extremely familiar with Wei Yuan and those around him.
The moment the door opened, she recognized Xiao Keke.
It was rumored that Wei Yuan and Wang Jianqiang had a terrible relationship.
Xiao Keke was a member of Wei Yuan's team, and also his childhood sweetheart; the two had mutual feelings for each other.
Wei Yuan's enemy should naturally be her enemy.
The two should be like fire and water.
How could this Xiao Keke appear in Wang Jianqiang's residence?
"It's you."
Xiao Keke frowned.
Caidie was not only the person in charge of the Wenxian City Enforcement Department, but also Kun Shan's Junior Sister.
Because of the relationship between Wei Yuan and Kun Shan.
The relationship between her and Caidie had always been very tense.
Every time the two met, there was no shortage of sarcasm and mockery between them.
"Xiao Keke, you are actually here at Master Wang's place."
"Could it be that you came secretly, hiding it from Wei Yuan?"
Caidie's expression shifted, and a look of inexplicable meaning appeared on her face.
Lies do not hurt, but the truth is a sharp blade!
Since becoming Wang Jianqiang's maid, Xiao Keke had always felt full of guilt toward Brother Wei Yuan in her heart.
Caidie's words directly tore open the scar deep in her heart.
Making her unable to help but show an angry expression.
She opened her mouth.
The next moment, as if thinking of something, she glanced into the room without leaving a trace and suppressed the anger in her heart.
She turned and walked into the room.
Seeing this, Caidie felt a wave of surprise in her heart.
With Xiao Keke's temper, she was actually able to endure it without saying a word?
This was truly a strange affair.
She looked into the room thoughtfully.
She lifted her foot and walked in.
After entering the room.
She saw Wang Jianqiang sitting lazily on a chair.
At the same time, she saw Xiao Keke once again.
At this moment.
Xiao Keke was standing behind Wang Jianqiang, her pair of fair and delicate hands placed on Wang Jianqiang's shoulders.
Her long, slender fingers were continuously massaging Wang Jianqiang's shoulders gently.
Seeing this scene.
Caidie froze right where she stood.
Xiao Keke, she actually had no regard at all for the distinction between men and women.
Like a loyal maidservant, she was massaging Wang Jianqiang!!
Wasn't she on good terms with Wei Yuan?
How could she be so intimate with Wei Yuan's mortal enemy?
Does Wei Yuan know?
Sensing Caidie's strange gaze.
The shame and anger in Xiao Keke's heart had almost reached its limit.
Yet she dared not stop massaging Wang Jianqiang's shoulders, though the shame and anger in her heart inevitably affected her control over the strength of her massage.
Wang Jianqiang's expression stirred, and he said indifferently, "That's enough, Ke Ke, no need to massage for now."
Hearing this, Xiao Keke felt as if she had been granted a pardon.
She stood respectfully by Wang Jianqiang's side.
Seeing this scene, Caidie was completely stunned.
This Xiao Keke was actually so obedient to Wang Jianqiang's words.
Could it be that she had really become Wang Jianqiang's maidservant?
