Chapter 516: Linge's Situation

Wang Jianqiang smiled and looked at Linge, "Senior sister invited me here, I wonder what instructions you have."

Linge's pretty face flushed, "Nothing much, it's just that I haven't seen you since we last met, junior brother, and I've been missing you, so I called you over to sit for a while."

Wang Jianqiang's eyes flashed, and he nodded with a smile.

He looked Linge up and down and said, "It seems you have gained quite a lot from your seclusion during this period, senior sister. At this rate, you will be able to break through to the Fifth-Order Will Stage in at most half a year."

Linge nodded, a flash of gratitude appearing on her face, "I must thank you for the Pill, junior brother. If not for your help, it would have taken me at least another ten years to break through."

"Senior sister, why be so polite between us?" Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head, stepping forward to wrap his arms around Linge's slender waist.

Linge was instinctively startled, but she reacted immediately.

Although her face was flushed with shyness, she did not struggle away.

Wang Jianqiang looked at Linge with a smile, "Senior sister, since I'm here today and I have some free time these few days, why don't I help you purify your Spirit Root."

Linge lowered her head slightly, not daring to look at him.

She nodded gently.

……

Five days later.

Linge felt that magical power surging into her body.

Even though it was the second time experiencing it, she still couldn't help but feel shocked.

Although this power was faint, it was extremely pure.

She could clearly feel that her Spiritual Power, her body, and even her Soul had all been purified.

Although the extent of the purification was small, it was truly and tangibly present.

If the effect could continue like this, the results would be unimaginable.

A transformation of one's foundation—this is no exaggeration!

A flash of Spirit Light appeared on Wang Jianqiang.

He donned his Dharma Robe.

Looking at Linge, who appeared somewhat dazed, he smiled, "Let's stop here for today. I have other matters to attend to, so I will leave first. I will come another day to purify you, senior sister."

Linge came back to her senses and nodded, "Mm, sorry for the trouble, junior brother."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head.

He pointed his finger forward.

The space in front of him immediately rippled like water.

He lifted his foot to step in, then seemed to remember something, and looked at Linge, "Senior sister, do you still have enough Pills and Desolate Source Liquid?"

Linge nodded, "The quantity of Pills and Desolate Source Liquid you gave me before was very large; I haven't even used up a small half of it yet."

Wang Jianqiang nodded and turned to walk into the rippling space.

Outside.

The courtyard gate opened.

Wang Jianqiang walked out from within.

Just as he was about to return to his own residence, a voice suddenly came.

"Junior brother Wang."

Hearing this, Wang Jianqiang looked in the direction the voice came from.

When he saw who it was, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

A warm smile appeared on his face, "So it is senior brother Lin."

The person who arrived was none other than Lin Zhijing.

Lin Zhijing flashed over and appeared in front of Wang Jianqiang, looking at him with a face full of flattery, "Junior brother, did you go to help sister E again?"

As he spoke, he gave Wang Jianqiang a thumbs up, "Junior brother, you truly have a warm heart and noble character; you are a role model for us all."

"To think you have tirelessly helped sister E for five consecutive days."

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, "How did you know, senior brother?"

Lin Zhijing gave an awkward smile and said, "I won't hide it from you, junior brother. Ever since I last spoke with you, I haven't contacted sister E for over half a month. Five days ago, I couldn't help but come by sister E's place to take a look."

"I didn't see sister E, but I happened to see you entering sister E's residence."

"So that's how it is."

Wang Jianqiang realized.

A flash of hesitation crossed Lin Zhijing's face as he said to Wang Jianqiang, "I wonder if you mentioned my matter to sister E this time, junior brother?"

Wang Jianqiang shook his head, "No."

Lin Zhijing was stunned, "Junior brother, why is that?"

Wang Jianqiang glanced at him, "Didn't I already say? Senior sister Linge will be devoting herself entirely to cultivation for a period of time and has no time to consider other things. Mentioning it now is not a good time."

"Besides, I have been busy these past few days, and senior sister Linge has been assisting me. After five days of hard work, we are both very exhausted, so how could we spare the energy for such things?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's tone, which contained a hint of reproach, Lin Zhijing immediately reacted.

He couldn't help but curse himself inwardly.

He was still being too impatient.

The junior brother had clearly warned him not to be impatient last time; why hadn't he learned his lesson?

Thinking of this, he cupped his hands toward Wang Jianqiang with a look of apology, "Junior brother, it is I who was impatient."

Wang Jianqiang nodded.

Lin Zhijing hesitated for a moment, then spoke again, "Junior brother, then until you and sister E have cleared things up, should I just not contact her at all?"

Wang Jianqiang pondered for a moment and said, "You can occasionally send a voice transmission to chat a few words, or come by her door to take a look. If you happen to run into her, you can chat a bit, but you must not delay her time."

"After all, she is currently at a critical moment in her cultivation. If she were to delay her cultivation because of you, she might not say anything on the surface, but she would certainly feel resentment in her heart."

"Before I, Wang, confess everything to her, you must maintain the image you have in her heart and not make any mistakes."

"That makes sense."

Lin Zhijing nodded and bowed gratefully to Wang Jianqiang, "Many thanks for the guidance, Junior Brother Wang. I understand now."

"Hmm, since that is the case, I, Wang, will not chat with you further, Senior Brother."

Wang Jianqiang nodded and walked into his residence.

Lin Zhijing watched the courtyard gate slowly close.

His admiration for Wang Jianqiang's character grew even deeper in his heart.

"What a good man~"

Wang Jianqiang had just returned to the Residence Space.

A surge of Will Power suddenly erupted from the depths of the space, then immediately retracted.

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, and a smile appeared on his face.

His figure flickered.

In an instant, he appeared inside the Pavilion's main hall.

When Wang Jianqiang arrived in the hall, Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, Tushan Youyou, Yun Xin, Yang Wanxin, Xiao Keke, and even the Great Star Envoy and the Little Chicken had already appeared in the hall.

The moment Wang Jianqiang appeared, a green light flashed before his eyes and landed on his shoulder.

Immediately following.

The women all sensed something and turned to look.

"Senior Brother."

"Uncle Wang."

"Daoist Friend Wang."

"Master."

Smiles appeared on the faces of the women as they gathered around Wang Jianqiang.

In an instant, a pleasant fragrance wafted over.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded at the women, then looked at the figure in the silver dress and mask behind the crowd.

Sensing Wang Jianqiang's gaze, the Great Star Envoy's figure trembled, and a voice came from beneath the mask, "Master."

Wang Jianqiang nodded faintly and looked toward Mu Lingxi's room.

Under the gaze of everyone.

The room door slowly opened, and Mu Lingxi walked out. Upon seeing Wang Jianqiang, a joyful smile immediately bloomed on her beautiful face.

A flash of Spirit Light.

She rushed directly into Wang Jianqiang's arms, "Senior Brother, I have broken through."

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded, "Congratulations."

"Then should we celebrate immediately?" Mu Lingxi looked at Wang Jianqiang with eager eyes.

Wang Jianqiang smiled and nodded, "Of course, a breakthrough is a major life event; how could we not celebrate it?"

"Come, come, let us have a good celebration today."

He walked into the room with a chuckle.

Seeing this, Wang Yu Yao and the other women exchanged glances.

They smiled and followed after him.

A moment later.

Only the Great Star Envoy remained in the entire hall.

She looked at the room everyone had entered, a flash of envy crossing her eyes.

She could perceive it.

Ever since Wang Jianqiang returned, the women's cultivation speed had become much faster.

In a short time, Mu Lingxi had already broken through to the Second-tier Will Level.

Although the cultivation of the other women had not yet broken through, it had increased significantly, and they were not far from breaking through to the Second-tier Will Level.

If this continued.

In at most half a year, the rest of the women would all break through.

And surpass her.

"Creak~"

Just as the Great Star Envoy's expression flickered.

The room door that had just closed was suddenly opened.

"Why is a child following us in?"

"Go out and play."

Following a grumbling voice from Wang Jianqiang.

A small figure was tossed out.

Immediately after, the room door slammed shut again.

The Little Chicken flapped its wings to steady itself.

"Zhi zhi zhi~"

It looked at the tightly closed door, its large eyes filled with a look of grievance.

After making a complaint, she glared at the Great Star Envoy, an outsider.

She transformed into a streak of green light and flew into a room.

The Great Star Envoy's body stiffened.

Casting a wary glance at the chick's room, she turned and walked toward her own room.

……

Ten days later.

Wang Jianqiang's Dang Kong Power achieved another remarkable success.

He defeated everyone with an overwhelming posture and returned to the hall with his head held high and chest puffed out.

At this moment, he couldn't help but think of Lin Lin.

If he were to return to the Northern Territory, he would like to see whether her vibration power was stronger or his Dang Kong Power was superior.

Just as Wang Jianqiang was feeling full of ambition.

The Great Star Envoy walked out of her room; she looked at Wang Jianqiang, her expression beneath her mask shifting for a moment, and she whispered, "Master."

Wang Jianqiang looked back, "What? Is something the matter?"

The Great Star Envoy fell silent for a moment, then said, "I want some Perfect Pills to assist in cultivation."

Wang Jianqiang raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, "Withdraw."

Hearing this, the Great Star Envoy's face beneath the mask stiffened, then she gritted her teeth and said, "I can purchase them from Master; I will certainly not let Master suffer a loss."

Wang Jianqiang heard this and said with a half-smile, "What resources do you intend to use to trade with me?"

"Desolate Source Liquid? Or perhaps the secret techniques of your Star Palace that are not to be passed on?"

The Great Star Envoy's expression faltered, and she said with a lack of confidence, "I don't have much Desolate Source Liquid on me, and Star Palace secret techniques are forbidden from being passed to outsiders. Can I trade with you using Spirit Stones or Magic Treasures?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled and shook his head, "Do you think Wang is lacking in the things you mentioned?"

The Great Star Envoy was stunned.

"Withdraw. You cannot afford my pills," Wang Jianqiang said indifferently.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the Great Star Envoy's expression shifted.

She wanted to withdraw.

But when she thought of how people like Wang Yu Yao, who were originally inferior to her, would soon surpass her, she couldn't help but feel unwilling.

If it were just people like Wang Yu Yao, although she was unwilling, she could still barely endure it.

The key was the traitor Xing Li.

Now that Xing Li was out on a mission and not in the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace, it didn't matter much.

Once she returned.

Under the infusion of Wang Jianqiang's resources, Xing Li's cultivation would likely surpass hers very quickly.

As the most eye-catching heaven-gifted daughter in the Star Palace, how could she endure being surpassed by a fellow disciple who was once inferior to her and is now a traitor?

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and stubbornly asked, "What must I do for Master to give me the pills?"

Wang Jianqiang heard this and looked at her with interest, "Aren't you very good at calculating? Why don't you calculate it and see?"

The Great Star Envoy's expression faltered.

For some reason, her Astrology would fail whenever it involved Wang Jianqiang, and she could not divine a single bit of information.

She shook her head, "I cannot calculate any information regarding Master."

Wang Jianqiang heard this, and his expression stirred.

He thought of the silver eye that had been shattered by his Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze back in the Great Desolate Ancient Tower.

He smiled, "Since you want them so much, I will give you a chance."

After speaking, he transmitted his voice to the Great Star Envoy, saying seven concise and comprehensive words.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's such shameless and blunt words, the Great Star Envoy's face beneath her mask instantly turned bright red.

She subconsciously began to shake her head.

"How could you say that?"

"No!"

Wang Jianqiang looked at her indifferently, "Since that is the case, Wang will not force you; you may withdraw."

The Great Star Envoy's expression faltered.

Withdraw?

She had a premonition that if she truly withdrew, she would never get a single resource from Wang Jianqiang in the future.

But...

If she agreed to him.

Wouldn't she become his person from now on?

He was in league with Xing Li and had once killed several Star Envoys.

It was destined that he would stand on the opposite side of the Star Palace.

If she followed him, how would she face the Star Palace in the future?

Just as she was caught in a dilemma.

Wang Jianqiang's voice suddenly came again, "What? Is it very difficult?"

"Wang admires ambitious cultivators most in his life. Since you are so ambitious, Wang will make an exception and give you another chance."

The Great Star Envoy felt a surge of joy and looked toward Wang Jianqiang, waiting for his follow-up.

Wang Jianqiang wore a faint smile on his face, "It is rumored that the Great Star Envoy is a peerless genius of the Star Palace. Wang has always been very curious; if you can let me properly admire your full appearance, I will give you a Perfect Pill to assist in cultivation."

The Great Star Envoy was stunned upon hearing this.

Hadn't Wang Jianqiang already seen her appearance?

To think he would still use this as a condition?

Could it be that his conscience had awakened, and he was prepared to give her the Pill for free?

Thoughts flashed through the Great Star Envoy's mind, and without much thought, she nodded, "Fine, I agree to your terms."

As she spoke, a flash of Spirit Light appeared on her face.

She put away her mask, revealing a stunningly beautiful face.

Wang Jianqiang swept his gaze over her face and nodded in satisfaction.

Afterwards, seeing that the other party had no further actions, he looked at her in surprise, "Continue."

The Great Star Envoy was startled, "Continue what? Didn't you say you wanted to see my face?"

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "That's right, you have only revealed a part of your face now; I meant that I want to see your entire face."

As he spoke, he gestured with his chin toward the Great Star Envoy's body.

The Great Star Envoy was stunned, then immediately realized what he meant.

She couldn't help but take two steps back, "No, that is absolutely impossible~~"

Wang Jianqiang frowned, "This won't do, that won't do; are you trying to pull a fast one on me?"

"Leave now, I have no time to waste with you; if you dare to disturb me again, I will not be polite."

The Great Star Envoy's heart tightened.

She hesitated in her heart, not knowing what to do.

Seeing that she still hadn't left, Wang Jianqiang's expression turned cold, "Great Star Envoy, you seem to have some trouble recognizing your own situation."

"Wang does not touch you only because I have my bottom line,"

"Wang considers my own character to be decent enough; if you are unwilling, I truly will not treat you that way, but I can kill you."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's voice, which had turned icy cold, the Great Star Envoy's heart trembled.

She gritted her teeth and said to Wang Jianqiang, "Master, may I only show you half?"

Wang Jianqiang's expression shifted, and he looked at the Great Star Envoy with an icy gaze.

It was not until the Great Star Envoy's eyes flickered and she began to dodge his gaze that he looked away.

"Fine, in consideration of your willingness to make progress, Wang will take one more step back."

Seeing that Wang Jianqiang had agreed, the Great Star Envoy felt a surge of joy.

"Now, begin."

Just at this moment, Wang Jianqiang's voice came again.

The Great Star Envoy looked at Wang Jianqiang, "Master, I would like to return to my own room."

"What a hassle."

Wang Jianqiang shook his head.

Two hours later.

Wang Jianqiang walked out of the room.

His eyes were somewhat bright.

Who would have guessed, this Great Star Envoy is actually a very filial child.

Raising her grandfather's wife to be so plump and healthy.
