Chapter 230: Jiang Chen's Interest, Heading to Wudan City!

Besides these clansmen who were anxious to comprehend the sword stele,

there were also some onlookers who immediately left the spot, preparing to spread the news of the clan head bestowing the sword stele to every brother and sister.

One told ten, ten told a hundred.

In no time at all,

the news that the clan head had bestowed a sword stele capable of helping people increase their comprehension of sword Dao spread as if it had grown a pair of wings, swiftly spreading throughout the entire Cangwu Mountain, letting everyone learn of this matter.

More and more clansmen of the Jiang clan rushed to the family plaza, crowding around the sword stele to watch the excitement.

Even Jiang Chen, Jiang Yan, Jiang Zhiwei, and the others were no exception, all feeling a strong interest in this!

Moreover, because different paths can lead to the same goal,

it caused those who cultivated blade Dao to also be able to draw analogies under the influence of the sword stele, gaining more new insights.

When someone discovered this point and it spread, the attraction of the sword stele doubled once again, causing even more clansmen to rush over.

A sea of people, with sounds of clamor filling the air everywhere.

Because the crowd was too packed, many people were unable to get close to the sword stele and could only watch from afar.

At this moment, Jiang Yan gazed at the sword stele not far away, a look of curiosity surfacing deep in his pupils.

Although his aptitude for sword Dao was not good, he could only be considered of average talent.

He could still feel, from the sword Dao pressure emitted by the sword stele, that his comprehension was slowly increasing.

Just what method did the clan head use to achieve this?

At this moment, Zhou Lao within the ring also wore a solemn expression, feeling utterly astonished.

One must know that to maintain sword qi from dissipating for a long time, at the very least it would require a Sword King who had mastered sword spirits to be able to do so.

Let alone attaching sword qi to an object, with no one controlling it, the sword qi would not naturally restrain its might, causing the burst of sword qi to be extremely powerful.

Ordinary people, let alone comprehending, could not even get close, and would only be injured by the sword qi, or even have their divine soul pierced through, dying on the spot!

Just how did this Jiang clan head manage to do it, allowing so many clansmen to safely comprehend the sword qi?

It truly is baffling, hard to comprehend.......

On the other side.

Standing in the crowd, Jiang Chen, after glancing at the sword stele a few times, quickly withdrew his gaze.

After obtaining the wordless sword scroll bestowed by the clan head,

the help the sword stele could provide was too weak for him, truly unable to pique his interest.

Just as he was about to turn and leave, suddenly, as if sensing something, he couldn't help but stop his steps, standing still on the spot.

Jiang Chen followed the feeling in his heart and turned his head to look.

He saw not far away, beside Gu Xingjian, standing a pony-tailed girl wearing tight-fitting clothes.

The faint artistic conception emanating invisibly

caused his brow to raise slightly, feeling somewhat astonished.

"This is.... sword intent? I've been in closed-door cultivation for so long, when did such a figure appear in my Jiang family?"

Jiang Chen's gaze shifted slightly, his interest greatly increasing.

He had not expected that in just the span of one closed-door cultivation, another Sword Sect had appeared in the family.

Moreover, the other party was a completely unfamiliar face, which made him secretly marvel.

And at this moment, as Jiang Chen looked over,

Jiang Zhiwei instinctively sensed something, then immediately raised her head to look, her gaze meeting Jiang Chen's exactly.

Two streams of sword intent intertwined in a dimension no one else could perceive.

Due to her face-blindness, Jiang Zhiwei did not recognize the other's identity.

But based on this sword intent, she still quickly reacted and recognized the other's identity.

In today's Jiang family, besides the clan head and Steward Gu,

the only one who could comprehend sword intent was Clan Brother Jiang Chen!

Thinking of this, her fighting spirit suddenly surged, wanting to spar with the other party.

But Jiang Chen saw through her intention in advance, and immediately transmitted his voice with spiritual sense:

"Your current cultivation base is too weak; if we fight, you will surely lose. Wait until you reach the Purple Mansion realm, then compete swords with me."

After obtaining the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body, even when deliberately controlling it,

the force of a casual sword strike was absolutely not something the other party could withstand.

Therefore, Jiang Chen was unwilling to participate in this sword competition with no suspense.

He only planned to wait until the other party reached the Purple Mansion cultivation base before engaging in combat.

Of course, whether winning or losing, it didn't matter to him.

After all, in his heart, sword Dao was not the entirety of life, only a tool to become stronger.

As long as one could become stronger, whether using a blade or practicing the sword, there was no difference to him.

From beginning to end, what he truly valued was always only strength!

At this moment, hearing Jiang Chen's spiritual sense transmission,

Jiang Zhiwei gripped her long sword tightly and silently nodded.

She also understood that her own cultivation base was truly too low, the gap with this clan brother too vast—so vast that even without relying on cultivation base, just the physical strength nourished by spiritual energy would be enough to make her lose!

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiwei's inner desire to become stronger grew even more intense.

She immediately resolved that from now on she would properly cultivate, striving to soon possess the qualification to engage in combat with this clan brother!

Seeing Jiang Zhiwei give up the idea and become quiet, Jiang Chen chuckled lightly, and once again took steps to leave.

Having just walked out of the family plaza and away from the crowd,

A voice full of resonant Qi suddenly rang out from behind: "Chen'er."

Jiang Chen stopped in his tracks and turned to look.

Seeing that the Grand Elder had come in person, he immediately cupped his fists and bowed: "Greetings, Grand Elder!"

These past days, the Grand Elder had often been kept busy handling the many affairs within the clan.

Therefore, everyone held him in deep respect and dared not show the slightest discourtesy!

Jiang Hongguang nodded, waved his great hand, and immediately took three Marrow-Washing Pills from his Purple Mansion space, placing them into Jiang Chen's hands.

"What is this for?"

Jiang Chen took the Marrow-Washing Pills in bewilderment, feeling a wave of puzzlement.

By now, the Marrow-Washing Pills had long lost their effect on him, so why would the Grand Elder suddenly give such a thing to him?

Jiang Hongguang extended his right hand, stroked his greying beard, and smiled: "The Clan Chief has just issued an order today, commanding you to return to Wudan City for a trip and bestow this item upon City Lord Ding..."

Along with the Grand Elder's unhurried explanation.

Jiang Chen gradually came to learn the whole story.

Upon hearing of the many efforts City Lord Ding had made in order to climb up to their clan.

Jiang Chen could not help but laugh along as well.

He had never expected that the once face-loving City Lord Ding would now have become like this.

However, since coming to Cangwu Mountain.

His old home of Wudan City, he had not gone back to visit for several months now.

Now, he could go back and take a look, stroll around a bit, and relax his mind.

Moreover, this was still an order issued by the Clan Chief he respected most in his heart.

No matter how he looked at it, there was no reason to refuse.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen immediately stored the three Marrow-Washing Pills into his Purple Mansion space.

Right after, he faced the Grand Elder, cupped his fists, and replied: "Jiang Chen accepts the order!"

The second day.

Early morning.

Jiang Chen set out early in the morning, leaving Cangwu Mountain, and flew toward Wudan City.

With the formidable cultivation base of the Sea of Yuan realm, his flying speed could be called extremely fast!
