Chapter 244: Jiang Daoxuan Is the White-Robed Sword Marquis

Originally, Jiang Zhiwei comprehending Sword Intent a few days ago, and her sword dao aptitude even strengthening to an unbelievable degree, was already shocking enough.

But now, only three days have passed, and she has actually awakened a special constitution.

One tremendous change after another left Gu Xingjian shocked again and again, gradually falling into numbness.

And at this moment.

Strands of Innate Sword Qi flowed from within Jiang Zhiwei's limbs and bones, shedding impurities from her body and eliminating all hidden ailments!

Very soon, the qi and blood within her also surged wildly, madly nourishing the bones throughout her body!

In merely several dozen breaths, she broke through several minor realms in succession, ultimately crossing the Bone-Forging Realm and reaching the Post-Heaven Realm, First Layer!

This sudden change left Jiang Zhiwei herself utterly astonished, completely unable to make heads or tails of it.

Just as her heart was filled with doubt.

For some unknown reason, that peerlessly elegant figure in white suddenly surfaced within her mind.

Could it be... this is also related to the Clan Chief?

Jiang Zhiwei's eyes flickered, and she instantly realized this possibility.

After all, in over ten years, she had never seen her body undergo any strange changes.

But after meeting the Clan Chief just once, only three days had passed before the present scene unfolded.

There must be a connection between the two!

The more Jiang Zhiwei thought about it, the more possible it seemed!

And at this moment, Gu Xingjian's voice suddenly came through: "How do you feel now?"

Jiang Zhiwei's thoughts were interrupted. She silently lowered her head, clenched her fists, and felt the tremendous power coursing within her body.

A faint smile quietly appeared at the corner of her mouth: "I feel... truly better than ever before..."

At this moment, she felt that her comprehension of the sword dao had become terrifyingly sharp, far surpassing the past!

On the other side.

At the border between Tiandou Prefecture and Shanhai Prefecture.

Jiang Daoyun flew across the sky.

In his left hand he carried Jiang Yi, in his right hand Jiang Hao.

Yuan Force surged around his body, clinging to the two of them, shielding them from outside influences.

Seeing that Tiandou Prefecture drew ever nearer, a look of joy appeared on his face.

But just then, sensing movement behind him, his brow suddenly furrowed.

He turned his head to look.

He saw several figures pursuing him, furiously cursing: "Yun Dao, you damned bastard, how dare you take advantage of our unpreparedness to steal our Changtiao Sect's supreme treasure — give us your life!"

Jiang Daoyun curled his lip: "Truly a bunch of stubborn leeches, can't shake you off even now. But you want me to spit out something already in my mouth? What a fool's dream!"

As his words fell, Yuan Force erupted!

An Entry-level saber intent surged madly, condensing into an incomparably massive illusory saber shadow that came slashing down, making everyone shudder in fright and hurriedly defend!

Several breaths later, when they came to their senses and looked around, they finally discovered Jiang Daoyun had already vanished without a trace!

At this sight, they were filled with grief and fury, and could not help but howl toward the heavens: "Yun Dao, our Changtiao Sect will never coexist with you!"

And at this moment, Jiang Daoyun had successfully carried Jiang Yi and Jiang Hao through Shanhai Prefecture and set foot on the border of Tiandou Prefecture!

During these past days, they had weathered many dangerous situations, but fortunately each time, thanks to various coincidences, they had ultimately turned peril into safety.

And they had obtained a large amount of resources, causing him to already break through to the Yuanhai Realm, Second Layer cultivation base.

He had also broken through in his saber dao cultivation, successfully comprehending Entry-level saber intent!

Thinking of the pile of treasures stored within the Purple Mansion space.

Jiang Daoyun smiled.

Having been away from home so long, since he was going back, he naturally couldn't return empty-handed — he had to bring gifts back for Yan'er.

Finally, he gazed into the distance, his pupils seemingly reflecting the scene of his homeland.

Xuancheng... I'll be back very soon.

Several days later.

As the commanders under the Prefecture Lord spread the news.

Many Star Wheel and Moon Wheel-level factions also came to learn of the situation one after another.

They learned that the one who had annihilated the Tang family of Tiandou back then was named: Jiang Daoxuan!

Seeing such a heaven-defying prodigy suddenly appear out of nowhere within Tiandou Prefecture.

From ordinary folk below to Moon Wheel cultivators above, none failed to feel utterly astonished!

At this moment.

Within the Qingshan Sect, in the sect's great hall.

"Wudan City? Strange — how could such a remote, impoverished place give birth to a freak like the White-Robed Sword Marquis?"

The Qingshan Sect Master felt exceedingly puzzled.

The surrounding Elders all felt the same.

In their eyes, for a small place like Wudan City to give birth to even a single Purple Mansion cultivator was already no easy feat.

A Yuanhai Realm cultivator would be a once-in-a-century occurrence.

As for a Star Wheel Realm True Person, it was virtually impossible.

Under such circumstances, how could the White-Robed Sword Marquis who slew Tang Feizhang possibly have come out of a small place like Wudan City?

Even if one were born there by sheer luck, it would surely have exhausted that land's fortune accumulated over millions of years, wouldn't it?

Just as all the Elders found it utterly inconceivable.

In the corner.

A man sat pale-faced, trembling in terror.

This man was none other than Xu Gu, who had once blustered wildly at the Jiang family, then slapped himself thirty times before slinking away in shame.

After leaving Wudan City, concerned for his face, he never reported anything about the Jiang family to his sect.

He had thought he would never again have any connection with this strange Jiang family in his lifetime.

Yet, only a few months passed before he learned news of them from his own sect lord.

Especially when he learned that the White-Clothed Sword Marquis, whose fame shook every top power in Tiandou Prefecture and whose strength ranked among the top five in Tiandou Prefecture, was none other than the former Jiang clan patriarch, Jiang Daoxuan.

Xu Gu was struck so dumb with terror he swallowed hard.

His back was soaked through with cold sweat.

Only now did he realize how lucky he had been to escape the Jiang family unscathed, how he had narrowly snatched his life back—his fortune was boundless!

And how wise his earlier restraint had truly been!

If he had been unable to bear this humiliation and reported the matter to his sect,

wouldn't the entire Qingshan Sect have been wiped out months before the Tang family?

After all, his own ancestral elder's strength paled far beyond that of the Tang family's ancestral elder.

At that moment, he suddenly understood.

Why the two young Jiangs had shown no interest in his recruitment.

It was because they knew their own depth, and thus remained utterly unmoved by his overtures.

Thinking back to the words he had spoken before the Jiang patriarch,

Xu Gu broke out in another cold sweat.

Now he realized—he had wandered back and forth at the gates of death, completely unaware.

Thank the Jiang patriarch, my lord, for your great tolerance—you did not slap me to death.

Xu Gu forced down his inner terror.

Then he raised his head and glanced nervously around.
