Chapter 794: The Day of Awakening!

After that, the two chatted idly for a while.

It was only at the moment of parting that Jiang Xuanji suddenly realized.

The other party was not only gravely wounded, but had also been afflicted by an extremely intractable love poison—one that could only be purged through the union of water and fire.

So that very night, he ended up reduced to a tool for detoxifying her.

By the next morning, the other party was already gone, having long since departed.

Only a sound-transmission talisman was left behind.

And today, he suddenly received a message from within that sound-transmission talisman.

It said that after returning to her sect, she was found to be pregnant.

The sect was furious, intending to abort the illegitimate child, and because she was impure—no longer a flawless maiden—they further prepared to cripple her cultivation base and then carry out severe punishment!

Fortunately, with the help of an elder, she managed to escape, and had originally intended to meet him.

At this point, Jiang Xuanji's tone suddenly rose, clearly much more incensed: "That night was a matter of necessity, but I, a man of the Jiang family, dare to take responsibility for my actions! How could I stand by and watch that sect oppress her like this?"

"Not to mention crippling her cultivation base—once her cultivation base is crippled and she is then severely punished, how is that any different from taking her life?!"

"As for the sect behind her, you need not worry either."

"No matter what danger you encounter, just keep this in mind—you are not alone. Behind you stand thousands upon thousands of clansmen, and also the Clan Chief, my lord!"

"A person of the Jiang family should naturally be protected by us Jiang people!"

"So, should you encounter a foe beyond your strength, take out the Cangwu Token and convey the situation to the clan."

Jiang Xuanji nodded: "Understood!"

After speaking, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a warm, gentle smile: "Guardian my lord, you may laugh at me if you will, but long before I came here, I had already thought of a name for my child, not yet born..."
