Chapter 133: Dual Cultivation... Can You Not Kill Me?

After arriving at the Fairy Pavilion, Jiang Xun booked the Yangui Pavilion and waited inside for Jun Tianling to arrive.

It was still early, more than enough time for Jiang Xun to take a nap.

"Why would Jiang Xun come here?"

Little did they know, on the building opposite the Fairy Pavilion, right where the windows of the Yangui Pavilion faced, Ming Ning was standing there.

"He still came... he still went..."

Jun Tianling, inside Ming Ning's Consciousness Sea, sighed.

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand? What 'came' and 'went'?"

Ming Ning was completely confused.

Yesterday, Jun Tianling had told Ming Ning to come to the Fairy Pavilion side, then choose a room to stay in across the way, and also told her to keep an eye on the Yangui Pavilion opposite.

She hadn't expected that she was waiting for someone, and that the person was Jiang Xun.

"Eh?"

Jiang Xun suddenly gave a start and sat up from the bed.

Ming Ning hurriedly hid back behind the window.

Jiang Xun had suddenly realized that Jun Tianling's Storage Ring was currently in his own hands, right?

Later, it had also been in Si Yuyan's hands the whole time.

Could it be that she had long since forgotten about this meeting at the Yangui Pavilion?

"What are you tossing and turning about in the middle of the night?"

Si Yuyan woke up groggily and asked in confusion.

"Have you had any memory recovery? Have you remembered anything?"

Jiang Xun asked.

"No." Si Yuyan shook her head: "Why are you asking me these things for no reason?"

Actually, there were still some, and they were still about being in a relationship with Tang Ying.

"It's nothing, nothing, you go back to sleep." Jiang Xun waved his hand; he really couldn't get a damn thing out of Si Yuyan. She was like an NPC all day long, acting in fits and starts, only knowing how to issue quests to Jiang Xun.

"Is the person you want to see Jiang Xun?"

On the other side, Ming Ning also asked.

"That's right." Jun Tianling nodded.

"Then, shall we go over?"

"No, I just came to confirm something." Jun Tianling shook her head.

"You asked me to protect Jiang Xun, could it be that you're so twisted that you want to kill Jiang Xun with your own hands?" Ming Ning frowned and said.

"Why would you think that? If I wanted to kill him, I would have done it long ago." Jun Tianling laughed helplessly upon hearing this.

"If you hadn't asked me to set up the Formation back then, Jiang Xun would have already been at the Spirit Transformation Stage, and he wouldn't have almost been struck to death by the Heavenly Tribulation. You didn't kill him then, so now, are you up to no good again?"

Ming Ning asked.

At that time, even if Jiang Xun hadn't been fully prepared, with Jiang Xun's many years of cultivation experience and the Dharma Artifacts all over his body, plus Ruo Lan acting as Protector on the side, even if the result had been miserable, Jiang Xun wouldn't have been nearly struck to death.

The problem was the Formation that Jun Tianling had asked Ming Ning to set up in advance.

Jun Tianling had told Ming Ning that this was a Formation that could help Jiang Xun withstand the Heavenly Tribulation, and Ming Ning hadn't thought too much about it and set it up directly.

Unexpectedly, when Jiang Xun was just one step away from completing his Tribulation Transcendence, this Formation actually increased the power of the Heavenly Tribulation, nearly blasting Jiang Xun into ashes.

This made Ming Ning feel very sorry for Jiang Xun, but she couldn't show it.

"Isn't he living perfectly well? Stop worrying so much. I asked you to protect him, so I won't let him die. I have my own reasons for doing things."

Jun Tianling waved her hand and laughed.

This smile was somewhat helpless.

She had originally intended to prevent Jiang Xun from breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Stage, so that even if Jiang Xun went back two thousand years through the Soul Suppressor, she wouldn't be able to extract his Spirit Power from the Spirit Transformation Stage.

And then she wouldn't kill that woman.

And even less would the subsequent events happen.

But she never expected that Jiang Xun would cultivate back to the Spirit Transformation Stage in just one month, which truly stunned Jun Tianling.

She wanted to change that history, but it seemed she hadn't.

Let's look for other opportunities...

Jun Tianling thought to herself.

"We can go back now." Jun Tianling said afterwards.

Ming Ning sighed and flew out of the window while Jiang Xun wasn't paying attention.

Her heart was still in a mess; according to the agreement, Jiang Xun had already broken through to the Spirit Transformation Stage, so what about the re-cultivation she had promised him before...

Does she really have to re-cultivate?

Then what has she been doing for these past thousand years?

Was a thousand years of effort all in vain?

If she re-cultivated this time and couldn't successfully break through to the Nascent Soul, or even the Golden Core, or even the Foundation Establishment, she would probably die of old age, right?

Following this, Jiang Xun waited in the Yangui Pavilion for an entire day, and until the early morning of June 2nd, he still hadn't seen Jun Tianling, so he could only sigh helplessly.

It seemed she really had forgotten.

Or, was she dead?

It was true; besides the deduction Jiang Xun had made earlier, the possibility that the Soul Suppressor, the Storage Ring, and the Void Sect were all in Si Yuyan's hands had another explanation: Jun Tianling was dead.

It was also possible that after Jun Tianling died, Si Yuyan met Tang Ying, and the two became Dao companions.

He could only take it one step at a time; he didn't know when he would go back to two thousand years ago next time.

Based on the experience of the two previous teleports, he would enter Jun Tianling's body when Jun Tianling was near death, but Jun Tianling is now a Saint; as long as he doesn't court death by challenging a Supreme or something, such near-death situations shouldn't happen again.

Not waiting for Jun Tianling, Jiang Xun subsequently returned to the Lingerie-Sect and headed toward Ming Ning's residence.

It was also for the matter of Ming Ning's re-cultivation.

Once he finished handling this matter with Ming Ning, Jiang Xun prepared to make a trip to Tianling City.

"Senior Sister, are you up?"

Jiang Xun landed in Ming Ning's courtyard and called out.

"Senior Sister~ are you there~"

Jiang Xun arrived in front of the room door and called out.

"Don't hide inside and stay silent, I know you're home!"

Jiang Xun patted Ming Ning's room door and shouted.

"What are you shouting for? You won't even give me time to put on clothes?"

Ming Ning was also getting annoyed; she threw down the clothes she was putting on, opened the door, and gave Jiang Xun an eyeful.

"Hey, hey, hey, it's broad daylight, what are you doing? Don't let others see."

Jiang Xun hurriedly covered Ming Ning's chest to keep himself from looking.

"Is this right? Is the place you're covering right?" Si Yuyan was also stunned at the sight.

Ming Ning's face couldn't help but twitch twice, but she didn't say much else.

"Come in."

After saying this, Ming Ning turned and walked into the room.

Jiang Xun's hand, which had been grabbing something like a small watermelon, suddenly felt empty. He followed Ming Ning into the room.

However, the door was not closed; Jiang Xun was afraid Ming Ning would eat him if he closed it.

Ming Ning returned to the bedside to continue putting on her clothes, saying at the same time: "The situation in the Lingerie-Sect is dire right now; I cannot re-cultivate. We will talk about it after this period passes."

"Senior Sister, you really inherited Master's true teachings when it comes to going back on your word," Jiang Xun said upon hearing this. "I risked my life to break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage for your sake."

"Who knows what you, this brat, did to actually go from Nascent Soul Mid-Stage Peak to the Spirit Transformation Stage in just a few days? Would anyone believe it if you told them?" Ming Ning glanced at Jiang Xun and said.

"That's none of your concern; you already promised me, so you can't go back on your word," Jiang Xun said.

"Actually, there is one more method we could try; it might be useful."

Ming Ning looked at Jiang Xun with a serious expression.

"What method?" Jiang Xun nodded and asked.

"You and I perform Dual Cultivation."

"Hiss." Jiang Xun was so scared that he reflexively bolted out the door.

But after ten seconds or so, Jiang Xun came back: "Is it possible to do it without killing me?"
