Chapter 175: The Tenth Prince of the Tianyu Dynasty: Tian Zeyan

"... Is it not obvious?" Jiang Xun said helplessly, then whispered: "It's me, Jiang Xun."

"You!" Cang Xingling's eyes went wide upon hearing this.

This is that old man!?

This is that old man who leaned on a cane, couldn't even straighten his waist, had a face full of wrinkles and a white beard, and looked as if he would fall over in a breeze!?

"Tian Zeyan, you've finally arrived, let's go quickly." After coming to her senses, Cang Xingling said hurriedly, specifically raising her voice when she said "Tian Zeyan."

On one hand, it was to remind Jiang Xun of his current identity; on the other, it was to let everyone around hear this name.

Jiang Xun was a bit puzzled after hearing this. Tian Zeyan? The surname Tian, is he from the Tianyu Dynasty?

However, he still followed Cang Xingling and left the place.

At the same time, the two communicated via voice transmission: "Tian Zeyan, the Tenth Prince of the Tianyu Dynasty, this is your current identity, do you understand?"

"Why is it the identity of the Tianyu Dynasty?"

"Your appearance doesn't look like someone from the Canghe Dynasty."

"That's true..." Jiang Xun nodded: "Didn't Tian Yueling not marry into your family? Why are your relations still quite good?"

"That's a long story. Originally, the marriage was still going to happen, but my second brother received a summons from Tianwai Island and came back, so the engagement was temporarily postponed. The two countries are now in a state of cooperation, and plus, there happened to be a suitable candidate, otherwise we wouldn't have sought them out."

"This person, Tian Zeyan, rarely shows his face. He is the youngest prince of the Tianyu Dynasty. Externally, it is said that he has always been in seclusion practicing, but in reality, Tian Zeyan is physically frail and struggles even to stand up and walk, so he has never left the Imperial Palace. There are some rumors about this in the outside world."

"They agreed to let you use the identity of Tian Zeyan also to break this rumor, to create the image of a genius prince who is only eighteen, has been in seclusion for ten years, and has attained the Spirit Transformation Stage, so that the Tianyu Dynasty receives attention."

"In other words, for this Top Ranking Challenge, whether I win or lose doesn't matter to the Tianyu Dynasty; they just need people to believe they have an eighteen-year-old in the Spirit Transformation Stage?" Jiang Xun nodded.

"That's the meaning." Cang Xingling also nodded: "Apart from you, me, my second brother, and the Tianyu Holy Emperor, no one else knows about this, so you must hide your identity well and not let anyone see through it."

"Fine, I understand." Jiang Xun nodded: "Then what about afterwards? If I successfully enter the Inner Sect and finish the Top Ranking Challenge, how do I leave? If I leave right after joining, it won't be easy for the Tianyu Dynasty to explain, right?"

"Just leave directly. Tianwai Island disciples can leave freely at any time, just like me. Didn't I stay in the Imperial Palace for quite a while some time ago? Unless it's a mandatory assembly like this time, you don't have to come if you don't want to."

Cang Xingling explained.

"That's quite free." Jiang Xun nodded.

"I already returned three days ago. You were right, Tianwai Island is indeed going to take action against the Lingerie-Sect, but since the Lingerie-Sect has already moved away from Lingxiao Mountain, the disciples' primary mission now is to find the location of the Lingerie-Sect."

Cang Xingling continued.

By this time, the two had already left the most bustling area. After leaving the market, in front of them was an incomparably vast plaza. Directly in front of the plaza was a majestic building, over forty stories high and about two thousand meters wide.

Just looking at it from this far away, those with megalophobia would likely be unable to handle it.

"This building is called Tian Wai Lou; the Inner Sect Disciples and high-level members of Tianwai Island all live here." Away from the crowd, Cang Xingling spoke up.

"Such a huge building... are there many royals?"

Jiang Xun couldn't help but ask.

"Of course not, there are also maids, guards, protectors, attendants, and so on inside."

Cang Xingling laughed.

"I see. Then since you aren't an Inner Sect Disciple, you don't have the qualifications to go in?"

"Mm." Cang Xingling nodded: "Outer Sect Disciples all live in the courtyards scattered behind this building. If you can successfully join Tianwai Island and become my second brother's junior brother, someone will be specifically assigned to arrange a room for you in Tian Wai Lou."

"Then what are we going to do now?" Jiang Xun nodded and asked.

"First go to my courtyard. My brother will bring his master over to let her see your Spirit Root and talent, then decide whether to take you in. If she doesn't, you can just leave."

Cang Xingling said while leading the way.

"No problem." Jiang Xun curled his lips and nodded.

He was very satisfied with his current Spirit Root.

Since waking up from that coma, Jiang Xun could truly be said to have been reborn.

The Mixed Spiritual Root was completely burned away. After the Ice Spirit Essence Blood and Fire God Essence Blood in his body collided with full force, unexpectedly, they fused, forming an Ice Flame within Jiang Xun's body, transforming Jiang Xun's Spirit Root into the world's one-and-only Ice Flame Spirit Root.

The so-called Ice Flame is a flame possessing an extremely low temperature. This kind of flame can freeze everything, and when attacking, it also carries the burning damage of fire, causing double strikes to the opponent.

Moreover, because of the perfect fusion, Jiang Xun's cultivation speed was also at least ten times faster than his former Mixed Spiritual Root.

With this Spirit Root of Jiang Xun's, let alone Cang Xingyan's master, even a Supreme would be unable to put it down.

For Jiang Xun, the biggest problem now was the cultivation technique.

This is Tianwai Island, after all; the Lingerie-Sect's techniques and the Heavenly Net Soul-Urging must absolutely not be used.

The Ice Flame had also just fused into his body and he hadn't even fully mastered it.

Although relying on the Nine Heavens Reversal Robe, Jiang Xun could reflect all damage below the Void Refinement stage, but if Jiang Xun fought his way through, would he only use reflection? He would certainly still need to make moves.

"Why don't we fly?" Jiang Xun asked, looking at Cang Xingling who was strolling in front.

"To let more people notice you, of course. How can you attract attention if you fly there?" Cang Xingling laughed.

"..." Jiang Xun nodded helplessly. Isn't this like a monkey in a zoo...

After walking for about the time it takes to burn an incense stick, the news that a Tenth Prince of the Tianyu Dynasty, the peerlessly handsome Tian Zeyan, had come to Tianwai Island spread throughout Tianwai Island.

Jiang Xun and Cang Xingling also arrived at the courtyard where Cang Xingling lived.

The courtyard was not large, with only two rooms: one was Cang Xingling's, and one was for a maid, but Cang Xingling seemed not to have a maid and lived alone.

"Sit. I don't have tea, fruit, or snacks here because I don't eat them. Do you want to drink some water?" Cang Xingling led Jiang Xun into the room and laughed.

"No thanks." Jiang Xun shook his head, catching the fragrance in the room.

Cang Xingling's room had a dining table, a vanity, a bed, and a bookshelf; it was also very simple. The entire room was permeated with a young girl's scent, a smell Jiang Xun was all too familiar with.

"I didn't expect you to be quite handsome after becoming younger?" Cang Xingling was in the Western Regions and was relatively more bold; she sat next to Jiang Xun, looked at Jiang Xun's face unscrupulously, laughed, and even reached out to pinch it.

"What are you pinching for? Could this face of mine be fake?" Jiang Xun laughed helplessly.
