Chapter 211: Speaking the Truth While Reluctant to Let Go of Si Yuyan

"Sigh." Jun Tianling let out a sigh and stopped speaking.

"What's the situation with you two?" Jiang Xun couldn't help but ask.

"It's about last time. Ever since you said she might have feelings for me, I've been keeping an eye on it. Later, I confirmed it—she really does have feelings for me. So I thought, I'll craft a physical body for her and let her leave my side."

Jun Tianling said helplessly.

"Uh... don't you think that if she's just a spirit, she can only drool while looking at you, but if she has a physical body, she might start getting handsy with you?"

"For example, sneaking into your arms while you're asleep, or jumping into the bathtub to take advantage of you while you're bathing."

As Jiang Xun said this, he licked the corner of his mouth; in truth, these were all things he wanted to do.

After all, Jun Tianling was a rare beauty.

"I won't let her do that. Once the physical body is crafted, I'll drive her away immediately," Jun Tianling said at once.

"What if she doesn't leave?"

"If she doesn't leave, I will," Jun Tianling said decisively, then a thought flashed through her mind: "Hey, do you want to be my Artifact Spirit?"

"I'm interested in being your husband, but I'll pass on being an Artifact Spirit."

Jiang Xun laughed.

"Be my husband? You? A little brother in the Transformation God Realm—wait until you become a Saint before I consider it," Jun Tianling mocked.

"I'll work hard. Don't go back on your word when I reach the Saint realm," Jiang Xun felt his whole body surging with adrenaline upon hearing this.

To be honest, if it weren't for the Soul Suppressor and the system, given Jiang Xun's current strength, let alone getting a Saint to do things for him, he wouldn't even have the chance to say a single word to a Saint.

"Then you'd better hurry. In case I take a fancy to some other Saint in the meantime, or get picked by a Supreme, I won't wait for you," Jun Tianling laughed.

"Have you heard of the Zhongli Clan?" Jiang Xun asked, simply changing the subject.

"The Zhongli Clan? Isn't that the North Stranger Dragon Clan?" Jun Tianling nodded: "Why ask about this all of a sudden?"

"North Stranger? Does the Northern Wasteland riot have anything to do with the Zhongli Clan?" Jiang Xun asked.

"That goes without saying," Jun Tianling nodded: "Back then, the Demon Race lived in the region further north of the Northern Wasteland. That area was called the North Stranger, and the Zhongli Dragon Clan was the Ancient Demon Race responsible for leading the Ten Great Demon Kings."

"Ever since the Zhongli Dragon Clan could no longer breed male dragons, the Zhongli Dragon Clan began to decline gradually. Eight of the Ten Great Demon Kings began to rebel, overthrowing the rule of the Zhongli Dragon Clan, and subsequently began to invade the Northern Wasteland."

"Sigh, if the North Stranger Dragon Clan were still around, the Northern Wasteland surely wouldn't have developed into what it is today."

Jun Tianling sighed deeply.

"Was it the Snake Clan that didn't rebel?"

"Yes," Si Yuyan nodded: "The Snake Clan of the Sikong Clan and the Mermaid Clan of the Shenmu Clan."

"Mermaid Clan?" Jiang Xun was stunned upon hearing this: "I've never heard of any Mermaid Clan."

"The number of the Mermaid Clan is extremely scarce. Let alone you, I've only seen them once, when I was very young. At that time, my Spirit Root was very poor, so my Imperial Father went through a lot of trouble to find the Zhongli Clan to conduct a trade, letting the mermaids of the Shenmu Clan change my Spirit Root."

"Change your Spirit Root?"

"Yes, the Mermaid Clan can use their abilities, combined with the necessary essence blood or Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, to perfectly modify a person's Spirit Root," Jun Tianling nodded.

"I see," Jiang Xun nodded: "Then do you know what the situation in the Northern Wasteland is like now?"

"I don't know. I originally planned to go back to the Northern Wasteland to see for myself after letting Si Yuyan leave. It's been over a hundred years since I left the Northern Wasteland."

When Jun Tianling left the Northern Wasteland, she was only a Nascent Soul cultivator. In a mere twenty-plus years, she became a Saint, and then stayed in Dongming to consolidate her strength. With this talent, one probably couldn't find a second person like her in the whole world.

"Then after handling the matters of the Tang Ming Dynasty, I'll go over with you to take a look. In case there's some accident, I can help you," Jiang Xun thought for a moment and said.

According to previous experience, no matter how long he stayed here, when he returned to his own timeline, it should still be the time he left, with a difference of no more than three hours, so it wouldn't delay the Top Ranking Challenge.

"That works too," Jun Tianling nodded.

It must be said, Saints fly fast. In the time it took to exchange a few words, the two had already arrived at the nearest Teleportation Array and headed to the capital of the Tang Ming Dynasty: Qingming City.

Si Yuyan also immediately hid back into the sword.

Jun Tianling took out a black robe to wear, covering her figure, and put on a hood to block her face.

"Shy? Are you too embarrassed to let people see you when you're so beautiful?" Jiang Xun laughed when he saw this.

"There are too many lecherous scoundrels like you. Sometimes being too beautiful is also a trouble. Doing this is to reduce unnecessary trouble," Jun Tianling responded proudly, while stepping off the Teleportation Array.

"It's curfew time now. You must find an inn to stay in immediately. If you run into patrol soldiers, you'll be responsible for the consequences."

The guard looked at Jun Tianling and said.

Jun Tianling nodded and left directly.

"This is Qingming City, where the Tang Ming Dynasty is located. To see people from the Tang Ming Dynasty, we have to go into the Imperial Palace, or try our luck outside. Which one do you think?"

Jun Tianling asked while walking.

At this moment, there wasn't a single person on the street; Jun Tianling was walking on the street like a wandering ghost.

"Let's go straight into the Imperial Palace. The Tang Ming Dynasty shouldn't have any Saints right now."

Jiang Xun thought for a moment and said.

"No Saints? I remember the Tang Ming Dynasty has Saints," Jun Tianling said with a slight frown.

For these years, she had been living alone in a cave and knew nothing about what was happening outside. Naturally, she didn't know about the disappearance of the Holy Emperor Tang Qingming of the Tang Ming Dynasty, nor did she know that the Tang Ming Dynasty had already become a vassal of the Lingyun Dynasty.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xun was in a dilemma.

Should he tell her that the person she killed was Tang Ying's mother?

If he told her, then she wouldn't let Si Yuyan come into contact with Tang Ying, right?

And if Si Yuyan didn't come into contact with Tang Ying, would everything in the future change?

The Void Sect wouldn't exist? Si Yuyan wouldn't stay at the Void Sect to meet him, nor would she become his Artifact Spirit?

But in that case, the mysteries between Si Yuyan, Jun Tianling, and Tang Ying in the future wouldn't be left behind.

However, truthfully, Jiang Xun really couldn't bear to let Si Yuyan leave right now.

"Speak up," seeing Jiang Xun not speaking, Jun Tianling urged.

"In any case, let's just go in," Jiang Xun still couldn't let go of his own little selfish desire and didn't tell the truth.

"Oh." Jun Tianling nodded; in any case, she had nothing to fear.

Even if she truly encountered a Saint, given her current strength, taking a step back, even if she could not win, she could still run away.

"Then you come and take over." As Jun Tianling spoke, she went directly into her divine sense, and Jiang Xun did not hesitate, stepping up to take control of Jun Tianling's body.

The moment he opened his eyes, he felt a heavy weight on his body and could not help but reach out to support it: "So heavy."
