Chapter 224: Traveling Ten Thousand Miles to the Lingerie-Sect to Deal with Master

"Your strength is improving very quickly. If you keep going like this, you'll reach the Void Refinement Realm soon; you must find a Supreme Position quickly," Si Yuyan said happily upon seeing this.

"What do you think of Ling Shangtian?" Jiang Xun asked with a smile.

"Hey, don't mess around. We haven't even finished dealing with the Tianyu Dynasty, and you want to provoke the Lingyun Dynasty again?" Si Yuyan glared fiercely at Jiang Xun and said.

"I'm just teasing you. There's no rush for the Supreme Position; it will come eventually," Jiang Xun laughed. "I'll practice a bit more to consolidate my foundation."

As Jiang Xun spoke, he continued to sit in meditation and practice until the midnight hour...

A black shadow flew rapidly from the distance, darted into the cave, and knelt on one knee before Jiang Xun. Her face was covered by a black veil, and her hairstyle had changed; it was none other than Tang Zhirou.

"Senior Sister, I've finally managed to speak with you."

Jiang Xun slowly opened his eyes, looked at Tang Zhirou before him, and smiled.

"What do you need me to do?" Tang Zhirou asked.

Her voice was cold and pleasant.

"No need to kneel. Why are you kneeling?" Jiang Xun laughed.

Hearing this, Tang Zhirou stood up.

With the black tight-fitting suit and the wide waistband, her figure was perfectly outlined; she was truly a rare beauty.

"With your strength, Senior Sister, today's chaotic battle should have been easy to win, right?"

Jiang Xun then asked.

"Yes," Tang Zhirou nodded.

"After you win tomorrow, Senior Sister, help me make a request to the Island Master."

"... That is difficult."

"Why? Did Tang Shanhe tell you to make a certain request?"

"It is the Lingyun Dynasty."

"So, to have you help me make a request, I must first help you get rid of the Lingyun Dynasty, is that it?"

"Yes," Tang Zhirou nodded.

"..." Jiang Xun felt helpless upon hearing this; this was troublesome.

Even if he returned to the past now, using Jun Tianling's body, he could not defeat the Lingyun Saint Emperor at his peak back then.

Furthermore, the system could not be used over there.

"Then what is the request you are supposed to make?"

Jiang Xun looked up and asked.

"To not let Tianwai Island move against the Lingerie-Sect."

"What the hell!?"

Jiang Xun jumped up with a start; he literally jumped up.

Tang Zhirou was so startled she took half a step back, feeling confused.

"Ah?" Si Yuyan let out an exclamation.

"Why make such a request?" Realizing he had lost his composure, Jiang Xun quickly collected himself and continued to ask.

"The Lingyun Saint Emperor ordered it; I do not know the reason," Tang Zhirou shook her head and replied.

"This, when were you told to do this?" Jiang Xun hesitated for a moment, then asked.

"Half a month before the Top Ranking Challenge began," Tang Zhirou said.

That was about the time Jiang Xun had just arrived.

"Then, do you know what request Ling Shangtian plans to make?" Jiang Xun continued to ask.

"To let the Tianwai Island Master meet with the Lingyun Saint Emperor."

Tang Zhirou told him everything she knew.

Jiang Xun nodded, then began pacing in the cave, lost in thought with his head lowered.

Why, why on earth, why would the Lingyun Saint Emperor not let Tianwai Island move against the Lingerie-Sect?

As far as Jiang Xun knew, the Lingyun Dynasty and the Lingerie-Sect had absolutely no connection. Although the Lingerie-Sect was located in Dongming, it had never been said to owe allegiance to the Lingyun Dynasty, nor was it a vassal of the Lingyun Dynasty.

"Why don't you ask Ruo Lan?" Si Yuyan suggested.

"Ask Master? Master has no connection to the Lingyun Dynasty," Jiang Xun replied.

"You have to ask her first; otherwise, you have no other leads."

"... Alright," Jiang Xun nodded, then looked at Tang Zhirou: "Swear your allegiance to me, and listen to me forever."

"This..." Tang Zhirou hesitated upon hearing this.

"Do you still want the Tang Ming Dynasty to be saved or not?" Jiang Xun said upon seeing this.

"... I, Tang Zhirou, swear to be forever loyal to..."

"Jiang Xun."

"Ah?" Tang Zhirou was stunned.

"Loyal to Jiang Xun."

"The Lingerie-Sect's..."

"Yes," Jiang Xun nodded, not afraid that Tang Zhirou would resist after learning his true identity; at Void Refining Great Perfection, she was no match for him.

Fortunately, Tang Zhirou only hesitated for a moment before swearing again to listen to Jiang Xun forever.

"Do not tell anyone about today's events; except for you and me, no one can know," Jiang Xun then said, looking at Tang Zhirou.

"Then when will the Tang Ming Dynasty be saved?" Tang Zhirou nodded and then asked.

"We'll see," Jiang Xun waved his hand.

"Ah?" Tang Zhirou was stunned, her eyes wide, and she suddenly realized she had been played.

"You can go back now," Jiang Xun said afterwards.

Although Tang Zhirou wanted to say more, she had already taken an oath and was completely unable to resist Jiang Xun, so she could only leave this place.

Jiang Xun then took out the Wall Mirror Jade Pendant to contact Qin Miaoyin.

"Miaoyin?"

"Yes!"

Qin Miaoyin replied very quickly.

"Go find my Master quickly; I have something to ask her."

Jiang Xun said hurriedly.

"Ruo Elder? Alright, wait for me a moment, I am heading over now."

Qin Miaoyin nodded repeatedly, ran out of her room, and flew toward Ruo Lan's residence, meeting Ruo Lan very quickly.

Because they both knew that if Qin Miaoyin came to find Ruo Lan, it must be because Jiang Xun had an urgent matter, so there would be no obstruction whatsoever.

"What is it?" Ruo Lan was lying on the bed, reclining behind light gauze; her alluring figure made Qin Miaoyin pause in a daze.

"Jiang Xun asked me to come find you, wait a moment..." Qin Miaoyin said as she hurriedly contacted Jiang Xun again: "I have met Ruo Elder."

"Miaoyin, help me ask her if the Lingerie-Sect and the Lingyun Dynasty are collaborating," Jiang Xun said immediately.

Qin Miaoyin nodded and relayed the message.

Ruo Lan nodded: "Yes."

"Why does the Lingyun Dynasty want Tianwai Island to not take action against the Lingerie-Sect?" Jiang Xun asked next, and Qin Miaoyin relayed it again.

"I promised the Lingyun Saint Emperor to marry him as a concubine, and he promised to save the Lingerie-Sect," Ruo Lan said: "You should just stay at Tianwai Island with peace of mind; the resources there are abundant, which is good for you."

After hearing this, a nameless fire rose in Jiang Xun's heart.

He immediately put away the Jade Pendant and flew outward, arriving at the Teleportation Array all the way, teleported directly to Tianji City, and then flew rapidly toward Xuwang Mountain using his Crimson Wings.

"He stopped talking," Qin Miaoyin waited for a moment and, seeing no response, looked up at Ruo Lan and said.

Ruo Lan was stunned upon hearing this, then sat up and walked out from behind the light gauze.

Seeing the stark-naked Ruo Lan, Qin Miaoyin widened her eyes, unable to help but marvel that this figure was too good and the skin too fair and tender, then she still hurriedly lowered her head.

Ruo Lan then began to put on her clothes.

Not long after the clothes were put on, the room door was kicked open with a bang.

The two looked up to see Jiang Xun at the doorway.

This was Ruo Lan's understanding of this disciple of hers.

"I, I will go out first." Seeing Jiang Xun fuming, Qin Miaoyin was very perceptive and hurriedly got up and ran away.

"Back so soon?" Ruo Lan looked at Jiang Xun and smiled; it had not even been a cup of tea's time, it seems this kid had become much stronger again.

"Are you courting death! I am already at Tianwai Island, the Top Ranking Challenge is within reach, tomorrow, or the day after at the latest, I could have saved the Lingerie-Sect, why did you jump out?" Jiang Xun walked toward Ruo Lan and said.
