Chapter 202
Although Abbess Miejue could not be counted as a bad person, her strong-willed personality and her judgment of righteousness and evil were indeed very easy to make people feel disgusted.
And when Miejue saw Jiang Chen, she was also stunned.
Clearly, she had not expected this Fourth City Lord of Snow Moon City to be so young.
Thinking of this,
Abbess Miejue could not help but glance at Zhou Zhou Zhiruo, who was standing beside Jiang Chen.
No wonder her beloved disciple was biased toward the other party when she was telling her about the events on Ice Fire Island just now.
"I heard from my disciple that you want my Mount Emei Sect's Heaven-Reliant Sword?"
Abbess Miejue looked at Jiang Chen and said lightly: "Although I don't know how you learned the secret of the Heaven-Reliant Sword, since you already know it, you must also be clear about the importance of the Heaven-Reliant Sword to my Mount Emei Sect."
Even though she had already learned Jiang Chen's identity from Zhou Zhou Zhiruo and knew that the other party's strength was far beyond what she could compare to.
But because it concerned the future of the Mount Emei Sect, Abbess Miejue still wanted to hear Jiang Chen make a promise in person.
Otherwise.
Unless she exhausted all the disciples of the Mount Emei Sect, it would be absolutely impossible for her to let Jiang Chen take the Heaven-Reliant Sword away from her just like that.
Regarding Abbess Miejue's attitude,
Jiang Chen knew this was the other party's personality, so he didn't blame her.
He smiled lightly and said: "Since I said I would leave the Nine Yin Manual inside the Heaven-Reliant Sword for you, I will naturally keep my word; although the Nine Yin Manual might be very precious in your eyes, in my view, it's just so-so."
"However, while I give the Nine Yin Manual to your Mount Emei Sect, I also hope that your Mount Emei Sect can do me a favor."
Jiang Chen looked at Abbess Miejue with a smile: "I am currently preparing to build Snow Moon City into the number one city in the world, and my Snow Moon City's gambling house is just about to open, so I would like you to bring a few disciples to help me liven up the place."
Miejue frowned slightly upon hearing this: "I am the dignified leader of the Mount Emei Sect, and you want me to go to a gambling house?"
"That's not necessary; you just need to go to my Snow Moon City and play for two days."
Jiang Chen shook his head and said with a smile: "However, if possible, it would be even better if the leader could go and challenge the Heaven-Ascending Pavilion of Snow Moon City; as for the gambling house, that depends entirely on the leader's own wishes."
"Is that the legendary Heaven-Ascending Pavilion where the Snow Moon City Lord personally guards the fifteenth floor?"
As the leader of the Mount Emei Sect,
Plus the fact that news about Snow Moon City of the Northern Li Dynasty had been coming over from time to time recently.
Abbess Miejue already had a certain understanding of Snow Moon City.
Immediately after,
She nodded lightly and said: "That's no problem; being able to witness the experts of the Northern Li Dynasty is also beneficial for me. Of course, all of this will have to wait until my Mount Emei Sect obtains the Nine Yin Manual."
"I hope you can understand this point."
Abbess Miejue glanced at Zhou Zhou Zhiruo before continuing:
"My disciple has been by my side for many years and has had little contact with people, so she is relatively simple, but I am different; everything I do is for the sake of the Mount Emei Sect's interests. Before confirming that you will hand over the Nine Yin Manual to me, it is impossible for me to take the Heaven-Reliant Sword away from the Mount Emei Sect, let alone take it to another dynasty."
Seeing that her thoughts seemed to have been discovered by her Master.
Zhou Zhou Zhiruo's face flushed red.
And Jiang Chen smiled lightly: "What I said to Miss Zhou before is naturally true."
As his voice fell,
Jiang Chen directly took out the Nine Yin Manual he had copied in the Ancient Tomb and flicked it lightly.
The paper with the Nine Yin Manual on it floated straight toward Abbess Miejue.
Seeing Jiang Chen's action,
Abbess Miejue was stunned, not understanding what the other party wanted to show her.
However, she still reached out to catch it and subconsciously looked at the content on the paper.
The Nine Yin Manual on the paper seemed to have a kind of magic, causing Abbess Miejue's expression to change constantly.
From initial indifference, to subsequent astonishment, and finally to shock and inexplicable horror.
"This is the Nine Yin Manual?!"
A long time later,
Abbess Miejue finally raised her head with difficulty, looking at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
Although she had never seen the Nine Yin Manual, the internal cultivation method recorded on the paper the other party handed over was many times more profound and mysterious than her Mount Emei Sect's Nine Yang Skill?
One must know that the Nine Yang Skill was created through the Nine Yin Manual.
Although it was not as good as the real Nine Yang Divine Art, it was still more powerful than most internal cultivation methods in the Jianghu.
Yet now,
Just by taking a glance at the internal cultivation method on the paper, without even circulating her internal energy, she had many insights surging into her heart.
Abbess Miejue believed.
If she practiced according to the internal cultivation method in her hand, she would even have the confidence to reach the Great Free and Unfettered Realm, which had previously been out of reach, in a short period of time!
Before Jiang Chen could speak.
Abbess Miejue couldn't help but ask: "Since you already have the Nine Yin Manual, why do you still want my Mount Emei Sect's Heaven-Reliant Sword?"
At this moment.
What Abbess Miejue couldn't understand was.
The other party clearly already had the Nine Yin Manual, so why did they run thousands of miles from the Northern Li Dynasty to Ice Fire Island and her Mount Mount Emei?
Could it be that the other party was just for these two weapons?
However,
As soon as this thought appeared, she denied it.
With her cultivation at this realm, she had long understood that one's own strength was the foundation, and no matter how powerful a weapon was, it could only be used as an auxiliary means.
Just like many people in the martial arts world who didn't even use weapons.
In Abbess Miejue's view.
If there was no Nine Yin Manual inside the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber, then no matter how miraculous these two weapons were rumored to be, they would be far from the value of the Nine Yin Manual.
This point.
She saw more clearly than other sects, because the Heaven-Reliant Sword was in her hands!
"This matter is very simple to explain, and in fact, I have already said it before."
Hearing Abbess Miejue's words.
Jiang Chen smiled lightly: "Because I want to build Snow Moon City into the number one Jianghu city in the world, and the reason I want the Heaven-Reliant Sword and the Dragon-Slaying Saber is just to utilize their fame."
"Otherwise, whether it's these two weapons or the Nine Yin Manual and the Wu Mu Legacy Book hidden inside them, they might be very important in your eyes, but in my view, they are just so-so."
After speaking,
Jiang Chen looked at Abbess Miejue and said with a smile: "Speaking of this, I think you should already understand that it won't be long before the news of me obtaining the Heaven-Reliant Sword from the Mount Emei Sect spreads throughout the Great Ming Jianghu."
Abbess Miejue nodded lightly upon hearing this.
Because not many people knew that the Heaven-Reliant Sword was in the Mount Emei Sect.
So when this news spread, it would invisibly bring unnecessary trouble to the Mount Emei Sect.
For example, powers like the Shaolin Sect and the Kunlun Sect would inevitably come to the Mount Emei Sect to demand an explanation.
After all, just a short while ago.
In order to obtain the Dragon-Slaying Saber, which was as famous as the Heaven-Reliant Sword,
Their Mount Emei Sect was still discussing with these sects how to go to Mount Wudang to force out the whereabouts of the Golden-Haired Lion King Xie Xun.
Yet now,
If they let them know that the Heaven-Reliant Sword had always been in the hands of the Mount Emei Sect, if it wasn't handled well, the Mount Emei Sect's fate would definitely be very miserable.
The only thing to be fortunate about now is.
The Heaven-Reliant Sword is no longer in the hands of the Mount Emei Sect, but in Snow Moon City of the Northern Li Dynasty.
Yes.
In Abbess Miejue's eyes.
The Heaven-Reliant Sword no longer belonged to her, but to Jiang Chen.
"By the way, what I gave you just now is only the first volume of the Nine Yin Manual, which is the internal cultivation method."
Jiang Chen looked at Abbess Miejue and smiled slightly: "As for the second volume of the Nine Yin Manual, I will have to wait until I return to Snow Moon City and after some time before I can give it to you."
"It doesn't matter."
