Chapter 280
However.
What made Jiang Chen somewhat helpless was that for the entire morning, not a single person came to challenge the pavilion.
Could it be that they were all scared off by the questions he posed?
Standing in front of the window, looking at the bustling street below, Jiang Chen thought to himself.
The reason he wanted to use brain teasers as the condition for challenging the ninth floor of the Ascension Pavilion at the beginning.
Was firstly because very few people could think of the answers to such questions.
And secondly because he only had the strength of a martial artist at the time.
So he had no choice but to come up with this method.
But judging from the current situation, those challengers seemed to have really been scared off.
When Xie Yanshu left just now.
He had also mentioned to Jiang Chen that not many people had come to challenge the pavilion in the last few days.
Thinking about it, that was also true.
Even if these people didn't come to the ninth floor of the Ascension Pavilion, they already knew the question for the ninth floor, so it was normal for them not to come and challenge it until they thought of the answer.
But if that was the case.
How was he supposed to get system rewards?
Thinking of this.
Jiang Chen began to ponder.
Continuing like this was not a solution.
Of course.
Jiang Chen didn't plan to change the rules immediately; after all, changing the rules all the time wasn't very good, and he planned to wait until the gambling den had been open for a while.
Moreover.
Jiang Chen believed.
Even without changing the rules, those who were meant to challenge the Ascension Pavilion would still come.
Because before returning from the Great Ming Dynasty, Jiang Chen had already ordered Dongfang Bubai and Yao Yue to instruct their subordinates to quietly spread the news that Snow Moon City really had a divine doctor.
With the help of the Sun Moon Divine Sect and the Moving Flower Palace disciples.
Jiang Chen believed that quite a few people would be tempted.
After all, these two sects were among the best in the Great Ming Dynasty.
And it was actually very simple for those in the Great Ming Jianghu to verify whether this news was true or false.
They just needed to go to the Sun Moon Divine Sect to see if Ren Woxing had recovered his cultivation.
After all, the news that Ren Woxing had practiced the Star-Sucking Technique and gone into Qi deviation had long since spread throughout the Great Ming Jianghu.
So as long as they were given some time.
Jiang Chen believed that quite a few people would come to Snow Moon City.
What's more.
In this Snow Moon City, there were also the two big shots, Dongfang Bubai and Yao Yue, who had promised Jiang Chen they would come to challenge the pavilion.
If there were no accidents.
The rewards they provided for him shouldn't be much worse than the Sword Immortal's, and might even be better.
Especially Yao Yue.
She was someone who could break through to the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm at any time.
In terms of realm alone, Yao Yue was even higher than the Sword Immortal had been at the time.
As for strength.
Jiang Chen estimated that the Sword Immortal was still stronger.
After all, the Jade Technique was strong in overcoming the strong with the weak, and it was mainly a war of attrition; in terms of explosive power, it could only be considered average.
And the Sword Immortal's Boundless Sword and Great Dragon Elephant Power were both powerful killing techniques.
Moreover, the cultivation method the Sword Immortal practiced could also be considered a Daoist method, so in terms of moves and means, it was not something Yao Yue could compare to.
However.
These could all be made up for slowly later.
Jiang Chen planned to teach Yao Yue the Sword Control Technique and the Great Wilderness Imprisoning Heaven Finger once she broke through to the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm.
As for the Great River Sword Intent.
It would depend on whether she wanted to learn it.
Jiang Chen had never been stingy with his own women.
Evening.
Just as the Ascension Pavilion was about to close, the three little girls ran to the ninth floor of the Ascension Pavilion again.
Qu Feiyan picked up the ancient zither on the table and looked at Jiang Chen: "Big Brother, are you going back with us?"
"Hmm, let's go together."
Jiang Chen nodded with a smile.
In the afternoon, he had finally waited for two challengers.
Although the rewards provided were average, at least it let Jiang Chen know that among those who came to Snow Moon City for the first time, there would still be some who would come to challenge the pavilion.
This also made Jiang Chen's idea of building Snow Moon City into the true number one Jianghu city in the world even more firm.
As long as more people came to Snow Moon City.
Naturally, some would come to challenge the Ascension Pavilion.
A moment later.
Jiang Chen and Sangsang and the others returned to the courtyard by the Erhai Lake.
With Jiang Chen's return.
The women tacitly stayed in his courtyard.
However.
What Jiang Chen didn't expect was.
In just one day, quite a few peach trees and other flowering trees had been added to his courtyard.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but look at Yao Yue.
Seeing Jiang Chen looking at her, Yao Yue smiled gently: "Anyway, there was nothing to do during the day, so I went to the mountain and transplanted some over."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
The previous courtyard.
Had been planted full of various camellias and peach trees by Yao Yue.
Now that they had moved to his courtyard, she still hadn't been idle.
Looking around.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but look at Sangsang with a smile: "It looks like it won't be long before Sangsang doesn't need to go to Mount Cang to pick camellias anymore."
Hearing Jiang Chen's words.
Yao Yue's face turned red in a flash.
She really liked all kinds of flowers; otherwise, she wouldn't have had the Moving Flower Palace disciples plant the entire Embroidery Jade Valley with flowers.
Seeing Yao Yue's appearance.
Jiang Chen didn't tease her anymore, so he asked with a smile: "Where is Tian Nvrui?"
"She is in the kitchen helping Huang Rong cook."
"Sangsang, you three help water these flowers together."
Jiang Chen nodded, said a word to Sangsang and the others, and then looked at Yao Yue, smiling slightly: "With these flowers and trees in the courtyard, it really looks much better."
After saying this.
Without waiting for Yao Yue to speak, he walked directly toward the kitchen.
"Little Junior Brother!"
Seeing Jiang Chen come over, Sikong Qianluo, who was making beggar's chicken with Huang Rong, shouted: "Come and see how my beggar's chicken turned out?!"
Looking at the five beggar's chickens wrapped in mud balls, Jiang Chen was a bit speechless.
"They all look the same, which one did you make?" ===== CHAPTER 281 =====
