Chapter 392
Actually,
Jiang Chen didn't care much about who would end up with the two swords, Breaking Army and Azure Sky.
They were just two weapons.
As long as he wanted to, he only needed to spend some time finding materials, and he could forge weapons even more powerful than them with his God-Level Forging Technique.
What Jiang Chen was more curious about was
whether Lei Qianhu had won more or lost more over these three days.
Jiang Chen had already seen the cold poison in Lei Qianhu's body when he was at Lei Family Fort before.
At that time, he knew
that if nothing unexpected happened, Lei Qianhu might not even last through this year.
Don't look at how he seems fine right now.
That's because he hasn't activated his internal energy.
Just like in the original plot,
Lei Qianhu drank the Immortal Mist Dew mixed with Tang Men poison and was fine, but after a battle with Old Master Tang, he could no longer resist the spread of the cold poison in his body, and after simply explaining his affairs, he died.
Actually,
Jiang Chen was incredibly respectful toward this Lei Qianhu who had always guarded the Lei Sect.
Among the Four Heroes of the Lei Sect,
although the other three had experienced many hardships, especially Lei Mengsha, who fell at Falling Thunder Mountain,
no matter what,
all three of them had realized their dreams of roaming the Jianghu.
Only Lei Qianhu,
who also had a Jianghu dream in his heart and was the youngest of the Four Heroes of the Lei Sect, willingly stayed at Lei Family Fort to become the guardian of the Lei Sect.
It could be said that
Lei Qianhu contributed significantly to the glory the Lei Sect has today.
Moreover,
when the Demon Sect marched east years ago,
Lei Qianhu, who had never made a name for himself in the Jianghu, killed the Demon Sect elder You Bing head-on with a single Five Thunders Heavenly Gang Fist.
From this, it can be seen that
Lei Qianhu's martial arts talent was definitely not inferior to people like Lei Yunhe.
Plus, the Lei Sect is an ally of Snow Moon City.
Therefore,
regardless of the outcome of Lei Qianhu's three days, Jiang Chen was actually prepared to take action to dispel the cold poison in his body.
It's just that,
if he lost a lot, he would need to help him do some things as a consultation fee for the treatment.
Otherwise,
wouldn't all the other allies of Snow Moon City come to find him for every major or minor illness in the future?
As for what this consultation fee would be,
Jiang Chen hadn't thought about it yet.
After all, he didn't expect that just for the opening of the gambling house, Brother Sikong Changfeng would actually invite the Lei Sect and the Wen Family, and that the two family heads, Lei Qianhu and Wen Jiuhu, would actually come in person.
Thinking of this,
Jiang Chen couldn't help but think of the Tang Men.
Now, all the forces in the Northern Li Jianghu that are on good terms with Snow Moon City have come, and those sent are at least at the level of elders in their respective sects.
Even the two neutral sects, Wudang and Shaolin, have come.
However, only the Tang Men did not send anyone.
Jiang Chen didn't know if it was because Snow Moon City didn't notify them, or if they didn't come even after being notified.
If it was the latter,
Jiang Chen could understand.
After all, the Tang Men had previously cooperated with the Dark River to try to deal with Li Hanyi and Lei Family Fort.
Although this was a decision made by Old Master Tang's faction, it was impossible for Tang Lianyue, as the head of the Tang Men, to be unaware of this matter.
And with Tang Lianyue's strength, which was almost comparable to Baili Dongjun's,
Jiang Chen didn't believe that if he really wanted to stop Old Master Tang and the others, he couldn't have stopped them.
Of course,
Jiang Chen didn't blame Tang Lianyue for this.
Because he understood that although Tang Lianyue knew Old Master Tang wanted to deal with Lei Family Fort, he definitely didn't know that Old Master Tang would collude with the Dark River.
Otherwise,
he would definitely have taken action to stop it.
Because cooperating with the Dark River was simply seeking skin from a tiger.
Even if this cooperation succeeded, after losing the three allies of Snow Moon City, Lei Family Fort, and the Wen Family, if the Dark River turned around and dealt with his Tang Men, the Tang Men would simply be unable to resist the Dark River's assassinations.
However,
although Tang Lianyue was unaware of the cooperation with the Dark River, this didn't mean Jiang Chen would act as if this had never happened.
Because of this matter,
it could be said that the alliance between Snow Moon City and the Tang Men was no longer what it used to be.
If it weren't for Tang Lian, the eldest disciple of Snow Moon City, acting as a link, perhaps Snow Moon City and the Tang Men would have already dissolved their alliance.
It's just that,
neither Jiang Chen nor Brother Sikong Changfeng had said it out loud.
And the reason for this,
was just because Tang Lian was Baili Dongjun's disciple; now that Baili Dongjun hadn't returned, Brother Sikong Changfeng couldn't say much.
As for Jiang Chen, he didn't care at all.
Because whether the Tang Men is an ally of Snow Moon City or not made little difference to him.
In the past, the reason Snow Moon City allied with forces like the Tang Men and the Lei Sect was merely to counter Wushuang City and Tianqi City.
But Snow Moon City today,
even without him, Jiang Chen, no longer needed to worry about this.
Because Li Hanyi had also broken through to the Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm.
Although a Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm powerhouse cannot influence who gets the throne of the Northern Li Dynasty,
if Snow Moon City, which possesses a Spirit-Wandering Mystic Realm powerhouse, doesn't want to get involved in this turmoil, it's still no problem.
