Chapter 335: Chapter 49: The Death of He Jinyun
Canglang Martial Arts Hall.
Backyard.
Standing in the courtyard, Jiang Ning heard Wang Jin’s words, and imdiately fell into silence.
He knew that if Aunt Sun died, it would inevitably be partly his fault.
Since the previous conflicts, He Jinyun had sowhat been at odds with him.
Regarding this prestigious Young Master, he had previously tried to avoid any serious conflicts, not wanting to provoke him.
Now that He Jinyun had acted against Aunt Sun, it was like a slap in the face for Jiang Ning.
Thinking this, Jiang Ning’s hands, which had naturally hung at his sides, now clenched tightly, his nails digging into his palms.
He couldn’t forget the care Aunt Sun had shown him when he first ca to the Martial Arts Hall.
He could feel that back then, Aunt Sun had treated him as if he were her own kin.
In this world, there weren’t many people he cared about, and Aunt Sun was one of them.
After contemplating for a long ti, Jiang Ning slightly closed his eyes, then opened them again, a firm look flashing through.
“Master, this is not your fault! The matter of Aunt Sun mainly arose because of !”
Hearing Jiang Ning’s unusually calm tone, Wang Jin imdiately looked up at him.
The next mont.
Wang Jin was slightly taken aback.
Because he saw in Jiang Ning’s eyes the calm before the storm, like the sea under a sky covered with black clouds, with the storm gradually stirring.
“You mustn’t do anything foolish!” Wang Jin said with a solemn tone.
Wang Jin was very clear about He Jinyun’s identity.
And precisely because of this, even though Wang Jin was far stronger than He Jinyun, he dared not lay a finger on him yesterday when He Jinyun blatantly disrespected him.
Young Master!
The significance behind these three words was too great.
In front of this weighty identity, even the title of Deputy Commander of the Inspection Office seed insignificant.
“I understand,” Jiang Ning replied, noncommittally nodding his head,
At this mont, his thoughts were very clear.
He Jinyun’s attack on Aunt Sun, whether or not his accusations were true, was as insignificant.
What mattered was that He Jinyun had chosen to act against soone related to him.
Such actions showed a lack of taboos.
In the future, there was no certainty that He Jinyun wouldn’t do sothing even more excessive, hurting those he cared about even more.
Moreover, whenever Jiang Ning rembered how Aunt Sun had especially saved him food and made his bed, treating him like family, he felt an overwhelming surge of emotions.
The next mont.
“Master, I’m going back first!”
Leaving these words behind, Jiang Ning turned and left.
Watching Jiang Ning’s retreating figure, Wang Jin raised his hand slightly, his mouth opening slightly.
For a long ti, until Jiang Ning’s figure disappeared around the corner.
“Ah—”
All the words Wang Jin wanted to say turned into a heavy sigh.
“If I had known it would co to this, I wouldn’t have told him!”
…
Elsewhere.
Walking from the Martial Arts Hall,
Jiang Ning took one step after another towards the Inspection Office.
At this mont, his mind was a jumble of thoughts flashing through.
Sotis recalling Aunt Sun’s kind face and past events!
Sotis rembering He Jinyun’s identity!
But as he walked step by step towards the Inspection Office, the chaotic thoughts in his mind cleared away like unspinning silk.
…
Inspection Office.
When Jiang Ning appeared at the entrance, his gaze was as calm as a deep pool.
“Greetings, Commander Jiang!” The two guards at the gate saw Jiang Ning’s arrival and imdiately bowed respectfully.
But at that mont, Jiang Ning, as if he heard them not, strode directly through the gates of the Inspection Office.
The next mont,
Without a sound,
his Spiritual Field had expanded, covering a hundred-ter radius around him.
Soon,
he spotted He Jinyun, who was drinking with others in another courtyard.
“Found you,” Jiang Ning murmured to himself.
After spotting He Jinyun, Jiang Ning imdiately turned around and headed for his own quarters in the Inspection Office.
Upon returning to his own quarters, Jiang Ning sat down cross-legged and beca as still as a ditating monk, his breath even, undisturbed like an ancient well.
Within his Spiritual Field that now enveloped the area, he kept a firm lock on He Jinyun.
Ti passed, second by second.
The warm, comforting sun also gradually descended towards the west.
During this ti, Feng Jiuge had co by.
But seeing Jiang Ning resembling a ditating monk, she quietly withdrew.
Then, Xie Xiaojiu also ca by.
She stood by for quite a long ti, almost a full hour, before silently moving back to the entrance of the courtyard, guarding the gate for Jiang Ning.
Although she didn’t know what Jiang Ning was doing at this mont, she knew that it was not a good ti for others to disturb him in this state.
…
When the setting sun stained the sky red with its lingering glow,
Jiang Ning also saw that He Jinyun and his companions’ banquet was coming to an end.
“It’s about ti,” Jiang Ning thought to himself.
The next mont,
Over the entire Luoshui County, the wind and clouds changed dramatically, dark clouds appeared from afar, and swiftly gathered above Luoshui County.
In just a short ti,
the once-clear skies had turned oppressively overcast.
Howling winds swept across the banks of Luoshui Lake, stirring the waters, which beat incessantly against the shoreline rocks.
The trees within the city also rustled loudly, their trunks gradually bending.
At this mont, Jiang Ning had maximized his ability to summon rain using his Divine Skills.
The thick clouds could now easily shroud the entire Luoshui County, as opposed to only covering most of it like before.
…
anwhile,
At the Yellow Heaven Sect’s headquarters.
“These clouds…” Liu Linn, looking up at the sky above, spoke with a heavy gaze and muttered to himself, “These clouds are abnormal. There’s sothing demonic about them!”
Seeing the clouds overhead, Jiang Ning’s figure flashed through his mind.
“Could it be him again?”
Imdiately,
Liu Linn’s gaze turned towards the distant horizon, his pupils constricting once again.
