Chapter 344: Chapter 53 Jiang Li’s Right Arm Recovers
Canglang Martial Arts Hall.
“Master!” Jiang Ning spoke.
Wang Jin looked at Jiang Ning, his brow imdiately furrowed.
“I heard that He Jinyun died. Do you know about it?”
“I know,” Jiang Ning nodded calmly.
Wang Jin looked at Jiang Ning and suddenly sighed deeply.
“You are too impulsive! How dare you touch soone of He Jinyun’s status! Aren’t you afraid of bringing disaster upon yourself?”
Jiang Ning said, “Besides you and , Master, no one else knows of this matter.”
Wang Jin shook his head, “I believe you in this!” Then he shifted his tone, “But… do you think the upper-echelon really needs evidence to act?”
Afterward, Wang Jin stared into Jiang Ning’s eyes, “Let ask you this once, up to this point, in your endeavors, for the people you intend to kill, would you discuss evidence?”
Taken aback by this remark, Jiang Ning faltered slightly.
Wang Jin continued, “Evidence isn’t important!”
“The laws of Great Xia are rely to solidify rule, to restrain the common folk, so they don’t rise in chaos against each other!”
“They are not ant to restrain the upper-echelon!”
“If you climb higher, you’ll understand a principle, a stark reality, the perpetual law of survival of the fittest!”
“The weak exist only to be trampled upon!”
“If you have enough strength, who will discuss evidence or reason with you?”
“He Jinyun’s death! As long as Qinghe Marquis suspects you, even without evidence pinpointing you, it would still pose a great threat to you!”
…
Leaving Canglang Martial Arts Hall.
Jiang Ning’s understanding beca clear.
His previous knowledge was from his past life as an ordinary citizen.
Ordinary people require evidence and law to protect themselves.
Just as Wang Jin had said.
Laws and regulations were nothing more than shackles placed on the common people by the rulers.
Only with these shackles in place could Great Xia remain harmonious and stable, without unrest.
To those in power, the rules are set by them.
The shackles of rules never truly bound them.
“Perhaps… survival of the fittest is the true essence of this world!” Jiang Ning muttered to himself, recalling experiences from his past life.
All the way, Jiang Ning kept reflecting.
Soon, he arrived at the entrance of his ho.
“Is soone here?” Seeing the open gate, Jiang Ning imdiately looked solemn.
Normally, the gate to his estate was never carelessly opened; after all, Little Dumpling was still young, and leaving the gate open was too dangerous, as Little Dumpling could easily wander out.
The open gate today ant that soone was definitely visiting.
This sudden visit at such a timing made Jiang Ning grow solemn.
The next mont.
He stepped onto the stairs.
His eyes level with the gate, he instantly saw a man and a woman standing on either side of the entrance through the open gate.
Their features were lovely and they were not old, wearing clothes he was very familiar with, marked with the insignia of dicine King Valley.
Seeing Jiang Ning’s arrival.
The pair imdiately stepped forward, respectfully saying, “Greetings to Commander Jiang, our Sect Master has co to visit and has been waiting inside your residence for quite a while!”
Sect Master?
Hearing these words, Jiang Ning’s heart grew heavy.
The Sect Master ntioned by the two undoubtedly referred to the Valley Master of dicine King Valley.
In Jiang Ning’s view, this person was the true power figure who could dominate Dongling County,
not soone who could only claim supremacy in a small county town.
A county was ten tis larger than a county town.
In such a vast area, there were countless powerful martial artists.
And dicine King Valley, looking across the whole of Dongling County, was a leading force.
The status and identity of its Valley Master were unimaginable.
Plus, according to Jiang Ning’s knowledge, the Valley Master was a true Fifth Grade Internal Strength Realm Peak powerhouse, whose energy was refined as solid as Gang.
Such a powerhouse, according to the records, could slay a thousand enemies with a single sword.
An enemy of ten thousand was precisely what such a powerhouse could accomplish.
Recalling his past conflicts with dicine King Valley, recalling how he had intercepted dicine King Valley’s route, killed the bandit Tian Buyi, and privately consud the two Leopard Embryo Shaping Body Pills.
Later, he had also killed the elder of dicine King Valley, Liu Qingsong.
“Those who co are not kind!!” Jiang Ning felt incredibly grave.
But at this stage, Jiang Ning knew he could not retreat temporarily.
For such beings, a re hundred ters could be crossed in a stride.
With the Valley Master’s strength, his arrival at the door would inevitably be noticed by him.
In an instant, he could appear next to him.
And with his elder brother and sister-in-law’s family at ho, he couldn’t afford to back down easily now.
He also believed, given his current official status, even if the Valley Master of dicine King Valley harbored ill will, he wouldn’t dare to attack him openly in broad daylight.
People of the martial world do not dare to openly attack Great Xia officials under the light of day.
That was a great taboo!
The next mont.
“Lead the way, please!” Jiang Ning spoke calmly.
“Okay!” The two responded imdiately.
Then they gestured with their hands, “Commander Jiang, please follow us!”
Stepping over the threshold, the two led Jiang Ning towards the east courtyard.
“Commander Jiang, the Sect Master specially ca to visit you an hour ago! Having heard that you had just left and were not at ho, our Sect Master has been waiting for you in your east courtyard!”
The pair explained as they led the way.
Hearing this, Jiang Ning felt sowhat relieved.
Had they harbored ill intentions, these two wouldn’t have treated him with such respect.
