"Lord Jiang and I share a bond, we are on the sa side, helping him is a certainty! Moreover, if he can achieve such accomplishnts, and one day break my predictions, he will be a contender among the strongest in the world, a real gem amidst adversity is far easier to garner friendship than one in prosperity!" Ye Zhengqi said mildly.
...
Two days later.
A carriage arrived at the east gate of Guangning City.
The road was slippery with mud from the heavy rain which fell all day previously.
Though the skies cleared, the road was still full of muddy pools and potholes.
The curtain of the carriage lifted, and a woman bent over and stepped out.
At the mont she erged, it was as if the heavens brightened, becoming more vibrant.
"Miss, Guangning City is just ahead!" Beside the carriage, a cavalry captain in black armor rode closer.
Wang Qintan nodded: "Then let’s enter the city! Find a suitable place to settle first, then locate Lord Jiang’s residence for ."
"Yes, Miss!" the cavalry captain responded.
A short while later.
A group of cavalryn escorted the carriage slowly toward the city gate.
As the formidable cavalry approached, the people at the gate stepped aside, clearing a wide path.
"Who could this important figure be traveling?"
"No idea, can’t tell!!"
"These cavalry, fully clad in black armor, appear effortlessly unfazed by the long journey, could they be the Xuanjia Cavalry?"
"Judging by the armor style, it seems to be the Xuanwu Army’s Xuanjia Cavalry branch!"
"Wow! That’s sothing! The Xuan Armor Army is rumored to mostly consist of Eighth Grade martial artists, their elite teams starting at Seventh Grade, and the captains even stronger!"
"..."
The discussions at the city gate quickly unveiled the identity of this cavalry.
At the sa ti.
Within the entrance of the city gate.
Two n who had been waiting for so ti exchanged glances, nodded, and walked toward the carriage escorted by the elite Xuan Armor team where Wang Qintan was.
"Halt!" The ard captain drove his warhorse forward three steps.
"I am with the Inspector Mansion, under orders from Lord Ye!" One of the n from the city gate squad approached, his deanor neither arrogant nor servile.
"Lord Ye, is it Ye Zhengqi?" The captain of the elite Xuan Armor team asked.
"How dare you address Lord Prefect directly!" The man rebuked harshly.
Upon hearing this, the captain of the elite squad’s face flushed.
As a military man, he naturally wasn’t one to take such grievance lightly.
But thinking of the person standing behind these two n, he suppressed his temper.
"Apologies, it was my rashness, I offended Lord Prefect." He restrained his restless comrades behind him.
Then jumped down from the warhorse.
"May I ask why you two stopped ?" The captain of the elite Xuan Armor team asked again.
"We are waiting here on orders from Lord Prefect for the arrival of County Governor Wang’s daughter, Miss Wang Qintan!"
"Wait for ?" The curtain swept aside, Wang Qintan stepped out.
"Are you the daughter of Dongling’s Prefectural Governor, Miss Wang Qintan?" The man cupped his hands in greeting.
"Indeed! Wang Shouyi is my father!" Wang Qintan alighted from the carriage, replied.
"Greetings, Miss Wang!" The man cupped his hands, continued: "Lord Ye ntioned that you are a friend of Lord Jiang, thus instructed us to wait here to see if Miss Wang has any needs?"
"Miss Wang just arrived in Guangning City, if you require any assistance, we are at your service!"
Upon hearing these words, a hint of surprise passed through Wang Qintan’s eyes.
"First, my thanks to Lord Prefect!" She cupped her hands in courtesy.
"Miss Wang is too kind! Lord Ye is a friend of Lord Jiang, while Miss Wang is also his friend." The man again ntioned this.
"Lord Jiang?!" Wang Qintan murmured.
Then smiled slightly, looking at the man: "Could this gentleman lead to Lord Jiang?"
"Of course!" The man replied.
"Captain Qin, I’ve now arrived in Guangning City, your mission is completed, farewell!" Wang Qintan said.
"But..." The captain of the elite Xuan Armor team interjected.
"No buts!" Wang Qintan interrupted him, her tone exceptionally resolute: "Your mission is complete, when your master arrives in Guangning City, I will visit him!"
The mont she finished speaking.
Wang Qintan turned to the two n from the Inspector Mansion, cupped her hands in gratitude: "Gentlen, please lead the way!"
"Miss Wang, please ride the carriage and follow us!" The man said.
"Thank you!" Wang Qintan replied.
She then reentered the carriage, directing the driver to follow the two n.
...
Tingzhu Pavilion.
Jiang Ning posed in the corresponding posture of the Vajra Immortal Body.
His Qi-Blood surged like magma.
Drops of sweat rolled off his skin.
Splash—
As they hit the ground, they exploded into countless splashes, sparkling in the sunlight like tiny pearls.
[Vajra Immortal Body Experience Value 1]
[Vajra Immortal Body Experience Value 1]
[Vajra Immortal Body Experience Value 1]
[...]
At the mont, hints of experience value incrent kept appearing before him.
Since his second Blood Exchange felt slightly taxing, he knew he had to elevate his mastery of the Vajra Immortal Body.
The Blood Exchange process extracts energy from the flesh to recreate new blood.
This requires robust physical strength as support.
Many Third Grade Grandmasters opt to pre-consu pills during the new blood creation process for external aid.
He currently doesn’t wish to use such a thod.
Simply put, too impoverished.
An Origin Pill competent enough to aid a Grandmaster in Blood Exchange is worth a fortune.
Such exorbitant pricing obviously carries exaggerated value.
To him, it’s a significant loss.
Poverty ans he must rely solely on himself, on his innate foundation to support the Blood Exchange completion.
Instead of purchasing an Origin Pill to assist with the Blood Exchange, he’d prefer buying suitable Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, enhancing Source Energy Points, and achieving Break Limit in his skill.
Thus, after contemplation, he realized the progression of the Vajra Immortal Body couldn’t lag behind.
The Vajra Immortal Body is an incredibly profound thod for skin refinent.
The skin is inherently part of the flesh.
Transforming the skin can significantly boost his physical strength.
Achieving Break Limit, acquiring the awe-inspiring trait becos very apparent.
Suddenly.
Footsteps approached from outside the courtyard.
"Soone’s coming?" His mind stirred.
Exhale—
He then exhaled a breath of impure energy, interrupting the Vajra Immortal Body practice.
[Skill]: Vajra Immortal Body (Once Break Limit 3765/20000) (Trait: Dragon Elephant Power)
Consecutive two-day practice of this skill increased the experience value noticeably.
Simultaneously, he felt his body becoming stronger due to continuous refinent, his skin tougher.
He could clearly sense his skin becoming tauter, muscles brimming with explosive power.
After he ceased practicing.
He clasped his fist.
Boom—
It was as if he shattered solid air, releasing and spreading white vapor from his hand.
A blast wave erged out of nowhere.
How exhilarating!
Feeling the imnse power within him, he inwardly praised.
Then he swung his bare arm, flinging off the gathered sweat.
Thud—
Thud—
Thud—
At that mont, the sound of knocking echoed from the courtyard gate.
Surely they’ve co for !
Jiang Ning thought to himself.
Then stepped forward to open the courtyard gate.
The next instant.
Surprise flickered in his eyes.
Outside the courtyard gate.
Two n stood in front, whom he had briefly t at Ye Zhengqi’s mansion.
With unforgettable mory, he recognized them as Ye Zhengqi’s subordinates.
What truly surprised him was the woman behind them.
Wearing a Phoenix Wing Gilded Skirt, Wang Qintan shimred in the sunlight.
Upon seeing Jiang Ning, Wang Qintan’s cheeks slightly flushed.
Being raised in seclusion, as the eldest daughter of Dongling’s Prefectural Governor, she’d never witnessed soone bare-chested before her.
Despite her strong inner fortitude, her cheeks slightly reddened.
Yet her gaze did not avert, showing no avoidance.
After a thoughtful glance, she suddenly conceived a curious thought.
The texture must be amazing!!
