Chapter 1431: Chapter 105: How Should I Address You
Dawn broke quickly, as if chased by sothing…
The night still held a lingering sense of length, but suddenly, the morning light flooded the paper windows, bright and clear.
Thus, it dissipated.
“Judging by the ti, it’s about early class,” Yu Zhen lazily sat up from the bed and explained naturally.
Jiang Wang said nothing.
Lying on the floor with his eyes closed, as if not fully awake.
A body heavily wounded and not healed tends to feel drowsy, sleeping then waking, waking then sleeping.
Last night he didn’t sleep enough, and wasn’t clear-headed.
But, it shouldn’t be this natural… there was a voice in his head saying.
Yu Zhen didn’t mind, treating him as if he were truly asleep.
Getting out of bed, she easily picked him up and laid him on the bed, saying, “Ah, poor little thing. How could you sleep on the floor? What if you caught a cold? Really worriso.”
Her lazy tone resembled a song.
As if she wasn’t the one who threw Jiang Wang off the bed last night.
The weak and wounded Jiang Wang seed adrift at sea, the water supporting him, soft, vast, yet dangerous.
It could take him where he needed to go or bury him.
At the mont he landed on the bed, it felt like coming ashore, with a real sense of solid ground.
“Lying on the floor for a night connects you to the earth; it’s good for healing. But not for too long,”
Yu Zhen placed him on the bed and gently said, “I’ll be back tonight.”
Then she turned swiftly on her heel.
“What should I call you?” The injured man, lying behind her, opened his eyes.
They were clear, serene, and very awake—
“Miao Yu? Yu Zhen? Bai Lian?”
Yu Zhen’s steps halted.
After a mont, she said, “Call whatever you like… all of those nas are .”
Because neither of them avoided it, the simple question and answer beca brutal.
“Yes. All of those are you.”
Jiang Wang said, paused, then continued, “I rember what I owe you, and don’t forget what you owe , Miao Yu.”
How plain the voice was.
Yet it shredded the entire night’s romance.
Tearing apart the brief illusion of a beautiful ti, the true colors of reality were so cold.
Yu Zhen said nothing, pushing the door open and walking out.
Jiang Wang also fell silent.
His back still felt the warmth left by the previous person.
Like a faint ember, gently warming him.
But his heart was cold.
He had no other choice.
…
…
The Jingguo side: Cang Shen, Ji Yanyue, Qiu Tie, and Fu Dongxu.
The Qi Country side: Wen Yanyu, Shi Mingcheng, who had broken away from the Hanging Monastery’s Ku Jue, and Jingguo’s Zhongshan Yanwen.
Eight True n of the Age gathered in the Wu Yadu Mountains!
These eight powerful figures, rely hovering in high air, without even advancing a step closer, unleashed an intimidation akin to a hurricane’s arrival.
The entire Wu Yadu Mountains lay still, birds didn’t fly, beasts didn’t roam, wind didn’t move, trees didn’t sway… even the magma in the volcanic craters seed solidified.
Seen from afar, below those eight figures, the entire Wu Yadu Mountains seed to shrink by half!
They all ca here because they made a discovery.
“Unexpected,” Qi Country’s Imperial Court Adviser Wen Yanyu shook his head. “Jinguo claims our Qi Country talents communicate with demons, yet they send him into the Ancient Demon Cave!”
A middle-aged man of modest deanor wearing neat attire, with elegantly straightforward features.
At this ti he looked toward the four True n of Jinguo, with sarcasm in his voice: “Is it that you Jinguo are internally divided, or is Zhao Xuenyang simply not believing your Mirror World Platform’s announcent?”
Zhao Xuenyang once received information from the Qian Tian Mirror outside the Ancient Demon Cave and left a very short trace.
He naturally concealed it with thods, but when True n of the Age scoured with Divine Senses at close range, there was nowhere for it to hide.
The first to discover this place were Qiu Tie and Zhongshan Yanwen.
Though the Ancient Demon Cave was hidden at the bottom of a magma river and exceedingly difficult to detect, it couldn’t escape such close investigation by true n.
Zhao Xuenyang and Jiang Wang’s whereabouts were finally confird.
Qiu Tie wanted to explore inside right away but was stopped by Zhongshan Yanwen, who suggested waiting for everyone before entering to avoid any potential confusion.
It was a rational and justified request, and Qiu Tie couldn’t refuse.
Thus, the current scene of eight True n gathered in the Wu Yadu Mountains unfolded.
In response to Wen Yanyu’s questioning, Fu Dongxu rely chuckled, “Why they entered the Ancient Demon Cave, and how, remains unknown. For True Man Wen to hastily define the nature of this, isn’t it a bit impatient? Makes one feel particularly insecure!”
Characteristic of a nacing presence, Shi Mingcheng took a step forward aggressively: “Surely it wasn’t Jiang Wang capturing Zhao Xuenyang into the Demon Cave? If he had such ability, then how did Zhao Xuenyang capture him?!”
Black as soot, built like an iron tower, Qiu Tie’s build and appearance matched Shi Mingcheng.
He imdiately stepped up, blocking in front of him.
Like a bull locking horns, two mountains staring each other down.
In an elegant palace gown, Ji Yanyue leisurely said, “Since the Middle Ages, all Ancient Demon Caves have been abandoned. No devil can traverse through. If Xuan Yang is pursued and hides in an Ancient Demon Cave, isn’t it a clever move? What’s the issue?”
Ku Jue frowned, looking innocent, “Who pursued? I wasn’t aware?”
“Gentlen!” Zhongshan Yanwen spoke up at this ti, “No need to rush into argunts. Let’s look into the situation first before discussing anything further, is it not more sensible?”
From the looks of him, just a skinny old man, no one would link him to the renowned Demon-Slaying General of Jingguo’s Eagle Soaring Guard.
His enemies feared him like a tiger, and so did his grandchildren…
Fu Dongxu imdiately chid in, “General Zhongshan makes a good point.”
Wen Yanyu ca representing Qi Country this ti, undoubtedly urged repeatedly by his future son-in-law—in fact, Qi Court sent Wen Yanyu precisely to show commitnt and efforts in Jiang Wang’s matter.
At this mont he replied, “No matter what, we must bring Jiang Wang back this ti. So claim to honor the Demon-Slaying Pact yet disappear themselves, hard for to trust their abilities, or their integrity. How can the safety of our Qi Country talent be entrusted to diocre shoulders!”
“Who do you call diocre?” Cang Shen, having endured for long, finally couldn’t contain himself: “Young, yet mastering Mysterious Yin Yang to the fullest!”
“Only seeking to trample on others instead of self-progress, is it not diocre? Bullying the young, the Deity intimidates the Inner Mansion, is it not diocre? The two countries contest, yet exploit a youth who’s not even of age, is it not diocre?!” Wen Yanyu looked at him disdainfully, coldly stating: “Old and decrepit!”
“What did you say!?” Cang Shen raged uncontrollably.
For Wen Yanyu, usually harmonious and serene, it’s rare to fiercely confront others.
Shi Mingcheng glanced at this Imperial Court Adviser Wen, a sinister smile on his fierce face.
“Gentlen!” Zhongshan Yanwen stepped in to ease the atmosphere again: “We haven’t found the person yet, are you about to fight here and now? I believe you ca to search, not for battle, right?”
“The tree desires calm but the wind won’t stop. Ever since antiquity, Jinguo has shed blood for the Demon-Slaying Pact, sacrificing countless lives, yet today we’re accused of national competition. Disheartening indeed.” Fu Dongxu shook his head, “Very well, let’s go inside and see!”
Upon saying that, he took the lead, descending the volcanic crater.
The lake of surging magma gradually parted from the center to make way!
