Sect Leader Black Whirlwind stared at Wang Xiaoqiang for a while, then solemnly said, "Regardless of whether you acted out of personal enmity, consider this matter closed. In the future, I will not pursue it further, but rember, do not let sothing like this happen again. If it does, I will investigate it thoroughly."
"Yes," Wang Xiaoqiang replied.
"Wang Xiaoqiang, I have high hopes for you. I'm old, and tired of this job. I hope one day you can take my place. But if you're going to give up a promising future over a personal grudge, that would be truly unfortunate."
The expressionless face of Sect Leader Black Whirlwind finally showed a trace of emotion. Though it was hard to discern what, his earlier words were genuinely heartfelt.
"Thank you, Sect Leader, for the guidance. I will strive in my cultivation and not disappoint your expectations," Wang Xiaoqiang clasped his fists.
"I'm not worried about your cultivation, I'm worried about your actions. You are always doing sothing unexpected and it's worriso." Sect Leader Black Whirlwind's voice softened a bit, and the latter part he seed to mutter to himself, "So young, if you were ten years older and more stable, you'd definitely achieve great things in the future."
...
When Wang Xiaoqiang stepped out of Sect Leader Black Whirlwind's room, he found that Ling Xuefei and the other five had not left the Wind Rain Pavilion yet. This included Fairy Zixia and Ding Chunqiu, who were all waiting in the corridor.
Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang co out of the Sect Leader's room, all seven of them gathered around, anxiously asking questions.
"Brother Qiang, are you alright?"
"Brother Qiang, did the Sect Leader not bla you??"
Acting on personal grudges is a serious cri. Once verified, it could result in severe punishnt, sothing they all understood very well, hence their deep concern for Wang Xiaoqiang. They were implicitly asking this question.
Wang Xiaoqiang noticed that Fairy Zixia and Ling Xuefei were the most worried about him. As for Fairy Zixia, there was no need to ntion it. They had been together for so long, even a stone would warm up. There were feelings between them, so her concern was normal,
but Ling Xuefei's concern was unusual. Wang Xiaoqiang thought, maybe won have softer hearts, or perhaps, she had also developed feelings for him?
Wang Xiaoqiang didn't have ti to dwell on this, and instead responded to everyone, "I'm fine. The Sect Leader invited for tea after I completed the task. Haha..."
Wang Xiaoqiang smiled lightly.
"But, Brother Qiang..." Ling Xuefei started to speak but stopped. "Will the Purple Sun Immortal in the future..."
Wang Xiaoqiang's gaze suddenly flashed as he looked at Ling Xuefei, then swept over everyone else, solemnly saying, "Rember, never call Brother Qiang again. Call Little Qiang or Administrator instead..."
"And about this mission, it's in the past now. No one is allowed to ntion it again. Just wait for the rewards."
Hearing Wang Xiaoqiang say this, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief and stopped asking, then dispersed.
...
This ti, not only did Wang Xiaoqiang act out of personal enmity by killing the Sky Obscuring Lord, but he also received a generous reward. Adding to his task commission as an Administrator, he received a total of one thousand golden silks and one thousand Liquid Gathering Pills.
Furthermore, during this assassination, he obtained an exceptional treasure, the "Jinse Protector."
That night.
He took this defensive-type magic treasure out of the Suru Ring to study. He first erased Elder Chu's Divine Consciousness Imprint from the Jinse Protector, then perford a blood-recognition binding. Once he established a connection with the Jinse Protector, he learned how to use it and uncovered all its hidden secrets.
The use of the Jinse Protector is quite simple. In tis of danger, you directly communicate with it using your willpower and throw it up. The Jinse Protector can then envelop the owner for protection,
and the sa thod applies to protect others.
In the face of attacks from magic treasures and immortal techniques, the Jinse Protector's defensive power is strong. However, it does not fare well against large-scale violent impacts, such as a powerful physical body collision, as shown by the Sky Obscuring Lord's death.
It has strengths, but also weaknesses.
Moreover, the defensive power of the Jinse Protector is worth further exploration.
Currently, its defensive power only utilizes one-seventh of its potential, as indicated by its lone emission of purple light,
If its full defensive power were unleashed, it would display seven colors like a splendid brocade, and only then would its na be fully justified.
Once its defensive power is fully activated, the Jinse Protector will emit a multicolored brilliance akin to a silk brocade.
But now, it only emits a purple light, signifying only one layer of defensive power has been utilized, with six layers still undeveloped,
As for how to unleash them, the thod is quite simple. Unleash them through continuous battles, continuous defenses, especially in life-and-death struggles,
As an elder of the Purple Sun Sect, Elder Chu usually led a reclusive life, focused on cultivation, and rarely had opportunities for battle. Thus, even though he knew the Jinse Protector could develop six more layers of defensive power, he was powerless to do so,
Additionally, he valued this ancestral treasure highly, fearing it would attract strong contenders coveting it, adding troubles to himself.
Therefore, this defensive treasure remained unused, and its defensive power was stuck at one layer, never fully utilized.
"Well, after following , you will shine with rainbow hues, unleash your full potential, and beco the top of defensive-type magic treasures," Wang Xiaoqiang mumbled to the Jinse Protector, as if speaking to a new friend, feeling imnsely gratified.
Suddenly…
Fairy Zixia entered the room.
With a thought, Wang Xiaoqiang quickly placed the Jinse Protector back into the Suru Ring.
Seeing this, Fairy Zixia gave Wang Xiaoqiang a sidelong glance, "What are you hiding from ?"
Ever since seeing Ling Xuefei showing concern for Wang Xiaoqiang, Fairy Zixia had been quietly jealous. But she was not one to indulge in petty jealousy like a typical woman; she was just slightly forlorn.
"Uh, just a little trinket," Wang Xiaoqiang replied evasively.
"Let see," Fairy Zixia sat beside Wang Xiaoqiang and extended her delicate hand.
Fairy Zixia wasn't an outsider, so Wang Xiaoqiang felt no need to hide from her. Thus, he took out the Jinse Protector from the Suru Ring again and held it up before her, "Here, this is it."
"What is it?" Fairy Zixia gazed at the Jinse Protector with curiosity.
"It's called Jinse Protector, a defensive-type magic treasure."
"Why does it look like a net?" Fairy Zixia frowned slightly.
"Yes, it's ant to ensnare people," Wang Xiaoqiang said with a mischievous grin. Suddenly, he tossed it up; with a thought, the Jinse Protector emitted purple light, enlarged, and enveloped Fairy Zixia like a net.
"Ah," Fairy Zixia exclaid softly, her face turning red like a lotus against the sun. "What are you doing? Release ...quickly…"
Seeing Fairy Zixia's flushed face, as beautiful as a lotus in sunlight, along with her shy deanor, Wang Xiaoqiang took great delight, "It's not to trap you; it's to protect you... Hehe…" (to be continued. If you enjoy this work, please go to Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.
