Chapter 68: A Plan That Can Conquer the World

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Jiang Ming ingrained Zhou Tian’s condition deeply in his heart.

Since their relationship had dropped to -77, it meant if Zhou Tian had the chance, he would kill him without any hesitation. If he hated him so much, then how about his Junior Sister who defeated him?

He must hate her to the core, right?

‘Life is so wonderful, so why must you have a death wish? Is it really bad to stay alive?’ Jiang Ming shook his head.

The pages flipped and the record of another person appeared.

Name: Cang Yun

Race: Human

Gender: Male

Cultivation base: Primal Spirit Realm

Background: An Elder of the Great Zhou Dynasty

Relationship: 39

Innate Talent: Nine Stars

Status: Secretly protects Zhou Tian, the 18th Prince. When he witnessed Zi Linglong’s might, he exclaimed inwardly, expressing his disbelief at the emergence of a golden phoenix inside of a mountain. When he saw how exasperated Zhou Tian was after he was defeated, he sighed inwardly. Although he knew the prince wouldn’t listen to him, he still tried his best to pacify him. He told him to stay low profile and be humble since he was in a foreign land. After all, even if he was a prince, he would still be killed or assassinated if he accidentally ran into a ruthless person. At that time, even the Great Zhou Dynasty wouldn’t be able to do anything about it. Besides, if he really wanted other people to come under his command, he needed to be humble and open-minded. If he couldn’t do that, then how was he going to make other people come under his command? Wasn’t it nonsense? Sigh, I’ve done everything I needed to do. It’s up to him now!

‘It can record other people’s inner thoughts too!? Jiang Ming was amazed. He couldn’t understand how the “status” worked at all. Sometimes, it would be very short, but other times it would be very detailed.

That said, it seemed to him that this elder man known as Cang Yun was rather open-minded. It was just such a shame that he followed a shortsighted master.

While Jiang Ming was thinking, he came to the courtyard.

He made a pot of tea, poured out a cup, and handed it to his Master. After that, he sat next to his Master with his Junior Sister while waiting for his Master to start talking.

“You’ve done an awesome job today, Linglong,” Gu Hai said after sipping from the cup of tea and clearing his throat.

“Master, Junior Sister has made you proud, hasn’t she?” Jiang Ming chimed in and smiled, “The 18th Prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty has a high social status, not to mention that he’s really strong. He has never been defeated ever since he stepped into Eastern Region, but what happened to him after he came to the Jiuyang Sect?

“He got his *ss kicked by my Junior Sister. From today onward, everyone will look at you from a different perspective. You must be an immortal sage for being able to raise an impressive disciple like my Junior Sister!”

“An immortal sage?” Gu Hai’s eyes glowed up, and he nodded happily. However, when he saw the expression on his disciple’s face through the corner of his eyes, his face sank. “Don’t you ever try to change the topic, kid. I’m sure that with your intelligence, you know what problem we’re going to face next, right?”

Keeping the smile on her face, Zi Linglong looked at them and listened.

“What problem?” Jiang Ming handed a cup of tea to his Junior Sister. He then lifted his own cup and took a sip before continuing. “Are you worried that Zhou Tian will come back to get his revenge? Don’t worry, I’m sure he won’t do that. After all, he’s a prince, and it will only tarnish his reputation if he really comes to attack us in secret.

“Besides, they have set up a rule from the moment they stepped into Eastern Region, and that is that the people from the older generation are prohibited from joining the fight. In this case, nobody can defeat my Junior Sister.

“If you’re talking about the people from the devil sects, then you can rest assured.

“Nobody could tell how many powerful beings exist in Eastern Region. All we can say is that there are a lot of them, and they are all hiding in the dark, waiting for the right opportunity to make a name for themselves. Nobody would dare to kill a young prodigy openly, not even the devil sects. This is because arousing a nest of hornets is the last thing they want to do!

“Therefore, just have more faith in your disciple, Master,” Jiang Ming said.

“Of course, I have faith in my disciple,” Gu Hai said, “But the Jiuyang Sect is, after all, a small sect. We can’t afford the consequences of messing with the wrong person. Besides, even if everything you said makes sense, what if they come back to get their revenge after everyone has forgotten about it?”

“At that time, my Junior Sister will have become even stronger, and I’m sure she can protect us!”

“Are you sure about that? Although it seems like she’s making a lot of progress, no one knows when she’ll stop. If that happens, what should we do? What about your Junior Sister? What about you? What about me? And what about the sect?”

“Have you forgotten about me, Master?” Jiang Ming said as he gulped the cup of tea in one sitting.

Looking at her Senior Brother, Zi Linglong was stunned. She did not know why, but it appeared to her that her Senior Brother had suddenly become very confident. He looked as if he could solve every curveball that life threw at him. She even began to wonder about the possibility of her Senior Brother coming across a certain opportunity because of her. However, she soon rejected the thought. After all, her Senior Brother had never left the mountain before.

“You?” Gu Hai scoffed. “If we have to depend on you, we might as well disband the entire sect!” He turned his head around to look at Zi Linglong and said, “In the future, if you’re challenged by other people again, can you promise me that you won’t simply kill someone like what you did today?”

Zi Linglong blinked her eyes and looked at Jiang Ming.

“Of course!” Jiang Ming nodded. “After all, we’re a righteous sect. We won’t simply go around taking other people’s lives, and we will only kill someone when we’re pushed to the corner. Also, we must not show any mercy toward our enemies!”

“Okay!” Zi Linglong nodded obediently.

Gu Hai opened his mouth and stroked his beard. He was rendered speechless. Initially, he wanted to tell Zi Linglong that she shouldn’t take someone else’s life even if they were the enemy. However, he was worried that it might upset her and make her feel disappointed in him. That said, what if she accidentally provoked a being stronger than her after killing someone?

Gu Hai was torn. He looked at Jiang Ming, who was sipping on his tea and harrumphed. “Go prepare something for me to eat. I want 32 dishes. If I don’t like any of the dishes, I’ll hit you with my whip ten times!”

Zi Linglong covered her mouth and giggled.

Jiang Ming was rendered speechless. He rose to his feet and went into the kitchen. After all, there was nothing he could do other than follow his Master’s orders.

Seeing how obedient Jiang Ming was, Gu Hai felt delighted.

After finishing their meal, Zi Linglong took the precious medicinal herb out. It was the top-grade Jet Black Blue. The aroma it emitted could calm one’s mind and cleanse one’s thoughts. It was a good thing to use during cultivation.

Zi Linglong gave it to her Master.

Gu Hai refused to take it, but Zi Linglong insisted. In the end, he planted it in a jade flower pot and scattered a few high-grade spirit crystals around it as nutrients. He then placed it at the courtyard, and the air was instantly pervaded by a strong aroma.

Jiang Ming knew that his Master was doing this for both of them as well.

The next day, as they expected, a disciple from a family in Zhong Province came to them and challenged Zi Linglong to a fight. He was strong.

‘Should we decline the challenge? But since we accepted the challenge yesterday, it wouldn’t make sense if we refuse to accept any challenge today.

‘How about letting other disciples accept the challenge? That wouldn’t work either.

‘The challenger is a martial artist in the Dao Seed Realm, so should I send elders or First Seats to accept the challenge? Nope, nope, that’s a no-go!’ the Sect Master thought.

He could sense that someone was watching them from the dark, and he felt a chill travel down his spine. Leaving with no other options, he went to Chuyang Peak and looked for Zi Linglong.

Without a doubt, Zi Linglong defeated the challenger effortlessly.

There were challengers every day for the next three days. Jiang Ming was annoyed, let alone Zi Linglong.

After she defeated another challenger, Jiang Ming gathered up Chang Yiming, Zhang Junbao, and Huo Yun to discuss how they should deal with those challengers.

They couldn’t reject the challenge, but it would bring them even more problems if Zi Linglong kept on winning and attracting more and more attention.

How about pretending to be defeated? To lose on purpose was to humiliate others. After all, it was an open challenge.

“We’re already in the eye of the storm, and there’s nothing we can do.” Huo Yun, the First Seat of Lieyang Peak, frowned and said, “Go into seclusion? Considering those people’s attitudes, they might cause havoc in our sect to force Linglong to come out and fight them. She can’t leave the sect either.

“After all, there are so many people keeping an eye on her, and leaving the sect now is like walking straight into a snake pit. However, if we keep accepting the challenge, it will only attract more people to come and challenge her. This is hard.”

“Judging from the current situation, we can only accept the challenge,” Zhang Junbao said. “But how can we make it work in our favor?”

“Simple,” Chang Yiming said as an evil smile appeared on his chubby face, “I have a plan.”
