Chapter 550 Tender Parting

Two days later, Wu Dongxiao looked at the jade slip in his hand and fell silent.

Upon probing it with one's soul, one immediately sees the following format—

[Time: a certain month, a certain day, a certain hour.]

Location: Yanri Mountain Range, battlefield.

Event: Dong Xiao deserves a beating.

Wu Dongxiao wiped away his sweat and took a deep breath.

...Uncle, don't you really think there's anything wrong with it?

I actually remembered it!

She's totally henpecked!

but……

Well, it's not so strange that he's afraid of his wife.

All these years have passed, and his uncle has always been afraid of his wife; it didn't just start now.

·

Wu Dongxiao's lips twitched.

The jade slip is constantly being updated with records, the contents of which are engraved into it by his uncle using his soul power.

What's even more terrifying is that the jade slip itself is equipped with many defensive measures and has been engraved with profound energy marks by his uncle, making it impossible to forge.

In other words, he doesn't know when his uncle might suddenly pull out this jade slip, look at the records inside, and beat him up!

Really...

It's a long story.

In the end, Wu Dongxiao could only silently return the jade slip to his uncle, who then kept it.

well.

From now on, he will probably have to count down the days and live in fear every single day.

·

Zhong Cai noticed Wu Dongxiao's sighing and groaning appearance and couldn't help but smile.

Wu Shaogan looked at Zhong Cai tenderly and handed the jade slip back to Zhong Cai for safekeeping.

Zhong Caihun probed the contents and was overjoyed.

·

During his time with Wu Shaogan, Jiang Chongguang spent most of his time fighting in the air, so Zhong Cai didn't have a chance to greet his master. But when Jiang Chongguang recovered, they naturally reunited.

Zhong Cai presented his master's greetings, along with a number of level-eight pills that his master had asked him to bring.

Jiang Chongguang accepted it directly, then raised his hand, preparing to pat Zhong Cai on the shoulder.

But when he raised his hand, he found that it was still covered in blood, making it inconvenient to continue doing anything... So he shook his hand, used his Xuan power to brush away all the blood, and then took out some clean water to wash his hand.

Zhong Cai waited nearby, and seeing Master Jiang so busy, she couldn't help but smile broadly.

After cleaning up the bloodstains, Jiang Chongguang patted Zhong Cai on the shoulder and then gently patted her head.

Zhong Cai smiled even more happily.

The two didn't have much time to chat, as Jiang Chongguang quickly went back to his recovery.

There are many evil Nirvanas on the battlefield. While other righteous cultivators can have their burdens lightened and can rest more when they are tired because of Wu Shaogan's massacre, the righteous Nirvana cannot.

If the Nirvana cultivators of both the righteous and evil paths cannot quickly return to their own realm during their period of exhaustion, they are easily besieged by other cultivators. If they cannot return immediately after recovery, the pressure on their own Nirvana cultivation will increase dramatically, and they could easily be seriously injured if they are not careful.

Therefore, Jiang Chongguang rushed back to the battlefield as soon as he recovered.

This time, he swallowed a high-grade pill that Zhong Cai had just given him, refined by Sang Yunchu. Naturally, the medicinal power was abundant, allowing him to recover faster.

Now, Jiang Chongguang was in high spirits. As soon as he rushed into the battlefield, he immediately lured away a rather powerful evil Nirvana cultivator and engaged in fierce fighting with him.

Perhaps because of the much comfort and encouragement he received, Jiang Chongguang inflicted even greater damage on his opponent this time. Moreover, he seemed to be constantly refining his martial arts skills through continuous battles, and even vaguely grasped the prototype of some more terrifying secret techniques...

·

The heretical Nirvana cultivators of the Hidden Sun Mountains also harbored great fear of Jiang Chongguang.

As long as other powerful evil sects are free, they will try their best to attack Jiang Chongguang.

Because Jiang Chongguang's cultivation level is low, but his combat power is very strong, if such a righteous path Nirvana takes more time to grow, he will be a great threat to the evil path!

However, Jiang Chongguang had many defensive items on him. Although his cultivation level was only at the initial stage, his defense had reached the top level of the eighth grade. Whenever he was attacked by a more powerful evil cultivator, his defense could not be broken, and he would quickly escape.

Even more powerful evil attacks would occasionally strike, but Jiang Chongguang himself was able to glean a lot from them, incorporating them into his own experience and further improving his martial arts skills...

Therefore, Jiang Chongguang, being like this, was increasingly valued by the evil sects.

And so it goes.

But Jiang Chongguang was fearless; on the contrary, he became more and more courageous in battle.

The evil forces were also helpless, especially after they learned that Jiang Chongguang came from the Temple of War.

That's how the Temple of War is; at least five or six out of ten are battle maniacs, and the others might not be crazy, but they're hardly composed either...

Seeing Jiang Chongguang fight so hard, the other War God Temple Masters also fought with increasing fervor.

They did not disappoint the reputation of the Temple of War in the slightest.

·

This day, it was still on the deck of a warship.

Zhong Cai grasped Wu Shaogan's hand and their eyes met.

Most of the cultivators around were still engaged in battle, while a small number had to return to recuperate due to injuries or insufficient Xuan power... Among them, some were quietly keeping an eye on this side.

—What's wrong?

—Suddenly they held hands and looked at each other again?

—Didn't King Zhong Dan just rest all night? Is he missing King Wu Dou so much that he wants to shake hands with him and look at him tenderly?

At this moment, Zhong Cai sighed softly and said, "Old Wu, I'm going back."

Wu Shaogan nodded slightly.

The two continued to gaze at each other, as if a thousand words were contained in that single glance.

However……

The other cultivators who overheard their conversation all narrowed their eyes.

The disciples of the War God Temple were alright; they knew that King Zhong Dan had probably taken leave to come, and it wasn't good for him to stay on the battlefield for long, so they should go back.

The disciples of the Nine Sounds Sect, on the other hand, had very complicated emotions.

Many disciples exchanged glances.

[Zhong Danwang is actually leaving!]

"Yes! I just remembered, King Zhong Dan came to visit King Wu Dou this time! He didn't come to offer assistance! He came to refine so many pills out of kindness!"

It's such a pity, why couldn't King Zhong Dan have stayed a little longer...?

Actually, it's not a short time; it's been a month already.

I understand the reasoning, but having Zhong Danwang here really saves us a lot of trouble.

and……

Many disciples looked quite solemn.

Moreover, after King Zhongdan leaves, we'll be facing King Wudou again!

【yes! 】

When that time comes, and I go to the battlefield, I'll be worried sick again!

The disciples looked at each other in bewilderment.

At this moment, they were really in a difficult position to keep the person, and they were also very nervous.

No matter how complicated her emotions were, she could only watch helplessly as Zhong Cai said goodbye to Wu Shaogan and then went over to greet Jiang Chongguang from afar.

High in the sky, Jiang Chongguang was fiercely clashing with a heretic in the mid-stage of Nirvana. After hearing Zhong Cai's greeting, he actually took the time to nod to him.

The evil cultivator opposite: "..."

The cultivators on the other battlefields: "..."

After that, Zhong Cai calmly looked at Wu Shaogan again, then threw herself into his arms and gave him a tight hug.

Wu Shaogan rubbed Zhong Cai's head.

Next, no matter how reluctant they were, they had to part ways.

Wu Shaogan protected Zhong Cai and escorted him directly out of the battlefield.

Once outside the camp, Zhong took out a flying boat and launched it.

The flying boat reverted to its original form and hovered high in the sky.

Zhong Cai looked around and, seeing that no one was deliberately spying on them, tiptoed slightly and kissed Wu Shaogan on the lips.

Wu Shaogan also lowered his head and kissed Zhong Cai.

But in such a serious setting, this was the most intimate gesture the two could make.

The next moment, Zhong Cai flashed and boarded the flying boat.

He waved to Wu Shaogan and raised his voice slightly, saying, "Old Wu! I'm going back!"

Wu Shaogan smiled and said, "A-Cai, have a safe journey."

Then, the flying boat transformed into a beam of light and shot off in an instant.

In another instant, the airship disappeared.

That's incredibly fast.

·

The moment the airship disappeared, many guards at the gate all turned their gazes to Wu Shaogan.

Observe quietly.

After King Zhongdan leaves, will King Wudou transform... no, will he become a different person again?

The next moment, everyone realized that he had indeed become a different person again.

The gentle smile on Wu Shaogan's face was visibly gone.

He stood there like a rigid statue, gazing into the distance.

After a few breaths, Wu Shaogan turned around and walked towards the camp.

As Wu Shaogan walked forward, with each step he took, the gentle aura around him diminished a little. After walking for a while, his aura became completely still, like a stagnant pool.

Fortunately, although the water was stagnant, it wasn't particularly sharp.

Wu Shaogan simply suppressed all his emotions and became less like a living person again.

only……

This changed way too fast!

·

After returning to the ninth-class warship, Wu Shaogan stood in front of the railing.

Upon seeing this, the cultivators on the warship all hissed silently, as if they had a toothache.

It really has turned back to its original state!

Some cultivators vaguely remembered that when Wu Shaogan first came here, he was exactly this kind of idiot.

It seems the reinforcements from the Temple of War were right; once King Wu Dou leaves King Zhong Dan, he is no longer the same person he once was.

Or perhaps, this is his true form, and when he was in front of King Zhong Dan... he was just showing his best side?

·

The situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, and the cultivators soon stopped paying attention to Wu Shaogan.

Wu Shaogan himself quickly joined the battle and continued to fight against the evil forces.

This time, he no longer exuded a menacing aura, nor did he display himself like a peacock spreading its tail feathers.

Wu Shaogan calmly displayed his increasingly refined secret technique, maintaining a stable aura.

Apart from his expressionless face, he no longer exuded any menacing aura.

Judging from his appearance, his emotions are... still relatively stable...
