Chapter 59 Wind Control Technique Acquired! (First Update...)

The experienced bird saw the entire room shaking violently and even wondered if it was an earthquake.

The old bird was terrified. Her body was bound by an invisible force, and no matter how she struggled, she could not reach the balcony door that was right in front of her.

Damn it!

What the hell is this?! Jiang Mingyue is really weird!

The old bird wanted to curse loudly, but no sound came out. No, no, her voice was being sucked away by the wind that surrounded her.

It was as if the sound waves had encountered an invisible wall of air, and were all reflected back, confining her to her own little world.

Sound travels through the air, so her cries for help couldn't get through!

Jiang Mingyue strolled over to admire her masterpiece.

Sorry, she unlocked the art of wind manipulation; she discovered it while meditating before going to sleep tonight.

It was probably because the amount of gratitude and support she received online was so overwhelming that she accidentally unlocked this ability.

Heaven is watching what people do; doing good deeds brings positive feedback.

The old bird was unable to move and was about to become a dead bird. She glared fiercely at Jiang Mingyue and cursed loudly.

"You bitch, do you know who I am?! If I die here tonight, believe me, you'll be killed tomorrow!"

Jiang Mingyue was speechless. This woman was a thief crying thief; she was utterly shameless.

"In a society governed by the rule of law, how can we indiscriminately shout for violence? We should be law-abiding citizens."

"Besides, I don't care who you are. I hate being threatened more than anything, especially by people who speak rudely to me. The last person who spoke ill of me was thrown into the sea to feed the sharks."

As soon as she finished speaking, the old bird felt a sharp pain all over her body, as if she were being stabbed by thousands of silver needles, especially her mouth, which was in excruciating pain.

There was nowhere to turn for help.

Half a minute later, Jiang Mingyue waved her right hand, and the old bird fell to the ground with a thud.

The old bird was dizzy and weak all over, her arms were as limp as mud, and her eyes were bloodshot as she struggled to crawl, but all her efforts were in vain and she couldn't move at all.

The balcony door is right in front of me!

Jiang Mingyue stepped forward and pressed her foot hard on the old bird's left shoulder blade. "I can crush you with ease. However, I don't usually bully women. I have a kind heart and can't bear to hurt people."

Veteran: "..."

What a kind heart! You're blatantly lying! If you've got the guts, get your foot off her shoulder blade first!

Jiang Mingyue clicked her tongue in amazement; this child was a tough nut to crack.

"I'll give you a chance to live. Tell me where your accomplices are, or you know what will happen."

Jiang Mingyue moved her feet away, squatted down, and looked at the other woman. The woman lying on the ground was slim and well-proportioned, and her appearance was also quite good.

"You are a beautiful woman with agile skills, but why did you become a thief? Since you have no blood on your hands, why not come with me and become my apprentice?"

The veteran was shocked. How did Jiang Mingyue know that her hands were clean?!

She hasn't even pressed her for answers yet!

"You have five minutes to think it over. If you miss that time, you're out of luck."

The veteran couldn't fathom Jiang Mingyue's thoughts, so he quickly asked her, "Aren't you afraid I'll betray you?"

Jiang Mingyue clapped her hands, stood up, and sat down on the sofa with ease. "You are destined to be a lone star, an orphan since childhood. Rather than colluding with villains, you should abandon darkness and embrace the light."

The veteran felt a jolt in his heart. So Jiang Mingyue knew metaphysical methods. That made sense.

If Jiang Mingyue is so amazing, why does she even need to work in the entertainment industry?!

"The time isn't up yet!"

"Faced with strength, you have no choice."

That's ridiculous!

The old bird had given up and was ready to fight back. There was nothing he could do but admit defeat; if he didn't agree, Jiang Mingyue would torture him to death.

"Okay, okay! I agree!"

Jiang Mingyue waved her right hand, and her inner energy surged again, causing the old bird to fall to its knees at her feet.

"A ceremony to formally accept an apprentice?"

The old bird grimaced in pain, having witnessed Jiang Mingyue's methods before, and dared not disobey.

"I've seen the movie."

"Okay, let's begin."

There was tea ready on the coffee table. The old bird crawled on his knees to the coffee table, enduring the excruciating pain, and poured tea for Jiang Mingyue.

The old bird respectfully handed over the teacup, saying, "Master, please have some tea."

Jiang Mingyue did not immediately reach out to take it, but stared at her intently.

The veteran couldn't figure out Jiang Mingyue's intentions, and despite his aching arms, he struggled to hold up the teacup.

Large beads of sweat rolled down the old bird's neck and face, wetting his eyelashes and eyes.

The veteran's vision was blurry, but he understood to some extent that Jiang Mingyue was deliberately testing him, perhaps even with the intention of punishment.

Even a seasoned veteran would admit defeat if their skills were inferior.

A moment later, just as the old bird was about to give up, Jiang Mingyue reached out and took the teacup, then lowered her head and took a sip.

The old bird lowered its arms and slumped to the ground.

Jiang Mingyue looked up and warned her, "You should be glad that you met me tonight. If I were really powerless, you would have fallen into an abyss and never come back up."

"You don't need to follow me at this stage. I need you to act as a smokescreen to confuse the people behind you."

This wasn't the first time Jiang Mingyue had been a master; she had taken on a bunch of disciples when she transmigrated into a book.

"If you're going to act, you have to finish the role. I won't ask, so you won't feel burdened. As for your name, I'll just call you Jiang Yi."

The old bird, no, the one who had been given a name, blinked her confused eyes. She was Jiang Yi, but would there be a Jiang Er in the future?

"Master, aren't you afraid I'll betray you?"

Jiang Mingyue glanced at her and said, "Ask yourself, instead of asking me."

Jiang Yi was startled, realizing that she was completely captivated by Jiang Mingyue's gaze.

It's like looking directly into your soul through the top of your head, being completely exposed to her.

Jiang Yi smiled bitterly. If one could live a stable, peaceful, and happy life, who wouldn't want to? Who would be willing to risk their life and constantly walk on the edge of the law?

Jiang Mingyue looked at her and said, "Jiang Yi, I'll give you a year. Do a hundred good deeds within that year to make up for your past sins. When you return to my side, I will teach you the unique skills of our sect."

When Jiang Mingyue transmigrated into the book, she studied under several masters. She decided to combine the unique skills of each school to create her own Jiang School.

Jiang Yi's eyes suddenly lit up. Whether it was a special skill or not didn't matter. What mattered was that she wanted to be with a strong person. There was no better candidate than Jiang Mingyue!

If she had fallen into the hands of someone else tonight, she might have already lost her life. It was Jiang Mingyue who gave her a chance to be reborn.

Jiang Yi finally understood why so many fans and casual viewers online were so crazy about Jiang Mingyue. She was wise and strong, had clear likes and dislikes, and was also compassionate.

Jiang Yixin accepted the offer, kowtowed and knelt in gratitude, saying, "Disciple will humbly follow Master's teachings."

Jiang Yi left 1015, crossed the balcony, and returned to 1014, her heart still unsettled.

She took a deep breath and called Huang Mao.

“I took a look around, and Jiang Mingyue is just an ordinary female celebrity, not even as good as other female idols. There weren’t many nice clothes in that box, nor any priceless gold and silver jewelry, and certainly no female ghost as you’re talking about. Your computers must have been hacked.”

Several other people chimed in on the phone, "Didn't you secretly take pictures of her?"

Jiang Yi retorted directly, "Yellow Hair, you know my principles. I'm only responsible for providing information."

"Understood. You will continue to keep watch for us. Until we receive orders from above, you will stay at the Grand Hyatt Hotel."

Jiang answered half-truthfully, "I know, but it seems there's another group of people. I don't dare to get close. I broke in by climbing over the balcony tonight, and I almost got caught."

"Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for you."

Huang Mao hung up the phone, and the person next to him asked, "Boss, what do we do now?"

The blond-haired man looked grim. "Until we receive further instructions from above, we can only continue to keep an eye on people. I'll cover the cost of these three computers myself; you can go and buy new ones first thing tomorrow morning."

Yellow Hair slapped him across the face. "Shut up! Has the old bird checked? If there's a real problem tomorrow, we'll go there ourselves."

"Does the boss not trust the veterans?"

"The veterans aren't from our side after all. The middleman found a third party, so of course our own people are more reliable."

"Will the veteran betray us and side with Jiang Mingyue?"

"No, that won't happen. Old Bird has been in the underworld for six years and his reputation is reliable. She's a coward who only loves money and will do anything with money."

On her second day in the South Island, Jiang Mingyue got up early as usual to go for a run, following yesterday's schedule: practicing dancing in the morning and studying vocal music in the afternoon.

Tan Li and Liu Mo'er, who were supposed to arrive this afternoon, will probably arrive tomorrow morning due to flight delays caused by heavy rain in Haicheng.

A tiring and painful day passed in the blink of an eye.

At 8 p.m., Jiang Mingyue left Haiyang Building and scanned the QR code for a shared bicycle once again.

Her phone screen kept going black, and after five years it finally gave out and stopped working tonight.

She's going to the mall in the city center to buy a new phone.

To avoid causing a disturbance, she concealed herself and activated the shielding function, appearing to outsiders as just an ordinary person.

Another day of missing Sister Jiang.

I managed to snag concert tickets, Sister Jiang, wait for me!

[Working stiffs may be physically at their desks, but their minds have already wandered far away.]

[Thanks to the passerby for providing photos of Sister Jiang every day]

Upon arriving at the central shopping mall, Jiang Mingyue easily found the mobile phone store on the first floor. She was used to her previous brand and didn't want the trouble of looking for a new one, so she went to the domestic brand store.

She didn't buy an expensive one; a two-thousand-yuan phone was fully functional and sufficient for her needs. She also asked the phone shop to install a SIM card. Once everything was settled, she left.

The food from dinner has been digested. The mall closes at 10 p.m., but many shops are still open.

Jiang Mingyue went straight to the basement level, hoping to find a bakery she liked.

Xiong Ye's Bakery.

The two cashiers behind the counter were watching a video, which seemed to be a clip from the All-Star Games. Jiang Mingyue heard her own voice.

"Sister Jiang, aren't you afraid of being harassed by Haiwei's fans for saying that?"

"It's already caused a stir. Jiang Jie's Weibo comment section has been flooded with criticism. Haiwei has 80 million followers, and at least 10 million of them are active fans attacking Jiang Jie."

"Sister Jiang is right. It's okay for a woman to pursue a man, but there should be a limit to how much you pursue someone."

"But those CP fans wouldn't listen; the first love CP fans kept attacking the Jiangtang CP."

"Some netizens are extreme; they don't enjoy their own lives but have the leisure to meddle in other people's affairs."

Jiang Mingyue overheard this but didn't comment. She picked out her bread and went to pay.

After exiting the mall, there were still many people dancing in the square outside.

Jiang Mingyue didn't rush to leave. She sat down by the flower bed by the roadside, drinking lemonade and munching on bread.

Experiencing local customs and culture in a completely unfamiliar place is both joyful and liberating.

It's so nice to be an ordinary person.

Suddenly a commotion broke out in front of the square, and someone shouted that someone had been murdered.

Upon hearing that someone had committed murder, the crowd in the square scattered in terror, screaming incessantly.

Around 9:30 p.m., there were still quite a few pedestrians on the street.

Jiang Mingyue's expression changed, and she grabbed the lemonade and bread and rushed toward the direction of the scream.

A man in his fifties was seen wielding a kitchen knife, slashing at people indiscriminately. Some young people dodged the attack, while some older and less mobile individuals suffered arm injuries.

The shops along the street were so frightened that they immediately closed their glass doors. Some shop owners told pedestrians to hide inside. Some of the bolder young men carried stools and mops, or even helmets, and tried to step forward to stop the old man.

The crowd was in a panic; some were crying, some were shouting, and some were calling the police.

Suddenly, the old man grabbed a seven or eight-year-old girl, and the girl's grandmother fainted on the spot.

As everyone watched helplessly as the little girl was about to be slashed, a young man suddenly appeared out of nowhere, smashing a cup in his hand against the cleaver in the old man's hand, knocking the cleaver to the ground.

The other young men who were waiting nearby quickly kicked away the kitchen knife on the ground and, taking advantage of the old man's distraction, snatched the little girl away.

The onlookers applauded and cheered. Some people who saw injustice rushed forward and subdued the old man, knocking him to the ground where he couldn't move.

The police officers who happened to be on duty nearby immediately ran over.

Seeing this, Jiang Mingyue left first, leaving behind her merits and fame.

A passerby promptly filmed the incident and uploaded it online, and the story of the South Island old man's indiscriminate killing quickly became a trending topic.

一路吃瓜网友点进去一看，气的义愤填膺，恨不能顺着屏幕进去把老头狠狠揍一顿。

[Don't let them release you again because of mental illness.]

This kind of person doesn't deserve to live; they even know how to prey on the weak.

That young man is incredibly skilled.

The other kind passersby were also very brave.

Why didn't the young woman in black wait for the police to arrive before leaving?

[They probably didn't want to be discovered; truly doing good deeds anonymously.]

Her figure looks somewhat familiar.

I have the same feeling; she looks like Sister Jiang.

[Are you guys crazy? This person's face has been photographed. She's just an ordinary girl who knows a little martial arts. Don't immediately project your image onto Jiang Mingyue.]
