Chapter 1221 This is not a secret

Jiang Lianzhu asked.

She didn't believe what the queen bee said, that she was here to take revenge for what happened yesterday.

Xia Ruhe shook her head.

"I don't know either. They were chased away yesterday, so there's no need to mobilize so many troops."

Elder Dong was also confused.

"Most people wouldn't forcefully attack a large sect like this. Even though the Tianxiang Sect is shameless and ruthless, this isn't their style. I'll only find out the reason later."

Jiang Lianzhu was silent, but she still had a question.

"Well, if Senior Feng Mo doesn't come this time, will the Spirit Sword Sect's Grand Elder step in?"

Xia Ruhe thought about it,

"He should show up at the last minute, right?"

What?

You also have the word "吧" in it?

Looking at Jiang Lianzhu's puzzled expression, Xia Ruhe smiled bitterly.

"The Grand Elders are generally quite old and have a short lifespan. If we take action, it will only accelerate their aging. And the loss of one of them will have a significant impact on the sect's external standing. Therefore, they mainly serve as a deterrent. If the sect is truly on the verge of destruction, they will take action."

"Then, how many supreme elders does the Lingjian Sect have? Would you mind telling us?" Jiang Lianzhu asked.

"This isn't a secret; the larger sects all know about it."

Xia Ruhe said, "We have two great elders in the Spirit Sword Sect who are still alive."

Jiang Lianzhu was surprised.

"Only two?"

She always thought that there were more than one, not to mention seven or eight, but at least three or five?

Xia Ruhe:

"Two is already a lot. Some major sects only have one, and some sects don't have any! Do you think it's so easy to break through to the eleventh realm? Don't think there are many people like this just because you saw two of them?"

Well,

It seems that two of them are indeed not a small number.

One is too few, two is too many. Well, Sister Xia, your division can be said to be well-defined, simple and straightforward.

Next, Jiang Lianzhu informed Xia Ruhe and the others of their plan, which was that President Xuan Zhan would live in the Lingjian Sect.

Xia Ruhe agreed readily.

Not to mention the second treasure, Xuan Zhan himself is at the tenth level and is considered an elder-level figure. Living in the Lingjian Sect is also a great help. Didn’t he just help the Lingjian Sect fight?

You can totally treat him as a guest elder.

Moreover, the Lingjian Sect had just lost several elders, and there were some extra resources that could be redistributed, so this was not a problem at all.

All that needs to be said has been said.

Cleaning up the battlefield is not an easy task. Jiang Lianzhu didn't want to affect them, so she said goodbye and left, going straight back to the cave.

In the cave, Liao Jiu was still meditating, and Xuan Zhan was the guardian.

Erbao was also there, looking at Xue Er and then at Liao Jiu.

Jiang Lianzhu briefly told her father what happened.

Near dusk, Liao Jiu started to move. His body moved without any wind, and he unexpectedly broke through to the ninth realm in one fell swoop!

Everyone was very happy. They were all the closest people. In this world, increasing one's strength was the most joyful thing.

To celebrate, Jiang Lianzhu took them down the mountain to Jialan City for a feast.

Servants would deliver meals to the cave every day, but it was still not as free as living on the street. I could eat whatever I wanted, and it could also help my family get to know the world as quickly as possible.

However, when it was time for dinner, she unexpectedly ran into two acquaintances.

Pang Sanniang and Hu Dawei!

These are two habitual thieves.

When she first came to Qianlong Continent, she fell into trouble with them and had two gold ingots stolen from her.

Although she got her revenge later and made a fortune, that was the result of her risky efforts and had little to do with these two people.

At this moment, she saw at a glance that the two men were squatting behind the counter of the tavern, fiddling with something.

Are you stealing money while no one is around?

She slapped the counter.

"You two, what are you doing!?"

Pang Sanniang and Hu Dawei were startled. They looked up and saw who it was. They actually didn't remember Jiang Lianzhu. Hu Dawei said,

"We didn't do anything. The board under this drawer was broken. We were just checking it out."

"Just a look?"

Jiang Lianzhu sneered, "You're clearly trying to make a killing while the shopkeeper is away! Do you think I don't know what you're up to?"

Hu Dawei was unhappy.

"What have we done? Young lady, please don't speak carelessly!"

Jiang Lianzhu picked up a cup of tea from the counter and poured it out. It suddenly turned into an ice knife. Then she took two bamboo chopsticks and cut them with the ice knife. The chopsticks broke with a sound, but the thin ice knife was not damaged at all!

Pang Sanniang's eyes were wide open.

Hu Dawei fell to his knees.

"Hero! No, Master, I really didn't do anything! This tavern was bought by me and Sanniang, and we are the owners here!"

What?

Jiang Lianzhu was stunned. She turned around and glanced at her family members who were trying not to laugh, and said:

"Are you serious? Didn't you guys specialize in stealing other people's money before?"

Hu Dawei quickly stated,

"That was in the past. Ever since we lost a big deal over a year ago, our luck has been bad. There's an old man who's always watching us. Every time we're about to make a move, he shows up and beats us up! We wanted to continue in this business, but it's impossible now! We had no choice but to pool some money with Sanniang and buy this shop together. We're running a serious business now and we're not pickpocketing anymore."

"Old man? Which old man?"

"That's right. He doesn't look that great, and he looks like a homeless person, but he's very nosy. But he's really strong. No matter how we resist, it's all in vain..."

Hu Dawei described it, and Jiang Lianzhu thought about it carefully. Isn't this what madness is?

Does he have the time to care about such things?

But if you think about it again, this is not impossible.

Whatever a weirdo does, he naturally has his reasons.
