In the afternoon, under the bright sunshine, Jiang Wanwan came alone to the top of Dongshan Mountain, took out several top-grade spirit stones, and began to cultivate.
She quietly sensed the flow of spiritual energy around her, immersing herself in the world of cultivation.
Suddenly, a powerful surge of merit energy rushed in like a tidal wave, continuously flowing into Jiang Wanwan's body. This power was even greater than before, and with the infusion of merit energy, the spiritual energy within her body rapidly increased, galloping like a wild horse.
Jiang Wanwan was overjoyed, as she felt her cultivation level increasing at an astonishing rate.
Jiang Wanwan exclaimed excitedly, "Master, I'm almost at the Foundation Establishment stage!" Her beautiful peach blossom eyes sparkled with joy, like the bright stars in the night sky.
At this moment, Elder Xia floated out from the space. He stood with his hands behind his back, smiling as he looked at Jiang Wanwan and said, "Well done, girl. The reason your cultivation has increased so quickly this time is because you saved many lives and gained the recognition of this world and its Dao."
After hearing Elder Xia's words, Jiang Wanwan's heart stirred. She suddenly realized that it had been almost half a month since she returned from the border. The matter with the Black Dragon Group should be coming to a conclusion soon, shouldn't it?
Just then, Jiang Wanwan came down from Dongshan Mountain and saw Yan Ziyan practicing boxing with Jiang Dahe in the courtyard. She stood quietly to the side, watching the two spar back and forth in the courtyard.
Although Yan Ziyan was mostly suppressed by Jiang Dahe, his actions and reactions clearly showed that this young man had extremely high talent in martial arts.
Jiang Wanwan quietly observed Yan Ziyan, secretly admiring him.
In the evening, Jiang Wanwan's family and Yan Ziyan sat around the dining table for dinner.
At that moment, a news report was broadcast on television, detailing the arrest of key members of the Heilong Group. This event was like a bombshell, causing a huge uproar within the public security, procuratorial, and judicial systems of Yuncheng.
Shockingly, five public officials were also involved in the case, one of whom held the important position of deputy director of the Public Security Bureau.
Unfortunately, the deputy director, Wang Zheng, chose to commit suicide out of fear of punishment. It is said that he jumped from a building late at night and was not discovered by sanitation workers until the early morning.
"Wow! The Jiang family's kid is pretty impressive. He got into a big deal right after graduation. No wonder he's a descendant of a military family."
Yan Ziyan watched the news on TV and couldn't help but sigh.
"Do you know Jiang Qinian?" Jiang Wanwan stared at Yan Ziyan curiously.
"Yes, I know him! We grew up in the same compound, but how do you know him?"
"I ran into him a while ago and helped him with a small favor!" Jiang Wanwan said casually.
Yan Ziyan carefully examined Jiang Wanwan, wondering why, since they both shared the same surname, Jiang Wanwan's face looked somewhat familiar.
"Take a packet of this in your bath tonight. It can help clear your meridians and improve your physical condition." Jiang Wanwan handed Yan Ziyan two packets of her own prepared medicine.
Since this person wants to learn martial arts, I'll give him a hand!
Yan Ziyan happily accepted the medicine packet, carefully cradling it in his hands. He turned and walked towards the house, his steps light and steady, revealing an indescribable excitement and anticipation.
For the past two days, Yan Ziyan has been staying at the Jiang family's house. As time goes by, he increasingly realizes that the Jiang family is far more complex than it appears on the surface.
Although Jiang Dahe and Tian Cuicui have ordinary appearances, their martial arts skills are truly amazing.
Yan Ziyan secretly speculated that their martial arts must have originated from a secret family lineage, and that this lineage had been passed down for generations and had a profound foundation.
However, what surprised Yan Ziyan the most was that the Jiang family did not show any rejection or wariness towards him. On the contrary, they seemed quite happy to have him by their side, and even took the initiative to teach him some martial arts skills.
This trust and kindness filled Yan Ziyan with gratitude, and he thought that he would definitely repay the Jiang family when he returned to the Yan family in the future.
The next morning, Yan Ziyan woke up and immediately felt the changes within his body. To his delight, he discovered that since using the medicine packet Jiang Wanwan had given him, not only had his meridians significantly improved, but his physical strength had also become much greater, and even the hidden injuries he had suffered during previous missions had mostly healed!
This thrilled Yan Ziyan, who couldn't wait to share the good news with Jiang Wanwan.
So, he arrived at Jiang Wanwan's room early in the morning to wait for her to appear.
However, when he arrived there, he was surprised to find that the door to Jiang Wanwan's room opened by itself and then slowly closed.
Yan Ziyan couldn't help but wonder: "Could it be that Jiang Wanwan left early? But why would the door open and close by itself?"
He waited at the door for most of the day until the sun was high in the sky before he learned from others that Jiang Wanwan had already gone to Dongshan before dawn.
"Who opened the door?" Yan Ziyan wondered to himself, but didn't dwell on it. He decided to put these questions aside for now, change into some light clothes, and head to the fields to help the Jiang family till the land.
Just as Yan Ziyan turned to leave, he caught a glimpse of something unusual at the window of the next room. Upon closer inspection, he discovered a wooden hairpin floating in mid-air, bobbing up and down.
Yan Ziyan's heart raced instantly, and he couldn't help but lean closer to the windowsill, wanting to take a closer look.
But just as he stood still by the window, the wooden hairpin suddenly vanished into thin air!
Yan Ziyan rubbed his eyes hard, wondering if he was seeing things. Looking into the room again, everything had returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Yan Ziyan was very confused and began to doubt whether what he had seen and heard was real.
Could it be that using Jiang Wanwan's medicine packet caused him to hallucinate? Or perhaps there are truly some inexplicable and strange phenomena in this world? A multitude of questions flooded his mind, causing Yan Ziyan to fall into deep thought…
After agreeing to let Lin Weiguo stay at the Jiang family home, Jiang Wanwan personally selected a quiet and comfortable room for him.
Not only that, she also made a special trip to find her father, Jiang Dahe, and Tian Cuicui, and had a frank conversation with them.
Surprisingly, Jiang Dahe and Tian Cuicui understood and readily accepted Lin Weiguo's existence.
They made no mention of the topic of the separation between humans and ghosts, but instead inquired with concern about whether incense should be offered to Lin Weiguo.
This tolerant and accepting attitude warmed Lin Weiguo's heart and filled him with gratitude. It made him feel as if he had returned to the time when he had the love and care of his family.
When Lin Weiguo learned that Jiang Beixing was following Jiang Wanwan in cultivation so that he could be with his beloved for a long time, he resolutely decided to give his wooden hairpin to Yang Mei.
At that moment, he was alone in the room, examining the wooden hairpin, so engrossed in it that he was completely unaware that someone was spying on him from outside the window.
