Not only were they shocked, but Chen Kuang himself was also puzzled.
Before this, he had never seen this swordsman who was ranked second in Canglang.
The only time I heard his name was in Xuni Pavilion. I heard that the Shen family invited Canglang commentator to act as a notarized witness and witnessed the battle between Shen Meinan and Jiang Yunqing, which created two geniuses in the family. The reputation of the name "Shen Meinan" also became very popular for a while.
——Although it seems now that it is still unclear whether this Shen Meinan is Shen Meinan.
Chen Kuang had not revealed his identity at this moment, and Jiang Yunqing should have seen him for the first time. In the latter's eyes, the name Chen Ruogu should have represented just an unknown stranger.
But Jiang Yunqing's attitude was as if he was treating a close friend with whom he already knew each other well.
For a sword cultivator, giving away one's sword is almost equivalent to handing over one's life.
Although considering the difference in cultivation between the two, normally, even if Chen Kuang got Jiang Yunqing's sword, he would not be able to kill him.
It's just that the meaning contained in this action is too unusual.
There was complete silence all around. Tang Qiusheng from Tianyin Pavilion couldn't help but ask:
"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Jiang and Fellow Daoist Chen are old acquaintances?"
The eyes of others revealed the same thought.
If they were not old acquaintances, then the scene in front of him would be a bit strange. It couldn't be that Jiang Yunqing was suddenly possessed by evil spirits, right?
Chen Kuang shook his head decisively: "I don't know Fellow Daoist Jiang. This is the first time we meet today."
His primary purpose of this trip was to keep a low profile and save his life, strive to get a stronger passive ability, and come up with a way to survive the hands of the Martial Saint in seven days.
If he attracted other people's attention at this moment, it would go against his original plan. It's not too late to set things right now.
Furthermore, he really didn't know Jiang Yunqing, and if he tried to establish a relationship with him just because he handed over a sword, he might end up...
Chen Kuang's brief thoughts were quickly interrupted.
Because Jiang Yunqing, who was not far away, hesitated for a moment, and then actually nodded.
Everyone: “…”
Chen Kuang: “……???”
Yan Hui crossed his arms across his chest, raised his eyebrows, and sneered:
"This is quite interesting. One is someone I know, the other I don't. Usually I only see people trying to curry favor with the powerful, but when they get the cold shoulder, they can only smile and say goodbye."
He said playfully, "I've learned a lot today. There are people who can do the opposite..."
Yan Hui's words were obviously saying that Chen Kuang was not giving him face, which made Jiang Yunqing's efforts go unappreciated.
Judging from Chen Kuang's apparent cultivation level and status, he really doesn't know what's good for him.
At the same time, this remark was also meant to mock Jiang Yunqing and sow discord.
Although the intention of this statement is not concealed, it does hit the pain point.
If Jiang Yunqing had thought a little more, he would immediately feel uncomfortable and have a grudge in his heart.
Chen Kuang thought that this trip to the ancient battlefield was just as he had thought. It was definitely not as simple as just gaining enlightenment on the battlefield. There must be other interests involved.
The intrigue has already begun before they even enter.
But the question is... does Jiang Yunqing, a sword cultivator, have such complicated thoughts?
Chen Kuang looked up at Jiang Yunqing. The latter was not disturbed at all by Yan Hui's words. He still held his sword flatly, and there was a hint of...sincerity in his calm eyes?
He is serious.
Chen Kuang was shocked and began to doubt himself.
Do I really know him? When did I know him?
However, after thinking about it, even if he reviewed the previous 19 years of his original life, he still couldn't find the face of the favored child in front of him.
The only connection between the two people might be... Jianlu?
Chen Kuang was stunned, and suddenly grasped a clue.
Although he didn't have much contact with the people in Jianlu - in fact, there were only two people, Tie Baiyuan and Jie Kun, the master and his disciple.
But it is definitely a deep connection.
Before his disappearance, Tie Baiyuan was the second-in-command of Jianlu at that time and the most likely candidate to become the next master of Jianlu. He held a very high status in Jianlu.
If there had been no demon sword incident, the current master of the Sword Pavilion would have been Tie Baiyuan.
Jie Kun, who sacrificed his life for the demon sword and was responsible for the lives of 100,000 people, was the most talented and most promising disciple in Jianlu's history.
If we exclude all moral factors and only consider the power of this demon sword.
Chen Kuang believed that Jie Kun had forged the true fourth famous sword, and it could even be said that... his "Tao" was successful.
The mere existence of "within the boundless space" is enough to be regarded as a divine creation.
Even a saint may not be able to achieve this level.
This man is undoubtedly a madman, but he is also a true genius.
Tie Baiyuan and Jie Kun are both very important figures in Jianlu.
Chen Kuang didn't have much friendship with Tie Baiyuan, but his younger brother Chen An and Tie Baiyuan's "daughter" Xiaohong were likely to be together, so they could be considered relatives.
As for Jie Kun, he can be considered Chen Kuang's enemy.
But the demon sword he forged was still trapped in Chen Kuang's spiritual consciousness and was bound to Chen Kuang.
When you think about it, among all the sects in Cangyuan, Chen Kuang actually has the closest relationship with Jianlu.
Although he had never even been to the Sword Pavilion...
But how did Jiang Yunqing know about this relationship? And why did he lie about knowing Chen Kuang?
Chen Kuang had no idea for a moment, and now was not the time to ask. After thinking for a while, he bowed, smiled awkwardly, and said:
"Thank you for your kindness, Fellow Daoist Jiang. I am a nobody, so how could I possibly know 'Wisdom Sword', who is ranked second in Canglang? Perhaps... there was some friendship between the elders in the past?"
