Chapter 1234: Severed Soul

Across the vast Star and Moon Plain, the evening wind blew freely.

The little gray dog was frolicking.

It ran back and forth within a radius of five hundred meters centered around Jiang Wang.

Because it was quite small, and the grass on the Star and Moon Plain was very lush, one often had to wait for it to jump up to see a bunch of swaying gray fur.

It wasn't entirely about playing; it hadn't fully absorbed the iron pulp fruit yet and was full of energy, needing to run to vent it.

As for Jiang Wang, sitting cross-legged and bathed in the pure starlight, he was naturally communicating with Master Guanyin.

Master Guanyin's voice carried a smile: "Why is it that every time I see you, little friend, you seem a bit disheveled?"

Jiang Wang's old face flushed: "I don't want to..."

Master Guanyin didn't make him too uncomfortable and changed the subject, asking, "Why did you bring a dog this time?"

"We have a bit of a connection, and it happens to be attached to me, so I'm keeping it."

Master Guanyin's tone was somewhat melancholic: "It's been a long time since I've seen a dog. Such animals don't exist in the Senhai Yuan Realm."

Jiang Wang remembered the past where the generation of monks like the yellow-faced old monk would steal other people's speckled chickens, and the bitter truth being scolded by the old monk Kuzhu as a thief... He couldn't help but ask, "Master, do you also like eating dog meat?"

Master Guanyin was clearly stunned, the sound transmitted through the starlight was somewhat intermittent: "This... you raised it... to eat?"

"That's not the case."

Of course, Jiang Wang couldn't say that he thought this was a tradition of Suspended Temple.

He only said: "Sometimes I feel that dogs are truly easily satisfied."

He glanced at the bounding little gray dog, this poor little thing, still incredibly joyful, completely unaware of what its owner was discussing.

"Knowing contentment is a great wisdom." Master Guanyin, perhaps recalling something, a sense of nostalgia spread through the starlight.

Jiang Wang asked: "Master, when you were young, were there rarely times when you were so disheveled?"

Guanyin likely thought for a moment before replying: "Suspended Temple is still very strong."

For peak figures like Master Guanyin, Suspended Temple would definitely provide focused care. And Master Guanyin's master and grandmaster, one could imagine, were also strong practitioners who wouldn't easily let others bully their junior.

With Master Guanyin's talent and background, perhaps he never suffered any major hardships until he entered the Senhai Yuan Realm.

His life before entering the Senhai Yuan Realm was probably like Chong Xuanzun's, glorious from childhood, praised all the way. Perhaps the biggest "setback" was when his younger brother suddenly rose to prominence and threatened his position as heir.

Comparing them like this, it seems quite poignant.

However, Jiang Wang neither felt self-pity nor resentment. He only smiled: "When I was an outer disciple of the Dao Academy, an ordinary mountain bandit's stronghold could make me disheveled. When I first became a transcendent, a cultivator in the Tenglong realm could make me disheveled. Now, although I still appear before you in a disheveled state, it is already because of powerhouses above the Divine Arrival realm."

His tone was firm and composed: "I believe that as long as I keep moving forward, the people and things that can make me disheveled will become fewer and fewer."

"Wonderful." Master Guanyin smiled: "This heart is like Bodhi, there should be no future worries!"

Rong State is in the northeast direction of the Star and Moon Plain, and further north of Rong State is Duanhun Gorge.

The north wind rose tonight.

Perhaps the wind from Duanhun Gorge blew into Rong State, making it so desolate.

In the large residence in Yingguang City, not a single living person could be seen.

Only in front of that gate, two tall stacks of corpses stood in silent parallel.

From the height of the corpse piles, it was evident that Zheng Fei and Li Shou had already determined the victor.

Li Shou was the winner.

Zheng Fei sat in the courtyard, pounding the ground with his fist.

"Damn it!"

"Damn it!"

He was quite a good sport; although he was angry about losing the competition, he didn't bully Li Shou because of it.

Li Shou squatted next to him, chuckling, and then feigned comfort: "Third brother, don't be angry. As the saying goes, losing is common in war. If you don't lose a few times, others will think our brothers don't know how to fight."

Zheng Fei didn't say anything. Being lectured by Li Laosi seized the opportunity, making him angrily pound the ground again, causing a resounding thud.

Li Shou looked up at the night sky: "Ah, why isn't the卦師 here yet? I'm getting sleepy waiting."

Zheng Fei spoke at this time, fuming: "They lied to us to come to the East Domain, saying it's very interesting and we can have a lot of fun. It's not fun at all!"

"Exactly, exactly. We brothers have a hard life!" Li Shou echoed, then with an envious look, he said: "Swallow must be having fun over there."

Zheng Fei said dismissively: "What's so fun about a weak little pretty boy?"

Li Shou originally wasn't talking about having fun with a person, but rather that what Swallow was doing was more fun. But with Zheng Fei saying that, he also nodded repeatedly: "The toy we met last time in Yong State was more fun! He was reasonable and could withstand being tossed around!"

Then his face fell, feeling quite disappointed: "But he doesn't seem to want to play with us..."

Zheng Fei pouted: "When he gets a beating, he'll know how formidable we are."

Just at this moment, a figure in armor suddenly descended from the sky.

"Unknown expert, you have graced Yingguang City with your presence!"

He was clad in bright armor, with a dignified appearance, and carried a Guan Dao, landing with a boom in the courtyard, his presence imposing.

He was the garrison general of Yingguang City, Jing Ye, a peak Outer Building realm cultivator!

He had previously been in charge of Yingguang City's defense. After the destruction of Yang State, the military strength of Yingguang City increased, but no other major generals in the court were willing to take over the city. Facing Qi State on the border, there was no possibility of meritorious service, but disaster would strike first.

Therefore, although many people complained that he had caused trouble for no reason, causing the entire Rong State to be on edge now, Yingguang City was still under his responsibility.

Jing Ye had always been diligent in leading his troops, especially after the destruction of Yang State, he personally patrolled the city every day without interruption.

Tonight, he accidentally discovered something unusual in this residence in the city, so he descended to investigate.

This discovery made him furious.

He didn't say anything else, the Guan Dao rotated, pulling up a blade light several zhang long, and slashed towards Zheng Fei!

Zheng Fei, sitting on the ground with his legs spread, didn't move, and even tilted his head to look at Li Shou.

Only when the Guan Dao chopped into his skull did he say in doubt amidst Jing Ye's sudden muffled grunt: "Why did he chop me first?"

Li Shou still maintained a squatting posture, his hands spread open, comparing them to Zheng Fei's size: "Maybe your target is bigger."

Over there, Jing Ye had chopped down his opponent with one strike, but was suddenly severely wounded, his shock was indescribable.

But he saw that the fat man, already covered in blood on his head, turned his head and looked at him fiercely: "Do you think I, Zheng Laosan, am easy to bully? Tell me!"

Jing Ye knew he had been overconfident tonight. It was unwise to boldly descend into the courtyard with a large army stationed in the city, relying on his martial prowess.

It wouldn't be strange to be killed silently.

He was angry at why he was so impulsive now, it seemed ever since that incident, he had...

In this dangerous situation, he suppressed his emotions, glaring at this terrifying fat man, the five internal organs roared into action, connecting to the outer star tower, his aura soaring: "On the territory of my Rong State, you dare to commit such evil deeds! Today, I will make sure you die without a complete corpse!"

At the same time, he quietly released a secret technique, attempting to contact the large army.

But at this moment, he felt the hand he was secretly making a gesture with behind his back was gently pressed.

A huge sense of fear descended upon his heart!

His hand unconsciously loosened.

Then he saw a middle-aged man with a thin face and three long whiskers appear before him, meeting his eyes.

"If you don't want to die a terrible death, be sensible."

The man dressed in scholar's robes said.
