Chapter 2151: Journey Through the Human World

The wine table was very silent.

In the ice cups, cold flame-like wine liquid seemed to flow, blurring people's expressions a little.

Stealing the Tai Xu Gou Yu wasn't a big deal, because all the identities of the Tai Xu Ge members were registered with the Tai Xu Dao Zhu. But right now, how to speak?

Xie Ai looked at Jiang Wang, Jiang Wang looked at Xie Ai.

Time seemed to freeze.

"I need to explain something to you." Jiang Wang said calmly, "Na Lan Long Zhi and I have met only three times today. The first time was on the Mi Jie battlefield, the second time was in the Dragon Palace. In the previous two times, we didn't even speak. I fundamentally don't know why he came to Snow Country, nor do I know that he wanted to steal your things. In my life, I most hate sneaky behavior. Next time, if I catch him—"

"Guest official?" A waiter from Wen Xian Lou walked over, holding a small box in his hand. "A guest just asked me to give this to you."

Neither Jiang Wang nor Xie Ai spoke. They both saw what was inside the box.

In the waiter's eyes, Xie Ai didn't exist. He only saw this upright figure in a green shirt, with a jade crown holding up his hair and a white jade pendant hanging at his waist, sitting there properly alone... There were also two cups of wine in front of him. This person was looking carefully ahead, and yet it was empty in front.

He looked quite good, dressed not vulgarly either, how could he seem to have a mental illness?

The waiter muttered as he put the box down, then left quickly in three steps.

Jiang Wang casually opened the box, took out his missing Tai Xu Gou Yu, and saw the slip of paper at the bottom of the box. Written on it in childish handwriting was—

"Just a joke, don't mind."

It seemed that meeting Na Lan Long Zhi was not an accidental encounter.

Before he even sat down, his Tai Xu Gou Yu had already been stolen.

This trip to Snow Country seemed to be getting more and more complicated...

"This slip of paper, do you think he wrote it to you, or to me?" Jiang Wang asked.

Xie Ai glanced at him faintly, "I can't make jokes."

"Then it was written to me." Jiang Wang casually burned the paper slip, carefully checked the Tai Xu Gou Yu, confirmed there were no problems, then picked it up and showed it to Xie Ai. "Let's reintroduce ourselves. Tai Xu Ge member Jiang Wang, it's a pleasure to meet the Winter Emperor."

His previous explanation might not have convinced Xie Ai.

But he didn't need to explain too much.

The strength of Tai Xu Ge was far from comparable to the initial Tai Xu Pai, but the advantage lay in the fact that Tai Xu Ge at this time received support from various sides of the world and occupied the general trend of the human race—this was the foundation for solving problems.

After a period of silence.

Xie Ai said, "The Tai Xu Jiao Lou is in Xue Ji Cheng, you came to the wrong place."

Jiang Wang put away the Gou Yu, "Since I can see the Winter Emperor, then it doesn't count as coming to the wrong place."

"Still wrong!" Xie Ai said, "I'm too lazy to look at the world's big trend. National decisions, I always only execute, I don't inquire. If you want to represent Tai Xu Ge and talk about something, you should go find Fu Zhen Jun."

Jiang Wang said, "I believe you are still sitting here, not merely because Na Lan Long Zhi has already escaped. Between you and me, besides the Tai Xu Jiao Lou, there must be something else we can talk about."

There was no joy or anger on Xie Ai's face, "For example?"

Jiang Wang calmly extended his right hand. In his palm floated a cluster of Shan Fu Qing Yun. On top of the Qing Yun, it supported a miniature palace complex. Although it was only slightly larger than his palm now, the details within were clearly visible.

"Cloud Top Immortal Palace?" Xie Ai still had no waves, only saying, "It's not easy for you to repair it to this extent. It seems the wine building you opened in Xing Yue Yuan makes a lot of money."

The Bai Yu Jing wine building was full of guests, so of course it made money, but to supply the repair of the Cloud Top Immortal Palace, that would be a fool's dream. The changes in the Cloud Top Immortal Palace over the years were all due to Jiang Zhen Ren's busy work in various heavens and myriad worlds, earning back brick by brick and tile by tile. The hardship involved was beyond the comprehension of outsiders.

"It's still far from 'repair'." Jiang Wang sighed, "Tens of thousands of years have passed, and the Immortal Palace is exhausted and turned into smoke. Now the Cloud Top Immortal Palace has no neighbors, and the people who inherit the Immortal arts also have no old friends. It can be said to be desolate!"

Seeing that Xie Ai didn't continue, he continued on his own, "You ascended the peak twice and are the reincarnation of Frost Immortal Monarch. Frost Immortal Monarch completely restored the Lin Dong Immortal Palace back then and used it to rampage in all directions. I wonder if you have any experience that you can impart to a junior?"

Xie Ai said lightly, "It seems that although you have the inheritance of the Immortal Palace, you don't understand the fundamentals of the Immortal Palace, nor do you understand me."

"How so?"

"What do you think is the relationship between the Nine Great Immortal Palaces?"

As soon as Xie Ai asked this question, Jiang Wang immediately understood that the so-called Nine Great Immortal Palaces were not what he had imagined as 'united hearts, co-creating the glory of an era'. It was probably exactly the opposite, with endless mutual attacks and killings. Just like the various overlord countries now, fighting for a single 'Six Harmonies Heavenly Son'.

"Winter Emperor adult." Jiang Wang's expression was serious. "Even if the Nine Great Immortal Palaces were enemies, once you lived and I died. Now they are all dust in history, lonely souls and wild ghosts left from the same ancient era. Not to mention the same branch veins, at least they should mourn the death of a companion. Helping the Immortal Palace find a way out is not helping me, but helping yourself. If you want to rebuild the Lin Dong Immortal Palace once again, I am also very willing to contribute my strength."

"Very wonderful persuasion. But as I said, you don't understand me." Xie Ai said calmly, "Although I successfully reincarnated, preserving most of my memories and successfully awakening is already a stroke of great luck. Much of my knowledge was left in the source sea, dissolved and lost, and cannot be found back. It's not that I don't want to help you. Regarding the rebuilding of the Immortal Palace, I don't remember anything, let alone having a grasp of it."

"Oh... like this." Jiang Wang played with the Immortal Palace in his hand.

He wanted to confirm whether Xie Ai was the reincarnation of Xu Qiu Ci. This Immortal Palace secret was the best method. Because this was a hidden secret lost in the era, shared only by the holders of the Immortal Palace inheritance, and he indeed had an Immortal Palace, which could verify the truth!

But Xie Ai's statement about losing a lot of knowledge through reincarnation could also explain it. After all, no one knew what the process of reincarnation was, and it was also impossible to ask Xie Ai about the hidden secret of reincarnation.

The person in front of him was the first successful reincarnator in history, possessing the legendary color of returning from the source sea. Naturally, she had the right to explain the words "reincarnation".

But no matter how she explained, no matter how reasonable, without revealing the mystery of the Immortal Palace, Jiang Wang could not recognize the identity of this Frost Immortal Monarch.

While Jiang Wang was deep in thought, Xie Ai spoke again, "However, I can help you see what deficiencies your Immortal Palace still has. What you said is right, in this era, the holders of Immortal Palace inheritance are all lonely souls and wild ghosts, and they should mutually light some bonfires. But the knowledge of the Immortal Palace is lost too much, I only have some residual impressions, only enough to do these."

"Get up and listen to the lecture! Ask questions anytime!" Jiang Wang called out to Bai Yun Tong Zi, who was staying in the Wu Fu Hai.

Bai Yun Tong Zi was an existence similar to an Immortal Spirit, and also retained many fragments of lost memories from the Immortal Palace era. Jiang Wang did not plan to expose him in front of others, so he used himself as a knowledge transfer station. While Xie Ai was lecturing, he would from time to time convey Bai Yun Tong Zi's questions, pretending to be his own thoughts.

Xie Ai lectured on about eight or nine problems existing in the Cloud Top Immortal Palace, showing her extraordinary understanding of the Immortal Palace, then actively stopped, "Only these, I can't see more. For the current me, the Immortal Palace is already a relatively strange domain."

Bai Yun Tong Zi also confirmed in the Wu Fu Hai, "Immortal Lord old master, everything this woman said is correct. Some things I understood were wrong. As soon as I heard her speak, I remembered! Who is this woman? Let her speak a few more sentences. Does she have an Immortal Spirit on her side? Let's call them out to play together—"

Whether Xie Ai's understanding of the Immortal Palace was true or false, this perhaps could explain that she was indeed the reincarnation of Xu Qiu Ci.

A heavenly pride whose inner mansion realm was shattered by Zhao Ru Cheng with one sword at the Yellow River Meeting, who then awakened memories and rapidly progressed in a very short time, and re-ascended the Path through a closed country, locked border, become Dao war. Besides the reincarnation of an absolute peak expert, it is indeed very difficult to have other explanations.

But Jiang Wang still wanted to know, beyond the Immortal Palace secret, how did Snow Country confirm Xie Ai's reincarnated identity?

He also very much wanted to know the details of the war a few years ago when Xie Ai became Dao.

In Snow Country, it was impossible for someone to close the gate and lock the country to hunt down Fu Huan's direct disciple—unless instructed by Fu Huan himself. So what made Fu Huan change his attitude?

These things definitely couldn't be asked of Xie Ai.

"Your guidance truly benefited me a lot!" Jiang Wang repeatedly thanked her. "Even just this guidance, my trip to the northwest is not in vain."

Xie Ai said lightly, "I hope what makes you feel that your trip was not wasted is the scenery of Snow Country, the food of Snow Country, and the people of Snow Country, not the Immortal Palace that has already gone with the era."

"The scenery of Snow Country is indeed charming!" Jiang Wang paused for a bit, planning to modify some beautiful descriptive words.

"Never mind." Xie Ai had already raised her hand to stop him. "You can cultivate to this realm at a young age. You are not a person who will stop to appreciate the scenery—speak up, what else do you need to find me for? If it's only for the Immortal Palace, you don't need to come here today. Finding me is no different from finding Qin Country's Xu Wang. We are all not familiar with you. Even if he has the complete Cause and Effect Immortal Palace in his hand, his understanding of the Immortal Palace is greater than mine."

To say 'not familiar' so straightforwardly is really a bit hurtful.

Jiang Ge Yuan was no longer the same as before. He listened as if he didn't hear, and simply got straight to the point, "Zhao Wu Yan, who was once instructed by Zhen Jun and cultivated in the Long Men Book Academy in Tian Bei Xue Ling, was bound in a Dao Cocoon at the beginning of the year and has not come out until now. Does Zhen Jun know about this matter?"

"I know." Xie Ai did not evade, and said calmly, "I have already seen the task in the Tai Xu Scroll."

This was an answer that surprised Jiang Wang, "Tai Xu Scroll?"

"So I said you found the wrong person." Xie Ai's voice was again faint and cold, "In the entire Snow Country, no more than three hundred people currently use the Tai Xu Illusion. I am one of them."

Jiang Wang asked, "Your meaning is, it is Fu Zhen Jun who is refusing the Tai Xu Illusion?"

Xie Ai said, "You have a pair of eyes, you have a pair of ears, you can go and see, go and listen, but sometimes they will also deceive you."

She calmly looked at Jiang Wang, "Just like you came to ask me about Zhao Wu Yan's matter, have you thought about why Yao Fu didn't come? Is it because his strength is not as good as yours, or his fame is not as good as yours, or his feelings for Zhao Wu Yan are not as good as yours?"

Jiang Wang was unable to answer this series of questions.

And Xie Ai continued, "What you know, he knows. What you don't know, he also knows. Do you think you are particularly smart?"

At this moment, in that mournful and fragile beauty, Jiang Wang saw a kind of dead silence and coldness.

But he only calmly looked back.

He didn't think he was particularly smart.

He only needed to seek the truth.

"A good piece of advice." Xie Ai said.

Jiang Wang said, "Please speak."

"The Immortal Palace is not the future." Xie Ai said, "You are already standing at the forefront of the era's tide, yet you are turning back to pick up relics in history. This is really hard to say is wise."

Then Xie Ai disappeared.

Just like the crushed ice under her feet that had melted into the ground at some unknown time.

Jiang Wang loosened the Tai Xu Gou Yu in his hand and also stopped the command he was about to give to the Tai Xu Ge.

He knew this was a warning and a boundary. Out of respect for the identity of a Tai Xu Ge member, Xie Ai would only go this far. Xie Ai no longer mentioned Zhao Wu Yan, perhaps because she didn't want to, or perhaps there was no need to.

He had to admit that what Xie Ai said was very reasonable.

If there was a problem with Xie Ai's point regarding Zhao Wu Yan, Yao Fu would have come to the door long ago.

But this was completely unable to shake his idea. Yao Fu was Yao Fu, and he was he. Yao Fu had his reasons for not doubting, and he had his thoughts for doubting.

These existing facts were still unable to make him completely believe.

As for Xie Ai's last "good advice"...

In this era, his path would no longer be influenced by anyone.

The vast starry river, endlessly vast, with every breath Jiang Wang sinks, stepping forward step by step, stepping towards that boundless universe.

Of course, this is the Tai Xu Illusion.

He relied on the authority of a Tai Xu Ge member and walked towards the high place that Tai Xu Walkers could not reach: "Tai Xu Ge member Jiang Wang, please see the Tai Xu Dao Zhu!"

In the vast void, an indifferent voice rang out: "Please explain your intention."

Jiang Wang raised his hand and took out the Tai Xu Gou Yu. This thing could shuttle between illusion and reality and was a treasure for communication between the two sides. "My Tai Xu Gou Yu was just stolen, and I don't know if someone has planted something within it, so I came to report it. Please, Dao Zhu, check it and don't let outside thieves seize the opportunity to sneak into our Tai Xu Illusion!"

The identity of a Tai Xu Ge member was honorable, and their position was high and powerful, but in Jiang Wang's view, no authority could compare with the opportunity to talk to the Tai Xu Dao Zhu. This was a being who transcended existence, a true transmission, surpassing all things in the world!

In principle, the Tai Xu Dao Zhu was absolutely neutral, absolutely fair, and absolutely emotionless. It was impossible for him to give anyone special treatment, and there was no emotion towards the Tai Xu Ge members. But how to say... As long as the sun still emits light, you can feel warmth, it just depends on how to utilize it!

How could the Tai Xu Dao Zhu not manage the safety of the Tai Xu Illusion?

As expected, as soon as the words fell, a clear light descended and covered the Tai Xu Gou Yu.

"No residual traces found, it is safe." The voice of the Tai Xu Dao Zhu rang out.

"The Tai Xu Gou Yu is so important, yet I lost it so easily, causing the Tai Xu Illusion unnecessary risk. My strength is not enough, I am truly ashamed!" Jiang Ge Yuan severely criticized himself, then said, "But cultivation is not achieved in one morning or evening. My strength cannot be improved overnight. May I ask the Tai Xu Dao Zhu, is there any method that can help me better guard this thing? I mean—a suitable secret method is also fine."

In the void, an indifferent reply echoed: "Even if the Tai Xu Gou Yu is lost, it will not affect the Tai Xu Illusion. It only affects your own use of authority."

"It has such a big impact!" Jiang Wang exclaimed, "This will lead to my inability to work better for the Tai Xu Ge, thus affecting the development of the Tai Xu Illusion! Respected Dao Zhu, this matter cannot be ignored. We must find a way to eliminate the possibility of the Tai Xu Gou Yu being lost."

The Tai Xu Dao Zhu replied: "This is your responsibility."

Jiang Wang was not discouraged and said again, "Na Lan Long Zhi's intention is unclear, and it is difficult to distinguish between good and evil. Perhaps he didn't just steal my Tai Xu Gou Yu. Can Dao Zhu slightly check and see where he is at this moment and what he has on him? If it's our things, we must chase them back."

The Tai Xu Dao Zhu replied: "I have no right to interfere with the present world."

"I deeply regret it," Jiang Ge Yuan said.

The voice of the Tai Xu Dao Zhu disappeared directly.

Slowly finishing a pot of wine, eating all the ordered Snow Country food, paying the bill, and leaving Wen Xian Lou, Jiang Wang walked alone on the ice-carved long street.

There were too many questions in his heart, and he needed too much information.

It was a pity that the Tai Xu Dao Zhu was too inflexible and actually couldn't help him see exactly what Na Lan Long Zhi had stolen. From that stolen object, he could definitely get a lot of information about Xie Ai.

Now he could only rely on himself...

In Snow Country, he was not familiar with the land. This was also an extremely closed country. If he were to start building an intelligence network from now on, he was afraid that by the time his term as a Tai Xu Ge member ended, he would not be able to get the information he wanted.

Snow flew on the ice street, and a figure in a green shirt walked alone.

Jiang Wang's hands were behind his back, and in his virtual clenched fist, there was a translucent amber. Light and shadow constantly changed within it, and sound patterns echoed back and forth like waves.

It was not just a spirit domain, but a world.

Cultivating in seclusion for three years, all three realms are real.

This speed was not to say that there were no ancients before him, but it was certainly rare in history.

Now that Jiang Wang had manifested the Three Realms, he himself found it hard to describe his power.

Even in a big country like Snow Country, only Fu Huan and Xie Ai could bring him danger. In the vast snow domain, two people stood alone.

In the Cloud Top Immortal Palace, Bai Yun Tong Zi climbed onto the roof of the Yun Xiao Ge, looked up at the high sky, and the sky dome of the Wu Fu Hai was densely covered with stars at this moment!

He grinned, appreciating this beautiful scene. He knew that it was the Immortal Lord's Immortal thought.

At this moment, in the entire Han Hua City, countless voices surged in, and countless pieces of information were diverted in the vast starry river of Immortal thought. The Immortal thought analyzing the information at extreme speed was like twinkling stars!

At the height of the endless starry river, stood an Immortal virtual shadow. It was dressed in dazzling divine clothes, majestic and boundless.

The stars in the sky flickered together, an absolutely unseen scene in the human world. Bai Yun Tong Zi only kept it in mind after seeing it once.

Good wind and snow, a True Person's world tour!

Overlooking the ice city flying white, it was truly a beautiful snow scene.

Jiang Wang walked lonely among them, adding a touch of layer to the snow color.

People saw the green whisk stroking across the long street, the person in the painting was even more like someone from outside of heaven.

What Jiang Wang was doing at this moment was very simple and also very foolish.

He was collecting all kinds of information given out by tens of thousands of people in the entire Han Hua City at this moment, and extracting the intelligence he needed from it—this was an absolutely vast project, and the vast majority of it was redundant and useless messages. Such as "Have you eaten?", "The weather is really good today".

Even a True Person's Yuan Shen could fundamentally not handle it separately.

So he activated the Immortal art · Immortal thought star river.

When he traveled with his sword in various heavens and myriad worlds, listening to the subtle self-narration of the vast universe, this Immortal art helped him capture too many valuable clues.

But until the complex and incomparable information surged in, causing the Immortal thought to flicker intensely, he just remembered that he had overlooked some problems—

For example, the words "dragons and snakes mixed" and "all kinds", did he truly understand what they meant?

For example, could he really face the evil of human nature that was happening every moment?

For example, in Snow Country, there were specialized male buildings...

Compared to those barren star domains deep in the universe, human life might be much more complex.

Bai Yun Tong Zi only saw the Immortal thought star river suddenly flash and then flash more and more rapidly, happily clapping his hands and cheering.

His Immortal Lord old master, however, was on the silent, cold ice street, his face suddenly green and then white.
