632 Come With Me
Zhu Asi saw through Zhu An’an’s thoughts and immediately chuckled.
“Don’t think too much about it. I can come in because I’m quite skilled when it comes to array formations. As for you, you were still a mortal without much of a cultivation base twenty years ago. Now, you’ve actually grown to this stage. It seems that you’re quite mysterious.”
The next moment, Jiang Ming took a step forward and stood in front of Zhu An’an. He asked with a vigilant look, “What do you want? Zhu Asi, let me tell you, seducing underage girls is illegal!”
Zhu Asi was rendered speechless.
He could not help but rub his temples. He said with a sigh, “How did you even jump to that conclusion? I am the top prodigy of the outer sect of the Zhuyan Palace, as well as the young master of a noble family in the Ancient Zhuyan Empire. Do you think I would do such a despicable and shameless thing?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Ming nodded very seriously. He did not like Zhu Asi, no matter how hard he tried not to be prejudiced. He always felt that Zhu Asi was rather perverse and would exploit young women.
Zhu Asi was rendered speechless again.
“Your current situation is not bad, but Elder Mo said that you will encounter many dangers in the future. You might even encounter a crisis in the Dragon Marquis Kingdom that you can’t fight against, so I came to ensure your safety. However, there is a prerequisite. You must go to the Long family and reach an agreement with them. Now, there is another force on the way to the Long family with the Dragon Sword. If you are a second too late, it is very likely that you will miss this opportunity!
Hearing this, Jiang Ming’s eyes widened.
“Impossible! The Dragon Sword is in my hands, how can there be a second one?”
“I’m not sure about that, but I do know that the person who went to the Long family this time is from the royal family of the Daliang Kingdom. His name is Liang Kuan, and his real identity is—”
“Murong Kuan!”
Hearing this, Jiang Ming immediately took a few steps back.
Northern Yan’s people were back!
Were these people finally planning to make a move?
“No wonder the Qingmiao Kingdom is so antsy. They are afraid that the Daliang royal family’s plot will succeed and pose a threat to their plan to become the eighth greatest kingdom! How cunning and manipulative! What kind of royal family are they? They are not classy and noble at all!”
Zhu An’an snorted coldly.
Jiang Ming was equally disdainful, but he understood no matter what people said about the royals, they were too powerful to care.
But soon, his eyes turned cold.
“Since they have the audacity to replicate the Dragon Sword, I will destroy their plan. In any case, the real thing is with me…”
“What they have is also authentic.” Zhu Asi said.
Jiang Ming was rendered speechless.
“But the real one is with me. Where did Murong Kuan get this Dragon Sword?”
“This is beyond my knowledge. You can go and investigate, but I can tell that they have many reasons for wanting to cooperate with the Long family. One of them is to deal with you. Back in the General’s Tomb, you didn’t bring much pressure on the Murong family of Northern Yan and the others, but you were too much of a threat. They would definitely get rid of you as soon as possible to prevent you from becoming a threat to them.”
Jiang Ming’s actions had put a lot of pressure on the other people in the capital. Many people were afraid that he would become stronger and be a massive threat to them.
Jiang Ming could not help but frown.
“Ugh! These guys aren’t thinking about how to become stronger. Instead, they just want to get rid of me! These are such baseless accusations as well. Since when did I become a huge threat to anyone?”
“To the vast world of immortal cultivation, you are indeed nothing special. Even if the Flowerfruit Mountain behind you really surfaced, it would not do any harm as a whole. The main problem is that while your current strength seems ordinary, it’s actually extraordinary. At least to the people here, you’re indeed a hidden danger,” Zhu Asi said slowly. “After all, they’re not some ancient sect, and they’re not an all-powerful existence. It’s normal for them to be afraid of you. But all of this has nothing to do with you. The Zhuyan Palace will ensure your safety, especially me. I will soon advance to the Deity Transformation Realm. I won’t be invincible, but I can at least ensure your safety—”
“How did you break through to the peak of the Soul Formation Realm?”
Jiang Ming frowned. Zhu Asi’s aptitude was not bad. He had reached the peak of all the previous realms, but his aptitude should not be enough to reach the peak of the Soul Formation Realm.
According to Jiang Ming’s previous guess, Zhu Asi’s aptitude was at most at the Insightful Emptiness Realm. Moreover, the Insightful Emptiness Realm was also at the level of a Holy Lord in this era.
Was Zhu Asi’s aptitude really that terrifying? How could Gongye Jiu not have foreseen this?
“Hahaha, everyone has their own secrets. You have your own secrets, and so do I. Don’t be too nosy. It might not be good for you.”
Zhu Asi spoke in a particularly serious tone, which caused Jiang Ming to frown. After a while, he nodded and said, “Then tell me what I should do now. Should I shake off these people? The others are easy to deal with, but the fox demons of Qing Qiu are not easy to fool.”
Jiang Ming felt rather awkward.
The corners of Zhu Asi’s mouth twitched. How could he not see through Jiang Ming’s intentions? He wanted him to go out and stop the people from Qing Qiu.
“Don’t worry. With me around, the two of them won’t be able to hurt you.”
“Why? Both of them are the top talents of Qing Qiu. Although you are a prodigy of the Zhuyan Palace, you shouldn’t underestimate them, right?”
“Haha, you’ve underestimated me. My strength isn’t something you can imagine, and the depth of my foundation is far beyond your imagination.”
Zhu Asi laughed, no longer as cold as before. It was obvious that his attitude toward Jiang Ming had changed drastically.contemporary romance
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows a few times and said seriously, “I understand. You are in charge of dealing with the people of Qing Qiu, while I will take someone with me.”
“Who is it?”
“The princess of the Qingmiao Kingdom.”
The princess’s eyes widened in the next second. She looked at Zhu Asi, who was approaching her, and shouted angrily, “How impudent! How dare you offend me?”
Before she could finish, a slap landed on her face.
“Stop being ridiculous. Come with me, Princess.”
