there are two places on Chiyun Mountain that hide the secret orders for entering and leaving Yunding Xian Palace. One is in a small pavilion in the south of the mountain, and the other is in a pool i...In other words, Jiang Wang chose a wealthy household.

>

In most households, the attic is connected by a straight ladder. However, this house's attic has neatly built stairs.

"Woooooo..."

A small gray dog whimpered and ran up the stairs to the attic.

The stairs were relatively high, so the first thing Jiang Wang saw was a clump of dingy fur, and then the little dog seemed to "roll" up.

It seems like he was beaten somewhere and there are some mud spots on him.

This poor little thing, it looks utterly miserable.

After climbing onto the attic floor, it stopped meowing. Its little tail swayed as it waddled towards a corner where planks of wood were stacked, curling up into a ball and lying there, gently licking its paws.

At this time, Jiang Wang, who was nursing his wounds in another corner, saw the scruffy little dog and felt a pang of sympathy for it.

He thought for a moment, then took out an iron plum and tossed it forward—ever since Jiang An'an had shown a particular fondness for this fruit, he would extort a few from the magpie every time he saw it, having accumulated quite a lot over time.

The iron-flavored berries rolled right up to the grey puppy's face.

The little grey dog sprang to its feet, its tail erect, and looked around warily. It even bared its teeth menacingly, as if scaring away a nonexistent enemy.

But it clearly couldn't see Jiang Wang. It stood there, gnashing its teeth and waving its claws for a long time, but failed to find its target. Finally, it grew tired and lay back down. It didn't even glance at the unremarkable iron fruit pulp.

Jiang Wang helplessly lightly tapped, a strand of finger wind pushing the iron pulp fruit, rolling it forward again.

The little grey dog seemed to notice the strange fruit only now. Probably thinking that one fruit wasn't much of a threat, it lay lazily, extending only one paw and scratching at the iron berry.

It tilted its little head, seeming somewhat interested.

>

And with another meaty paw, he pulled it back.

>

Click, clack, click, clack.

This prized fruit rolled back and forth under the little gray dog's paw.

The little gray dog's eyes were sparkling.

Such a monotonous yet joyful scene, seeing it made Jiang Wang's mood improve.

It was just a bit silly, like it didn't even know this fruit was edible.

Here's the translation, remembering to keep HTML tags:

Jiang Wang was a kind person to the end. With a slight flick of his finger, a wisp of sword energy danced and instantly peeled open the iron fruit, causing its fragrance to waft through the air.

The little greyhound shrank back suddenly, widening its eyes as if terrified by the scene.

It should be said that it is a very vigilant little dog.

But the fruit fragrance... it's really too fragrant.

So it hesitated and moved forward cautiously, first touching it with its paw and smearing the mud onto the flesh. After confirming that the fruit was not a monster, it leaned closer to sniff it, and then took a small bite...

The tail wagged excitedly!

Its whole little head was pressed against the pulp of iron fruit, constantly opening and closing, swallowing itself!

Jiang Wang twitched the corner of his mouth, then retracted his attention and poured his mind into his own injuries.

"Eat up, grow up sooner, and fight back when someone hits you," he thought with a touch of amusement.

>

His body was covered in wounds, and every part of him ached. He could only find solace in self-deception.

Only now could he calm down and review this bizarre assassination attempt, which had been full of strange occurrences.

First comes Li Yougui.

From the beginning, he found it strange that Li Yougui would suddenly go to Hengyang County.

As is well known, Huang Yiheng's case was entirely orchestrated by him. The Zi of Qi intended to use him as an example to set the tone for the large-scale case involving Cao Jie, thus calming the domestic "new and old" dispute among the people of Qi.

With someone of Li Youjiu's caliber stepping in, the situation immediately changes. The focus shifts, making it difficult to discern who is the primary target.

After arriving, he first stated that the case was closed and assured them that he would not influence the judgment. He then dropped the news about the remnants of the Yang clan and, along with Jiang Wang, set off to apprehend them, effectively resolving both this case and the Xiao Lianqiao incident...

At that time, he had indeed persuaded Jiang Wang.

Especially after the previous Star Moon Origin trip, the two parties had already established a certain relationship. Coupled with the four major Qingpai aristocratic families and Lin Youxie's secret... Jiang Wang was indeed attracted attention.

These things, originally, could all be explained.

But after he got into trouble, it became suspicious.

And Yue Leng's half-way joining was also quite paradoxical.

This renowned Spirit Hunter was like a fresh-faced rookie, eager to make his mark. For news of a remnant of the Yang clan, he flew all night and forcefully joined the pursuit team.

The problem is, does Yue Leng still need to grab this bit of credit

Of course, Yue Leng himself also gave an explanation, saying that he was interested in the Hell's Unreachable Gate—King Qin Guang accomplished a divine manifestation in front of him and left in triumph. Yin Guan’s fame spread far and wide while Yue Leng’s reputation as a divine catcher inevitably became tarnished.

It makes sense.

But still, the same thing applies: in a situation where danger is already real, these doubts remain difficult to clear up.

And not to mention, as soon as the two mysterious figures fled into that mountain valley, those two divine pursuers immediately caught up, leaving the young prodigies of their nation stranded in an instant.

This wasn't a problem in itself.

Any divine cultivator who has descended is one who has transcended the mortal lifespan, a true "I am like a god descending" being.

It's impossible to stay by the side of a young genius all day, protecting them at all times.

Even though Jiang Wang is currently a prominent figure among the younger generation in Qi, he is not being realistic.

Here is the translated content:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Relationships like master and disciple are a different matter altogether. Even royal heirs like Jiang Wuhua and Jiang Wuqi, who have the qualifications to vie for the throne, are an exception.

Jiang Wang can't do it.

At most, powerful warriors guarding the Qi Kingdom's national defense formation would pay a bit more attention to him, ensuring his safety within Qi territory—this is also limited, after all, even those high-level warriors can't watch over Jiang Wang every day. And Jiang Wang wouldn't want that either. At most, they would establish some alarm mechanisms so that in case Jiang Wang encounters trouble, a swift response could be made.

> Out of Qi, it's also useless.

Just like Chongxuan once went out of the city to seek Su She, Chongxuan Zhuliang immediately followed. Who else could make Xiong Tu guard so attentively He himself needed to cultivate and advance from the first divine master of the East Territory towards the powerful masters of Dongzhen.

Therefore, Li Youjiu and Yue Leng went their separate ways to pursue the fleeing target. Based on the blue card mission, this was indeed not a problem.

He is not a helpless infant who can't take care of himself.

>

But they had scarcely gone when the attack took place.

I can't help but say... it's really too much of a coincidence.

Who is the problem

Besides, the mysterious pursuer who chased him, although only his outline was revealed throughout the whole process, still exposed some information.

Firstly, this mysterious person, despite having completely overwhelming strength, chose to remain anonymous and disguise their voice. This alone suggests that their true identity is something they are deeply afraid of being exposed.

This is a very important clue!

Furthermore, this pursuit, which can be called a deliberate torment, exposes the mysterious person's "hatred".

Her near-maniacal emotions were a clear indication of her hatred for Jiang Wang.

But Jiang Wang asked himself, he didn't feel that there was any enemy who would hate him so much.

Along the way, there have been powerful enemies, such as Ji Shaocheng's master Gu Huixin. And also Zhuang Gaoxian, the lord of Zhuang Guo, and Du Ruhui, the prime minister.

But if it were them, as long as they had the chance, they would definitely squash him immediately and would never play any cat-and-mouse games with him.

Unless..." A realization dawned on Jiang Wang's heart: "She doesn't hate me, she hates the Qi Nation prodigy. She hates the Qi Nation!"

A flash of inspiration crossed his mind.

Starry Sky Origin, Fangzheng Stars, Equal Country!

Under Master Guan Yan's counterattack, a muffled grunt could be heard!
