Chapter 525 Jian Ting: Smiling Family
Chapter 525 Jian Ting: Smiling Family
at the same time.
Beiguiyu, the city of the Jian family.
Countless monks gathered together to talk and discuss, and there was an endless stream of people walking on the long street. At some crucial entrances to the Jade Tower, there were more than a hundred monks gathered, and they had already laid out a web of rare treasures and killing arrays.
And in the ancient and majestic heritage palace.
On the jade table, with the aroma of tea floating in the air, more than ten cultivators were sitting scattered around. Among them, in addition to the four fairies of Tianxiang who had joined forces with Jian Qiong, there were also geniuses from the Jian family, or descendants of several side branches of the clan.
"They did not clash with Xiao Yunshu, but instead bypassed the secret realm and headed west of the city."
"Are the Bamboo and Lotus Veins really going to push Xia Yuchan to the top?"
A handsome young man pondered over his words and looked at several Tianxiang sisters with doubts and guesses.
Jian Qiong frowned slightly and shook her head gently, saying, "Senior Sister Xia is already one of the Bamboo Vein Saints, so you don't need to worry about these things."
"The several junior sisters they drove away, such as Chi Minzhi and Chen Zijun... were all alone and helpless, and there wasn't much to suggest."
"Saint Xia is quite courageous. Is she reminding us to clear the area as soon as possible?" A woman chuckled and answered, analyzing the situation carefully.
"We can take this opportunity to drive the several forces lurking in North City out of Tianxiang City... to prevent them from joining forces and posing a threat again in the future."
Hearing this proposal, Jian Ting remained calm and did not respond.
Instead, he slowly rubbed his brows, lowered his eyes and whispered, "Let's keep an eye on the Xia family's movements first. I think they're going to drive someone away soon."
"How many junior sisters are there in Xicheng now?"
Jian Qiong gently played with her sleeves, then smiled after a moment's thought, "In Xigeng's territory, Fairy Younuan's city, with Li Yan walking by her side, Xia Yuchan shouldn't have a conflict with her so early."
"In Xiding, Junior Sister Li encountered an accident while exploring the secret realm and left Tianxiang City early."
"Xi Yi, Xi Wu, and Xi Ren, the three cities are now fighting for themselves. I'm afraid they will soon be wiped out and expelled by Senior Sister Xia."
"And the land of Xigui now belongs to Kuangmengtan, Youxu Valley, and Linzhou Sect... The top geniuses of these three Qianhuan Immortal Sects have been hidden by Senior Brother Ji Meng the entire time. He clearly has the confidence to hold out to the very end. I'm afraid the real Zhuo Yu is also hiding in Xigui."
Jian Ting pondered for a moment, frowned, and asked doubtfully, "Where's Junior Sister Chu?"
"Junior Sister Hong Ning was originally in Xijia, but Xijia is now an abandoned city. Hong Ning has reunited with the Empress."
"Where are they gathering?" Jian Ting asked hurriedly with a serious expression.
Someone immediately searched the jade slip in his hand and gave the exact information: "In a secret place in Nancheng, Nanding Territory."
Jian Ting: ...
He couldn't help but be extremely alert: "Senior Brother Zhao is here too?"
"exist."
"Furthermore, Junior Sisters Ye Xi and Pu Xiu appeared in the secret realm this morning. According to the Jade Tower entrance to the secret realm... the two Junior Sisters are each guarding a city area. They must be discussing a possible alliance."
Pu Xiu...
Ye Xi...
Even if they join forces with Zhao Qing, they should not pose much of a threat.
Jian Ting pondered this for a long time before slowly relaxing. He chuckled and asked, "Now, regarding Xia Yuchan's movements, how does Senior Brother Zhao respond?"
Seeing Jian Ting continue to ask questions, everyone also showed curiosity and watched the man quietly waiting to listen.
But the handsome young man rubbed the communication jade in his hand and frowned tightly.
"The Blood-Robed Walker's response..."
He looked back at everyone with a strange expression, a little helpless: "They drove our people out of the secret realm and arranged them to go to Nanding Territory to help Pu Xiu take turns."
Jian Ting:?
The news is broken! ?
He had a bad feeling in his heart: "But what was discovered?"
"Haha, no problem."
The man laughed loudly and shook his head, then added, "Young Master, you're worrying too much. Our people were bought by Fairy Sihe and taken to the Nanjia Region. They've only been sending messages so far and haven't violated any of the trial rules."
After hearing this, Jian Ting finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He also reminded him, "Tell him to protect himself in the chaos. Maybe there will be more news in the future."
Everyone was puzzled, wondering if Young Master Jian was paying too much attention to that place.
But considering that it was the place where the Blood Robe lineage came to help, he didn't take it too seriously.
Jian Qiong's beautiful eyes flickered, and she glanced at her cousin with a slightly mischievous look. She knew that Jian Ting had been badly harmed by Zhao Qing in Longyuan, and she was still deliberately on guard against him.
"Shouldn't we also purge the surrounding forces?"
"While Xia Yuchan is stirring up trouble, it would be best if we could eliminate all the hidden dangers in the north of the city."
Another Tianxiang Junior Sister suggested softly, adding, "There are already rumors spreading in the city. With everyone in Tianxiang City retreating, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to be too timid?"
The man in charge of various news also spoke solemnly, "The Nangong clan has just made a move. Over 4,000 of them have abandoned the city and entered Junior Sister Tuoba's secret realm..."
"Moreover, the major sects gathered in Guhong Pavilion also intend to take this opportunity to urge the entire Tianxiang City to be cleared."
Having said this, Jian Ting regained his previous calmness and composure.
He chuckled and waved his hand, suppressing the discussions of several people, and said casually: "If you want to drive out those weak forces, then let them drive them out. We will retreat to Beigui and wait and see what happens."
The Tianxiang woman's expression froze, and she murmured to herself with a hint of helplessness, "The city is in chaos right now, which is a perfect time for us to eliminate the hidden dangers in the north of the city. Will being too cautious mean we miss the opportunity?"
"Missed opportunity?"
Jian Ting raised his eyebrows slightly, leaned forward and asked with a smile, "What do you all think? Why did Xia Yuchan dare to take the initiative to clear out the places? Isn't she afraid that we will attack together?"
"This... Right now, she's the most powerful. Backed by the Xia family, she has over 7,000 followers, enough to sweep across Tianxiang City."
"Besides, she was personally recommended by the protector, and many independent visitors came to help her. It was inevitable that she would be unable to suppress the voices around her."
"We can lie low, the Ye Clan can lie low, but Junior Sister Xia is now the largest force in Tianxiang City. If she also remains imprisoned, it would be a waste of her own advantages."
"Several saint ladies gathered together and conquered several cities in just half a day. Her fellow Taoists must have been extremely excited..."
In the ancient palace.
Fairy Tianxiang and the clan's prodigy exchanged a few words, expressing their respective opinions. They all believed that Xia Yuchan had the greatest power at the moment, so it was normal for her to behave in this way.
But Jian Ting disagreed.
He sneered silently, glanced at several junior sisters in succession, leaned forward slightly and said with deep meaning: "Everyone thinks that Junior Sister Xia has already gained an absolute advantage and is qualified to clear Tianxiang City."
"but--"
But what?
Puzzled glances converged, and Jian Ting stood up, pacing back and forth, muttering to himself, "Whenever you believe others are powerful enough and acknowledge their strength... it's the same as abandoning your own perception."
Jian Ting paused, then looked back with a sudden realization, and boldly speculated, "Xia Yuchan is making such a big fuss, could she have some support?"
???
"There is still something to rely on..."
"That shouldn't be the case, right?"
"She already has over 7,000 helpers around her and six saints following her. How could there be other helpers hidden?"
"Absolutely impossible!"
Jian Qiong frowned in thought, shook her head, and whispered, "She has already abandoned the city and left no manpower behind. She will probably choose to stay in the west of the city."
"Do not--"
Jian Ting said firmly, his expression extremely solemn: "She dares to act this way, she must have greater support. The help of the few saints around her is nothing."
besides! ?
Everyone looked at each other in surprise, thinking it was unlikely.
With the help of the six saints and her reliance on the Xia clan, Xia Yuchan has been able to sweep across Tianxiang without anyone to challenge her.
If this thing has hidden secrets, wouldn't it be able to crush everyone?
"Let's just wait and see. The current alliances among various parties are nothing. In the future, I'm afraid we will have to join forces with others to be qualified to face this Junior Sister Xia..."
Jian Ting strolled leisurely, giving casual warnings.
In his opinion, if Xia Yuchan did not have other confidence, she would never dare to make such a blatant sweep.
The current situation in the city has only just begun.
"May I ask, Master Jian, where does Senior Sister Xia's confidence come from?"
Jian Ting looked back at the woman quietly and sighed in his heart.
Helplessly, he whispered, "Fang Ying!"
"This generation's Tianxiang protector!?"
"Brother Jian, do you mean that Fang will also assist her?"
Jian Ting was silent for a moment, then nodded seriously. "The Five Heavenly Fragrance Sect is not in Yujing, and this generation's protector is from the Fang family, but they recommended someone from the Xia family."
"There are some secrets you don't know. Although Fang Ying is also a Bamboo Vein Saint, the original recommendation rules for Tianxiang City were based in Zhongzhou... and there were some restrictions on the ancient clans entering the city."
Jian Ting didn't say much, but just mocked and reminded: "And the Tianxiang lineage... Protectors and walkers are equivalent to sharing status and benefits."
"It is obvious that the Fang family will benefit more if the person recommended by Fang Ying becomes a walking official."
"Although the two clans are currently fighting each other, in the face of absolute interests, if the Fang clan eventually switches sides, the entire Tianxiang City will become the plaything of this generation's protectors."
Jian Ting spoke coldly, with a serious attitude.
What does it mean to protect the way and recommend someone personally?
That was the special permission granted by the Tianxiang lineage to the protector as compensation for his following Tianxiang throughout his life.
The trials of Tianxiang's journey were unlike the actual battles and conflicts among the three sects of combat cultivators, unlike the Bodhi Phoenix Emperor's consideration of one's character and talent, unlike the Purple Pearl Southern Immortal's consideration of the path of alchemy and the path of talismans, and even more unlike the Green Yuan's scrutiny of one's clan background...
With the existence of such a protector, many interests need to be considered.
"Fang..."
Everyone's heart sank deeper and deeper as they thought about all the unexpected events of last night. It was truly terrifying!
"It was Fang who first joined forces with Fenghuang Liyan, and then Xia Yuchan took action to sweep across Tianxiang!"
"Could it be that the Fang family is really pretending to be an enemy, but in fact they might turn against us at any moment?"
Jian Ting strolled leisurely, poured a cup of tea for himself and his cousin, and said with a smile: "In my opinion..."
"It's better to say that Senior Brother Fenghuang Jiang accidentally teamed up with the Fang family, affecting the situation in the entire Tianxiang City, which gave Xia Yuchan enough confidence."
Jian Qiong stared silently at Xiang Ming Qian Bo in front of her, and asked slowly, "Such a situation is indeed possible."
"According to my brother's opinion, how should we deal with this?"
"Humph--"
Jian Ting sneered and calmly returned to his seat at the head of the table. He looked around at everyone in the hall and said with a lighthearted smile, "Someone is more anxious than us."
"We are just guessing, but there is a faction that knows the entire Tianxiang City inside out and will definitely not allow Xia Yuchan to become more powerful."
Hear this.
The four beautiful ladies looked at each other silently under the long steps, and each of them already had the answer in their hearts.
A force that knows Tianxiang City inside out...
Jian Qiong nodded and whispered, "Nangong."
"With Cui Yuan walking into the city and taking charge, there's no need for us to worry too much if the Xia and Fang families are indeed involved."
"Ha ha ha ha--"
Jian Ting laughed out loud: "So for now, we just need to lie low and defend ourselves."
He extended his large hand and smiled at the many eyes that were looking at him. "Tianxiang City is in chaos, and there are four powerful forces threatening us greatly. As long as they remain in the city, we will always defend ourselves, and I think we won't be afraid of any invasion."
Always keep to yourself?
Several Tianxiang women looked strange. The Jian family was the most powerful of the ancient clans, and their influence in Tianxiang City was only second to Xia Yuchan. Yet, they had to keep themselves in prison...
Doesn't that mean Tianxiang City will have to fight until next spring?!
"I wonder which four forces they are?"
Hearing this inquiry, Jian Ting gradually restrained his smile, leaned comfortably on the spiritual velvet carpet, and began to count them one by one.
"The White Jade Palace in Guzhou is one of them."
"Facing the poisons and poisons of the Baiyu cultivators, the advantage in manpower is simply child's play."
"Junior Sister Lan Xin, who is assisted by Fairy Bone, has the most White Jade Daoists gathered there. As long as she is still in Tianxiang City, we will just wait and see."
The handsome man nodded seriously and agreed softly, "That's brilliant. Let them face the poisonous methods."
Jian Ting smiled and nodded slightly, then spoke again.
"The Xia and Fang families are the second."
"The protector of Tianxiang is from the Fang family, and the person he recommended fell into the Xia family."
"As long as the Xia and Fang families are still in Tianxiang City, we should remain stationary and wait and see what happens. Once either family is defeated and leaves, the situation in the city will become much clearer."
Jian Qiong: ...
How long will this take?
When the seven ancient tribes began to be defeated and left, the birth of Tianxiang Zouxiang was not far away.
But before she could think more, Jian Ting laughed again.
"The Nangong clan is the third."
"Emerald Yuan walks with a panoramic view of the entire situation, almost inherently invincible."
"So the Nangong clan hasn't left yet, so we should rest and recuperate, waiting for an opportunity."
"Even if we eventually face the Nangong clan head-on, all the information from various sources will have lost its value, and we will only be able to rely on our true strength to crush each other."
After hearing this countermeasure, everyone agreed with it.
Baiyudian, Xia Yuchan, Cuiyuan walking... are indeed huge threats.
Now that we are involved in the chaos in the city, it would be better for us to lie low and wait and see what happens.
Seeing his brother stop talking, Jian Qiong had a vague guess in his mind. He asked with a smile, "I wonder what this last force is?"
Jian Ting: ...
He was silent for a moment, then said with a lighthearted smile, "Although I am the Patriarch's guardian of Tianxiang City, I am also a descendant of Zhongzhou, so it is naturally difficult for me to attack Senior Brother Zhao."
"So Junior Sister Chu Hongning is still in the city, so we should avoid the battle and defend ourselves first."
Jian Ting laughed and spoke loudly on the surface, but he was secretly gritting his teeth in his heart.
As long as Zhao Qing is still there... He won't move! He won't move at all!
"Junior Sister Hong Ning?"
"Zhao Xingxing has teamed up with Ye Xi, but I don't think they pose much of a threat, right?"
Confused and confused people were heard in the hall, and Jian Qiong spoke at the right time: "Although the evil object of Lust City may have fallen into the hands of Senior Brother Zhao or Ye Xi...but it is only an ancient treasure of lust, and it won't change the situation too much."
Jian Ting:?
A mere evil creature!?
At that time, I was in Longyuan, completely in control of the situation, and victory was almost certain...
But Zhao Qing just used a sound transmission array to kill all those who deserved to die and those who didn't!
If I give him an evil object now... I can't imagine what the consequences will be.
When Jian Ting thought of this, he felt as if his mind was tightly bound, and the spiritual energy in his body began to stagnate.
Back then, Gu Qinghuan's words "The Abyss is about to open" directly overturned the entire Longyuan.
At that time, the Blood-Robed Five Elements were in control of the overall situation, and Zhao Qingdu lied and tampered with the rules of the trial. But now the Heavenly Fragrance Five Elements are not here... I don't know what will happen to those who face him.
Although Jian Ting said that he wanted to decide the outcome with Senior Brother Zhao in Tianxiang City.
But actually——
Whoever wants to fight with Zhao Qing can go ahead. He definitely won't go and would rather hide far away and watch the fun.
Jian Ting never mentioned to anyone the incident of a sound transmission array that overturned the entire Longyuan.
Apart from Xiang Qin and Zhao Qing, he is the only one in this world who knows... After all, the rest died in the Dragon Realm.
Thinking of this, Jian Ting felt even more fortunate.
After all, Hong Ning not only has Zhao Qing, but also Xiang Qin and Zhou Xiaoyi!
Although the support from Mingyue Mansion was far less than that from the Jian family, Xiang Qin's personal methods and wisdom were definitely the best in the entire Tianxiang City.
Facing Zhao Qing and Xiang Qin, it was almost like being at Longyuan, facing two people walking in blood-stained clothes!
Not to mention the mysterious Empress Si You...
Thinking of this, Jian Ting even felt a little gloating.
The torture he suffered in Longyuan...the people in Tianxiang City can finally experience it.
"Well—but after all, we are traveling with Hong Ning on the Star-Lanting Platform, so it would be inconvenient to meet and become enemies too early."
