104: The apprehensive peak master of Tiangu Peak
The next day.
It was still dark.
Jiang Xin immediately climbed out of bed and began to stab Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak in the back!
“Puff, puff, puff, puff!”
With yesterday's experience, his bloodletting movements were quite skillful.
Large amounts of fresh blood transformed into curse power, furiously descending upon Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak.
“Ugh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah!”
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak, who was meditating, immediately clutched his head and cried out in pain.
This curse was even more ferocious than yesterday’s.
The veins on his face instantly bulged.
This made his face extremely distorted.
“Damn it, the other party seems to have come prepared this time. Even the Magic Treasure given by Grand Elder First can only keep me with a sliver of consciousness!”
Yet, this kind of pain, maintaining consciousness, was even more tormenting!
“Uncle, save me!”
In his desperation, Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak quickly called out to Third Grand Elder.
“Whoosh!”
Third Grand Elder appeared and shouted, “Sit cross-legged and calm your mind!”
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak immediately complied.
Third Grand Elder placed his hands on his back, channeling his cultivation to suppress it for him.
“I curse! I curse again! I draw circles and curse you!”
Jiang Xin raised his head and swallowed a pile of food with special attributes, then used a knife to draw circles on his body and let blood.
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak uncontrollably spewed out mouthfuls of blood, and his aura weakened.
Third Grand Elder hurriedly increased his power infusion and sent messages to the other Grand Elders.
Soon, the other Tribulation Transcendence Stage Elders arrived.
Seeing Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak's miserable state, they were all startled.
This was clearly a curse meant to kill!
However, just as they were about to join forces to suppress it.
The curse power suddenly vanished, as if nothing had happened.
“It stopped again!”
“This cunning rogue!”
Several Grand Elders felt an urge to curse.
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak was drenched in sweat, panting like an ox.
His face had completely lost its color.
The Grand Elders simply stayed and guarded Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak.
Who knew that an entire day passed, and the curse did not descend again.
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak was constantly in a state of high tension, almost like a frightened bird.
Meanwhile, on Heavenly Moon Peak.
Jiang Xin, pulling Mu Qianqian and Ye Youying, started another barbecue party.
Mu Qianqian, wearing a small chef's apron, was busy and happy.
Various delicious dishes, fragrant for miles, were continuously churned out under her cooking.
Jiang Xin ate with oil dripping from his mouth, feeling very content.
As the saying goes, when the enemy is tired, I harass; when the enemy retreats, I advance.
Since he couldn't kill Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak in one go, he planned for a protracted battle.
Anyway, the initiative was with him; he could launch a full-force sneak attack at any time!
Ye Youying glanced at Jiang Xin, and said meaningfully, “The curse Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak received, it couldn't be your doing, could it?”
Jiang Xin immediately said righteously, “I, Jiang Xin, am an upright gentleman with the purest Physique. How could I do such a despicable thing? You are slandering me! You are slandering me!”
Ye Youying snorted, “In the entire Heavenly Nether Holy Land, only you hold the most enmity towards Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak! And, I also smell a strong scent of blood!”
Jiang Xin still quibbled, “You smelled wrong, that’s all the blood Qi emitted by my Second Senior Sister!”
Ye Youying shrugged, “Alright, it’s none of my business anyway! Besides, even if the matter is exposed, there’s Revered Master, a Void Immortal, to take the fall!”
Lan Mengdie silently ate her food, but her mind was racing.
She was somewhat moved by Jiang Xin's ruthlessness towards his enemies.
Even fellow Peak Revered Masters and Tribulation Transcendence Stage Grand Elders.
As long as they offended him, he would act mercilessly.
“Only as a friend, never as an enemy!”
This was Lan Mengdie’s evaluation of Jiang Xin... Several Grand Elders guarded Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak for several days, but no curse descended.
They had no choice but to find a room on Heavenly Solitary Peak and rest there.
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak had been on edge for the past few days, constantly tense.
At this moment, an Elder with a strange expression came to request an audience, saying, “His Highness the Holy Son heard that Peak Revered Master is unwell and specially sent someone to deliver spiritual cuisine as acondolences (condolence/sympathy)!”
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak's eyes narrowed, and he snorted, “His Highness the Holy Son? Condoling me?”
His intuition told him that Jiang Xin definitely had ill intentions.
Sure enough.
When the spiritual dishes were served, Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak immediately slammed the table in anger.
The food Jiang Xin sent consisted of things like Black Tortoise Eggs and Red-Eyed Pig Heads.
Wasn't this indirectly calling him a bastard and a pig head?
The Elder delivering the food said, “His Highness the Holy Son said that Peak Revered Master is weak, and these foods are meant to replenish what is lacking by consuming similar forms...”
“Bang!”
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak directly overturned the table of spiritual dishes.
“This brat is bullying me!”
Veins throbbed on his forehead, and the injuries he had just suppressed showed signs of losing control again.
The Elder hurriedly said, “Peak Revered Master, please calm your anger! His Highness the Holy Son probably didn’t mean that!”
Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak gasped for a while before finally calming down.
He gritted his teeth and said, “Go back and tell His Highness the Holy Son that I appreciate his good intentions, but there’s no need to trouble himself next time!”
The Elder wiped his sweat and quickly retreated.
“Insolent child!!”
The more Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak thought about it, the angrier he got, and he started cursing again.
“Could it be that this brat is the one cursing me?”
As soon as the thought arose in Master of Heavenly Solitary Peak’s mind, he immediately dismissed it himself.
“No, no, no! This brat is only in the Mahayana Early Stage. How could he even injure my uncle? It can't be him!”
...Heavenly Moon Peak.
Yue Ruyan returned to the peak.
Jiang Xin asked, “Wife, have you found any clues about spies?”
Yue Ruyan said, “I only found some small fry in the Imperial Dynasties and small Sects affiliated with the Holy Land. As for within the Holy Land itself, there are no discoveries yet.”
Jiang Xin frowned in deep thought.
It seemed the spies arranged by the Demon Spirit Clan were well hidden.
Even Yue Ruyan, with her Void Immortal cultivation, found it difficult to find flaws.
Yue Ruyan smiled at him and said, “As for you, you’ve caused quite a stir these past few days.”
Jiang Xin pretended to be foolish, “What do you mean, wife? These past few days, besides eating, I’ve been sleeping, just staying at the peak.”
Yue Ruyan, however, seemed to see through everything and said, “Still pretending in front of me?”
Jiang Xin scratched his head and gave an awkward yet polite smile.
He highly suspected that Yue Ruyan had a disciple panel.
All of his disciples’ various attributes were displayed on the panel.
Things like cultivation, Magic Treasures, Cultivation Techniques, etc., were all clear at a glance.
Therefore, everything he did could probably be guessed.
“Fortunately, this is my own wife, and her favorability is at max, otherwise I couldn't possibly keep her!”
Yue Ruyan said, “Just go ahead and do it boldly. If anything goes wrong, I’ll take care of it for you.”
Jiang Xin felt a warmth in his heart.
This was truly a treasure who protected her husband.
He reached out and embraced Yue Ruyan, saying, “With those words from my wife, this husband can rest assured!”
