Chapter 1087: The Negotiations
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Everyone came to understand that Jiang Chen was one of those who could amaze the world with a single feat. He was staying in the Tian Hu Hostel conserving his strength with the boss’s help. However, if the Tian Hu Hostel meddled in the negotiations with the Thunder God Sect, they would cross the line.
It was also said that the Sacred Lord of the Thunder God Sect had gone to the hostel to talk about this. The boss of the hostel had made it clear that he would not help Jiang Chen with the negotiations.
The Thunder God Sect was happy with his answer. Ai Liang felt relieved.
The negotiations were the next day.
Jiang Chen, not bothered by the negotiations, was pushed over the edge in his room. Claiming it was safe to stay in the hostel, he took Ye Xue to his room last night. Looking at the beauty beside him, he was quite aroused. However, when learning the Jiang Chen before her was only a practicing body, Ye Xue reacted just like Tianyin. She would not even let him touch her hand, not to mention kiss her lips.
Jiang Chen felt he had found a mountain full of treasures, and all he could do was look at it. Ye Xue started to practice on her own.
“You won’t even take a rest just for one night?”
Gazing at Ye Xue’s serious face, Jiang Chen was ashamed by what he had intended to do.
He tried to concentrate. He did not know Ye Xue had opened her pretty eyes secretly. Seeing him trying so hard to concentrate, a cunning flash showed in Ye Xue’s eyes.
Ye Xue was very nervous when Jiang Chen took her back to the hostel, although she did not show it. She was even more nervous after entering the room. Fortunately, she found she could use the practicing body as an excuse, and Jiang Chen did not insist. She might have been disappointed at him if he had insisted. That’s what you liked about him, too, isn’t it, Xue’er?
Gazing at the concentrating Jiang Chen, Ye Xue started to think about many things. She was bothered by a foreboding that she could not get rid of. She kept on watching the man before him silently this way. At dawn, she gave him a light kiss on the lips. Then she left quietly, as if she was escaping. She went back to the academy.
That was why Jiang Chen was pushed over the edge. He had not had the time to enjoy that kiss of hers.
“I hope we can be a Doctrine couple advancing hand in hand forever.” She left a line of small handwriting written in dark ice on the wall.
Jiang Chen read it twice. He smiled when he understood what she meant.
.....
In a different area, Lu Ping started a new practice in the Sword Pavilion. As we said before, the transcendent sword doctrine force was only the start of a real sword doctrine.
The Tenth Sword showed the real power of sword doctrines. That was how he managed to defeat the two rivals who had turned to external force.
However, only one sword movement like this was not enough.
He was going to improve all of the sword movements he had mastered, especially The Sword Method of Ksana.
He showed his own sword doctrine to his master.
“It can make any sword spirit immortal. A sword doctrine like this is dreadful.” Standing with his back facing Jiang Chen, Wu Ming said with a smile. However, Jiang Chen could not see it. He only saw his master’s back.
“I learnt this sword doctrine from my father.” Jiang Chen said.
“Okay. Your father is Jiang Qingyu?”
Wu Ming turned around. He was not going to hide the truth from Jiang Chen anymore.That serious face looked very kind at the moment.
“Yes.” Jiang Chen was confused. He did not understand why.
“I imparted the Immortal Doctrine of Sword to your father secretly, in some relic in the Realm of Nine Heavens.”
“For real?” Shocked, Jiang Chen did not know what to say.
“It’s my dream to make the Immortal Doctrine of Sword the fifth greatest sword doctrine, surpassing the Four Great Sword Doctrines. But in others’ eyes, making any sword spirit immortal is immoral. It goes against the principle of sword doctrines.” Speaking of this, Wu Ming was very emotional.
Jiang Chen was really shocked by the power of a sword doctrine like the Immortal Doctrine of Sword, which was restricted to nothing, when he had realized sword doctrines were to endow a clear sword spirit.
He also had the worry that such a different sword doctrine could have potential risks.
What would be the greatest achievement of this sword doctrine?
Most important, what should he do after getting its sword spirit?
“I can’t tell you how to go on.” Wu Ming’s answer was surprising. “This is exactly what’s powerful about the Immortal Doctrine of Sword. Everyone will follow a different path. It’s impossible to impart your path to another person. Everyone has to find his own path.”
“This means the Immortal Doctrine of Sword has infinite possibilities.” Jiang Chen came to understand why other people could not accept the Immortal Doctrine of Sword. He was not completely resolute either. However, he found a sword doctrine like this, which needed him to resolve one puzzle after another, was exactly what he had a passion for.
Although Wu Ming could not give his apprentice any advice on the sword spirit, he would still help the latter in some way. He would guide his apprentice and lead him to scale the heights.
“Swordsmen rely a lot on the lore of wind. You are only in the third level. Next, you should improve it to the level of your lore of fire.”
“This is...”
Jiang Chen felt it was difficult. His lore of fire would achieve the eighth level soon. If he wanted his lore of wind to achieve the same level, he would have to spend a lot of time on it.
“Be mentally prepared for your practice of the next phase.” Wu Ming’s advice made him even more insecure. He felt nervous.
.....
Master Luo Cheng was his true body, so he was eating immortal elixirs as if they were just beans.The progress he had gotten was certainly pleasing.
The strongest youngster among all races? It’s time to show you how gorgeous a blessed one of the human race can be, Jiang Chen murmured to himself.
“That being said, it’s time to get myself prepared for tomorrow.” One day was very short for practitioners. It passed very quickly. The negotiation Ai Liang had been expecting for two weeks finally came. According to Jiang Chen, the location of the negotiation could be decided by the Thunder God Sect. That meant the Thunder God Sect could make all kinds of preparations.
Early in the morning, the Thunder God Sect sent someone to the hostel to inform Jiang Chen of the location. They told him to show up there before noon. Sitting in the hostel lobby, Jiang Chen and Yao Yuntong were taking their time to have breakfast. Yao Yuntong, still ignorant of what had happened, had decided to throw caution to the wind. She wanted to do the same as Ye Xue did, to trust Jiang Chen unconditionally.
“Don’t worry. After today, you can go wherever you want to go in the Nine Realms,” Jiang Chen said.
Yao Yuntong nodded. She wanted to tell him she actually would like to stay with him, but she did not have the courage to say it. She was a confident girl. However, she somehow lost all of her confidence before Jiang Chen.
When the two were just about to leave, a good-looking, middle-aged man with white sideburns showed up at the door. He glanced over the lobby. In the end, he set his eyes on Jiang Chen and Yao Yuntong.
“You two are really carefree. Let’s go.” He walked over, without showing any courtesy.
Jiang Chen and Yao Yuntong exchanged a look. Neither of them knew this man. They thought the Thunder God Sect had sent him here to urge them, but it did not look like this.
“Senior, you are?” Jiang Chen asked.
“The Lins sent me here. Isn’t this one of your plans?”
The man was confused by Jiang Chen’s reaction. Then he said proudly, “Otherwise, how would you have had the courage to negotiate with the Thunder God Sect?”
Jiang Chen was totally puzzled, especially because this man was sent by the Lins. The confusion had lasted for a good while before they finally came to understand what had happened.
