Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 491 Returning Home from the Sea of ​​Mysteries
As soon as the Weaver Girl finished speaking...

Jiang Jian noticed it.

An extremely dangerous aura emanated from all directions.

Jiang Mian's expression hardened, and he took out the decree from the realm lord: "I am the governor of Xisha Road, not the envoy of the spirit-suppressing envoy."

"I am here now only on the orders of the Lord of the Desolate Realm to bring Xu Kuo of the Spirit Suppression Guard back."

hum!
A very faint humming sound suddenly rang out.

On the screen that carries the imperial decree.

It displays a complex star array pattern.

The array's light patterns lit up one after another.

This is a temporary teleportation star array!
Upon seeing this item.

The Demoness of Weaving Age's expression softened somewhat: "Since it is Lord of the Desolate Realm who has taken action, I will not make things difficult for you."

"I can tell you the truth about Qingling Creek."

“Master of West Pond Pavilion, there is a supernatural power that requires the assistance of the Clear Spirit Stream in its cultivation.”

"Therefore, he bribed the officials of Xing'an Prefecture, took advantage of the Witch Abyss as a route, and swallowed up the Qingling Creek of Xisha Road."

"To put it mildly, this is a case of treason by a government official."

"On a larger scale, it is a conflict between two star lord-level forces: the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion and the Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom."

The girl in the floral dress spread her hands, "The West Pool Pavilion Master is a true disciple of the Sword Pavilion, and like the Jade Pool Demon Lord, he is also at the Divine Platform Realm."

"He personally came to the Witch's Abyss and asked to pass through to the Demon Kingdom."

"Lord Jade Pool Demon Lord cannot refuse outright."

She looked at Jiang Jian and asked, "Are you satisfied with this explanation?"

The Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion is the third star lord.

Together with the Kingdom of No Elephant and the Kingdom of White Frost.

They had already formed an alliance to attack and defend each other.

The meaning behind the words of the Weaver Girl was quite clear.

The Witch's Abyss has only one Demon Lord at the Divine Platform Realm.

Faced with the pressure from Jian Ge, they were completely unable to resist.

but.

Despite facing the Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom, the Demoness Yuan showed no fear.

because.

The Witch Abyss knows very well.

The Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom will not easily send troops out to other countries.

Its internal officials are not a monolithic group.

Making any decision requires going through many processes.

This is also one of the biggest differences between a sect and a kingdom.

The Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion is a Star Lord-level sect.

The master-disciple lineage and factionalism serve as the threads connecting them.

They are closely connected.

therefore.

The disciples of the Sword Pavilion acted arrogantly and recklessly.

However, due to the protection of their master or the cover-up by their faction.

Their misdeeds are rarely punished.

in contrast.

As a star-lord level nation, the Demon Kingdom faces far too many constraints.

Due to internal structural issues.

The country's personnel structure is relatively loose.

They are completely incapable of being like the disciples of a sect.

They are free to come and go as they please.

"As for this person."

The girl in the floral dress stretched out her gauze sleeve and pointed at Xu Kuo in the hands of the Zhenling Guard.

"He accepted a promise from the master of Xichi Pavilion to help the officials of Xing'an Prefecture cover up their activities."

"Strictly speaking, it also falls under the category of the Qinglingxi case."

"Not long ago, I did receive orders to spare Xu Kuo's life and release him into the Jian Ge region."

She blinked. "But..."

"After fighting you, I changed my mind."

"Xu Kuo, the defector from Zhenling Guard, is yours for free."

The words fell.

Silence fell once again on the jade table.

The Zhenling Guards and the Governor's personal guards all pricked up their ears and listened attentively, afraid of missing a single word.

Jiang Jian frowned slightly, deep in thought.

The case of Qinglingxi has a very clear background and the truth has been revealed.

The defection of Xu Kuo, a member of the Zhenling Guard, is also part of this case.

Where is the prefectural magistrate of Xing'an Prefecture now?

Jiang Jian asked.

The Weaving Witch said, "I went to the Sword Pavilion territory a long time ago."

"However, I have his detailed location information here."

Her tone was incredibly seductive.

"Not only that, I also know clues about Qingling Creek!"

She stared at Jiang Jian, her pupils almost turning into seven colors.

"And what you care about most is the truth behind the dismemberment case of Zhang Xuan, the former governor of Xisha Circuit!"

"I know everything!"

aside.

One of the Zhenling Guards stood up and said, "Everyone knows that the entire Qingling Creek was swallowed up by the West Pond Pavilion Master long ago!"

"You rude fool."

The Weaver Girl's expression turned cold, and she fiercely swung her gauze sleeve!
boom!
Zhenlingwei coughed up blood and flew backward like a kite with a broken string!

The hard rocks were smashed and collapsed.

The Zhenling Guard lay on the ground, barely breathing!

"Su, for your sake, spare his life."

The Weaving Witch turned around and looked at Jiang Jian again, "Qingling Creek is almost equivalent to a complete spiritual vein."

"Even if the Pavilion Master of West Pond is at the Divine Platform Realm, he cannot digest it directly."

"He used his innate supernatural power to swallow Qinglingxi."

“Back at the West Pond Pavilion, I took it out.”

"Place it in a hidden place and use it slowly."

"If you calculate it carefully..."

"So far, he hasn't even used up one-tenth of Qinglingxi's resources."

"Moreover, the Pavilion Master of West Pond was ordered to go to the Sword Realm the day before yesterday."

"This is your golden opportunity."

The Weaving Witch stood up and walked to Jiang Jian.

She stroked her colorful floral dress, looking beautiful and charming.

"As long as you agree to one condition."

"I will provide you with all of this information."

The girl's voice was soft and gentle, her breath sweet as orchids.

aside.

The Zhenling Guards and their personal guards exchanged glances at this scene, their expressions all strange.

On the surface, things remained calm around Li Changhe.

He was also secretly marveling at the Governor's good fortune with women.

The Weaver Girl was extremely beautiful.

Now, with her captivating and alluring appearance, it's hard for a normal person to resist.

"Take Xu Kuo and return to Xisha Road first."

Jiang met him expressionlessly and gave instructions to Li Changhe.

Li Changhe stood up and immediately replied, "Yes, Your Excellency."

soon.

Li Changhe, accompanied by his personal guards, helped the injured Zhenling Guard and the tightly bound Xu Kuo, and stepped back onto the Rainbow Bridge.

"The case file of Qinglingxi shall be sealed for the time being."

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Jian spoke again, "Tell Gao Qi that there may be a result in the Zhang Xuan dismemberment case. Just tell him to wait."

Li Changhe and the others responded respectfully.

He then bid farewell to Jiang Jian and turned to walk towards the demon kingdom barrier at the end of the rainbow bridge and above the abyss.

In front of the palace.

Jade Case.

Only Jiang Jian and the Weaver Girl remained.

"Your condition should be that I fight you, right?"

Jiang Jian looked at the girl in the floral dress and spoke softly.

opposite.

The Weaving Age Witch was taken aback.

Subsequently.

She looked Jiang Jian up and down, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow: "When we first met in Xing'an Prefecture, I felt that you were different from ordinary people. Now it seems that you are indeed extraordinary."

While talking.

The Witch of Weaving Age had regained her composure.

"You're right."

"Not long ago, when I fought with you."

"I actually have a sign that I can see the altar!"

She stood up.

Deep within his eyes lay an intense and overwhelming longing!
"A century of arduous cultivation."

"The Divine Platform Realm is still so far out of reach."

"It can be done when I fight you."

"For the first time, I glimpsed the edge of the Divine Platform Realm within my own soul!"

"But it's far from enough!"

"I need you to give it your all as my sparring partner!"

"Only in battles like this can I find my true self and the direction of the Divine Platform Realm."

The Weaving Witch walked up to Jiang Jian and raised her slender white fingers from within her gauze sleeves.

"The only reward I can give you is some information."

"Trust me, this information will definitely not disappoint you."

"besides."

"The Zhang Xuan dismemberment case is actually related to you."

Her hand hovered in mid-air, awaiting Jiang Jian's reply.

Jiang Jian stared at her and asked, "Jade Pool Demon Lord, are you aware of your actions?"

The Weaving Witch chuckled lightly, her expression somewhat disdainful: "The Demon Lord also went to the Sword Realm, and she took the other three witches with her, leaving only me here to guard this place."

"but."

"for me."

"The Divine Platform Realm is the only thing that matters."

The Weaver Girl raised her hand slightly.

"And another thing." "The Jade Pool Demon Lord has decided to bring the Demoness Abyss to join the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion and become an enemy of the Demon Kingdom."

If you reject me.

"The truth behind Zhang Xuan's dismemberment case will never be known to anyone again."

This moment.

Sky Island, silent and still.

Even the wind stopped.

Obviously.

The Weaving Age Witch has found an opportunity to reach the Divine Platform Realm.

For her.

This is more important than anything else.

For any living being.

The sight of the altar is an irresistible temptation.

“You just said that.”

"The Zhang Xuan dismemberment case is related to me."

Jiang Jiandao.

The Weaving Age Witch replied, "Yes."

Be confirmed.

Jiang Jian frowned.

He really didn't expect it.

The murder of the former governor was somehow connected to him.

The appearance of the Weaver Girl didn't seem like she was lying.

"I can agree to be your combat sparring partner."

After a moment's thought, Jiang Jian spoke in a deep voice, "But before that, I need you to tell me the truth."

The Weaver Girl sighed, "How greedy."

Jiang Jian didn't speak, but instead reached out and gently shook hands with her.

The deal is done.

The girl in the floral dress withdrew her finger, pulled up a file, and started the transfer.

"See for yourself."

A beep sounds.

Transmission complete.

Jiang Jian opened his identity document and looked at the information on the screen.

A few minutes later.

Jiang Jian raised her head.

For the first time, his expression turned extremely gloomy.

Former Governor-General of Xisha Circuit, Zhang Xuan.

His soul was indeed crushed by the Jade Pool Demon Lord!

but.

The real culprit behind the scenes is not the Heavenly Law Sword Pavilion.

It came from the royal court of the Demon Kingdom!

even.

It comes from the seventh level of the King's Tower, inside the Grand Tutor's Mansion!

This is a case of hiring a hitman to commit murder!

The document mentions this.

The cause of this incident.

But we need to start with another matter.

one year later.

Saturn's hundred realms, the celestial positions of the planetary rulers change.

The existing eight star lords are likely to undergo a reshuffle.

Many star lord-level forces have long been eager to make their move.

This is a planet-wide event!

at the same time.

Each star lord-level power will receive a participation quota, which they will allocate themselves.

The same applies to the Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom.

Every government office in the imperial court has a quota of positions for the emperor.

They represent the government office they belong to and their own power.

Participate in the struggle for the position of Star Lord!

The Grand Tutor's Mansion was a top-level government office of the imperial court.

There are only two spots available for the Heavenly Position.

Zhang Xuan was a loyal follower of the Grand Tutor's mansion.

He had always stayed in the Governor's Mansion, practicing asceticism behind closed doors and refusing to attend to the affairs of the Governor's Mansion.

The sole purpose is to secure a spot in the Heavenly Realm!
just.

Inside the Grand Tutor's mansion, some people realized that Zhang Xuan posed a threat to them.

therefore.

They spent a great deal of money to bribe the Jade Pool Demon Lord of the Divine Platform Realm.

In the desolate wilderness, Zhang Xuan was killed!
Its soul was crushed, and its body was separated and discarded!

A promising and loyal voter died a violent death.

Placed on the entire planet Saturn.

This was merely a tiny, imperceptible ripple amidst the tumultuous waves stirred up by the struggle for the position of the Star Lord.

but.

For the Grand Tutor's Mansion, however, it was a real loss—the loss of a peerless genius.

even.

Even the Grand Tutor of the Demon Kingdom, the True Lord of the Mirror.

Everyone is paying close attention to this matter.

The reason why this True Lord sent Jiang Jian to take up a post in Xisha Dao was because of this.

The most important reason is to thoroughly investigate the Zhang Xuan dismemberment case!
Other than that.

What made Jiang's heart skip a beat upon seeing this was...

The data clearly shows.

His own displayed level 7 physical constitution, and his outstanding performance during the assessment.

It has already come into the view of others.

The real culprit hiding in the Grand Tutor's mansion even intended to bribe the Jade Pool Demon Lord to use the same methods to kill him in Xisha Road!

just.

The Jade Pool Demon Lord was recruited by the Sword Pavilion.

He took three witches and went to the Sword Realm.

This is in response to Jiang Jian's intention to hire someone to kill him.

It is still in the stage of awaiting confirmation and has not yet truly taken shape.

Even so.

Deep within Jiang Jian's mind, an extremely cold killing intent still surged forth!
"Who is this person?"

Jiang Jian put down the documents and looked up at the Weaver Girl.

His gaze was icy and chilling.

Even the Weaving Witch was startled and subconsciously avoided Jiang Jian's gaze.

"I will give you the complete information after the sparring session."

She turned her head and said softly.

Somehow.

The Weaving Witch actually felt a great sense of apprehension towards the white-robed youth before her.

It seemed like a second had passed.

It seemed like a long time had passed.

Jiang Jian finally spoke: "Let's begin."

The Weaver Girl nodded cautiously: "Okay."

Everyone has things they want.

even.

Most people are willing to give up everything for these things.

at this time.

What the Weaver Girl desires is the opportunity to see the altar!
The Divine Platform Realm represents far too many meanings.

Any star lord power would consider winning over those at the Divine Platform Realm as one of its most important tasks.

The Jade Pool Demon Lord dared to offend the Demon Kingdom.

That's because she is a genuine Divine Platform Realm expert.

not to mention.

As far as the Xuan Shou Demon Kingdom is concerned...

The Demon Kingdom encompasses ten realms, a vast territory.

A minor governor-general was murdered.

In the demon kingdom's court, it couldn't cause any ripples at all.

Only major events that shake the fate of the demon kingdom will attract the attention of the imperial court.

Zhang Xuan, if he were not a direct descendant of the Grand Tutor's family, would not have been a member of the electorate

The Mirror Master True Lord personally ordered the supervision.

This case caused a great stir in Xisha Road.

It had long been completely forgotten by the General Manager of Internal Affairs at the Ninth Level of the King's Tower, and thrown into a corner that no one cared about.

after all.

Not every case can be successfully solved.

The case of Zhang Xuan's dismemberment, the former governor of Xisha Road.

This is why it received attention from government agencies such as the General Consulate General of the Interior and the Zhenling Division.

It was all because of a single sentence from the True Lord.

"correct."

"Your subordinates seem to have misunderstood something."

The Weaver Girl suddenly spoke, her expression mocking.

While talking.

The entire sky island.

It twisted violently with an extremely exaggerated amplitude!

Almost in the blink of an eye.

It turned into a gladiatorial arena.

The site was enormous, encompassing almost half the sky.

The Weaving Witch and Jiang Jian stood on either side, gazing at each other from afar.

Do you have multiple personality disorder?

Jiang Jian stretched out his palm, and a frost-white longsword materialized. Looking at the girl whose expression changed so naturally, he spoke in a cold voice.

The Weaving Age Witch transformed herself, creating hundreds of clones that simultaneously spoke in different tones: "You guessed right."
