The End of the Immortal Path

Chapter 311 Ji Meng: He said I am his wife?

Jiang Man appeared at the small hillside inside the gate.

The area corresponding to the outer gate.

Normally, you'll be teleported here after a mission ends.

Some of them will return to the same place where they were teleported.

Xie Zhixu and the others hesitated to speak to Jiang Man.

Jiang Man knew what they wanted to ask, but she didn't say anything.

Finally, Xia Jian spoke up, asking, "What kind of token does Junior Brother have?"

Jiang Man smiled mysteriously: "Perhaps only slightly better than you guys."

Then he said goodbye and left.

Sometimes, ambiguous answers are more like the pride of heaven.

The three remained silent for a moment, feeling extremely uncomfortable.

It seems that from the moment they inquired about the other party's cultivation level, they knew nothing about Jiang Man.

It is impossible to distinguish between the real and the fake.

It always makes people feel powerless.

Finally, they decided to go back and ask around to see what merit the other party had actually made.

This way you can make a rough guess.

Jiang Man didn't care about this.

He wasn't worried about his achievements being known, since it wasn't about exposing his identity.

However, as he reached the edge of the square, a gust of wind blew by, and the clear sound of silver bells rang out.

Directly in front.

He strode forward and, sure enough, saw a young woman sitting on a rock, swinging her legs.

What are they waiting for?

Jiang Man approached the other person and said, "Miss Ji Meng, were you waiting for me?"

Upon hearing this, Ji Meng raised her eyebrows slightly, looked at Jiang Man, and smiled, "Young Master Jiang, are you so certain?"

"Shall I treat Miss Ji Meng to some sesame seed cakes?" Jiang Man asked immediately.

Ji Meng landed on her feet, smiling radiantly, and said, "Okay."

Afterwards, Jiang Man rode his sword and led Ji Meng towards the outer gate.

In mid-air, Ji Meng asked curiously, "Do I have to go buy it this time?"

Jiang Man nodded: "Yes, we should. Right now, Peak Master Bai is still targeting me, but the targeting from the outer sect is about to dissipate. If I go now, they'll probably have an even harder time doing business."

In addition, he was also afraid that these people would be arrested again.

The million-yuan spirit source was still hoping that Song Qing would take it over.

Jiang Man then asked when the annual performance review would be conducted.

He needs to see how many points he has.

"The exam is over," Ji Meng replied with a smile.

Jiang Man was taken aback: "Isn't it only August?"

"Yes, the exam was in July, but Young Master Jiang still ranked twelfth," Ji Meng replied with a smile.

Twelfth, isn't that just the primordial spirit at the bottom?
He's currently in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm. If he were to participate in the assessment, Qingdai would likely be at the bottom.

"Can I retake the exam?" Jiang Man asked.

Ji Meng shook her head: "It probably won't work, the rankings have already been released."

Jiang Man felt helpless, but fortunately, his ranking hadn't dropped, which was something to be happy about.

Soon, Jiang Man and Ji Meng arrived at the outer gate.

"The person who ambushed me and Xiaoqing was at the outer gate," Ji Meng said, bending down and patting her slightly wrinkled fairy dress after landing.

"Isn't that very dangerous?" Jiang Man asked.

“It’s not dangerous. Xiaoqing went to find him and fought with him.” Ji Meng came to Jiang Man’s side and said as she walked.

"Who won?" Jiang Man asked immediately.

They've already fought, but we don't know the specifics or if anyone was injured.

"They were discovered by the sect after only a short time, and the two of them were almost captured," Ji Meng said with a smile. "When Xiao Qing went there the second time, she found that the people who were on guard had changed from the early stage of the Void Returning Realm to the peak of the Void Returning Realm."

"I didn't dare to fight anymore."

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised.

Unexpectedly, the reason these people didn't make a move was because of the sect's rules.

The inner sect members can take action, but if the outer sect members make such a big fuss, they will be summoned to the Enforcement Hall.

Neither side nor the other will have a good ending if they become enemies with a sect.

We asked you to come out, but your sect is causing trouble?

There is a certain probability that they will be deported.

The immortals must deal with this severely.

However, this also made it more difficult for Jiang Man to take action.

Fortunately, there's no rush.

His cultivation level is still too weak; he needs to wait for a better opportunity.

The two then began walking towards Yunxia Peak.

The sesame seed cake shop is located there.

Soon, they saw the deserted sesame seed cake shop.

Jiang Man noticed the difference in the pancake shop at a glance: "Why are you selling soy milk now?"

"Isn't that unreasonable?" Ji Meng asked.

"Hmm, that means there's business going on. I wonder who's got the guts to do this," Jiang Man said.

But I never paid any attention to it.

There are quite a few people with connections in the outer sect, so there are always some who aren't worried about being targeted.

Of course, as time goes by, many people will forget about this.

New disciples join the school year after year, completely unaware of the situation.

With the massive influx of new students, this targeting will gradually disappear.

Time will bring in new people and let the old ones leave.

Even a legend like him wouldn't last long in the outer sect.

"I'll go ask if Young Master Jiang wants to come over?" Ji Meng asked.

Jiang Man shook his head.

He stopped causing trouble.

Since they are moving in a positive direction, we should not let them fall into difficulties again.

Unless Bai Fengzhu's targeting disappears.

Or perhaps he can suppress this targeting.

He doesn't have that kind of strength right now, and he also has to deal with the Bai family patriarch.

It's also easier to stay focused.

At this moment, Ji Meng arrived at the shop entrance and asked softly, "Is anyone here?"

"They're here." Song Qing came out immediately.

Upon seeing Ji Meng, he froze, a profound fear gripping his heart.

But he forced himself to suppress it and said in a trembling voice, "Young...Young Master."

"What? I'm helping out in the kitchen, I can't go out," Little Fatty's voice came from inside.

"Young Master, come out here." Song Qing immediately spoke up.

Little Fatty then cautiously peeked out from inside.

I was about to say a few words to Song Qing, but then I saw Ji Meng standing outside.

In an instant, his mind felt like it had been bombarded.

I almost knelt down.

"I want to buy sesame seed cakes," Ji Meng said.

Upon hearing this, Little Fatty immediately nodded: "Please wait a moment, there are some freshly baked ones inside."

Then he stumbled and ran inside.

"Is he afraid of me?" Ji Meng looked at Song Qing.

"No, will the guests still be charged to our boss's account this time?" Song Qing asked with a forced smile.

"Yes, did you talk to him?" Ji Meng asked.

“I told you, I told you,” Song Qing said immediately.

"He has no objections?" Ji Meng asked.

"No." Song Qing shook his head.

At this moment, Little Fatty took out a new sesame seed cake.

"Did he say anything else?" Ji Meng asked.

Song Qing hesitated.

Upon hearing this, Ji Meng's aura changed.

Song Qing sensed the coldness and immediately said, "Someone asked the boss if he was going to take a concubine."

Cold sweat broke out on the chubby boy's forehead.

If Song Qing dared to say it was him, he was determined to fight Song Qing to the death.

"Why is it called taking a concubine?" Ji Meng asked curiously.

“Because we all know that the boss has a Daoist partner,” Song Qing said.

"So what was his answer?"

"Our boss also asked why we wanted to take a concubine, and we naturally said it was because of our Daoist partner."

Upon hearing this, Ji Meng asked curiously, "What did he say next?"

“He said,” Song Qing said softly, head down, “our boss said, why can’t it be the wife I’ve mentioned?”

Upon hearing this, Ji Meng remained silent for a moment, then asked, "Why are you suddenly selling soy milk?"

Song Qing felt confused; the topic had changed too quickly.

But the first answer was always, "Because we have guests who want to eat."

"By the way, who asked that question about the concubine?" Ji Meng suddenly asked. Upon hearing this, Song Qing dared not speak.

Little Fatty was trembling all over.

Ji Meng, holding the sesame seed cake, said, "Who said that? Who's treating us to this?"

“No problem,” Little Fatty replied immediately.

With that, Ji Meng turned and left.

Her steps were light and quick, as if she had thought of something happy.

Once everyone was out of sight, Little Fatty plopped down on the ground: "That scared me to death! Is this Brother Jiang's Daoist partner? Such a powerful aura! I should have married someone less talented than me."

"If someone is naturally gifted, I wouldn't be able to handle it."

"But Brother Jiang should be nearby too."

Song Qing's legs were trembling: "Is Young Master Jiang nearby?"

"That's why we're treating them to a meal," Little Fatty said.

Song Qing nodded.

Makes sense.

So the two of them shared one sesame seed cake? That's incredibly frugal.

Little Fatty felt the same way; if he had known this would happen, he would have given an extra dollar.

-

When Ji Meng found Jiang Man, she was stunned for a moment.

She discovered that Jiang Man, who had been waiting for her, had already begun cultivating.

The practice is the Nine Stars Visualization Method.

Ji Meng didn't disturb him, but instead sat down on a rock to the side and watched Jiang Man cultivate.

They ate sesame seed cakes while waiting.

Fortunately, Jiang Man stopped after finishing his cultivation and did not continue.

"How long have you been waiting, Miss Ji Meng?" Jiang Man asked immediately.

"I just sat down." Ji Meng handed half of the sesame seed cake to Jiang Man and said, "It was hot just now, but it's a bit cold now."

Jiang Man took it, took a bite, and commented, "Some people say that the taste of food itself is limited, but when paired with a wonderful story or an amazing person, the taste will be infinitely enhanced."

"That's how the flavor of this sesame seed cake was enhanced."

Ji Meng looked at Jiang Man and tentatively asked, "Is there a long-term 15% discount on pills and materials?"

Jiang Man said with delight, "Miss Ji Meng is such a kind person."

Ji Meng smiled and said, "Young Master Jiang's weaknesses are so obvious that he is easily exploited."

Jiang Man ate his sesame seed cake without answering.

Miss Ji Meng doesn't have enough understanding of the peerless genius.

After that, they wandered around.

In the evening, Ji Meng asked Jiang Man if there was anything else he wanted to do after the mission was over.

"Continue your training and improve your combat skills," Jiang Man said.

His actual combat skills are still lacking; he always manages to overwhelm opponents across boundaries or different fighting styles.

It's not easy to win against someone of equal skill.

Therefore, it is necessary to improve this ability.

It was also to deal with the Bai family patriarch.

The longer it drags on, the more dangerous it becomes, because the other party's time outside is limited.

Things might go wrong later.

If someone were to become so ruthless as to attack themselves, that would be a real problem.

“It seems that Young Master Ji will come to teach the class the following year,” Ji Meng said.

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised: "Again?"

It's good that Ji Hao is coming.

He taught so well, and he even wrote up the techniques.

He's practically a miniature version of a peerless genius who could traverse the heavens and earth.

As darkness fell, Ji Meng suddenly asked, "Young Master Jiang, have you found an evil god with excellent formations?"

Jiang Man shook his head: "I asked a few, but they all said that many evil god formations are very good."

Immediately, Jiang Man asked, "Are there any other characteristics?"

“It should be considered quite old,” Ji Meng said.

"I'll ask again soon, and let Miss Ji Meng know if I find out," Jiang Man said, then asked, "So, you can take Miss Ji Meng's pulse then?"

"Does Young Master Jiang really know medicine?" Ji Meng asked curiously.

"Yes, I will," Jiang Man said confidently.

If it doesn't work, go back and learn; it'll be quick.

After that, Jiang Man escorted Ji Meng to the door.

Waving goodbye.

Ji Meng watched Jiang Man leave, then turned and entered the courtyard.

As soon as she stepped through the door, she saw Qingdai come out to greet her.

"Miss, was it the young master who brought you back?" Qingdai asked immediately.

Ji Meng looked at Qing Dai and said, "Peeking?"

Qingdai immediately shook her head: "The young master flew so slowly with you, it was hard not to see him. Didn't you notice, Miss? When you came back, the young master's flying speed on his sword was two or three times slower than others."

Ji Meng did not answer, but walked inside on her own.

"Did you meet the young master by chance, Miss?" Qingdai asked.

Ji Meng continued walking on by herself.

“Miss, now that the young master is back, should we go and get rid of that Bai family man? What if he has designs on the young master? Wouldn’t that be very dangerous? Besides, he’ll come to kill us sooner or later,” Qingdai said.

Ji Meng stopped and nodded slightly: "Find a way to lure him out."

Then kill him.

-

Jiang Man's residence.

"Old Huang, look, this is a letter that Miss Ji Meng wrote to me."

As Jiang Man spoke, he took out the letter and showed it to the old ox.

The old ox kept its head down, grazing on the grass, completely oblivious to the world around it.

Jiang Manze said, "Old Huang, I'll read it to you."

The old ox raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Jiang Man, and said, "You should think about how much time you have. If you don't reach the ninth level of the primordial spirit realm in two hundred days, your wife will be a widow for you."

Jiang Man agreed; they needed to continue improving.

Otherwise it would be quite dangerous.

At this moment, the tengu walked over and said, "Master."

"What's wrong?" Jiang Man asked.

The tengu asked pitifully, "When can we go back to the prison?"

Jiang Man asked curiously, "What's wrong? Don't you like freedom?"

The tengu said it didn't want freedom anymore and wanted to go back to the prison.

Jiang Man shook his head. Tiangou was born into a life of luxury and never realized how good his living environment was.

When you're full, you'll think about freedom; when you're not full, you don't have time to think about freedom. All your time is spent looking for food.

However, going back is probably not an option.

After putting the envelope away, Jiang Man told the old ox about his experience.

I want Lao Huang to help me find a solution.

Let's see if it's really someone from the Bai family who wants to kill him.

As for the tengu, let it eat grass first, and we'll definitely bring it into the Enforcement Hall prison when we have the chance.

Things have been tense lately, so I can't get in.

The old ox was silent for a moment before saying, "There are always people who are not satisfied with the current hand and want to reshuffle it."

Jiang Man was somewhat surprised: "Not satisfied? An evil god?"

"It's not just evil gods, but also people within the realm of immortals," the old ox said calmly. "Some are critically injured and on the verge of death, unable to retain their bodies, and want to take advantage of the chaos to become evil gods and rebuild their glory."

"Some people have made no further progress, but now, with the emergence of the Immortal Path Coordinates, they have new ideas."

"I hope to roll the Sage's Dice."

"And you became the point of all testing."

"You need to spread the news of the Immortal Path coordinates as soon as possible, so that everyone will turn their attention to Ji Hao."

"Otherwise, you'll be in even more danger."

Jiang Man was silent for a moment and then said, "I feel that because I got married and the Immortal Path Coordinates appeared, I have fallen into an endless crisis."

"At first I thought my wife would kill me, but I didn't expect she would kill me to provoke her."

After a pause, Jiang Man asked curiously, "If I were killed, would my wife be enraged?"

"I don't know if it will work out of my hands, but I'll run ahead first, so you don't need to worry about me," the old ox said.
