Chapter 863: Chapter 421 Sisters_2

Since I now have the ability and confidence to protect my family, I naturally will not choose to retreat or fear.

"Alright, let’s do it!"

——

Jiang Shouzhong, relying on the Zodiac Map’s sensing, tracked the dog demon’s aura and traversed all the way to the top of the cliff.

Sure enough, the familiar figure of Jiang Wan came into view.

At this moment, Jiang Wan was squatting in front of a charred puppet, her hands supporting her cheeks, lost in thought about something unknown.

"Did you track down the true form of that Taoyuan Immortal?"

Jiang Shouzhong stepped forward and asked.

Jiang Wan sighed slightly, with a hint of helplessness in her expression: "No, I didn’t expect this was also a clone."

"Did he get away?" Jiang Shouzhong frowned.

"He can’t escape."

Jiang Wan took a string of irresistibly colored candied haws from under her skirt, took a bite, and said while eating,

"At least I already know his true identity. In common terms, Ascension is equivalent to a complete transformation, so at the moment of Ascension, one’s old remains will be left in the Mortal World, and simultaneously, a brand new Immortal Body will be recreated.

For example, the Taoist Ancestor of Zhenxuan Mountain, after he ascended, his remains were worshipped by later generations. And his reshaped Immortal Body is within the Taoyuan Holy Land."

Jiang Shouzhong, after Jiang Wan’s explanation, suddenly saw the light: "I see. Then what is this person’s true identity?"

Jiang Wan pointed to the runes on the puppet: "The world is impermanent, life and death cycle... If I’m not mistaken, this person should be the first State Preceptor of Nanjin Country, the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate."

Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate?

Jiang Shouzhong frowned.

Why does it feel like I’ve heard this name somewhere before.

Wait a minute!

Jiang Shouzhong’s face suddenly changed: "No, it can’t be him!"

"Oh?"

Jiang Wan nibbled on her candied hawthorn, tilting her head as she asked, "Why are you so certain?"

Jiang Shouzhong said: "I once inadvertently went to the so-called Immortal Realm and saw a corpse. That Immortal had hanged himself, and I found a suicide note in his yard, confirming that the person who hanged himself was the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate.

He chose to end his life because he didn’t want to take the bitter soup or go along with others."

What Jiang Shouzhong was saying was that previously, when he and Miss Jingjing went to a mysterious place, they inadvertently discovered a small yard and remains.

The suicide note confirmed that the remains belonged to the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate.

At the time, they were chased by a group of strange birds, and when they escaped, he had also taken a string of agate pearls from the remains of the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate.

"What is the bitter soup?"

Jiang Wan’s eyes sparkled, and she curiously tilted her head to ask.

Jiang Shouzhong shook his head and said: "I don’t know either."

Jiang Wan unconsciously rubbed her chin, her eyes full of contemplation, mumbling:

"So, the Immortal I’m chasing isn’t the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate, but it shouldn’t be, if he’s not the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate, how could he possess his divine powers."

Jiang Wan gazed at the runes on the puppet, lightly bit her lip, pondered for a moment, then stood up and said:

"Forget it, let’s first go to the capital city of Nanjin Country to find the remains before the Reincarnation Heavenly Venerate’s Ascension, whether it’s him or not will be verified."

But speaking of which, Jiang Wan cast her gaze to Jiang Shouzhong, with an indescribable strangeness in her eyes: "You actually can go to the Taoyuan Holy Land?"

Jiang Shouzhong shrugged: "I don’t know why, but Jiang Yi also went there when she disappeared before."

Jiang Wan softly murmured: "That’s strange, could it be because my sword previously broke open the Heavenly Gate, which caused this unusual situation?"

At this point, Jiang Shouzhong glanced around the messy cliff top in surprise: "It seems that the Taoyuan Immortal’s cultivation was really strong, you almost leveled a whole mountain."

"Not fighting against that person, I was fighting with..."

Jiang Wan waved her hand and was about to continue but suddenly paused.

Her eyeballs turned, and a cunning smile appeared on her face, she then smiled brightly at Jiang Shouzhong: "Why should I tell you?"

Jiang Shouzhong rolled his eyes: "I can’t be bothered to ask."

Jiang Wan patted the man’s shoulder, speaking with implied meaning:

"Kid, let me remind you of something. In this world, there’s no one who will be good to others for no reason. If she is good to you, she surely has her own motives, her own schemes.

Be very careful with such people. To put it bluntly, only Qingchen truly has your best interests at heart, the one you should cherish most is her, understand?"

Jiang Shouzhong frowned: "What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Nothing at all."

Jiang Wan wore a relaxed smile, casually threw away the bamboo skewer in her hand, clapped her hands and laughed, "Just warning you, sometimes think a bit more, don’t bury yourself in the cosmetics pile, don’t give your heart and soul to everyone."

After speaking, Jiang Wan flew off the cliff.

Jiang Shouzhong scratched his head, muttering softly, "What kind of riddles is she trying to play, can’t she just say things directly?"

The two left the City Lord Mansion and arrived at the place where Little Jiangyi was waiting.

The Cow Demon was lying on the ground listlessly.

While Little Jiangyi was leaning bored against the Cow Demon.

The girl was idly pinching the Cow Demon’s udders with one small hand, and tugging at the Rat Demon’s long whiskers with the other, chatting idly.

Both demons wore expressions of helplessness and sorrow, looking utterly hopeless.

"Daddy!"

Seeing Jiang Shouzhong appear, Little Jiangyi’s eyes brightened, and she flew into the man’s arms.

The Rat Demon and Cow Demon instantly breathed a sigh of relief, as this little ancestor was really hard to please.

The Rat Demon seized the opportunity, quickly returned to its original form, and "whoosh" hid in the Zodiac Map.

Jiang Shouzhong touched Little Jiangyi’s slightly cool cheek and said, "Should’ve let you wait in the inn."

"It’s alright, in the future Little Yi will work hard to cultivate, not be a burden, and stay by Daddy’s side."

Little Jiangyi’s eyes sparkled.

Jiang Wan curiously leaned in front of the Cow Demon, pinched its udders, and curiously asked, "Can this old cow produce milk?"

Jiang Shouzhong responded inadvertently, "Rest assured, it can produce more than you."

"What did you say?"

Jiang Wan turned her head, smiling at him.

"Uh, I meant when Qingchen was injured before, she drank it, it has healing effects."

Jiang Shouzhong quickly said.

Fortunately, Jiang Wan didn’t mind Jiang Shouzhong’s teasing words, she took out a string of candied fruits, bit one, and laughed:

"When Qingchen was little, I took her to wander around the Li Family; Qingchen saw the girl from the Li Family nestling in her mother’s arms drinking milk, and made a fuss wanting milk too.

I didn’t have any, so Mrs. Li helped feed her for a few days, and then I found her a nursemaid. But that girl didn’t like it, should’ve bought more cows earlier."

Jiang Wan looked at Jiang Yi again, sighed: "Actually, Little Yi and I never drank either."

Jiang Shouzhong’s face was full of dark lines.

Elder sister, how did the conversation inexplicably turn to drinking milk?

He coughed and said, "If you want to drink, I can squeeze a bucket for you now."

The Cow Demon’s body trembled and retreated two steps.

After all, the scene of Jiang Shouzhong nearly exhausting it to save Ran Qingchen was still fresh in its memory.

Jiang Wan’s lips curved up as she lightly flipped onto the cow’s back, raised her chin and said:

"Let’s go, let’s find an inn first to eat something, fill our stomachs, and then set off for Nanjin Country’s Capital City. Oh, yes, let’s visit the Moon in Water Bridge too."

She reached out to Little Jiangyi: "Come on, Little Yi."

"I don’t want to be with you."

Little Jiangyi turned her head, snorted coldly, and held tightly onto Jiang Shouzhong’s arm.

"This girl hasn’t changed a bit since she was young."

Jiang Wan patted the cow’s back and said, "Then this cow will belong to me, you can’t ride it anymore."

"Why! This is my daddy’s!"

Little Jiangyi was furious at the other’s domineering tone, ran to try to pull Jiang Wan down, but was instead grabbed by the wrist and effortlessly pulled onto the cow’s back.

Little Jiangyi struggled in vain, saw Jiang Shouzhong not helping, and had to sullenly give up.

Jiang Wan hugged the girl’s slender waist, gently pressed her cheek against her, gently rubbing the other’s soft cheek, and softly said:

"They say sisters in this life were enemies in the past life, I am an unqualified older sister, next life you can be the sister, bully me as you please."

Little Jiangyi was stunned for a moment, initially wanting to mock but felt a chill on her neck.

She pursed her pink lips, took out a handkerchief from her arms and stuffed it into the other’s hand.
