Divine Sword Manor.
On the solitary peak.
Jiang Ning quickly perfected two more seasonal conceptions.
[Skill]: Spring Classic (Incomplete) (Master 121/2000) (Cannot be upgraded)
Minor Heat (Perfection 3/1000)
Major Heat (Perfection 5/1000)
"I've gathered all six seasonal fragments." Jiang Ning muttered in his heart as he looked at his panel.
He then closed the panel, looking towards the Divine Sword Manor.
Within the manor, figures were still busy.
He remained on the solitary peak to ensure nothing went wrong at the Divine Sword Manor.
Otherwise, Xie Xiaojiu and Su Zhi alone could not suppress any upheaval at the Divine Sword Manor.
The reason Divine Sword Manor remained so compliant was partly due to the fear instilled by last night's battle.
The second reason was the submission of Shangguan Feilong and Shangguan Jincheng.
As the ancestor and Family Head of the Shangguan family, their attitude represented the family's stance.
In order to ensure the family's continuation, they made the wisest decision.
And all this was because of him.
If he wasn't present, the people in the manor would not be so obedient.
Standing on the solitary peak, he glanced down briefly.
Jiang Ning then picked up the martial arts skill Xie Xiaojiu had brought just now.
[Literacy and Judgement Experience +1]
[Literacy and Judgement Experience +1]
[Literacy and Judgement Experience +1]
[...]
As he read through the martial arts skills, the Literacy and Judgement Experience surged with the passage of time.
The martial arts skills brought by Xie Xiaojiu were the accumulated wealth of Divine Sword Manor over many years, with the lowest grade being middle grade martial arts.
In no time.
The sun set in the west, painting the sky crimson.
The slanted rays of the setting sun could no longer cover the Divine Sword Manor, only able to illuminate Jiang Ning's solitary peak.
As time moved on.
The sunset glow ascended along the cliff of the solitary peak, soon only brushing over his head, and the sky darkened.
"Sir, here are the treasured pills from the manor!" Xie Xiaojiu appeared again in front of Jiang Ning, holding a wooden box.
"Put it down!" Jiang Ning said.
All day today, Xie Xiaojiu had been traveling back and forth between the solitary peak and the Divine Sword Manor, delivering numerous Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, along with precious pills.
Most of them had been pocketed by Jiang Ning, yet to be fully digested.
"Yes, Sir!" Upon hearing Jiang Ning's instructions, Xie Xiaojiu placed the wooden box aside.
He then asked, "Sir, would you like dinner later?"
Jiang Ning shook his head: "It's not necessary!"
"Understood!" Xie Xiaojiu nodded.
Watching Xie Xiaojiu take a shortcut down the mountain, sliding down the smooth cliff quickly, Jiang Ning couldn't help but smile.
He then raised his hand, and the wooden box just placed by Xie Xiaojiu flew into his grasp.
Opening the lid of the wooden box revealed neatly arranged jade bottles of premium pills.
Dragon and Tiger Bone Strengthening Pill... Great Strength Vajra Pill... Essence Nourishing Spirit Pill... Great Returning Pill...
The labels on the jade bottles indicated the extraordinary nature of these pills.
Jiang Ning glanced at them, then poured the pills out, throwing them into his mouth.
Soon, all the jade bottles of pills were emptied by him.
He then picked up the cultivation book and continued to peruse.
...
Night fell quickly.
Within the manor, scattered lights rose like stars, and the bright moon rose from the west.
"Finally finished reading!" Jiang Ning closed the book in his hand, exhaling a sigh of relief.
[Skill]: Literacy and Judgement (Second Limit Breaking 33273/40000) (Traits: unforgettable, extraordinary five senses, divine thought agility...)
Just over six thousand experience points away!
Looking at his panel, a thought flashed through Jiang Ning's mind.
Then, he glanced again at the busily occupied manor below.
After watching for a while, seeing nothing unusual, he withdrew his gaze.
He raised his head once more to gaze at the full moon above.
The bright moon hung high, resembling a jade plate.
The fifteenth of August, according to the agreement I left with Lin Qingyi, tonight is the first scheduled meeting. I wonder if she received the message I sent her.
A thought flashed through Jiang Ning's mind.
He then secretly transmitted a message to Xie Xiaojiu with an instruction.
Then, with a single swift move, he vanished from the solitary peak under the moonlight.
On the other side.
Xie Xiaojiu looked at the sword that pierced through the air and landed before her, pursing her lips before gripping it tightly.
"Sir, don't worry! I won't let anything happen here!" She muttered in her heart.
She then re-sheathed the Spirit Sword Sword Nine onto her back and set off to find Su Zhi.
Among those left by the Inspection Office at Divine Sword Manor, Su Zhi was the foremost in both status and strength.
In the current Divine Sword Manor, Su Zhi was among the top experts.
With no Grandmaster, Fourth Grade rules.
Presently within Divine Sword Manor, no Grandmaster exists, and Fourth Grade is the highest martial arts realm.
Su Zhi stands out among the Fourth Grade.
In Dongling County, few can surpass her.
...
Water Moon Sword Palace.
In just an hour, Jiang Ning once again arrived at the Lake Heart Island where the Water Moon Sword Palace was located.
"This travel method really consumes a lot!" He muttered internally, sensing his state.
Then, his figure moved, disappearing instantly.
When he reappeared, it was before the Divine Woman Statue.
At this moment, the white moonlight cascaded from the dome of the palace, enveloping the Divine Woman Sculpture, the Divine Radiance covering it, making the statue appear alive.
Before the statue, on the mat.
Sitting crossed-legged was a woman in a thin, plain white dress.
The woman's long hair naturally fell, spreading like a waterfall onto the ground, her eyebrows like a painting, her skin like white jade.
"Sir..." Xiao Emei sensed the change in the air beside her and abruptly opened her eyes, immediately seeing Jiang Ning's figure.
Jiang Ning's gaze swept across Xiao Emei and asked, "Has Lin Qingyi been to the Water Moon Sword Palace?"
