Chapter 187 Jiang Junze
Disciples came and went in the External Affairs Hall to receive and return tasks. Jiang Liqian found an inconspicuous place to lean against.
After a while, the disciples who were going to Shennong Domain arrived one after another.
First came Zhao Zhang and his companion Sun Li, then Song Ziming and Xin Sui. Ye Anan came with Shui Lianer, Qin Beiyao and others.
Then there was Chen Huasheng, who had fought against her, and Yun Ruyi, who defeated her opponent in just a few moves.
What she didn't expect was that Cao Xian was also among the candidates to go to Shennong Domain.
Although Cao Xian's strength is not weak among the disciples of Qimingzhai, he can only be ranked in the middle. How did he get this position?
Jiang Liqian was puzzled, but she didn't dwell on it and continued to look at the people gathering at the door of the Foreign Affairs Hall.
She was not familiar with the rest of the people, at most they were just familiar faces. Most of them were inner disciples, but there were also two outer disciples among them. Judging from how familiar they were with Chen Huasheng, they must have had a good relationship with each other when they were in the outer sect.
In the crowd, Shui Lian'er was still looking for her figure everywhere. She didn't stay for long and walked towards them.
As soon as Shui Lian'er saw her, she immediately trotted over and put her arm around her.
For a moment, she seemed to feel a burning gaze fixed on the arms that were linked together with Shui Lian'er.
Her eyes paused slightly, and she immediately looked in the direction of that gaze.
However, she didn't see anyone looking at them.
Is it an illusion?
Zhao Zhang and others came over to say hello, and she put the vague feeling behind her.
Yun Ruyi, who was pretending to talk to Ye Anan and the others, clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves.
She tried hard to maintain a gentle and calm expression on her face, but her heart was almost unable to hold back, and she wanted to rush over and separate the two people's hands.
Dazzling.
It’s really dazzling!
Obviously, in the past, she was the only one who dared to hold her arm intimately and willfully snatch all her attention.
Even that bitch Shen Qingqing can't be compared with her.
Now, now...
Her nails dug deep into the flesh, and her smile became more gentle, but her heart ached violently.
"Ruyi, you don't look well. Are you nervous about entering the secret realm of Shennong Domain?" an inner sect female disciple asked with concern.
Yun Ruyi quickly waved her hands, a flawless smile appearing on her face. Just as she was about to say something, she felt someone looking at her.
very familiar.
Clear and cold.
Just like before.
Her aching heart suddenly stopped. She turned her head to look, but the other person had already looked away.
Without any hesitation.
She stared blankly at the beautiful figure surrounded by the crowd, and her eyes suddenly turned red.
Shui Lian'er asked doubtfully, "Li Qian, who are you looking at?"
Jiang Liqian shook her head: "Nothing."
Then he asked, "Who is the disciple leading the team, and why hasn't he come yet?"
There is only half a quarter of an hour left before the final gathering time. Why hasn’t the leading disciple arrived yet?
Qin Beiyao lowered his voice and said, "I've inquired. The disciple who brought us into the Shennong Territory this time seems to be the eldest elder's most senior disciple. He has been in seclusion for three years and has rarely appeared in the sect since then."
"I heard that senior brother has an arrogant and aloof personality, and is a man of few words, but he's incredibly gifted with top-grade golden spiritual roots. The Great Elder treasures him like the apple of his eye. It just so happened that this time, he came out of seclusion, and the once-in-a-lifetime secret realm of Shennong Domain was opened to our disciples, so this assignment fell on him..."
"Click!" A crisp sound interrupted Qin Beiyao's words.
Shui Lian'er and Qin Beiyao looked at her together.
Jiang Liqian was lost in thought, and after a long while, she slowly bent down, picked up her disciple jade token, and hung it around her waist again.
"Li Qian..."
"I just lost my touch suddenly, don't worry about it."
Although she said so, Shui Lian'er and Qin Beiyao could sense her momentary loss of composure just now.
Could it be related to the disciple of the Great Elder?
However, Li Qian had just entered the Qiankun Sect and had never seen that disciple before!
Shui Lian'er was not as patient as Qin Beiyao, and she wanted to ask something when she couldn't hold it in any longer. However, at this moment, a golden sword light suddenly fell in front of them.
The golden light dissipated, and a white shadow slowly emerged from the light.
His eyebrows were as sharp as swords, his eyes were as bright as stars, and his blade-like features were like a sword ready to be unsheathed at any time.
Awe-inspiring, cold and distant.
He is extraordinarily handsome, his white clothes are whiter than snow.
Around him, there seemed to be a three-step vacuum zone that kept strangers away.
The female disciples in the team were all stunned, and several of them blushed.
Only Jiang Liqian's face turned pale, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
A sharp and cold gaze suddenly fell on her. Jiang Liqian bit her lower lip hard to prevent herself from showing any abnormality.
Fortunately, the gaze quickly passed over her face without leaving any trace.
"My name is Jiang Junze, and I'm the senior leading the team this time. Before we set off, I have three things to say: First, anyone who leaves the team without reason will have their place revoked; second, anyone who disobeys orders will be expelled from the team; and third, anyone who behaves in a spoiled manner will be expelled immediately.
"If you have committed any of these three offenses, or feel you are about to commit any of these three offenses, you can leave now. Shennong Territory does not accept the weak."
The cold and indifferent voice was as cold as mountain gold, stone and jade. The team immediately fell silent, and no one stood up for a long time.
This is normal. Shennong Domain is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Who wouldn’t want to go there?
Besides, those requirements are not too harsh.
Jiang Junze swept his cold gaze over the crowd, and then threw out an exquisite ship carved from white jade. The ship grew larger in the wind, and finally became as tall as a hill. There were ten floors from top to bottom, and each floor was very elegant and beautiful, with lingering fragrance and hazy lights.
It looks very much like the pleasure boats that kings and princes use to cruise on the lake.
"Get on board." Jiang Junze flew up on his sword and landed on the deck of the jade boat.
The disciples below boarded the boat one after another. Shui Lian'er and Jiang Liqian walked behind, and Qin Beiyao followed at the end. After they boarded the boat, they each chose a house they liked to stay in.
Jiang Liqian was not particular about where to live, but Shui Lian'er looked around and chose three rooms next to each other. She lived in the middle, and gave one room on the left and one on the right to her and Qin Beiyao.
After everyone had chosen a house, the boat shook, slowly floated up, and sank into the clouds.
The journey from Qiankun Sect to Jishen Sect is long. If one were to fly on a sword, it would probably take at least ten days or half a month to get there. However, this jade boat is one of the Qiankun Sect's top-grade spiritual treasures, and it can travel a thousand miles a day. A journey that would take half a month can be reached in three days.
On the way, Shui Lian'er hesitated to speak to Jiang Liqian, but couldn't help but ask her in a low voice out of curiosity: "Liqian, your last name is Jiang, and Senior Brother Jiang's last name is also Jiang. You... aren't distant cousins?"
Qin Beiyao also looked at her eagerly.
To be honest, he also had this doubt.
Otherwise, how to explain Jiang Liqian's abnormality?
