GBP Chapter 128 Confrontation
Chapter 128 Confrontation
When asked, Jiang Tingwan hesitated for a long time, feeling inexplicably guilty.
"To put it simply, it is..."
After absorbing the inner elixir of the Thunder Python, Mu Yun finally awakened the Dustless Pearl and entered the late stage of the transformation realm. She also discovered that she was not Bai Wangshu.
On the way out to eat, he met Qing Lan, who discovered the fact that his cultivation had dissipated and that there was a possibility that Nangong Xiu might wake up.
Jiang Tingwan told Wen Bumian everything that had happened in the past two days in the most concise sentences. Every sentence was so explosive that Wen Bumian on the other side was silent for a long time.
"..."
Wen Bumian scratched his hair in confusion and pressed his temples. He had a thousand words to say but was choked with speech. Every movement seemed to be saying: He had only been away for a short while, and the situation had already developed to this extent?
Fortunately, Jiang Tingwan omitted the detail that he was the one who taught Mu Yun how to awaken the Dustless Pearl. Otherwise, Wen Bumian would have thought that he was the one who betrayed.
"Although it's a bit difficult to explain, it turns out that I did change the ending where Mu Yun eventually killed Bai Wangshu, and I successfully survived." There was a light of belief in my usefulness in her eyes.
There was a hint of disappointment in Wen Bumian's eyes, but he had to accept the current situation. "Maybe you are right. Changing Mu Yunzhong's personality and eliminating his black value can indeed prevent him from becoming an exception in this world."
Hearing his words, Jiang Tingwan's face revealed a sense of relief, but in the blink of an eye, he saw that his face suddenly became solemn, and the subject changed, "But, have you ever thought about the most important point?"
Jiang Tingwan asked, "What?"
"This is not a complete novel. The story has no ending, and we don't even know anything about many of the characters and settings." There was a fear born out of the unknown in his eyes.
Wen Bumian once again threw out an angle she had never thought of, and the eyes staring at her made her a little nervous.
"Perhaps the factors that influenced Mu Yunzhong were not just what we knew. Even after the awakening of an exceptional power like Zizaimen, even if it did not influence Mu Yunzhong to become the one with awakened consciousness, there would be another one, and we know nothing about that person."
"Maybe this is the real reason why I came to this world." When he said this, there was a faint glimmer of hope in Wen Bumian's eyes. He seemed to have found a reason for his transmigration into the book and even given himself a certain mission.
This separation was inconsistent with his usual caution and steadiness, and even revealed an almost imperceptible ambition in front of Jiang Tingwan.
Jiang Tingwan leaned back unconsciously, her heart was also fluctuating because of his words. She realized this since Xuantian Pavilion and Cangyu Sect appeared in front of her. Now that she is getting closer to the point where she will stop updating the story, more and more new characters are appearing, and her advantage as an author is gradually being lost.
Just like the main storyline of this book, Mu Qingge should have become a disciple of Sanyuan Sect to awaken the power of the star source, met the villain Mu Yunzhong, and fell in love with the male protagonist Luo Xingnan at the trial conference, and joined hands to fight against evil spirits.
But now it has seriously deviated, and this is not only because the male protagonist has not appeared since he was affected by some unknown force, but also because of the personal intervention of the author, her biological mother.
Realizing this, the monsters in the Colosseum became extremely important. "We must go to the Colosseum as soon as possible without delay."
Jiang Tingwan's expression suddenly became extremely serious, and he confirmed with Wen Bumian, "Can you tell the difference between those monsters at a glance?"
"Most of the pills like this that can help people improve their strength contain fragments of decomposed demon pills. After removing the remaining demon beast consciousness, only powerful power remains, and there is no risk of backlash."
"But since it is not one's own power, it is not easy to dissipate after entering the body. It stays for a long time and will mutate after combining with one's own power. That is why the Thunder Python awakened the power of thunder and lightning. It can only be discovered in battle."
After hearing this, Jiang Tingwan touched his chin unconsciously, and remembered the monster he had seen at the bottom of the cliff before. It was obviously a body-building beast, but it evolved into a Jindan state within a few days.
"In other words, those monsters that have taken the elixir are at least at the Jindan stage?" Jiang Tingwan judged.
Wen Bumian corrected: "To be precise, only monsters that have reached this level or above will show signs of weakness."
"The last time we entered the Colosseum, Shen Zhui said that the Thunder Python was the only spiritual beast that had transformed, and that there were restrictions on the same realm for the challenge. With your strength, you definitely can't go down, this matter..."
Jiang Tingwan thought about it and his eyes lit up, "It seems that I still need the cooperation of those brats."
After saying this, Wen Bumian already knew who she was talking about.
After the discussion, Jiang Tingwan and Wen Bumian reached a strategic consensus and went out together.
Ever since Sui Jiu turned back to her original form, she has loved sleeping more and more. Jiang Tingwan thought that this was her way of recovery, so she put her into the space ring that Situ Hongyi had given her before, so that she could travel with him and rest at the same time.
At the same time, the people in the yard turned around the moment the door opened and watched the two people going downstairs.
After seeing the people in the yard clearly, Jiang Tingwan paused slightly.
"Master, good morning." Mu Yunzhong's tone sounded like he was surprised after a chance encounter, and also like he had been waiting here for a long time.
Mu Yun finally called her master again, which made her feel as if she was in another world. The pressure from yesterday was still vivid in her mind, but today he had turned back into the obedient disciple he used to be.
"Haha... good morning!" Jiang Tingwan responded to him in a cowardly manner. Things had developed to this point, what else could he do but to play along.
Then, maintaining a standard smile, he slightly tilted his head and whispered to Wen Bumian, "He is already in the late stage of the transformation realm. Could he have heard everything we said just now?"
Hearing what they were going to do was no big deal, but hearing something out of this world could be fatal.
"What are you afraid of, I'm here for you." Wen Bumian smiled, lowered his head slightly, approached him and replied confidently, then walked in front of her and went downstairs first.
It was this kind of communication that Mu Yunzhong in the courtyard saw, but he felt uncomfortable. He frowned slightly, did she mean to find a backer?
Even though he thought so, his expression no longer looked friendly.
Jiang Tingwan was unsure, but when he saw Wen Bushian was calm and composed, not panicking at all, and when he saw Mu Yunzhong's expression didn't seem like he had heard anything, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Master and Sect Leader Wen, where are you planning to go so early?" Mu Yunzhong stared at Wen Bumian who was walking towards him, his eyes full of wariness.
The two seemed to be communicating something with their eyes, and the aura became strange.
"Your master and I suspected that the monsters in the Colosseum were different, so we were planning to go take a look." He responded directly, automatically grouping him and Jiang Tingwan together, and then said, "I heard that my nephew jumped two levels after the battle in the Colosseum and entered the late stage of the transformation realm in one fell swoop. He is only one step away from the next realm. It can be considered an adventure."
If Wen Bumian had called Jiang Tingwan "nephew" before he was exposed, it would not have been a big deal. But after he was exposed, when Wen Bumian, who had nothing to do with Bai Wangshu, said this, it sounded a bit like he was taking advantage of him.
Although Mu Yun never asked about his relationship with Wen Bumian, after knowing that he was not Bai Wangshu, he naturally thought that Wen Bumian should not have much friendship with Bai Wangshu.
After saying this, Wen Bumian stood right in front of Mu Yunzhong, his attitude neither humble nor arrogant, yet it seemed like he was doing it on purpose.
Jiang Tingwan, who saw and heard it all, said he didn't understand, but was greatly shocked. He wished he could kneel down immediately and kowtow to Wen Bumian and Mu Yunzhong at the same time.
“If you are talking about something amazing, it is said that the Sect Master was able to transcend from a mortal body to the lower heavenly realm within three years. Not only is this unprecedented, it has also shocked the entire world of immortal cultivation.” Although Mu Yunzhong’s words were a compliment, his eyes were full of doubt.
Wen Bumian replied, "It was just a coincidence. I got the hint from heaven. It was just a coincidence. I can't compare to you, Yun Zhong, who went from gathering Qi to such a state in just a few months. You are really a young person to be feared."
Mu Yunzhong suddenly smiled, and his inquiring eyes inadvertently swept over Jiang Tingwan, doubting the origins of the two.
"Heaven's secret? I wonder if the senior could teach me something or two?"
Upon hearing this and sensing Mu Yunzhong's suspicion, Jiang Tingwan could only stand out immediately, standing between the two of them, praising them left and right, "You are awesome, you are awesome too!"
"Let's not talk about polite greetings anymore. Let's put any ideas aside for now, okay?" Jiang Tingwan spoke in a tone like he was coaxing a child. He kept smiling at the two of them, just wanting to end the current situation.
He emphasized, "The most important thing now is to go to the Colosseum. Wen Bumian brought back a message from the Cangyu Sect, saying that the Cangyu Sect had sent out half of its forces to bring back a batch of monsters of different realms from outside the city. Now we suspect that these monsters were specially cultivated by someone using elixirs, so we want to go to the Colosseum to confirm it. You should come with us."
Jiang Tingwan blinked twice in a flattering manner, waiting for his agreement. Although she didn't really need him, if she left him first in the inn, she was afraid that she would have to face another round of questioning when she returned.
