Chapter Thirty-Six: Perhaps Violence Today

assed down from their ancestors. Now, there are few left.Such a precious quota, the Zhang family wasn't without people daring to take a gamble. But for several generations, the most outstanding offspr...After leaving Yue Guo, Jiang Wang went to Li Guo.

At this time, he did not travel under the name of Jiang Zhenren, nor did he visit anyone. He simply concealed his experiences and walked about this country in a plain and simple manner.

He used to rush through everything, but now he wants to untangle the threads of the mundane world. To grasp the "world" in the small world and the "truth" in true people, he needs to experience the different drops of life in the sea of suffering.

>

He still gave his time to practice, but the way of practice was different.

Of course, he also needed to observe carefully and, under the system of Kai Mai Dan, how different small countries handled the various problems in the process of manufacturing Kai Mai Dan. See if there were any valuable lessons to be learned—similar work had already been done by Du Yehu and Li Jianqiu, who had observed the situation of almost all small countries in Xijing. Jiang Wang himself had also seen quite a bit, such as the Xu Kingdom he had watched with Yin Guan a long time ago, and the Zhao Kingdom he had observed later…

But he still wants to take another look.

Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!

In the country of Li, besides quietly saving some people from beasts, he did nothing.

The so-called "a true man walks amidst dust and yet remains untouched."

Leaving Li Guo, he went to Liang Guo.

The Liang nation itself was not strong, what was strong was the Jian Ge and Xue He Sect that supported it.

Needing to contribute both of these major resources, the pressure Liang Guo faced from Kai Mai Dan wasn't as terrifying, at least not as intense as Jing Guo's demands on Zhuang Guo.

Because when masters throughout the world accept disciples, most prefer to have none rather than accept unsuitable ones. Only those with exceptional aptitude are allowed to enter. Naturally, the Qi-Opening Pills used by these carefully selected disciples wouldn't be inferior either.

Although the human race is not defined by their innate talent, and the quality of Qi-Opening Pills cannot determine everything, there are countless individuals throughout history who have used low-grade Qi-Opening Pills to awaken their meridians and ultimately become powerful cultivators.

But in the early stages of cultivation, some advantages can be established, and no one will let them go.

Most mediocre pills of the Opening Meridian kind, when it comes to large-scale transactions in the world, are mostly used as currency. This sect's disciples don't use too many.

This is one of the differences between the state system and the sectarian system—

The path of transcendence in a sect is pre-selected. Those who are not qualified enough will never have the chance, no matter how hard they try.

>

And the country gives everyone opportunities. As long as you are willing to work hard, to strive, in the competition of millions, if you can take a few steps forward and establish certain achievements, you will be able to obtain extraordinary resources. In this way, constantly competing, constantly moving upwards, and constantly contributing, the country also continuously provides support.

In Jiang Wang's view, the country is definitely more progressive than sects.

After the destruction and subsequent restoration of the country, Liang State's political landscape was quite unique due to its connections with two powerful empires. Master Jiang remained an observer, arriving and departing calmly amidst the tumult.

> Take experience as your boat and sail across the sea of suffering.

Let's see, it should be about time for my senior brother and Dou Zhao to arrive. He might as well head back home.

On the way back to Xingyueyuan from Liang State, one inevitably has to pass through Jiange.

>

Jiang Wang still consciously concealed himself, changing his flight to walking, choosing a small path.

Here is your translated text:

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The wild path is deserted, autumn wind blows through the desolate grass.

Mr. Jiang, with his sleeves fluttering in the wind, walked alone, enjoying an indescribable sense of ease.

But at the next moment, his raised boot was suspended in mid-air, unable to come down for a while.

And the wasteland was suddenly filled with tall, straight grasses, like swords pointing to the sky!

A thin, long straw suddenly appeared before his eyes.

>

Jiang Wang's figure shot back a thousand meters, but this stalk of straw, like a shadow, still followed him.

"I have met Lord Sige!" Jiang Wang bowed respectfully.

The thatched grass trembled slightly, and finally Si Yu'an’s voice rang out: "I am deeply sorry for the lack of a warm welcome, esteemed Master Jiang."

Jiang Wang's face turned pale. Si Yu'an was really going to make a move against him! He quickly softened his tone: "Master, you are magnanimous, please don't say such things. It would shame me! But what have I done to offend you"

"How dare I" Si Yu'an's voice replied, "I don't know if I have offended you."

“You’re speaking in riddles! You’re such a wonderful senior, with foresight and compassion. You always look out for the juniors... I'm eternally grateful and hold you in high regard!”

Then why are you sneaking around, lurking at the Jiange Mountain Gate Don't tell me you're here to ambush me

Jiang Wang said softly, "I was just passing by..."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Si Yu'an's voice rose slightly: "Master Jiang passing through our sect, if I don't respectfully come out to greet him, I fear I will be struck today."

Jiang Wang said with a smile, "You really like to joke."

The grass edge is like a blade, the sword cry transforming into sound: “It’s best if True Master Jiang considers this a joke. I just fear that True Master Jiang might not hear clearly, not speak it aloud, and harbor resentment in his heart.”

"How could you say such a thing" Jiang Wang exclaimed, "I have nothing but respect for the Lord of the Manor, I harbor no resentment!"

>

Si Yu'an's voice said: "If you have no grudge, why did you pass by Jian Ge and not even bother to visit this pavilion Of course, this is understandable. As the number one swordsman in history, you do have the qualifications to look down on this pavilion."

"I—intend to visit the Grandmaster," Jiang Wang forcefully explained. "But I arrived empty-handed, which is rude of a guest. The junior intends to return to Xingyueyuan to prepare some gifts and then come again to pay respects."

"There's no need for gifts," said Si Yu'an's voice. "Since you want to visit, come up the mountain."

That straw, with just one leap, had vanished. The withered grass on the ground lay prostrate as well.

What I want to visit you.

Ginger Wang had every intention of fleeing the scene, but she knew escape was impossible.

After thinking carefully, he realized that nothing had happened recently to offend Jian Ge. He then turned and walked towards Tianmu Peak.

Visiting Jian Ge was an awkward affair, especially with Si Yu'an being silent as a stone. He had to register and submit his application himself, passing through the watchful and wary eyes of the Jian Ge disciples, one hurdle after another.

Throughout the entire Jian Ge, he had offended everyone except Ning Shuangrong. There was no one who would look at him favorably.

The Jian Ge cultivators' hateful gazes fell upon him relentlessly, giving him a strange illusion — as if he were the world-dominating demon from a storybook, about to ascend the mountain and wreak havoc, annihilating all righteous sects in the world.

But who is the hero that saves the world

Jiange's chief disciple, Si Kong Jingxiao, and Jiange's most talented swordsmanship disciple Ning Shuangrong

I'm afraid it's still far off.

Then is it the Wuxin Jianzhu, Tu Shan Li

"What are you laughing at" Si Yu'an asked abruptly.

We have already arrived at the summit of Tianmu Peak. The challenge simulated against Si Yu'an with the Dreamlike Order has evolved into eight hundred rounds.

>

But this is an unsimulable real world. Jiang Wang forgot the image of the great demon king, cupped his hands, and let himself smile even more brightly: “Lord Pavilion Master, your demeanor is even more outstanding than before. Jiang Wang is so happy to see you!!!”

Sir Yu An said faintly: "I would like to thank you for taking care of me, my aging and deaf. Come in front of me and shout loudly."

>

“Okay.” Jiang Wang cooperated very well, taking a few steps back and controlling his voice strictly. “Is this volume suitable now Do you need to adjust it further”

Si Yu'an said again, "In front of this old man, you used secret methods to control the sound-hearers. Do you want to compare your Taoism with this old man"

“You’re right.” Jiang Wang stubbornly refused to argue back, admitting his mistakes and even changing the ones he didn't make: “I'm only in my twenties. How could I possibly compare to you”

“It’s hard to say, Master Jiang is notorious. Even a king can kill anyone he wants, that was before he became the number one true cultivator. Now that he's the top true cultivator, challenging my position is quite reasonable, wouldn’t you agree” Si Yu’an said expressionlessly, “I’m only one realm away from him.”

Jiang Wang sighed and bowed, saying, "Master, if you have something to say, just tell me directly! Talking like this makes me uneasy!"

Si Yu'an's face showed surprise: "Master Jiang, where did you get such an idea Am I forcing you This is really a misunderstanding."

"My elders have a matter to attend to, and I am willing to assist them. "Jiang Wang said with a self-assured smile: “I have always admired Jian Ge since childhood, and hold its master in high esteem. I would very much like to do something to express my admiration—I wonder if there is anything in Jian Ge that I could be of use for"

>

Si Yu'an's expression eased slightly: "Sit, Master Jiang."

Jiang Wang looked around. The place was on a high cliff, empty and desolate.

Besides the thatched hut in the distance, and the bluestone under Si Yu'an's buttocks, there was simply nowhere else to sit.

He respectfully said, “Master, how could I possibly be seated”

Si Yu'an nodded in satisfaction: "You child, I had high hopes for you a long time ago, and I was not mistaken. Young people like you who understand etiquette are rare these days!"

>

Jiang Wang just smiled modestly.

Then Si Yu'an asked, "Why have you come to Jian Ge"

>

Wasn't this your doing!

Jiang Wang pondered for a moment and said, "I want to visit you"

Si Yu'an probably couldn't hold on any longer, paused for a moment, and then said, "Not entirely, right"

Jiang Wang pondered for a moment, then said: "I wish to inquire about the sword, the Heavenly Sword Box"

Si Yu'an frowned.

Jiang Wang was truly at a loss: "Then—what am I doing this for"

Si Yu'an could only hint: "You have a friend in Jian Ge who shares your interests. You are about the same age and have similar talents... you still remember, don't you"

Jiang Wang was no longer smiling.

That's not good either.

Taking a step back, I pressed my hand against my sword and stood tall: "I'm afraid I cannot obey! My relationship with Ning Jianke is purely that of sword-fighting friends. There is no romantic involvement between us. Though you stand at the peak of transcendence, you cannot sway my heart!"

"You think too highly of yourself!" Si Yu'an was furious: "I merely want you all to exchange swordsmanship techniques and experience, like taking Frost Rong on some training expeditions. What spring and autumn dreams are you having!"

Jiang Wang's face was a little flushed: "That, haha, misunderstanding!"

Si Yu'an looked at him: "You also said that I take good care of you. Didn't you"

Jiang Wang instantly understood: "If there's ever a time to embark on an adventure together, I will take good care of Miss Ning. You don't have to say it, we are already fellow cultivators!"

Only then did Si Yu'an's face soften slightly: "You mentioned before that you returned to Xingyue Yuan and were still coming to Jian Ge. What was the reason"

"I came to see you for the gift."

"Alright, let's cut the crap."

Jiang Wangcheng honestly said: "I'm going to cultivate in the waters of misfortune for a while, and I'll still pass by Jian Ge. I can't escape it."

>

“Cultivate to ward off misfortune...”

“Of course, my team really needs a sword master. I'm just about to invite Miss Ning to join us!”

“This is your own business, young ones. This old man won't interfere.” The head steward's enthusiasm came and went quickly, with a flick of his sleeve: "Go now!"

Before leaving, Jiang Wang said again: "Since I am going down the mountain and have to go through layers of communication, it is really inconvenient. I will come again next time! Can the Lord grant me a pass so that I can travel back and forth without hindrance"

Si Yu'an had already adopted the posture of someone in quiet contemplation, too lazy to speak. He casually picked up a sword-shaped jade pendant and tossed it over.

Jiang Wang took it in his hand and strode away.

Of course, he wouldn't leave so easily.

Ginger someone's life is not inferior to others, it's not something you Si YUAN can call the shots.

At least I can't be taken advantage of!

As the greatest swordsman in history, how could I come to Jian Ge without a fight

He swiftly left the peak, his footsteps silent on the path. His target was clear: he was heading straight for the Celestial Sword Box.

Along the way, he occasionally encountered Jian Ge cultivators who blocked his path. He didn't say a word, simply presented the token given to him by Si Yu An, and passed through unimpeded.

Guarding the celestial sword repository is the strongest among the Five Sword Masters of Jiange: the Wanxiang Sword Master. His real name is lost to time, even Jiange itself can't recall it, but the title "Sword Madman" echoes throughout the world.

The Three Realms of Jian Ge are the Sword Aperture for all beings, the Heavenly and Earthly Sword Box, and the Sword Pavilion of Time.

Among them, the "Heaven and Earth Sword Box" where "the sword masters of all ages have come to seek the sword" is the most famous.

All those who enter Tiānmen Plank Road from the southeast, ultimately aim for the Heavenly Sword Box.

The rules of the Heaven and Earth Sword Box are: anyone who enters to test their swords within must, if victorious, be allowed to take one sword manual. If they lose, they must leave behind one sword manual.

It sounds very simple, but sword fighting is no holds barred. Countless swordsmen have died in this arena throughout history. Sword Pavilion cultivators consider it an honor to dye their sword scabbards with blood, and they often fight to the death.

When Jiang Wang came last time, she really wanted to try it. But because of the previous relationship, she first confronted Sikong Jingxiao, provoked the Unhearted Sword Master, and even threatened Si Yu'an... so she gave up the idea.

Now he is precisely in the process of refining the Yanfu Sword Abyss, and urgently needs a powerful sword canon to supplement his small world. And among all the sword techniques in the world, Jian Ge ranks first!

There is no better place than the Heavenly Sword Vault.

With his current strength, entering the Heaven and Earth Sword Box means only participating in the highest level challenge, facing the legendary "Sword Madman".

The reason people came here was for the countless exquisite sword manuals in the Heavenly Sword Box.

And his goal was to master all the sword techniques within the Heaven and Earth Sword Box, reaching the state of a sword maniac who has achieved the realm of "Myriad Forms as One"!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He wanted to spar with the Sword Sage, hoping to gain insights into countless peerless sword techniques.

To this end! He asked Si Yu'an for a life-saving token...

As long as Si Yu'an doesn't speak up in opposition, Jian Chi will naturally assume that he is a guest invited by Si Yu'an and therefore will not truly kill him.

Who dares to say that the first strategist in history is not truly unparalleled

The so-called Heavenly Earth Sword Box, externally, is a gigantic stone peak sword spanning the mountain platform square. Its hollow interior serves as the sword box, housing millions of volumes of sword scriptures. It is itself a sword, yet it utilizes Heaven and Earth as its container.

It never gives a sharp feeling. The wind and rain on the mountain have made its sword shape somewhat rounded.

But the closer Jiang Wang walked, the more he could feel Chang Xiangsi's excitement. For three million years, the strongest swords in the world have left their mark here. Countless peerless sword manuals are vying for supremacy here!

Here's the translation, keeping the HTML tags as they are:

Amongst all the swordsmen in the world, who wouldn't want to vie for the title of Sword Master here

Changsī is a renowned sword, having vanquished countless powerful adversaries. But within the Sword Master's Forest, it once again finds itself as a challenger.

Jiang Wang walked quietly.

To be gazed at, to be looked up to, to be feared.

The entrance to the Heaven and Earth Sword Box is located at the hilt of the Stone Peak Sword. A stone seal was carved, opening a large stone gate horizontally.

The stone gate bears mottled sword marks, devoid of any trace of sword intent. They look like the scribbles of a mischievous child wielding a sword. But true masters can sense that each mark is left by an unparalleled swordsman. However, their sword intent has been channeled into the celestial sword vault, leaving only these marks and empty forms behind!

Although the sword intent is faint, it still lingers with an echo.

Jiang Wang glanced, his mind filled with countless swordsmen, each sword striking...Then in an instant, the Hanfeng emerged, piercing through the Five Houses, traversing the Four Seas. All illusions vanished from his mind!

He glanced ahead nonchalantly.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

A familiar face stood before the gate — Sikong Jingxiao.

Day and night have changed.

Si Kong Jingxiao's mood was complicated.

At first, when Jiang Wang paid a visit, he lost with grace and also wished for future encounters. He dared to bear the sword and the red seal, naturally not afraid of failure or public opinion.

He has the courage that arises from desperation.

But the gap is too big. The real deal in history...

It's so bad that it's beyond repair.

This is a test.

"What are you doing here"

He raised his hand, barring the door.

After a long pause, he finally managed to utter, "Master Jiang!"

The words left his mouth.

He suddenly realized —

Before, Jiang Wang was rampant in Jian Ge, relying on the backing of Qi State.

Now, Jiang Wang is just the background.
