However, the second elder was stopped by Jiang Tianhua at this moment.
"Second Elder, I hope you won't be impulsive now."
Then he turned his head and said to Yang Hui: "Yang Hui, I know that we have done a lot of things that have damaged your trust before, and I know that it is too late to restore it now. But you are still a Jiang family member, and I hope you can do it for me.
After considering the future of the Jiang family, I will not pursue the death of Yang Sui and Yang Mang. Whether they brought it upon themselves or for some other reason, they are already dead, and I hope you will not vent your anger on the Jiang family again."
Yang Hui was a little surprised. He didn't expect Jiang Tianhua to surrender to him.
"But I can't give you the Qingcheng Sword yet." Seeing Yang Hui's anger welling up, Jiang Tianhua said hurriedly: "Listen to me first. Previously, Brother Shi and Brother Sun from the Wan Teng Sect came to our Jiang family to look for them.
He passed you and said that if you cannot climb the second floor of Wanteng Pagoda in three years, then Wanteng Sect will no longer accept you.
You are a member of the Jiang family. At that time, your lack of strength was obvious to everyone. No one thought you would succeed, so we didn’t mention it again. But it’s different now. Your growth rate is much faster than we expected.
, and judging from this speed, it won’t be difficult to climb to the second floor of Wanteng Pagoda.”
"If I were to simply ask you, I'm afraid you wouldn't be too willing. So for the sake of the future of my family, I can only exchange the Qingcheng Sword. After you ascend to the second floor of the Wanteng Pagoda, I will definitely exchange this Qingcheng Sword."
The city sword is presented with both hands. As compensation, you can choose three things from the Jiang Family Treasure Pavilion."
Yang Hui looked at Jiang Tianhua and found that Jiang Tianhua's eyes were so pure at this moment. It seemed that Jiang Tianhua really put down his status as the head of the family for the sake of the future of the Jiang family.
But despite this, Yang Hui still shook his head.
"No. I don't agree!"
"Yang Hui, you are so shameless!" the second elder continued to make noises from the side.
Jiang Tianhua stopped the second elder again and said, "I have given in so much, why don't you agree?"
Yang Hui sneered, "Concession? What a concession. If I were not the person involved, I would have been deceived by your sweet words. What's more, I am probably the one who made the concessions repeatedly. Back then, the second elder secretly stole my father.
Dear Qingcheng Jian, what did you say to me in the living room? And now, I have won the first place in the four-family competition, what did you say? Breaking your promise again and again, this is what you call
Concession? What if I
Promise you again today. When I climb up to the Wan Teng Pagoda in the future, will I still be able to get this Qingcheng Sword according to your tricks? So just say a word whether you will give it to me today. If not, wait until I become stronger.
, I will ask for it from you again in the future, but I won’t use my words like this now. At that time, you will not say that I am your Jiang family. There is no place for me in the Jiang family, which does not mean that there is no place for me in this world.
Hui’s foothold!”
Jiang Tianhua smiled bitterly and shook his head. It seemed that the young boy back then had become so cautious in handling things now.
"Alas, you don't believe me or the Jiang family, so I can't give you this Qingcheng Sword."
Mengmeng obviously already knew everything about the matter, and saw through Jiang Tianhua's hypocritical mask, and sneered: "I think Yang Hui is right, I'm afraid if Yang Hui boarded the Wanteng Pagoda, you Qingcheng
I’m afraid I won’t hand over the sword.”
A trace of displeasure suddenly appeared on Jiang Tianhua's face, and he said: "Miss Mengmeng, I respect you as a member of the auction house, so I have to tolerate you again and again, but please don't make any judgments on your own, Miss Mengmeng."
"Oh? Then why didn't Mr. Jiang family swear to the stars just now?" Mengmeng smiled slightly, but her eyes looked at Jiang Tianhua and others with some contempt.
Now she has almost all her treasure on Yang Hui, so naturally she wants to fight for some benefits for Yang Hui at this moment.
"Swear?" How could Jiang Tianhua not know what this oath means? On Tiantong Continent, there is a rule that if you remove all your star points from your body and then swear to these star points, then this will
The oath will be imprinted on one's own star points. If the oath is violated, these star points will be permanently sealed.
When the star point is sealed, it means that all of the person's cultivation will be invalidated, and there will be no chance of a comeback. This is undoubtedly a disaster for a monk.
Jiang Tianhua hesitated for a moment, but suddenly a light flashed in his eyes.
"If Yang Hui doesn't believe me, then why not give me an oath?"
Smiling slightly, Jiang Tianhua showed a frank expression, his eyes widened, and five star dots floated out of his right eye. Then, five star dots also floated out of his left eye.
A total of ten three-pointed stars floated quietly in front of Jiang Tianhua.
But when Yang Hui looked at Jiang Tianhua's expression, he felt something was wrong. It seemed that it was too natural.
Just as Jiang Tianhua was about to swear, Xuanli's voice suddenly entered Yang Hui's soul space.
"He still has a star point! If the star point is not completely separated from the body, the oath will be useless."
Yang Hui narrowed his eyes, and sure enough, Jiang Tianhua had something up his sleeve. If Xuan Li hadn't been there, he and Mengmeng would have been deceived today.
"Slow down!" Yang Hui interrupted Jiang Tianhua.
Jiang Tianhua was slightly shocked, but it passed quickly. He immediately put on a kind expression and said, "Yang Hui, do you have any questions?"
Yang Hui snorted coldly and said, "Yes, of course, and my question is very simple."
Yang Hui stared into Jiang Tianhua's eyes and continued: "Take out your last star point!"
As soon as Yang Hui said these words, Jiang Tianhua suddenly broke into a cold sweat and was shocked. "How does Yang Hui know that he has reached the sixth level? Is he deceived?"
However, Jiang Tianhua pretended to be calm and said: "Yang Hui, don't make fun of me. How can I have the sixth level of strength?"
"Don't you admit it? Master, do you dare to try it with a stone specially designed to test eye power?"
This star point can be faked, but the pupil test stone cannot be faked at all. As soon as Yang Hui said these words, Jiang Tianhua knew that he could no longer hide it.
"Good boy, how do you know I have another star?"
"Don't forget, the talisman master's perception is very powerful."
A star appeared in Jiang Tianhua's eyes again, slowly left the body, and reunited with the previous ten star points.
"I swear with all my cultivation, if I don't return the Qingcheng Sword to Yang Hui after Yang Hui ascends to the second floor of Wan Teng Pagoda, then I am willing to lose all my eye power."
The oath was very simple, but after Jiang Tianhua finished speaking these few words, the twelve stars in front of him seemed to have a trace of connection with each other.
"Yang Hui, can you rest assured now?"
Yang Hui nodded and said: "I can agree to the conditions you mentioned before, but I also want the fragments of the third life stone in the hands of the second elder!"
Although Yang Hui didn't know what the use of these three life stone fragments was, but since he was able to seduce the second elder and was willing to steal the Qingcheng Sword for Yang Mang, it meant that the value of these three life stone fragments was probably even higher than the Qingcheng Sword.
"Yang Hui, don't go too far!"
The second elder was almost furious at this moment, but he didn't expect that Yang Hui would actually come up with his own idea at this time.
"Second Elder, just give it to him."
"Tianhua, this..."
"Give it to him!" Jiang Tianhua was already a little bit disgusted with the second elder. He repeatedly criticized his face and made the Jiang family lose a genius like Yang Hui.
Seeing that Jiang Tianhua had made up his mind, the second elder could only angrily hand over the fragments of the Three Life Stones to Yang Hui.
"I'm tired. You know where the treasure pavilion is. You can go there by yourself later."
Yang Hui and Mengmeng walked out of the living room, and Yang Hui felt the three life stone fragments with his heart. This fragment was only the size of a thumb, but the rich vitality in it made Yang Hui feel light all over.
"It seems that this time it's not such a loss." Yang Hui carefully placed the fragments of the Three Life Stones into the sachet given by Yang Xin.
In fact, when the second elder went out to stop him in the ring, Yang Hui knew that he might not be able to get the Qingcheng Sword back for the time being.
Sure enough, in the Jiang family's living room, Jiang Tianhua threatened to climb the Wanteng Pagoda.
Naturally, Yang Hui didn't want to climb the Wan Teng Pagoda, but after all, Yang Hui's strength was low. If he refused to obey, I'm afraid it would harm Meng Meng.
But Jiang Tianhua is cunning and cunning. If it weren't for the help of Mengmeng and Xuanli, he might not be able to get back the Qingcheng Sword even if he ascends to the Wanteng Pagoda in the future.
But at the moment, improving your strength is still the most important thing. When you become stronger, getting back the Qingcheng Sword is probably just a matter of words, so there is no need to go through so much trouble.
However, this created a conflict with the Jiang family. Yang Hui accepted this suggestion on the surface, but after all, it was the Jiang family who was always going back on their word and teasing themselves. So in the future, when he becomes stronger, he will definitely want these things.
Ask for it back.
Just as he was thinking about it, he unknowingly arrived at the Jiang Family's Treasure Pavilion. Without Xuanli's reminder, Yang Hui went straight to the small utility room on the second floor.
"Teacher, which piece of the Hundred Rivers Map are you talking about?"
Yang Hui kept fiddling with the iron pieces under his feet.
When Yang Hui pressed his hand on an iron piece covered with soil, Xuanli immediately signaled Yang Hui to pick it up.
Peeling off the soil on top, the layer of iron sheets with fine patterns underneath was immediately revealed.
"This is... a map?" Yang Hui fiddled with it for a long time, but couldn't figure out why. There were ravines and all kinds of weird marks on it. It was obvious that Yang Hui had never been exposed to these things before.
"Nonsense, of course it's a map, but you may not recognize the marks on it. Moreover, the Hundred Rivers Map is very old, and some of the terrain on it may not match the current situation, so finding the earth souls recorded on it is not an easy task.
It’s an easy thing.”
"Yeah." Yang Hui nodded and put away the picture of hundreds of rivers.
Yang Hui knew that he was fine in close combat, but he was not capable of fighting from a distance. If he encountered someone like Sima Hui and Sima Hong who attacked from a distance, he would probably be the one to lose.
Therefore, it is very practical to choose a long-range attack pupil technique or weapon in the Jiang Family Treasure Pavilion.
After choosing a spiritual-level Purple Yang Bow and some eye skills, Yang Hui and Mengmeng left the Jiang family together.
"Sister Mengmeng, I'm afraid I will have to leave here too after some time."
Mengmeng smiled and said: "Golden scales are not things in the pond. You should be careful along the way. If you encounter any difficulties, you can go to any auction house and take out the gold card I gave you last time to contact me.
.”
"Thank you Sister Mengmeng. Sister Mengmeng has helped Yang Hui deeply in his heart for so many days. He will definitely come to express his gratitude in the future." Yang Hui cupped his fists and said.
"There's no need to thank me. I just hope you can help me if my auction house is in trouble in the future." Mengmeng looked at Yang Hui and saw the sincerity in Yang Hui's eyes, and she couldn't help but feel some strange feelings in her heart.
From the beginning to the end, Mengmeng only helped Yang Hui as a businessman to invest in Yang Hui. But at this moment, Mengmeng suddenly felt that Yang Hui had a friend.
"That's natural. As long as Sister Mengmeng says hello, I, Yang Hui, will do whatever it takes."
"It would be great if I could help Qing'er. Alas, he is such a miserable child." Mengmeng murmured.
"Sister Mengmeng, what did you say?"
"No, it's nothing. Be careful along the way. Qi Dong of the Sima family seems to have other backgrounds. In short, try not to cause trouble in the future. Everything will be difficult after leaving Tianhua City."
Yang Hui nodded heavily and said, "Farewell!"
"Go well."
Looking at Yang Hui's back, Mengmeng said softly: "This Yang Hui will definitely become a great person in the future."
[Author's digression]: The first volume ends and the second volume is about to begin. The prelude to Tiantong Continent is about to begin, and more and more mysteries are gradually emerging. How should Yang Hui make a decision?
