The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud - Chapter 1049: Shuang Jiang, Is That You?

Chapter 1049: Shuang Jiang, Is That You?

Li Lingxi looked in the direction Su Jingzhen pointed, her expression changing slightly.

She knew exactly who had been in that direction earlier.

This time, she had taken everyone through the void turbulence not only to ensure their safety, but also, as she had mentioned earlier, to “fish”.

To catch the big fish from the Martial God Hall.

And she, Li Lingxi, was only a high-level Immortal King. If the Martial God Hall sent someone as powerful as the Hunchbacked Immortal, she would be no match.

Therefore, whenever there was a major operation involving Li Lingxi, Shuang Jiang would inevitably be present.

Earlier, she had mentioned that all the marks on the Martial God Void Tower had been completely erased by Su Jingzhen. Shuang Jiang must have heard this, causing a fluctuation in her aura.

Unexpectedly, Su Jingzhen had felt this fluctuation.

Now, as Li Lingxi looked at Su Jingzhen, she found him to be increasingly unfathomable.

Having lived for so long, this was the first time she felt a sense of wariness towards a junior.

So much so that Li Lingxi couldn’t help but check Su Jingzhen’s bone age once again.

Indeed, he was less than thirty years old.

This made her even more astonished, as if he were a celestial being.

“Sect master, please.”

Seeing that Li Lingxi was still dazed, Su Jingzhen became even more worried and spoke again.

At this moment, his gaze seemed to penetrate through all the meteoroids ahead of him, landing on a graceful figure in a white dress.

“Shuang Jiang, is that you?”

Su Jingzhen softly murmured in his heart.

Since meeting Shuang Jiang and awakening the point system, he had experienced many things over the past year.

He had met many people and gained many confidants.

But deep in his heart, there was still a soft spot reserved for the figure who had lived with him in Peach Blossom Alley.

Li Lingxi snapped out of her thoughts and, without hesitation, led Su Jingzhen and the others in the direction he had pointed out.

She knew that they would not run into Shuang Jiang this time.

If she didn’t want to be seen, perhaps no one in the world could force her to appear.

After changing direction, Li Lingxi maintained her lightning-fast speed, but still found no trace of anyone.

After traveling for nearly the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, there was still no sign of anyone.

Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but feel disappointed. He could no longer sense even a hint of Shuang Jiang’s aura.

“How about it? Shall we continue?” Li Lingxi asked Su Jingzhen.

The latter smiled wryly and shook his head: “No need. Maybe it was just my imagination.”

……

At the same time, in the distant void, far away from Su Jingzhen and the others.

A figure in a snow-white dress, with a cold yet breathtakingly beautiful face, stood calmly on a rapidly flying meteoroid.

Her expression was full of complexity.

“You’ve given me enough surprises, but I still haven’t figured out how to face you.

I once said that if you could stand before me, I would give you a great opportunity.

I never expected you to come so soon, and the so-called great opportunity I had in mind now seems unnecessary for you.”

As she murmured to herself, a hint of regret flashed in Shuang Jiang’s eyes.

Before her words faded away, Shuang Jiang’s aura suddenly became sharp and intense.

She abruptly turned her head, looking into the depths of the void turbulence in the distance.

Two streams of light were rapidly approaching from there.

“Extreme Ice Hall Master, I advise you not to interfere in this matter.

I’ve said it before, if the Martial God Hall cannot retrieve the Martial God Void Tower, this matter is not over.”

Accompanied by a hoarse old voice, two figures suddenly appeared in front of Shuang Jiang.

One was the Hunchbacked Immortal she had fought before, and the other was entirely cloaked in black.

However, the aura emanating from this person was no weaker than that of the Hunchbacked Immortal.

Seeing this, Shuang Jiang was slightly startled.

She realized that even without the sensing ability of the Martial God Void Tower, these people had still managed to track her here.

However, a mocking smile appeared on her face: “Since you’ve come, there’s no need to hide. If I’m not mistaken, you must be the current hall master of the Martial God Hall, Wu Lingtian.

I never expected you to have entered the Immortal Emperor’s realm as well.”

As Shuang Jiang’s words fell, the black-cloaked man casually removed his hood, revealing his true appearance.

He was a rather rugged looking man with a thick beard, giving him an honest appearance.

Wu Lingtian then smiled and said, “Extreme Ice Hall Master, you should know that there has never been any enmity between the Martial God Hall and your Extreme Ice Hall, nor with the Divine Dan Sect.

I can tolerate my disciples being killed by members of the Divine Dan Sect. After all, in a battle between the younger generation, losing due to inferior skill is nothing to complain about.

I’ve never had any thoughts of revenge.

But taking our Martial God Void Tower is going too far.”

Wu Lingtian’s tone was calm.

As he spoke, there was no hostility in his demeanor.

At first glance, his words seemed reasonable.

But Shuang Jiang scoffed.

“In battle, spoils are inevitable. When you gave the Martial God Void Tower to Changyang Tiansha, you should have anticipated this outcome.

Changyang Tiansha and Su Jingzhen fought to the death. Since Su Jingzhen won, the Martial God Void Tower is rightfully his.

How can you take it back? The Martial God Hall is a dominant force in the cultivation world. Do you really lack such magnanimity?”

Shuang Jiang’s words were filled with sarcasm, leaving both the Hunchbacked Immortal and Wu Lingtian speechless for a moment.

Wu Lingtian then said, “Extreme Ice Hall Master, there’s no need for such mockery. If Extreme Ice Hall lost the ‘Luminous Crystal Sword’, wouldn’t you seek to retrieve it?”

Shuang Jiang smirked again: “No, I wouldn’t.”

Wu Lingtian: “……”

The Hunchbacked Immortal had already experienced Shuang Jiang’s strength firsthand.

Unless absolutely necessary, the Martial God Hall had no desire to resolve this matter with her through force.

Even though it was two against one, both Wu Lingtian and the Hunchbacked Immortal had hoped to resolve this peacefully.

They wanted to appeal to reason and emotion, but no matter what angle they took, Shuang Jiang seemed to have a retort ready.

They had no way to counter her.

“Since the Extreme Ice Hall Master insists on it, it seems there’s nothing more to discuss.

No matter what happens, the Martial God Hall’s treasure must be retrieved.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the auras of Wu Lingtian and the Hunchbacked Immortal surged.

Shuang Jiang’s expression turned serious, and she suddenly drew a translucent crystal sword.

This was the Luminous Crystal Sword that Wu Lingtian had mentioned earlier.

Although its aura was restrained, it was a divine artifact comparable to the Martial God Void Tower.

“I don’t know whether you’ll eventually reach your goal or not. But today, you will not get past me.”

Originally, Shuang Jiang and Li Lingxi had only intended to lure out the elders of the Martial God Hall. Wu Lingtian and the Hunchbacked Immortal were not part of their plan.

However, Shuang Jiang’s expression also showed a hint of excitement.

Although she appeared like a celestial maiden who had descended to the mortal world, she was undoubtedly a battle maniac.

Seeing this, Wu Lingtian and the Hunchbacked Immortal sighed, knowing that a battle was inevitable.
