After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 492 Sisters vs. Masters and Apprentices!
"It's bad, my appetite has decreased!"

When Jiang Che heard that the ancestor of the Guo family agreed to his conditions without hesitation, he instantly realized that his vision seemed a little low and he really regretted it.

But the conditions have been set, and it is considered an agreement, so it is not easy to raise them again.

He nodded immediately:

"Old Master Guo is straightforward. If that's the case, then let's make this agreement."

Although the compensation requested was less, Jiang Che did not feel too regretful. After all, no matter what, the Guo family also had a martial arts saint in charge. If he asked for too much, the talks would fail.

Even if he is not afraid, the loss outweighs the gain.

With his current skills, he could only ensure that he would not fall into the hands of a Martial Saint, but wanting to suppress a Martial Saint was nothing short of a fantasy.

The Guo family patriarch stood with his hands behind his back, stroked his beard and chuckled when he heard this:

"In that case, I will take my leave now. If you have the chance, you can come to Yingchuan to discuss this with me. Although I cannot be called a genius, I do have some experience to share."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

Jiang Che smiled and stood up to see him off.

"The old man will go."

The ancestor of the Guo family had a thought, and his figure quickly disappeared between heaven and earth. In a blink of an eye, only Jiang Che and Guo Zixing were left in the hall. The two looked at each other.

Guo Zixing quickly said:

"The Thunder Heart Beads and 100,000 Yuan Crystals will be delivered within three days, but my Guo family members are scattered all over the place, so it will take some time to gather them together. Please don't blame me, Lord."

Guo Zixing's greatest reliance is his own ancestor, so when facing Jiang Che, even though he was shocked by Jiang Che's strength, he was definitely not afraid.

But this time, when he saw that his ancestor, a Martial Saint, was humble enough to befriend Jiang Che, he realized that Jiang Che's methods were beyond his imagination, and his attitude was even more humble than at the beginning.

"Okay, then I will wait for good news from Patriarch Guo."

"Aunt Zhao, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are getting prettier and prettier."

In the City Lord's Mansion, Qi Ningbing, dressed in a green palace dress, was graceful and elegant. She raised her eyes and stared at Zhao Xianzhi with a smile, as if she was very friendly, but her address sounded a bit flattering.

She was the first person to guess that Jiang Che and Zhao Xianzhi might have a relationship, but she did not expose it at the time. Instead, she let her sister test it first, and the result was not beyond her expectations.

As expected, Zhao Xianzhi was having an affair with her husband.

And, most importantly, Zhao Xianzhi seemed unwilling to be inferior to her sisters, and took the opportunity to win over Huang Shanshan and accepted her as his disciple.

What does it mean?
It was clearly a combination of master and disciple to compete with the two sisters.

If Jiang Che just wanted to marry a woman, she would have no objection, but there must be a first come first served rule, right? If she just endured it silently, wouldn't she be looked down upon?

However, Jiang Che was under too much pressure at that time. Even though she received the message from her sister, she still did not go to Yuezhou to fight with Zhao Xianzhi and his apprentice.

She didn't leave until the situation was stable.

It was a pity that Zhao Xianzhi avoided her in the past few days and she had to wait for several days before he showed up.

Zhao Xianzhi smiled faintly, smoothed her long skirt, and slowly sat down opposite Qi Ningbing. In terms of her elegance and grace, she was not inferior to Qi Ningbing at all, and was even slightly better.

Of course, this is only in terms of temperament. In terms of exquisite appearance, the two are actually on par.

Compared to Qi Wanjun, she was more wary of Qi Ningbing. She was familiar with the Qi sisters and knew that among the two sisters, Qi Wanjun was the one who was not good at speaking.

But Qi Ningbing is very clever and has a lot of ideas.

Although she had never thought of competing for favor, as an elder, how could she be outshined by two little girls?
"Ningbing, you are much more well-behaved than when you were a child."

Zhao Xianzhi chuckled.

"Sister Ningbing."

Huang Shanshan greeted quietly.

"Shanshan, what does it feel like to have Aunt Zhao as your teacher?"

“Not bad”

Huang Shanshan's face unconsciously flushed.

The first lesson her master taught her after she became his disciple was that master and disciple share the same husband, which made her somewhat shy.

"By the way, I heard from my sister that Aunt Zhao is also following her husband. When will she be married? Although Ning Bing is young, she still knows the rules. When the time comes, she must give Aunt Zhao a big red envelope."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Xianzhi's face suddenly became a little embarrassed. He raised his hand, picked up the teacup on the stone table and said with a smile:

"Isn't that necessary?"

"What, Aunt Zhao, are you embarrassed? Hey, I was just joking. If Aunt Zhao doesn't like it, forget it. I'll let my husband give you the red envelope when the time comes."

Qi Ningbing narrowed her peach blossom eyes, and a faint curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Zhao Xianzhi raised his eyes and was about to say something, but suddenly, he sensed Jiang Che's presence, and then put down the teacup with a slightly gloomy expression:

"Ningbing, I really don't mean to compete for your favor. Can't we just get along well in the future? Otherwise, it will be difficult for Jiang Lang to do things."

"Ok?"

Qi Ningbing was stunned for a moment.

She was not criticizing Zhao Xianzhi, she just felt that Zhao Xianzhi was hooking up with Huang Shanshan and was trying to make things difficult for the two sisters, so she heard Zhao Xianzhi say that.

Her heart moved. Although she didn't sense any breath, she knew that Jiang Che had come. She sighed lightly and took Zhao Xianzhi's soft hand and said:

"Sister Zhao, what are you talking about? From now on, we are all your husband's women and we will all be a family. Sister is so much older than you, so we will be together in the backyard.

My sister is the one who makes the decisions.”

As they spoke, the two looked at each other at the same time. Then, with a lot of meaning in their eyes, Zhao Xianzhi laughed:
"That's right. We're all family from now on. There's no such thing as who's older and who's younger. Ningbing, if you have any questions about your cultivation in the future, just come and find Aunt Zhao."

Outside the garden, Jiang Che walked in, looked at the people who had a harmonious relationship, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. He knew that these women in the backyard could distinguish the importance of things.

But I also know that they are not easy to deal with.

Either she is the legitimate daughter of an aristocratic family, or she is the legitimate descendant of a prominent clan.

When it comes to character, everyone is pretty much the same.

"I've neglected you guys these past few days."

Jiang Che walked up to the few people, greeted them, looked at Qi Ningbing and Huang Shanshan and smiled. He had been very busy these past few days, either recruiting holy soldiers or not.

It's about dealing with some post-war compensation.

"My husband has a lot of things to do, and he has been working hard these past few days."

Huang Shanshan poured tea for Jiang Che.

Qi Ningbing sighed softly:
"Alas, it's a pity that my father wouldn't let me come, so I couldn't see my husband killing people everywhere and shocking the people of Yue."

"It doesn't matter. There will be opportunities in the future."

Jiang Che gently stroked Qi Ningbing's long hair, then turned to Zhao Xianzhi:

"Is your injury all right?"

"It's just some minor injuries, nothing serious." "By the way, where's Wanjun?"

"My sister is practicing. She said that even if she can't catch up with you, she can't slack off." Qi Ningbing said as her eyes turned and she suddenly said, "It's a pity that my sister is too stupid. She obviously can quickly improve her cultivation by practicing with her husband, but she insisted on meditating and refining qi."

"Okay, I'll go over and help Wanjun practice later."

Jiang Che naturally knew what Qi Ningbing meant. After not seeing her for a long time, he must have been a little anxious.

"Why wait a while? You finally have some free time. Let's go over there now. By the way, we sisters will reward you well."

Qi Ningbing immediately stood up and pulled Jiang Che to the secret room.

"You guys go first, I'll go back to practice."

Although Zhao Xianzhi was not afraid of forming a group of three, he had to be with his apprentice. He still felt a little uncomfortable being with the two sisters of the Qi family.

"Sister Zhao, we are all family, so why should we be so formal? My husband has worked hard this time. As women, we can't help much openly, but shouldn't we help behind the scenes?"

Qi Ningbing quickly grabbed Zhao Xianzhi.

This time she came here to start a group.

In order to prevent Zhao Xianzhi from always putting on airs, she smiled secretly as she thought about the treasures she had prepared. She decided to make Zhao Xianzhi happy this time so that he would know who was the eldest wife.

"Isn't this bad?"

Zhao Xianzhi quickly asked Jiang Che for help.

But Jiang Che was happy about this, and was eager to take their relationship to the next level. He immediately stood up, hugged the submissive Huang Shanshan and said, "Ningbing is right. We are all family, and we are just joking together."

Zhao Xianzhi pursed her lips, still unable to accept it. Especially when she saw Qi Ningbing's eyes, she guessed that this little girl had no good intentions:
"Forget it, you guys go ahead, I'm not feeling well."

"Sister Zhao, if you feel uncomfortable, just let your husband give you an injection. You don't want us to eat meat, so you have to endure the loneliness outside?" Qi Ningbing continued to persuade.

The corners of Zhao Xianzhi's eyes twitched. She looked at Qi Ningbing with a provocative look and took a deep breath. She was a dignified Yuanshen Venerable and the Master of Qingxiao Sword. Was she afraid of two little girls?

"Then let's go."

After Zhao Xianzhi agreed, Qi Ningbing was secretly delighted, and quickly pulled Jiang Che and Huang Shanshan into the secret room. After everyone went in, she closed the door heavily.

Finally, only a few exclamations were heard from the secret room.

"Hey, Ningbing, what is this?"

"Little Jade Radish, this is a treasure specially prepared for you, Sister Zhao."

"Ah? Prepared for me?"

"Yes, sister, hold Aunt Zhao down and I'll install it for her."

"No, no, why are there words on it?"

"Hey, this 'safe coming and going' means to pray for your husband. You also hope that your husband will be safe in the future, right?"

"No, no, Jiang Che, say something!"

"Ah? Well, it looks pretty good to me. How about pressing it?"

"Sister Xianzhi, there is no difference between the big and small in bed. You are uncomfortable. Hurry up. Your husband is still waiting for Ping An."

Late at night, on the roof of a house in the City Lord's Mansion, Jiang Che was sitting in a loose brocade robe, with no sadness or joy in his eyes. He seemed to be pondering the great way of heaven and earth, without emotion or desire.

If he had run out of ideas before, he could now be said to have run out of ideas.

Thinking back to the previous battle, he was somewhat impressed by Qi Ningbing's knowledge. Things like jade carrots, small bells, and fox tails were eye-opening for someone like him with extraordinary means.

That is why he fought with all his might this time.

The conversation lasted a whole day before it ended.

Of course, the game ended with his victory. As for the two sisters of the Qi family and the master and apprentice Zhao Xianzhi, they were all still sleeping soundly downstairs.

Before leaving, he saw several people twitching unintentionally.

It was definitely a bloody battle.

But after this battle, Jiang Che became extremely clear-headed both mentally and physically.

call.
There was a sound of wind blowing beside him, Jiang Che turned his head with a smile:

"wake up?"

Zhao Xianzhi blushed and lightly hit Jiang Che on the back:

"Why are you like this? How can I face people in the future?"

She originally thought that her joining forces as master and disciple to deal with Jiang Che was already unorthodox enough, but she didn't expect that there was someone more courageous than her. Qi Ningbing's small magic weapons gave her a lot of trouble.

But Jiang Che didn't stop her, and although her cultivation was not weak, she obviously couldn't really get angry. In the end, she was severely punished by the two sisters with the jade carrot.

Thinking about it now, she felt uncomfortable all over.

"It's just a family joke."

Jiang Che hugged Fairy Zhao's slender waist and whispered comforting words.

"Okay, that's what you said. Next time I give those two sisters my treasure, you can't stop me." Zhao Xianzhi glared at Jiang Che and said, obviously remembering today's 'joke'.

"Okay, as long as you don't go too far, I won't stop you."

Hearing Jiang Che say this, Zhao Xianzhi snorted softly and fell into Jiang Che's arms, secretly thinking about carving some words on the jade carrot that would be enough to torture him.

A few days later, the Yingchuan Guo family fulfilled their promise and delivered the 100,000 Yuan crystals and the evil-repelling Thunder Heart Pearl to the City Lord's Mansion in Yangping Pass. At the same time, the court's reward also arrived at Yangping Pass.

Jiang Che officially changed from the Marquis of Guanjun to the Duke of Wu'an.

In addition to the posts of Governor of Yuezhou, General Zhennan, and Divine Envoy of the Antarctic, he could be said to be a genuine frontier official. Even in terms of power, he far exceeded that of Li Chengguo.

In an instant, Jiang Che's prestige reached its peak.

But at the same time, Jiang Che also knew that the emperor would inevitably be wary of him, just like Li Chengguo in the past. Sooner or later, the court would strip him of his real power.

Or, transfer him away from Yuezhou.

It was impossible for the imperial court to allow Jiang Che to appear just after Li Chengguo was dealt with.

If Jiang Che wants to keep all the power he has, there is only one way he can go.

That is sanctification!
Only by becoming a Martial Saint can he force the imperial court to completely compromise with him, or even upgrade his title from Duke to King.

To overcome the tribulation and become a saint is an insurmountable chasm for all martial artists. Even someone as strong as Li Chengguo eventually fell under the tribulation.

However, for Jiang Che, all he needs is enough sacrifices to resolve all the difficulties.

And now, he has obtained the Evil-Repelling Thunder Heart Pearl and locked onto the Heavenly Soul Holy Lotus. He only needs to find the Dragon Essence and the Yin-Yang Dao Fruit to take a solid step forward.

The next step is to collect all the offerings as quickly as possible.
