The sect asked me to marry, and I cultivated to the pinnacle of martial arts!

Chapter 366 My sister can… Jiang Qingge’s change of heart, returning to the depths of the Black Forest Swamp
Immediately, Jiang Qingge remembered what she had sensed earlier.

She really wants to improve her skills!

She had sensed the Black Forest Swamp earlier... and wanted to go check it out.

And most importantly, what happened to the images in the memory stone...?

Could it be my sister and him outside Red Maple City?
Previously, Jiang Qingge had kept this matter to herself because she was worried about Lu Ye's safety.

Seeing Lu Ye again now, I couldn't help but think of him.

Upon hearing Jiang Qingge's words, Lu Ye walked into the courtyard, nodded, and said, "What is it? Speak."

"I had a strange feeling before, like there was something in that Black Forest Swamp that was attracting me."

Jiang Qingge thought for a moment and said softly, "Could you...could you come with me to the Black Forest Swamp?"

Black Forest Swamp?

Hearing the place name again, Lu Ye felt a sense of familiarity. After thinking for a moment, he remembered that it was the place where he first encountered the evil spirits of the night.

At that time, he had only recently been promoted to the Martial Arts Grandmaster level.

Many aspects of the Black Forest Swamp were not actually fully understood by myself.

However, Lu Ye still vividly remembered the scene at the deepest part of the swamp, where there seemed to be a stone sculpture that looked extremely similar to Jiang Qingge!
It was because of that stone sculpture that they were able to recognize Jiang Qingge's identity from her previous life.

“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Lu Ye nodded. He also wanted to see how Jiang Qingge would react if she saw the stone platform.

Of course, there is an array outside the stone platform, and if the timing is not right, you may not be able to see it.

"Thank you, Lu Ye." Upon hearing this, Jiang Qingge immediately expressed her gratitude.

"See if there's anything else we need to prepare? Once everything is ready, let's set off," Lu Ye said.

“There seems to be miasma in some places there. I brought two antidote pills… Should I prepare some for you?” After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qingge asked.

"No need, just prepare it for yourself."

Hearing Lu Ye say this, Jiang Qingge didn't ask any more questions. She had witnessed Lu Ye's amazing abilities before, and since he said he didn't need it, he probably really didn't.

A moment later, Jiang Qingge, having finished packing, followed Lu Ye to the Black Forest Swamp.

The Black Forest Swamp wasn't exactly close to Cloudleaf City, and the two of them weren't traveling very fast, so it took them a full half day to reach the outer edge of the swamp.

"If I'm not mistaken, it would be more appropriate to wait until tonight," Lu Ye said, thinking of Jiang Qingge's condition.

It was still afternoon, nearing evening. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qingge said, "Do you have time? We could go take a look at the Jiang family's mine."

"can."

So the two headed toward the mine located on the outskirts of the swamp.

On the way, Jiang Qingge recalled the past, remembering the night Lu Ye came to her rescue from hundreds of miles away, and sighed slightly.

At the same time, the faint resentment I had towards my younger sister vanished without a trace.

Come to think of it, it seems that my younger sister is the most sincere towards this person.

It has been that way from the very beginning.

So even though he and his sister had a good relationship, he didn't really have anything to say, since she was the one who caused this outcome in the first place.

If he were to come out now and criticize his sister for getting too close to him, what would he become?

However, while I can pretend not to see my sister's situation, I can't do that with other people...

It makes sense that the younger sister is close to her brother-in-law, but if other people were allowed to get close easily... the Jiang family wouldn't have room for them!

After thinking it through, Jiang Qingge smiled slightly and brought up the matter. "I saw in the news on the memory stone that you and your sister were playing together outside Red Maple City?"

Lu Ye had anticipated this.

After all, the image stone is so widely known, Jiang Qingge will definitely see it.

Therefore, Lu Ye nodded calmly and said, "I happened to be passing by Wuxiang Mountain and met Lingyue at the foot of the mountain, so I took her for a walk around."

I thought Jiang Qingge would ask some questions, after all, her brother-in-law and sister-in-law went on a trip together while her sister was not around, any decent person would definitely ask about the situation.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Qingge simply nodded gently and said, "Yes, Red Maple City is only a hundred miles away from Wuxiang Mountain. Lingyue is alone on the mountain all year round. Your chance encounter with her can be considered as helping her relieve her boredom."

Lu Ye: “?”

Looking at Jiang Qingge, who spoke of the matter so casually, Lu Ye sensed that something was amiss.

The current Jiang Qingge gives Lu Ye the feeling that she is subtly accepting her as a younger sister...

Does this woman... know something about something?

A moment later, the two arrived at the Jiang family's mine located on the outskirts of the Black Forest Swamp.

"Young Miss, Young Master... what brings you here?"

The Jiang family members guarding the mine were quite surprised to see the two and immediately invited them into their tent.

"Has there been any problem at the mine recently?" Jiang Qingge asked as she entered the tent.

When discussing serious matters, a seriousness that had accumulated over the years would emerge from Jiang Qingge's demeanor.

The mine manager quickly shook his head and said, "Since the last incident, the number of evil spirits on the periphery has decreased significantly, and the ones that do appear are not very strong. The mine's security forces are fully capable of handling them."

"That's good."

Next, Jiang Qingge took a brief tour of the mine.

After finding nothing amiss, they took advantage of the darkness to prepare to leave the mine and head deeper into the swamp.

"Ah, Miss, you're going into the swamp?! It's best not to go there, it's too dangerous at night!" Upon hearing Jiang Qingge's words, the mine guard was immediately startled.

At night, the Black Forest Swamp is a place most people avoid like the plague, so why would the young lady and her companion choose to venture there?!

The deputy next to him glanced at the eldest son-in-law, who hadn't said a word, and then tugged at the captain.

After Jiang Qingge and the other person left, the deputy whispered.

"Captain, don't you recognize the eldest son-in-law?"

"What are you talking about? Of course I know the son-in-law," the captain said, somewhat puzzled.

"Don't you know the news that's been circulating all over our Northern Territory lately? If it's true, let alone a small Black Forest Swamp, I reckon even the Black Tide Forbidden Land could be freely entered and exited by our son-in-law!" As the deputy spoke, a look of reverence appeared on his face.

The captain, who clearly hadn't been paying much attention to outside news, looked completely bewildered upon hearing this.

The second-in-command then pulled out a recording stone and said mysteriously, "Then I'll show you something good, Captain..."

...

Deep in the Black Forest Swamp.

Night fell, and the depths of the swamp were silent.

Occasionally, two unknown animal cries would echo through the air, adding to the chilling atmosphere.

"Is the place where you sensed it over there?" Lu Ye pointed to the location of the stone sculpture.
