Lord Changping, a prince of the State of Chu, and Han Fei, a prince of the State of Han.

In addition, there was Yan Dan, a prince of the Yan state.

What a bunch of down-on-their-luck and disillusioned people!

However, this group of people all had the same goal: to deal with the Qin state.

……

Yan Dan left the post station.

After Tian Guang obtained a way to save the Yan Kingdom, he still wanted to try it, even though it was a risky method.

Tian Guang watched Yan Dan leave, and then prepared to leave the tavern as well.

After leaving, he planned to go home.

However, on the road, a familiar figure blocked his way.

The wind and snow were swirling, the ground was covered in white, and snowflakes were falling in abundance. However, many snowflakes automatically avoided the figure when they approached it.

The wind and snow did not touch them.

This is an incredibly incredible thing.

But Tian Guang wasn't surprised, simply because the person in front of him was powerful enough to be a grandmaster-level expert.

"Unperturbed by heights, unaffected by water or fire," this is Zhuangzi's description of a great master.

"Mr. Tian Guang, it's been a long time."

Upon seeing Tian Guang, the visitor spoke softly and greeted him.

"Mr. Jiang, long time no see."

Tian Guang also exchanged a few pleasantries with Jiang Chuan.

"Shall we find a place to have a couple of drinks?" Jiang Chuan suggested.

Tian Guang hesitated for a moment, then nodded 0.5.

In the end, Tian Guang did not go home. Instead, he and Jiang Chuan found a small tavern and ordered some drinks.

This time, Tian Guang did not drink with Xinling, but instead drank bland wine with Jiang Chuan.

After all, he and Yan Dan had already drunk quite a bit of this strong liquor together at the post station earlier.

"Mr. Tian Guang appeared near Ji City and even met with the Crown Prince of Yan. Could it be that he wants to help him save Yan?" Jiang Chuan asked Tian Guang, holding his wine cup but not drinking.

Tian Guang's gaze sharpened. Instead of answering the question directly, he turned to Jiang Chuan and asked, "How did you find me, Mr. Jiang?"

Finding you wasn't difficult at all!

Jiang Chuan spoke calmly.

"I wonder, Mr. Tian Guang, have you ever heard of the Thousand-Mile Soul Locking Technique?"

Chapter 315 What is Desired

Tian Guang was naturally aware of the Thousand-Mile Soul Locking Technique at the Grandmaster level.

This means that once you reach the Grandmaster level, you can use your mental power to lock onto the aura of others, and even if they are far away, you can still sense their location.

However, even though Tian Guang was not a grandmaster, he was still very clear about it.

The so-called "soul-locking across a thousand miles" is actually not that mysterious.

Its distance is not as far as one might imagine.

Secondly, the time that spiritual power can remain on another person is also short, since it is something without any support and will dissipate on its own after a short period of time.

It was precisely because he knew these things that he was somewhat surprised.

Jiang Chuan had last met him several years ago.

If Jiang Chuan had left his spiritual power on me back then, it should have dissipated long ago after all this time.

This is completely unscientific!

In any case, Tian Guang didn't believe Jiang Chuan's explanation of locking his soul across a thousand miles; the other party must have found him through other means.

As for what method to use, Jiang Chuan was clearly unwilling to elaborate.

Tian Guang didn't want to ask any more questions.

And indeed, just as Tian Guang had predicted, Jiang Chuan was able to find Tian Guang not only through the Thousand Mile Soul Lock, but also through incantations, like the incantations of the Yin-Yang School. He had obtained many inheritances from Mount Shu and mastered extremely exquisite incantations.

In that battle years ago, he had secretly planted a curse on Tian Guang. This curse mark is hidden in Tian Guang's body and can absorb Tian Guang's internal energy to nourish itself, so it has always existed.

Furthermore, the curse seal contains Jiang Chuan's spiritual will.

Once he gets near Tian Guang, he can sense Tian Guang's whereabouts using the curse seal.

"Mr. Jiang, you have some impressive skills!"

Unable to figure out the reason and unwilling to ask further, Tian Guang could only offer a brief, polite greeting.

Jiang Chuan showed no smugness and said softly, "My methods are not particularly sophisticated, at least not as good as Mr. Tian Guang's."

"With just a few words, he persuaded Prince Dan of Yan to become a knife to assassinate the King of Qin, in order to help Lord Changping behind you preserve the State of Chu."

Upon hearing these words, Tian Guang was immediately horrified and extremely shocked.

However, he remained outwardly calm.

"Mr. Jiang, what exactly are you talking about?"

"What Lord Changping? What assassination attempt on the King of Qin?"

Jiang Chuan's gaze fell on Tian Guang's face. "Mr. Tian Guang, are you truly unaware, or are you feigning ignorance?"

"I must say, your feigned ignorance is truly a masterful performance!"

Tian Guang's expression darkened again.

Without a doubt, Jiang Chuan knows a lot of things. Most importantly, there are some things he has never told outsiders. Even the plot to incite Yan Dan to assassinate the Qin emperor was something that had just been completed.

However, Jiang Chuan knew the truth.

This is utterly unbelievable, utterly shocking.

Considering that Jiang Chuan was able to find him so quickly, Tian Guang couldn't help but wonder, "When Yan Dan and I were chatting at the inn earlier, Mr. Jiang was probably secretly watching, wasn't he?"

Given the opponent's Grandmaster level strength, it wouldn't be surprising if they were hiding in the shadows and undetectable.

Jiang Chuan smiled without saying a word, his gesture tantamount to acquiescence.

Having received an answer, Tian Guang then asked Jiang Chuan, "Mr. Jiang, what do you want to get from me? Or rather, what do you want to do?"

Tian Guang couldn't help but speculate about Jiang Chuan's motives, and his wariness towards Jiang Chuan reached its peak.

Jiang Chuan's strength is not bad, but that's not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Tian Guang doesn't know Jiang Chuan's background or what kind of person he is.

If they are on the side against Qin, that would be even better.

But what if the other party is from the Qin state, or someone close to Ying Zheng's faction?

This is not a good thing for him.

Lord Changping needed Yan Dan to send someone to assassinate Ying Zheng in order to save the State of Chu.

They had been preparing for this plan for a long time, and now Yan Dan had been persuaded. Only the final step remained: sending someone to Qin to assassinate him.

The results of it?

But Jiang Chuan found out about it.

If Jiang Chuan were to pass these matters on to King Ying Zheng of Qin, their long-planned scheme would be rendered futile.

"I don't want anything, or rather, I'm not going to do anything."

Jiang Chuan spoke calmly to Tian Guang in front of him.

He came to the State of Yan simply to watch a good show.

However, it is clear that such an explanation could not convince Tian Guang.

Tian Guang didn't believe that there were people in this world who were without desires or wants, especially since Jiang Chuan had taken the initiative to find him and talk to him about these things; he must have had another purpose.

"Mr. Jiang, stop playing coy. Tell me what you want. If I can satisfy your desires, can you promise me that you won't reveal these things?"

"I see. Then I'll have to think about it carefully and decide whether to grant your request."

Admittedly, Jiang Chuan didn't want anything; he came to Yan to watch a show. But since Tian Guang had said such things, it would be unreasonable for him not to take advantage of the situation.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chuan revealed his purpose: "As the leader of the Farmer's School of Chivalry, Mr. Tian Guang must be proficient in the Twenty-Four Earthly Branches of the Divine Weeds. How about you teach me the Twenty-Four Earthly Branches?"

"It's the complete Twenty-Four Earthly Branches, the kind that includes the changes between day and night!"

Tian Guang's gaze hardened once more.

……

Jicheng, Prince's Mansion.

After meeting with Tian Guang, Yan Dan returned here.
