"Died at the hands of the five great immortal sects."

173-A Different Future

Hearing Jiang Ning's words.

Lin Wanqing was extremely surprised and couldn't help but sit next to Jiang Ning, leaning on him and said:

“Then… why did Captain Cao join the Methodist Church?

Even ordinary people know that the hatred for murdering one's wife is irreconcilable.

What's more, it's someone like Captain Cao?"

Jiang Ning casually put his arm around Lin Wanqing's slender waist, played with her soft little hands, and sighed:

"He doesn't know it yet."

Lin Wanqing: “…”

After a moment of silence, Lin Wanqing took a breath, and suddenly she seemed to be amused by Jiang Ning again.

After all, she didn't know whether Cao Wukui really had a Taoist partner.

Even what Jiang Ning said was true.

But Cao Wukui himself didn't know that his Taoist partner was killed by the five major immortal sects.

Jiang Ning and Cao Wukui only met once.

How could he possibly know this?

The more Lin Wanqing thought about it, the more she felt that Jiang Ning was teasing her on purpose, and she couldn't help but say sarcastically:

"Fellow Daoist Jiang is really amazing.

Captain Cao didn't say anything, but you already know everything?

Oh, Brother Jiang is indeed a great man who has awakened his wisdom from his previous life!"

Jiang Ning narrowed his eyes and smiled, wrapping his arms around Lin Wanqing's waist, his fingers suddenly glowed with a stronger pink light than before.

For a moment, a slightly panicked moan sounded in the air.

……

After a while of beautiful scenery.

Lin Wanqing panted and fell limply into Jiang Ning's arms, completely too exhausted to get up.

Jiang Ning was stroking her back gently, fiddling with her long hair, and slowly telling the story.

"Four hundred and fifty years ago, at the foot of Cangwu Mountain in the Eastern Continent, there was a small mountain village with no more than a hundred people."

"This village is named after the mountain, and the locals call it Cangwu Village."

"There is a pair of childhood sweethearts in the village who grew up together and have a very good relationship."

"Then one night, two cultivators who had a grudge against each other suddenly came and fought each other in the sky above Cangwu Village."

"These two immortal cultivators are both at the Jindan stage, and they don't care about the lives of the mortals in the village at all."

"The aftermath of the battle shook the villagers to death in just a split second."

"The two immortal cultivators also perished together. The entire Cangwu Village was reduced to ruins, with corpses everywhere."

"Only two mischievous children who sneaked out to play that night survived..."

After hearing this, Lin Wanqing understood a little.

Jiang Ning's story seems to be about the past of Captain Cao and his Taoist partner.

She looked at Jiang Ning, with deep curiosity in her beautiful eyes, but she didn't ask any more questions.

She just leaned on Jiang Ning's arms and said cooperatively:

"Those two kids are really lucky."

Jiang Ning smiled, put his hands into Lin Wanqing's soft long hair, and gently played with her hair.

"Everyone who embarks on the path of cultivating immortals will have his own tribulations."

Lin Wanqing was stunned when she heard this, and a look of reminiscence appeared in her beautiful eyes.

After all, her parents and family died at the hands of criminals.

She was the only one who survived, and eventually became an immortal cultivator, killing her entire family and her enemies with blood.

Lin Wanqing looked gloomy as she listened silently to Jiang Ning's story about the two children who survived the disaster.

"When the two children came back, they found that all the villagers had died and they cried loudly."

“But after crying, I have to continue living with fear and sadness.”

"Fortunately, we were able to obtain the scattered elixirs and techniques from the two immortal cultivators."

"Fortunately, they all have talent for cultivation, and they are pretty good."

"By accident, the two children embarked on the path of cultivating immortals..."

When Jiang Ning talked about Cao Wukui's past, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Just like when he traveled to this world of immortal cultivation in his previous life, he was also alone.

It seems that those cultivators who go against the will of heaven will always be punished by heaven.

"Many years later, the two men, who had achieved great success in their cultivation, traveled around the country doing justice and dealing with injustice."

"Of course they will be hunted down, but they will never give up for the ideals in their hearts."

"Until one day, the five major immortal sects sent people to encircle and suppress them, and the two were forced to flee separately."

At this point, Jiang Ning knew that Lin Wanqing had already heard that this was the story of Cao Wukui and his Taoist companion.

So, he no longer concealed the protagonist of the story and said directly:

"Later, there was an elder in the Methodist sect who still had a conscience. He was impressed by Cao Wukui's character and wanted to take him as his apprentice."

"Cao Wukui didn't want to, so the old man just followed him, and he followed him for decades."

"Finally, after many dangers, the two of them became master and disciple, and Cao Wukui followed his master back to the Xundao Sect."

"But over the years, Cao Wukui has never been able to find his Taoist partner."

"He never looked for a Taoist partner again, hoping that he could find her one day."

"It's a pity that he will never be found..."

"Because Cao Wukui's Taoist partner died ten years ago."

Hearing this, Lin Wanqing couldn't help but raise her head from Jiang Ning's arms, her face full of pity.

"Jiang Ning, how did you know?"

Jiang Ning did not explain anything, but just asked:

"What do you say?"

Lin Wanqing fell silent after hearing this.

Because she seemed to remember that Jiang Ning had some method of predicting the future.

If Jiang Ning had not lied to her that night, he would have truly awakened to his wisdom from his past life.

Then, it seems not impossible to master some incredible methods of deduction in this life.

"In fact, the five major immortal sects have never given up on hunting down Taoist couple Cao Wukui who repeatedly destroyed the longevity-absorbing formation."

Jiang Ning looked into Lin Wanqing's eyes and said slowly:

“Finally, Cao Wukui’s Taoist companion had a premonition of death and returned to the foot of Cangwu Mountain, where he also died.

However, people from the five major immortal sects cut his body into several pieces and left the corpse in the wilderness to vent their anger.

If nothing unexpected happens...Cao Wukui will never know about this."

Lin Wanqing understood the implication of Jiang Ning's words and was shocked.

"Jiang Ning, you mean..."

"Well, I'm going to go find him. It's just in time to repay him for the month's shelter."

"But...what if your deduction is wrong?"

Jiang Ning stood up, touched Lin Wanqing's head, and said with a smile:

“The future may be different from what I imagined.

But even I cannot change what is in the past.

I hope to see a different future, so I will naturally do it.”

Lin Wanqing stood up with a worried look on her face, held Jiang Ning's hand, and said:

"Do you need me to go with you?"

"Need not."

Jiang Ning shook his head and smiled: "Only I can say this kind of thing."

……

In the afternoon.

At the foot of Qinyuan Mountain, the Law Enforcement Hall.

Cao Wukui was sitting cross-legged in the lounge of the hall, meditating quietly with his eyes slightly closed.

But soon, he opened his eyes again, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

Now, Cao Wukui is only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage.

Ever since his master passed away fifty years ago, his situation within the Methodist church has become increasingly difficult.

In the past, there was a master to protect the sect.

Even though he and his brothers and sisters were incompatible with Methodism.

Cao Wukui was not worried that his cultivation resources would be withheld.

But after the Master passed away, the situation changed immediately.

Just the fact that he withheld the cultivation resources from previous years made his cultivation progress extremely slow.

As a result, even with his qualifications, he still couldn't break the pill into an infant.

Cao Wukui knew that there were a large number of people in the sect who disliked him and were deliberately targeting him.

Not only was it directed at him, but also his brothers and sisters under his command, all of whom had their cultivation resources withheld.

For cultivators, the importance of cultivation resources is self-evident.

Spiritual veins that can achieve twice the result with half the effort, elixirs that can improve cultivation, and spiritual medicines that can strengthen the foundation...

These are things that cultivators must prepare after their cultivation reaches a certain level.

The law enforcement team has no shortage of spiritual veins suitable for cultivation.

After all, Canglan Immortal City is built on a fifth-grade top-grade spiritual vein.

The Law Enforcement Hall has the authority over the fourth-grade lower-grade spiritual veins.

It is completely sufficient to support the cultivation in the Nascent Soul stage.

But all other resources are mostly withheld by the group of people who pay the annual salaries.

This made Cao Wukui extremely angry, but he was helpless.

However, this is not a one-time thing.

Cao Wukui would not have difficulty concentrating on his cultivation because of these things.

But I don’t know what happened today.

Cao Wukui has been feeling uneasy, always feeling that something big will happen soon.

I just don't know if they are targeting the Law Enforcement Hall or him...
