Why do you always want to be my Taoist partner?

Jiang Li looked at her for a long time, without saying a word.

half an hour.

"I'm here to participate in this five-region competition. You... should be fighting on behalf of the East Region, right?"

Youlan didn't say anything, so Jiang Li could only continue to speak, "I know you hate me, and I also know that your cultivation has undergone tremendous changes in the past six months, but I remind you that it is not that easy to kill me. When the time comes, I will not show mercy."

"The matter of Zhongzhou has ended. With your cultivation level, you can go wherever you want in the future. I have fulfilled the promise I made to Youhuang. I have something to give you."

Jiang Li did not hesitate and took out the soul-summoning flag that he had always carried with him in the storage space.

The remnant soul of Youhuang is inside. When he fought against Jiang Xing that day, he did not need this remnant soul to fight for him. In fact, it did not require much power. But it was just a remnant soul. At most, it could talk to Youlan for a while. In less than half an hour, this remnant soul would dissipate between heaven and earth, and there would be no possibility of resurrection.

Jiang Li did not walk up to Youlan, but used his spiritual energy to send the soul-summoning flag far away. He actually had nothing to say. The hatred of killing his father was irreconcilable. No matter whether Youlan was good or evil, it was reasonable for her to want to kill him. He gave the soul-summoning flag to Youlan not to please her. This was his plan from the beginning, and it was just to fulfill Youlan's small wish.

Jiang Li just thought of the day when Youlan knelt in front of him and begged him not to kill his father. He felt inexplicably melancholy when he thought of it. He and Youlan had nothing to say to each other. After handing over the soul-calling flag, he turned around and left the bathing pool.

Youlan did not attack him, but when she opened her eyes, the aura of her cultivation was released without any concealment.

The first level of holiness.

..........................................

When Jiang Li returned to Wen Liqing, Wen Liqing had already put on the clothes Jiang Li gave him.

Another maid skirt again!

This was made by Jiang Li when he was bored. He originally planned to give it to Mu Xuezhi, but he never found the opportunity. However, Wen Liqing and Mu Xuezhi are not much different in figure, so the clothes should be suitable for them. However, Jiang Li never thought that Wen Liqing would fill the collar of the skirt to the brim. She was a little more exaggerated than Mu Xuezhi. It would not be an exaggeration to call her a little cow.

This time Jiang Li made a long skirt, with the hem falling all the way to the ankles. Wen Liqing's ankles were wrapped in white silk. Those were white silk garters, which were hidden by the hem of the skirt and could not be seen. When Jiang Xiaoli was making it, he was looking forward to the scene of Mu Xuezhi wearing this dress, and he was almost drooling. Now that Wen Liqing was wearing it, it seemed to look good. He whispered, "Lift up the hem of the skirt and have a look?"

Wen Liqing's expression was a little complicated, but she still reached out her hand obediently and lifted the hem of her skirt a little bit, all the way to her thighs. Jiang Li looked at her snow-white long legs tightly wrapped in white silk, and was satisfied. He commented, "You look good in it."

But Wen Liqing insisted, "Why did you leave me alone?"

"I'm not abandoning you." Jiang Li walked to her side, took her hand, and looked into her eyes. "I thought about it seriously, and I think I should give myself a hypocritical excuse. Now we are still half a Taoist couple. Dual cultivation is a matter for the future. Taoist couples are not only about dual cultivation, but also have to like each other. I believe you like me, but I don't like you that much. After all, our likes are different. If you like me because I beat your sword that day, but you don't know what kind of person I am. Sometimes I am childish and boring, and I am a playboy. There are many Taoist couples. If you don't mind these, it won't be too late for us to become Taoist couples then."

The grievance in Wen Liqing's eyes gradually melted away, and he looked very well-behaved.

Jiang Li gently pinched her face and asked, "Do you want me to practice sword skills with you? I have some new understanding and insights about your sword skills."

Wen Liqing's eyes suddenly brightened.

....................................

Jiang Lizhen had a new understanding of Wen Liqing's sword skills.

He has been practicing sword skills hard for the past month. He has mastered all the sword skills of the Dark Moon Immortal and integrated them with his original sword skills. Jiang Li even feels that he can now beat three of him a month ago. This is one of the reasons why he can tell Youlan that swords have no eyes and that he will have a serious fight with her when the time comes.

And Aotian Sword Emperor's Heaven-Slaying Art has also been mastered by him during this period of time. Now he has become a super-stitched monster, with not only a lot of stitched blood and physique on his body, but also his swordsmanship is all stitched together perfectly.

In fact, to this day, Jiang Li still feels that his sword moves actually have no "Tao".

His sword moves have always been very strange. He comprehends them easily and naturally. If the truth is explained, anyone can comprehend it in this direction, but he is the only one who has comprehended it. This is not because his sword moves are powerful, but because his comprehension seems a little strange. After all, he learned the sword moves of others after just a few glances. It was only a few days ago that Jiang Li truly understood the real reason why he could achieve this level.

Because he is in line with the rules of heaven.

The sword power of the Dark Moon Immortal was to first practice the talisman formations to the peak, and the last step was to sense the rules of heaven and earth and integrate them into one's body. Jiang Li spent most of his time completing the previous steps, and the Dark Moon Immortal originally looked at him with a sneer, waiting for him to suffer in the last step, but he never thought that as soon as this stage began... Jiang Li had already achieved the level of the Dark Moon Immortal in the past.

It took five seconds in total.

It was as if he was the legendary chosen one, the son of the plane, and the rules of heaven were meaningless to him. Jiang Li now understood why he had felt nothing every time he had overcome a minor calamity before. When the Dark Moon Immortal Lord saw this scene, he was stunned for a long time, muttering "impossible, impossible" to himself, as if he was possessed.

Wen Liqing lost this sword fight, completely, but she was not depressed at all. Instead, she came close to Jiang Li and said, "You are amazing."

While she was saying how amazing Jiang Li was, she hugged Jiang Li tightly. Jiang Li also hugged her gently, but his hand couldn't help but gently patted her snow-white buttocks.

"Why hit me?" Wen Liqing muttered softly.

"I just suddenly wanted to fight."

Jiang Li answered confidently. Wen Liqing hugged him tightly, and her soft chest pressed against his. He heard Wen Liqing mutter, "You bullied me like this last time."

"Last time they used a whip, it's different."

"Then... do you still want to bully me with a whip?" Wen Liqing leaned close to Jiang Li's ear. Jiang Li immediately made a decisive move and hit Wen Liqing hard again, "Hehe, you tricked me again."

"How could that be?" Wen Liqing looked at Jiang Li innocently and finally loosened her arms around him. She was about to say something when the sound of a musical instrument came into their ears. However, Wen Liqing suddenly became a little nervous. Her previous innocence and well-behavedness were all restrained, as if she had turned back into the cold and arrogant Aotian Sword Emperor in an instant.

"Oh no, Lingyin is playing the piano again."

Chapter 342: Chapter Lingyin's Jade Song

Jiang Li was about to ask why the piano broke down after being played, but the words stopped at his lips.

Because the sound of the piano is... very strange.

It’s not that the piano playing is so bad, on the contrary, it is quite good. It’s just that the emotion conveyed by the piano sound... is very empty. No, the word empty is not accurate. It should be... desolate, lonely, painful, manic, angry, and Jiang Li even felt a sense of inexplicable emptiness.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be so many emotions in just a piece of piano music, but Jiang Li felt it because he is also a master of music. Haha, he has no talent at all, just pure proficiency.

Jiang Li soon saw that the grass and trees around him began to wither under the influence of the piano music. Jiang Li was a little surprised. He thought that the piano music did not sound so mysterious, but in fact it had penetrated into the rules of heaven and earth?

"I have to go and take a look." Wen Liqing frowned slightly.

"Who is this person playing the piano?"

"Fairy Lingyin." Wen Liqing answered, "She lives with her disciples in the extreme south region, and she plays the piano for two hours every day. The extreme south region is uninhabited, so her playing the piano is nothing special, but now in the Sword Sect, her piano sound will break the hearts of many disciples. Several decades ago, she played the piano every day in the Sword Sect during the Five Regions Competition. At that time, I was in seclusion on the way to heaven, and I didn't feel anything. After I came out of seclusion, I learned that many disciples of the Sword Sect at that time had their hearts broken by her piano sound, and the cultivation of the entire disciples of the Sword Sect stagnated for a long time."

Jiang Li understood now, and asked curiously, "Can't we make a soundproof formation for her?"

"Her piano music contains the laws of heaven and earth, and it cannot be blocked by a simple soundproofing formation. In addition, she rarely appears in public except for the Five Territory Competition. This seemingly proud woman has been playing the piano alone for years without anyone paying attention to her. It is a rare opportunity for many people to listen to her playing the piano, and she will not miss it."

After hearing what Wen Liqing said, Jiang Li suddenly knew what kind of person the Fairy Lingyin was. With curiosity in his heart, he followed Wen Liqing on his sword and went to the source of the piano sound, which was also the Lingjian Mountain where the Sword Sect entertained guests. In the small courtyard of Lingjian Mountain, a group of Sword Sect elders were looking at the woman playing the piano. They wanted to speak but couldn't. They were the people closest to the piano sound, and they all knew that disturbing Fairy Lingyin playing the piano was disrespectful. This woman was moody and could be described as a piano fanatic, and her obsession with swords was the same level as Wen Liqing's.

When they saw Aotian Sword Emperor coming on his sword, all the elders breathed a sigh of relief. However, they were also surprised to find that there was a young man on Aotian Sword Emperor's sword. This made the elders even more uneasy. What was the relationship between Aotian Sword Emperor and this young cultivator from Zhongzhou?

"You guys step back first." Wen Liqing's voice was indifferent.

Jiang Li glanced at Wen Liqing's profile. The speed at which a woman's expression changes is really faster than turning the pages of a book. Now Wen Liqing really looks a bit like the leader of the Sword Sect. An incense stick of time ago, she was still a big-breasted idiot who could only blink innocently.

Hehe, the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie.

Jiang Li's gaze shifted to the two people in front of him. After all, he had just heard from Ye Guixu that Fairy Lingyin was ranked second in the Canglan Fairy Record, second only to Immortal Venerable Dark Moon. Immortal Venerable Dark Moon... not to mention her cultivation, her appearance was indeed the most beautiful woman Jiang Li had ever seen, and he could frankly admit it. Hey, but he had to see her every day and get beaten up, so he had long been tired of it. As for Lingyin...

The woman in front of him was wearing a lavender skirt, like a bunch of wisteria flowers, with a slender figure, calm eyes, and her delicate jade fingers flying on the strings of the piano. Behind her stood a woman who was also wearing a purple skirt, but that woman looked much younger, about eighteen or nineteen years old. She was listening to her piano quietly, as if she was intoxicated.

It's quite nice to watch, but playing the piano is really painful.

Jiang Li leaned close to Wen Liqing's ear and whispered, "What is her cultivation level?"

"The fourth level of the Holy Saint."

After Jiang Li and Wen Liqing whispered to each other, Wen Liqing said calmly, "Senior Lingyin."

Senior? At Wen Liqing's age, he still has to call Lingyin senior? How old is Lingyin?

Jiang Li was looking at Lingyin's face seriously, silently scoring her in his heart. Well, he was now the scoring guy. He had to admit that Lingyin was really pretty. She was a cold and fairy-like woman. Her figure was not plump, but rather thin. She clearly had a high level of cultivation, but her face was pale and she looked a little sick.

Jiang Li knew a bit of medical skills, and after a quick look, he concluded that the woman didn't have any hidden injuries and her life span was normal. Her pale complexion was probably related to the piano she played. Jiang Li thought about it and it was indeed the case that she looked like this since she played such sweet little tunes all day long.

Wen Liqing had already opened his mouth and respectfully called Lingyin "Senior". However, although Lingyin's eyes were clearly open, they were only looking at the strings of the zither. She did not even look at Wen Liqing, completely ignoring him.

"Senior Lingyin." Wen Liqing called again.

Lingyin still did not change at all, and the disciple behind her used her spiritual sense to transmit a message to the two of them, "My master does not want to be disturbed when he is playing the piano."

Jiang Li glanced at Wen Liqing, gently scratched her palm, and then asked curiously, "Is she staring at the strings because she's afraid of playing it wrong?"

When he asked this particularly innocent question, the atmosphere seemed a little awkward. Wen Liqing was about to respond to Jiang Li, "Of course not," but when she saw the smile in Jiang Li's eyes, she seemed to understand.

"I don't know either... maybe?" Wen Liqing muttered softly.

"Didn't you say before that she played the piano beautifully?"

"It's my first time listening to it too. People say her piano playing is the best in the world."

"Why does it sound like a funeral to me..." Jiang Li muttered softly.

"Don't talk nonsense, she is the Fairy Lingyin! Maybe... she is just in a bad mood recently, which caused some changes in her music."

“But it sounds really bad…”

As soon as Jiang Li finished speaking, Ling Yin did not make any move. Instead, the woman behind Ling Yin was already glaring at Jiang Li. She sent a voice message to Jiang Li's consciousness, "What are you talking about?"

"Ah? Didn't you hear what I said?" Jiang Li did not use his spiritual sense to transmit a message to her, but asked back innocently.

"Master's Silence is a world-famous music score. My master is the only one in the world who can play it. How did you come up with this..."

Jiang Li didn't even give her a chance to finish, his eyes looked even more innocent at the moment, "I don't know how to play the piano, I just go to brothels occasionally to listen to some songs. The music played by the girls in brothels is at least cheerful, much better than her mournful tune."

"presumptuous!"

"How can it be considered impertinence to tell the truth?" Jiang Li scratched his head.

If it were any other time, I would be afraid of you. But now my Aunt Zhu is about to arrive, the Sword Emperor is right beside me, baby Xue Zhi has also reached the second level of the Supreme Saint, and I also have a cheap mother-in-law, Su Jiuli. Are you going to hit me?

"If you don't understand music, don't talk nonsense here!"

"Isn't music created for people to listen to? Her playing makes me feel annoyed, do you still want me to praise her for playing well? Isn't this unreasonable?"

"Master's Ji Jue Yao has comprehended the rules of heaven and earth, and is a cry for the suffering of all living beings. If someone is predestined, they can sense Master's good intentions from the music, and it can temper their souls..."

Jiang Li interrupted her again, "Can you please speak in a nice way according to your conscience?"

He had just said these two sentences when the woman behind Lingyin was already red-faced with anger, gritting her teeth and saying, "Master's music is naturally the best in the world. If you don't understand music, then don't talk nonsense here. Of course, an idiot who only knows how to practice swordsmanship doesn't understand."

"Then I'm curious." Jiang Li's eyes were as innocent as they could be. "So according to you, music can only be understood by people who understand it?"

"That's natural!"

"Then do you think anyone in the Sword Sect can understand it?"

"of course not!"

"Then what is she playing here?" Jiang Li blinked, like a curious baby, "No one can understand who she is playing for?"

The woman sitting opposite Jiang Li was at a loss for words for a moment.

After half an incense stick of time, the woman opposite Jiang Li blushed and said, "Master, of course, played it for me!"

"Oh...I see." Jiang Li suddenly smiled.

"What are you laughing at?" The woman opposite looked at his smile and couldn't help gritting her teeth.

Jiang Li still looked at her innocently, "Since you are playing it for you, why do you play such a sad song? Is it because your master thinks it is a very sad thing to have you as his disciple?"

"You don't understand! Master wanted to use Ji Jue Yao to hone my musical skills."

"If I had an apprentice, I would definitely want to give her candy every day. I would definitely beat her up and torture her for no reason, and call it training."

"I've already told you, an outsider, don't understand anything!"

"You just said that you did it to hone your musical skills, so it's not nice to hear you admit it?" Jiang Li smiled gently at her, "My fellow Taoist, don't be impatient. I'm not very good at pretending to be confused, and I speak quite directly. If I have offended you before, I apologize."

The woman sitting opposite Jiang Li was so angry that she was about to cry.

"I think it's really because I don't understand your way of music. It's just that to an ordinary person like me, the sound of the piano is painful, so it's naturally not pleasant to listen to. I hope you can understand that in my understanding, no one needs pain to sharpen themselves. It is wrong to rely on painful torture to move forward."

"I wonder how long this fellow Taoist has been studying with your master? Has your master ever taught you some cheerful songs?"

"Nature taught me."

"How about...play a piece for me?"

"Wait until my master finishes playing."

"It's okay. I can hear you clearly even if you play it now."

"I can play a piece of music for you."

The purple-skirted woman took a jade flute from her waist, put it to her lips, hesitated for a moment, and then played a short piece of cheerful music. This piece of music really had the magic to make people inexplicably happy, but compared to Lingyin's jade-like little song, its ability to infect emotions was still far behind. However, Jiang Li's eyes were full of admiration at this moment, "This is a good song."

The woman opposite Jiang Li put down her jade flute and pinched the hem of her skirt with her hands. For some reason, she always felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.
