Chapter 1326 - Greenjade Mountains Ore Veins

So the two Sky Palace disciples are here as well? Gujian Qingshuang asked. Ye Dongliu, Granny Mu Hua and Ye Buzhiqiu were behind him with expressions that were too obviously calm.

Yes, Tianming needs some ore veins to cultivate, so he came to find me. He wanted me to help him speak to the chief instructor. Jiang Qingliu smiled. Then he directed a doubtful look toward them. Whatre you four here for? Is something the matter?

The matter of ore was a painful topic for Gujian Qingshuang, so he avoided it. With a solemn look, he said, Qingliu, a grade-eight divine herb has appeared near Elderpond City. However, the group of warG.o.deans, Supracloud Sanctuary, and the Blueblood Starocean have all discovered its location. The sun emperors youngest son, Li Haochen, is teaming up with them as well.

Daoyi ran into them. Their intention was clearly to s.n.a.t.c.h away our divine herb. Weve discussed it with our friends from the Empyrean Sword Sect and Group of Celestial Maiden Halls. Well defend our treasure and give the invaders heavy injuries.

Gujian Qingshuang continued, Weve decided to have Granny Mu Hua stay behind and guard the sect. The Sixth Sword Branch will go out to battle, and we may need the Azuresoul Tower. I heard you were in secluded cultivation, but the glory and survival of the sect is most important. Were setting off now, so follow along!

Gujian Qingshuangs stern tone made it clear this was an order, not a request. His meaning was obvious when he mentioned the Azuresoul Tower. Jiang Qingliu may not have been strong, but the special properties of the tower were irreplaceable. As one of the six Swordbearers, there was no reason Jiang Qingliu could give to escape it. Otherwise, he could even be deemed guilty.

Gujian Qingshuang had already overcome his internal struggle and made the most cold-blooded decision. Fortunately, Tianming hadnt revealed he could eavesdrop. This man wouldnt be trustworthy even if the Empyrean Sword Sect wasnt around.

Jiang Qingliu frowned and immediately raged, Outrageous! This is our land! Its not even in disputed territory, and its quite close to us here! If they even dare to s.n.a.t.c.h that, arent they saying that the whole Azurecloud Divine Tree is theirs?

Correct, this is the one time we cant back down! Ye Dongliu added.

Lets stop here. Pack up, were leaving, Gujian Qingshuang said.

Qingliu will naturally not refuse and shall throw himself into h.e.l.l or high water for the sect. Let me go prepare, Jiang Qingliu said.

Tianming froze when he heard that. Was Jiang Qingliu so eager to die? Gujian Qingshuang and the rest, on the other hand, sighed in relief and revealed satisfied smiles.

Oh, wait! Jiang Qingliu had just taken two steps when he turned around. Chief instructor, when will the divine herb ripen?

Two months or so. Gujian Qingshuang didnt overthink it before replying.

Two months? So theres still time. Jiang Qingliu thought for a moment, then said, You all go first, chief instructor. Ill set off in one month. I wont miss the battle.

You have something on? Gujian Qingshuang frowned.

Yes! Ive been stuck at my current level for more than eighty years now. I used to think itd be my lifes limit. However, Ive recently had some inspiration and felt my divine will improving. I feel like if you give me a month, Ill be able to kill more enemies when the time comes.

You can break through in a month? All four of them were stunned.

Yes, but Ill need some help from the Azuresky Bridge, Jiang Qingliu said.

Fine! The four exchanged a look.

Honestly, Ye Dongliu and Granny Mu Hua were so old that their cultivation had begun wasting away. Breakthroughs were something they had long forgotten. Gujian Qingshuang had reached his peak too long ago as well, leaving only Ye Buzhiqiu any hope for growth.

For people of their tier, breakthroughs were a fantasy. Once accomplished, their status would greatly change. Hence, they were doubtful of Jiang Qinglius confidence. Disdain even creeped into their hearts. To them, Jiang Qingliu had grown full of himself after getting two Sky Palace disciples.

Dont worry while youre trying to break through. If you fail, dont waste time here. We need the Azuresoul Tower, Gujian Qingshuang said.

Dont worry, one month will be enough. Jiang Qingliu pounded his chest confidently.

Well leave first then. Gujian Qingshuang gave his group a look.

After they turned away, their expressions grew much colder.

Break through? They were all at their lifes peak. If a single month would be enough to surpa.s.s it, then others were just embarra.s.sing themselves. It seemed more and more like a figment of Jiang Qinglius imagination. However, they couldnt force things when he had said that. The divine herb really hadnt ripened yet, after all.

Wait. Jiang Qingliu spoke up as they were leaving.

What?

Can you stretch the rules a little for Tianmings ore veins? Maybe the Greenjade Mountains ore veins? Its mostly abandoned and not much of value is left inside, I believe.

Fine. bring him there. If you need to go outside, make sure to protect the Sky Palace disciples.

Many thanks, chief instructor! Tianming hurriedly said.

No need to be polite. If our foundations werent so shallow, we wouldve answered any request of you Sky Palace disciples. I hope you can understand, Gujian Qingshuang said.

I do, I do.

Thus, the four flew away. Three left the sect, while Granny Mu Hua returned to her Third Sword Branch to protect the sect.

Urgh. They want master to accompany you just for an ore vein. They want to kill him. Yu Ziqian spat.

Every word that comes out of their mouths is one that cant be trusted. Tianming rolled his eyes.

Master, dont you have any better tricks? If you could break through, then pigs can fly. Yu Ziqian was anxious.

What choice did I have? I can only try buying time, Jiang Qingliu said.

Then what happens in a month?

Well see. Jiang Qingliu turned to Tianming. Find someone to bring you to the ore vein, Im going into secluded meditation.

Okay. The Group of Celestial Maiden Halls Auntie Niu is still here. Tianming smiled.
