Chapter 1428: Knowing His Background

Editor: Atlas Studios

Elder Qiu pulled Jiang Guanchao up.

Jiang Guanchao’s first reaction was not to talk to Elder Qiu, but to look at the mountain opposite.

In the end, the group of Japanese assassins escaped.

Jiang Guanchao’s gaze was so cold that it was a little scary.

“This is Great Zhou’s territory. They can’t escape. What happened to your hand?”

Elder Qiu noticed his bandaged right hand.

“Nothing.”

Jiang Guanchao said calmly.

Elder Qiu looked at Jiang Guanchao, who had a cold expression and unfamiliar eyes. He opened his mouth. “Actually, I…”

Jiang Guanchao left without waiting for him to finish.

The bean-sized raindrops smashed down, making a dense rustling sound on the rocks and trees.

Elder Qiu quickly followed him. As he walked, he took off his robe to cover his injured hand.

“Wait! You can’t get wet when you’re injured!”

Jiang Guanchao did not wait for him.

When he passed by a cave, he was stopped by a familiar voice. “Hey, here!”

It was Yun Shuang.

Jiang Guanchao stopped in his tracks, as if he did not intend to stop.

Wei Xiaobao stretched out her small arms. “Aba Aba! Aba Aba!”

Yun Shuang said, “If you don’t come in soon, she’ll come out to look for you.”

Jiang Guanchao said coldly, “What does it have to do with me?”

“Woah—”

It was unknown if Wei Xiaobao understood or if she was frightened by the thunder, but she burst into tears.

“Okay, okay, okay. Xiaobao, don’t cry. Don’t cry… Your throat will hurt from crying…”

Yun Shuang coaxed her in a flurry.

Wei Xiaobao cried louder and louder.

Jiang Guanchao clenched his fists and frowned as he entered the cave.

As soon as she entered, he realized that other than Yun Shuang, Granny Ghost was also there.

Nie Jinfeng noticed his injured hand at a glance.

A trace of worry flashed across her eyes.

“Wipe yourself. Or you’ll wet the child.”

Yun Shuang threw him a dry handkerchief.

Jiang Guanchao took the handkerchief and sat down, wiping the rain off his clothes.

Wei Xiaobao stopped crying the moment she was in his arms. She crossed his feet in satisfaction and began to eat her hands.

Soon, Elder Qiu entered.

He sat down beside Nie Jinfeng.

Opposite the two of them were Yun Shuang and Jiang Guanchao, who was carrying Wei Xiaobao.

The dignified Alliance Master of the Assassin Alliance was actually babysitting. The impact of this scene was a little big.

Even though the two elders had the intention of reuniting with their son, they could not help but be shocked by the scene in front of them.

“There’s still water here.”

Yun Shuang brought over the handkerchief that Jiang Guanchao had used to finish wiping and wiped his shoulder.

This was where Wei Xiaobao often went. She was afraid that he would wet her.

However, that was not the case in the eyes of the two of them.

Nie Jinfeng muttered, “Is this… my daughter-in-law?”

Elder Qiu maintained his calm. “First, we have to acknowledge our son.”

Nie Jinfeng was speechless.

Nie Jinfeng calmed down, but she still couldn’t hide the excitement in her eyes. “Guanchao, Master’s wife has something to tell you. It’s about you…”

Jiang Guanchao interrupted her. “The rain has stopped. The two of you can leave.”

Nie Jinfeng was stunned.

Yun Shuang glanced at Jiang Guanchao and then at the two elders.

Elder Qiu said, “We searched many places and went to Dayu Mountain in the Western Jin…”

Jiang Guanchao stood up. “I still have something on, so I won’t accompany you.”

Yun Shuang asked, “What do you have on?”

Jiang Guanchao did not answer. Instead, he gave the child to Yun Shuang.

Wei Xiaobao cried,”Woo!”

Yun Shuang quickly stuffed the freshly brewed milk bottle into Wei Xiaobao’s hand.

Wei Xiaobao started feeding!

Yun Shuang said, “Please take care of Xiaobao. I’ll go look for him.”

Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao were also nearby. Wuhu had already gone to inform them and they would arrive soon.

“Thank you, Palace Lord Yun!”

Nie Jinfeng was extremely grateful and carried Wei Xiaobao over.

Jiang Guanchao walked extremely quickly. Yun Shuang had to use her qinggong to catch up to him.

“What was going on in the cave just now?”

Yun Shuang asked him.

Jiang Guanchao said with a cold expression, “When did your Hundred Flowers Palace become so nosy?”

Yun Shuang turned her head and looked at him deeply. “Do you know your background?”

Jiang Guanchao did not answer.

Yun Shuang pushed aside a branch in front of her and paused for a moment before saying, “The person who took you away from your family back then… was Nie Yangshan?!”

Jiang Guanchao still did not answer.

However, Yun Shuang had interacted with him all the way and already understood his expression.

She was clearly right.

It turned out that… he had always known his background.

No, perhaps not always.

Nie Yangshan had passed away many years ago. At the end of his life, he told him his background.

In other words, he had known that he was Nie Jinfeng’s son more than ten years ago.

However, from his interaction with Nie Jinfeng, it was impossible to tell.

Jiang Guanchao said coldly, “If you’re here to persuade me, I advise you to give up. You don’t have to worry about me!”

Yun Shuang pointed at his hand. “You injured your hand to save me. I don’t like to owe people favors. After killing those Japanese assassins, we’ll write off everything. From now on, we’ll have nothing to do with each other.”

Jiang Guanchao said, “Okay.”

Yun Shuang finally understood that Jiang Guanchao was determined not to acknowledge the two elders.

After tonight, he would really leave.

Xiaobao could not keep him.

Everyone had their own choices. The two elders had no choice back then, and Jiang Guanchao had the right to choose.

There was no right or wrong. It was just good fortune.

After that, Yun Shuang did not mention anything about his background.

The two of them crossed the mountains and found the Japanese assassins in a hidden cave.

Jiang Guanchao was furious and his attacks were several times more ruthless than before.

The Japanese assassins were powerless to resist and fell under his sword one after another.

He did not care about his injuries. Blood stained the white gauze, and the tip of his sword dripped with blood. For a moment, it was difficult to tell if it was the Japanese assassin’s or his own.

“There’s no need to do this…” Yun Shuang muttered.

Seeing that Jiang Guanchao had gone crazy, the middle-aged Japanese assassin knew that no one could escape.

With evil thoughts, he took out a few bottles of poisonous powder from his pocket and ignited an explosion with his internal strength, scattering the powder throughout the entire cave.

Then, he took out his ninja dagger and knelt on the ground, planning to commit suicide.

However, Jiang Guanchao crippled the tendons in his hands and feet.

Yun Shuang held her breath and pulled the murderous Jiang Guanchao out of the cave.

She took out a small porcelain bottle from her pouch, poured a few yellow antidotes that Su Xiaoxiao had given her to protect herself, and handed them to Jiang Guanchao. “Take them quickly!”

She took three herself.

After taking it, their blackened glabella gradually returned to normal, and their black nails regained their ruddy color.

Yun Shuang looked at her nails and said with lingering fears, “What a powerful poison! Fortunately, I prepared the antidote in advance!”

That person would not survive. All the Japanese assassins were dead.

As for the Witch they were talking about, they would deal with her when she came.

Yun Shuang said to Jiang Guanchao, “Your mission is completed. You can leave. I said that I wouldn’t stop you.”

Jiang Guanchao said, “See you again.”

Jiang Guanchao carried the sword made of blood and entered the rain.

However, before he could take two steps, his chest suddenly skipped a beat.

Yun Shuang caught his abnormality and was about to ask him what was wrong when she suddenly froze.

“My heart is beating so fast… It’s about to jump out of my throat…”

She covered her chest and muttered, wanting to circulate her energy to suppress this strange aura.

“Don’t circulate your energy!”

Jiang Guanchao stopped her.

Yun Shuang asked uncomfortably, “Why?”

Jiang Guanchao rolled up his sleeves, revealing the winding blood line on his arm.

Yun Shuang saw it too. She quickly pulled open her sleeve, and there was actually a line of blood winding up her fair arm. “This is…”

Jiang Guanchao frowned and said, “Japanese Love Poison.”

Yun Shuang said, “What’s the Japanese Love Poison?”

Jiang Guanchao said, “It’s a kind of Japanese voodoo that can make people lose their rationality. You can’t circulate your energy to force it out. Instead, it will intensify the poison in your body.”

Yun Shuang said again, “Then what should we do?”

Jiang Guanchao sat down cross-legged in the cold rain. “Meditate and get rid of distracting thoughts.”

Jiang Guanchao cultivated ice-cold internal strength and had a certain supportive effect on suppressing this voodoo poison.

Yun Shuang was different.

The Hundred Flowers Palace’s cultivation technique was born from the sun. Although she could also use the Ice Palm, this cultivation technique was to make up for the influence of the Hundred Flowers Palace’s cultivation technique.

She could not suppress the love poison.

“Jiang Guanchao, is there any other way?”

Jiang Guanchao paused. “Yes.”

Yun Shuang said anxiously, “Tell me quickly!”

Jiang Guanchao said, “Cultivate with others.”

Yun Shuang asked, “What do you mean by cultivating with others?”

Jiang Guanchao hesitated for a moment and said truthfully, “Copulation.”

Yun Shuang was speechless.

Yun Shuang turned her face away. “I don’t want it!”

Jiang Guanchao closed his eyes. “Then continue to meditate. I can teach you the internal cultivation method of the Assassin Alliance.”

Yun Shuang said, “Tell me.”

The Assassin Alliance would not teach anyone who was not their direct disciple, but there was nothing they could do now.

As Jiang Guanchao endured the discomfort brought about by the love voodoo, he told her about the Assassin Alliance’s internal cultivation method without holding back.

Yun Shuang was extremely talented. Few martial arts geniuses on Thousand Mountains Island were more talented than her.

However, she was currently corroded by the voodoo and could not calm down to study her mental cultivation technique.

Yun Shuang was furious. “What lousy mental cultivation method are you teachingqZ! Are you sure you didn’t teach the wrong thing?”

Jiang Guanchao closed his eyes and said, “It will only become harder and harder for you to learn like this. Calm down and suppress your distracting thoughts.”

Yun Shuang’s seven orifices began to bleed.

She took a deep breath and said calmly, “I’ll choose the first method. We’re all people in the martial world. There’s no need to care about such a small matter.”

Jiang Guanchao said, “I don’t want to.”

Yun Shuang, who was rejected, was speechless.
