#38 - Chapter 038 Assassination of Jiang Ning
In the ancestral land, Jiang Ning only went to the Stele Forest to wipe the stone tablets in the mornings.
In the afternoons, he stayed in the bamboo house to accompany the little fox.
This little fellow seemed to be more and more attached to him, so he had no choice but to spare time to read and play with it.
Through Eunuch Zhou, who was possessed by the Black Fiend,
Jiang Ning also learned something about the affairs in the imperial court.
Regarding this, he could only smile wryly.
This younger sister of his was too capable of making trouble, and he simply didn't want to leave the ancestral land.
Did she ever consider how her brother felt?
For Jiang Ning, the ancestral land was a treasure trove.
Here, he could easily survive until he became a saint.
Only by becoming a saint could he gain a foothold in this jungle-law-governed otherworld.
For this reason, even though he could kill his great enemy Jiang Tiantai, Jiang Ning, taking the overall situation into consideration, did not go to kill him.
Causing chaos in the Great Xia Dynasty would not be beneficial to him.
"What are you thinking about?"
The little fox jumped onto Jiang Ning's shoulder, its cute pair of eyes staring at him.
Xiao Li was hoeing the ground, planting vegetables, watering, and fertilizing in the vegetable garden.
At the age of eighteen, with the seventh level of the Wu Ju Realm, she was not at all inferior to the Divine Queen You Ning.
Such a heaven's proud daughter, like a divine moon in the sky, capable of shocking Xuan Huang, was actually planting the land here without any complaints.
If this were to spread out, it would definitely shock the cultivators of Xuan Huang and be hard to believe.
"I'm not thinking about anything."
Jiang Ning smiled slightly.
The little fox wrinkled its delicate nose and shook its head, "I can sense that you are lying."
"Ah~" Jiang Ning was startled, could this little fellow even know when he was lying?
"Is it because you don't want your younger sister to rescue you from the ancestral land?" the little fox said.
This made Jiang Ning even more shocked, it actually guessed what he was thinking.
"This is the mind-sensing technique of my Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, I can sense some of your thoughts."
The little fox said proudly.
Jiang Ning smiled bitterly, in the future, would he have no secrets in front of A-Li?
The little fox saw through Jiang Ning's thoughts and said, "I can only sense a little bit, I won't know all your secrets."
"Besides, even if I know your secrets, I will never hurt you, you are the most important person in my life."
The little fox affectionately rubbed its small head against Jiang Ning's face.
Obviously, in its mind, there was no one in this world more important than Jiang Ning.
Although it was still a little girl of just over one year old, it was very intelligent.
Jiang Ning showed a gratified smile like an old father, it was not in vain to dote on this little fellow.
"What do you want to eat tonight? I'll cook myself."
In his happiness, Jiang Ning prepared to personally show off his cooking skills.
"I want to eat grilled fish tonight, you accompany me to go fishing."
The little fox entered the house like a ghost, and then quickly returned.
In its small claws, it held a fishing rod.
Since the last time it ate the fish that Jiang Ning personally grilled, it had never forgotten it.
"Okay, we'll eat grilled fish tonight," Jiang Ning said with a smile.
"Young Master, I want to eat too," Xiao Li in the vegetable garden also said happily.
Jiang Ning brought the little fox to a small lake near the ancestral land.
This place was extremely remote, and basically no one came here.
Jiang Ning usually looked for secluded places to cultivate at night and discovered it unintentionally.
He sprinkled the bait, cast the fishing line, and began to fish.
The little fox stood on Jiang Ning's shoulder, anxiously watching the float, muttering in its heart: "Fish, fish, quickly take the bait."
The float moved at this moment, and the little fox couldn't help but shout: "Pull it up quickly."
Jiang Ning smiled calmly, "Don't worry, the fish hasn't completely taken the bait yet."
At this moment, a terrifying pressure swept towards the lake.
The fish were completely scared away.
Under the powerful force, the lake surface was even stirred up with boundless waves.
The surrounding trees shook violently, as if experiencing an unprecedented huge storm.
The Celestial-Human Realm was already capable of mobilizing the power of heaven and earth.
Every move and every action could cause changes in the celestial phenomena.
Jiang Ning frowned, thinking to himself: "It seems that because of Jiang Yunhe, Jiang Tiantai already has murderous intentions towards me."
"Hmph, but I, Jiang Ning, am not an easy target," Jiang Ning's heart surged with killing intent.
Then, a eunuch with an effeminate appearance and eyes full of gloom walked out.
He walked in the air, as if walking on flat ground.
The little fox's fur stood on end, "Old guy, you scared away this grandma's fish, believe it or not, I'll beat you up."
"Such a small fox demon can actually speak."
Wei Tianxian was surprised for a moment, then revealed a big laugh, "It seems that this little fox's bloodline is not weak, it would be good to catch it and keep it as a pet."
"You not only scared away my fish, but also want to catch me as a pet, you're bullying foxes too much!"
The little fox got angry, turned into a sharp light, and attacked Wei Tianxian.
Bang!
The two sides exchanged a blow in mid-air.
Wei Tianxian took a few steps back, revealing an extremely shocked expression.
"What? How is that possible?"
Heavens, this little fox actually reached the sixth-order demon beast! (Celestial-Human Realm).
"Ancient… Ancient Remnant, your bloodline must be an Ancient Remnant!"
Wei Tianxian's whole person became excited.
The preciousness of an Ancient Remnant would drive even saints crazy.
"Little fellow, obediently surrender and become this old man's pet."
Wei Tianxian condensed a giant palm, shining brightly, and slapped towards the little fox.
The little fox was not to be outdone, condensing a ball of demon fox flames, and bombarded towards Wei Tianxian.
Boom~!
The huge explosion stirred up tens of meters of huge waves.
The surrounding trees were all turned into dust in rows, incomparably terrifying.
Jiang Ning did not take action immediately, it was good to let the little fox see the dangers of the world.
Otherwise, it always had an invincible appearance, and something would happen sooner or later.
"It seems that if I don't show some real skills, I won't be able to deal with you, little fox."
Wei Tianxian was furious and used the Blazing Flame Divine Palm, a high-grade Celestial-Rank combat skill.
Rumble~
The huge flame palm, emitting a high temperature that could burn the void, killed towards the little fox.
The little fox was not to be outdone, the demon fox flames turned into three and killed.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The little fox and Wei Tianxian, who was at the fifth level of the Celestial-Human Realm, fought head-on.
The two sides clashed fiercely, and the destructive power of the battle turned everything around into nothingness, incomparably terrifying.
However, in the end, the little fox was still young and inexperienced, and even though it was a descendant of the Nine-Tailed Fox, it was defeated.
Puchi~
The little fox was directly slapped away by Wei Tianxian, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing the little fox injured, Jiang Ning's brows locked, and an incomparably terrifying killing intent burst out from between his eyes.
"If you dare to hurt it, no one will be able to save your life."
A cold voice sounded.
Jiang Ning put down the fishing rod and stood up from the small stool.
"Haha, with just you, a cripple, can you kill this old man?"
Wei Tianxian laughed mockingly.
Not to mention that the deposed crown prince had his roots destroyed, even if he was intact, he could crush him with a little finger.
"Deposed Crown Prince, today is the day you die."
Wei Tianxian laughed triumphantly.
