Chapter 228: Chapter 210 Following Their Plan_2
Pouring water for the “master” is one of her daily tasks.
“I can pour the water myself.”
“Work.” She said simply.
Watching Liu Qing's meticulous manner.
Jiang Cheng silently swallowed his saliva.
In the future, he must be extremely cautious when assigning her tasks, because she takes her work very seriously.
As the day gradually turned to evening, only three pictures remained in Liu Qing's hands.
Jiang Cheng stole a glance and discovered that these three pictures were of the Shadow Puppet Sect's “Multi-Shadow Easy Travel Art”, the Blood Blade Sect's “Blood Family Blade-Waving Technique”, and the Magpie Beast Sect's “Postnatal Care for Snakes”.
Jiang Cheng: ???
“Cough, this doesn't count; President Gao must have photographed it by mistake.”
Jiang Cheng snatched the “snake care” picture from Liu Qing's hands.
“How could President Gao be so careless as to mix general knowledge books with cultivation techniques?”
“It is a cultivation technique.” Liu Qing said.
“How could this possibly be a cultivation technique… It seems it actually is.”
The Magpie Beast Sect is a beast-taming Demon Sect.
This “snake care” book is a supplement to the serpent-taming methods of the sect.
“I will not practice this one, which of the remaining two do you prefer?”
“This one.”
Liu Qing handed the Shadow Puppet Sect's “Multi-Shadow Easy Travel Art” to Jiang Cheng.
As a sect that requires controlling puppets, the Shadow Puppet Sect's “Multi-Shadow Easy Travel Art” is a rare Demon Gate technique that can train spiritual power.
With Jiang Cheng currently at the seventh level of Qi Cultivation Stage, as long as he has sufficient spiritual power, he could even try to draw a second-tier talisman during the Qi Cultivation Stage, just like Yue Linger.
The atmosphere at the high-level meeting of the Tongtian Sect was extremely somber.
Li Ancheng, the current Helmsman of the Tongtian Sect's Liangguo Subrudder, had a stern face, his eyebrows knitted in deep concern.
“Taixu Sect's recent actions are very unusual. Do you all remember? A few days ago, they came to our Tongtian Sect to force a showdown with great fanfare, acting as if they were enforcing justice and would not rest until they had done so. But recently, they suddenly became quiet. All interactions between the two sides have silently returned to how they were before the protests.”
“Helmsman, isn't that because we made concessions and released the people they wanted?”
The Alchemy Association President shook his head: “No, it's definitely not for that reason. They only asked for three people. These three are now locked up in Liang Kingdom's prison, their fates uncertain. If they truly wanted to save them, why would they leap out of the dragon's den only to enter the tiger's cave?”
Li Ancheng said, “Think about the consequences of us releasing those three Hehuan Sect disciples.”
“Helmsman, are you suggesting that Taixu Sect used the Hehuan Sect disciples to bring down Prince Qi?”
“It's not without possibility.”
“Why would Taixu Sect want to take down Prince Qi?”
“Yeah, don't the Immortal Sects have a tradition of not interfering with the mortal world?”
The president of Ling University spoke up: “You all might not know this, but Taixu Sect's university admitted a special student this year. She is the second daughter of Emperor Liang and in theory, she could ascend to the throne.”
Upon hearing this, the meeting erupted into a flurry of discussion.
“A woman ascending the throne seems a bit too fanciful, doesn't it?”
“We can't be careless. While Liang Kingdom has no precedent, other countries have had female emperors. Besides, the Sect Leader of Taixu Sect is a woman; it's entirely possible they'd want to support a female monarch.”
“The probability of a woman becoming emperor is too low. Even if we don't intervene, relying solely on Taixu Sect's power, they will mostly be unable to settle the nobility of the entire court.”
“Don't underestimate the Taixu Sect. They've just brought down Prince Qi.”
“It's just a coincidence.”
“I think it's a coincidence too. Without the opportunity created by our Tongtian Sect's demon eradication, what could Taixu Sect do to a prince? They might have the ability to take advantage of the situation, but not necessarily the capability to go against it.”
Yu Mo, the president of Lotus University, nodded: “That's right. The heroes of this demon elimination are our school's student Jiang Cheng and the President of Talisman Master Association, President Gao. I have great trust in our school's students. Jiang Cheng would absolutely not collude with Taixu Sect. Taixu Sect's ability to eliminate Prince Qi is mostly just taking advantage of the situation, hitching a ride.”
After Yu Mo spoke, everyone in the hall nodded in agreement.
Jiang Cheng and Gao Miao are both bona fide Tongtian Sect members; the demon eradication campaign they led surely couldn't have been to help Taixu Sect, right?
Li Ancheng didn't speak, but gave the Elder of the Enforcement Hall a meaningful look.
The Elder of the Enforcement Hall promptly activated the projection formation, which displayed Jiang Cheng's first visit to Li Qingge's house.
A Lotus University student's late-night meeting with a high-ranking official of Taixu Sect carries an obvious implication.
“This…”
The faces of many Tongtian Sect cultivators, including Yu Mo, president of Lotus University, changed dramatically.
Although Jiang Cheng is not officially a disciple of Tongtian Sect, he is a student of Lotus University and has long been under the care of Tongtian Sect's influence.
If Jiang Cheng truly switched allegiance to Taixu Sect, it would amount to a minor betrayal for those present.
“Does anyone else have something to say?”
Li Ancheng asked calmly.
The hall was silent.
With a student under him causing such a scene, Yu Mo, the president of Lotus University, and Guo Xiuyuan, the head of the Talisman Department, suddenly felt that they had lost face.
Gao Miao hesitated, wanting to say something but holding back.
“President Gao, what do you want to say?”
Gao Miao coughed and said, “Well, I think this trajectory can't be taken as evidence that Jiang Cheng has joined Taixu Sect.”
“Oh?”
“Gao Miao, just speak directly. Why are you beating around the bush in front of the Helmsman?” Guo Xiuyuan said.
Taking a leap of faith, Gao Miao shared his speculation.
“I believe, based on my observations of Jiang Cheng and Li, that Jiang Cheng's visit to Li's home might not be an attempt to join Taixu Sect.”
Li Ancheng, seated at the head, took a sip of tea and calmly asked, “Why not?”
All eyes turned to Gao Miao.
