Hearing Jiang Ningās words, Linglongās eyebrows and eyes immediately relaxed.
"Master, itās almost two hours!"
"Two hours?" A look of surprise flashed in Jiang Ningās eyes.
He still remembered the last time he entered the Inner Realm of Shangyang, he stayed inside for a whole day, but upon returning, he discovered that only a short moment had passed.
Yet this time.
It was his second time entering the Inner Realm of Shangyang.
The time spent inside was not yet full.
On the Heavenly Ladder, he had to return to reality because he couldnāt withstand the immense pressure.
However, in terms of time, nearly two hours had passed.
"Why is this happening?" A thought flashed through his mind.
At that moment, his attention was instantly drawn to the changes within his body.
He closed his eyes slightly, and his Heart Spirit sank into the Spirit Platform.
Then, he immediately saw his Divine Soul in the Spirit Platform, filled with golden light from head to toe.
"The Divine Soul has completely transformed into Pure Yang!"
"This is the Yang God!!"
Seeing the change in the Divine Soul at this moment, a joy emerged in his heart.
The next moment.
With a thought,
the Yang God leaped out from the Spirit Platform and then hovered three feet above his head.
Following this, he saw the gaze that Linglong cast in his direction.
"Master?" she tentatively spoke towards the void above Jiang Ningās head.
"Itās me!" Jiang Ning spoke, and an invisible ripple was transmitted, then fell into Linglongās mind.
Hearing Jiang Ningās voice in her mind, Linglong immediately revealed a bright smile.
Subsequently.
Jiang Ning floated to Linglongās side.
He wanted to see what changes had occurred after the Yang God.
At this moment.
Linglongās small right hand slowly reached out, extending forward.
Jiang Ning looked down and saw Linglongās small hand pass through his golden chest, landing in the void.
"It really is masterās aura!" Linglong murmured.
At this moment, Jiang Ning felt like a ghost, like an illusion, without any sense of physical contact with Linglong.
Then, he tentatively reached out to lift Linglongās long hair.
A small strand of hair was instantly lifted by him.
"It seems I can easily affect material objects now!" The thought flashed through his mind.
"Huh?" Linglong immediately looked down at the strand of long hair lifted by Jiang Ning, her eyes bright.
"Protect me!" Jiang Ning spoke, and a ripple was transmitted into Linglongās mind.
"Sure, master!!" Linglong immediately nodded.
The next moment.
Jiang Ningās figure moved.
Instantly transformed into a golden light and fled.
The golden light streaked through the night, creating a golden trail across half of the East District.
When he stopped,
the golden Yang God was already hovering over the Commandery Governor Mansion.
Then, he aimed, and with a move,
he instantly descended towards a building in the Commandery Governor Mansion.
Then, he appeared in Wang Qintanās room.
On the bed, the two sisters breathed steadily, Wang Qinghan sprawled out on the bed.
The weather was hot, and the two of them were only covered with a thin blanket.
Seeing Wang Qinghan also there, Jiang Ningās figure flashed, then turned into a golden light and flew out of the room.
Subsequently, the golden light pierced through the sky, fleeing into the distance.
Just the moment after he left,
Wang Qintan suddenly opened her eyes.
She looked at the position where Jiang Ning had just been.
Then glanced down at the arm pressed against her chest, and with a forceful push, she rolled Wang Qinghan to the corner against the wall.
Afterward.
She lifted the thin blanket and got out of bed.
Her plain white undergarments were particularly conspicuous in the dark.
She half-wore her embroidered shoes, heels exposed, then walked to the propped-up window.
Opening the window, the bright moonlight fell on her.
Reflected by the plain white undergarments, the moonlight appeared even more bright and clear.
After opening the window, she looked around but didnāt see that familiar figure.
"Gone?" she murmured.
She then put down the window support and completely closed the window again.
She returned to the place where Jiang Ning had just been.
"The aura of the Yang God, the scent of his Divine Soul!" Wang Qintan sniffed slightly, as if she could tell.
"He actually came to find me at night!" A slight smile appeared at the corners of Wang Qintanās mouth: "Then Iāll go find him tomorrow."
Afterwards, she returned to bed and peacefully went back to sleep.
...
The other side.
A streak of golden light pierced the darkness, cutting through the sky.
In just a moment, he arrived in Luoshui County.
Thus, his revisit took only a brief moment, and then he went to Canglang Martial Arts Hall.
Seeing Wang Jin sleeping soundly, his breath strong and vigorous, clearly his body was very robust.
Seeing this, he nodded in satisfaction, and then soared away.
Moments later, he arrived at Water Moon Sword Palace.
Under the Divine Woman Statue.
Moonlight poured coldly down.
The hall was vast and chilly, devoid of any human presence.
At this moment, Xiao Emei was dressed in pure white, her clothes fitting close, showing off an exceptionally fine figure.
Her long hair hung down, still bearing drops of water, clearly just after bathing.
At this moment, under the moonlight, Xiao Emei seemed even more ethereal.
Jiang Ning glanced over, immediately realizing Xiao Emei had made significant progress.
This progress wasnāt just in the realm of martial arts.
In his mind arose the words spoken by the Moon Palace Goddess within the Divine Woman Statue.
"It seems Xiao Emei has her own opportunities too!" Looking at Xiao Emei, whose demeanor was as if with frost and snow, he murmured in his heart.
Then, his gaze fell upon the Divine Woman Statue behind Xiao Emei.
In his current view, it was entirely different from what he had seen before.
The jade-carved Divine Woman Statue now had numerous light clusters flying and swirling around, as if moonlight spirits danced and flickered upon the statue.
On the Divine Woman Statue, hazy white light expanded outward, appearing ever more mystical.
Suddenly.
He seemed to see a lake, a tranquil lake under the cloak of moonlight.
In the next moment.
A giant osmanthus tree covered Moon Lake, blocking his vision, as if everything he had just seen was merely an illusion.
Then, he keenly sensed a gaze falling upon him.
The gaze was gentle, yet it inexplicably sent a chill through him.
In a fleeting moment, that feeling immediately vanished.
"Senior, this junior bids farewell!" Jiang Ning respectfully clasped his hands to the Divine Woman Statue.
Then he exited the hall, turning into a streak of golden light, soaring through the Water Moon Sword Palaceās buildings and corners.
A quarter hour later.
He departed from Water Moon Sword Palace, transforming into a golden light, slicing through the sky, heading straight towards Divine Sword Manor.
In just a moment.
He arrived at Divine Sword Manor.
Then transformed into golden light, moving through Divine Sword Manor, investigating every place.
Moments later.
He hovered above Divine Sword Manor, nodding slightly.
Shangguan Feilong did well, didnāt drop the ball.
Then.
He moved, transforming into a streak of golden light entering Shangguan Feilongās room.
Looking at Shangguan Feilong on the bed, lost in a dream.
He then approached the table.
With his hand, he slowly traced over the wooden table.
Zizzāā
Wood chips flew.
"Who!!!"
The sleeping Shangguan Feilong suddenly awoke.
Accompanied by fluttering fabric, he promptly stood beside the bed, his eyes burning as he looked in Jiang Ningās direction.
His pupils slightly shrank as he looked at the tabletop.
Wood chips fluttered, and four words slowly appeared on the table.
"It is me, Jiang Ning!"
As the four words lay upon the tabletop, Shangguan Feilongās pupils suddenly contracted.
Nothing was in front, no one there, yet plainly someone was writing on the table, and according to the writings, the visitor was Jiang Ning whom he feared.
His thoughts moved, and his face immediately showed a mix of alarm and surprise.
"Greetings, Mr. Jiang!" He bowed respectfully toward the void before the table.
Watching the fearful and surprised Shangguan Feilong, Jiang Ning chuckled.
He could tell Shangguan Feilong was putting on an act.
Though his own presence was eerie.
Shangguan Feilong was no ordinary person.
He was the Family Head of the Shangguan family, widely knowledgeable, how could he be startled by such a minor scene.
He merely knew of his possible arrival, deliberately showing such an expression.
In the next moment.
He extended his finger, slowly tracing over the wooden table once again.
"I just inspected the manor, youāve done well!"
Seeing these words, his pupils instantly contracted, cold sweat emerging from his back.
He felt a sudden sense of relief, relieved the time was still short, he hadnāt yet harbored any treacherous thoughts.
Leaving that message on the table, Jiang Ning then brushed the table, causing the text to vanish, leaving the tabletop an inch thinner.
