Chapter 199 - 199 189

199: Chapter 189 199: Chapter 189 Jiang Tang’s starry eyes stared at Su Chang’an, who he had not seen for over a month.

Su Chang’an still wore robes of dark purple, his handsome and gentle face no longer sickly, and from him, Jiang Tang could feel a profound sense of affection.

“Lord Qianchen, at that time I thought I had died, but unexpectedly, my pet saved me.”

“Where have you been all this time?

We’ve searched so hard for you.” Su Chang’an faced Jiang Tang, whose cultivation was higher than his own, not with envy, but with the desire to become stronger.

“I…” Jiang Tang didn’t know how to explain; he could neither deceive his good friend nor tell the truth.

“Jiang Tang, you’re not dead?” Yan Weiwei walked in and saw the familiar yet strange Jiang Tang, his face so pale and now taller than before, his cultivation seemingly higher than hers.

She couldn’t believe that in just one month, a person could improve and change so rapidly.

“Hahaha, Sister Weiwei, it’s been a while!” Jiang Tang didn’t have special feelings for Yan Weiwei, but he was grateful for her help and care, perhaps the same as he would feel towards a sister.

Having never had a sister in his past or present life, he especially craved a sister’s affection.

“Both of us thought you were dead, and we even avenged you, Jiang Tang.

It’s so good that you’re alright.” Yan Weiwei cried with joy.

“Oh, you’re the ones who killed Huang Chen?

No wonder…”

Jiang Tang had long guessed that someone must have avenged him, and he had surmised it was these two.

His initial guesses and hearing the truth firsthand made him even more grateful.

Since arriving in the Cultivation World and becoming a person with an Abandoned Spiritual Root, having lived through the death of his parents and relatives in an epidemic, Jiang Tang had fully experienced the vicissitudes of human relations during his three hard years of cultivation.

It was only from Su Chang’an and Yan Weiwei that he had felt the warmth of friendship.

“Jiang Tang, how did you come to know that Huang Chen died?” Yan Weiwei was puzzled by this question, wondering if Jiang Tang had again encountered revenge from the Huang Family.

“I was beaten by Huang Chen into a space cut off from the world.

Unexpectedly, when I came back to life, I met the soul of Huang Chen.

He had become a Ghost Cultivator and was doing evil in that space.”

“What?

Huang Chen didn’t do anything to you, did he?”

“No, I was continuously cultivating in that space for over a month.

My cultivation improved and I finally got out and came back to find you.”

“Good, it’s good that you’re back.” Seeing Jiang Tang again today, Yan Weiwei realized her feelings for him were not romantic, but concern for him like a little brother.

Her heart belonged to another man.

“Sister Weiwei, I have a gift for you.” Jiang Tang took out a hairpin.

“Disciple Jiang Tang, this really isn’t necessary!”

“Please accept it, Sister Weiwei!

This is a Magical Treasure I’ve made, inside are Pills and Medicine I have refined, all inscribed with characters,” Jiang Tang insisted on giving her his heartfelt gift.

“Alright, I’ll accept it.” Yan Weiwei inserted the hairpin into her curls, took out a small mirror from her Storage Bag to check her reflection, and felt it was beautiful and was very pleased.

“Lord Qianchen, I have some gifts for you as well, inside are the Pills I’ve refined.” Jiang Tang took out a Storage Bag.

“Jiang Tang, keep your possessions; I acknowledge and appreciate the gesture.” Su Chang’an did not reach out to take it, not wanting to accept the possessions Jiang Tang had obtained through life and death, and besides, with his wealth, he did not need gifts from others.

“Lord Qianchen, this is a new Pill I’ve developed, it will certainly be beneficial for you, take it for self-defense,” Jiang Tang threw the Storage Bag to Su Chang’an.

“Alright!

Thank you,” Su Chang’an took the Storage Bag, not even bothering to look as he placed it into his own.

“By the way, after I left, how did things go at Holy Pavilion, Lord Qianchen?”

Jiang Tang attached great importance to the first shop he had set up in his life.

If it hadn’t been for the accident, he would have undoubtedly managed it to great acclaim.

“Jiang Tang, don’t worry.

After you left, the assistant used my Jade Token to stock our shop.

The goods weren’t as good as the ones you provided.

Later, Ye Tian from North City Immortal Sect’s Refining Artifacts Peak supplied us with Magical Treasures.

I let him become a shareholder.

You don’t mind, do you?”

“Ye, the genius from Refining Artifacts Peak?

Having him as one of our shareholders is fantastic.

It’s not just me supplying the goods anymore; our business will thrive even more,” Jiang Tang said, clapping his hands in joy.

He had heard of Ye Tian before but had never dared to associate with him.

With his status as a Servant Disciple, he couldn’t even meet Ye Tian.

Even if they did meet, he wouldn’t have anything to say.

Knowing his place, he found it serendipitous that he was now able to run a business with Ye Tian.

During his time in the two spaces, Jiang Tang had gathered many treasures and Spiritual Objects.

He wasn’t as concerned with wealth as he was before.

He had also found Golden Crystals on the sun, a material thousand times more valuable than Gold Coins.

These were his secrets, and he had no intention of leaking them.

“Hmm, Brother Ye is also ahead, working to heal the people inside the city.”

“Right, Lord Qianchen, what exactly happened to Chen Lei?”

“So many of us participated in the triennial competition, but two days ago, the competition grounds were destroyed in an explosion, and then a Devil appeared.

While we were chasing the Devil, these people caused a terror incident and released poison gas.

Those with higher cultivation levels escaped.

“Only those with low cultivation and ordinary humans are trapped inside.

We managed to rescue some yesterday, but there are simply too many people in the city.

The Pills for Qi Cultivation can’t save everyone, and I’m afraid the prospects for those still inside aren’t good.”

“This…

Lord Qianchen, in the space where I encountered the disaster, I found some Vitality Flowers.

Just soaking these flowers in water, the people who drink it can be detoxified.”

“Really?

Jiang Tang, you save people from fire and water; Heaven will surely reward you,” said Yan Weiwei, whose civilian background made her even more concerned for the populace.

“Heh, maybe so!

Just having a second chance at life is Heaven’s favor to me.”

Jiang Tang took out another Storage Bag, which in fact contained freshly picked Vitality Flowers from the space; he handed it to Su Chang’an.

Su Chang’an checked the bag with his spiritual power and saw that the flowers inside were very fresh, with a strong essence of vitality wafting from the bag.

“Good, there’s no time to lose; let’s go rescue people,” Su Chang’an was the first to fly out of the dense forest.

Jiang Tang and Yan Weiwei followed, flying out of the dense forest to join the crowd outside.

There were several hundred people, with some engaged in Alchemy.

Jiang Tang noticed Hua Sheng among them—disciples of Medicine Sect worked diligently at potion-making, but it was a pity that their Pills were of poor quality, evidenced by the wasted remnants near them.

He shook his head; without external aids, using Fire Talismans to make Pills, the results would be even poorer; it may also be related to their talents and Cultivation Techniques.

The heritage of Medicine Sect wasn’t something everyone could understand; only the elite disciples managed to produce high-quality or at most medium-quality Pills.

Jiang Tang sighed again but refrained from criticizing, for he had no right to judge a Sect striving so hard to save lives.
