Chapter Fifty-Four: Long Overdue Greetings

you, truly, I miss you..."Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!The mask pressed against his chest, bringing no discomfort, as if... it were human.Liang Jiu was already ac...Since leaving Starlit Origin, Jiang Wang had stopped at no place along the way.

...passing over Yangdi without entering Qingyang, he went straight to Linzi.

At the Gate of Trust, among the 108 city gates of Linzi, Chong Xuan and his comrades waited.

To choose this path holds great significance.

At first, when Jiang Wang came to Linzi, Chong Xuan Sheng was the one who led him through Xin Zimen. The purpose was to remind the Treasure Pavilion Association that people should keep their word.

Later, the Jubao Merchant Association went back on their word. Su She evaded them, so Chong Xuan came up with a plan, allowing Qing Shi to cut open his heart outside Qingshi Palace. The vast Jubao Merchant Association crumbled like a mountain collapse.

To this day, the Ju Bao Merchant Association has long since dissipated. Even Su She, who was once so prominent, died at Jiang Wang's hands and now lies in dust, reduced to nothing.

Now Jiang Wang is returning as promised, and will once again travel to Xiayue Island for her friends.

Still in the realm of character calligraphy.

Faith, is a human's saying, a saying that must be acted upon, and an action that must bear fruit.

When Jiang Wang walked to the end of Guandao and once again arrived at the imposing city of Linzi, which spanned three hundred miles, he saw a familiar, stout figure in front of the city gate, and behind him, Fourteen still wore heavy armor.

Although his journey had been arduous and he was still worried about Zhu Biqiong, he smiled nonetheless.

"What are you waiting for" he asked from afar.

Shi Fourteen was still as taciturn as ever, hidden beneath her heavy armor, standing there like a sculpture, only raising a hand.

Zheng Xuan laughed, his eyes crinkling at the corners.

Compared to his awkward first time arriving in Linzi with Jiang Wang, his current influence in Linzi was vastly different. He had essentially eaten into Chong Xuan Zun's business share, leaving only some unshakeable foundations—those parts that would remain with Chong Xuan Zun unless he completely withdrew from the contest for the clan leader position. Just like Chong Xuan Sheng's Desheng Merchant House, just like Chong Xuan Chu who helped him build the Shadow Guards, just like Fourteenth...

As one of the most prominent aristocratic families in Linzi City today, Chong Xuan only brought fourteen people to greet Jiang Wang.

Between them, there was no need for any pomp and ceremony, no need for those superficial airs.

After the battle with Wang Yiwu, everyone in Linzi knew that under any circumstances, Jiang Wang would support Chong Xuansheng, and Chong Xuansheng would always support Jiang Wang.

"Waiting for you!" Chongxuan said.

He took a step out.

Before this, Wang Yiwu had attempted an assassination but was defeated by Jiang Wang. Another murderer, Chongxuan Chulang, emerged, and the two marquesses of the Chongxuan family joined forces to pressure Zhen Guo's Great Marshal for justice. In the end, Wang Yiwu was punished and sent to the death row camp for three years without returning to Linzi.

The phase-based competition between Chong Xuan Sheng and Chong Xuan Zun has come to an end, with Chong Xuan Sheng emerging as the victor.

He orchestrated the sending of Chong Xuan to Jixia Academy and the expulsion of Wang Yiwu from Linzi City. He also masterminded, behind the scenes, the downfall of the Ju Bao Merchant Association, a fact unknown to many.

There is no one who would doubt that Chongxuan Sheng has the qualifications to contend with Chongxuan Zun.

But to this day, the unimplemented Zhēnxuān Zún, which remains the biggest hurdle for Zhēnxuān Shèng.

After Jiang Wang left, Chong Xuan Sheng turned a deaf ear to the outside world and immersed himself in cultivating diligently. It was obvious that he was working hard to close the gap in their cultivation levels.

Many people are waiting and watching to see when Xuan Sheng will achieve perfection, soar like a dragon, open his inner palace, and reveal what divine abilities he possesses.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

But Chong Xuan instead remained unhurried, steadfast in the Tenglong Realm, honing and refining himself again and again.

... to the point where there were gradually voices saying that he had been suppressed by Wang Yi's teachings, losing his potential to attain divine abilities. It was because of this that he hesitated to knock on the door of the inner palace.

Otherwise, he hadn't caused any major trouble at the time. Why would he be so furious and even dare to confront the God of War

Rumors spread like wildfire, but Chong Xuan remained silent, steadfastly holding onto his power and cultivation.

Today, all rumors will be exposed.

Because Chong Xuan took a step forward, his aura surged dramatically.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The Dao pulse surges like a dragon, once it flies out to sea.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Witnessing the five Olympic flames, I cleave open heaven and earth.

An anonymous short poem, passed down through the cultivation world, perfectly captures the splendor of ascending to the inner mansion.

From Tongtian Sea to Five Fates Sea, a dragon leaps, its inner palace opens!

In the depths of Tianfu's secret realm, Chongxuan Sheng had long since established his divine powers.

At this moment, every step forward is filled with momentum, and the aura is rising steadily.

Abruptly, he sprang to his feet. His already plump body swelled and ballooned instantly!

One zhang, two zhang, three zhang...

His rapidly increasing size caused an uproar among the people near the city gate.

The city wall of Linzi City was thirty-three zhang high, and now, Xuan Sheng's imposing figure stood almost as tall as half the city, nearly fifteen zhang!

Divine powers, commanding the heavens and the earth!

This giant stood outside Linzi City, taking a stride and reaching out with his hand to grab Jiang Wang.

A booming voice, like thunder, shook the sky and scattered the clouds: "Welcome, my friend, who has traveled far! I've missed you greatly!"

A giant hand, covering heaven and earth, as if mountains were overturned.

It was probably because of resentment towards Jiang Wang's aggressive challenges and relentless pursuit in the Illusory Realm that Chong Xuan took this action without consulting him beforehand.

But Jiang Wang was unfazed, simply saying, "Good!"

Stepping on the azure clouds, he treads lightly with self-assurance. The Xuan Sheng Palm slips from his grasp.

White clouds gather and disperse in the sky.

One step away from the palm stance, one step closer to the giant's body, and another step, already atop the giant's head!

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Every strand of this giant's hair was as thick as a python, tangled and crowded together, forming an unkempt bun. It was piled up before Jiang Wang now, heavy and imposing.

Zhong Xuan's hair buns were usually styled with fourteen braids. But Shi Fourteen's talent was clearly mainly in heavy swords, her hairpin skills were ordinary and unremarkable.

Jiang Wang laughed heartily and said, "It's been a long time. I specially tidied up this messy hair for you!"

Longing thoughts surged forth, the blade unsheathed with a clang, its cold light flashing.

“Come on, brother, that’s too much!”

Chong Xuan, his body quivering, shrank dramatically and returned to his normal form. The treasured garment he wore expanded and contracted with him, remaining perfectly intact.

Jiang Wang sheathed his sword and followed, a smirk on his face. "Greetings over This isn't the place to show off. How about we meet back at our usual spot"

Zhong Xuan Sheng didn't retort, only chuckled and said, "Come on, let's go to Qixing Pavilion. I'll treat you to a welcoming feast!"

Qixing Xiazhu is a small teahouse run by Chongxuan Sheng, and it's basically not open to the public. When Jiang Wang set off for the Qixing Secret Realm, his friends in Linzi once held a farewell ceremony for him there.

Jiang Wang was a little surprised. Unlike his usual habit of holding banquets at places like Hongxiu Pavilion or other famous establishments, Chongxuan had chosen a different venue this time. But he didn't say anything. He wasn't particularly fond of brothels and entertainment quarters anyway; all that mattered was having a place to chat with his friends. It didn't really matter where they were.

Zhong Xuan Sheng led the way, swaggering into town like a pampered young master who ran amok in some remote village.

...The exchange between Ji Cai and Jiang Wang just now was a test of their skills, with neither using their full power. Jiang Wang didn't use his divine abilities, nor did he unleash his powerful techniques. It was merely a display of his powers for the people in Linzi.

Such a clever person as Chongxuan would have deliberately chosen the day Jiang Wang returned to remove his divine powers, there must be more to it than just a sudden whim.

Such a commotion-causing magical ability, if displayed in Linzi City, the Northern Temple would immediately invite him for a grand feast. Outside Linzi City, such consideration wouldn't exist.

The more imposing it is, the better. The more majestic it is, the better.

The divine power of the Fa Tian Xiang Di is undoubtedly formidable, enough to silence all doubts and skeptics about Xuan Sheng's cultivation potential.

And he knew very well what Jiang Wang was doing this time back to Linzi.

So accustomed to keeping a low profile, he now dared to display his talents and reveal his future potential.

Because...

He will mobilize his resources to the fullest extent.
