Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation Chapter 204

Jiang Xiu stood up and walked towards the railing of the pavilion with his hands behind his back, gazing towards the starry skies. "I understand your intentions in coming to persuade me, but although you found out how scary Ji Wudao is, you couldn't figure out kind of existence this Deity is."
Old Nie looked towards his back and felt as if Jiang Xiu was blending with the world at this moment. It was as if he were swallowing everything. His clothes fluttered, and his hair waved due to the wind, slowly resulting in a transformation of his appearance. It seemed as if he were a Deity far above the secular world. Although Old Nie was shocked, he still shook his head.
The 2nd Form of Deification is indeed incredible. It isn't like you aren't strong. You're already powerful enough, but your opponent is much, much stronger than you.
Jiang Xiu said, "Since Old Nie believes that Ji Wudao's cultivation is higher than mine, why did you come visit me then? Aren't you scared that Ji Wudao will come to find you later?"
Old Nie said, "It's because you're only 20 years old and the first Demigod to appear after WW2."
Jiang Xiu laughed loudly, "Does Old Nie cherish talents?"
Old Nie said, "Cherishing talents is just one reason. The other reason is that Mr. Jiang is like a rare commodity worth investing in. The Nie family had no choice but to act. If Mr. Jiang has some accomplishments in the future, I hope you'll remember that I rushed to inform you tonight and grace us with your favor."
Jiang Xiu felt that this old man was really frank. He liked people like these and disliked those hypocrites. Those people obviously come over with an aim in mind but act as if they were a saint here to help.
"I won't leave!" Jiang Xiu stated.
Old Nie became anxious. The Nie family had waited for a Demigod for a long time, almost a century. "Mr. Jiang, is it worth the trouble? Are you going to fight Ji Wudao for upholding face?"
"That's just a barbarian act!"
Jiang Xiu answered calmly, "Even if Ji Wudao is a God, he might not be able to do anything to me."
Old Nie said, "Having confidence is a good thing, but… let it be. Since Mr. Jiang is determined on doing it, this old man will drop the matter." Saying so, he got up.
He thought - Very few people have really become Gods over China's history of 6 millenniums, but no proof has ever been recorded. However, the only thing which was clearly written was that Gods must not be offended. If Ji Wudao is indeed a God, then even if all the Demigods of the world gathered together, they won't be able to do anything to him.
"I'll say goodbye then!"
It was apparent that he didn't believe Jiang Xiu's words.
After leaving the Jiang Mansion, he couldn't help but take a glance back. This old garden was full of historic charm. He sighed deeply and shook his head. His heart was filled with disappointment.
Feeling that it was a pity for the Nie family and even greater pity for Jiang Xiu.
Wang Xintong was worried, "Old Nie is knowns as the Gold Dragon, Nie Yin. This person has studied each family's history right from his childhood and traveled all over the world. His knowledge towards matters is pretty unusual. He even found out the secrets of Ji Wudao. Wouldn't it be better to listen to his advice and lay low abroad?"
"Money can be earned easily."
"You're still quite young, so it won't be too late if you return after Ji Wudao passes away."
Wang Xintong said, "I'll always follow you."
Jiang Xiu smiled at her, "If Old Nie's inference is correct, it's possible Ji Wudao has lived for over 500 years."
"Isn't that good then? Since he has lived for 500 years, he definitely won't live longer. Who knows what might happen after a few years?"
"A deer which lives for 500 years becomes a White Deer, if it lives for another 500 years, it becomes a Mystic Deer. When Han became Emperor, the people of Zhongshan caught a Mystic Deer and cooked it. Its bones were black in color and suitable for an ingredient for creating a potion of immortality. The food created from the Mystic Deer increased the lifespan by 2000 years."
Wang Xintong was bewildered.
Jiang Xiu said, "Live for 500 years, and you become an Earth Immortal. If Ji Wudao has indeed lived for over 500 years, he's already become an Earth Immortal and can live up to 2000 years. You want me to live longer than him?"
"Aaah?"
Wang Xintong's eyes grew wide in surprise.
"Live for 2000 years?"
A dynasty lasted over 200 years, and history was quite long already. If a person could live for 2000 years, he was no different from an Immortal.
It was no wonder they were called Earth Immortals.
"Then why are you…"
Since Ji Wudao was so powerful, she believed it was best to avoid him. She couldn't understand why he insisted on persevering. Earth was quite big, and all it would require was to live incognito or undergo plastic surgery. Ji Wudao wouldn't be able to find him even if he wanted to.
Jiang Xiu smiled coolly then walked over towards his room.
"The list of all those from Jiangnan who must be killed is already prepared. Notify Bodhi Gene to act. Since the Jiang family has dared to step here, they must pay the price for it."
"Kill all of them?" Wang Xintong asked.
Her complexion turned pale as she shivered. The list contained over 1000 people and involved over 20 families. Moreover, these people were all influential officials of Jiangnan.
She didn't dare imagine what kind of chaos it would lead Jiangnan to if all of them were killed.
"Kill them!"
Jiang Xiu's tone didn't have the slightest amount of hesitation.
The people of Jiangnan had no idea that the butcher's knife had fallen over the peaceful night. The full moon in the sky was covered by black clouds at some time.
"Hmm?"
Cheng Lingsu was at the pool, doing laundry when it started raining. She raised her head to welcome a drop of rain on her face. In an instant, it turned into a massive downpour. She covered her head with her hands and ran towards the distant corridor.
"How come it started raining all of a sudden?"
Rumble!
Lightning streaked across the pitch-black sky. A dozen ghost-like shadows quietly invaded a mansion in Hang City, blood sprayed across the sky along with heads tumbling down.
In another manor at Hang City, mournful screams resounded all over the place. A person crawled out of the house drenched in blood all over, but the butcher's knife jabbed into his back heartlessly.
Ninghai, Xianshan, as well as Jiang City, were shrouded under this heavy rain. Every moment thunder flashed across the skies, scarlet blood mixed along with the water flowing on the ground.
Everyone knew who did it, but there was no evidence. The people at the Imperial Capital knew the reason it had happened. Crown Prince Ao had acted high-profile when he descended to Jiangnan, and Jiang Xiu acted even more high-profile than him. It was as if he was provoking Jiang Yishan, asking him whether he can face this kind of consequence.
This matter would lead to chaos in Jiangnan, and inevitably provoke Diaoyutai's ire.
Wang Xintong was constantly worried about it, so she called Gu Dezhi before dawn. Gu Dezhi lost all his drowsiness after hearing about it. If Wang Xintong hadn't called him, the sight of Jiangnan in the morning after he woke up would've been something else entirely. He immediately used the army to handle the aftermath so that those dead bodies aren't exposed.
Around the dawn of the morrow, those soldiers donned in raincoats settled everything. Luckily, it was raining quite heavily or else it would've been difficult to conceal the scent of blood drifting in the air.
The Jiang family was full of hate due to Jiang Ao getting killed, and no one had slept the entire night as everyone was suffering from anguish. They were waiting for the body to arrive so that they could see him one last time before handing the posthumous matters.
Ye Mi anxiously rushed inside at this moment, "Elder, something huge has happened."
Elder Jiang waved his hand, "Don't say it. My grandson's body is going to arrive. I don't want to hear about anything else right now…" Jiang Ao was his greatest hope, someone he was planning to make his successor. But now…
The most painful thing in this world is for a gray-haired person to send off a black-haired person.
Ye Mi said anxiously, "T-This matter is critical."
The other members of the Jiang family looked at Ye Mi with disgust. Can't you see where you are? This is the mourning hall. Everyone's wearing mourning garments, and the lady has almost lost consciousness due to crying. Has your sight become so worse that you can't see all this?
Ye Mi furrowed his brows, "The big shots, as well as the officials from over 20 families, nearly a 1000 people who had supported Jiang Ao, were all slaughtered today at daybreak. None of them escaped alive."
Whoosh!
Elder Jiang's expression became blank. His eyes grew wide as an unprecedented sense of panic flashed through them, "What did you say?"
The expressions of his sons, as well as sons-in-law standing there, also changed.
They knew what kind of consequences this would lead to.
Elder Jiang couldn't believe it, "Tell me again!"
"Elder, that Jiang Luoxia was really too ruthless…" Secretary Ye shivered all over and felt his hands and feet go cold. Jiangnan was about to collapse, and the origin for all of this was the Jiang family sending Jiang Ao to Jiangnan.
"Elder!"
Elder Jiang lost all strength in his body and felt his vision go white. He couldn't keep standing anymore and collapsed.
