You, in the eyes of your friends, in the eyes of your enemies, and in people's mouths.
Sometimes, it was four completely different people.
The strange thing was, Jiang Wang didn't feel angry.
He listened to the evil story of "Jiang Wang", as if he was listening to something completely unrelated to him, as if he was listening to a complete stranger.
It didn't matter if that person was evil or good. It didn't matter if people loved him or hated him.
Jiang Wang looked at himself from a different perspective — the perspective created by Zhuang Gaoxian, Du Ruhui, and the others.
This perspective was very novel, and the logic was very logical.
The timeline was clear, and the plot of the story was intertwined. The villains in the storytellers' mouths were so vivid that people were filled with righteous indignation. They wanted to spit on their faces, skin them, and kill them.
And Jiang Wang inexplicably thought …
There really could be such a person.
He was unscrupulous and did all kinds of evil. Everything he did was for the purpose of becoming stronger. He deceived gods and ghosts and treated everyone as pawns. He killed people and robbed them of their treasures. He killed the whole family because of a disagreement and stepped on the bodies of his companions to advance.
He betrayed his friends, killed his master, and committed treason.
He had no fear in life and no regrets in death.
Such a person didn't have any weaknesses.
Such a person would be very powerful and would become powerful faster.
Jiang Wang had eaten enough. He poured himself a cup of wine and drank it slowly.
A small country was a small country after all. This restaurant was only average. Although he spent a lot of money, Jiang Wang still tasted a bit of bitterness when the wine entered his throat.
When the bitter wine entered his throat, it was as if it was burning.
He drank three cups slowly, then got up and walked out.
The people in the restaurant were chatting enthusiastically. After all, it was a very rare topic to talk about when a peerless Tianjiao, who was the focus of the world's attention, fell. Everyone could step on it to show off their own wisdom.
Maybe they were mediocre, maybe they didn't accomplish anything, maybe some of them hadn't even reached the transcendent state and were still working hard for a Meridian Unlocking Pill … but it didn't stop them from commenting on Tianjiao, the strongest person in the present world.
Stepping on others was the cheapest way to satisfy oneself. It was fine as long as one was shameless.
Jiang Wang calmly walked out of the restaurant amidst the people's discussion.
It was already the second day after killing the four elites of the Evil-vanquishing Army.
Jiang Wang first headed east, then made a feint and headed south. After setting up some traces, they retraced their steps with the help of Stealth Cloak and headed east.
He passed through the area between the River Observation Platform and the Dragon Gate Academy to rush to the long river. He directly leaped over the long river and entered the central region.
Then, he began to act in his current disguise.
Too fast would attract attention, and too slow would give Zhao Xuanyang an opportunity.
Therefore, he maintained the speed of a traveling Soaring Dragon Realm cultivator. Today, he stopped at Zhong Shan Country and had a meal before continuing his journey.
As for the escape route, he made some slight changes. He was prepared to pass through the seventh town of the Changhe Nine Towns, Taowu Bridge, to reach the south bank of the Changhe Nine Towns, and then head in the direction of the Xia.
Of course, he wouldn't go to the Great Xia Nation. The Great Xia Nation wanted to kill him, and they wouldn't be any weaker than the Zhuang Nation.
The reason he walked in that direction was because he considered that it was a choice that Jiang Wang would never make with his status.
He would stop before approaching the Xia, then turn back to the north bank of the Changhe Nine Towns and return to the central region. Then, he would pass through the Xuankong Temple's territory and return to Qi.
He could not go to the Chu Country anymore.
Now, in the entire Modern World, only Qi had the reason and ability to protect him.
Although the passersby's words made some sense, Qi's protection of him might only be out of consideration for the country's reputation. But it was more reliable because it involved the country's interests. Because of this, Qi did not want him to be accused of colluding with the demons.
As long as there was a fair environment, there would definitely be a way to clear his name for the things he did not do.
False evidence was still false no matter how real it was.
He had already tried his best to erase the traces and set up a trap, but he did not think that his methods could fool Zhao Xuanyang for long.
The reason why he wanted to pass through the Changhe Nine Towns was that he was inspired by Yu Beidou's amulet. According to Chung Geng Sheng's description, Yu Beidou had obviously predicted something, so he gave him the amulet. And that amulet did indeed block something in the end. He could ask Yu Beidou about this when he met him in the future.
Jiang Wang chose to cross the river through the Nine Bridges in order to use the ancient power of the Nine Towns to eliminate any possibility of Zhao Xuanyang's pursuit.
If Zhao Xuanyang had some sort of divination skill, how could he have predicted the Changhe Nine Bridges and the people on it?
These things might not work. He could only do everything he could with the current conditions.
It should be said that Jiang Wang always tried his best to do things under any circumstances.
But in real life, hard work was not enough to achieve success. Even if you put in everything, you would not necessarily reap the rewards.
Some differences could not be bridged by factors other than time.
"You're not eating anymore?" a voice suddenly asked.
Jiang Wang's footsteps paused as he walked out.
Not far in front of him, a young man in a Yin-Yang Daoist robe stood leaning against the door with a wooden sword in his arms.
He looked at him with a warm smile.
It was Zhao Xuanyang, whom he had already met once!
He had caught up to him without him noticing!
How did he catch up to him? When did he arrive?
It was not important anymore.
Jiang Wang's reason told him that this game of chasing and escaping was over.
His plan to cross the Changhe Nine Towns twice was aborted before it even started.
But at this time, he only said, "I don't like it."
The clamor in the restaurant suddenly disappeared.
Those drinkers who were chatting enthusiastically were still talking nonsense. One said, "If I meet that evil traitor Jiang Wang, I'll do this and that." Another said, "I'll definitely let Jiang Wang see what I can do."
However, when the person who was about to leave and the person by the door looked at each other …
They were just outsiders, but they felt a kind of pressure that even the air was frozen.
So they couldn't speak.
They didn't know who these two people were, where they came from, and what they wanted to do.
But there was a kind of instinctive fear that quietly arose.
Zhao Xuanyang half leaned against the door and looked at Jiang Wang, saying, "You really surprised me. I really didn't expect you to run in this direction. "
Jiang Wang slowly removed the sharp knife from his waist and casually put it on the table next to him.
He bought it on the way, so it was not a pity to throw it away.
Then he took out the Sauvignon Slayer from the storage box and held it in his hand.
He was meticulous in handling these matters.
"Where did you think …" he asked, "I would go?"
"I thought you would go to the Yun Nation. After all, Pavilion Master Ye's daughter has a very special relationship with you. " Zhao Xuanyang didn't hide his mistake, "Longmen Academy is also possible. The Mountain Master of Longmen Academy might give you some protection for his treasure Bei Nu 'er."
Speaking of this, he was a little envious, "You are really popular with girls!"
"Really?" Jiang Wang's tone was calm as he slowly pulled the Sauvignon Slayer out of the scabbard.
Like a pool of autumn water, it flowed into his hand.
This sudden sharpness made the whole restaurant even quieter.
Only Zhao Xuanyang's expression was as usual. He asked with interest, "How did you do it? I mean, you attracted girls to you. "
"Be normal, don't be pretentious," Jiang Wang said calmly.
"I've learned." Zhao Xuanyang didn't feel offended at all. He only smiled and said, "Come with me. I'll take you to eat something to your liking. "
He had a kind of calmness that was in control of everything.
And Jiang Wang held his sword in front of him, "I'm afraid I won't be used to the prison food of Mount Yujing."
The noisy customers from before almost couldn't breathe at this moment!
At this point, how could they not know that the two people facing off in front of them were the main characters of this rumor, Jiang Wang and Zhao Xuanyang!
