The Azure Cloud Pavilion's encampment was located twenty miles east of Wenxi County, on a mountain that was not very tall.
Like the other organizations on this land, they abided by the Yong laws.
The scenery here was quiet and secluded, with continuous pavilions. Although it could not be compared to the Lingxiao Pavilion, it still had its own style.
Unknowingly, Jiang Wang had already lived here for more than half a month.
Apart from cultivating every day, he followed Feng Ming around, strictly playing the role of a follower. He helped Feng Ming to be in the limelight, but he did not show off. If anything happened, he would take the blame for Feng Ming.
He had also explored many places in the Azure Cloud Pavilion, but there was still no trace of the lost building of the Cloud Top Palace.
During this time, he participated in the blessed land challenge on the fifteenth of the first month and fell to the 40th place, Bo Chi Mountain.
He did not fight many battles at the Sword Discourse Arena, so although he won many battles, he still did not enter the top 100 of the Inner Mansion Stage.
He did not chat much with Chung Geng Sheng, because he was cultivating hard and catching up with time, so there was little time to chat. Nothing major happened in Linzi, and everything was normal.
He sparred with Zuo Guangshu a few times, and under the circumstances of not using any abilities and sealing off the second inner mansion, his victory was half and half.
He contributed the few white bone secret techniques he obtained from burning the Netherworld Candle to the Dao Development Stage, obtaining more than ten thousand techniques, but there was still a distance to the thirty thousand techniques needed to unlock the fourth level of the Dao Development Stage …
These things were scattered all over the course of time.
But the most important goal was to find the lost building of the Cloud Top Palace, which Jiang Wang wanted to find, but he still could not find it.
In this half a month, he had found the opportunity to go to all the places that Feng Ming had the authority to go. But he did not find anything.
Compared to the Ethereal Hall and Lingxiao Pavilion, which were easy to obtain, this Azure Cloud Pavilion had already taken too much time.
The State of Yong was not a place to stay for long. Even if he cultivated here, he could not relax. After all, his current identity was only that of a Soaring Dragon Realm disciple of the Creek Cloud Sword Sect. He had to be careful not to reveal any strength that exceeded his cultivation level.
"I have to find a way to enter the core secret area and check out the forbidden areas of the sect …" Jiang Wang thought and pondered silently.
His current status was that of an official disciple of the Azure Cloud Pavilion. He was valued by Feng Yue and was close to Feng Ming. His performance was also outstanding. In just half a month, he had almost become a core disciple.
However, this identity was still not enough for him to freely enter the core secret area of the Azure Cloud Pavilion.
And for a very long time, his current identity could be considered to have come to an end. Without the Feng and Chi bloodlines, the one who fought at the peak was the only one with an outside surname in the Qingyun Pavilion. That Zong Shou who was not surnamed Zong was still really young …
Normal methods wouldn't work, and he didn't have that much time to "struggle" in a mere Azure Cloud Pavilion. If he had the time, he could wait until he established the Saint Tower and became an expert of the Outer Tower before coming back to take it by force. It might even be faster.
If they were to take the risk, they would need to carefully weigh the strength of the Azure Cloud Pavilion.
Feng Ming was proud of being a disciple of a famous sect, and his ambitions were loftier than the heavens. However, the sects of Yong had nothing to boast about. The Azure Cloud Pavilion wasn't even a fart compared to a true famous sect.
As long as the Azure Cloud Pavilion had a God Descending expert, they wouldn't be so inferior to the Weining Marquis Manor.
The Sect Leader of the Azure Cloud Pavilion was only at the peak of the Outer Tower. Zong Shou and Feng Yue were only two Outer Towers. The other three Zong Shou couldn't exceed the Outer Tower. Which was why there were at most five Outer Tower experts in the entire Azure Cloud Pavilion.
From Feng Yue's actions, there might be even less. That was because he was obviously interested in the position of Sect Leader. This meant that his current cultivation wasn't too low among the higher-ups of the Azure Cloud Pavilion.
Using the five Outer Tower experts as an example, once their tracks were exposed, would they be able to escape?
"Songhai!" An affectionate shout rang out from afar, causing Jiang Wang to stop and think.
Just by hearing the voice, he knew who it was.
Chi Lu of the Four Great Sects of the Azure Cloud Pavilion.
Before this, he had discussed sword techniques with the disciples of the Azure Cloud Pavilion.
To be valued in a foreign place, it was impossible to just rely on flattery. One had to display one's own worth. Helping Feng Ming in the Weining Marquis Manor was a display, but that credit was taken by Feng Ming himself. The Azure Cloud Pavilion didn't know the value of Yu Songhai.
Which was why when they were discussing sword techniques, he purposely displayed some of his insights, easily convincing the disciples who were discussing with him and winning their respect.
What he didn't expect was that the discussion would spread to the ears of Chi Lu. It was said that his sword path ideals were similar, making him really happy. From then on, he viewed Jiang Wang in a new light.
"Sir Zong Shou." Jiang Wang smiled as he welcomed him.
No matter how he felt, a disciple of the Azure Cloud Pavilion had to be respectful to Zong Shou.
"Haiz, I said long ago that we are friends, so there is no need to be so polite!"
Chi Lu was around fifty years old. He liked to wear robes with long sleeves fluttering in the wind. He gave off an unrestrained aura and wasn't very polite.
Walking down from the mountain, he grabbed Jiang Wang's hand and walked to the side, "That sword move from last time, accompany me to study it."
Of course, Jiang Wang didn't want to study any sword moves with him. It wasn't that Chi Lu's sword techniques were useless. On the contrary, this person's sword techniques were really outstanding and he had his own intuition. He also had some inspiration for Jiang Wang's sword path.
However, Jiang Wang couldn't display his understanding. He had to pay attention to his own 'talent' and control it to a level that Chi Lu would praise while not exceeding his identity as Yu Songhai. It was really difficult.
The harder it was to hide in front of a sword path expert.
Jiang Wang didn't want Chi Lu to see through him just because of a casual remark he made about the Dao of the Sword after hiding for so long. He had always tried to avoid it.
"Senior Brother Feng Ming is looking for me for something …" Jiang Wang purposely said in a difficult manner.
"Don't worry." Chi Lu didn't even turn his head, "When I came, I arranged for him to do something. He won't disturb us in a short time."
Jiang Wang, "…"
The relationship between the Feng and Chi bloodlines was really weird. The competition between them was really obvious, but they were also really close. Maybe it had to do with the intermarriage between the two bloodlines.
For example, if Chi Lu casually asked him to do something, Feng Ming would have no choice but to do it. It wasn't because of Chi Lu's identity, but because he was Feng Ming's senior and both of them were related by blood.
He couldn't reject and could only face it.
He pulled himself together and discussed sword techniques with Chi Lu as if he was treading on thin ice, and he won praise again. Jiang Wang sighed in relief, and he felt even more exhausted than when he had fought against someone with a sword.
"Your sword path talent is really not bad."
On the peak of the mountain that they often went to, Chi Lu looked at Jiang Wang in admiration, praising, "Although there are some areas that you don't understand deeply enough, you are limited by your master and your horizons aren't wide enough. Your talent can't be hidden, and I have high hopes for your future. "
"Sir Zong Shou praises me too much," Chi Lu told Jiang Wang to be more casual, but Jiang Wang still followed the rules and was really polite.
"Your sword technique really surprises me. I probably won't be able to reach it in my life."
Chi Lu smiled reservedly, obviously very proud of his swordsmanship.
However, he suddenly sighed, "Unfortunately, I don't have a son. I don't know who to pass down my skills to!"
He looked at Jiang Wang, his hint was really obvious.
Jiang Wang, "…"
You still want me to call you father? One sword from me and you won't have it anymore, do you believe it?
He was helpless, but on the surface he said, "Sir Zong Shou is at your prime, if you want to leave a bloodline, you just need to spend some time, and eight or ten won't be a problem."
"Cultivators like us have to fight every day, where would we have time to bother about family matters?"
Chi Lu's face was really solemn.
Jiang Wang acted dumb, but he didn't want to waste any more time, directly going straight to the point, "Songhai, after this period of time, we understand one another. I want to take you in as my godson, are you willing? "
