I Outworked the Entire Cultivation World

Chapter 696 - 643: Old Friends of the Kong Family

Sponsored

On the crisscrossing steps of Biya Island, Kong Wengong, dressed like a peacock with splendid clothes and complete accessories, impatiently waved his iron fan.

"Where’s Third Sister! We agreed to meet here, where is she? Where is she?"

Kong Wenrang, dressed simply in white with ink patterns, followed behind. Although they were brothers, he stood next to his second brother like a scholar-servant.

"Second Brother, don’t worry, Third Sister must have been delayed by something."

Kong Wengong closed the folding fan and tapped it on his palm, "If it weren’t for Eldest Brother going into seclusion to impact the Nascent Soul stage, he would handle this. He’s better at persuading people. I really don’t want to bring Third Sister back to the Kong Family."

Among the three Kong brothers, Eldest Brother Kong Wenliang had already begun impacting the Nascent Soul stage, Kong Wengong was now at the peak of the Golden Core stage, just a step away from forming a Nascent Soul, while Third Sister Kong Wenjian and Fourth Brother Kong Wenrang were both in the late-stage Golden Core.

Kong Wenrang sighed, "But now the Kong Family is indeed different from before. Women can also enter schools to read the sages’ books and cultivate Vast Righteous Qi. Father only wants Third Sister to come home for a visit, not necessarily to serve the Kong Family."

Kong Wengong sneered, "If the Kong Family really changed its corrupt ways, would Kong Jingyan have run away? It’s all superficial..."

Just as Kong Wengong was speaking, he suddenly saw a woman in white descending the steps against the rushing crowd. Standing below and looking up, he was first captivated by her figure, feeling a burst of Immortal Spirit Qi that came from her, as if she was unstained by mud.

When he saw the woman’s face clearly, Kong Wengong was momentarily dumbfounded, then greatly alarmed!

"Hanging herself on the southeast branch!!"

Kong Wengong shouted in astonishment, pulling Kong Wenrang over to show him.

"Second Brother, let go. This is too rude!"

Kong Wenrang struggled to save his clothes, raising his eyes to look over, also stunned, as some unpleasant memories surged to mind.

"A friend from afar..."

"Although far, must be destroyed!"

"A man should strengthen himself..."

"Adorning oneself before the mirror!"

"The wind is bleak, the Yi waters cold, the warrior..."

"The warrior hangs herself on the southeast branch!"

Those clear cries echoed in Kong Wenrang’s mind, a nightmare from the Wind and Cloud Meeting of encountering Jiang Yuebai.

But, to his shame, it was Jiang Yuebai who later enabled Kong Wenrang, through the phrase "hanging herself on the southeast branch," to out-poem many in the clan, and drive people to vomiting blood.

It never failed, extremely effective!

If not for his eldest brother’s timely enlightenment, he would have gone down a crooked path point of no return.

Therefore, the three brothers had a deep impression of Jiang Yuebai.

At Kong Wengong’s shout, Jiang Yuebai heard clearly. Standing high on the steps, she squinted and smiled lightly, sarcastically saying, "Oh~ Eunuch Wenn actually remembers me? It’s been years, and Eunuch Wenn has become even more charming."

"You!"

Kong Wengong gripped his iron fan tightly, gritting his teeth, just about to unleash his fury. Suddenly, a pressure emanated from Jiang Yuebai, making his entire body tense, as if facing a great enemy, choking off his words, and his face flushed red.

Kong Wenrang, seeing this, opened his eyes wide in shock.

Back at the Wind and Cloud Meeting, when they encountered Jiang Yuebai, her cultivation wasn’t even higher than their elder brother’s. And now, it had only been a few years, while their elder brother was in seclusion, impacting the early-stage Nascent Soul, Jiang Yuebai was already at the mid-stage Nascent Soul?

Moreover, her aura was thick, her Spiritual Light bursting, she could even be considered late-stage Nascent Soul.

In recent years, the Heavenly Interference Sect had constantly claimed Jiang Yuebai was in seclusion, and there’d been no more glorious feats from her in the Earth Spiritual Realm. Everyone believed she was merely a flash-in-the-pan genius, gradually fading.

Kong Wenrang quickly cupped his hands in salute, "Kong Family’s Kong Wenrang, greets Senior."

Kong Wenrang’s temperament was humble, not feeling ashamed to be surpassed in cultivation, but Kong Wengong’s face couldn’t hold up; still, facing true strength, he had to bow and salute.

"Greet... Greet Senior!!"

Jiang Yuebai softly responded, unobtrusively retracting her pressure. She didn’t come to trouble the two of them today; the issue back then had been with the Great Elder of the Kong Family causing her and her master troubles, while the competition in the Secret Realm was mere rivalry.

"Why are you two here?"

Kong Wengong remained silent, with a stern face. Kong Wenrang respectfully responded, "To bring our Third Sister back to the Kong Family."

Jiang Yuebai nodded, recalling hearing someone mention that Kong Wenrang had a Third Sister, who fled the Kong Family during the Wind and Cloud Meeting, rumored to be good at cultivating Vast Righteous Qi.

"Just one question, where is that woman in your Kong Family who’s rumored to be the reincarnation of a saint now?"

At these words, Kong Wengong exchanged a look with Kong Wenrang, who smiled wryly, "Second Brother, these are public matters, nothing difficult to say. Senior, you might not know since you just left seclusion. Junior Sister Jingyan hasn’t had it easy in the Kong Family over the years, though she’s been formidable. It’s thanks to her efforts that women in the family can study and cultivate."

"Not too long ago, Great Elder Huaide wanted Junior Sister Jingyan to invite a husband into the house, leading to some dissatisfaction between them. In anger, she left, saying she was off to relax, with no set return. In truth, the Clan Leader has reprimanded Great Elder Huaide – it was all a misunderstanding."

Jiang Yuebai nodded slightly, realizing Mr. Shen had been reincarnated into the Kong Family, now called Kong Jingyan.

Jian, meditation, what a fitting name, much better than having everyone refer to her as a saint reincarnate.

And this Great Elder Huaide was undoubtedly the same one who greedily sought her master’s Chaos Erosion Spiritual Fruit back then, truly brainless.

For family growth, is procreation the only way?

Look at the Zhuge Family, which has many non-native cultivators in the clan and yet remains the top cultivation family in the Nine Rivers Realm without hindrance.

Adopt a husband?

It’s amazing he even thought of it!

Kong Jingyan didn’t write poems cursing him for posterity, that’s already giving him face.

If it were me, I’d throw him onto an evil male cultivator’s bed, let him personally experience the joys of childbirth!

"Second Brother, Third Brother!"

A female cultivator in blue attire, with two writing brushes hanging from her waist and a late-stage Golden Core cultivation, approached from below, her smile bright and welcoming as she saw her two brothers from the Kong Family.

Upon seeing Jiang Yuebai with them, Wenn Jian slowed her steps, frowning in confusion.

Kong Wenrang quickly introduced Jiang Yuebai to Wenn Jian and vice versa.

It was only then, seeing Wenn Jian, that Jiang Yuebai recalled that when she and Xie Jingshan went to the Extraordinary People Country, they encountered the Fang family’s fox demon concubine and child being pursued by two female cultivators from Feiyan Pavilion – one of whom was this very Wenn Jian.

At that time, Jiang Yuebai had disguised herself as an Extraordinary Person; Wenn Jian only found her familiar now, but did not recognize her.

Upon hearing Kong Wenrang mention Jiang Yuebai’s name, Wenn Jian appeared both surprised and excited.

"So the Senior is True Monarch Wangshu from the Heavenly Interference Sect who, a few days ago, single-handedly destroyed the Three Elements Sect’s Outer Sea Thirteen Islands. Junior Wenn Jian greets the Senior!"

"What?! Who did you say was destroyed?"

Kong Wengong, who had a dark face the whole time, was utterly astonished, dropping his fan onto his foot.

Wenn Jian quickly explained the recent events in the Outer Sea succinctly; Jiang Yuebai’s feat had already spread throughout Feiyan Pavilion. If not for the personal testament of the two Flower Gods, no one would have believed it.

Feeling less defiant, Kong Wengong suddenly became much more obedient, an awkward smile spreading across his face, no longer keeping up the airs.

Wenn Jian was excited, "True Monarch Wangshu, please accompany me to the mountain peak. Our Pavilion Master, after coming out of seclusion yesterday, specifically instructed his subordinates that if you are sighted, to warmly invite you to stay at Feiyan Pavilion for a few days until after he meets with Junior Sister Jingyan; then, he would see you immediately."

"Kong Jingyan is also currently in Feiyan Pavilion?" Jiang Yuebai asked.

Kong Wengong and Kong Wenrang exchanged a surprised look.

Wenn Jian nodded, "Yes, she came to find our Pavilion Master herself."

Jiang Yuebai’s eyes shifted slightly, sensing that Kong Jingyan might be plotting something significant.

Just right, let’s go see!
