Chapter 1347 This Talent Can Be Flexible
"What nonsense?!"
Jun Linyuan habitually snorted again, then realized what he was doing, his Adam's apple bobbing as he forcibly swallowed the rest of his cold snort, and instead sneered:
"Fellow Daoist Jiang is truly extraordinary. Even a prodigy like Junior Brother Wang admires you so much that he came from afar and bowed down in reverence. It is truly an eye-opener."
He himself was a genius and had seen many geniuses, but he had never seen anyone like Jiang Han, who could command the respect and fear of geniuses of the same level as soon as he broke through.
To be honest, he admired Jiang Han to some extent. The boy had many merits and was extremely loyal to the Sword Sect. His only flaw was that he was greedy, arrogant, and sometimes unreasonable.
But this is all normal. Before he met Jiang Han, he was also greedy, arrogant, and unreasonable.
Look at these disciples who have passed through tribulations. Who among them doesn't have one or two flaws, big or small? Who among them hasn't looked down on everyone else?
But Jiang Han's mistake was that he had offended him today, making him very unhappy. Even if he couldn't take action for the time being, he still wanted to have a good verbal exchange, and no one could persuade him otherwise; he was determined to do it!
"Junior Brother Wang, instead of doing this, you might as well just become Jiang Han's sworn brother and switch allegiance to the Sword Sect."
Wang Yanshi's face darkened, and his heart sank.
That guy surnamed Jun is shameless. He was angered by Jiang Han's beating, and now he's bullying this junior. He's really a petty person.
But he couldn't say that, so he could only awkwardly reply:
"Senior Brother Jun is joking. I was born into the Thousand Machines Pavilion and will remain there for the rest of my life."
Even if I admire Fellow Daoist Jiang, it's only out of respect for his character; I would never harbor any other thoughts.
Jun Linyuan subconsciously wanted to hum, but he held back. He chuckled and was about to speak when he was interrupted.
"Fellow Daoist Jun, you'd better say less. You're all alone. If you offend us all, we'll have no choice but to take action against you."
Gu Chenyin is usually quiet, but when she does speak, it's infuriating.
"Of course, if you really can't hold back, let's just have a fight right now. Fellow Daoist Jiang and I will join forces, and with Fellow Daoist Meng also joining forces, even if we can't keep you here, we can still drive you out of this place. What do you say?"
He seemed to be asking Jun Linyuan a question, but he was actually looking at Jiang Han.
Jiang Han calmly nodded: "I have no objection."
"I don't have any objection either."
Meng Qinghong said, "Rather than being provoked by Fellow Daoist Jun after entering the palace, it would be better to ask him to leave now."
Seeing this, Yun Fengzhu wanted to join in, but after thinking about it, he held back and advised:
"Fellow Daoist Jun, the inheritance is of utmost importance. Stop talking nonsense. It would be a great loss if we were driven out of here because of some quarrel."
"You, you..."
Jun Linyuan's expression changed, turning from pale to green.
He was a little angry and a little aggrieved. He never expected that these people would join forces to put pressure on him.
They used to check and balance each other, with none of them giving way to the others. What's going on now? Are these three going to join forces?
Just then, he heard Yun Fengzhu's voice transmission: "Fellow Daoist Jun, don't lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of a small thing. As long as you obtain the inheritance, are you afraid of not being able to defeat Jiang Han?"
"Once you inherit this Immortal Emperor's legacy and your strength increases significantly, you'll have plenty of opportunities to get revenge."
"At that time, let alone a junior like Jiang Han, you could easily suppress Meng Qinghong and the others with a mere flick of your palm. No one will be a match for you!"
These words make perfect sense, and at least Jun Linyuan found them very pleasing to the ear.
Although the inheritance may not necessarily fall into his hands, what if it does?
The heavens follow a path of forty-nine, and man escapes one of those paths. Even in the most hopeless dead end, there is always a glimmer of hope.
If that's the case, who can say for sure that he isn't the lucky one who will inherit the legacy?
Jiang Han has always been so lucky, it's time for his luck to turn around this time.
After thinking it over, Jun Linyuan smiled arrogantly: "It was just a joke. Since you don't want to hear it, then I won't say it."
"Fellow Daoist Jun has misunderstood."
Jiang Han said, "What Fellow Daoist Gu means is that you can speak, but if you speak again, we will not be polite."
"Yes, that's right." Gu Chenyin nodded in agreement. "That's exactly what I meant."
"..."
Jun Linyuan fell silent. He suspected that this kid was deliberately provoking him. In the past, he would have been angry long ago, but he didn't want to be angry now because the timing wasn't right.
After a brief silence, he took a breath and looked at the palace:
"Enough of the small talk, everyone, let's think about how to get in."
Hmph, he's a domineering genius, not a reckless and foolish good-for-nothing. He can bend and stretch; what's a little forbearance for now?!
Once he receives the inheritance, his offensive and defensive strategies will change, and he will surely make these three taste the bitterness of swallowing their anger!
Wang Yanshi felt that the sun was dazzling today, making him feel dizzy.
He wasn't mistaken, was he? That domineering genius Jun Linyuan, who was always extremely arrogant, liked to use his power to suppress others, and never bowed his head to his enemies, actually bowed his head to Jiang Han.
Jun Linyuan is known as the strongest among the geniuses of the lower realm this time, so why would he bow down to Fellow Daoist Jiang, who has just broken through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm?
In the past, if any mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator had dared to speak to him like that, he would have slapped them half to death. He would never have remained silent or even tried to save face.
This situation is so abnormal, so abnormal it's chilling. Something is definitely wrong.
At that moment, Wang Yanshi felt a jolt in his heart and an unbelievable idea came to mind.
Could it be that Jun Linyuan was actually defeated by Jiang Han in the sparring just now?
Upon realizing this, his pupils dilated violently.
If that's really the case, wouldn't that mean that Jiang Han, who is only at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, has suddenly become the strongest among all the geniuses of Xuandao Mountain?!
"Alright, alright, what Fellow Daoist Jun said makes sense. This place is different from other places. There might be time limits or other restrictions. We'd better go in quickly."
After Yun Fengzhu finished speaking, he looked at Gu Chenyin and said, "For safety's sake, we'll have to trouble Fellow Daoist Gu to release a puppet to scout ahead."
"This is simple."
Gu Chenyin didn't mention what had just happened. A flash of light appeared in the Hundred Machine Pouch at her waist, and she released a palm-sized, colorful-winged bird puppet. It flapped its wings a few times, flew around the palace for a moment, and then crashed into the barrier outside the palace.
A flash of white light, and the puppet bird vanished. Gu Chenyin's expression changed, and she said with delight:
"It's alright, you can come in directly..."
Before he could finish speaking, his face suddenly turned pale, and he hurriedly severed his spiritual connection with his hand, speaking rapidly:
"The puppet was attacked. It couldn't see the attacker clearly. The attacker was very fast and even tried to attack the main body through divine sense. But judging from the strength of the divine sense, it should be a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator at the same level as us."
