Chapter 265: The Moon Goddess's Impulse

Cheng Jiao thought of the panel he was carrying.

Life is like a game of chess. How can he be sure that he is not a chess piece of the creator of the panel?

"Miss Moon Goddess has given a brilliant explanation. The world is like a chess game. It is hard to predict. One wrong move can lead to a complete loss."

At this moment, Yue Shen looked at Cheng Jiao, feeling as if she had met a close friend and having the urge to pour out her heart.

But the Moon Goddess knew that this was just her illusion, an illusion influenced by her inner demons.

"Sir, I wonder if the Moon Goddess would be so kind as to invite you to have a chat."

The Moon Goddess' voice was once again as ethereal and cold as before.

However, to Cheng Jiao, it sounded like some alluring and confusing sounds, which made him think about something else.

"No, I have something else to do."

The Moon Goddess said in a mournful tone, "Does the Master dislike me?"

Cheng Jiao couldn't quite handle the Moon Goddess in this state.

"Well, it's true."

The Moon Goddess bit her teeth secretly. She had already made it clear, so why was Cheng Jiao still like this?

Could it be that what happened that night made Cheng Jiao wary of her?

But only she knows what happened in between.

In the eyes of others, even Cheng Jiao himself, she was just jealous of Yan Fei and wanted to seduce Cheng Jiao.

It just didn't work.

She just didn't believe that a lustful man like Cheng Jiao would turn a blind eye to a beautiful and noble woman who came right to his door.

The Moon Goddess hesitated for a moment and asked: "Sir, are you free tonight?"

Cheng Jiao smiled and asked, "Miss Yueshen, what's this?"

The Moon God gritted his teeth and said, "What happened that night was the Moon God's fault. The Moon God wants to hold a banquet to make amends."

Cheng Jiao wanted to laugh. The Moon Goddess failed to seduce him once and wanted to do it again.

How deep was the hatred and resentment towards Yan Fei that she was so humble as to let him pass by at night...

"can."

He wanted to see whether Yue Shen would continue to show him movies this time or prepare for a real fight.

In Xianyang, with his current strength, there is nothing to worry about.

If possible, he wanted to capture the Moon Goddess as soon as possible, even if he had to use the last Dark Contract Scroll.

In this way, except for Donghuang Taiyi, basically all the people in the Yin-Yang School are his people.

The Moon Goddess breathed a sigh of relief.

She smiled softly, "The Moon Goddess is waiting for you in Baijia Palace."

After saying this, the Moon Goddess turned around and left gracefully.

It was as if the person who had just whispered to let Cheng Jiao go over in the middle of the night was not her.

Cheng Jiao looked at Yueshen's slender back with a smile. He didn't mind having such good fortune and such a sister-in-law at all. The more the better.

The Moon Goddess could sense that Cheng Jiao was staring at her.

Her beautiful eyes were half closed.

The reason why she wanted Cheng Jiao to come was to solve her inner demons.

With her understanding of Yin-Yang magic and her own Taoist magic, she came up with some ideas through deduction, with a very high success rate.

The person who tied the bell must be the one to untie it, and Cheng Jiao is the key link.

The Moon Goddess knelt alone in the main hall, sipping tea quietly and calculating over and over in her mind.

I suddenly thought of Cheng Jiao carrying something that looked like a square box today.

She accidentally used her mental power to take a look and noticed nothing.

I thought it was Cheng Jiao's mental power that blocked her from seeing.

But if you think about it carefully, the feeling of being swallowed by mud like a river or sea does not seem to be man-made.

what is it then?

The Moon Goddess glanced at the box-shaped object in the hall.

When my eyes fell on an antique bronze box used to store spices, my heart skipped a beat.

"The Seven Azure Dragons, the Bronze Treasure Box!"

The Moon Goddess uttered these eight words word by word.

Suddenly, I understood what Cheng Jiao meant when he said he had something to say.

The Moon Goddess was in deep thought. The Qin royal family was in charge of a bronze treasure box, and the Yin-Yang family naturally knew about it.

At the same time, she also heard Donghuang Taiyi mention in passing that this bronze treasure box was kept in the hands of an extremely powerful person.

The person who can be called the most powerful person is Donghuang Taiyi, who is at least at the level of a celestial being.

Now this bronze treasure box is in Cheng Jiao's hands...

The light in the Moon Goddess's eyes flickered.

Donghuang Taiyi had not told her and Yan Fei about his plan to get the bronze treasure box, but she could sense that it was not that Donghuang Taiyi didn't care, but that the time was not right.

Can she try to crack the secret of the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon from Cheng Jiao?

Donghuang Taiyi once said that in order to open the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon, one needs noble blood, the Magic Sound Box, and an opportunity.

The Moon Goddess frowned slightly. She and Yan Fei both had noble blood. The Fantasy Sound Box had been lost long ago and was suspected to be in the Mo family.

But she had no idea what that opportunity was.

When Cheng Jiao returned home, he happened to see Mi Lian coming out of the gate.

"Son."

Mi Lian bowed to Cheng Jiao.

Cheng Jiao smiled and said, "You are the daughter of Lord Changping and the student of Li Wuyan Lingji. There is no need to be so polite."

Mi Lian said softly: "Father once said that if you are polite when you are outside, you will not be disliked by others."

Cheng Jiao nodded slightly, Changping Jun’s family education is also good.

"Cheng Jiao."

Lu Niangrong called out from behind.

Hearing the familiar voice, Mi Lian looked over and was startled. It was Niang Rong.

Lu Niangrong naturally also saw Mi Lian.

"Mi Lian? Why are you here too?"

Cheng Jiao could see that Lu Niangrong seemed to be acquainted with Mi Lian.

"You... know each other?"

Niang Rong nodded and said as a matter of course: "Yeah, I don't have many friends in Xianyang, Lian'er is one of them. Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for several months."

Mi Lian whispered, "Niang Rong, are you looking for Cheng Jiao?"

Niang Rong shook her head: "I'm here to look for Meng Niang. What about you? You're not here to look for Cheng Jiao, are you? I'm telling you, be careful with this guy. He has a lot of women. Don't get in touch with him too much."

Cheng Jiao grinned and said, "Never mind, just take it as a compliment."

He didn't stay here any longer and went straight to the mansion.

Seeing Cheng Jiao leave, Mi Lian also let go.

Her relationship with Niangrong was pretty good. If her father hadn't asked her not to have frequent contact with Niangrong in the past year, she wouldn't have not seen Niangrong for several months.

Mi Lian said with some distress: "My father intends for me to marry Cheng Jiao.

Niang Rong's eyes widened.

"Marry him? You'll be unhappy!"

There was a hint of fear on Mi Lian's little face.

"No... no way, Li Wu and Teacher Yan Lingji said that Cheng Jiao is very good..."

Niang Rong lamented, "Lian'er, think about it, she is Cheng Jiao's woman, how could she say bad things about Cheng Jiao? Didn't you see the women in Cheng Jiao's courtyard? Meng Niang was forced to stay in the mansion by him, so I had to come here to study medicine."

Mi Lian's pretty face turned pale and she felt a little sad. "This... Father said Cheng Jiao was smart and simple. You must have seen it wrong."

Niang Rong scratched her head and asked, "Aren't you afraid of being bullied?"

Mi Lian pursed her lips and said, "Probably not. Yan Lingji and Li Wujie are very kind to me."

What she didn't say was that she didn't dare go against her father's wishes.

Niang Rong sighed and said, "Forget it. If you are bullied, come to me and I will help you... I will help you file a complaint!"

She knew that Mi Lian had a gentle personality and would probably endure any grievances silently.

It seems that she cannot defeat Cheng Jiao, but she can go and complain!

"By the way, you haven't gotten married yet, so why are you here?"

Mi Lian stopped thinking about it and smiled, "I came here to learn dancing. Yan Lingji and Li Wu are very good at dancing. My father asked me to learn from them for a while."

Niang Rong curled her lips and said, "I think the intention of letting you learn dancing is fake, and the intention of letting you have more contact with Cheng Jiao is real."

She was older than Mi Lian and knew that few of these adults were kind-hearted.

Mi Lian was a little shy. She also noticed this and felt a little embarrassed when Niang Rong pointed it out.

"It's just, it's just learning to dance, maybe you're thinking too much."

Niang Rong clapped her hands when she saw the carriage from Changping Jun's mansion approaching.

"That's because I'm overthinking. I'll go in first. See you tomorrow."

Niangrong waved goodbye to Lianyi and went into Chengjiao's mansion alone.

Ali glanced at the lively Lu Niangrong, didn't care, and continued practicing sword.

She wanted to open up her Ren and Du meridians as soon as possible and become a second-rate master. This way, she would have the confidence to ask Sister Jingwei to talk to the young master on her behalf, as she was not a child anymore.

Mi Lian got on the carriage with something on his mind, looking a little worried.

But I felt a little relieved when I thought that my father would not harm me.

But he had made up his mind to ask Li Wuyan Lingji and the sister named Jingwei more about Cheng Jiao's affairs so that he could be mentally prepared.

If it really doesn't work, a hint of determination appeared in Mi Lianshui's eyes.

She is essentially different from Niangrong. Niangrong dares to love and hate, and has her own opinions.

She is the type who can compromise, but she also has her own opinions. If it is not possible, she will decisively save herself and will not trap herself in the kang as Niangrong imagined.

She silently drew a bottom line for herself. She didn't care how many women Cheng Jiao had. As long as he was a good person, she would listen to her father and marry Cheng Jiao.

The so-called marriage.

She can accept her fate, but she doesn't want to accept it without any bottom line.

If things are impossible, she can choose to die.

Mi Lian stared at the people coming and going outside the car window, lost in thought.
Cheng Jiao walked to the backyard, and for a moment, he didn't know where to put the bronze box.

Forget it. If you are in doubt, look for Jingwei.

Jingwei, who was wearing casual home clothes, saw Chengjiao coming in quietly, and her fair face turned slightly red.

Whenever Cheng Jiao came over like this secretly, she would inevitably be played with by him.

Seeing Cheng Jiao carrying a box wrapped in cloth, I immediately began to guess what Cheng Jiao was looking for. I hoped it wasn't too excessive.

Cheng Jiao took out the bronze treasure box and placed it on the table.

"Jingwei, I have to trouble you to take good care of this box for me. Don't lose it."

Jingwei held Xiaoyan, who had just fallen asleep, in his arms and whispered, "What is this?"

She still thought that there might be something in it that Cheng Jiao had mentioned to her before, something that would add to the fun between men and women.

Cheng Jiao did not hide the fact that Jing Wei was not only in love with him, but was also bound by him. There was nothing to hide about this matter.

It would be interesting if Jingwei misunderstood and thought that it was another weird thing he took out and dealt with it at will.

"This is one of the seven bronze treasure boxes of the Blue Dragon Seven Stars."

Jingwei was stunned and looked carefully. It was exactly the same as what he had seen before.

I thought it was just an ordinary box, but I never expected it to be a bronze treasure box related to the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon.

"Sir, this treasure box..."

There was worry in Jingwei's eyes. Now the rumor in the martial arts world was that Cheng Jiao had cracked the secret of the Seven Stars of the Blue Dragon and gained their power.

If the news that Cheng Jiao was holding the bronze treasure box were to leak out at this time, it would probably cause an uproar.

Those who originally did not believe it, as well as those who were skeptical, would all flock over.

Cheng Jiao smiled. Almost the moment Jingwei opened his mouth, he knew what Jingwei was worried about.

"No problem. The only people who know about this are my brother, uncle, you and me."

Jingwei nodded and said no more.

Carefully place the treasure box in a secret compartment in the house.

Seeing Jingwei put away the bronze treasure box, Cheng Jiao asked, "I remember that when you were on a mission, you also got a bronze treasure box. Do you remember?"

Jingwei shook his head: "That's fake, it was made in a blacksmith shop and is worth one gold coin."

Cheng Jiao laughed: "It's very valuable."

Jingwei put Xiaoyaner on the small bed and snuggled in Chengjiao's arms.

She was very grateful to the nameless swordsman for his guidance, which taught her to live for herself and for the people she loved.

Let her meet Cheng Jiao, a man she likes and is happy with, and also a man worthy of entrusting her life to.

Silently, Jingwei kissed Chengjiao's lips.

Cheng Jiao enjoyed Jingwei's rare initiative.

The two of them felt each other's thoughtfulness and tenderness, and almost melted into one.

After a long time, Jingwei let go of Chengjiao, with a blush on her pretty face.

He whispered, "Before you came back, Bai Luan left. Let me tell you."

Cheng Jiao nodded: "I know."

Jing Wei said helplessly: "She is a genuine Tian Ren realm, aren't you afraid that she will bear a grudge against you?"

Cheng Jiao smiled and said, "Do you think she looks like she's holding a grudge?"

Jingwei was speechless. Not only did she not want to do that, but it seemed that she had such intentions towards Cheng Jiao, which made her puzzled.

Cheng Jiao thought for a moment, took out a small jade bottle from his arms, and poured out a pill of Huiling Pill.

I briefly explained to Jingwei the effect of the elixir.

"Take one first and try it to see if it works for you and whether you can absorb and use spiritual energy."

Jingwei held the precious pill in her little hands.

Hesitantly asked, "Wouldn't it be a waste to just try it out?"

Cheng Jiao personally took the Huiling Pill in Jingwei's little hand and put it into Jingwei's little mouth.

"It's a waste, but I still have a lot."

In the second-level lucky wheel, the Soul-Restoring Pill is one of the easiest items to draw.

Basically, if you draw it a dozen times, a soul-restoring pill will appear.

In just less than half a month, he had already drawn three or four hundred times, and still had twelve Soul-Restoring Pills, and accidentally drew a Marrow-Cleansing Pill that could improve his cultivation aptitude to a certain extent.

He was not quite sure about the specific effect of this Marrow Cleansing Pill, but he thought it must be more valuable than the Soul Restoring Pill.

Jingwei quickly absorbed and controlled some of the spiritual power in the elixir, and the rest could be absorbed slowly, so there was no need to rush.

"So strong."

He casually released a wisp of sword energy, leaving a sword mark on the hard wood.

Jingwei could clearly feel that the sword energy containing spiritual power was at least twice as strong as the sword energy released by internal force. He needed to practice it to grasp the specific situation.

Cheng Jiao smiled: "Not bad. Are there any signs of a breakthrough?"

Jingwei said apologetically: "No."

After a slight pause, Jingwei explained: "It is even more difficult to break through the Heavenly Man Realm. It involves the spirit of the Tao soul. I have accumulated too little and need more insights."
