Chapter 125 - Visiting Card (2)

The sword floated in the air and slowly stabbed toward the expert’s forehead with terrifying flames.

“Reporting!”

As this voice sounded, a man who looked like a servant hurried into the hall.

Upon seeing who it was, Venerable Ning Jing frowned slightly. With a wave of her hand, she scattered the sword floating in the air and said indifferently, “What’s the matter?”

The sword was about to pierce through the space between his eyebrows and the terrifying flames were about to reach him, but they disappeared at this moment. As a result, the Yang God expert who was bound by the chains suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. He felt like he had survived a calamity.

When the servant who had just entered heard this, he bowed slightly and said respectfully to the throne, “Venerable.”

“Grandmaster Wu Shuang has returned from Cang City. She said that she has something to ask of you.”

Her long, white fingers tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the throne. Venerable Ning Jing seemed to be deep in thought. After a while, she said calmly, “Let her in.”

The servant received the order and turned to retreat out of the hall. A moment later, Wu Shuang hurried in.

Her gaze swept over the tall figure bound by chains in the center of the hall. It seemed as if a thought occurred to her, and her eyes flashed.

However, her gaze did not stay on the other party for long. Instead, she bowed towards the throne and said, “Greetings, Lord Venerable.”

A faint smile appeared on Venerable Ning Jing’s face as she said, “Wu Shuang, weren’t you in Cang City? Why were you in such a hurry to come back? Is there something important?”

A smile crossed Wu Shuang’s face when she heard the voice from the throne.

She took out the visiting card that Wang Yi had given her previously and held it in her palms. She said, “Venerable Wang Yi from Cang City will be bringing his wife to Langya County City tomorrow. This is the visiting card that he wrote for you.”

The corners of Venerable Ning Jing’s mouth curled up slightly. She stretched out her jade-like palm and waved it gently. Then, the visiting card in Wu Shuang’s hand was absorbed by her.

When Venerable Ning Jing sensed the Nine Suns True Qi from the words, a different kind of smile flashed across her flawless face.

It also made her mood, which had been very bad because of the Yang God Race for the past few days, instantly improve.

She couldn’t help but mutter, “Fellow Daoist Wang is really meticulous.”

Although her voice was soft, Wu Shuang could hear it clearly.

A look of confusion flashed across her eyes. She could not understand why Venerable Ning Jing called Venerable Wang Yi “meticulous” when they had yet to meet.

Perhaps because Venerable Ning Jing was in an extremely good mood, she looked at Wu Shuang’s current appearance and said with a smile, “Do you know why Fellow Daoist Wang asked you to bring back this visiting card?”

When Wu Shuang heard this, the confusion in her eyes deepened. What other intentions could have been hidden in this visiting card?

Although she couldn’t figure it out, she still probed, “I think Venerable Wang Yi feels that this is more formal. This is also a form of respect for Lord Venerable.”

Upon hearing Wu Shuang’s words, Venerable Ning Jing couldn’t help but shake her head. She smiled and said, “This is just one of the meanings.”

After saying that, she looked at Wu Shuang and asked again, “Did you feel anything unusual from this visiting card?”

Wu Shuang knew the answer to this question. After all, she had already sensed it when Wang Yi handed her the visiting card.

Now that Venerable Ning Jing had asked, she did not hesitate and said, “I did sense it. The words contain the power of extreme yang.”

Venerable Ning Jing was not surprised by Wu Shuang’s words. She stretched out her finger and gently tapped on the visiting card.

Boom!

The phantoms of the nine suns which contained boundless divine might were directly drawn out from Wang Yi’s words. Then, they appeared in the void of the hall, emitting a supreme power that seemed to be able to burn all filth and evil in the world.

It caused the temperature in the hall to rise by dozens of degrees, and waves of heat rose in the air.

However, the power that overflowed from the sun phantoms shone in the hall, causing the restrained Yang God expert to roar in pain. The black fog on his body became much thinner.

The corners of Wu Shuang’s mouth twitched as she felt the terrifying power emanating from the sun phantoms. She knew that the power contained in the visiting card was very strong, but she did not expect it to be so strong.

Along the way, she actually carried such a terrifying thing back. If the power of the visiting card had accidentally been unleashed midway, she, a top grandmaster, would have probably been burned to ashes in an instant.

She would have become the shortest-lived top expert in the Langya Domain.

Venerable Ning Jing directly ignored the Yang God expert’s roar and stared at the sun phantoms in the void. Then, she said indifferently, “As for Fellow Daoist Wang’s second intention, I’m afraid that he had also intended to use this visiting card to protect you.”

“After all, the beasts have just suffered heavy losses in Cang City. It’s very likely that a supreme expert will go out to hunt human experts to take revenge on us.”

“With this item on you, even if a top-notch beast king attacks you on your journey, it can still ensure your safety, let alone if you encounter beasts of the same level as you.”

When Wu Shuang heard this, she nodded with a stiff expression.

She suddenly felt that his brain was not working well enough. She actually did not understand such a simple meaning.

Seeing that Wu Shuang understood, Venerable Ning Jing continued, “As for Fellow Daoist Wang’s final intention…”

When Wu Shuang heard this, there was a hint of confusion in her stiff expression.

Was there another intention behind this card?

If it weren’t for the fact that she was in front of the Venerable, she really wanted to complain. If there was anything, could he just say it directly? Why did he have to go through so much trouble?!

This was just a visiting card. At most, the materials used were a little precious as it was a letter personally written by a Venerable. However, why were there so many twists and turns?

Halfway through her sentence, Venerable Ning Jing extended a finger and pointed at the nine sun phantoms.

Boom!

A burst of extreme Yang power was drawn out by this finger. Then it was as if this power had transformed into a long sword burning with terrifying flames.

As Venerable Ning Jing’s fingertips moved, the sword also moved in the void.

Swoosh!

Finally, Venerable Ning Jing’s fingertips landed on the Yang God expert, and her sword slashed at him from high above in the sky.

As soon as the sword made contact with the other party, it turned into an endless sea of fire that enveloped the nine-meter-tall figure.

Roar!

In the center of the flames, the Yang God expert, who was constantly being burned, was in so much pain that his facial features had already begun to distort. He let out roars of pain like that of a ferocious beast.

At this moment, Venerable Ning Jing continued, “This is Fellow Daoist Wang’s final meaning.”

Wu Shuang was a little confused and did not know what this scene had to do with the last layer of meaning. She could not help but ask, “I’m slow-witted. Please enlighten me, Venerable.”

When Venerable Ning Jing heard this, she pointed at the Yang God Race expert who was still screaming in pain and said indifferently, “Do you know who he is?”
