Chapter 135: Removing the Hidden Danger
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Time went on and on.
In the blink of an eye, three years had passed.
In these three years.
Because of the news that Shen Ruyan and Shen Daoming had reached the Violet Palace Realm one after another, some families and sects that had already begun to alienate the Shen family began to curry favor with the Shen family again, especially after the news that Shen Yuanlong had recovered from his injuries and had advanced further.
Regarding this, the Shen family did not shut the door to these fence-sitters.
However, for those who kicked them when they were down, the Shen family didn’t intend to reconcile.
For example, the Zhang family of Flat Land County.
In the past three years, the Zhang family never took the initiative to apologize. It was as if they had forgotten what they had done.
This time, the Shen family was truly offended.
At this moment, they were waiting for an opportunity. An opportunity to find fault with the Zhang family and make them pay a huge price.
At the same time.
Flying Jade Peak.
In the seclusion room where Jiang Chengxuan was.
Jiang Chengxuan finally opened his eyes slowly.
After three years, he successfully cultivated the Heavenly Calculation Technique to the first level.
At this moment, he was really awe-struck by the power of the Heavenly Calculation Technique.
It was only the first level and the first level that had yet to be perfected, but it could already allow him to see many things that he couldn’t see in the past.
For example, his tribulation, the tribulation of others, and even the tribulation of the entire Flat Land County could not be hidden from his calculations.
He could even vaguely sense the existence of some opportunities.
As long as he wanted to, he could get it easily.
It was not an exaggeration to say that although the current Heavenly Calculation Technique did not increase Jiang Chengxuan’s combat strength, it brought about a qualitative change to his overall ability.
He looked down at his body and saw a faint starlight.
Amidst the starlight, there was a trace of tribulation that was as black as ink, but incomparably tiny.
This meant that this tribulation was very hidden and would not be easily triggered.
However, once it was triggered, it would be life-threatening. With his cultivation, it would probably be very difficult for him to overcome it.
A few words slowly came out of Jiang Chengxuan’s mouth. “Senior Seven Star…”
Then, he did not stay any longer. He stood up and left the cultivation room.
Outside, he saw his Dao companion, Shen Ruyan, sitting quietly at the door of his cultivation room, guarding him.
Clearly, in the years that he had been in seclusion to break through to the Violet Palace Realm and cultivate the Heavenly Calculation Technique, Shen Ruyan had never left.
This realization made Jiang Chengxuan feel sweet inside. He couldn’t help but step forward and reach out to hug Shen Ruyan, who opened her eyes and looked at him.
“Husband, you’re out of seclusion!”
Being suddenly hugged by Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but feel a little shy. She didn’t forget to ask with concern,
“How was it? How was your breakthrough this time?”
“Everything went smoothly.”
Jiang Chengxuan leaned close to her and whispered in her ear gently,
“Wife, it’s been hard on you all these years.”
Shen Ruyan immediately shook her head with a smile.
“Husband, what are you saying?
There’s no need to be so polite between us.”
“You are right.”
Jiang Chengxuan smiled and nodded.
The couple cuddled for a while before separating.
Then, Jiang Chengxuan told her about the harvest of his seclusion all these years.
When Shen Ruyan heard it, she could not help but reveal a look of shock.
Especially the part about the Heavenly Calculation Technique.
Even she could not imagine what kind of opportunity her husband had obtained. Not only could he complete the first two levels of the Heavenly Calculation Technique, but he had also cultivated it to the first level.
However, since Jiang Chengxuan didn’t tell her, she naturally wouldn’t probe further.
There also were some things she did not tell him.
It was not that she was unwilling to tell him, but given the current situation, there was no benefit for him to know. Instead, it would give her a lot of unnecessary burden.
“By the way, Ruyan…”
At this moment, Jiang Chengxuan seemed to have thought of something and couldn’t help but say,
“Now that I’ve already cultivated the Heavenly Calculation Technique to the first level, it’s time to remove the hidden danger that is lurking around us.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a hazy halo suddenly appeared on Jiang Chengxuan’s fingertips.
Then, he stretched out his finger and wiped it on himself and Shen Ruyan.
In the next moment, their heavenly secrets could no longer be seen.
Jiang Chengxuan could clearly see that the faint starlight on his and Shen Ruyan’s bodies was covered by an even more mysterious power, and no aura leaked out.
At the same time.
Starlight Sect.
On a certain mountain peak.
Seven Star, who was looking at the sky and calculating something, was stunned for a moment before frowning.
What’s going on? Why do I feel like the two chess pieces I placed have disappeared? I can’t feel their aura anymore.
As he pondered, a starlight compass appeared in Seven Star’s hand.
As the starlight compass began to spin, a mysterious aura began to appear on its surface.
After a while, Seven Star put away the starlight compass in his hand, and his eyes suddenly became extremely deep.
He said with interest, “Fellow Daoist Mengxue, is this the backup plan you left for your juniors?
Were you already on guard against me?
Or did you see the fate trajectory on them in advance and specially left a backup plan for them?”
On the other side.
Feeling that some hidden danger around her had been removed, Shen Ruyan started to have a new understanding of the Heavenly Calculation Technique that Jiang Chengxuan had cultivated.
She looked at Jiang Chengxuan and asked,
“Husband, now that you’ve removed the hidden danger, will Seven Star be alerted and thus do something more radical?”
Jiang Chengxuan smiled and shook his head.
“Don’t worry, he won’t.
With that old fellow’s paranoid nature, I believe he will not suspect that we did it ourselves. Instead, he would think that Ancestor Mengxue left a backup plan for you and me.
From now on, he will probably be even more careful not to give himself away.”
As they spoke, the couple did not stay in their cave abode for long. Soon, they left together..
