Absorbing The God Bestowed Spirit Ring

Jiang Chen went back to his home dejectedly, he did not go to Tang Hao's place for smithing in the afternoon either.

In the morning, he was defeated by Tang San, he does not have the face to go and see him again until he is strong enough to defeat him or Tang San apologises.

Even without his smithing training, he can improve his physical fitness by running with the stone mill.

This time, instead of running around the Village with the stone mill, he increased his training's difficulty and ran up the mountain with it. What was the cause of this change? After being defeated by Tang San, his desire for strength became even more intense.

During his training, Jing Wuming sent good news through their soul connection, he had narrowed down the target to those from Spirit Hall.

Even with Jing Wuming's special status, it is not easy to find out who hired him that day. He is not yet qualified to go through the files of the Assassin Organisation and can only manually collect intelligence and narrow down the targets by the process of elimination.

However, he had already made great progress with finding out the target comes from Spirit Hall.

"Spirit Hall? I have never provoked them, so why would they attack me? It stands to reason that they should be persuading me to join them with all sorts of offers, so why would they assassinate me?"

Jiang Chen was puzzled, the assassination does not look like Spirit Hall's work, after all, he has not outright rejected them and left some leeway for them to convince him in return for greater benefits.

Jiang Chen suddenly thought of a person, "Su Yuntao, he must know something, after all, he is the one who awakened my Martial Spirit."

Immediately, he conveyed the thoughts in his heart to Jing Wuming, he told Jing Wuming to focus on investigating Su Yuntao.

...

Two more days passed, Jing Wuming sent some good news again, he had narrowed down the targets and began to focus on Ma Nuo and Sisi.

Jiang Chen thought about it for a while, he remembered these 2 insignificant people from the novel, one of them was a girl that Su Yuntao pursued, and the other was the Chief Deacon of the Nuo Ding Branch Hall of Spirit Hall.

He could not understand though, why did these 2 want to kill him?

After another day of investigation, Jing Wuming finally found out everything and knew why the pair wanted to kill Jiang Chen.

Early in the morning, Jiang Chen called Jing Wuming to Holy Spirit Village to learn the truth of the matter in detail.

On the riverside outside the Village, the two stood opposite each other.

"My Liege, Su Yuntao has been using alcohol to soothe his sorrows these days. I found out that he gave your information to Ma Nuo after he returned to Spirit Hall, he wanted Ma Nuo to pass it on to the Supreme Pontiff Palace. But instead of doing that, Ma Nuo hired our Organisation to assassinate you."

"Why does Ma Nuo want to kill me? And what is the matter with that Sisi?" Jiang Chen asked.

"I got into Ma Nuo's office by relying on my Spirit Ability, I stayed there for a day and night, and finally discovered their secret."

At this point, Jing Wuming's face suddenly blushed.

Jiang Chen was a little puzzled, "Go on."

"That old man Ma Nuo and the girl Sisi were committing fornication in broad daylight, in their office."

At this point, Jing Wuming seemed to be immersed in his memories, his face turned weird as if remembering the aftertaste of that scene.

Of course, he was seeing a live-action movie in close up, so his reaction is understandable and he is a teenager full of raging hormones. He was so surprised and caught up with what was happening that he almost broke his camouflage.

Jiang Chen opened his mouth wide, the expression on his face said everything. He knew that Ma Nuo was over 80 years old, and Sisi was only about 20.

The age difference between the two is enough for Sisi to be his granddaughter, but they were unexpectedly engaging in sexual intercourse, in broad daylight, and that in their office? How immoral!

Also, isn't Su Yuntao pursuing Sisi? How come he has not noticed that he is a cuckold by now?

"How long have they been in this relationship?" Jiang Chen could not help asking, he was interested now.

"I guess with the familiarity with their bodies and what they were saying to each other, over a month."

"What about Su Yuntao, does he know about this?"

Jing Wuming shook his head, "He has been kept in the dark and never noticed anything unusual."

"Interesting." Jiang Chen smiled, "Then why did they decide to assassinate me?"

Jing Wuming explained about the deal that Ma Nuo and Sisi had made.

Jiang Chen finally found out that the reason Ma Nuo hired the assassins was to ensure that only he is qualified to become Nuo Ding City's Branch Hall Head.

"Poor Brother Tao." Jiang Chen shook his head.

"My Liege, do you need me to solve them?" Jing Wuming asked.

"No."

Jiang Chen's voice fell. "Isn't killing them an easy way out? Wouldn't it be better to ruin them and make them lose everything?"

Jing Wuming nodded thoughtfully.

"Come with me to the Village. I have to show you to someone."

Jiang Chen took Jing Wuming to Holy Spirit Village. Jing Wuming did not ask much about who he was going to see, all he knew was to obey Jiang Chen's commands.

At the entrance of the Village, Jiang Chen asked Jing Wuming to wait there, he then went in and called Tang San out.

Tang San's Purple Demon Eye saw what happened that day, so of course, he recognised Jing Wuming.

After a while, Tang San looked at Jiang Chen apologetically, "Jiang Chen, I am sorry, I misunderstood you."

Seeing Tang San lowering his head and admitting his mistake, Jiang Chen's sullenness these past days decreased slightly. Besides, he was not a narrow-minded person, Tang San's actions at that time were for his father's and Old Jack's safety.

After explaining clearly, Jiang Chen sent Jing Wuming away.

"After you return, get in touch with your peers and learn more about how to get along with people. You should not always be so cold, okay?"

Jing Wuming was taken aback for a moment, Jiang Chen had said almost the same thing his foster father said. That he should be more like an ordinary person when not an assassin.

In the past, he was withdrawn and did not care much about his adoptive father's teachings, but at this time Jiang Chen's command was something he could not refuse.

"Yes, My Liege." He replied, remembering Jiang Chen's instructions.

"You don't need to call me 'My Liege' from now on, call me 'Young Master'." Jiang Chen said.

"Yes, Young Master."

"Well, go back and practice hard. I will contact you when I need you."

Jing Wuming took his orders and returned to Nuo Ding City.

Jiang Chen's days returned to calm, he would run up the mountain with his weights and do other exercises, while in the afternoon, he

would smith in Tang Hao's shop and then in the evening, he would practice his Heavenly Vampire Transformation Technique.

Since Tang San apologised, Tang San's attitude towards Jiang Chen has improved, he was more considerate than before the misunderstanding occurred.

Because of Tang San's actions, Jiang Chen calmed down.

After all, Tang San had attacked him out of the desire to protect Tang Hao and Old Jack that day, thinking about it from another perspective, if he were Tang San, he would make the same decision.

As for avenging himself and ruining Ma Nuo, Jiang Chen has not yet thought of a good plan to do that yet.

However, revenge is a dish best served cold, and it is not too late for him to take revenge even 10 years later. When he goes to Nuo Ding City in the future, he will take the chance to kill Ma Nuo.

Time passed silently in such a peaceful life, the Villagers of Holy Spirit Village had become accustomed to Jiang Chen's abnormal behaviour every day, and gradually lost their fear of him.

On an ordinary night, 2 months later, the bright moon hung high in the night sky, the hazy nightlight enveloped the earth. It was rare for Jiang Chen not to cultivate in such an environment.

At this time, in the dead of the night, while everyone had fallen asleep, Jiang Chen sat cross-legged on his bed, feeling his surging Spirit Power.

Tonight, he will absorb his First Spirit Ring and become a Spirit Master.

He was very curious. With over 2 months of training, based on his current physique and will, how far can he persist, and what kind of Spirit Ring will he obtain?
