Chapter Forty-Nine: The Lone Wolf Starves to Death, the Soli

bed his head and said pitifully, "Okay."So the two of them walked north.>We walked for a long time, passing many people and houses.The stout man suddenly stopped and pulled out a map from his bosom. H...After hearing what the sparrow had to say, Jiang Wang felt a deep sense of sadness.

All things in the world, as long as they have a spirit, crave freedom.

Even a lone wolf dies of starvation, and a solitary eagle perishes by striking a pillar. How much more so is this true for humans

So, you...

Jiang Wang waited for him to continue, a vague sense of what Lian Que wanted creeping into his mind.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

“Although I used to think these rules were stale and corrupt, I also knew that the accumulated weight of tradition in the Lian family was impossible to shake. Hundreds of years of customs couldn't be changed easily by anyone.”

But today I truly realized, the Liang family has rotted to its core. Honor and faith are gone.

“Change must be made, no matter how painful the cost. Because if this continues, the Li family will be gone! The ancient flame that has been burning for so many years will surely be extinguished.”

"I have made up my mind today, therefore."

At that moment, a resolute and holy light appeared on the ugly face of the sparrow.

“I want to change all of this.”

"What do you want to do" Jiang Wang asked.

"I didn't want to fight for the position of head of the Lián family before, but now I do. " He looked at Jiang Wang and said, "Before, I focused on forging weapons and didn't have many connections or friends. So, I would like to ask for your help."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“I know you are currently working for Chong Xuan Sheng, and Chong Xuan Sheng is fighting with Chong Xuan Zun for the right of inheritance. I am willing to join you. I only hope that when I want to change the Liang family in the future, you can help me.”

Jiang Wang realized that this was a very solid power.

With the reputation forged from humble beginnings, within a renowned family of weaponsmiths like the Lians, one already possesses sufficient capital to vie for the position of head.

The Southern Reaches Lin family was a clan that royal heirs coveted. If it weren't for the current Emperor Qi's formidable prestige and strict rule, Fourteenth Prince Jiang Wuyong would never have been allowed to come into contact with them.

Unlike Zhēnglóng, the Lián family's involvement in the internal power struggle of the Zhòngxuān school carried less risk. In other words, if Liánquè controlled the Lián family, they would have more resources and fewer concerns in the competition between Zhòngxuān Shèng and Zhòngxuān Zūn.

This is undoubtedly a timely help for Chong Xuansheng.

Having an ally like the Lián family would be enough to help him close the gap with Chong Xuan Zun faster. Of course, all of this hinges on them being able to help Liánquè achieve his dreams.

Jiang Wang thought about it, and didn't say anything insincere.

"I said to him very sincerely, 'I'm friends with you, and I can represent myself, unconditionally willing to help you. But I can't make the decision for Chong Xuan.'"

"And I must tell you, the situation we face is very difficult. Chong Xuan Zun, regardless of his individual strength, personal influence, or network of contacts, far surpasses Chong Xuan Sheng. As the first-in-line heir for a long time, Chong Xuan Sheng has only just begun to develop. Although we desperately need your help now, I don't want you to make rash decisions."

"Jiang Wang," Lian Que said seriously, "no matter whether it's Chongxuan Zun or Chongxuan Sheng, I don't trust anyone between them. So those things aren't something I need to consider. All I know is that you are trustworthy. So I stand by your side. Whoever you help, I will help."

“Okay, I’ll ask Chongxuan Sheng.”

In front of Lianque, Jiang Wang took out the Huan Yin Pei and sent a message to Chong Xuan Sheng in the nearby wine shop.

He realized this was no small matter. Allowing Lian Que and Chong Xuan to meet in private would likely be unwise. In a place like Nan Yao City, the sound-returning pendant he had prepared for the Heavenly Mansion secret realm proved surprisingly useful.

As Jiang Wang said, he can only speak for himself. He cannot and will not make decisions for Chong Xuan.

However, when he discussed with Chong Xuan Sheng about it, this fat man's decisiveness still surprised Jiang Wang.

“I agree to the cooperation. Tell Tiewa this: ‘I, Chong Xuan, will never mistreat my allies. You help me control the Chongxuan family today, and tomorrow I will help you overthrow the Lian family!’”

Jiang Wang inputted the Yuan, and placed the Huanyin Pendant in front of Lian Que.

Lianque didn't mind the nickname "Iron Boy" at all. After glancing at Jiang Wang, he said, "Agreed."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Upon hearing the response, Chongxuan immediately said to Jiang Wang: "It's not convenient to talk in detail now. I will privately establish a secret connection with the blacksmith... uh... Lianque later. You leave there immediately and come to the tavern to meet me. We will leave the city right away."

Jiang Wang wasn't stupid, he just lacked worldly experience due to his upbringing. When Chong Xuan said this, Jiang Wang immediately understood.

The less people know about the collaboration between he and the sparrow, the greater its effect will be in the future.

Now it is flagrantly open, with a hundred harms and no benefits. Good things may turn bad.

As the only armorer in the Liang family to have forged a renowned weapon in nearly fifty years, Lian Que has a bright future ahead of him. With a little effort, he could quickly rise through the ranks. In this regard, Chong Xuan can offer covert assistance in many ways. This includes providing Lian Que with the experience he lacks most: navigating power struggles and political maneuvering.

But if he wants to truly master the Li family's power, his opponent Li Que is not only other Li family members vying for inheritance rights, but also the existing vested interests of the Li family, those elders... even the current clan leader, Li Zhiting!

Lian Que's current status is certainly a great help to Zhong Xuan Sheng. However, on the other hand, Lian Que also has many competitors within the Lian clan.

...Zhong Xuan's alliance with Lian Que is like a grand parade, essentially pushing Lian Que's competitors onto Zhong Xuan's side in a way.

There's no need to think about whether Xuan would do that.

He himself is doing the same thing. Chong Xuan has contacted everyone in his network of allies and connections who are competing with him, winning over all of them.

Otherwise, how could he have built up his power so quickly

Such a collaborative relationship, if kept secret, could serve as a trump card. When the time comes to clash swords with Chongxuan, this very alliance might prove decisive in determining the victor.

The more chips you have, the more confident you'll be when the results are finally revealed.

Chong Xuan knew from the side that Lian Que and Jiang Wang were getting along well, but he didn't expect that Lian Que and Chong Xuan here would achieve such a level of cooperation.

Through Jiang Wang, Chong Xuan and Lian Que established an alliance agreement to help each other without reservation!

Zhong Xuan Sheng, instead, immediately wanted to leave, the faster the better, making it seem like he and Lian Que couldn't stand each other.

Back at the inn, Chong Xuan Sheng's subordinates had already prepared a carriage. Jiang Wang got straight into the carriage and left.

Here is your text translated into English:

Although this carriage was luxurious and enormous, Chong Xuan occupied nearly one-third of the space by himself.

The elder from their clan who had come to Nanyao with Chong Xuan, sat opposite Jiang Wang along with the others, eyes closed in meditation.

It's a good thing he's only slightly overweight, otherwise Jiang Wang wouldn't know where to squeeze.

Zhong Xuan Sheng lifted the curtain of his carriage, looking at Nanyao City while explaining to Jiang Wang: "I'm not afraid of him having conditions and making demands. If I lose, everything is over. But if I win, all problems will be solved."

"Jiang Wuyang's one sentence wasn't wrong, your gambling nature is indeed heavy."

Zhonghuan's contradictions are very prominent. On the one hand, he is careful and cautious; at this moment, peeking out the curtain is also a way to be vigilant about his surroundings. On the other hand, he has a strong gambling nature and often takes risks with big bets.

Upon hearing Jiang Wang's words, he just smiled.

“I'm already inferior to Chong Xuan in every way. If I were to lose even the courage to go all out, what would I have to compete with him”

Hearing this, the elders of Chongxuan's clan opened their eyes and chuckled, "You are not stronger than him in courage."f the mortal world has been blocked behind the Gate of Ten Thousand Demons and poses no real threat to humanity. It is even seen as a "resource," with constant human armies going there to plunder it.M...
