Chapter Seventy-eighth: Human Hearts Have Gone Astray

ure bumped into him, he didn't have time to dodge.No, perhaps he had tried his best to dodge, but was still hit.This collision felt very strange, because instead of pushing each other away as they nor...Yet it is said that in the city of Linzi.

They had gathered together for Jiang Wang's sake. After Jiang Wang left, everyone dispersed.

Of course, going out with one's ears covered would inevitably make the teahouse waiters curious.

Li Longchuan bid farewell to everyone and returned home alone. Mrs. Li had been staying in Linzi for the past few days, and he had been out playing less often, so he inevitably had to spend more time with the elderly.

He did not ride in a palanquin, but walked with only one attendant.

Walking out of the deep alley, after crossing a street, I suddenly saw a familiar figure rush past and shouted, "Xu Gao'e!"

Xu Xiangqian helplessly stopped his steps and turned around.

Only then did he unfurl a folding fan, gently rocking it against his face, revealing only his eyes and remarkably high forehead.

He mumbled, "What's up"

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

"Where did you just go You vanished so quickly!" Li Longchuan said with a smile.

"Something's up."

Li Longchuan leaned forward: "What's up"

"What does it have to do with you... Hey!" he shouted.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

But Li Longchuan took advantage of his unguarded moment and snatched away his folding fan.

He revealed his nose stuffed with a cloth, and a mouth still swollen.

"Haha." Li Longchuan couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Xu Xiangqian snatched back the folding fan and quickly unfolded it again, covering his face. His voice came out harshly from behind the fan: "What are you laughing at! Be quiet!"

"Don't worry," Li Longchuan couldn't stop laughing: "They didn't take the same path as me, they won't run into you."

Xu Xiangqian still held his folding fan, firmly guarding his face, his eyes darting about alertly: "There are more than just Chongxuan and Fatty who know me in Linzi."

"I know you were beaten by my sister, and it wasn't just them."

Xue Xiangqian was furious and kicked the ground: "Stop laughing!"

Li Longchuan was well-prepared. With a nimble step back, he made his opponent miss his footing.

Xu Xiangqian added viciously, "You've never been beaten by her"

>

"That's mostly from when you were little, and besides, you've been hit more times than me." Li Longchuan looked at him with pity: "Has your forehead been bruised again"

>

Xu Xiangqian: ...

Xu Daye has always been the one to put others down, who has ever put him down

But getting beaten up because of rumors is really not something to be proud of.

He didn't continue to be angry with Li Longchuan. His eyes rolled, and he asked, "What happens after I leave"

"What's up" Li Longchuan asked, feigning ignorance.

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

Xu Xiangqian also pretended to be nonchalant: "It's about your sister and Jiang Wang going to Dazze County together, isn't it"

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

"What else can we do" Li Longchuan continued, clueless. "My uncle had her look after Jiang Wang, too, because he sees potential in Jiang Wang... It's not really a matter of who looks after whom! My uncle probably feels that although my sister is strong, she hasn't seen much life and death. In this respect, she might need Jiang Wang to look after her instead."

“Well...that makes sense.” Xu Xiangqian continued to pretend: “Then what”

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

"Then what" Li Longchuan continued, feigning ignorance.

"It's Jiang Wang, isn't it!" Xu Xiangqian couldn't hold back anymore and directly asked: "Were you beaten Hey, were you beaten"

Lee Lung-chuan looked at him with disdain: "You guys are still good friends You seem to want him to get beaten up"

Xu Xiangqian chuckled: "Sharing weal and woe, right"

And quickly changed his tune: "We sympathize with each other's suffering, we sympathize with each other's suffering."

Here is your translated text:

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

"Haha, when he comes back, just ask him yourself." Li Longchuan was satisfied with his torment and left without a care.

"You!"

Xu Xiangqian couldn't help but point at his back with his folding fan, but he quickly reacted and covered his face again.

"Oh."

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

There was only a long sigh.

"People's hearts are not ancient, people's hearts are not ancient."

Dazé County is to the north of Linzi.

Li Fengyao's delicate maidservant was named Xiaotong. The route she chose would take her through the entire Ximing County.

Of course, this route also passed through Jiang Wang and Li Fengyao's consent.

"Xiao Wang," Li Fengyao broke the silence, perhaps driven by a sense of responsibility stemming from the address "sister." "Do you know about Qixing Lou"

"Not very familiar," Jiang Wang shook her head, then remembered something and took out a booklet from her bosom. "Before we left, the leader of the Qixi Alliance, Qing Xi, gave me some information about the Seven Star Building...Uh...Sister Feng Yao, do you want to take a look"

This call of "Sister Feng Yao," it's truly... three parts shyness, seven parts obedient.

Even Li Fengyao, known as the Ice Phoenix, softened her gaze.

As for famous secret realms like the Qixinglou, after years of exploration, each family has a certain understanding. The Shímen Lǐ clan is no exception. However, it's unlikely that the Four Seas Merchant Alliance has as comprehensive data as they do.

She reached out and took the book, carefully flipping through it. Her phoenix eyebrows rose slightly, and with a jade finger, she pulled out a letter. "There's another letter here," she said, "a letter from Qing Xi."

As she spoke, she gently placed the letter beside Jiang Wang on the low table.

The envelope was yellowed with age. Her fingers, shining like ice and jade, gently held it.

“A letter for me” Jiang Wang was also a little surprised.

When did Qingxi become so close to him, and why was there a letter about Qixinglou attached to the information

mysteriously inexplicable.

He shook his head and tore open the letter.

The letter didn't say anything scandalous. Qing Xi only spoke to Jiang Wang in a tone of elder, offering him some advice and expressing her expectations for his future. From the perspective of the Si Hai Merchant Alliance, she also subtly hinted at recruiting him. They were all polite phrases with nothing new.

Also, the letter said that if you encounter any difficulties at Qixinglou, you can ask Fang Chong, a first-rank executive of the Sihai Merchant League who also went to Qixinglou, for help.

At the end of the letter, he also casually mentioned that he had an ancient prescription in his possession, a secret formula for longevity. If Jiang Wang obtained the Longevity Treasure during this trip, he might as well hand it over to the alchemists of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, who could maximize the treasure's effects and ensure that Jiang Wang would not be disadvantaged.

In short, the whole letter is very kind and treats Jiang Wang like a younger generation relative. It is full of care and protection.

Jiang Wang finished reading the letter and didn't quite understand what Qing Xi was trying to do. It seemed like she just wanted to draw him in.

Li Fengyao was flipping through the information about Qixing Lou, and casually remarked: "My uncle told me that Lord Qingmeng is a man who never does unprofitable business."

Jiang Wang nodded and said, "Of course I wouldn't underestimate it."

Having said enough, Li Fengyao stopped talking.

She looked over the document and then took out her pen and ink from the carriage's secret compartment, writing on it.

Jiang Wang then closed his eyes to meditate.

The content within the > tags is an empty string. There's nothing to translate.

No communication for a long time.

“Alright.” Li Fengyao’s voice pulled Jiang Wang from his cultivation, “I’ve made some additions to this document. Please take another look at it.”

Jiang Wang responded with a sound, took the booklet, and saw that between the lines, there were many small characters added. The font was thin and elegant, giving people the feeling that the writer was beautiful, but inevitably distant.

Here's the text translated into English:

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

After carefully reviewing the information about the Qixinglou, I made sure to commit all the important details to memory.

The Qixinglou is not like the Tianfu Secret Realm. The Tianfu Secret Realm doesn't bring out any information, so no one knows anything beforehand and everyone starts on the same level.

And over the years, exploration of Qixing Lou has already begun at the information gathering stage regarding competition within Qixing Lou.

After handing over the completed data to Jiang Wang, Li Fengyao went into seclusion for cultivation.

Jiang Wang carefully read through the data and continued to immerse himself in his cultivation.

Cultivation actually made him very at ease.

There was no talking along the way.

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Wang emerged from his meditative state in a dazed manner.

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

Lifting the curtain, he asked, "Where are we going"

Xiaotong sat cross-legged, one little foot dangling in mid-air, glanced around the environment, and said: "It should be Songcheng."

"Oh."

Jiang Wang didn't look back here.

The curtains fell.

The carriage fell silent once more. was invaded by the night."Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!Jiang Wang wasn't the first to hear about the nightly invasion here, but it was the first time he had witnessed...
