Chapter 58: A Room Within a Room
However, the dense fog remained, perpetually obscuring the view.Wei Yan led the way, Li Jianqiu and Wang Changxiang guarding his left and right. Zhao Lang, though wounded, was otherwise in good fighti...It was arranged that they would meet at a small town in the state of Zheng, where Xiang Qian and his master had visited during their travels across the land.
It so happened that Jiang Wang, when he first came from Yun Country to Qi Country, had also passed through this small town.
As he entered the city gate, Jiang Wang happened to see two guards tearing down a notice on the wall, taking advantage of the darkness.
With Jiang Wang's current eyesight, he could naturally see clearly. Those were several wanted posters, and the target of the wanted notices was none other than Hell No Gate!
The wanted poster depicted a Hell's Gate mask of Yama, and a portrait of Yin Guan – in the Hell's Gate of Yama, only Yin Guan reveals his true face.
>
Hell's Gate was once accused of assassinating the general defending Qu Guo's border, though Hell's Gate has never publicly confirmed the identity of the person who hired them. Rumors have consistently pointed to Zheng Guo as the culprit.
Therefore, in the eyes of discerning people, this assassination by Hell's Gate clearly had the intention of provoking conflict between the countries of Qu and Zheng. Since the mastermind behind it has not been exposed, both Qu and Zheng focused their main targets on Hell's Gate.
After this, Diyu Wumen was continuously wanted on official notices in the two states of Qu and Zheng.
Hell's Gate is formidable, after all. Even powerful beings who descend from the heavens seek death against it. Countries like Qu and Zheng are small with limited powerful figures. It's impossible for those powerful enough to reach the divine realm to chase Hell's Gate across the land. Thus, over such a long period, they have seen little success, only capturing minor lackeys on the fringes of Hell's Gate.
But in order to show their determination, the wanted posters of Hell's Gate could remain hanging on the city gates of both countries.
This matter Zheng Xuan Sheng had already discussed with Jiang Wang.
However, now... The Zheng Guo side has quietly begun tearing up the arrest warrants.
In Jiang Wang's view, Yue Leng personally capturing King Taishan opened up a breakthrough in the pursuit. In the end, only two people escaped from the entire hell with no exit, and the Blue Plate Pursuit Team's actions couldn't be considered a failure.
The killing of a Minister from the Wai Lou Realm by the Hell's Gate left behind four Peak Wai Lou Realm Yan Luo. It was not a worthwhile outcome at all.
But he ignored how formidable the State of Qi was.
Hell's Gate could be breached in Qi Du and the assassination carried out successfully. Even if only two Yama Lords were escaped, it was still a feat worthy of praise and remembrance.
>
After this battle, the Hell's Gate became widely renowned. Its fame wasn't limited to the Eastern region; it seemed poised to rival any organization for the title of "World's Number One Assassin."
Zheng Guo's withdrawal of the arrest warrant is undoubtedly further proof of the overwhelming power of Hell's Gate.
Running a killer organization into the limelight doesn't seem like a rational choice.
But Jiang Wang understood why Yin Guan had done this - he himself had escaped from You Guo, but his cousin was still in You Guo.
The more famous he became, the safer his cousin was.
Why is it that in the entire hell with all the Yama Kings, only he always shows his true face
Because he wanted the master Yu Guo to know that he was still alive, and growing stronger!
Perhaps Jiang Wang's gaze lingered for too long, and the soldier tearing down the notice snarled ferociously: "What are you looking at Are you looking for death!"
This content appears to be a plain text tag. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang didn't mind. He retracted his gaze and walked straight into town.
Soldiers are often the people with the strongest sense of national honor in a country. As soldiers of the state of Zheng, they were helpless against a killer organization and could only sneakily tear down the wanted posters under the cover of darkness. This was undoubtedly a disgrace, so it’s understandable that their emotions were volatile.
Jiang Wang could understand.
Meet up at the first inn we see after entering the city.
This inn is called "Yingbin Lou".
>
It's a very common name, and naturally, the inn itself is rather ordinary as well.
Jiang Wang walked up to the counter: "Shopkeeper, could you please tell me Which room is Xiang Zheng staying in I'm his friend, and we made an appointment to meet here."
Here is the translation:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Forward" The middle-aged shopkeeper flipped through the list: "Little brother, aren't you looking in the wrong place Our shop doesn't have this person."
Please provide the content you want to be translated. The `
` tags will be kept in place during translation, but the text within them is what will be translated.
Jiang Wang thought for a moment: "I'd like to find someone with a deadpan expression, always looking like they haven't slept well, an average-aged man."
Actually, he is only twenty years old in reality, but if he doesn't say it, no one would ever guess.
The shopkeeper suddenly realized, "You're talking about Mr. Jiang Wang, aren't you"
“...Yes, it’s him.”
>
It turns out this is what it feels like to have your name "borrowed."
Jiāng Wàng xiān-xiē kòu chū shēng lái, hǎo dǎi cái zhǐ zhù.
"Room numbered Tianzi, Bing number." The middle-aged shopkeeper lowered his head and looked again, then said a little embarrassedly: "You are his friend, could you please help settle the bill He only booked a room for one day, but he has already lived here for three days."
As for why he only spent a day's worth of money but was allowed to stay for three days without being driven out... ordinary people wouldn't dare to evict an extraordinary cultivator.
“...I apologize for the trouble.” Jiang Wang awkwardly took out some copper coins to pay the bill.
Qi Dao coins are relatively common throughout the Eastern Region.
Gold and silver are widely accepted, but there wasn't much stored in Jiang Wang's storage box. He planned to use them after leaving the Eastern Region.
After all, the level he is currently dealing with circulates Dao Yuan stones.
Outside the room, Jiang Wang didn't knock on the door, but instead directly shook open the latch and pushed the door straight in.
As expected, Xiang Qian was lying on the bed, sleeping soundly with his head buried in the pillow.
It seems like he hasn't moved from his spot for the past three days.
Of course, Jiang Wang knew that as long as she showed hostility and moved forward, he would immediately wake up.
But this doesn't prove how farsighted he is, just that his flying sword is nimble.
Jiang Wang walked forward and flung the blanket aside: “Time to go!”
>
He opened his eyes dizzily and saw Jiang Wang. He immediately closed them again.

"Isn't it just getting dark Sleep a little longer!"

He sleeps during the day and at night. To him, no matter where he goes, it's just a change of scenery for sleeping.

Jiang Wang shook his head helplessly, without saying anything more. He found a chair in the room at random, sat down cross-legged, and began his evening studies.
Although the Inner Palace has been opened, Heaven and Earth's Isle still requires adjustment. However, as cultivation progresses, it no longer takes so much time.
The most time should still be spent within. Cleaning and exploring the inner palace is an experience of discovering a treasure trove of the human body, but also a process of self-awareness.
It is said by the ancients, “The inner chamber is the body within the body, the room within a room.”
So, what does the inner abode mean for practitioners
After this period of "cleaning," Jiang Wang had already felt the outlines of human secrets, always on the verge of being unearthed.
>
For Inner Court cultivators, divine ability seeds are naturally the ultimate pursuit.
But divine seeds are rare and hard to come by. Even among a hundred Inner Mansion Realm cultivators, it's unlikely that even one would be able to obtain one.
For practitioners of the fortuitous divine ability, excavating the hidden treasures within their physical bodies is the greatest pursuit within this realm of inner essence. What Jiang Wang aspires to at present is also these hidden treasures.

In the course of practice, one night passes quickly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Jiang Wang opened his eyes, everything in the room was as it was yesterday, even his sleeping position hadn't changed.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If he put this much energy into cultivating, this kid might just be able to recreate the peak of flying sword mastery...
“Get up!” Jiang Wang shouted.
Jiang Wang was certain that his shout had woken the person ahead of him, because their breathing hitched.
But he remained silent, as if trying to sleep through it.
>
Jiang Wang no longer wasted words, he plucked a flower of flame with his finger, letting it float upward and forward. It descended at a constant speed.
He remained motionless for a moment, realizing there was no point in struggling further. With a swift movement, he scrambled to his feet, nimbly dodging the blazing flower.
It was as if nothing had happened. He didn't even bother to wash up and just said, "Let's go!"
