But it is also subject to two constraints——

The first is cultivation, and the second is insight.

Cultivation level is very important to understand. Any supernatural abilities used against an enemy are constrained by both the caster's and the recipient's cultivation levels. Even if Jiang Wang's Three-Burned True Fire is powerful, it wouldn't be enough for him to challenge a Godly Presence expert. Unless that Godly Presence expert stood still and offered no resistance, there would be a chance for the Three-Burned True Fire to have an effect.

At that time, even though Hai Zongming was at the peak of his cultivation and possessed no divine abilities, he was still targeted by everyone. Jian Po Si Xiang advanced forward, blocking Xingguang Lou with his sword. He first broke through its Qiulong索, then used Dingfengzhu to dispel its protective Dao techniques, and finally, with all his might, unleashed the Samādhi True Fire, burning Hai Zongming to ashes who was completely unprepared.

The stronger Jiang Wang's cultivation, the weaker his opponent's cultivation, the more he could influence them to make worse choices. Conversely.

The restrictions of cultivation are so pervasive that, fundamentally speaking, the only point that truly restricts the path of divine powers is "understanding."

Knowing is consciousness, seeing is eye recognition. To distinguish things and reason, to judge doubts and difficulties, this is called wisdom.

The application of diqi lies in guiding the opponent "astray" from countless choices. And to guide the opponent's choice, there is a basic prerequisite: to clearly understand the opponent's options.

"Knowing" and "seeing" can also be extended to "self-knowledge" and "knowing the enemy," which are one's understanding of the world and their knowledge of the opponent.

For example, in the streets of Wenxi County town, searching for that mysterious person hiding there.

Jiang Wang didn't know the blue-skinned being that came towards him, but his own perception allowed him to easily judge what choices it would make—nothing more than left or right.

Even a three-year-old child can make such judgments, so knowledge is not an obstacle.

Therefore, Jiang Wang used a roundabout strategy to lead Qing Pi astray, causing him to run into the scholar, thus provoking a conflict. This gave him an opportunity to observe the entire street with ease.

Reasonable and natural.

This time, he was very clear about where Jiao Xiong died, clear about the purpose of Feng Yue and Feng Ming's arrival, and from Jiao Guan's attitude, he could also see the attitude of the Weining Hou Mansion.

He didn't need to know about the arrangements made by Master Jiao, but what kind of seats he would arrange for the visitors from Qingyun Pavilion was easy to deduce.

Jiang Wang merely used his divine power to guide Jiao Guan's choices, making them more targeted—making the people of Qingyun Pavilion respectfully take the last seat.

As long as he chose to sit there at the beginning, he would naturally be able to sit with the people from Qingyun Pavilion. No one would find anything amiss.

In order to create an encounter between Jiang Wang and the cultivators of Qingyun Pavilion, Jiang Wang spared no effort. Of course, he wouldn't give up just because Feng Ming was indifferent.

Within the Qingyun Pavilion, there are two influential families: Feng and Chi. Throughout history, the position of Sect Master has always been held by either a member of the Feng family or the Chi family.

Because of the Chiyun Mountain expedition that involved Chi Yue, Jiao Xiong died. Therefore, when mending the relationship, the Qingyun Pavilion sent a high-ranking official surnamed Feng.

Jiang Wang had already inquired about it, the current master of Qingyun Pavilion was surnamed Chi, with the cultivation level of a peak cultivator in the Outer Courtyard. Feng Yue was one of the four pavilion masters of Qingyun Pavilion, and had the qualifications to succeed as the master.

The succession of the Qingyun Pavilion's Sect Masters has always followed this pattern: when a member of the Chi family is the Sect Master, there must be two members of the Feng family among the elders, with one remaining member being from the Chi family and another from an external surname. When a member of the Feng family becomes the Sect Master, the same pattern applies.

For thousands of years, the Feng and Chi clans have taken turns serving as the heads of the clan.

To be frank, this is an overly idealized institutional design aimed at ensuring that the Feng and Chi families continue to take turns as clan head.

In the actual continuation, problems are easy to arise. Because the strength of the Feng and Chi families cannot always remain balanced. When the balance of power is broken, the stronger party will inevitably seek more power corresponding to its strength.

But Qiongyuting has passed down so smoothly and peacefully, with no major problems to date. Perhaps it's luck, or maybe there are more specific checks and balances in place internally, but as an outsider, Jiang Wang has no way of knowing.

However, the institutional problems of Qingyun Pavilion are not something Jiang Wang needs to worry about.

He only needed to know that this Feng Ming was the son of Chong Feng Yue, the headmaster of Qingyun Pavilion. His status in Qingyun Pavilion was quite high.

Compared to Feng Yue, who was slapped in the face and still received a reward, this insidious young man, although he had some schemes, was obviously easier to deal with. If you want to find back Qingyun Pavilion, you need to start with this person.

Jiang Wang let out a light sigh, appearing nonchalant yet revealing a hint of genuine feeling: “I see that you are a distinguished gentleman, and it would be inappropriate for me to ask you to sit at the lowest seat. The Wei Ning Marquis’s household is indeed prestigious, but I apologize if we have been inconsiderate towards our honored guest.”

This hits the nail on the head.

Feng Ming gritted his teeth, but in the end, he didn't utter a single curse. He just squeezed out from between his teeth: "After all, it's the Hou Mansion, if you can't adapt, just get used to it."

"When my master was still alive, he never had to sit here when visiting the Marquis's mansion," Jiang Wang chuckled wryly. "The ways of the world are cold; I've long since grown accustomed to them. It's just that seeing you all, such talented individuals, also treated with disrespect, makes me feel a pang of sympathy."

Feng Ming finally looked at him. Probably due to sympathy for the same affliction, and not lacking in the upbringing of a large number of disciples himself, he asked, "Brother, what sect are you from"

"The nameless sect is gone, it has long since fallen." Jiang Wang's expression was bitter: "Xiyun Jianzong, I'm afraid it's hard to enter the ears of your peers like this."

Zhong Xuan Sheng was a master of acting. He had been immersed in the art for a long time, and Zhuang Chengqian had personally demonstrated to him what it meant to deceive gods and ghosts. Although his current emotional performances were certainly not as natural as Zhuang Chengqian's, he could still fool Feng Ming, who was lacking enthusiasm, without much difficulty.

Feng Ming had never heard of the Xiyun Sword Sect, but he still comforted him: “I've also heard of it. It was once very famous. Brother, don't be discouraged, you are still so young... Remember, it's better to deceive an old man than to deceive a poor youth!”

When he got to that point, he gritted his teeth again, remembering the disrespect he had received from the Wei Ning Hou's mansion.

"A person of Brother's caliber is naturally qualified to say such a thing." Jiang Wang wryly agreed, then rallied his spirits: "I forgot to introduce myself to Brother. My humble name is Yu Songhai from the Xiyun Sword Sect. Today, I am fortunate to meet a distinguished figure like you! Please forgive my rudeness, I would like to borrow a cup of wine from this Marquis's estate, in a toast to your honor!"

Having said that, he raised his cup and drank it all in one go.

All things are understood through practice, and thoughts become resources when they are clear. After going through so much and seeing so much, Jiang Wang gradually formed his own understanding of human nature.

Feng Ming's state at this time, after being humiliated by the Wei Ning Marquis Mansion and repeatedly suppressed by Feng Yue, needed recognition and encouragement to regain his self-esteem.

Jiang Wang's eloquence was evident at first glance. With every word, he demonstrated extraordinary talent, constantly belittling himself while exalting others, exactly to their liking.

Contempt is a choice, and coping is a choice.

Under the influence of going astray, the former certainly would not exist.

Feng Ming then raised his cup and took a sip: "Since we've met, it means we're destined to. My name is Feng Ming."cently there have been several articles that are well-reasoned and eloquent.
