Chapter 236 The Last Protection
Chapter 236 The Last Protection
His voice was not loud, but it made the two siblings feel a chill in their hearts, as if they had heard the most beautiful voice in the world.
As Xuan Kun's voice fell, he waved his hand, and the expression on his face changed, returning directly to Xuan Kun's original appearance.
Seeing this scene, Jiang Zhiwei's beautiful eyes couldn't help but turn red, tears streamed down, sobbing sounds could be heard, and she asked incoherently with excitement.
"...Really? You...really are...Ancestor Xuankun!"
When the Five Elements Sect was destroyed, she was still young, but had just started to practice Qi. She had never seen Xuan Kun, but had heard of him from her father Jiang Zhi. During her escape, she also knew what the ancestor Xuan Kun looked like from her father's spiritual power simulation.
We also learned from the news in the martial arts world that Patriarch Xuankun had died under the siege of Yuanying powerhouses. Although the body was not seen, it was also the news that Tianhuai Kingdom had made public. Although it could not be verified, it was definitely a grave disaster.
She never thought that thirty-two years after the demise of the Five Elements Sect, their ancestor Xuan Kun would appear in front of her like this. Looking at the face of the person opposite her, he was exactly the same as the ancestor Xuan Kun simulated by her father Jiang Zhi's spiritual power.
There was also a shock on Jiangsu Feng's innocent face. Like Jiang Zhiwei, he had never seen the three Nascent Soul ancestors of the Five Elements Sect, and had not even seen Jiang Zhi's spiritual power simulation.
After hearing his sister's excited words, the calm Jiangsu Feng couldn't help but be shocked and thought to himself.
"Ancestor Xuankun, I have never seen this person before, but a Nascent Soul cultivator can easily destroy two low-level ants like us with just a flick of the finger. I believe he will not deceive us. After all, we do not pose any temptation or threat to him."
The two of them did not have much of the Five Elements Sect's magical secrets. After all, as a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, Jiang Zhi could not attract the attention of a Yuanying cultivator.
Xuan Kun looked at the two of them, nodded, and answered Jiang Zhiwei's previous question.
"Of course. Do I, a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator, need to deceive you two who are just at the Foundation Establishment stage and Qi Refining stage?"
Then he shook his head and laughed, "Haha, I thought that with the intervention of the Yin-Yang Divine Sect, my Five Elements Sect would be left with no survivors, and I would be the only one left in the world. I didn't expect it! I didn't expect that my Five Elements Sect would still have you two."
Jiang Zhiwei had stopped sobbing, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Sufeng's hand and knelt down on the spot.
"Jiang Zhiwei, daughter of Five Elements Sect elder Jiang Zhi, greets Patriarch Xuankun!"
Seeing this, Jiangsu Feng also hurriedly said.
"Jiang Sufeng, son of Five Elements Sect elder Jiang Zhi, greets Patriarch Xuan Kun!"
Xuan Kun couldn't help but laugh, then he waved his hand, and three-colored spiritual power floated, instantly pulling the two up, and smiled with relief.
"As long as we are here, the Five Elements Sect has not yet been destroyed. This is the first time we three have met. I see that one of you cultivates fire attribute spiritual power, and the other cultivates gold attribute spiritual power. These two magic weapons are a welcome gift for you."
As he spoke, a crystal clear white jade ring and a golden war fork shining with golden light flew out from Xuan Kun's storage bag.
The white jade ring stopped in front of Jiang Zhiwei, and the golden war fork stopped in front of Jiang Su Feng. The two of them looked at the two shining magic weapons hanging in front of them and couldn't help swallowing.
Xuan Kun's voice came again.
"These two are magical artifacts for the middle stage of the Jindan stage. One is called the White Jade Ring, and the other is called the Five Gold Forks. I got them both by killing enemies. Although you two haven't condensed your Jindan yet and can't refine and use the magical artifacts, you both have good aptitude. Take them both. After you condense your Jindan, you can refine and use them."
Jiang Zhiwei and Jiang Sufeng looked at Xuan Kun, then looked at each other, and each took the magic weapon in front of them.
He immediately thanked Xuan Kun respectfully, "Thank you, Ancestor Xuan Kun!"
Jiang Zhiwei couldn't help but feel delighted. "I didn't expect that this Xuan Kun Patriarch would give me a mid-stage Jindan magic weapon as soon as we met. Father, it's only a mid-stage Jindan life-defining magic weapon, and I just got it when I was at the foundation-building stage. It seems that this Patriarch values us two very much!"
Xuan Kun didn't know what she was thinking. After hesitating for a while, he asked.
"Judging from your situation, you should have escaped from the Five Elements Sect. How did your father Jiang Zhi die? Are there any other survivors in the Five Elements Sect?"
Jiang Zhiwei and her brother had lost their previous dignity and unyielding spirit, and now acted like obedient people in front of their elders. When they heard Xuan Kun's question, their eyes dimmed, but they still answered respectfully.
"Thirty-two years ago, I was only at the Qi Refining stage. At that time, I was traveling with my father. Facing the battle that wiped out our family, we didn't know much."
"We were attacked on the way. My father, besieged by two Jindan cultivators, desperately tried to escape with me, but he himself was severely injured. He learned from those two Jindan cultivators of the Hehuan Sect about the battle that wiped out our Five Elements Sect."
"My father took me and hid me among the common people. Afterwards, through inquiries, I learned that the Five Elements Sect had been destroyed, and its territory had been divided between the Hehuan Sect and the Jiandao Sect. My mother, who had stayed in the sect, had died in battle."
At this point, Jiang Zhiwei was already sobbing uncontrollably. Every time she thought back to the past, she couldn't help crying.
Jiangsu Feng looked at his sister, and a look of heartache appeared on his face. He then looked at Xuan Kun, took over the conversation and continued.
"Old Ancestor, later in the mortal world, my father and sister met me. At that time, I was just a mortal child wandering the world. My father saw that I had spiritual roots and that I got along well with them, so he adopted me as his son."
"But not long after, my father died from a relapse of his old injuries. Afterwards, my sister and I disappeared from the world."
Having said that, Jiangsu Feng looked at Xuan Kun. The young man's face was unusually calm and resolute, and he spoke seriously.
"Although my father has passed away, I, Jiang Sufeng, am his son. As long as I reach the level of strength, I will definitely retake the Five Elements Sect."
After hearing this, Jiang Zhiwei stopped crying, took out the red talisman from her arms, held it in front of her with both hands, looked at the red talisman with red eyes and said.
"This talisman...is the real treasure [Flame Pearl] talisman that my father refined for the two of us before he died, using his life-defining magic weapon, the Flame Pearl. He wanted to protect us one last time after his death...for the two of us."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Kun's face showed no joy or sadness. He sighed softly and nodded.
"Alas! Is that really the case? As parents, even after death, we want to protect our children one last time."
"It seems... no one from the Five Elements Sect's headquarters has survived..."
Xuan Kun pondered for a moment before saying, "If you two meet me, follow me! I'll find a place for you two to stay, hide away, and cultivate in peace. Once you've achieved your elixir formation and have the strength to protect yourself, you can come out again."
Jiang Zhiwei and Jiang Sufeng were about to speak when they heard this, but Xuan Kun interrupted them.
"I know you want to join me in the battle, but your cultivation is too weak. It's better for you to cultivate peacefully now. Once you've achieved Dan Formation, come out and help me!"
He laughed in his heart, "After all, I don't want to bring two burdens with me. A Yuanying strongman traveling alone is the most terrifying."
