Chapter 9 - Chapter 9 Ah Huang

I told you to learn, not to invade her Sea of Consciousness!

You're really quite direct and crude.

Jiang Cheng couldn't help but be speechless.

But what's done is done, and there's nothing much to say. Besides, this way indeed saves a lot of trouble.

At least this little girl looks like she knows everything now.

The only downside is feeling a bit sorry for Ji Linghan; she was just so expectant.

"So do you understand things now?"

"Uh-huh." The little girl nodded like a pecking chicken.

"You know everything she knows?"

"Yeah." The little girl sweetly replied.

Jiang Cheng rubbed his smooth chin.

"Then let me test you, where is this place?"

"The northeastern corner of the Forbidden Land in Qinglan Prefecture, Feiyun State."

"How many high-level sects are there in Qinglan Prefecture?"

"There are seventeen sects with strength comparable to the Feixian Sect, and one sect and one noble family that surpass these eight major sects."

The little girl answered without hesitation, not even needing to think.

"And what are that sect and noble family?"

"They are the Red Sun Sect and the Duanmu Family. Both have cultivators in the Spirit Platform Realm."

Jiang Cheng nodded in satisfaction; he actually didn't know this information.

"Hmm, nice!"

"Hee hee..."

Receiving his praise, the little girl felt very satisfied and snuggled into his arms.

"Since you know everything now..." Jiang Cheng coaxed.

"Then you should know I'm a man, should call me dad, right?"

"I don't understand what mom is saying."

The little girl's long eyelashes fluttered, her eyes full of innocence.

This little, and you've already learned to pretend, huh!

Jiang Cheng's eyes twinkled: "You don't have a name yet, let me give you one."

The little girl immediately clapped her chubby little hands, her face full of joy.

"Okay, okay, please name me, mom!"

"When you were born, a yellow light shot up into the sky, so we'll call you Ah Huang from now on."

The little girl's pout appeared instantly, the joy on her face turned into anger, and she loudly protested.

"No, no, I don't want such an ugly name!"

Having obtained the common knowledge from Ji Linghan's memory, she certainly knew that the name Ah Huang is usually given to puppies.

"Whether you want it or not! This is a name given by your parents!"

Jiang Cheng grinned ferociously; you killed dad once right after you were born, and I haven't even held you accountable yet!

"A cheap name is easy to raise; it's all for your own good. Unless you change to calling me dad, there's no name change for you."

"Humph!"

Ah Huang glared at him intensely, seeming to try using her gaze to force him to back down.

But Brother Cheng is no pushover, even though those childish eyes are endearing even when angry, this is a matter of principle!

Thus, the big and the small stared at each other like this.

After a long time, Ah Huang finally muttered a sentence.

"Mom's the worst!"

She still didn't change how she addressed him; it seems this matter will be a lasting standoff with Jiang Cheng.

Although she said the worst, her little hands wrapped around Jiang Cheng's neck didn't loosen at all.

"Ah Huang needs to be obedient."

Jiang Cheng smiled as he patted her head.

Just as he finished speaking, the sound of wind came from afar.

Soon, three figures appeared in front of him.

One of them was someone he was very familiar with, none other than Yao Qiulin, whose cultivation he had copied.

As for the other two, judging by their age and attire, they should also be elders of the Extreme Moon Sect like Yao Qiulin.

"You wretch, you're the one who killed my daughter!"

Previously, his split soul was killed, revealing the location and Jiang Cheng's appearance.

Originally, he was at Feixian Sect holding a celebratory gathering, but now he hurriedly rushed over for revenge.

The other two elders were his invited helpers.

"Die!"

The enmity of killing one's daughter is irreconcilable; Yao Qiulin unsheathed his long sword, emanating radiant beams in midair.

Regarding this move, Jiang Cheng saw through even his liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys; wasn't it just the Crescent Moon Swordsmanship he had copied?

If the opponent was only Yao Qiulin, he could have had a fight.

After all, whatever he knows, Jiang Cheng knows too, with identical cultivation and combat experience.

Ending in a draw shouldn't be a problem.

The issue is that the other two elders look like they are no less powerful than Yao Qiulin, and Brother Cheng really has no confidence in taking on three.

"Elder Yao, hold your hand!"

"Let us ask a few questions first."

At the critical moment, the other two elders stopped Yao Qiulin.

"Are you trying to prevent me from avenging myself?" Yao Qiulin was furious, almost unrecognizable.

"Brother Yao, calm down a little..."

The two elders waved their hands.

"Boy, did you just see a yellow beam shooting into the sky here?"

"Correct, as long as you answer truthfully, we can spare your life!"

The spectacle when Ah Huang was born was too grand.

The three had seen it during their journey, just unsure of the exact location.

They didn't know what the light was, but even a fool could guess it was most likely a rare treasure.

Mentioning this, even the furious Yao Qiulin calmed down.

Revenge must be taken, but it could be postponed.

"If I tell you, will you not kill me?"

Jiang Cheng seemed genuinely tempted.

The two elders hurriedly patted their chests to assure him.

"Of course, we old fellows never lie!"

Though they said that, in reality, they were thinking, not killing doesn't mean not harming.

Besides, even if we promise, others haven't.

Capture him and deliver him to Elder Yao to handle slowly.

"Alright, over there."

Jiang Cheng casually pointed in a direction.

Those little tricks of the three, he'd seen them a hundred times, how could he truly believe them?

He was considering how to escape.

Hiding till tomorrow when his resurrection cooldown ends, then he could continue to show off... uh, he meant, continue to eliminate evildoers.

But Ji Linghan was still lying on the ground.

If he ran, even if the three wanted to chase him, they wouldn't ignore her.

Brother Cheng wouldn't leave his people to die.

Not to mention he has a new daughter now.

But escaping with two people would definitely get him caught.

"Mom, are they the bad people who want to kill you?"

Ah Huang in his embrace suddenly blinked her big, black eyes as she curiously asked like an inquisitive baby.

Jiang Cheng almost couldn't help but hit himself, how could he forget this little girl is a big killer?
