Grinding Cultivation Toward Martial Saint-Chapter 1275 - 181: Taixu Yin Yang Sword Breakthrough!
It is night.
Sky City is located on the mountain top, and after sunset, the temperature drops rapidly.
The evening breeze carries strands of coolness.
At this moment, the bright moon also climbs to the treetops.
"Master, the Marquis has asked me to convey a message; dinner is ready!" The maid who stepped into the courtyard saw Jiang Ning sheathing his sword before she spoke.
"Hold on! I’m going to change my clothes!" Jiang Ning said. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
"Yes, sir!" The maid responded, bowing her head.
Then Jiang Ning moved, his gaze sweeping across the panel.
[Skill]: Taixu Yin Yang Sword (Beginner 9789/10000)
The accumulation of experience value had deepened, with only the last bit left to reach the mastery level.
After closing the panel, he entered the room that had already been tidied and changed into proper attire.
The formal clothes were not suitable to wear while practicing swordplay.
A moment later.
Led by the maid, Jiang Ning walked across the brightly lit courtyard and corridors, then saw a three-story high building.
"Sir, ahead is the place where the Marquis has prepared the family banquet!" The maid whispered.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Ning’s heart jumped.
The drinking with three people at noon wasn’t formal, just sharing drinks in the back garden.
He hadn’t expected the Marquis to arrange a family banquet for the evening.
A family banquet is the highest form of hospitality for guests.
His heart stirred slightly, then he stepped forward.
...
On the other side.
A maid entered the hall in short, quick steps.
The columns of golden nanmu supported the triple eaves.
Golden palace lamps hung from the ceiling, the flickering candlelight casting bright reflections on the glass covers, illuminating the hall as if it were daytime.
The maid stepped softly on the carpet, without making a sound of footfalls.
She swiftly came to the man in the purple python robe, slightly crouched, with a respectful demeanor.
"Marquis, Mr. Jiang has arrived!"
Upon hearing this.
The man in the purple python robe opened his previously closed eyes.
"Serve the dishes!"
As he spoke, the entire hall began to bustle, with maids coming and going.
"Finally, we can start!" A handsome young man at the dining table showed a joyful expression.
"Tuo’er, mind your manners!" A beautiful woman shot the young man a glance and rebuked him softly.
At these words, the young man immediately restrained his expression and looked toward the main entrance.
The next moment.
He saw Jiang Ning followed by a maid.
"It’s rumored that Jiang Ning is extremely young and strikingly handsome; now upon seeing him, it’s indeed true!" The handsome young man immediately praised.
At this time, the beautiful woman beside him also nodded.
"The rumors may be exaggerated, but they won’t aimlessly spread."
"I previously heard my husband mention this person and thought the words were exaggerated; how could such a prodigy exist in the world? Now I realize it’s still my own narrow experience!"
The man in the python robe glanced at his wife and then said, "Madam, what do you think of him?"
"Very good!" The beautiful woman nodded: "Whether it’s age or current achievements, he surpasses his peers, and I suppose Rong’er would be satisfied with him, though I wonder if he would fancy Rong’er."
Their quiet conversation was clearly heard by Jiang Ning.
His heart moved, understanding the intent behind the Marquis and his wife’s words.
He felt a bit helpless.
Throughout his journey, he encountered too many people looking to arrange a marriage for him.
He understood but wasn’t willing to accept.
Especially now, even more so.
Then he quietly steadied his heart and calmly walked forward.
"Marquis!" Arriving at the dining table, Jiang Ning cupped his hands.
"Sit down! Tonight is a family banquet, no need to be so polite!" The man in the python robe raised his hand to signal.
"Thank you, Marquis!" Jiang Ning cupped his hands and then took his seat.
"Come, let me introduce; this is my wife, Xu." The man in the python robe said to Jiang Ning.
"Greetings to the Marquess!" Jiang Ning stood up and cupped his hands.
"Sit down! Speak while seated!" The beautiful woman smiled at Jiang Ning with squinting eyes, inadvertently revealing a few crow’s feet at the corners.
Clearly, this seemingly beautiful lady was not young.
Jiang Ning could tell at a glance that the Marquis’s wife, although well-maintained with martial arts accompanying her,
had not reached the Martial Arts Fourth Grade, not attaining the level of Immortal Muscle and Jade Bone.
Without Immortal Muscle and Jade Bone, it’s hard to truly maintain undiminished looks.
At this time.
The Marquess looked at Jiang Ning, nodding slightly in satisfaction.
"Tonight is a family banquet; don’t feel restrained, behave freely!"
"Yes!" Jiang Ning replied.
Then.
The man in the python robe introduced further to Jiang Ning: "This is my son, Zhou Tuo."
"So, he’s the young Marquis!" Jiang Ning showed a faint smile.
"Lord Jiang, I’ve long admired your name!" Zhou Tuo, at Xu’s side, spoke up.
At this moment.
The Purple Robe Marquis in the python robe said: "Call him Uncle Jiang!"
With these words, Jiang Ning and Zhou Tuo froze for a moment.
"Father, I..." Zhou Tuo began to speak but was halted by a glance from the Purple Robe Marquis.
"Jiang... Uncle!" He reluctantly called out, his face turning a bit red.
"Marquis, isn’t this a bit inappropriate?" Jiang Ning hesitated slightly in his tone.
"I know what you want to say. Tuo’er indeed is older than you by one or two years! But you interact with me as peers, so logically and emotionally, Tuo’er should call you uncle!" The Purple Robe Marquis said calmly.
"Then I’ll follow the Marquis’s arrangement!" Jiang Ning replied.
Upon hearing these words, a faint smile appeared on the Purple Robe Marquis’s face.
Ever since learning that Jiang Ning could withstand the Mountain and River Finger, he reevaluated Jiang Ning.
He must have stepped into the domain of the Invincible Grandmaster to achieve this.
