Chapter 534 - 532: Just Because Jiang Qingge Seems Foolish Now Doesn’t Mean She Was Foolish in Her Past Life
If this is really the case, then it’s quite interesting.
It’s equivalent to reducing the difficulty of searching for the Power of Origin worldwide.
However, Lu Ye finds this quite normal.
After all, she was the Empress in her past life, her fame overshadowing the Nine Netherworld. Just because Jiang Qingge looks foolish now doesn’t mean she was the same in her previous life.
When she realized she was about to fall, she might have left some contingencies.
The Power of Origin now actively seeking her might be one of those contingencies.
"This can also be considered a good thing. As long as you are familiar with your power at the Mortal Realm Eighth Layer, even if someone tries to confront you later, you’ll have enough defense power," Lu Ye said.
"Am I now stronger than those top sect leaders in the Northern Territory?" Jiang Qingge curiously asked.
Since she spent most of her time in the Northern Territory, Jiang Qingge instantly thought of comparing herself to the once-renowned Three Great Sects there.
"Not just stronger, but significantly stronger," Lu Ye smiled slightly.
The Three Great Sects from before—Cyan Thunder Sect had long faded away, unable to be traced in the Northern Territory for years and completely hidden. Given Lu Ye’s current mindset and realm, as long as they don’t provoke him, he has no interest in finding their secret location.
As for the other two, Red Cloud Sect and Myriad Laws Sect, Xiao Qingyin is now at the Mortal Realm Second Layer. Lu Ye reckons that the ancestor of Myriad Laws Sect, over the years, is likely at most at the Mortal Realm Third and Fourth Layers.
Compared to Jiang Qingge’s current Mortal Realm Eighth Layer, the difference is indeed significant.
Suddenly, Lu Ye remembered that there seemed to be someone else also at the Mortal Realm Eighth Layer...
Youluo.
She didn’t send any messages to him afterward, leading Lu Ye to suspect she might be in a long closed-door cultivation.
Otherwise, given Youluo’s personality, she probably wouldn’t be able to endure it for so long.
"I never thought I’d have such high cultivation..." Jiang Qingge clenched her slender hand, curious, "I feel like I could punch a mountain apart now!"
Lu Ye shook his head; she truly didn’t understand what her power represented.
Not just one mountain, but even five would be possible.
It seems it’s time to find her some real combat opportunities; otherwise, she’ll have no battle experience at all.
Yet, with her current lack of combat proficiency, it’s not suitable for her to find cultivators of the same realm as opponents.
After thinking for a moment, an idea came to Lu Ye’s mind...
How about having her suppress her strength and practice with bandits from various regions?
It seems my first official battle back then also started with a group of bandits.
Thinking it’s feasible, Lu Ye said, "Your current problem is a lack of real combat experience."
"So, find some time over the next few days to seek out bandits entrenched throughout the regions. Suppress your strength and see if you can develop some real combat experience."
Experience can be honed through low-tier battles, as more profound experience, at its core, is nothing but who is more cunning and has more tricks up their sleeve.
Once you’re proficient at low-tier, enhancing details will be much easier.
"Is that okay? I’ll follow your lead." Jiang Qingge curiously agreed, coincidentally recalling past events.
Once, this person and her sister went out as escorts and had a run-in with bandits on the road...
Thinking back, it’s highly likely that after that near-death battle, her sister began to see him differently.
So... bandits are truly detestable!
As Jiang Qingge thought of this, a trace of murderous intent really began to emanate from her.
Standing next to her, Lu Ye slightly nodded, unexpected that Jiang Qingge would get into character so quickly, showing such battle intent soon after hearing about going to kill bandits to hone combat experience.
Not bad.
"I’ve got some time now, my husband. Shall we set off now? I’ve never been on a long journey with you before." Jiang Qingge said seriously.
"Sure, tidy up a bit, and we’ll go shortly."
Seeing Jiang Qingge brimming with enthusiasm, seemingly very interested in honing herself, Lu Ye gladly agreed.
One incense stick later, the two of them left their secluded place.
Although Lu Ye had no immediate intel on bandit activities, he had ideas in mind.
Moments later, he brought Jiang Qingge to a small town and started asking around.
Initially, the townsfolk were too afraid to speak and all shook their heads, saying they didn’t know anything.
After all, if Lu Ye and Jiang Qingge were sent by bandits to gather intel...
The ones to suffer would still be them.
Yet, many bandits had committed heinous acts, leaving many victims. Some who had family or possessions taken in the past approached Lu Ye with hope.
"Did you say there are bandits two hundred miles away on Thin Sand Mountain?" Lu Ye questioned a frail middle-aged man.
"Yes, master, what I said is true. My daughter was taken by those beasts," the frail man said, bowing to the ground after speaking, kowtowing several times.
"I don’t know what you’re planning to do, but thank you, great masters!"
After that, he got up and stumbled away.
"These damned bandits are truly hateful, destroying a family like that." Seeing this, Jiang Qingge whispered, this time genuinely carrying a trace of killing intent.
"In that case, let’s head to Thin Sand Mountain first and take a look." Lu Ye thought for a moment.
The reason for choosing bandits as Jiang Qingge’s training enemies is Lu Ye’s desire to eradicate as many as possible from the Northern Territory.
Of course, it’s not just idle work; it’s coincidentally necessary to raise Jiang Qingge, so this was chosen.
The next moment, two figures left the small town.
Other passersby quietly started discussing as they watched the two leave.
"What do you think those two are up to, asking about that?"
"I think they might’ve learned some skills and are planning to wander the world doing justice?"
"Ah, young and idealistic, this kind of justice is normal at first, but soon they’ll see reality and won’t be so reckless. The bandits on Thin Sand Mountain aren’t ordinary, not to mention those backing them, even their leader is an Innate Realm expert!"
Innate Realm expert...
Hearing these words, many townsfolk were slighted shaken.
For them, the most powerful figures they usually encounter are only at this realm.
