NOVEL NEXT Chapter 36 Gifted with Heavenly Souls, Looking Down on Others (2)
If it weren’t for the system’s requirement to physically touch the target to bind them, Jiang Minghan wouldn’t have come up with this method.
Now, looking at Xiao Hongdou’s various cultivation techniques and divine abilities, they were all quite ordinary. What Jiang Minghan valued was the golden light of her merit protection.
Compared to Su Mingyue, Xiao Hongdou had an additional talent: the so-called Merit Soul Light, which was likely the pure, untainted light of her soul.
“Ding, synchronization progress at 30%, synchronizing Biluochao Sheng Jue…”
“Ding…”
“Ding, triggered eightfold Heavenly Dao feedback, synchronizing talent Merit Soul Light, beginning deduction…”
“Ding, obtained talent Heavenly Soul Favor, within the soul domain, favored by heaven, the soul is indestructible, immune to soul attacks.”
A series of system notifications rang in Jiang Minghan’s mind.
He felt a sudden burst of golden light descending into his deep, dark mud ball , illuminating the grand, dark temple of his soul .
Vast, boundless soul power surged within the soul , like great waves rising and falling.
This was an incredibly terrifying soul power, with numerous Dao runes passing through.
If looked at closely, one would see Jiang Minghan’s soul transformed into an innate deity, sitting in the soul , exuding a cold, supreme aura, emanating strands of five-colored immortal light, causing the soul space to tremble slightly.
Soon, these fluctuations flashed through the soul , returning to tranquility.
Jiang Minghan’s expression also returned to normal.
“Sister Hongdou…”
At this moment, with a creak, the courtyard door was suddenly pushed open.
Xiao Yan, who had gone to the back of Nanque Sacred City early in the morning to practice absorbing the morning light, hadn’t expected to see this scene, leaving him stunned.
Seeing the numerous beasts and riders outside the stone gambling shop, he realized Jiang Minghan must be there.
Feeling extremely uneasy, he rushed back, worried for Xiao Hongdou, but didn’t expect to see her blushing, falling into Jiang Minghan’s arms.
In that instant, Xiao Yan’s face turned extremely cold.
But he wasn’t an ordinary person. He quickly took a deep breath, regaining his composure.
Last night, he had thought it through. Without absolute life-saving strength, he wouldn’t easily show hostility towards Jiang Minghan.
“Sister, what happened?”
Xiao Yan asked calmly after recovering.
“I… I was pouring tea for Young Master Jiang just now, and I twisted my ankle. Fortunately, Young Master Jiang caught me.”
Xiao Hongdou felt her face heating up, nervous, explaining.
She didn’t know what had happened, as if something had hit her ankle, causing her pain and making her lose balance.
“I see. Sister, be more careful next time. Don’t spill tea on Young Master Jiang.”
Xiao Yan nodded, though he didn’t believe it at all.
As cultivators, would they trip and twist their ankles while walking?
The excuse was flimsy, but he didn’t bother to expose it.
After Xiao Hongdou suffered, she would understand how foolish her actions were.
“It seems Miss Hongdou’s younger brother isn’t very fond of me.”
“In that case, I’ll take my leave for now. Perhaps we can meet again another day, Miss Hongdou.”
At this moment, Jiang Minghan’s gentle voice sounded.
He wore a slight smile, standing up from the stone bench, ready to leave.
Having bound Xiao Hongdou, many things would be simpler. There was no need to continue gaining favor.
There’s a limit to everything. The rest would depend on Xiao Hongdou herself. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
It was evident Xiao Yan didn’t get along well with Qingxu Zi either.
When he entered, Qingxu Zi’s face darkened, showing displeasure.
Jiang Minghan chuckled inwardly. Sons of Luck, though favored by heaven, were also skilled at attracting hatred and ridicule.
“Ah…”
“Young Master Jiang, won’t you stay a while longer?”
Xiao Hongdou hadn’t expected Jiang Minghan to leave so soon, feeling surprised and more than a little reluctant.
“With Qingxu Holy Land as it is now, no one will dare bully it anymore. The ancestor’s task is complete.”
“I can now step back.”
Jiang Minghan smiled slightly.
With that, he didn’t wait for Xiao Hongdou’s response, leaving the courtyard and soon disappearing from the stone gambling shop.
Xiao Hongdou was stunned. Did this mean she wouldn’t see him again?
With a rumbling sound,
the street outside the stone gambling shop shook, thunder rolled, and the beasts and riders quickly left, raising clouds of dust.
Xiao Yan didn’t expect Jiang Minghan to leave so soon. Did he achieve his goal?
His brow furrowed, feeling more uneasy.
Even with his perspective from nine lifetimes of reincarnation, he couldn’t grasp Jiang Minghan’s thoughts and intentions.
This young man was terrifying.
“Brother, why did you say that? Young Master Jiang was kind enough to help us…”
Xiao Hongdou sighed, feeling helpless, then couldn’t help but lightly scold Xiao Yan.
To her, she and her master had been having a pleasant conversation with Jiang Minghan. Why did he suddenly leave?
It was largely due to Xiao Yan’s words and actions, displeasing him.
After all, Xiao Yan had spoken ill of Jiang Minghan behind his back yesterday. Just now, Jiang Minghan mentioned that her brother wasn’t fond of him.
Qingxu Zi glanced at Xiao Yan, shaking his head, “You’re lucky it was Young Master Jiang, a gentle and amiable young man, who wouldn’t hold a grudge. If it were anyone else, you’d have offended them already.”
Of course, it might also be because Xiao Yan was such a minor character that Jiang Minghan didn’t care.
It’s like knowing an ant or a weed on the roadside dislikes you. Would you care? Probably not; you’d just ignore it.
They weren’t on the same level or in the same world.
“Sister Hongdou…”
Xiao Yan was stunned, his face turning slightly ugly. He didn’t expect Xiao Hongdou to say that.
It was clear Jiang Minghan had achieved his goal and chose to leave.
She blamed him for it?
Could someone be so foolish due to infatuation?
Especially Qingxu Zi, looking down on him, thinking Jiang Minghan didn’t care about him?
Even with his mind tempered through nine lifetimes of reincarnation, Xiao Yan felt intense anger, clenching his fists tightly.
These foolish people looked down on him.

Back at the City Lord’s Mansion, Jiang Minghan suddenly thought of something and asked his followers, “Yuchu, your Nine-tailed Fox Clan should have affiliated clans in this domain, right?”
A black-dressed woman with an alluring appearance, exceptionally long legs, and porcelain-like skin stepped forward.
Hearing Jiang Minghan call her name, she seemed delighted, quickly answering, “Reporting to Master, the White Fox Clan affiliated with us is indeed nearby.”
Her black hair cascaded like a waterfall, her eyes tinged with red, and several soft, white fox tails trailing behind her, exuding a captivating allure.
