Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1573 The Untamed 53

Lan Zhan has adapted very well to life in Lotus Pier. Apart from being overly clingy to Jiang Cheng and never allowing Jiang Cheng to be in a separate space from him, he is always a little more excited at night and likes to wear Jiang Cheng's underwear. Everything else is no different from before.

For Jiang Cheng, life seemed to have been shortcut. The Supervisory Office in Yiling was soon declared completed, and the four major families would send disciples to garrison there. Meng Yao still had things to do, so she stayed in the Supervisory Office in Yiling temporarily. One day, Wei Ying left a letter and ran away, but cut off any contact, leaving Jiang Cheng with no clue how to find anyone.

We can only send people to look for it in the direction of Yiling and Jinlintai first.

At this time, Jiang Yanli stood up and said that she already had a candidate for son-in-law, who was Nie Huaisang, the second son of the Qinghe Nie family.

"Nie Huaisang?!" Jiang Cheng couldn't help but lose his voice. He really couldn't understand why Jiang Yanli and Nie Huaisang ended up together.

Jiang Yanli smiled and explained, "I just think the Second Young Master of the Nie family is quite interesting, and he's quite happy to spend most of his time outside the unclean world."

"As for the children," Jiang Yanli's smile grew more pronounced as she spoke of this topic, and she seemed more relaxed. "We will have two children, one with my surname and one with Nie Huaisang's."

Jiang Yanli then looked at Jiang Cheng and Lan Zhan with a hint of apology, "In the past, I only considered that the Jiang family needed an heir who could stabilize the current situation, so I kept trying to persuade you to have a child as soon as possible. Now think about it, the Jiang family has been carried forward and flourished in your hands, Ah Cheng. You have fully fulfilled your responsibilities, and I can't ask for anything else."

This is just one of the reasons. Another more important reason is that she feels that Wei Ying must be doing something very dangerous, so if she wants to find Wei Ying and call him back, the only possible reason is her marriage or the birth of Jiang Cheng and Lan Zhan's child.

It is definitely too late for Jiang Cheng and Lan Zhan to start having children now, but her marriage can be quickly arranged. When Wei Ying receives the news, he will definitely show up and send a message back.

Jiang Cheng was worried about many things, so he didn't see Jiang Yanli's plan for a while. Lan Zhan could see that Jiang Yanli had something else to say, but he couldn't guess what Jiang Yanli was thinking, so naturally he had no way to tell Jiang Cheng.

However, the marriage between Jiang Yanli and Nie Huaisang went very quickly. It was decided before the New Year, and they were just waiting for the first auspicious day after the New Year to hold the wedding.

The Jiang and Nie families were getting married, so the candidate from the Jiang family was naturally the only eldest daughter, while the candidate from the Nie family was not the clan leader Nie Mingjue, but Nie Mingjue's supposedly incompetent brother Nie Huaisang. The age difference between the two was a full seven years!

Just as Jiang Yanli hoped, the news of her engagement with Nie Huaisang quickly reached Wei Ying's ears, but she had miscalculated Wei Ying this time, because what Wei Ying was going to do was very important. He even prepared a gift for Jiang Yanli in advance, just waiting for Jiang Yanli or Jiang Cheng to discover it.

So when the news came that Jin Guangshan died in the bed of a group of women, Wei Ying acted decisively and cooperated with Meng Yao to spread the news that the Jin family had been using monsters to run the Colosseum for generations.

Mrs. Jin was originally sad but also happy and excited as she held the funeral for Jin Guangshan. Her son Jin Zixuan had successfully taken over the position of the head of the Jin family. Now they just had to wait until Jin Guangshan was buried to clear out those who were unwilling to obey them.

As everyone knows, Jin Guangshan's reputation is terrible, but Jin Zixuan, the newly appointed leader of the Jin clan, has a good reputation. At least everyone knows his integrity.

But Mrs. Jin and Jin Zixuan had never expected that the Jin family had secretly set up an arena with monsters, and that the arena was located in the back mountain of Jinlin Terrace, which made it impossible for them to argue.

The Jin clan's Colosseum had been exposed, but there was still no news from Wei Ying. Jiang Yanli was still able to hold her own, but Jiang Cheng couldn't just sit around waiting in the Lotus Pier any longer, so he asked Lan Zhan, "Lan Zhan, I'm going to the Yiling Mass Burial Mounds. Do you want to come with me?"

Lan Zhan directly held Jiang Cheng's hand that was placed on the table, "Wherever you go, there I will be."

When they left Lotus Pier and headed straight for Yiling, Jiang Cheng was in a very heavy mood. Lan Zhan didn't know how to comfort him. He just silently prayed that Wei Ying's situation had not reached a point where it could not be handled.

And he still felt a little bit like he was being ignored again because of Wei Ying.

No one knew what Wei Ying had done, or whether the Heavenly Dao of this world had also intervened. In short, Jiang Cheng couldn't find any trace of Wei Ying when they were in Lotus Pier before, and it was even harder to find him now that he was near Yiling. But Meng Yao was here, and even if he didn't know Wei Ying's whereabouts, he must know a lot of clues.

Seeing Jiang Cheng, Meng Yao sighed inwardly. Whether he was standing from the perspective of Wei Ying or Jiang Cheng, he could understand. However, although he used to be more inclined towards Jiang Cheng, the sect leader who had been so kind to him, now he had to be more inclined towards Wei Ying in Wei Ying's affairs.

Even though Jiang Cheng claimed that he didn't know Meng Yao well enough, seeing that he always avoided the subject, Jiang Cheng knew that he must have made an agreement with Wei Ying.

Jiang Cheng was more or less aware of Meng Yao's thoughts, so he had to be more explicit: "No matter how important the matter, I don't agree with sacrificing one person to save everyone else, because we don't know who will need to be sacrificed at that moment."

"So I prefer to actively seek more possibilities before everything reaches a dead end. If there are none, I will create them myself."

Meng Yao was indeed deeply touched.

To be honest, Meng Yao was really touched by being protected without hesitation, but he also understood that although Jiang Cheng was unwilling to sacrifice anyone else, he had actually made plans to sacrifice himself in the event of the worst situation.

So Meng Yao just smiled and said, "How is the Sect Master's thoughts any different from ours?"

"Whether it's clearing the mass graves, returning the Yin Iron, or connecting with the underworld to establish an orderly reincarnation cycle, which one isn't a matter of great concern to all the people of the world?"

"The Sect Master said that he is unwilling to sacrifice any innocent person for the sake of the people of the world, but doesn't the Sect Master have any intention of sacrificing himself?"

Jiang Cheng was really at a loss for words. "Which eye of yours saw me sacrificing myself? Or which ear of yours heard me taking the fight myself?"

Lan Zhan interrupted Jiang Cheng and said to Meng Yao, "You're right. No matter what happens, it's a matter of great importance to the lives of all people in the world. Therefore, Wei Ying will definitely pay a huge price, and there's a high possibility that he will even sacrifice himself. That's why we have to find Wei Ying quickly and can't let him do anything stupid. Otherwise, Ah Cheng will carry a huge burden for the rest of his life."
