Chapter 1536 The Untamed 16
After Jiang Cheng separated from the brothers Lan Huan and Lan Zhan, he went directly in the direction where Wei Ying was.
Wei Ying did not stay in the Lotus Pier, but appeared near Yiling. It can be seen that he still chose to go to the Wen family to study. I don’t know how much suffering he has suffered these days.
Sure enough, when Jiang Cheng was looking for him, he heard Nie Huaisang say that Wen Chao had put Jueling Powder in everyone's food. If you take too much of this thing, it may really dissipate all the spiritual power in the body and also damage the foundation.
However, all the food and water provided by the Wen family were spiked with Jueling Powder. If one did not want to starve to death or die of thirst, one had to eat it with gritted teeth, conserve one's strength first, and then think of other ways.
Wei Ying was the main target and was thrown into the dungeon and tortured by Wen Chao.
Jiang Cheng didn't leave Nie Huaisang without anything. He quietly gave him a bag of antidote for Jueling Powder: "You have a smart brain. It depends on how you use this."
Nie Huaisang quickly took one pill himself. Although his aptitude was as good as that of a dog, having spiritual power and not having spiritual power were two completely different things!
Nie Huaisang clasped his fists and thanked him: "Thank you, Brother Jiang. I will repay you for your kindness today someday!"
Jiang Cheng slapped him on the back of the head in anger and said, "Go back and have a good talk with Sect Leader Nie. After this incident, let's work together to revive the Nie clan and then talk about other things."
Jiang Cheng was about to go find Wei Ying, but Nie Huaisang gritted his teeth and stopped him, lowering his voice and telling him something that made him very angry: "Brother Jiang, I heard from Wen Chao that he wanted to find an opportunity to go to Yunmeng to propose to Miss Jiang, and he mentioned Miss Jiang's identity as the only legitimate daughter of the five great families, and it was quite humiliating."
Nie Huaisang didn't mention that when Wen Chao talked about Jiang Yanli, he was probably concerned about Wen Qing standing next to him, so his humiliation was evident in his words but he didn't say it openly. He only used the fact that Jiang Yanli and Jin Zixuan had broken off their engagement as an excuse, and his words were very disparaging to Jiang Yanli.
But Jiang Cheng could also imagine what kind of reaction Wen Chao would have, so he just snorted coldly, thanked Nie Huaisang, and quietly slipped out.
Wei Ying's condition was indeed very bad. If he had only been drugged with the Absolute Spirit Powder and locked up in a dungeon, he would not have suffered a mental breakdown. The terrible thing was that Wen Chao somehow knew that he was always afraid of dogs, so he locked up the wolfhound trained by the Wen family with him.
Even though he didn't suffer too much psychological trauma from being chased by wild dogs when he was a child because Jiang Fengmian rescued him in time, he would always feel scared when he saw a dog, which would indeed affect his actions for a short period of time.
But this time, in such a small space as the dungeon, the wolfhounds specially trained by the Wen family all had the blood of monsters. Not only had they seen blood, but they had also hurt people. If Wen Qing had not secretly given him four silver needles with powerful sleeping pills, he might have been eaten by these wolfhounds early because of his mental breakdown.
When Jiang Cheng arrived, Wei Ying had already killed four wolfhounds with his bare hands. Although exhausted, he was still huddled in a corner of the dungeon, restless.
Jiang Cheng didn't see many guards in the dungeon along the way, which showed that Wen Chao had specially transferred people to prepare these "entertainment programs" for Wei Ying, which made it more convenient for Jiang Cheng to perform.
He broke the chain of the prison door with one palm and appeared in front of Wei Ying. Wei Ying cried with joy and threw himself into Jiang Cheng's arms: "A Cheng..."
Wei Ying thought that he seemed to always be rescued by the Jiang family, or rather, always by Jiang Cheng.
The last time was when he was still young and was chased around by a group of wild dogs. Just when he was about to lose all his strength and die at the hands of the wild dogs, Jiang Cheng brought people to find him.
Even though Jiang Cheng arrived a little late, he was still trying to calm his emotions that were about to collapse.
Jiang Cheng didn't expect that Wei Ying would encounter this again. He directly set a fire in the dungeon, released everyone else, and took Wei Ying towards Muxi Mountain.
Wei Ying no longer had the energy to care where Jiang Cheng was taking him. Jiang Cheng explained, "Lan Zhan told me that the proverbs about Yin Iron that have been circulating over the years are not limited to the first two sentences. There are also two sentences at the end, 'The energy from all directions will all return to the Black Tortoise'. I have already purified the Yin Iron fragments we got, and I also heard that there is a Black Tortoise that failed to kill a god hundreds of years ago in Muxi Mountain."
"So, Ah Xian, we have to go to Muxi Mountain to kill the Slaughtering Black Tortoise, get the last unseen piece of Yin Iron from its stomach, and then go find Wen Ruohan."
No matter what words of comfort Wei Ying said at this moment, they would probably just pass through his ears. It would be better to find something to do, put everything aside for today, and talk about it later.
Upon hearing this, Wei Ying really pulled himself together, and even asked Jiang Cheng for the antidote to the Absolute Spirit Powder, "…But, our swords have been confiscated, and it may not be convenient for us to go back and get them now…"
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but laugh and said, "Ah Xian, have you forgotten? Your Suibian has developed spiritual consciousness. As long as you recover your cultivation, even if it is thousands of miles away, as long as you call it, Suibian will fly to you."
Wei Ying forced out a slightly bitter smile and scratched his head embarrassedly. He really had forgotten about this.
They first found a place for Wei Ying to have a good meal and rest. As expected, he was a little stressed and couldn't sleep well at night. Jiang Cheng had to lie on the bed beside him to sleep with him so that he could check on his condition at any time. Fortunately, he didn't have a high fever. When he got up early the next morning, he looked more energetic.
The two of them immediately went to Muxi Mountain, and because of Wei Ying's escape, Wen Chao sent people to the surrounding towns to search for Wei Ying. Naturally, he forgot about the massacre of Xuanwu in Muxi Mountain, but thought of many other ways to torment everyone.
However, Nie Huaisang was a kind-hearted man, and he had the antidote to the Jueling Powder given by Jiang Cheng in his hand. In just a few days, he won over many of the people who had been good friends with Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying when they were in the Cloud Recesses. When the news came from Gusu that the Lan family was raising the banner to attack the Wen family, a group of young people here broke out of the Supervisory Office and fled back, causing Wen Ruohan to lose his hostage.
Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying rushed to Muxi Mountain without encountering any problems, and even killed the Slaughtering Black Tortoise with great ease. However, he did not expect that the pool where the Slaughtering Black Tortoise lived was filled with deep resentment. Jiang Cheng did not care, but Wei Ying was still in a bad mood because he had not yet gotten over the siege by wolfhounds. He was directly affected by the thick resentment and fell into an illusion.
This illusion has no effect on the physical body, but it will consume spiritual consciousness and energy. Jiang Cheng did not have time to save the souls that were cruelly devoured by the Slaughtering Black Tortoise. He quickly cast a spell to protect Wei Ying's spirit platform and stuffed him with a few Gu Yuan Dan to replenish his energy, fearing that he would not be able to come back if something went wrong.
