Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying were not interested in where the Great Wilderness was heading. They came here for Hao Ling Jiuyao anyway. Now that Hao Ling Jiuyao's new life was initially on track, Jiang Xinxin felt like traveling around the Great Wilderness.

Of course Shi Ying couldn't bear to see Jiang Xinxin suffer, so he simply left two puppets to watch over the academy. He had already followed Jiang Xinxin down the mountain. However, apart from the puppets doing chores in the academy who had received instructions, the only other people who knew that Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying were no longer in the academy were Xiang Liu and Ye Shiqi, who had extraordinary intuition.

However, neither of them were talkative people, so they quickly forgot about the matter. After all, they still had to take the courses and they had not missed out on learning anything.

The Great Wilderness is too vast and sparsely populated, so even though Jiang Xinxin had spread the news of the academy's existence and enrollment throughout the Great Wilderness early on, and had also demonstrated her own strength, even though many ordinary people, ordinary monsters, and lower-level gods wanted to enter the academy to seek a different path, it was actually very difficult to put it into practice.

Firstly, even if everyone knew where the academy was, the road to the academy was full of hardships for ordinary humans, monsters and lower-level gods. Many humans, monsters and lower-level gods had never left the area within 20 miles of their residence in their entire lives, let alone traveling far to find Mount Buzhou.

Therefore, not many people were able to take part in the trials in the past two years. So although Jiang Xinxin did want to go out for fun at the beginning, it was more for the purpose of finding out the real situation of ordinary people, and by the way, selecting some people from various places, teaching them to read and write, and then letting them enlighten the people.

Thinking of the intentional or unintentional obstruction within Xiyan Country, Jiang Xinxin sighed helplessly and said to Shi Ying: "To the east and south is Haoling Country. Although Haoling Country seems to be friendly to the academy because of Haoling Jiuyao, the four largest tribes in Haoling Country are secretly obstructing ordinary people from coming to the academy."

"To the west and north is Xiyan Country, which is almost blatantly obstructing the actions of ordinary people, so now it's best for us to choose the southwest direction. Although there are high mountains and deep valleys over there, there are many monsters entrenched there, but since gods, humans, and monsters live together in the Great Wilderness, we can't discriminate against the monsters."

Shi Ying was also filled with emotion. This was the first time he encountered a world like the Great Wilderness. In other worlds, demons and monsters were either completely extinct or they always appeared in a negative light.

In the Great Wilderness, three races, gods, humans, and monsters, live together. In fact, only the high-level gods and the royal families and clans established by the middle-level gods are in power. Many monsters are extremely rejected by the powerless humans, so the monsters can only appear as slaves or even a tool for profit. They cannot even walk openly and safely in the Great Wilderness.

Shi Ying also agreed with this. "It's ridiculous. There is obviously a lot of immortal spirit energy in this wilderness. There are gods, humans, and monsters, and they can all practice cultivation. But they don't respect strength, but instead pay attention to bloodline. I really don't know how to evaluate it."

Jiang Xinxin could understand why the world was heading this way. "Perhaps it's because those in power benefit the most from bloodlines, so they all unanimously promote such a ridiculous thing as a law."

Although it has been decided to end this outdated system that should be swept into the trash as soon as possible, if we want to help the demon race, we must not allow them to gain military power right away, otherwise the weak human race will really only be able to feed on the blood of the demon race.

Therefore, what Jiang Xinxin and Shi Ying taught the demon clan were only the basic breathing techniques, writing, and arithmetic.

Time passed peacefully for twenty years. These twenty years were enough for the human race to replace a new generation, but for the demon race and the god race, it was as if time had never passed. But for the returning King Sun Xuan of Xiyan, these twenty years were really sad.

First, the Fifth King and the Seventh King, who already had a lot of power, joined forces to ruin the job he had taken on to renovate the old palace of Chenrong Kingdom, causing him to almost lose the trust of the Central Plains clans. Later, the Fifth King and the Seventh King simply resorted to assassination again and had him poisoned once again.

Although Hao Ling Jiuyao specially returned to Xi Yan Kingdom from the academy to personally detoxify and heal his wounds this time, he still lost a lot of life. Even his originally above-average talent was damaged as if it had been bitten by a dog, and his spiritual power was completely dissipated.

After Xuan Xuan learned his true situation from Hao Ling Jiu Yao, he didn't even have time to feel sad or angry. He immediately pulled Hao Ling Jiu Yao to act pitiful: "Xiao Yao, now that my life span has been shortened, and my job has been ruined, I can only pretend to be a playboy like Fang Feng Bei, acting like a lustful person who lingers in a land of orioles and flowers."

"In fact, my grandfather knows that I am determined to unify the Great Wilderness. He probably also understands that I am doing this just to cover up my tracks so that my two uncles won't notice me. But if I don't have much time left, I'm afraid he will really reconsider me..."

Hao Ling Jiuyao originally wanted to suggest that Dixuan conceal his true situation from the outside world, but at this moment, even though what Dixuan said was very reasonable, she always felt that something was wrong, so she did not agree immediately. However, she did not expect that this would make Dixuan suspicious of her, and the two of them have been estranged since then.

When Xuan used a little more force in his hands, Hao Ling Jiuyao finally reacted. Although she solemnly agreed to Xuan's request, she no longer had the interest to travel all over the wilderness to find elixirs for him. Xuan also didn't know what he had missed.

Seeing the King of Xiyan after a long time, Hao Ling Jiuyao felt that the ruthless monarch in front of her was still as ruthless as ever, and even though the murderous aura in his body had been restrained, it was still very sharp. Her cultivation level had no effect on it, but it reminded her of the day when her mother went to the battle.

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other in silence, and it was King Xi Yan who spoke first: "You look half like your grandmother..."

Hao Ling Jiuyao sneered, "Even though I still remember what my grandmother looked like, I can't tell how I look like her. This is probably because from the moment I saw my grandmother, she looked old and wrinkled."

King Xiyan still remembered what his late queen Xilinglei looked like when she was young, but he felt very uncomfortable being stabbed by a junior. However, when he looked at his granddaughter, he could only try his best to comfort himself: "You have learned to be sharp-tongued just like your grandmother. If you don't restrain yourself, you will suffer in the future."

Hao Ling Jiu Yao just found it a little unbelievable, but she was not interested in arguing with King Xi Yan, so she just said: "Young people are all like this. Even if they are talented, they will be sharp-tongued when they encounter trouble."

King Xi Yan naturally felt a little guilty towards his wife Xiling Lei. After all, he had used her completely. Now Xiling Lei's family had even withdrawn from the Central Plains and fled to the southwest to settle down. Even her legitimate bloodline was left with only a grandson and a granddaughter.

A woman used everything she and her family had to build the Xiyan Kingdom. He also wiped out all the power of the Xiling family. What else could he not be satisfied with?

But when Hao Ling Jiuyao saw King Xi Yan's face full of reminiscence and a hint of guilt, she just felt a little disgusted. It was so boring, she said sarcastically in her heart with a pout.

However, although he felt a little pity for his ill-fated granddaughter, King Xi Yan still began to use everything from her without hesitation. He sighed with a look of regret and said, "Now your grandmother and I only have you and Xuanxuan as our bloodline. You two siblings should support each other in the future and don't follow my old path."

Hao Ling Jiuyao was willing to believe that the old man in front of her was indeed sincere at this moment, but she also understood that a hero like King Xi Yan, even if he looked old and weak, was still not someone that a green hand like her could contend with. So even though she didn't agree with it in her heart, she pretended to recall the past and said, "Brother Xuan and I have agreed to accompany each other since we were young. Even though I am in the academy now, I am naturally thinking of him in my heart. Otherwise, why would I rush back from the academy when I heard that he was in danger?"
