Legend of Swordsman

Chapter 6085: Cunning Villain?

This surprised Jian Wushuang greatly. In his impression, Gong Miaoyi was not someone who would bow her head, yet her son had such a different character.

He really wondered who the child’s father was and how good his personality had to be to raise such a son.

Jian Wushuang looked at the other person and smiled faintly, “No need to be nervous. I was an old acquaintance of your mother. I didn’t expect her to… sigh!”

He couldn’t help but sigh as he spoke.

“Mother…” Gong Ming took a deep breath, recalling what his mother had told him before. He wasn’t sure whether to say it or not, but he could feel that Jian Wushuang had no malice toward him.

However, what his mother said before her death was very different from what he saw now. Because before his mother fell, she had explained that in the future, if there was trouble, he could seek help from Jian Wushuang, but it depended on Jian Wushuang’s temperament at the time.

If Jian Wushuang had a violent temperament, then stay as far away as possible.

If he had a calm temperament, he still needed to be cautious.

At least observe for 30,000 to 50,000 eras before approaching.

But upon meeting him, Gong Ming felt that Jian Wushuang was not like what his mother described, a treacherous villain or a great demon.

Instead, he felt that Jian Wushuang was very kind to others.

He didn’t know how badly Jian Wushuang had harmed Gong Miaoyi in the past. If he had known, he wouldn’t have thought this way.

Jian Wushuang was kind to Gong Ming only because he felt he owed Gong Miaoyi back then. He would inquire about his well-being and even offer precious treasures.

This made Gong Ming doubt his mother’s character. Jian Wushuang seemed like a great philanthropist!

How could he be a treacherous villain?

“Dear nephew, if you encounter difficulties in the future, you can come to me with this token. Your Uncle Wushuang may not be able to do much, but I can still protect you in this Northern Spacetime!” Jian Wushuang didn’t exaggerate. In the entire Northern Spacetime, his main concern was Mie Sheng. Once he dealt with Mie Sheng, he would be almost invincible.

Protecting one person would be an easy task.

Moreover, he intended to make the other person a rising star in Qishen Temple in the future.

A grand blueprint had already formed in his mind, but with the threat of Mie Sheng, he couldn’t implement it. Once Mie Sheng was dealt with, it would be the time for Qishen Temple to expand.

Gong Ming was deeply moved upon receiving the token. He nodded solemnly and expressed his gratitude, “I will!”

After caring for the junior, Jian Wushuang began to prepare for the main task.

This time, returning to Qishen Temple, he had another matter to attend to.

It was related to the Beast God Weapon.

“Ahem!” He approached Zhen Ling, glanced at Wu Zuo, who was still bragging endlessly, and coughed twice, signaling that it was enough. He had a part in acquiring these treasures and couldn’t let Wu Zuo take all the credit.

Wu Zuo was in high spirits and didn’t pay attention to Jian Wushuang’s reminder, continuing to boast about his vast connections in the upper spacetime, making Zhen Ling’s eyes sparkle.

Without resolving Mie Sheng, he already fantasized about entering the upper spacetime and dominating the entire Northern Spacetime.

Jian Wushuang coughed for a while before pulling Zhen Ling back to reality.

“Well, Little Wu Zuo, why don’t you go talk to Shang first? We are not in a hurry!” Zhen Ling also felt that he was thinking too much and wanted to send Wu Zuo away.

But Wu Zuo was so engrossed in talking that he didn’t notice the signal.

If it weren’t for the sake of the treasures, Zhen Ling would have slapped Wu Zuo on the head. So lacking in awareness.

“No rush, no rush!” Jian Wushuang smiled awkwardly, “It’s rare for Brother Wu Zuo to be in such high spirits!”

“Forget it, we’ll talk next time. I know you have business to discuss!” Wu Zuo finally noticed Jian Wushuang behind him, hurriedly made way, and went to find Shang.

At this time, Hui Qing and others were also catching up with Shang, talking about things that had happened over the years.

Of course, the major events had been covered by Zhen Ling, and now they were discussing some small matters and sharing their experiences in the upper spacetime with everyone.

It also allowed those powerful figures of the past to realize how vast and marvelous the outside world was.

In fact, that was nothing much anymore.

The entire upper stream of spacetime no longer posed much of a challenge for them.

Of course, this included only Hu Qing and him.

If there was one more, it would be Wu Zuo.

Who could deny his extraordinary background?

“Wushuang, do you have something to discuss with me?” Zhen Ling saw Jian Wushuang’s serious expression and assumed it was something significant, instantly becoming earnest. Jian Wushuang smiled lightly, “It’s not really a big matter. To be honest, I feel somewhat embarrassed. I wanted to ask Lord Zhen Ling for help in gathering the remaining Beast God Weapons.”

“Beast God Weapons!” Upon hearing this, Zhen Ling smiled faintly, “It seems you have discovered the uniqueness of the Beast God Weapons!”

Seeing Zhen Ling’s expression, Jian Wushuang asked in surprise, “You know?”

He hadn’t expected Zhen Ling to be aware of the special nature of the nine Beast God

Weapons.

With this knowledge, he could also inquire about how these weapons were crafted.

Qishen, a Universe Master of the Seventh Tribulation, was able to forge such powerful treasures, there must have been a reason behind it.

He had been curious before, but now that he knew Zhen Ling was also aware, his curiosity

deepened.

“Haha, I was the one who crafted them, how could I not know!” Zhen Ling said, his beard bristling with pride as he began to boast about the crafting of the Beast God Weapons.

In truth, he only possessed the memories of crafting the Beast God Weapons.

At that time in Moro Spacetime, there were nine great Beast Gods.

Each of these Beast Gods was at the level of the Seventh Tribulation, all of whom were slain by

Qishen and ultimately forged into the nine Beast God Weapons!

“Since you already know, I won’t beat around the bush. Simply put, I want to gather all nine Beast God Weapons!” Jian Wushuang said directly, not holding back his purpose.

He intended to collect the nine Beast God Weapons and, combined with the Origin Source of the Nian Beast he had obtained, refine the nine Beast God Weapons into one. Although his current increase in divine power relied entirely on the Super Eternal Ancient Transformation, it was no longer sufficient for him.

Or rather, besides the Super Eternal Ancient Transformation, he had no other means to

enhance his power.

His fundamental divine power had already reached perfection.

Only by reaching the Eighth Tribulation could he enhance his power further.

And even then, the enhancement would be limited, depending on how he overcame his

tribulations.

He needed to plan ahead and prepare for the future.

Upon hearing his intent to gather the nine Beast God Weapons, Zhen Ling was momentarily stunned and exclaimed, “What do you need these for? Though I was highly skilled back then, these nine Beast God Weapons are considered innate Universe Treasures, but their enhancement limits are very low. Even if you gather all nine, they would at most become treasures at the peak of the Eighth Tribulation level. I see you don’t lack such treasures!” Jian Wushuang had just taken out several treasures at the complete-stage Eighth Tribulation level; why would he be interested in these Beast God Weapons? This puzzled Zhen Ling. Jian Wushuang did not hide his understanding of the Beast God Weapons. This matter was not urgent and could be addressed slowly after dealing with Mie Sheng.

After hearing his explanation, Zhen Ling showed a trace of shock. Even he hadn’t expected the upper limits of the Beast God Weapons to be so high.
