As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

108 Twenty Years (1)

In a bustling restaurant in Dongyuan City, Jiang Ming, who had changed his appearance, ordered several dishes and listened to the diners around him talking about current affairs.

“It’s really unexpected that the country of Yan can hold on until now. I heard that they won another battle yesterday and wiped out thousands of soldiers of the Qingxuan Army!”

“Although Marquis Zhou has disappeared, he has left behind a lot of backup plans. The country of Yan might even fight back in the future and regain their might again.”

“I think the Qingxuan Army is more likely to succeed. The Emperor and Marquis Zhou set up a trap to kill the Grandmasters of the well-known families. Now, only three of the six well-known families are left. They jointly elected the Qingxuan Army to destroy the country of Yan. They are not pushovers. Their revenge will be terrible!”

“That’s right. The Liang family has two Grandmasters in one family.”

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows. It seemed that the Liang family had obtained extraordinary things in the Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest. They had created another Grandmaster in just a few years.

“I’ve been practicing for eight years, but I’m not a Grandmaster yet,” Jiang Ming muttered to himself, but he thought that the second Grandmaster of the Liang family should have been at the peak of the Dao Master level long ago. Otherwise, it would be difficult to break through this last step even if he had the opportunity.

“It seems like this matter of destroying the Liang family will have to be pushed back.” Jiang Ming took a sip of wine.

It did not matter how long it took. He was not in a hurry.

At this moment, a dark-faced man suddenly laughed and said, “Speaking of which, the Flying Cloud Castle has become quite powerful.”

“I’ve heard that there are a few Grandmasters behind the Flying Cloud Castle. Their army is full of talented people. Two generals have been particularly talented and in the past few years, they’ve managed to capture a lot of territories.”

“In addition, the Flying Cloud Castle is popular among the people. Countless people have run to their territory to seek refuge, and their strength is growing day by day.”

Jiang Ming listened for a moment and could not help but reveal a stunned look. The two generals were clearly Wei Yan and Fang Lie.

He could not help but think back to the time when they first met in the Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest. He did not expect that after a mere decade, these two people would be so famous.

“It’s a pity that I’m still a nobody!” Jiang Ming shook his head and continued to eat the food on the table, “I’ve had enough of Dongyuan City. I’m going somewhere else soon.”

Half a month later, late at night, in the Qin family manor, a dazzling blade suddenly appeared and directly split a courtyard in half.

The Qin family was the top family in Dongyuan City.

The most powerful martial artist in the city, Qin Hong, was dead. His head was cut off, leaving behind a headless corpse.

“I was talking to you nicely, but you didn’t listen. You just had to fight with me.”

Jiang Ming held the decapitated head in his hand, and his figure flew in the dark night toward his next target.

“However, it seems that Qin Hong didn’t have anything. Other than some mutated medicinal herbs, there’s nothing else related to immortal cultivators.”

However, it was not without gain. Jiang Ming found a book on the cultivation insights of Dao Masters. Although the paths of Grandmasters were different, there was always some overlap.

The Wu family was also an old aristocratic family in Dongyuan City.

Jiang Ming grabbed Qin Hong’s decapitated head and woke the head of the Wu family up from the bed. The latter was about to fight him, but when he saw the bloody head, he instantly wilted.

Alas, there was nothing for Jiang Ming to take. He left with his head and continued to the next family.

Those who were cooperative be fine. If they were uncooperative, they would have their heads cut off.

The next day, a piece of news began to spread like wildfire in Dongyuan City. Someone had attacked all the heads of the major families and decapitated them whenever there was a disagreement. Even the only Dao Master in the city was beheaded.

All the aristocratic families were in danger. Since then, the legend of the executioner had been passed down in Dongyuan City for decades, becoming an excellent cautionary tale to keep children in line.

As for Jiang Ming, he had already left Dongyuan City. He was leisurely riding a black horse. In his hand, he was playing with a broken piece of black metal.

The only good thing he had obtained from Dongyuan City was this piece of metal that he got from an aristocratic family. It was only the size of his palm, was as thin as a piece of paper, and had razor-sharp edges. Even if Jiang Ming tried his best, he was unable to damage it.

“According to what that guy said, it was also seized from the Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest during the immortal encounter. Perhaps it’s a fragment of a magic tool!”

Jiang Ming shook his head, “But maybe it’s been damaged for too long. There’s no more spiritual energy in it. I can use it as a hidden weapon, however. With my current strength, I can use the Meridian Breaker to increase my speed, and then throw this piece of metal at my opponent. Even a Grandmaster wouldn’t be able to defend themselves against it!”

Jiang Ming thought for a moment about how to use this piece of metal and put it away temporarily.

“Although I didn’t gain much here, I’ve heard a lot of stories about the Nameless. They have been benefiting from both sides of the Flying Cloud Castle and the other major forces, and have become a terrifying organization.”

In the midst of a war, intelligence had always been the most valuable thing. The Nameless had relied on this to start their organization, so they were naturally like fish in water.

However, Jiang Ming did not intend to continue to contact the Nameless for the time being.

No matter how mysterious a force was, it was still run by humans. Now that the Nameless was so powerful, he might become their target.
