Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation

Jiang Xiu was in the Imperial Capital, which was a flourishing metropolis. The quality of air here would be lesser. If he had felt this trace of spiritual energy deep in the mountains, it would've made sense, but he felt it was quite absurd to discover spiritual energy at the Imperial Capital. He could faintly sense that something had changed ever since he left the ancient city and this feeling became truer by the day.

The Fire God's curse which had baselessly disappeared meant that the curse was broken. The monsters which had appeared weren't from Earth as well. Something had indeed happened.

The most distinctive feeling which Jiang Xiu got were from the three Godhood Halos in his body. The Heavenly Dao Religion's and Li Mi's Godhood Halos as well as the Evil God's faith Godhood Halo. They had become stronger without any artificial stimuli. Moreover, as these three Godhood Halos grew, he could faintly grasp how to use them.

Especially the Heavenly Dao Religion's Godhood Halo. It had transformed from a pale gold color to a pale green color, from a formless and useless thing to something which now indistinctly formed a connection with the mysteries of the world. For some reason, it gave Jiang Xiu a fantastic feeling as if he was becoming one with the world.

This was the different method from Immortal Cultivation. One can pry into Heaven at the later stages of Immortal Cultivation and comprehend the mysteries of the world. After that, the cultivator could gain the power to influence the world with each gesture. This Godhood Halo conformed with the world also contained some kind of Heavenly Law in it.

Right now, the three Godhood Halos in his body had changed into three colors. Li Mi's had become a pale white color, the Heavenly Dao Religion's had become a pale green one, and the other one was a black Godhood Halo. The three Godhood Halos took the shape of a tiny spinning design made of flames.

Though Jiang Xiu was curious, he didn't meddle in and let them develop arbitrarily.

The curtain of night gradually descended down, and the Imperial Capital was full of neon lights under the night scene. Viewing this majestic scene from the top of a high-rise building no doubt emphasized this city's splendor.

…

In a residence somewhere, Secretary Ye entered the courtyard and poured a cup of wine for Elder Jiang, bringing along a plate of fried peanuts with him to eat there, "Elder, as you guessed, the couple indeed came back. However, only Lin Yueling alone came here. I just got the news from the airport."

Elder Jiang grunted, "She must have come to take that brat away? The Lin family's people are always selfish. She doesn't even give thought to her son's future prospects. Does she want her son to end up like her as well?"

Secretary Ye asked, "Shall we stop her from entering?"

Elder Jiang muttered to himself, "There's no need for that. It's good that she has come. Go see her and tell her that only ruin awaits those who aren't a part of my Jiang family."

Secretary Ye felt a shiver pass through him. He recalled the incident which had happened a decade ago. Jiang Yi had gone to jail and was ruined completely. He wondered whether the same would happen to Jiang Xiu as well.

He believed Lin Yueling would definitely surrender this time. The previous experience had hurt her too much and almost destroyed her entire life so she wouldn't want her son to walk the same path.

"I'll go immediately!"

…

An airplane slowly descended at the Imperial Capital's airport during the night. Lin Yueling felt everything had become unfamiliar as she left the airport. Compared to a decade ago, this place had gone through a major transformation. This city where she had grown up right from her childhood had now become strange and gave a distant feel to her.

"Stinky brat!" She abandoned all the distracting thoughts and only had that shameless brat in her mind. "It's still switched off. You're just forcing me to drop in at your university now."

She saw a taxi come over and waved her hand then got into it, "Driver, to the Imperial University!"

Jiang Xiu was totally oblivious that the Empress had already arrived at the Imperial Capital. He was currently having dinner on a cruise liner sailing on the Guihai Lake while gazing at the twinkling dots at a distance. Wang Xintong was sitting together with him and a foreign man donned in a swallow-tailed tux was playing the violin.

This was the best restaurant with a scene view in the Imperial Capital. Wang Xintong had come here twice before, but she never enjoyed the place. For her, the mood was important than eating food, and this depended on the person accompanying her for dinner.

"Thank you!"

The chef served fresh beef on the side. Wang Xintong had studied abroad, so she had adapted to Western-style pretty well. As for this Jiang Xiu, this guy had never left the country. He always held contempt for foreign food, and if it weren't for Wang Xintong choosing this place, he wouldn't have had any interest in eating Western-style good. He embraced the wind as it blew across the deck and listened to the romantic violin music, "Try this steak…"

Wang Xintong sliced a piece of beef from her plate and brought it towards Jiang Xiu's mouth. Jiang Xiu gazed at her coldly and didn't open her mouth. His eyes even revealed a vicious gleam, "Don't eat it if you don't want to. Is there a need to stare so viciously at me?"

Each time she felt she could grow closer to Jiang Xiu, he would coldly push her away, just like now.

She delivered the beef to her own mouth helplessly. Ever since that humiliating dance she had performed after being sent to Jiang Xiu's room on that night, she felt she had become lost in the wickedness of the man before her. She didn't have any hopes to get something from him when she discovered that he already had someone in his heart. And just like how Jiang Xiu tormented himself, she too became addicted to tormenting herself. As they say, people are influenced by their surroundings.

"It looks like your fiancée got a boyfriend."

Jiang Xiu placed a slice into his mouth and chewed it twice before pausing, "How do you know this? Did you have a hand in this matter?"

Wang Xintong smiled, "I merely made Song Ronghao appear in front of Cheng Lingsu, that's all."

Jiang Xiu's eyes went cold as a killing intent leaked from him.

"What are you getting angry for? Isn't this what you wanted?"

Jiang Xiu lowered his voice, "If we weren't in public, I would have surely choked you to death."

Wang Xintong recalled the day when she had caught a glimpse of the sinful love for Cheng Lingran which he had hidden in the depths of his heart. He had become furious like a lion whose tail was stepped on. This man could do anything. She felt a cold chill pass through her yet also felt excited and looked forward to what he would do. She even doubted whether she had become masochistic.

"It looks like I made the right choice to have the dinner here."

"I feel like I've barely managed to escape with my life!"

Jiang Xiu felt a little angry. This woman keeps acting more and more impudently in front of me. I'll have to look for an opportunity to teach her a lesson.

Wang Xintong didn't know what the Old Devil Jiang was thinking about right now. She smiled at him, "Actually, I had an ever more brazen idea. Do you want to hear it?"

"What is it?"

"To kill Cheng Lingsu."

At this moment, Jiang Xiu felt all the hairs on his body rise up. He didn't know what he was feeling, but he couldn't control himself as the deluge of emotions overcame him.

Wang Xintong picked up the glass filled with red wine on the table and took a sip, "The Cheng family has two daughters, and it owes your Jiang family, so they have to compensate. Isn't there another one if this one died? There's a 60% probability of the other one compensating for it. If this were done, it would become 100%."

Whoosh!

Wang Xintong felt as if she had become light. Jiang Xiu had already grabbed her neck and dashed towards the railing, making her hand outside with a single hand. She exerted all her strength to pry free from his hand grasping her throat. Her eyes grew wide in fear.

The Jiang Xiu before her had ice-cold eyes void of any emotions.

"Tell me, do you believe I will kill you and throw you into the lake?"

Wang Xintong waddled her legs as hard as she could, resulting in her red high-heel shoes falling into the lake. She was shocked. Didn't you say you wouldn't do it in public?

Only then did she notice from the corner of her eyes that everyone seemed to have frozen in time.

"Don't think you can ask for help!"

Wang Xintong blinked her eyes in a flurry to covey that she understood.

"Hmph!"

The violin's sound became audible again, and Wang Xintong discovered that she had already returned to her original seat right now. The surrounding people were still eating dinner while chatting and everything seemed to have recovered to the previous state. Jiang Xiu's cold gaze swept across her, causing her to bow down and cut the beef. If it weren't for the burning sensation on her neck as well as the cold feeling of the floor at her feet, she would've doubted whether she had hallucinated just now.

Phew!

She exhaled deeply. Her body was drenched in cold sweat from the fear and face pale. She couldn't comprehend how she had provoked him.
