Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Chapter 225: Chapter 209: Jiang Cheng Cultivates Demonic Arts_2
Jiang Cheng said with a smile, “That will be all, Your Highness. Just wait for the notification.”

“Very well, very well.”

Liang Chun was very satisfied with Jiang Cheng’s attitude.

How could one say otherwise, when dealing with the Immortal Sect is smooth sailing? The Sect Master of the mighty Dayan Sect didn’t put on any airs at all, the righteousness surely signifies high quality!

At the entrance of the hotel, Li Qingge felt extremely bewildered. She remembered how cordially Jiang Cheng and Liang Chun were negotiating and couldn’t help but question their purpose for being there.

They were supposed to be there to gather evidence, right?

Feeling uncertain, Li Qingge asked, “Jiang Cheng, what notification are you asking Prince Qi to wait for?”

With a calm face, Jiang Cheng said, “Of course, the notification from The Ministry of Justice.”

“Oh, then it’s fine.”

Li Qingge breathed a sigh of relief.

Given their recent jovial interaction, it wouldn’t have surprised her if Jiang Cheng told her that the Dayan Sect had turned against them on the spot.

After leaving the restaurant, Jiang Cheng didn’t go straight home.

Instead, he sent a communication talisman to meet with a special friend.

The columnist for the “Jade Lake Evening News” — Wang Chen.

After playing the Memory Sphere once, Wang Chen, who had initially seemed uninterested, suddenly became passionate.

My goodness, a tangle of love and hate between a Prince and the Demon Sect, wouldn’t this require a hundred columns?

However, as an experienced journalist, Wang Chen knew the principle of not coming to the temple without a cause.

“What do you want me to write?” he asked Jiang Cheng bluntly.

Jiang Cheng said, “I’ve read your Jade Lake Evening News.”

“And?”

“The writing is very imaginative, the plots full of innovation, each article challenges people’s values in just a few words.”

“Er…”

Wang Chen was not sure whether Jiang Cheng was praising him or being sarcastic.

“You wouldn’t send me the news about Prince Qi just to be charitable, right? What exactly do you want us to write?”

“Just tone it down a bit when you write,” Jiang Cheng said sincerely.

Thanks to the information from Liang Chun.

The interrogation pressure on the Tongtian Sect was greatly reduced.

The Enforcement Hall had originally needed to hold open auditions, but now there was no need; candidates like “Qiu Shui” were pre-selected and fast-tracked to the finals.

Qiu Shui and the others were not high in cultivation, and with Liang Chun’s “defection,” they didn’t last long under the Enforcement Hall’s interrogation before confessing.

Then, it was the “Jade Lake Evening News”‘s turn to exert its power.

“Shocking! Prince Liang Chu did not die over a woman! He died over a man!”

“Witch reveals: The reason Prince Qi can keep up his strength is actually this!”

“Too horrifying! The feud between two brothers turned out to be caused by her carelessness!”

…

In the courtroom, Liang Chun’s heart sank to rock bottom!

He screamed hysterically, “Where is Chen Jiang! He promised to let me see Qiu Shui and the others! He’s playing dirty! How could he do this to me!”

Minister Pang Yuan of The Ministry of Justice had an immense headache.

The case of Prince Liang Chu was now attracting considerable attention, and stuck between public opinion and the royal family, he was in a no-win situation.

“Your Highness, Prince Qi, please stop shouting. Isn’t Qiu Shui also in the courtroom?”

“Where is Chen Jiang! Summon him to see me! He broke his promise and went back on his word!”

“Your Highness, please don’t worry about where you saw Qiu Shui for now. Just tell us whether you saw her or not?”

Liang Chun’s neck stiffened, feeling like he was about to suffer a stroke from frustration.

The Dayan Sect, so-called upright and honorable!

How could they turn around and betray him!

The thing he regretted most in his life was trusting Chen Jiang!

Even the Hehuan Sect was more trustworthy than him!

…

Sitting on the couch in Jade Lake Ming’an, Jiang Cheng crossed his legs and read the newspaper in his hand.

The cases of “Prince Liang Chu” and “Minister Gao” were successfully overturned.

Prince Qi, Liang Chun got deeply entangled in legal proceedings, and none of his brothers, including the Taixu Sect, would let him go easily.

Even if Liang Chun didn’t die, he would at least have to spend decades in prison.

In any case, he definitely had nothing to do with the throne anymore.

The penalties that Miaodan Workshop submitted to the court were said to be in the process of being refunded, but who knows how long that would take.

Shen Menghan is currently negotiating with Secret Pill Pavilion on transferring pill formulas and shop sales.

The Secret Pill Pavilion is probably the unluckiest faction besides Prince Qi.

They had capitalized on the troubles of Miaodan Workshop, acquired most of its assets, and gained significant strength.

However, with the death of Prince Liang Chu, Secret Pill Pavilion was hit hard and returned to square one, and it would likely be years before they could hold their heads up high again.

Having finished the newspaper, Jiang Cheng casually took out the “Dayan Sect Disciple Roster.”

According to the famous “Balance of Power Hypothesis,” the various forces of the Cultivation World will neither become stronger nor weaker but will always maintain a dynamic balance through constant adjustments.

Based on Jiang Cheng’s calculations, the power of the Demonic Tao in the Capital of Liang Kingdom was currently at an all-time low.

This means, at this particular point in time in the Capital, the Demon Sect cultivators are the favored ones; they will receive more “Heavenly Dao’s favor” than the cultivators of righteousness.

When Demonic Tao weakens, they will be strengthened.

Conversely, when righteousness weakens, it too will be strengthened.

Individual cultivators or a single faction could become stronger or weaker, but overall, righteousness and Demonic Tao maintain an extremely delicate, yet unbreakable balance.

Jiang Cheng was the only person in the entire Cultivation World who knew this rule.

“Heavenly Dao’s favor” manifests in many ways.

The simplest is smooth cultivation.

More complex aspects include better luck and acquiring opportunities.

Even more intricate are things like the awakening of spirit children and the emergence of more “innate constitutions.”

Jiang Cheng opened the “Dayan Sect Disciple Roster,” containing names of people he recognized and was familiar with.

Such as Bai Xiaohe, Shen Menghan, Yue Linger, and others.

And of course, there were higher-level cultivators like Gao Miao and Li Qingge.

However, the strangest and most important person in this roster was “Liu Qing.”

That is “Liu Qing” and not “Liu Qing.”
