Chapter 812 - Eldest Senior Brother’s true identity
“Of course I am.” Jiang Jun Zhe replied, “Xiao Xiao, we’ve been fellow disciples for so many years, you won’t stop me, right?”
“Eldest Senior Brother, you can’t take this devil sword out.” Su Xiao Xiao siad, “If you really must, then we can only stop you.:
“How are you going to stop me? You can’t beat me.” Jiang Jun Zhe shrugged nonchalantly.
“Jiang Jun Zhe, why do you insist on bringing this out? For the Jiang Clan?” Han Miao Shuang was more familiar with his identity, and asked with a downcast expression.
“Jiang Clan?” Jiang Jun Zhe smiled, saying, “I have no relationship with the Jiang Clan.”
“What did you say?!”
“How could Jiang Jun Zhe, that idiot, be as smart as I am?” Jiang Jun Zhe said, “I merely used his identity.”
“Who are you?”
“You Han clan and my Jiang clan have been interacting for many generations. You know about Jiang Jun Zhe, then, do you know that Jiang Jin Zhe has a younger twin brother, Jiang Jun Xian?”
“You are that…” Han Miao Shuang looked at Jiang Jun Zhe, saying with disbelief, “Didn’t they say that he was dead?”
Jiang Jun Zhe, no, Jiang Jun Xian smiled when he heard what she said. His smile dripped with malice and deep hurt.
“Dead? No, I did not die. But someone did wish that I was dead. That way, he would be able to become the first amongst the youths in the Jiang clan.” Jiang Jun Zhe said with a shake of his head, “Not only he, but the others thought the same. That was why they used my blood to exchange with his poisoned blood, wanting to give him my chance to live. But they never thought that I was the one who survived. Ha ha ha-”
“Jiang Jun Zhe…” Han Miao Shuang looked at him, “At that time, the Jiang family sent word that you had been poisoned beyond cure. You would die in no time. It turns out… how did you survive?”
“You don’t have to know.” Jiang Jun Zhe did not plan to answer this, because the way he lived was too painful. He had paid too high of a price, he did not want to think about it.
“I’m guessing that organisation that’s supporting you was the one that rescued you.” Sima You Yue said.
Jiang Jun Zhe looked over to Sima You Yue, saying, “Junior Brother, you really are smarter than the average person. I really do not wish to become your enemy.”
“Then don’t make me your enemy.” Sima You Yue continued, “Like you said, you and I have been fellow disciples for such a long time.”
“The time I spent with you all has indeed been the best time, and the most relaxed. It’s a pity that I lived those days on borrowed time. Also, it was borrowed from the one whom I hate the most.” When he talked about his own brother, his voice turned hoarse, as if he was suppressing some kind of pain.
“Jiang Jun Xian, I ask you one question. All these years, was it you?” Han Miao Shuang asked.
Su Xiao Xiao looked directly at him, as if he was extremely anxious for the answer.
“Jian Jun Zhe was caught when he left for the Jiang clan’s pill competition. He never turned up for the competition.” Jiang Jun Zhe said, “However, based on his talents, I’m guessing that Xu Jin would never have noticed him.”
“You’re saying that it’s been you from the start?” Han Miao Shuang said, “The one that Master had accepted as a disciple from the start was you…”
“That’s right. I hope that the old man will not be too sad when he finds out.” Jiang Jun Zhe said, “However, I don’t know whether or not he will be alive to hear this. If he knows, he might regret not noticing it all these years.”
“He will not be sad.” Sima You Yue said confidently, “Neither will he regret.”
Jiang Jun Zhe looked at her and smiled. He did not believe her words.
“You think that, based on how smart Master is, would he really not have noticed?” Sima You Yue threw the question right back at him.
“Junior Brother, you’re saying that Master knew?”
“Impossible! If he knew, he would not have said nothing about it.” Jiang Jun Zhe did not believe her.
“Master knew about it long ago.” Sima You Yue siad, “He didn’t say anything because it has always been you that he accepted as a disciple from the start. You were the one he accepted, not the identity of the young master of the Jiang Clan. Even if you had a secret motive, he never blamed you.”
Jiang Jun Zhe heard her words, and he couldn’t help but tremble.
“Impossible. He never mentioned it before.” He still didn’t believe her.
“Do you know what he said to me before?”
“What?”
“No matter my identity, I would always be his disciple, a person he has acknowledged. As long as I never do anything that will destroy the word, I will always be his disciple. He said, A master for a day was a father for a lifetime. He would always protect me, and protect us. He even said that you, Eldest Senior Brother, had gone through a lot of hardship. If you ever did something, as long as it was not something that was wicked and cruel, we had to forgive you.” Sima You Yue siad, “That young master of the Jiang Clan, did he encounter any hardships? You tell me, if Master did not know, would he say this?”
Jiang Jun Xian was a little lightheaded from what she told him, and subconsciously grabbed on to the crystal coffin.
“When… when did he say this?”
“Shortly after I entered.” Sima You Yue said, “No matter your identity, he would always treat you like his disciple. But today, if you take the devil sword out to the world, you would be severing your relationship with him with your own hands. Eldest Senior Brother, do you really want to do this?”
Jiang Jun Zhe lowered his head, looking at the Sky Splitter Devil Sword in the crystal coffin. His eyes flashed with struggle.
“My primary mission has always been to obtain the Sky Splitter Devil Sword. For it, I entered the outer regions, enrolled into the sect and got the information written in the ancient text found in the sect. However, I found this out before I moved. It happened to save me a lot of effort.”
“You knew from the start that the Sky Splitter was in the outer regions.” Han Miao Shuang said confidently, “You made use of Master from the start. You used us.”
“Maybe I didn’t use you.” Jiang Jun Xian said, “I merely used a different identity to enter the inner sect. I never did anything to harm you all.”
“Eldest Senior Brother, are you really going to take the Sky Splitter out?” Su Xiao Xiao said with a solemn expression.
“Xiao Xiao, you have already asked me this question three times.” Jiang Jun Xian said, “No matter how many times you ask me, my answer will not change.”
“If we must stop you?”
Jiang Jun Zhe stretched forth a finger and shook it, saying, “I know your personality well, So I thought of a way to stop you long ago.”
When they heard what he said, everyone was shocked. They had a bad feeling.
They watched as he took out a white ball and shattered it. A light fragrance drifted out and everyone who smelled it felt their chests palpitate like crazy. They lost their energy and fell down in twos and threes.
They wanted to move their spirit energy, but they could not at all.
Sima You Yue sensed for a moment and found that the item had actually cut off her connection with her spirit pagoda!
