Chapter 361 -61: Ordinary Sixth Rank Several Times Bone Forging Efficiency_2
Lv Yi stood by, staring blankly at Jiang Ning before sticking her head out to issue commands to the two horses that could understand human speech.
Hiss—
Hiss—
Upon hearing her commands, the precious horses immediately snorted out white mist from their noses, then began pulling the carriage, slowly turning it around.
After giving the commands, Lv Yi withdrew back into the carriage.
She took off the cotton shoes she had just put on, revealing her tender, bare feet on the soft carpet.
…
Meanwhile.
At Jiang Ning’s residence.
“Miss Xie, Ah Ning hasn’t returned yet, and it’s getting dark. Do you still want to wait?” asked Liuu Wanwan, prompted by Jiang Li.
“Yes!” Xie Xiaojiu nodded firmly, “I must wait for the lord’s arrival tonight, as I have important matters to tell him!”
“Alright then!” Liuu Wanwan nodded softly, then added, “If it gets too late, and Miss Xie finds it inconvenient to return home, I’ll make the bed for you with new cotton quilts!”
“Thank you, sister!” Xie Xiaojiu said.
…
More than two hours later.
“Have we arrived?”
The moment the carriage came to a halt, Jiang Ning opened his eyes.
“Young Master Jiang, we have arrived!” Lv Yi, seeing Jiang Ning open his eyes, immediately greeted him with a curtsy.
“No need for such formalities!” Jiang Ning stood up with a smile, “Now that Miss Lv has safely arrived, it’s time for me to return home!”
With those words, Jiang Ning lifted the carriage curtain and stepped out.
At the same time.
“Eh—” At the rooftop of Wanhua Building.
Lin Qingyi, hearing the sound of her carriage arriving, looked down just in time to see Jiang Ning suddenly emerge from the carriage.
At this sight, a look of surprise revealed itself in her eyes.
Afterward.
It was only after listening to Lv Yi’s report that she understood why Jiang Ning had come and gone so quickly.
“What do you think of Jiang Ning?” Lin Qingyi asked softly.
“In my heart, Young Master Jiang is a good person, a rare good person in this world!”
“From the tone of your voice, do you like Jiang Ning?” Lin Qingyi suddenly asked.
Lv Yi shook her head slightly, “I am not worthy to like Young Master Jiang!”
…
Elsewhere.
After leaving Wanhua Building, Jiang Ning hurried towards his home.
Having digested the journey, he could see that the thirteen bones he had refined were now gleaming with a great deal of silver color.
This signified that the hardness of those bones had greatly increased compared to before, and he was one step closer to the Iron Bone of Martial Arts Sixth Grade.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
He was now heading home to hasten the refinement of the other bones in his body.
Those thirteen bones were still in the process of absorbing and digesting the iron marrow and couldn’t be refined further.
But since the human body has a total of 206 bones, the remaining 193 bones can still be refined.
With his speed of recovery in water, whether it’s the consumption of Qi Blood Power or the digestion of his spirit, he could quickly recover. This way, he could rapidly complete the initial Bone Forging and craft Iron Bone to step into the realm of the Peak of Sixth Grade.
…
Not long after.
“Finally, I’m here!”
Seeing the stone steps and the gate above with the plaque hanging with the words ‘Jiang Mansion.’
Jiang Ning stopped in his tracks, exhaling a breath of impure energy.
After the vigorous journey, Jiang Ning’s forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and steam rose continuously from the top of his head.
Thump thump thump—
He knocked on the door.
The next moment.
He heard heavy footsteps coming from behind the door.
In less than a moment.
As the sound of the door bolt being withdrawn rang out, the gate slowly opened.
What met his eyes was Jiang Li holding a lantern.
“Big brother!” Jiang Ning showed a faint smile.
“Ah Ning, you’re finally back!” Jiang Li’s rugged face momentarily lost its worry.
Then, he said, “Come in quickly! There’s a guest waiting for you at home!”
“Waiting for me?” Jiang Ning asked with a look of surprise, “Who could be waiting for me at this late hour?”
“Miss Nine of the Xie family, Miss Xie!” Jiang Li took Jiang Ning’s wrist and stepped over the threshold, continuing, “Hurry and meet her! That young lady has been waiting for you all night at home, she hasn’t eaten dinner or gone home just to wait for you!”
“She is now in the hall waiting for you!”
Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded, “Then I’ll go right over!”
“Go! Go!” urged Jiang Li, then as he closed the large door, he continued to speak, “I think the girl looks quite nice, she seems very fit to bear children, and it seems she has taken a liking to you. You’re not getting any younger, so it’s about time to get married and have children. If you’re interested, why not see if there’s a chance?”
Hearing Jiang Li’s words, Jiang Ning immediately felt overwhelmed.
He had been urged to marry in his previous life, and now it was happening again.
He was momentarily speechless, quickly quickening his pace.
In the blink of an eye.
He passed through the front yard, pushed open the partially closed front hall door, and saw Xie Xiaojiu sitting upright in the hall.
“Milord!” Xie Xiaojiu had just turned her head at the sound by the door when she saw Jiang Ning’s figure, and she was overjoyed.
“Ah Ning is back!” said Liu Wanwan as she rose from Xie Xiaojiu’s side, her tone gentle.
“Sister-in-law!” greeted Jiang Ning.
Then he nodded, “I just got back!”
“Did you have dinner outside, Ah Ning?” Liu Wanwan asked.
“No!” Jiang Ning shook his head.
“Then I’ll bring over the warm food. Miss Nine from the Xie family hasn’t eaten either. You both can have dinner together!” Liu Wanwan said.
“Then I’ll trouble my sister-in-law!” Jiang Ning bowed.
“You two chat, I’ll bring the food!” Liu Wanwan gestured to Jiang Ning and gave Xie Xiaojiu a knowing look as if to tell him to seize the opportunity.
Jiang Ning: “…”
Seeing Liu Wanwan’s hint, how could he not understand?
His brother and sister-in-law were clearly in cahoots.
He then.
Sat down beside Xie Xiaojiu.
“Is there something from the Inspection Office?”
“Yes!” Xie Xiaojiu nodded, “Have a sip of tea first, Milord!”
She placed the already poured hot tea in front of Jiang Ning.
“Please tell me!” Jiang Ning spoke, picking up the warm tea and drinking it in one gulp.
Xie Xiaojiu’s expression grew serious, “Milord, this morning, He Jinseng arrived in Luoshui County!”
“He Jinseng?” Jiang Ning’s expression also became more serious, “What is his relation to He Jinyun?”
Xie Xiaojiu said, “He Jinseng, the older brother of He Jinyun, is a civil martial examinee in Great Xia. According to previous records, he has already reached the Peak of Martial Arts Sixth Grade!”
“A civil martial examinee?”
“Martial Arts Sixth Grade Peak?”
Jiang Ning murmured to himself, head lowered.
Then looking up at Xie Xiaojiu, he said, “So, his coming here is probably concerning He Jinyun’s death, right?”
“You are correct, Milord!” Xie Xiaojiu nodded again and again, “He Jinseng rushed to Luoshui County overnight, just to investigate who killed He Jinyun!”
“After entering the city this morning, he only had a simple wash and bath, and right after noon, he went to see Master Hong at the Inspection Office.”
Hearing this, Jiang Ning murmured, “If he went to the Inspection Office only after noon, he doesn’t seem to be in much of a hurry!”
After a moment of reflection, he looked up at Xie Xiaojiu, “Did you specially come to inform me because you also think I might have killed He Jinyun?”
Xie Xiaojiu locked eyes with Jiang Ning, “The way Young Master died was extremely strange, but in my view, there are not many in Luoshui County with both the motive and the ability to kill He Jinyun.”
“I believe there are even fewer with the courage to kill Young Master He. While it may seem impossible for you to do it, Milord, you’ve always been shrouded in mist in my eyes, and I don’t know if you have some miraculous means to kill He Jinyun unperceived.”
Hearing Xie Xiaojiu’s words, Jiang Ning understood immediately.
“So, even though you’re not sure, you still chose to inform me?”
“Yes!!” Xie Xiaojiu nodded again and again.
Just then.
“The food is ready!” Liu Wanwan’s voice arrived before she did.
The next moment.
She appeared before the pair, carrying a tray.
Beside her, Jiang Li held a wooden bucket, which exuded a rich aroma of rice.
“Let’s eat first!” Jiang Ning said.
“Alright, Milord!” Xie Xiaojiu obediently nodded.
