Agent Time Travel: Apocalypse in the Magical World

Chapter 348 Goodbye Jiang Chuyang

"My uncle died not long ago."

The uncle that Gong Chang mentioned was naturally Magician Zheng.

"Dead?" Qin Xiaoxian asked doubtfully, "Did his soul backfire?"

"No. He was killed by Jiang Chuyang."

"Jiang Chuyang? Why?"

"Because he wants Jiang Ning to advance as quickly and safely as possible."

Qin Xiaoxian was a little puzzled: "What does this have to do with killing Magician Zheng?"

"I heard from my uncle that it was he who researched the method that allowed Jiang Ning, who was not supposed to practice magic and spiritual power, to upgrade by injecting souls into his body to forcibly isolate magic and spiritual power. This raises two questions."

"The power of the soul and its compatibility with the host?" Qin Xiaoxian frowned.

"Oh, if you don't call me the stupid emperor, you are really smart! By the way, you are a thousand-year-old ghost, so it's not surprising that you know it."

Yes, Qin Xiaoxian understood that it was not easy to separate magic and spiritual power. When he fought with Jiang Ning, didn't a female ghost come out? Jiang Ning was not a psychic, so there was only one possibility, that the ghost lived in his body.

However, as the level increases, this soul that serves as a barrier will inevitably be unable to withstand the overwhelm of magic and spiritual power.

"So every time Jiang Ning advances in rank, we have to use a soul of a higher level to block him."

"So Jiang Chuyang had already considered Master Zheng as a sacrifice for Jiang Ningsheng's seventh level?"

Gong Chang nodded, tears streaming down his face again: "In fact, my uncle already knew this would be the result. He had already guessed it when Jiang Chuyang forced him to absorb ghosts crazily to upgrade. He has to endure the pain of soul tearing apart every day. He said that death might be a relief."

"What about the Empress Dowager?" Qin Xiaoxian asked.

Gong Chang took a deep breath, as if he felt a little heavy about what he was going to say next: "The matter of the Queen Mother is actually a more complicated conspiracy. Jiang Chuyang's goal is not only to let Jiang Ning reach a higher level of cultivation, he also has a bigger plan, which is to restrain Jiang Ning by imprisoning the Queen Mother's soul."

"Oh? Is he afraid that Jiang Ning will be difficult to control after reaching the eighth level and eighth stage?" Qin Xiaoxian seemed to understand.

"My uncle told me that Jiang Chuyang had long seen that the young emperor Jiang Ning was extraordinary and ambitious, and he was worried that he would be difficult to control in the future. But I didn't expect that Jiang Chuyang first used my uncle's soul to help Jiang Ning improve his cultivation. When Jiang Ning reached the seventh level, Jiang Chuyang killed the empress dowager himself, leaving behind a trace of her soul, and then injected her remaining soul into Jiang Ning's body, forming his seventh-level mimicry magic."

Qin Xiaoxian's eyes narrowed into a line.

Jiang Chuyang!

"This little emperor is also a ruthless person. I was there at the time. He didn't say a word, nor did he show any hatred towards Jiang Chuyang, but I felt from the fluctuations of his soul that he wanted to kill Jiang Chuyang. But Jiang Chuyang holds a trace of the empress dowager's soul. If necessary, he can just kill her and Jiang Ning's seventh-level strength will be unstable." Gong Chang sighed.

Qin Xiaoxian smiled coldly and said, "This is Jiang Chuyang's wishful thinking. He uses the Queen Mother's soul to control Jiang Ning, making him his tool but unable to betray him. He is quite a character."

Gong Chang nodded and said, "Yes, that's what my uncle said. But I don't quite understand. He is already an eighth-level great mage. What else does he want to do... Maybe the ninth level?"

Gong Chang was really shocked by his own thoughts: "Oh my God, he wants to ascend to the ninth level against all odds?"

"Who?" Qin Xiaoxian suddenly fired an ice ball in one direction.

The ice ball suddenly flew out dozens of meters and suddenly hovered in the air.

A man walked out slowly, stretched out his hand and grabbed the ice ball. The ice ball slowly melted and finally turned into nothingness, without even a trace of ice properties left.

It’s Jiang Chuyang!

"Haha, you are the nephew of Magician Zheng? I remember seeing you in his secret room. Jiang Ning said you were a spy from Meda City and wanted to use you to lure out Qin Xiaoxian. He actually guessed right."

"Chief Kasi, Qin Bodang, did you kill them all?" Qin Xiaoxian looked at Jiang Chuyang coldly and asked.

"Cast? Monsters? I've killed a lot of them in the past few months. The success rate for monster species is not high, and the success rate for high-level monsters is shockingly low."

"Did you also create the monster?" Qin Xiaoxian asked.

"That's right. You have to say, this kid Jiang Ning is really good. I don't know what benefits he promised to the emperor of the Linhai Empire, but he actually made the Linhai royal family take out all the secret methods of the monster species. This monster species is really effective in improving Jiang Ning's cultivation, but the high-level ones are too difficult to deal with. You know, the higher the level, the fewer souls it devours. Jiang Ning only consumes three or four souls a month to satisfy the monster species' devouring. It's really good." Jiang Chuyang was obviously in a good mood.

So that's how it is. The demon species needs to devour and burn souls to provide cultivation for the host. Jiang Ning will have to devour souls continuously throughout his life to satisfy the demon species.

“But once he reaches the eighth level and eighth stage, this monster will be difficult to control, right?” Qin Xiaoxian said.

"At that time, I won't worry about it, because Jiang Ning has been devoured by me, hahahaha." Jiang Chuyang laughed even more heartily when he heard Qin Xiaoxian say this, "If you have any other questions, ask quickly."

"It seems that you appreciate your masterpiece." Qin Xiaoxian said with a smile.

"That's right! You know, this feeling of no one appreciating me is so uncomfortable. I have to tell people about it every time. Otherwise, if no one knows about my genius, wouldn't it be too boring? Then I will kill him. This way, at least I can be satisfied for a while."

"Pervert! You will die a horrible death!" Gong Chang said with disgust.

With a bang, Gong Chang exploded into countless pieces. Qin Xiaoxian stared blankly at the broken body of the magician Gong Chang beside her, and did not even see how Jiang Chuyang did it.

"Is his strength even more terrifying than it was more than 20 years ago?!" Qin Xiaoxian felt heavy-hearted.

But he saw a demon's tentacle slowly extending from Jiang Chuyang's neck, for a moment, and then disappeared.

It turns out that Jiang Chuyang also used the demon seed!

Jiang Chuyang knew from Qin Xiaoxian's eyes that he had been discovered, so he touched his neck and smiled bitterly: "I was tricked by Bai Kong a few years ago, and my strength has never recovered. This time Jiang Ning made such a fun thing, so of course I have to keep the best one for myself. When I reach the ninth level, I will naturally be able to remove it."

"So, you want to kill me now?" Qin Xiaoxian asked, feeling the fluctuations of fire magic around Jiang Chuyang's body.

"To be honest, you remind me of a guy from decades ago. He was a cook, and he used magic in cooking. Isn't that amazing? Haha." Jiang Chuyang laughed. Beside him, a big red-haired man slowly appeared. It was his eighth-level mimicry magic.

"Haha, is that so? The great magician Jiang has lived for too long and met too many people. It's understandable that he made a mistake." The four colors of energy in Qin Xiaoxian's hands slowly merged.

Jiang Chuyang frowned and said in a lost voice: "You! What is your relationship with that chef Qin? No! You are him?! How come you are still so young? You are at the eighth level? No, it's impossible, why?"

Jiang Chuyang was really confused. Was the young man in front of him the same person as the Chef Qin who was disguised as a man twenty or thirty years ago?

If so, why hasn't he changed? If not, where does this familiar feeling come from?
