Chapter 11

Gao Yue said helplessly, "Jiang Chen, don't be too upset . It's better to break up with that kind of woman . "

"I will not sign the disengagement agreement,"Jiang Chen said, "I will write a certificate of divorce instead . "

"But in this way the Sus won't send people over here . " Cher felt this was a losing proposition .

"With the Su's attitude, even if they send people over here, it would be difficult to send them away later . We will probably have to try our best to please them, but they won't necessarily give us any help," Jiang Chen said .

"Son, are you sure?" It was difficult for Gao Yue to make a decision .

"Yes . "

Jiang Chen was sure . He took pen and ink to write the certificate of divorce and then asked a servant to send it over to the Su's .

The Su's could refuse to accept the certificate of divorce . Su Qian could claim that she hadn't been cheating on Jiang Chen, so he couldn't divorce her for no reason .

But they were the ones who wanted disengagement . Jiang Chen had put them into a dilemma .

"But what should the east courtyard do?" Gao Yue was very worried .

"Mother, we should reduce the establishment and focus on our core industries . As for the other things, it's fine to hand them over to the west courtyard . "

Jiang Chen went on, saying, "After all, it will depend on grandpa whether the west courtyard can replace the east . The industry is only one of the things that grandpa evaluates . The more important thing is me . "

Gao Yue nodded . She understood what her son meant .

"If I can achieve the Gathering Yuan State before the spring festival, whatever the west courtyard has done it will only be in vain," Jiang Chen said .

"Only three months to go until the spring festival . Won't it be too difficult?"

"Mother, did you forget?"

Gao Yue recalled that old man with the white beard and nodded seriously .

"Besides, I am already in Cloud Seven . "

Jiang Chen's state had been enhanced in seven days through panaceas and the sky level method .

"You are?" Gao Yue looked at her son excitedly . All of her worries had disappeared instantly .

…

The news that Gao Yue hadn't gotten any help spread quickly, as well as the disengagement with the Su's . This way, the east courtyard's decline had become a consensus in the Southwind Ridge . Even Jiang Chen's brilliant achievement in the winter hunt couldn't reverse people's opinions . There even had been rumors floating around about the west courtyard petitioning the old lord to give the east courtyard to them .

Jiang Chen didn't bother with those rumors . He contributed all his time to practice . He achieved Cloud Nine in two months . Maybe it was because he had been in Cloud Nine . Although the loss of genuine Qi resulted in state degradation, starting all over again and repeating the whole process, of course, was faster than the first time . However, he was at a crucial point that he was unable to break through .

It will be a qualitative leap to cross the big gap between two states . With the aid of the sky level method and the holy pulse, it's a piece of cake to break through . But the thing is, there is only a month to go until the spring festival . But it's no use to be anxious . I'll just take the chance to study some martial techniques .

At the time of the spring festival, things wouldn't end with reporting your state level . There probably would be a fight .

Jiang Chen could hunt fierce beasts, but beasts didn't have wisdom . The human beings would be much more difficult to deal with . People gain strength from practice . But that's not enough . They have to make use of the strength they get . If you have the strength to move five hundred kilograms, but not even 10% of it can be put into use, your strength has no use . But things were like this a long time ago until forefathers with great wisdom created effective fighting methods like the fist method, palm method, sword method and the knife method . All of these are called martial techniques .

The practice of martial techniques is very stringent . For example, the powerful sword method can be given full play only when the person practicing it has great swordsmanship attainments . Swordsmanship doesn't come from nowhere . It requires practice of entry-level swordsmanship and accumulation of experience . The swordsmanship and other martial techniques collected in the Over Cloud Palace are for master level powerhouses .

If Jiang Chen insisted on practicing them, they would only do him harm instead of good . So, Jiang Chen called Fan Tu over . He asked Fan Tu to show him a basic martial technique, better than a sword method .

"Young Lord, you've been back to Cloud Nine? That's fantastic . You will be someone big even without the holy pulse!" Fan Tu was a direct man . No one else in the east courtyard had the nerve to mention the holy pulse in front of Jiang Chen . Fan Tu continued, "The master learnt his swordsmanship from the Taoist Priest Skywind . It cannot be spread out . Even though it could be, it wouldn't be useful to Young Lord . "

Jiang Chen understood what he meant . It was for the same reason that he was unable to practice the swordsmanship of the Over Cloud Palace . In short, if a person who practiced it with level one swordsmanship attainments persists in practicing a level four sword method, he will get nowhere .

Of course, martial techniques and swordsmanship attainments are not classified in such a simple way . But the logic is the same . Jiang Chen's current state didn't allow him to practice any of the martial techniques collected in the Over Cloud Palace . He gave Fan Tu that Dorje Subduing Demon because the latter was in the Gathering Yuan state and he had been practicing fist methods for decades . But even Fan Tu was only able to achieve the entry level after months of practice . Among all the martial techniques Jiang Chen knew, Dorje Subduing Demon was an inferior one .

Jiang Chen wanted to find a sword method suitable for him . It was for this purpose that he called Fan Tu over .

"Young Lord, wait for a second!" When Fan Tu got Jiang Chen's attention, he left the room and soon came back with some servants, who were carrying lots of books . The floor was heaped with books instantly .

"These martial techniques are the east courtyard's collection . Although they were dedicated to the Jiang Mansion, people from the east courtyard are not allowed to practice them, let alone the Young Lord . "

Jiang Chen watched the sword methods carefully . He had a yearning to be a swordsman . No one knew why . But in the Sacred Zone, eight out of ten top-level masters were swordsmen .

"Young Lord, what do you want? Generally speaking, what you like is what suits you . "

"Swords . "

Once he got the answer, Fan Tu picked the sword methods out for him .

Jiang Chen browsed them one by one and kept shaking his head . He thought to himself, these are insignificant for swords . What's really important is only the sharpness of a sword .

Jiang Chen finally found a suitable one . The Sword Method of the Holy Spirit .

"Young Master, you want to practice swords now? All right!"

The two of them came to the spacious yard . Fan Tu found him an extremely sharp iron sword, which had been edged .

Jiang Chen felt very emotional holding the sword .

The number one Sword Master in the Sacred Zone Yin Qianmo picked up a wooden sword when he was three . Without any experiences of practicing any sword methods, he reached the entry level just with some casual waves of the sword, and in this way beat his ten-year-old brother, who had practiced sword methods for five years .

The Sword Saint Dugu Yu was a knifeman at the beginning . He gave up the knife and picked up the sword when he was twenty . He became enlightened overnight on the 'The Sword Method to Kill' and then killed ninety-nine brutal vicious scoundrels in three days . The whole Sacred Zone was shocked by his feat .

How far will I get?

The Sword Method of the Holy Spirit was laid open to the first page on the ground . The first movement was shown by a little man on the page, with annotations below it .

Jiang Chen didn't stop reading until he memorized everything . With key points in mind, he started to wave the sword in his hand .

"Can't wait to see Young Lord's sword skills . " Fan Tu looked hopeful . His master was adept in using swords . For sure, the young lord had inherited this ability!

However, soon after, his face became embarrassed for what he was seeing .

Jiang Chen looked so clumsy when he was practicing sword methods .

Yes, very clumsy .
