Chapter 339: Joining the Ice Feather Institute

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“What just happened?!”

The young man named Lu Wang, who was just about to be captured and offered to the deputy institute head, was stunned.

He thought that his life was at the end of its rope, but he didn’t expect the situation to change so suddenly. In a blink of an eye, all of his pursuers were all killed.

“This…”

The seriously injured old man looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.

“Uncle Jiang!”

Lu Wang quickly went to the injured old man and helped him sit up.

“Uncle Jiang, are you okay?”

Lu Wang didn’t have time to figure out the reason for what happened in front of him. He first asked Uncle Jiang’s condition with concern.

Uncle Jiang waved his hand. He forced himself to speak loudly to the dense forest. “Which friend secretly helped us?”

“It’s me.”

Xu Ning walked out of the forest after Uncle Jiang spoke.

“You are?”

Uncle Jiang was a little surprised when he saw Xu Ning’s young face.

He could feel that this young man was a rank four arcanist, and furthermore, he was a rank four arcanist that could instantly kill a peer of the same rank.

Uncle Jiang was puzzled.

This young man was a stranger, so why was he willing to take the risk to fight for them? Was he really just standing up for justice?

“My name is Xu Ning, and I am a lone arcanist from the north of the Barren Wind Region.”

Xu Ning did not hide his identity.

“A lone arcanist?”

Uncle Jiang and Lu Wang looked shocked.

It was not uncommon to see lone arcanists, but it was rare to see one reach rank four.

The cultivation resources of lone arcanists were extremely difficult to obtain, and the advancement environment was much more difficult than normal. There were only a few lone arcanists who could advance to rank four or above in the entire southern part of the Barren Wind Region. Moreover, Xu Ning was still so young.

“That’s right.”

Xu Ning nodded.

Uncle Jiang paused for a moment before getting up with Lu Wang’s help. He cupped his fists and thanked Xu Ning, “Thank you for saving us, Young Master and I are very grateful.”

Xu Ning smiled and did not respond.

Uncle Jiang was intrigued. Xu Ning’s reaction meant that he accepted his gratitude.

“Brother Xu, you have helped us a lot. We don’t know what you want in return, but we will try our best to satisfy you.”

Uncle Jiang vaguely noticed that Xu Ning seemed to have a purpose in saving them.

However, Uncle Jiang did not find this inappropriate.

If Xu Ning was really generous and did not ask for repayment, then Uncle Jiang would be suspicious of the whole situation.

“Brother Jiang…”

Xu Ning followed Uncle Jiang’s words and said, “When I was hiding just now, I heard some of your conversation…”

Uncle Jiang’s eyes twitched.

“Your young master seems to be the successor of a certain arcanist institution?”

Xu Ning took the initiative to bring up his goal.

Uncle Jiang glanced at Lu Wang and nodded. “Yes.”

“My young master is the successor of the Ice Feather Institute.”

Uncle Jiang responded.

Seeing Lu Wang and his current situation, there was no need to hide anything from him.

Moreover, since Xu Ning had heard their conversation just now, he probably had a rough understanding of their situation.

“The previous head of the Ice Feather Institute was Young Master’s grandfather.”

Uncle Jiang said, “Because Young Master’s parents both died in a turmoil, the Old Institute Head attached a lot of importance to Young Master. He had long thought of grooming Young Master as the successor of the Ice Feather Institute.”

“Half a year ago, Young Master improved and advanced to a rank three arcanist. When heard about this, the Old Institute Head was very happy and asked me to bring Young Master around to broaden his horizons and improve his combat ability.”

“Thus, I took Young Master around the center of the Barren Wind Region. At the end of it all, Young Master has gained a lot from this trip, but just when we were about to go to the west of the Barren Wind Region, news came that the Old Institute Head had suddenly passed away and Yin Qingleng, a powerful instructor of the Ice Feather Institute, has become the deputy institute head.”

There was a look of sadness in Uncle Jiang’s eyes when he said this.

Obviously, he had a deep relationship with the Old Institute Head.

“After receiving the news, we returned to the southern part of the Barren Wind Region with our entourage. But just when we were about to reach the southern part of the Barren Wind Region, we were suddenly hunted down. And these pursuers were all from the Ice Feather Institute, and they were all direct subordinates of Yin Qingleng.”

Uncle Jiang’s eyes were a little cold. “These people did not hide their motives at all. They unabashedly revealed their identities. They accepted Yin Qingleng’s orders to kill us, in order to allow Yin Qingleng to hold the position of the acting institute head.”

“The reason for this is because the Old Institute Head still has a lot of supporters in the Icy Feather Institute. Once Young Master returns, Yin Qingleng will definitely lose his position as the acting institute head, so he needed to kill him.”

“Is that so…”

Xu Ning nodded.

“So, what are your next plans?”

Xu Ning asked again.

“I’m not sure yet.”

Uncle Jiang’s expression was hesitant. “Yin Qingleng didn’t succeed this time, so he will definitely take further action. If we insist on returning to the Ice Feather Institute, we will definitely have to face Yin Qingleng’s sneak attacks. But if I leave with Young Master and give up the position of the Ice Feather Institute Head, then I am really unwilling…”

“Brother Jiang, how is the overall strength of the Ice Feather Institute in the southern part of the Barren Wind Region?”

Xu Ning suddenly asked.

Uncle Jiang glanced at Xu Ning and answered truthfully, “It can be regarded as a medium-sized arcanist faction. When the Old Institute Head was alive, he was a rank six arcanist, so the Ice Feather Courtyard was quite famous.”

“What is Yin Qingleng’s strength?”

Xu Ning pondered and asked.

“He is a rank five arcanist.”

Uncle Jiang said.

“A rank five arcanist…”

Xu Ning nodded in deep thoughts.

After a long time, Xu Ning said, “Brother Jiang, can I join your Ice Feather Institute?”

“You want to join the Ice Feather Institute?”

Uncle Jiang looked at Xu Ning in surprise.

Xu Ning looked at Uncle Jiang and nodded.

In fact, Xu Ning wanted to use this opportunity to join this arcanist organization.

After all, his subordinates were all rank four arcanists, so they were definitely an extraordinary institution.

Just as Xu Ning guessed, the Ice Feather Institute was considered a medium-sized secret arcanist faction in the southern part of the Barren Wind Region.

Uncle Jiang looked at Xu Ning and came to a realization.

So this was Xu Ning’s goal for helping them all along.

Uncle Jiang could understand this. As a lone arcanist, it was definitely difficult for Xu Ning to obtain resources, so joining an arcanist institution was indeed the best choice.

‘This Xu Ning is also a peak rank-four arcanist. If he can return to the Ice Feather Institute with us, we will have an additional powerful helper. With him on our side, we will have more confidence to fight against Yin Qingleng.’

Uncle Jiang thought to himself.
