Chapter 1533 The Untamed 13
Lan Qiren was of course willing to believe Jiang Cheng, but the matter of the Yin Iron was of great importance and they could not afford any omissions, so he stepped forward and played the bad guy: "Master Jiang, how did you determine that the runes on the Yin Iron represented a contract? And is there any way to purify it?"
Not to mention that the elders of the Lan clan stood on Lan Qiren's side, even the elders of the Jiang clan were looking at Jiang Cheng, waiting for him to produce substantial evidence. It was because the Yin Iron was too important and they really couldn't afford even the slightest bad result.
Jiang Cheng also understood that only facts could speak for themselves at the moment. His cultivation was almost ready to be used, so he took out the fragment that had been sealed by Lan Yi and started to cast a spell. Upon seeing this, the elders of the Jiang family hurriedly followed Wei Ying to protect Jiang Cheng.
The elders of the Lan family wanted to object, but Lan Zhan insisted and Lan Qiren acquiesced, so they didn't say anything.
Purifying Yin Iron is not easy. Lan Zhan has seen it once, but Jiang Cheng’s cultivation at that time was not what it is today, so he was very worried.
Even though Wei Ying was protecting Jiang Cheng quietly and seriously at the moment, he was actually quite talented in the art of talismans and had figured out a lot of tricks. But since Jiang Cheng didn't want to bother arguing with those old-fashioned people from the Lan family, he just followed Jiang Cheng and did it.
Even though the Yin Iron is only used to make a contract or a token of trust, the fact that it can be taken out by the underworld as a token of trust to a small world must be precious and rare in itself. Even if people's development of it has been limited to absorbing and transforming various Qi for hundreds of years, its broken into pieces does not affect its functions at all. Doesn't this prove its extraordinaryness?
Purifying the Yin Iron is not so much about purifying the Yin Iron itself as it is about consuming the resentment and hostility absorbed by the Yin Iron.
If Jiang Cheng had not recovered his memory, he would most likely have had to watch the Yin Iron fragments helplessly, and at most come up with a way to use the sun to eliminate the resentment and hostility. But after he recovered his memory, using his own vital magic power and the laws of life he had mastered, it was enough to wipe out the seemingly endless resentment and hostility in the Yin Iron fragments.
Of course, something as important as Yin Iron could not be purified too easily, so with Lan Zhan's occasional glances, Jiang Cheng dragged out the work that could have been completed in one or two hours for seven or eight days before he was finally "barely" finished. Moreover, during this period, except for eating and washing, he even replaced sleeping with meditation and practice. The sense of ritual was fully demonstrated!
Except for Lan Zhan and Wei Ying, even the elders of Jiang Clan gradually realized that Jiang Cheng had put on a show for the Lan Clan. They couldn't help but raise their opinion of Jiang Cheng in their hearts, especially Jiang Cheng's current level of cultivation, which they could no longer understand at all.
However, such a person happens to be the young master of their Yunmeng Jiang family. They can only be excited and proud, and will not think too much about it. They will also try to help hide it from the Lan family to avoid unnecessary trouble.
The purified Yin Iron fragments have changed from their pitch-black appearance that made them look ominous and creepy. Although they still look black, the jade-like light on them makes them look low-key, luxurious and restrained, which makes people love them.
Lan Qiren took the purified Yin Iron fragment from Jiang Cheng and felt it was slightly cool. It was no longer as cold as before. He could not help but nodded and turned to thank Jiang Cheng seriously: "Mr. Jiang, you are so kind. On behalf of the Lan family, I would like to thank you today."
Jiang Cheng said weakly that it was nothing to worry about, "I just did what a cultivator should do."
Lan Qiren admired Jiang Cheng more and more. Although Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying had minor flaws in their personalities, they had everything in terms of cultivation, ability, and character, and were even very outstanding. He really wished he had a child like this in his own family.
However, speaking of younger generations like Jiang Cheng, Lan Qiren thought of his two nephews at home. Although Lan Huan and Lan Zhan were not as good as Jiang Cheng and Wei Ying, they were also among the best among the hundreds of immortal families. He did not have the problem of expecting more, but he made up his mind to supervise Lan Huan and Lan Zhan well when he returned and let them improve their cultivation seriously.
Jiang Cheng did not hide anything about purifying the Yin Iron fragments, and directly expressed his thoughts: "This Yin Iron contains endless resentment and hostility. If you want to purify it, one way is to use pure Yang spiritual power to offset it. The second way is to use the spiritual power full of vitality of water attribute like me to calm the resentment and hostility while injecting vitality and dissolving the dead energy."
That’s right, although resentment and hostility do not come directly from death, they are closely related to the dead air and yin energy brought by death. People in today’s world cannot even distinguish between resentment, hostility, dead air and yin energy, so how can we expect them to solve the problems in a targeted manner?
After listening to Jiang Cheng's words, Lan Qiren simply handed the other two pieces of Yin Iron to Jiang Cheng, "Mr. Jiang, we all know your character and abilities. Now these pieces of Yin Iron will be handed over to you to deal with."
Jiang Cheng was really a little surprised. Even though Lan Qiren was a gentleman of great rank, he still valued the Lan family. He never expected that Lan Qiren would directly hand over all the Yin Iron fragments to him for safekeeping and disposal.
Lan Qiren further explained: "We cannot confuse Wen Ruohan with Yin Tie at this moment, but Wen Ruohan's ambition has expanded and he has killed many innocent people. The Lan family has no reason to stop him for now, but that does not mean they agree with such behavior."
This is the tacit understanding among the hundreds of immortal families. The five major families have their own territories under their jurisdiction. These territories generally do not touch each other, and naturally they are very reluctant to cross the boundary.
Even before, when the Wen family raised Shui Xingyuan and couldn't deal with him, they secretly rushed to Lan family's territory. Lan family could certainly use this to get solid evidence and ask Wen family to give a reasonable explanation. But at that time, Lan family had no direct evidence to prove that Shui Xingyuan that appeared in Biling Lake was related to Wen family, so they could only swallow this loss.
Now Lan Qiren handed all the Yin Iron fragments to Jiang Cheng. First of all, he saw Jiang Cheng's ability and was sure that he could purify the Yin Iron fragments. Secondly, Jiang Cheng's cultivation was higher than those old guys, and the Yin Iron would only be safer in his hands.
Of course, he did have a certain element of moral blackmail. After all, their Lan family did preserve a piece of Yin Iron fragment. Logically speaking, it was their Lan family who should have done more to deal with the Yin Iron. Now he shifted the blame to Jiang Cheng because he saw that the Yin Iron was really rare. Although it was impossible for Jiang Cheng to keep it in his hands after purification, it was a good thing for Jiang Cheng to take the opportunity to comprehend it, and it could be regarded as compensation.
If Lan Qiren dared to give, Jiang Cheng would dare to accept. Lan Zhan quietly went to discuss with Lan Qiren, "Uncle, we can't put all the Yin Iron matters on Mr. Jiang. How about I go to Yunmeng with Mr. Jiang?"
Lan Qiren had already noticed that Lan Zhan treated Jiang Cheng differently, but he thought that this was Lan Zhan finally wanting to make friends, so he readily agreed and even specifically told Lan Zhan to see and learn more when he went to Yunmeng.
