Chapter 1052: Chapter 565: Successful Crossing Tribulation! Great Gains!
After a moment of silence, he continued:
âBut it is quick, it seems that this Divine Weapon has gained quite a bit of benefit following you during this period.â
âI see, thank you, senior.â
With Moluoâs response, Chen Yuan finally let go of some of the worry he had.
Indeed, Moluo was right. The Tribulation Thunder in the void brewed for about a hundred breaths and then strangely dissipated, and soon the night sky returned to a cloudless scene.
The high-hanging moonlight again spilled over the human world, and everything was not much different from before.
âRoar!!!â
The Black Dragon Soul roared in the void, as Heaven and Earth Primordial Energy frantically surged into the Emperor Slaughter Saber. It circled the blade nine times, revealing an excited thought, and finally plunged into it.
Having survived the tribulation, the spirit of the Emperor Slaughter Saber soared, rapidly flying to Chen Yuanâs position, stopping in front of him.
With just a glance, Chen Yuan noticed the difference in the Emperor Slaughter Saber. Its appearance hadnât changed, but its spirit was more abundant, and its aura was much stronger.
Reaching out, he gripped the handle and slashed downward.
Hundreds of feet of Sword Light crashed down, cutting over the river, due to being slashed along the river, it triggered towering waves, and this slash widened the river channel significantly.
Its power was more potent!
Taking a deep breath, Chen Yuan sheathed the Emperor Slaughter Saber again, looked at Moluo, and began asking about the secluded meditation situation, as well as that trace of Demon Flame.
Moluo didnât explain much and only mentioned that the Buddha Phase and Demon Phase were entangled.
After a brief chat, Chen Yuan expressed his situation, curious about Moluoâs response.
As expected, after pondering for a moment, Moluo seriously told him that he absolutely couldnât agree to the marriage, or be involved with the Sima Family.
Otherwise, it would be very troublesome in the future.
Even if it meant turning against them prematurely, he couldnât agree.
This made Chen Yuan firm in his thoughts, and he actively sought assistance, hoping Moluoâs secluded meditation could be delayed for a few days, since the court meeting was approaching.
He believed that Jingtai, after giving him the Heavenly Divine Envoy, would certainly force a decision.
It couldnât be put off any longer.
Moluo naturally agreed, then returned to the Emperor Slaughter Saber, though the remaining unresolved Tribulation Thunder made him slightly uncomfortable.
The Emperor Slaughter Saber successfully crossed the tribulation and became a Sixth Tribulation Divine Weapon, and was just one step away from being a Seven Tribulation Divine Weapon. As its master, Chen Yuan naturally felt delighted.
The stronger it became, the stronger he became!
Originally, Chen Yuan intended to take the momentum and refine the Flood Dragon Pearl himself to increase his cultivation, but after consulting Moluo, he decided to put it off.
If his cultivation surged, it would certainly delay several days.
After settling Zhang Wanshu, it wouldnât be too late. He could use the excuse of secluded meditation to avoid attending the court meeting this time.
Thinking about this, Chen Yuan let out a long, impure breath.
Then, he returned to the Dragon Gate Crossing.
Only, there were already few people left here, and the remaining ones were audacious, seeking wealth through danger, diving to the bottom of the river to seek treasures.
Chen Yuan glanced but didnât bother with them and continued his way, traversing to Linâan Prefecture City.
Previously, before he left, he saw Zhang Wanshu with Princess Pingyang, so he wasnât worried. He had no intention to marry her, but he genuinely admired her.
If the implications werenât so huge, he wouldnât mind her being his little princess.
The kind who enjoys everything without sufferingâŠ..
Linâan Prefecture City is vast, searching bit by bit using Divine Thought was unrealistic and too time-consuming. Chen Yuan originally wanted to find Jiang Xiong to deploy manpower to search.
But after some thought, he considered they might be at the inn where they previously stayed.
Instantly, he traversed directly to the inn.
Then, under the search of Divine Thought, he indeed found Zhang Wanshu and Princess Pingyang, they were both in the same room, seemingly chatting about something.
For instance.
âWhen did you meet Chen Yuan?â
âHow far have things progressed?â
âWanshu, rest assured, Iâm just curious, I really have no feelings for Marquis Wuâan.â
âYour Highness, donât say such things, I am as clear as white with Marquis Wuâan.â
âReally?â
âI swearâŠ.â
âAhemâŠ.â
Chen Yuan coughed lightly twice, unable to continue listening, and immediately knocked on the room door.
âWho?â
From inside the room came the cool voice of Princess Pingyang.
âItâs me.â
âThe Marquis has returned.â
This was the voice of Zhang Wanshu.
âMarquis Wuâan, please come in, no need to be concerned about anything.â
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan opened the door with a creak, Princess Pingyang and Zhang Wanshu were both sitting honestly, the only difference being the slight redness on Zhang Erjieâs face.
She seemed to feel that the previous conversations were overheard by Chen Yuan.
What if itâs misunderstood?
âMany thanks to Your Highness for taking care of Erjie.â
Chen Yuan responded with a smile.
âWanshu is quite likable to me, Marquis Wuâan, no need to thank.â
âHa ha.â
âIndeed, Iâm also curious, before the Carps Leap Dragon Gate began, I saw Marquis Wuâan, why did you leave when it started, leaving Wanshu alone behind?â
Princess Pingyang looked at Chen Yuan with a faint smile.
âEncountered some matters that needed handling.â
Chen Yuan was unwilling to elaborate.
Princess Pingyang, being a smart woman, seeing Chen Yuan reluctant to say more, didnât press further, immediately rising to take her leave:
âIâm staying at a nearby inn, Green Envoy, if assistance is needed, donât hesitate.â
âWell, then many thanks, Your Highness.â
Princess Pingyang nodded, hesitating briefly as she passed Chen Yuan, speaking softly:
âCongratulations to Marquis Wuâan on your massive gains tonight.â
âYour Highness, why not make it clearer.â
Chen Yuan knew what she referred to and understood he was likely exposed, but as long as he didnât admit it, what could she do?
Princess Pingyang chuckled without further words, turned, and left, closing the room door effortlessly.
Zhang Wanshuâs face immediately turned incomparably red, lowering her head and saying:
âIâŠ.I felt Your Highness seems to like you a bit, wouldnât she be upset about us?â
âŠ.
