The next evening.
Chen Xuan appeared directly above the military camp.
He engaged in a fierce battle with dozens of First Grade warriors.
Eventually, even Zhou Zheng showed up, and the two had a huge fight. The battle between two High-Layer of Purity experts turned the surrounding area into ruins, and even the void was torn with several cracks.
Of course,
In the end, he still managed to take the people away.
Zhou Zheng was furious on the spot and issued a kill order, promising any conditions to whoever could kill Chen Xuan.
...
In Donghuang Commandery, as soon as Qi Lin got the news, he went to see Xia Lingyu.
"Your Highness, something feels off!"
His brows furrowed deeply.
Barging alone into the Great Zhou Camp, and even alerting Zhou Zheng in the end, just to take away those Red Flame Sect people?
Even if Chen Xuan is considered to be with the Red Flame Sect, he feels it wasnât worth it.
Too risky!
Or was there some transaction between Zhou Zheng and Chen Xuan?
Even Xia Lingyu couldnât quite grasp it, so she asked, "Where are those people?"
"They went to Youlan Mansion!"
They even walked straight out through the city gate.
"Even Zhou Zheng couldnât do anything to him?" She didnât really care about those people; there were only a dozen or so from the Red Flame Sect.
What shocked her was Chen Xuanâs strength.
Even Zhou Zheng couldnât handle him. What level of Purity was he at?
"What should we do now?"
Should we get involved with those from the Red Flame Sect or not?
If we do, weâll have to face this terrifying master, Chen Xuan. If we donât, it will damage Great Xiaâs reputation.
After all, at that time, Your Majesty decreed to kill all sect members without mercy.
"Forget it, with the major battle imminent, letâs not create more problems. There arenât many people anyway, let him have them!"
"Yes!"
Qi Lin was somewhat surprised by her decision, but since Xia Lingyu said so, he certainly wouldnât interfere anymore.
...
After about ten days.
Chen Xuan and his party finally arrived at Youlan Mansion.
At that moment, in an annex in the city.
"Sect Leader, this annex is what I instructed them to buy a few days ago, consider it a gift to the Red Flame Sect. You can all live here from now on."
This annex was bought in advance by Pei Yuenan for them, and itâs big enough to accommodate them all.
"Thank you very much!"
"Itâs only natural. After all, Iâm also a disciple of the Red Flame Sect, just making a small contribution to the sect."
"What does Great Xia mean by this?"
Even though they had arrived at Youlan Mansion, Zhu Yun was still a bit worried. After all, Great Xia used to kill sect members without mercy.
"Rest assured, there wonât be any problems!"
He had openly brought them back to Youlan Mansion for Great Xia to see.
But in these ten days, there had been no movement from Great Xia, which meant everything was fine.
Moreover, the commotion at the Great Zhou Camp was enough to deter those from Great Xia. If they dared act, they had to consider if they could withstand his wrath.
This world operates on strength; if youâre strong, you can do as you please.
"Hooâ"
Zhu Yun let out a long breath, then bowed deeply to him, "Thank you, the Red Flame Sect is safe."
What he cared most about was the sect.
During his time in Great Zhou, he worried about this every day but was helpless.
Now, it seemed the ancestor of the Red Flame Sect had blessed them!
Chen Xuan stood there, enduring his great bow, then smiled and said, "If you need anything, you can come to Chen Mansion to find me. Even if Iâm not around, just leave a message."
"I wonât disturb you any longer!"
With that, he stepped into the air and left.
He needed to hurry back to Chen Mansion; Master was still waiting for him.
"Xiu Chen has taken on a good disciple!"
Zhu Yun sighed softly.
...
At Chen Mansion!
Master sat in the grand hall at the rear courtyard.
Several of Chen Xuanâs women stood there, the most excited among them being Liu Rushi.
"Master Chen, finally weâre meeting!"
Tears finally couldnât be contained at this moment.
"Alright, alright, donât cry, donât cry!" Chen Xiu was deeply moved, coming full circle back to Chen Mansion.
"Master!"
Chen Xuan hadnât arrived yet, but his voice had already reached them.
A moment later, he appeared in the hall.
"Everythingâs arranged! Primordial Thunder and those from the sect are living together."
"Good, good, youâve worked hard."
Chen Xiu nodded repeatedly, and finally, his heart settled down.
In his heart, besides Chen Xuan, there was only the sect.
"Alright, donât cry anymore. From now on, Master will live here, and you should take good care of the old man."
Chen Xuan held Liu Rushi in his arms and comforted her.
"Mm!"
She nodded heavily, then smiled!
...
That night,
Chen Xuan was very happy and drank with Master until late at night.
He didnât even know how he got back to his room.
In the morning!
He slowly opened his eyes and even felt a slight pain in his head.
With a slight movement of his spiritual power, the pain disappeared.
"It seems I shouldnât block my spiritual power to drink in future!"
This is only within the Youlan Mansion, at home, otherwise it would be too dangerous, all broken up.
"Do you remember how you got back last night?"
At this moment, Pei Yuenan in his arms woke up and asked with a smile.
"I donât remember!"
"You canât do that anymore, especially outside, got it?"
Pei Yuenan was particularly serious at this point.
She knew that Chen Xuan had been too happy yesterday, so he got carried away.
But it was really too dangerous.
"Got it! Just this once, it will never happen again!" Chen Xuan immediately promised.
Even if she didnât say it, he would pay attention.
"Hmm!"
Pei Yuenan nodded, and just as she was about to get up, she was pulled back by Chen Xuan, who whispered into her ear, "Was anything different last night?"
"You..."
Pei Yuenan gave him a big roll of her eyes, really canât be serious for a moment.
"Haha!"
Chen Xuan laughed and then let her go.
...
Time flew by, and in no time, half a month had passed.
Early in the morning, Chen Xuan hurried from Youlan Mansion to Guhe Commandery.
In the room, he opened the panel immediately.
His gaze locked on the final skill points, only over 420,000 points, still about half way to upgrading the Nine Elements Dao Skill (Immortal Grade) to the fourth layer.
By cultivating daily, he could increase progress by more than 1000 points!
His brow slightly furrowed, at this rate it would take at least another two months.
"Too slow!"
I wonder how many skill points Su Yun will increase if he breaks through to the second grade?
He had already evolved the Cloud Soaring Technique into a first-grade cultivation technique, but the little girl had slowed down since reaching the third grade.
At the current speed, wanting to rely on herself to cultivate to the second grade is no longer a matter of time, it requires an extremely high talent.
Very difficult!
She was originally an ordinary girl, unlike him who had a system, reaching the third grade was already very hard.
Wanting to reach the second grade, itâs difficult!
"Whatâs wrong?"
At this point, Xuan Er came in, seeing his worried face, then asked.
"Iâm wondering if thereâs a way to improve a martial artistâs cultivation talent?"
Just in time, Xuan Er came, although now his strength canât compare to his own, but in terms of experience or knowledge, it still doesnât measure up to him.
As the saying goes, ginger gets hotter with age, and thereâs truth to it.
"Whatâs up? Hit a bottleneck in cultivation? But I must remind you, being slower isnât bad, cultivating too quickly can lead to unstable foundations, which may cause major problems later."
His discipleâs cultivation was too smooth and too fast, which was what he had been worrying about.
"No, my cultivation is very steady, you can rest assured about this, itâs just a few women at home, their talent isnât great, so I was wondering if thereâs a way to boost it!"
Chen Xuan quickly explained.
What problems could he have, relying on the system for a smooth upgrade, very stable.
More solid than those who cultivate on their own.
Sometimes he also wondered where the warm flow provided by the system came from.
Could it be a sudden appearance?
But then he thought it unreasonable.
Thinking it through, still got no answers.
"So? Let me think,"
Knowing itâs not him, he was relieved.
Soon Xuan Er spoke, "Actually, thereâs a way, like leveraging the National Spirit, but thatâs impossible for you."
Nonsense!
Chen Xuan really wanted to roll his eyes at him.
National Spirit, he said it.
"But I remember thereâs another method," upon saying this, he suddenly paused and intentionally smiled at him.
Chen Xuan was ready to listen to him continue, but unexpectedly, he stopped.
And had a mischievous smile.
"My master, hurry up and say it, donât keep me guessing!"
Really exhausting, old guy still acting like a child, just like Ye Yilan, no wonder they became brothers of life and death.
"Whoâs the one that was impatient just now?"
Xuan Er asked softly.
"Isnât it okay if I admit my mistake?"
Chen Xuan wanted to cry but thereâs no tears, old guy really arguing with him.
Seeing this, Xuan Er stopped teasing him and directly said, "Divine Soul Liquid!"
This thing works, but itâs very rare!
"Divine Soul Liquid!"
Chen Xuan whispered these three words.
"Where can you get it?"
Whether itâs rare or not doesnât matter, the key is who has it? Thatâs the important point.
"Only Xia Yi has it! What are you planning?"
"Ughâ"
Chen Xuan was suddenly speechless, he had it in his hand, that...
Now the only one in the Nine Provinces he dreads is Xia Yi, if he has it, then itâs hard to deal with.
Rob?
Thatâs courting death!
Hard to manage!
With anyone else, you could discuss, but Xia Yi, he doesnât dare!
"But you can try finding Xia Lingyu, see if she has some, after all, her average talent initially was due to consuming this Divine Soul Liquid that her cultivation advanced rapidly."
Actually saying Xia Yi was just to intentionally tease him.
Now the kid is indeed somewhat fearless.
He didnât discuss with anyone and went to the Great Zhou camp causing a huge ruckus, afterward telling him it was agreed with Zhou Zheng, just going through the motions.
But it truly frightened him into a cold sweat.
So intentionally knocked him a bit, letting him know, there are still people stronger than him, tone it down.
