"What exactly did you say to him?"
"I told you to be cautious! Cautious!"
"Didnât I just give you a signal with my eyes?"
....
As soon as he returned to the room, he heard Qin Yingâs roaring voice and immediately grinned mischievously.
"Whatâs wrong, hubby, who provoked Sister Qin?"
Luan Ying asked curiously.
After all, after spending so much time together, Qin Ying had not even raised her voice.
Let alone gotten angry.
"Enough, why is your curiosity so insatiable!"
Chen Xuan was truly exhausted.
Among the three women, she was the one who gave him the least peace of mind.
When first entering the Chen Mansion, it was still fine, but once she got familiar, her true nature could no longer be concealed.
"My heart is itching."â
Luan Ying stuck out her tongue.
"Come on, if itâs itching, Iâll treat it for you!"
Saying this, he directly picked her up, walked into the inner room, and didnât forget to glance at Ning Xin and Lan MengâEr, asking, "Are you coming?"
This... in broad daylight!
Ning Xin hesitated, while Lan MengâEr lowered her head and directly walked over.
"Such mischief!"
Though she said this, her feet began to move.
...
Although there were no rewards during the day, things still shouldnât be done with a profit-driven intent; thatâs... not good.
A battle of unusual thrill.
Chen Xuan waved his hand casually, dissipating the array.
After all, despite it being broad daylight, some attention should be paid.
"By the way, for the next few days, donât go out, stay in the inn."
Chen Xuan instructed the three women, who were panting heavily.
"Is there something major happening?"
"Huff huff..."
Luan Ying rolled over beside him, looking at him curiously with bright eyes.
"Youâre the most curious!"
Chen Xuan pinched her nose, scolded with a smile.
"Anyway, if something happens, just listen to what your husband says."
He didnât explain much.
"Even if you donât say, I can guess."â
Luan Ying pursed her lips, touching the nose that was pinched.
Then tentatively asked, "Is it about Sister Ning Immortal?"
"Is it?"
Ning Xin immediately asked.
She thought so too; Ning Immortal had left the August Inn for some time, and she had long sensed something was amiss.
Just never asked.
"Itâs almost there, but not quite, anyway, sheâll be fine, rest assured."
Chen Xuan comforted her.
"Hmm, I trust hubby."
For him, Ning Xin had absolute trust; as long as he said everything would be alright, then everything would definitely be alright.
...
At dusk.
A series of alarming auras appeared at the August Inn.
There was even one aura that Chen Xuan felt immense pressure from, and facing this aura, he felt like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Inside Qin Yingâs room.
"Greetings, your highnesses!"
A middle-aged man dressed in black, with hair just down to his shoulders, a square face, and sword-like eyebrows.
He gave off a vibe of unwavering integrity.
"Commander Jing, youâre too kind."
Qin Hong extended a hand with a smile, "Please have a seat!"
Facing the Grand Commander of the Dragon Guard, a top-tier expert of five Dao Realm layers, even he had to be polite.
Jing Shishu nodded slightly, "Thank you, your highness!"
Then he sat down without reservation.
"Besides the aura of Long Da and the prince, thereâs another aura that feels odd. Does the prince know who it is?"
After arriving at the August Inn, he scanned once.
He found two Dao Realm auras, but another personâs aura was unusually strange, giving him the feeling it was definitely not weaker than Dao Realm, yet it was Late-Stage Profound Realm.
He had lived for several thousand years, and this was his first time encountering such a situation.
So, he immediately asked.
"Even the Grand Commander canât see through him?"
Qin Hong was somewhat astonished, a master of five Dao Realm layers couldnât see through Chen Xuanâs disguise?
This... impossible, right?
"Hmm... itâs not just canât see through, how should I say!"
Jing Shishu pondered for a moment, explaining, "Just now I subtly tested him; he definitely has Dao Realm strength, especially his body, very strong!"
To hear the words âvery strongâ from him, be it Qin Ying or Qin Hong, they were both deeply shocked.
Because... Jing Shishu practiced Body Refinement type cultivation techniques.
And those were of the top-level kind.
"However... the aura on his body is indeed Late-Stage Profound Realm, that part confuses me."
Jing Shishuâs eyes were filled with perplexity.
"Princess, is he one of your people?"
Saying this, he turned to Qin Ying.
"Yes, but being at the Dao Realm, surely there are some secrets, which I donât wish to pry into."
Ever since she met Chen Xuan, he had been shrouded in numerous mysteries.
If she hadnât accidentally discovered some, she would probably still be in the dark by now.
Even now, honestly speaking, she couldnât get a clear real image of him.
"Forget it, if we donât know, then we donât know; reliability is what matters."
After all, being at the Dao Realm, who doesnât have some secrets of their own, then he asked Qin Hong, "Your highness, such urgent hurry for us to come to September City, is there some urgent matter?"
According to their original plan, they approximately needed three days to arrive.
After receiving Qin Hongâs message, they rushed with all their strength, and finally arrived in less than a day.
Thatâs why he was quite puzzled as to what happened.
Making him so eager.
"A major event!"
Qin Hongâs expression turned serious, then he explained the events at the Nine Immortals Tower in detail.
"What audacity Demon Realm has!"
Jing Shishu shouted fiercely, his sword-like eyebrows now resembling sharp blades, and a trace of killing intent emanated from him.
Qin Hong was fine, but Qin Ying, with only Late-Stage Profound Realm strength, felt an icy chill that made her complexion start to pale.
"Grand Commander!"
Qin Hong hurriedly called out.
"Apologies!"
The killing intent was instantly restrained, and he nodded slightly towards Qin Ying, "Sorry for frightening your highness!"
