Chapter 789 - 443: Subdue! _3

In an instant, Yao’Er stopped in her tracks, turned her head to look at him, and after a moment, spat out two words, "Hypocrite!"

"How many aren’t hypocrites?"

Chen Xuan retorted.

In the Martial Arts World, especially for people like them who stand at the top, having one face in front and another behind is simply too commonplace.

Being a bit hypocritical can actually protect oneself better, he thought it was quite good.

But that was for dealing with enemies; towards his own people, Chen Xuan had always been very genuine.

The two continued walking forward.

Suddenly, Yao’Er opened her mouth and asked, "Did you discover the Shadow Guards long ago? Including me?"

The more she thought about it, the more something felt amiss.

Tonight she was originally the Hunter, but who would have thought that this was simply a trap? She wasn’t the Hunter, she was the prey willingly jumping into the trap.

"Of course, the entire Moran City is under my control. Don’t mention the Shadow Guards, even a fly not belonging to Moran City couldn’t escape my eyes."

"So... in my eyes, the Shadow Guards are no different from a joke."

Even he himself admired his own decision back then to recruit Zhuo Wu; it was the best decision.

"Whew—"

Upon hearing this, Yao’Er let out a long breath and looked at him with apprehension.

How terrifying!

The entire Moran City was his; only he among the Great Yu Hundred Mansions could achieve this.

If he rebelled or colluded with Hidden Kill, then...

"I am loyal to Great Yu, you don’t need to doubt this, I simply don’t like the Shadow Guards."

"So you don’t have to think about those unnecessary things."

Seeing her expression, Chen Xuan could guess what was on her mind.

Of course, what he said was just surface talk; whether he was loyal depended on Great Yu – if he were reduced to a mere dog, he definitely wouldn’t accept that.

That’s why he had never refined that king’s seal.

Looking at her, it was clear, even at Dao Realm level five, she was so deeply affected, too terrifying.

"That’s for the best!"

As long as he remained loyal to Great Yu, that would be alright, but she still felt he was somewhat unstable.

"I wonder if the National Preceptor can remove the soul seed?"

Yao’Er was also unsure in her heart.

After all, a soul seed is planted in the sea of consciousness and becomes inseparable over time.

That’s exactly why the soul seed is so terrifying.

Now her soul was being suppressed by the Profound Yellow Tower, her Spiritual Power unusable, and with only a mere second-level Dao Realm power, she couldn’t run even if she wanted to.

"Sigh!"

She let out a faint sigh in her heart.

This sigh also made her resign to her fate.

....

In Prince Xuan’s Mansion, in Qiuyuan.

"Greetings, Lord Xuan King."

The Rat King respectfully bowed to Chen Xuan.

"No need, these past days have been hard on you."

"Dao Realm?!"

Yao’Er exclaimed, unable to believe that he, merely a prince of a mansion, actually had a subordinate in the Dao Realm, and who was so respectful, even humble towards him.

"No, that’s not right!"

Although her soul was suppressed and her Spiritual Power unusable, who was she? A disciple of the National Preceptor!

Her insight far surpasses that of others.

This person’s aura is noticeably weaker than a normal Dao Realm.

After a slight perception, she became more certain.

She then looked at Chen Xuan, "Is this your doing?"

"Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t. Knowing too much will shorten your life."

Chen Xuan said blandly.

But in his heart, he was extremely shocked, not expecting anything less from a disciple of the National Preceptor; she saw the problem in one glance.

However, Yao’Er’s heart was even more shocked than his, like tumultuous waves.

He actually had means to forcibly elevate someone to the Dao Realm.

This is the Dao Realm!

Not the Immortal Grade, not the Profound Realm!

These realms can be forcibly reached using certain means, but the Dao Realm, even the National Preceptor couldn’t achieve that.

At this moment, the look she gave Chen Xuan became wary.

If he could use this means on a mass scale, then....it would definitely be a catastrophe, a tremendous disaster!

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but feel helpless.

Seeing her expression, he could guess what she was thinking even without using Telepathy.

"It’s not as simple as you think. It’s very difficult, and the requirements are very high. Not just any Tom, Dick, or Harry can become a Dao Realm powerhouse."

"Really?"

Yao’Er deeply doubted what he said.

"Believe it or not!"

Chen Xuan didn’t bother to explain further, then activated several strands of Spiritual Power, sealing her Dantian directly.

"Didn’t you say you wouldn’t seal my Dantian?"

Feeling the Spiritual Power in her body like dead water, Yao’Er instantly panicked.

But Chen Xuan didn’t even look at her; instead, he instructed the Rat King, "Watch her, don’t let her run around, and she can stay in the leftmost room tonight."

"Yes, Lord Xuan King."

The Rat King slightly bowed, responding affirmatively.

Then, under Yao’Er’s gaze, Chen Xuan stepped into space and disappeared from Qiuyuan.

"Prince Xuan...."

Yao’Er called out loudly, but her only response was her own echo.

"Where did he go?"

Yao’Er turned to ask the Rat King.

But he directly sat cross-legged, only saying indifferently, "If you want to rest, go to the leftmost room; do not go elsewhere, and definitely do not leave Qiuyuan!"

With that, he immediately closed his eyes.

"You....!"

Yao’Er pointed at him, fuming with anger and wishing she could kill him.

A mere first-level Dao Realm, even forcefully elevated, dared ignore her, it was simply outrageous.

But her Dantian was sealed, and her soul was suppressed, Yao’Er forced herself to calm down.

After a while, "You’ve also been implanted with a soul seed, right?"

"Don’t you hate him?"

"Boom!"

The Rat King suddenly opened his eyes wide, and the aura of the Dao Realm surged forth.

Immediately, a powerful pressure descended upon Yao’Er.

It made her shiver all over; if not for her Body Tempering, she wouldn’t have been able to withstand it.

"Don’t use such petty tricks."

"I volunteered."

"If you try to sow discord again, don’t blame me for being impolite!"

The Rat King’s face turned grim, warning her.

He held deep respect for Chen Xuan, who allowed him to finally achieve his lifelong dream of reaching the Dao Realm.

So no one was allowed to speak ill of him!

No one!
