Chapter 68

“Rather than using it myself, it’s better to let Yan Ruyu have it. Although Yan Ruyu’s physique has changed, it ultimately falls a bit short. It will be extremely difficult for her to reach higher levels in the future. But with the Yin-Yang Saint Body, it would be different.”

“Everything becomes possible. As one of the strongest physiques, the power of the Yin-Yang Hply Body is unimaginable. If not for this, the Extreme Path Demon Sect wouldn’t go to such lengths to obtain the Yin-Yang Holy Body.”

“Extreme Path Demon Sect, who would have thought that the sect master of the Extreme Path Demon Sect is actually Du Guyun’s father! Without my involvement, in the future, the father and son would have become the leaders of the so-called righteous and demonic paths! It’s quite laughable when you think about it.”

Jiang Chen sneered inwardly. The leader of the demonic path having a son who ends up becoming the leader of the Primordial Holy Land, controlling various forces, especially on the human side with him as the leader, is indeed laughable.

The most laughable part is Du Guyun could become the leader, also with the help of Du Guxiong.

And this is with Du Guyun’s consent. If there were no connections between them, or if Du Guyun considered Du Guxiong an enemy, it would be one thing. But their cooperation and close relationship make it even more ridiculous.

‘Extreme Path Demon Sect’s sect master is actually Du Guyun’s father! Is this the enemy that Ye Qingcheng has been desperately searching for?’ Yan Ruyu’s eyes widened in shock.

She had always wondered who Du Guyun’s father was and didn’t expect him to have such a significant background and this layer of identity.

‘Since the Holy Son knows, why not capture Du Guyun?’ Yan Ruyu was very curious.

Based on their long-term interaction, Yan Ruyu knew that Jiang Chen deeply hated Du Guyun, wishing nothing more than to kill him. However, strangely, Jiang Chen has never made a move against Du Guyun.

‘I guess the Holy Son has his own plans! Otherwise, with the Holy Son’s personality, he would have acted long ago! There’s no need to keep him around all the time!’ Yan Ruyu pondered over their days of interaction.

Jiang Chen is never someone who hesitates or is indecisive; rather, he is very decisive. If he hasn’t made a move, there must be a reason for it.

However, Yan Ruyu doesn’t know that Jiang Chen’s reason for not acting is because Du Guyun still has a significant role to play. He still needs Du Guyun to continue causing chaos.

The plot hasn’t fully unfolded yet, so how could he kill Du Guyun? Without the Son of Destiny, the plot loses its effect, and where would the rewards come from?

Currently, the daily rewards for causing chaos aren’t much, and accumulated over a long time, the rewards are quite ordinary. To gain significant rewards, he can only rely on the plot’s chaos.

Approximately several hours later, everyone returned.

“Is that Old Demon Wuji reincarnated from a mudfish? He’s so good at running away?” Before everyone returned, Qin Ruhu’s complaining voice followed.

Jiang Chen wasn’t too surprised by this. If Old Demon Wuji were so easy to kill, he would have been killed long ago. Even now, with Snow Moon Immortal and the Great Qin Emperor joining forces, killing him wouldn’t be that simple.

Old monsters like him have numerous aces up their sleeves, making them difficult to kill without some special methods.

“This All Pleasure Sect’s sect master, Yan Ling, has been captured though. Holy Son, how do you want to deal with her?” Qin Ruhu threw Yan Ling in front of Jiang Chen. Yan Ling was now in a sorry state, her cultivation sealed, completely devoid of any power.

“Kill her. She’s of no use anymore. Considering the Extreme Path Demon Sect’s way of doing things, they must have placed a ban on her, making it impossible to extract any information from her. Even revealing anything about the Extreme Path Demon Sect would trigger the ban, killing her instantly.”

“And with that Old Demon Wuji escaping, the Extreme Path Demon Sect will definitely know, and Yan Ling will naturally be excluded. There’s no way you can get anything out of her!” Jiang Chen stated indifferently. Yan Ling was utterly useless now.

If you say there’s a use, it’s not entirely true. Yan Ling’s cultivation is quite good, being a Saint King, she would be considered top combat power among the major forces.

However, Yan Ling is like a ticking time bomb, and it’s unrealistic to expect her to be part of the combat force.

A sword intent surged out unexpectedly, directly slaying Yan Ling. Her soul was utterly destroyed, leaving no chance for survival in this world. Seeing Yan Ling’s fall, Yan Ruyu felt extremely conflicted, with a sense of vindication but also a hint of sadness.

“Snow Moon Immortal’s sword intent is getting more formidable!” Qin Ru Huo shrank his neck, whispering. He had experienced Snow Moon Immortal’s sword intent before, nearly costing him his life.

Over the years, Snow Moon Immortal’s sword intent had grown even stronger. Qin Ruhu even felt that Snow Moon Immortal might have reached the limit of a certain level. If she could break through this limitation, she would step into an unimaginably powerful state.

“It’s a pity that Wuji Old Demon got away, but at least the rest are perfectly resolved. We also helped out. I hope the Holy Son can take care of my daughter for a while. Although I don’t know why she insists on following you, I hope the Saint Son can do me this favor and return her afterward!” The Emperor of Great Qin said to Jiang Chen.

Besides dealing with the Extreme Dao Demon Sect, there was another reason for their intervention – the issue with Qin Yao.

In Ancestral Dragon City, Qin Yao had always wanted to follow Jiang Chen, but he had outright refused her.

Seeing Jiang Chen’s continued refusal, Qin Yao went to plead with the Emperor of Great Qin. Since Jiang Chen needed the Great Qin Dynasty’s assistance, a deal was struck: they would help, but Jiang Chen had to take Qin Yao with him.

Jiang Chen felt somewhat helpless, not really wanting to take Qin Yao with him. But now that the deal was made and the Great Qin Dynasty had put forth significant effort, he had no choice but to agree.

“You can rest assured, I will protect Qin Yao,” Jiang Chen said softly.

“With your word, I am relieved, and Snow Moon Immortal is there too!” The Emperor of Great Qin smiled and with a wave of his hand, Qin Yao was sent flying towards Jiang Chen, biting his arm fiercely as if she was a roaring dragon.

“You jerk, how dare you dislike me, I’ll bite you to death!” Qin Yao fumed.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen glanced at the Emperor of Great Qin and Qin Ruhu. Both twitched their mouths and looked away, pretending not to see, as it was too embarrassing.

“I’ll leave my daughter in your care!”

“And my niece as well!” they said, before quickly disappearing as if ridding themselves of a plague, faster than anyone else.

Jiang Chen, pinching Qin Yao’s cheek into a round shape, said annoyedly, “Even your father wants to send you away like a plague, and you still claim you’re not a disaster! Absolutely a troublesome child!”

Qin Yao became even angrier: “You’re the troublesome child, your whole family are troublesome children!”
