Outside the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace, Chen Xuan walked alone.
Suddenly, a figure riding a flying sword appeared from within the Sword Palace, landing directly in front of him.
It was a handsome young man in a green robe, with fair skin and no beard, gently waving a folding fan in his hand.
“Chen Xuan, you see your Senior Brother, yet you don’t kneel and greet?” Situ Yulong questioned arrogantly.
Chen Xuan’s expression turned cold, and he mocked, “Situ Yulong, even if you’re too poor to buy a mirror, surely you can still relieve yourself and see your reflection? Haven’t you looked at yourself lately? You’re just a 9th stage Qi Refining Realm cultivator, relying on your parents’ influence to become the Sect Master’s personal disciple, and you expect me, the Holy Son, to kneel and greet you? Even if I dared to kneel, do you dare to accept it without guilt?”
Because Chen Xuan had advanced rapidly in recent years, it triggered Situ Yulong’s intense jealousy, and every time they met, it ended in mockery and ridicule.
“You!” Situ Yulong’s face stiffened, then erupted in rage. After cultivating for over forty years, he was still stuck at the Qi Refining Realm, which was the greatest scar in his heart. Now, Chen Xuan had ruthlessly exposed it right in his face.
Qi Refining, Innate, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Unity, Soul Formation, Tribulation-Transcending, Great Ascension—these were the eight major realms recognized by cultivators, each divided into nine stages.
If not for Situ Yulong’s parents being Nascent Soul Elders of the Grand Righteous Sword Sect, with his aptitude, he would only qualify as an outer sect disciple and had no right to become the Sect Master’s personal disciple.
“Despicable!” Situ Yulong cursed furiously. He had heard about the incident at Jade Maiden Peak yesterday, so at this moment, Chen Xuan was still the sect’s Holy Son, with a status far above his own… leaving him helpless.
However, after a moment of thought, Situ Yulong grinned slyly. “Junior Brother Chen Xuan, would you dare accompany me back to Yulong Peak for a few cups of spirit wine? There is a major piece of news you might not know yet.”
He then pretended to be magnanimous and said, “Regardless of our past grudges, I, your Senior Brother, have trained in the Feathered Dragon Sword Technique in the Sword Pool of the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace all these years… all thanks to you. Let’s let bygones be bygones, shall we?”
Chen Xuan’s gaze flickered. He had no idea what tricks this guy was playing, but he nodded and agreed.
Half an hour later, the two arrived at Situ Yulong’s residence on Yulong Peak.
After the maidservants served the wine and retreated, Situ Yulong took a sip and smiled, “The first piece of news, that fool Du Meng has been placed under confinement by his Master. Otherwise, those incidents that are being spread like wildfire this morning—you would have heard them much earlier!”
“What news?” Chen Xuan’s eyes turned cold.
Situ Yulong grinned maliciously before speaking gloatingly, “It’s said that Baichuan Trading Market has been secretly selling a kind of Returning Yang Pill, which allows the user to maintain his vigor and even after losing his Pure Yang Body, can stimulate the Pure Yang Pearl… Du Meng left the sect half a month ago and reportedly bought the Returning Yang Pill at the Baichuan Trading Market!”
“Now, rumors are spreading throughout the sect that you deceived everyone by using the Returning Yang Pill… and that Senior Sister Liu Ruyan is innocent!”
“Besides, your four Senior Sisters have also come forward, saying they heard you drunkenly confess that you slept with the Little Demoness Nangong Feifei… The Sect Master is furious and has ordered the Law Enforcement Hall to investigate this matter thoroughly!” This chapter is updated first at novelping . com.
“Oh, and Liu Ruyan, in order to prove her innocence last night, attempted suicide! She was foaming at the mouth, barely breathing when she was found… her life still hangs by a thread!”
Each piece of news was like a heavy bombshell.
The flames of anger in Chen Xuan’s eyes piled up layer upon layer like dark clouds.
He clenched his teeth, his rage surging to the extreme.
Chen Xuan had expected Liu Ruyan and Ji Wushuang wouldn’t let this go easily… but he never thought they would throw so much dirt and false accusations at him at once! Even his good brother Du Meng was dragged into it!
Situ Yulong stared closely at Chen Xuan, feeling immensely satisfied. He was waiting to see Chen Xuan’s face filled with anger, helplessness, and despair.
However?
Chen Xuan suddenly laughed in extreme anger. “Good! Good! Good!” He stood up abruptly, his chest almost boiling with rage.
You people have gone too far!
“Junior Brother Chen Xuan, don’t be rash! Don’t be rash now! You’re just a useless person now; there’s nothing you can do. Why not accept reality…?”
“I heard about what happened yesterday! You were truly unwise. How could you turn against your Master and even set up some kind of bet… Aren’t you afraid of embarrassing yourself even more thoroughly?”
“The only solution now is for you to go outside Bibo Cave and kneel to beg for Senior Sister Liu Ruyan’s forgiveness! Rest assured, I, your Senior Brother, will surely assist you!” Situ Yulong spoke with a compassionate tone, as if caring deeply for Chen Xuan.
However, Chen Xuan gradually suppressed his emotions.
Right now… he couldn’t lose control.
Liu Ruyan, that despicable woman, was trying to save herself by slandering him with filth, and with Ji Wushuang and even the Sect Master’s secret assistance… let them be.
On the day of the Disciple Selection Conference, his counterattack would begin violently!
It’s just one month away. He could endure it!
“Sigh! Senior Sister Liu Ruyan is truly pitiful, having encountered the wrong man…” Situ Yulong shook his head with fake sympathy, but his eyes were filled with undisguised madness and lust.
Situ Yulong had once pursued Liu Ruyan but was repeatedly rejected. This was also one of the key reasons he and Chen Xuan became mortal enemies. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
Chen Xuan saw this and sneered disdainfully.
He grabbed a bottle of spirit wine and drank it all in one go to suppress the anger in his heart.
After emptying the bottle, Chen Xuan smashed it heavily onto the ground.
“Clatter!”
He reached out and grabbed Situ Yulong by the neck, bringing his mouth close to his ear to whisper.
“Senior Brother Yulong, I’ll tell you a little secret… The Returning Yang Pill’s effect of maintaining vigor is truly incredible! As for how beautiful Liu Ruyan is, I don’t need to describe it to you, do I? Under my conquest, she was no different from a… well, let’s just say, completely different from her usual cold and untouchable appearance!”
“Tsk tsk… that moaning… that taste… it was simply divine! For three days and nights, Liu Ruyan was under my domination, begging for more… Hehehe… too bad you’ll never experience it!”
As he spoke, he showed an intoxicated expression, savoring the memory.
“Bang!”
Situ Yulong’s mouth twitched, and the wine cup in his hand was crushed into pieces, shards scattering across the table.
He felt utterly humiliated!
“Farewell!” Chen Xuan clasped his fists, feeling delighted inside, and left leisurely.
Situ Yulong’s face turned incomparably gloomy.
For a long time.
“Ahhh!” He let out a frenzied roar, smashing the stone table in front of him into pieces!
Situ Yulong gnashed his teeth, the flames of jealousy in his eyes burning wildly!
The peerless beauty he coveted day and night… had been taken by that beast Chen Xuan and enjoyed for three days and nights?
Damn it!
Truly damn it!!!
