110: A woman destined to bring good fortune to her husband!

"One month from now in the Shanhai Secret Realm, the Young Lord will hunt a King-rank Demon Beast to display the might of the Marquis of Jubei!"

"The Young Lord is focused on his cultivation and naturally has no time for anything else!"

"Commander Liu, please refrain from coming here if there's no business!"

Liu Ruyan's expression was full of disappointment.

Ever since she failed to explain herself to Chen Xian last time...

She felt that the distance between her and Chen Xian was growing further and further apart.

"Then when he returns, please let me know immediately!"

As if to explain herself...

Liu Ruyan continued, "There's really nothing between Han Kun and me; I only see him as a younger brother!"

Hearing this, Yang Han only gave a cold sneer.

"The Young Lord said that how you view him has nothing to do with him. Now that the engagement is dissolved and the Young Lord is the Marquis of Jubei, Commander Liu, please conduct yourself with dignity!"

Hearing this, Liu Ruyan's face darkened.

She left the place in dejection.

"Driving her away would have been enough; why hurt her feelings like that?"

Zhao Hu's voice came from behind.

Yang Han said bluntly, "She once treated the Young Lord like worn-out shoes. Should I still be polite to her?"

"Enough nonsense. Get inside and cultivate!"

During this time, they must also become stronger!

Ten days in a row!

Chen Xian moved through dozens of different locations within the Sword Tomb.

Each location was the optimal spot chosen based on intelligence.

During this time, he focused single-mindedly on sensing Sword Qi and comprehending Sword Intent.

His cultivation level grew rapidly as well.

Even the Moon Demon was secretly amazed seeing Chen Xian's progress.

On this day...

Chen Xian slowly opened his eyes!

"Moon Demon, how long have I been in the Sword Tomb?"

The White Cat lay lazily on the ground and let out a yawn.

"Counting today, it has been exactly fifteen days—half a month!"

Chen Xian slowly stood up.

"I haven't swung my sword once in half a month. Today, it's time to test the fruits of my labor."

He slowly drew the elephant bone sword from his waist.

The three stages of the elephant bone sword's Profound Truth appeared in his mind.

Chen Xian concentrated his mind and breath, then slowly swung his sword!

Swish!

This strike was not only heavy and powerful but also fused the essence of the first two stages of the elephant bone sword!

Mountain Suppression and Trample were unleashed simultaneously!

Wherever the Sword Qi reached, the thick mist retreated completely!

In an instant...

A massive gash appeared before him, tearing straight toward the distant mountain stream.

Only after several seconds did an earth-shattering explosion sound from the distance!

Zhou Duoer raised her hand and looked out.

She said in surprise, "Young Lord, that mountain in the distance was leveled by your strike!"

Chen Xian saw it too, of course.

The first stage of the elephant bone sword, Mountain Suppression! It could only shake mountains!

The second stage, Trample! It creates a Sword Domain. Within this domain, the force of an elephant's Trample is manifested; everything within, whether man or beast, is crushed to powder!

As for the third stage of the elephant bone sword, the power of a single strike can even move mountains!

Its destructive power was evident.

"It seems the hard work of these past days hasn't been in vain!"

"Only..."

Chen Xian sighed in his heart.

Zhou Duoer was puzzled, but the Moon Demon was displeased.

"What are you still dissatisfied with, kid? With your cultivation level, for a single strike to reach such a Realm is enough to look down on all peers. Why are you still sighing here?"

Chen Xian said with a bitter smile, "But if I want to kill a King-rank Demon Beast, it's still a bit lacking!"

"A Sword Cultivator should charge forward with indomitable will. If you are so timid and fearful, how can you walk the path of the sword and become a Sword Immortal?"

"I didn't expect your words to suddenly wake me from my stupor!"

"I am already a person walking on a tightrope; why should I worry so much!"

The worries in Chen Xian's heart vanished completely.

The aura on his body suddenly changed.

Swish!

Eighth level of Qi Refining!

Chen Xian hurriedly took out some Medicinal Pills and quickly swallowed two.

To stabilize his cultivation.

[Ding! Daily Intelligence has been refreshed!]

[Daily Intelligence 1: The Emperor has issued an imperial decree to marry the Commander of Jubei City, Liu Ruyan, to Sun Xiu, the Heir of Prince Han, in one month!]

Hmm?

This was the first time in half a month he had heard intelligence from outside the Sword Tomb reported by the System.

But it didn't matter much.

Although he and Liu Ruyan had a brief past connection, they were ultimately not meant to be!

Chen Xian didn't see any problem with her being with someone else.

However, what he found bizarre was the fact that the Emperor himself had issued the decree.

As the Emperor of the Da Gan Dynasty, how could he bother with such trivial details?

At the thought of the Emperor coveting his Immaculate Sacred Body!

Chen Xian gave a cold snort.

It seemed the Emperor was still trying to provoke and test him!

Chen Xian continued reading.

[Daily Intelligence 2: Liu Ruyan is a woman with a Heaven-ordained Husband-Prospering Fate and is in harmony with the Host's Yin and Yang. By the Host's side, she can help the Master become a Dragon!]

Chen Xian was momentarily stunned.

Holy crap!

I didn't expect Liu Ruyan to have such a fate.

No wonder, no wonder his original body's father insisted on their engagement!

Even though his original self had served Liu Ruyan as subserviently as a "licking dog."

His original father, Invincible Chen, never stopped him.

It turns out he knew all along!

That Liu Ruyan had such an effect!

Chen Xian stroked his chin; he would have to reconsider this!

[Daily Intelligence 3: Liu Ruyan is the long-lost biological daughter of Liu Mantian, the Sect Master of the Heavenly Star Sect in the Central Continent.]

Hiss!

If Chen Xian was just weighing the pros and cons a moment ago...

With this additional identity...

...Chen Xian's expression instantly turned serious!

"Damn, isn't this the typical hidden 'Immortal Second Generation'!"

The Heavenly Star Sect is a thousand-year-old major sect.

It is definitely a top-tier power in the Central Continent!

If they were together in the future, wouldn't he have a significant amount of support!

No!

This little woman must be mine!

Even though she treated his original self that way before...

...and was ambiguous with her so-called "younger brother."

But the past is the past, and the present is the present.

After knowing her fate and background...

Chen Xian believed that anyone would be unable to resist such a temptation.

He swallowed several more Medicinal Pills.

He sat cross-legged on the ground.

Continuing to sense the Sword Qi!

...Inside Jubei City.

The situation now was vastly different from half a month ago!

Countless experts had appeared in the city.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the city had become incredibly eerie.

"General, the forces of seven Princes have gathered in Jubei City!"

"They run rampant in the city every day, even constantly provoking the Marquis of Jubei..."

"However, the Jubei Marquis's Residence has remained closed for over half a month!"

Chen Buyu revealed a subtle smile.

"Heh, seven Princes sending people at almost the same time—how could that be possible without instructions from the one behind the scenes?"

"Especially since all seven of them have had past grievances with Big Brother. Fortunately, my Great Nephew is in seclusion during this time, avoiding their brunt! Otherwise, he might have been easily provoked!"

Chen Buyu looked at the crescent moon in the night sky!

It was like a curved blade.

As if it could fall at any moment to take a life!

"General, there's one more thing that has already spread throughout the city!"

"What is it?"

"The Emperor personally bestowed a marriage, betrothing Liu Ruyan to Sun Xiu, the Heir of Prince Han!"

"So what? I thought it was something important!"

But just then, a voice came from outside the tent.

"This must not happen!"
