64: Have you ever seen the Demon Lord?

Watching Liu Ruyan leave in a hurry,

Chen Buyu shook his head and sighed. Without even asking around, he knew that this commander of Jubei City was likely worried about her so-called brother!

Sigh!

"Big brother, oh big brother, you were wise your whole life, yet you picked such a daughter-in-law. Truly unwise."

"But as your sworn brother, I won't let the Chen family line end!"

He talked to himself for a long time.

Finally, he waved his hand.

A lieutenant walked over silently.

"General!"

"Pick some women from the Divine Strategy Army and the Da Gan Dynasty for me. They must be worthy of my Great Nephew, and they must be gentle and virtuous!"

"Yes!"

The lieutenant left in a hurry.

Chen Buyu said with a smile, "My dear nephew, you've caused trouble for so long; it's time you carried on the family line!"

Meanwhile,

Chen Xian sneezed several times in succession at Marquis Jubeis Residence!

He pinched his itchy nose. What was going on?

Could someone be thinking about him?

Beside him, Yang Han said respectfully, "Young Master, just as you expected, a total of three groups of people came to Jubei Marquiss Residence last night. They left in a hurry after seeing that the residence was empty!"

"According to your instructions, we only monitored them and did not take action!"

Chen Xian nodded.

"Mm, what about that girl Zhou Duoer?"

Speaking of Zhou Duoer,

Yang Han's eyes lit up.

"Young Master, your luck is truly beyond words. Zhou Duoer's talent for fire-attribute Cultivation Techniques is almost unmatched. At least, none of us have ever seen such a strong talent!"

The others also nodded one after another.

Zhou Duoer's talent was simply what fire-attribute cultivators dreamed of.

However, at this moment, Chen Xian remained calm.

"Now do you know why I didn't let you teach her directly?"

When Yang Han and the others heard this,

they suddenly realized!

"Young Master, so you mean you knew all along..."

"Yes, Zhou Duoer is exceptionally gifted. Not just you, but even I—and indeed no one in Jubei City—is qualified to teach her. Before this, all we can do is work hard to build a solid foundation for her!"

"In the future, we'll talk about it if we can find a Master qualified to teach her!"

Upon hearing Chen Xian's words, these Golden Core Stage experts like Yang Han weren't angry at all.

Regarding Zhou Duoer's talent, although they were itching to try their hand,

they understood that she was a piece of unpolished jade.

If they were the ones to carve her, although she would become a talent, she wouldn't be able to reach her maximum potential.

At this moment,

the group's admiration for Chen Xian reached its peak!

Because they hadn't expected that every single move Chen Xian made contained such deep meaning!

Even Zhou Duoer, whom they had mistakenly thought was just a randomly recruited maid, was a rare Genius of the future!

Was there anything This Young Master didn't know?

Chen Xian then looked at Night Fiend.

"Night Fiend, you've been Demon Generals for so long, have you ever seen the Demon Lord?"

Night Fiend and the others shook their heads.

"Although we are Demon Generals, and only one rank below the Demon Lord, this rank is like a heavenly chasm!"

"Almost all Demon Lords are Nascent Soul Stage experts, and in the entire North Continent, there only seem to be a handful of them!"

"Then how do you communicate with the Demon Lord?"

Zhao Hu asked curiously.

"The Demon Lord will take the initiative to contact us, but we are unable to see his true face!"

Night Fiend said without reservation.

Chen Xian smiled slightly.

"Do you want to see the Demon Lord?"

"Huh?"

The group was stunned by this question!

Zhao Hu was the first to react.

"Young Master, are you saying that the Demon Lord took advantage of the chaos last night to quietly sneak into Jubei City?"

Chen Xian snapped his fingers!

"Let's go, we're going to meet him. After all this time trying to catch me, he can't possibly not even show his face once, right?"

Seeing Chen Xian taking the lead to walk out,

the group hurried to stop him.

"Young Master, if the Demon Lord has really come to Jubei City, then you are his prey. If you meet him, wouldn't that be..."

"Don't worry, I haven't reached the point where I'm tired of living yet."

"Inside Jubei City, that fellow definitely won't dare to make a move!"

After Chen Xian finished speaking, he had already stepped outside.

Zhao Hu, Night Fiend, and the others looked at each other.

Although they were very confused by their Master's actions, they still followed him.

And so,

Chen Xian's group paraded through the streets!

They headed straight for Duobao Pavilion.

As for how Chen Xian knew this Demon Lord was here,

it was naturally because he had seen the information provided by the System.

[Daily Intel 1: Demon Lord Scholar has sneaked into Jubei City and is preparing to auction a luminous pearl at the Duobao Pavilion auction!]

Since he was here,

he naturally had to go meet him!

At the entrance of Duobao Pavilion,

Chen Xian brought Zhao Hu, Yang Han, Zhou Duoer, and Da Huang.

They swaggered inside.

Especially just as they entered, before the two welcoming waiters could even speak,

Chen Xian casually tossed something.

A bag of Spirit Stones was thrown into their hands.

"Here! This Young Master's reward for you! Hurry up and prepare a top-quality private booth for me, I want to participate in this auction!"

"Thank you, Young Master Chen!"

"Thank you, Young Master Chen!"

"This humble one will lead you there right away."

The two waiters both showed excited expressions.

No one would turn their back on Spirit Stones.

Especially since this so-called infatuated Young Master was, in their eyes, no different from an idiot.

Therefore, they served him even more carefully, each one being incredibly fawning.

Hoping that Chen Xian would drop more gold!

Watching this scene, Zhou Duoer was suddenly a bit confused.

After these few days of understanding,

she had gradually learned that Chen Xian was not the unlearned and incompetent second generation ancestor the outside world claimed he was.

Instead, he was a man of courage and strategy.

But why, upon arriving at this Duobao Pavilion, did he change his face again?

Chen Xian seemed to see what was on Zhou Duoer's mind.

After entering the private booth and screening out the crowd,

he then said seriously to Zhou Duoer, "I know what you're thinking. Today I will teach you a saying."

"If you have an enemy, you must let the enemy despise you with all their might. You should despise the enemy strategically, but value the enemy tactically!"

"Only in this way can you remain invincible!"

Zhou Duoer nodded thoughtfully.

Zhao Hu and Yang Han also finally understood why Chen Xian wanted the two of them to follow him.

It was simply to create the illusion that he was a second generation ancestor.

If he had brought Night Fiend, the Demon Lord would likely have noticed in an instant.

For a moment, the looks both of them gave Chen Xian were filled with surprise and admiration.

As of now,

the Duobao Pavilion auction was still ongoing!

"The next treasure to be auctioned is a luminous pearl!"

"Although this luminous pearl looks ordinary, it contains a world within it; it is a space-type treasure. Those interested can bid. The starting price is ten thousand Spirit Stones!"

luminous pearl!

Space-type!

The combination of these two terms didn't give the crowd any surprise.

Because in the Cultivation World, such things were countless.

Even storage rings were such space-type treasures.

So they didn't think it was rare.

Instead, they felt it was somewhat mediocre.

There were even very few people bidding.

"I bid fifty thousand!"
