136: Chapter 136 Are you stupid?
"Hehehe, this is something you said yourself, Master, so you can't go back on your word later." Ye Xuan chuckled and reached down to cradle a white immortal flower on the ground.
The night was long, but it always had an end.
A beam of sunlight fell straight into the courtyard.
At the same time, a little ice-blue phoenix arrived as well, chirping in dissatisfaction, "Chirp—" It held an envelope in its beak, which was indeed a letter from Lin Qingzhu.
"Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, tomorrow is the three-year agreement set by my younger sister, Lin Qingxue. The location is at Cangjian Peak. Lin Qingxue is my sister, so I must go. Junior Martial Uncle Ye Xuan, can you come and help Lin Qingzhu? I am afraid that Third Saint Son Zhao Long might interfere..."
After reading the letter, Ye Xuan knew that what was meant to come had finally arrived, but he still smiled and patted the head of the Little Ice Phoenix.
At this moment, far away at the Zhao Family station, Third Saint Son Zhao Long saw the message on the sound transmission stone in Lin Qingxue's hand, and the corners of his mouth curled up wildly.
"Hehe, I knew that Lin Qingzhu would never abandon you, her own sister. Look, she took the bait."
"I have already told you the entire plan for this time. Lin Qingxue, just wait for your decisive battle with Yun Zhe. When the time comes, that damned Pretty Boy Ye Xuan will definitely show up."
"When that happens, we will use Ye Xuan to coerce Master Shen Xi to leave Sword Immortal Peak, and my family's ancestor will kill her. The entire Cangqiong Holy Land will be in the pocket of my Zhao Family. As for you, Lin Qingxue, as long as you serve me well, I will never shortchange you on cultivation resources!"
"By then, both you sisters will be my women, and I will ensure you two are never separated."
At this moment, a perverted expression surged onto Third Saint Son Zhao Long's face, appearing extremely evil.
"Mn, Qingxue will listen to Senior Brother Zhao."
Lin Qingxue responded, though there was a hint of uneasiness hidden beneath her beautiful eyes.
What happened to her sister didn't actually matter to her; as long as she, Lin Qingxue, grew stronger and stronger, that was all that mattered. Even if it meant sacrificing her body, she would not hesitate.
This was an obsession that had existed in her heart since she was young, and it had never dissipated to this day.
Sword God Li Chungang's dojo was on a towering immortal peak that pierced the clouds. At this moment, Yun Zhe straightened his expression. After reading the message on the sound transmission stone in his hand, he crushed it, his expression not looking too good.
"The three-year agreement—tomorrow is the day to fulfill it. Do not worry about Lin Qingxue's strength. As your master, I have observed her; she is merely an ordinary Earth Profound Realm expert, not even as strong as Long En from the last Inner Sect Competition."
Inside the spirit ring space, Mo Li mentioned it casually, wanting to help Yun Zhe, who couldn't calm his mind, to settle down.
"Mn, Mo Li, you are right. At this time, I should be calming down. That's right, I can ask Senior Brother Ye for help!"
Yun Zhe felt that Senior Brother Ye would definitely help. Thinking of this, he quickly took out the sound transmission stone and sent a message to Ye Xuan asking for support.
However, this alone might not be enough. He had to make the entire Holy Land aware of this matter. After all, Yun Zhe still remembered the scene when that snake-hearted woman, Lin Qingxue, brought Third Saint Son Zhao Long to the Yun Family to annul their engagement.
To this day, Yun Zhe could still remember clearly the helplessness and anger that had been etched onto his father's old face.
"Yun Zhe, let the engagement between us be annulled from here on out. You are just a mortal from the mundane world, while I, Lin Qingxue, am not from the same world as you. Give up; it is better for everyone. This is the compensation I am giving your Yun Family."
That day, Lin Qingxue had rebuked Yun Zhe with her nose in the air, her every word filled with intent to humiliate him.
Yun Zhe could only clench his fists tightly, letting blood flow from between his fingers. With anger burning in his heart, he could only propose the three-year agreement to Lin Qingxue in front of everyone.
If Yun Zhe won, he would no longer pursue this matter and would personally write a letter of divorce to end the engagement. But if Lin Qingxue won, Yun Zhe would have to become her slave.
This was the exact content of the humiliating three-year agreement proposed back then.
Yun Zhe never dared to forget it for a moment. His father, Yun Canghai, had paid a huge price to send him into the Cangqiong Holy Land, but because his cultivation talent back then was truly too trash, he had struggled.
If it hadn't been for being seriously injured by Zhao Erhu, which led to Yun Zhe accidentally awakening the Evil God Physique and thus finding Mo Li, he would likely still be in the Outer Sect today, unable to attend the appointment, which would have resulted in the three-year agreement becoming a joke.
One cause for one effect.
Bitterness ends and sweetness begins; perhaps that is what this refers to.
"After this matter is over, go travel outside. The Cangqiong Holy Land is only suitable for flowers in a greenhouse, and you need constant tempering to reach a higher level."
"Mn, Mo Li, I will listen to you." Yun Zhe nodded; he was determined to win this battle.
...
On Sword Immortal Peak.
"Senior Brother, I want to go to Cangjian Peak to comprehend the Sword Dao, and I want you to carry me there. You cannot refuse!"
Qingluan pouted, her hands on her waist, looking at Ye Xuan with great determination as she spoke.
"Is that so? Wait for Senior Brother for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, is that okay?" Ye Xuan replied.
"Mn!"
If she didn't keep a closer eye on him recently, she was afraid Senior Brother would really be snatched away by that bad woman, Lin Qingzhu.
Clearly, hers isn't even as big as mine, yet Senior Brother is constantly bewitched by her.
Hmph, once her Supreme Sword Immortal Body awakens, Lin Qingzhu will definitely be no match for her.
And what she needed to do now was strike while the iron was hot, seize the time to cling to Senior Brother, and not give him the opportunity to go find Lin Qingzhu.
Qingluan was indeed innocent, but she was actually not stupid.
Ye Xuan was in the courtyard, digesting the strength he had rapidly improved recently, as well as the profound arts and techniques he had learned.
Fortunately, with the "World-Shocking Comprehension" luck protecting him, whether Ye Xuan was cultivating the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal Art, the Evil God Art, or the Zixiao Imperial Scripture, it all yielded twice the result with half the effort. One must know that none of these profound arts were simple; without a vast amount of time to cultivate, it would be impossible to master them.
The recently obtained Imperial-grade profound technique—Monarch Descends, as well as the Supreme profound technique—Demon Suppressing Art; any one of these appearing in the world would be enough to make the world fight until their heads bled.
Ye Xuan practiced these advanced profound techniques he had obtained over and over again.
Especially the Demon Suppressing Art; the power of this profound technique was terrifying. It was a sword profound technique that used divine sense to execute, and when mastered, it could destroy stars with a single sword strike.
"Hoo—"
Ye Xuan stopped practicing his sword and dropped the wooden sword in his hand. Beside him, Qingluan hurriedly took a handkerchief and helped her Senior Brother wipe the sweat from his forehead.
"Let's go."
After changing into a set of white disciple robes, Ye Xuan curled the corners of his mouth and crouched down in front of Qingluan.
"Great! Senior Brother is the best." Qingluan happily draped her whole body onto Ye Xuan's back, her mouth leaning against his shoulder, exhaling hot breath.
Ye Xuan felt his ear get wet and said in disgust: "Little Moon, watch your drool. Are you stupid?"
