96: The Road of Inheritance

"If you don't want the position of Saint, then you cannot accept the Legacy."

"I am very sorry."

Chu Han's face dimmed as she spoke.

She had thought that since they were both from the same hometown, and the young man was quite handsome with a significant background...

...accepting the Legacy together would be such a beautiful thing.

However, she had been rejected by Qin Feng again.

Chu Han was depressed; was it because she wasn't pretty enough?

Or were her legs not long enough?

Or perhaps the Legacy wasn't attractive enough?

Then why did he come to the Tianyan Divine Sect in the first place?

"Didn't you say having a good Physique was enough?"

"Saint is just a title; it's useless to take it."

Qin Feng shrugged his shoulders and said.

"A title?"

"Young Master Qin, I'm afraid you have misunderstood!"

"The Saint and the Saintess are a pair!"

"In the future... in the future, we can...!"

Chu Han couldn't go on; it was too embarrassing to speak of.

At this moment, Qin Feng had an epiphany.

A look of sudden realization dawned on his face, and he was even a little excited.

His eyes unconsciously drifted toward Chu Han's long legs.

"So, the Saint and the Saintess are a pair. You should have said so earlier!"

"Ahem, actually, becoming the Saint doesn't seem impossible."

"Of course, it's mainly for the sake of the Legacy."

Qin Feng's gaze dodged slightly as he spoke, feigning a cough and using his hand to cover that hint of awkwardness.

Finally, he added with righteous conviction that it was for the Legacy.

"Pfft...!"

Chu Han couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At the same time, she felt a bit better in her heart.

This guy simply didn't know the role of the Saint.

At least, the second rejection wasn't because of her appearance or figure.

"Then you are willing to be the Saint?"

Chu Han took a deep breath, her face flushing red as she asked.

"Yes!"

Qin Feng also felt a bit embarrassed and nodded.

"Young Master Qin, then let us go and accept the Legacy!"

"The sooner we... accept the Legacy, the sooner we can increase our strength."

Chu Han slowly stood up, smoothing out her wrinkled skirt as she spoke.

"Wait a moment!"

Qin Feng stood up and looked at Dragon Baby, who was eating a blood coagulation fruit.

"Let me settle this fellow first."

As his voice fell, Qin Feng turned into an afterimage and arrived in front of Dragon Baby.

"Dragon Baby, I'm going to accept the Legacy."

"These are the divine fruits I left for you and that little thing, Zhu Yan."

"Don't think about keeping them all for yourself!"

After saying that, Qin Feng threw a storage ring to Dragon Baby.

"Don't worry, Master, I promise I won't keep them all for myself."

Dragon Baby replied with an innocent face.

Immediately, she sent her Divine Sense into the storage ring.

A pile of blood coagulation fruits, longevity fruits, and Azure Lotus Seeds—there were over two thousand of them.

Dragon Baby was stunned.

How could her master, who always cried poor, be so generous this time?

Just what kind of Legacy was it that was so important?

Before she could figure it out, her master had already walked out of the palace with that girl.

"Whatever! I'll eat first to show my respect."

Crunch...!

Dragon Baby lay on the dragon throne, legs crossed, took out a divine fruit, and began to munch on it comfortably.

As for giving half to Zhu Yan...

That would depend on her mood!

If he called her 'Big Sister' a few times and she was in a good mood, she might reward him with a few.

If he still wanted to rebel, then forget it... Qin Feng followed Chu Han to the Tianyan Divine Sect's Inheritance Land.

This place was the back mountain of the Sect.

It was protected by a powerful and ancient Formation; even a Quasi-Emperor powerhouse could not destroy the Formation.

To enter the Formation...

...one could only use the imperial decree left behind by the Snow Emperor.

There were two imperial decrees in total; one was with Chu Han, and the other was with Wu Lang.

However, it was now in Qin Feng's hand.

Once Qin Feng became the Tianyan Divine Sect's Saint, Wu Lang handed the imperial decree over to him.

Swish...!

The two imperial decrees landed on the Formation.

The Formation rippled, revealing a grand jade path.

With a flash of his body, Qin Feng stepped directly into the Formation.

The terrain here was flat, the grass was lush and green, and the Spiritual Qi was like mist, making it very suitable for Cultivation.

The most conspicuous thing was a statue standing proudly.

The statue was a hundred zhang high, reaching straight into the clouds.

An ancient and weathered aura spread out from the statue.

The statue depicted a girl, appearing to be around twenty years old.

She wore a snow-white robe, and her static face carried a faint smile.

Her eyes were bright and spirited.

It was as if she were a living person.

"Is this the Snow Emperor?"

Qin Feng activated his Double Pupils, scanned the statue, and murmured.

"Yes, she is the Great Emperor of the Tianyan Divine Sect."

"This is only a Legacy statue; the real Great Emperor disappeared during the Ancient Era."

Chu Han walked up with lotus steps and said.

By now, the Formation was completely closed, and outsiders could not set foot inside.

"Miss Chu Han, then let's begin!"

Qin Feng loosened up his muscles and said impatiently.

"Alright!"

Chu Han's cheeks turned slightly red as she replied softly.

Then, she walked to Qin Feng's side and took his left hand with her right hand.

As their hands interlocked, Chu Han's body trembled slightly.

"Young Master Qin, to accept the Legacy, we need to work together to approach the Snow Emperor's statue."

"Therefore, it is better to hold hands."

Chu Han lowered her head, feeling the warmth from Qin Feng's palm as she explained.

Fortunately, she explained quickly enough.

Otherwise, Qin Feng would have misunderstood.

"So that's how it is!"

"Then let's go!"

Qin Feng nodded and said.

He held Chu Han's hand; it was slightly cool yet very smooth.

Side by side, the two of them stepped forward simultaneously toward the Snow Emperor's statue.

At first, both of them were quite fast, and their steps were consistent.

But as they walked, a wild wind began to howl, blowing mercilessly against their faces.

Whoosh, whoosh...!

The wild wind also carried a hint of coldness.

The short skirt Chu Han was wearing could not withstand the buffeting wind at all.

After a few gusts, it was blown upward.

At this time, Qin Feng couldn't help but steal a glance from the corner of his eye.

Even though they were from the same hometown, in this situation, who would be foolish enough not to look?

Chu Han hurriedly reached out her left hand to press it back down.

At the same time, a blush appeared on her delicate cheeks.

She had noticed Qin Feng's sidelong glance just now.

"I didn't look on purpose."

Qin Feng felt the hand he was holding tremble slightly and explained.

It would have been better not to explain; with the explanation, Chu Han's cheeks turned even redder.

"I... I know."

Chu Han replied haltingly.

Then, her left hand continued to hold down her short skirt as they slowly advanced.

What seemed like a very short distance felt like an eternity to Qin Feng and Chu Han, making it difficult to reach the Snow Emperor's statue.

Thump...!

With the next step, the wild wind became even more fierce, like sharp blades cutting against their cheeks.

Screech, screech...!

A wind blade swept across Qin Feng's shoulder, making a piercing sound.

"As expected of a Great Emperor's Legacy; fortunately, my Physical Body is strong enough."

Qin Feng grinned and said.

In fact, it wasn't his Physical Body, but the Silkworm Treasure Garment.

Chu Han did not have the Silkworm Treasure Garment; as the wind blades blew toward her, she could only release Spiritual Qi to resist them.

However, she was still a step too slow, and a wind blade cut a hole in her robe on the right side.

With a 'rip' sound, her right shoulder was exposed.
