139: Shen Xirou

“What are you talking about? Back then, it was me…

“No, it’s not Senior’s fault. If anyone is to blame, it’s this world where the strong prey on the weak! The Chen family’s direct lineage possesses the Flaw Eye, so it’s natural for them to be envied and coveted, leading to their demise. It’s just a pity for my daughter…”

“Alright, let bygones be bygones. Right now, healing your internal injuries is the most crucial thing!”

“Mm…”

The Blue Star Secret Realm, Bi Xiao Fairy’s Cultivation place.

At this moment, Chen Xuan was consulting Bi Xiao on how to get along with snakes, how to subdue snake Yao, and how to Cultivate (treat) snake Yao.

After all, she once turned the Golden Dragon Scissors into two snakes to deal with Ji Fa, so her knowledge in this area should be very comprehensive.

After his inquiry, he learned that this Empress Dowager She was very extraordinary.

She had no relation to the current emperor, yet when she merely expressed a desire to be the Empress Dowager, the emperor immediately agreed! Furthermore, every member of the imperial family greatly feared her.

Such a person either possesses extremely high strength or has a very profound background. But Chen Xuan leaned more towards the former; after all, she was a snake Yao that had transformed. For a Yao Race member to hold such a position in the human world, it could only be attributed to her own formidable strength.

Therefore, to be safe, he had to make some preparations, just like now.

Although Bi Xiao Fairy could not speak at this moment and only had a trace of consciousness, she was still very experienced in how to subdue snake Yao.

She merely raised her jade hand slightly, and an illusion of a giant snake was summoned. With another wave of her hand, the giant snake charged directly at Chen Xuan!

Seeing this, Chen Xuan did not panic. He quickly adjusted his breathing, then rapidly retreated, creating distance from the giant snake.

Then he suppressed his Cultivation, making it equal to Bi Xiao Fairy’s Cultivation.

He knew very well that Bi Xiao Fairy only wanted to demonstrate how to deal with snake Yao, so he was not in a hurry and carefully observed the giant snake’s attack methods.

The giant snake lunged fiercely at Chen Xuan, trying to tightly coil around him, but Chen Xuan’s speed was extremely fast, and the giant snake couldn't even get close to him by a hair’s breadth.

Under the giant snake’s attacks, Chen Xuan continuously dodged. While dodging, he also observed the giant snake’s attack trajectory.

After a period of observation, Chen Xuan finally figured out the giant snake’s attack pattern. He quickly retreated, then quickly rushed forward.

Just as he was about to be coiled by the giant snake, he suddenly leaped, flipping over to avoid the giant snake’s attack.

At the same time, the long sword in Chen Xuan’s hand thrust out fiercely, directly piercing into the giant snake’s body, after which the giant snake illusion disappeared.

Seeing Chen Xuan successfully subdue the giant snake, a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on Bi Xiao Fairy’s face, as if she felt it was a very humiliating thing to be outmaneuvered by Chen Xuan.

So, she summoned another giant python, intending to regain her dignity.

Seeing this, Chen Xuan quickly stopped her: “Fairy, wait!”

Bi Xiao tilted her head.

“The one you summoned is too weak. Do you have a stronger one, preferably a transformed snake Yao that can use skills?”

Bi Xiao heard this, shook her head blankly, then pointed a finger, and the giant python once again attacked Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan: “…”

After easily slaying the giant python again, Chen Xuan waved his hand directly at Bi Xiao: “Thank you for your guidance, Fairy. Chen Xuan has benefited greatly, though it’s utterly useless!”

With that, he left without looking back, leaving the still-unresponsive Bi Xiao stunned in place.

After a long while, she resumed absorbing Spiritual Qi to restore her Cultivation.

Outside the heavens, Bi Xiao, who was rushing towards this world, inexplicably felt an boundless anger from the depths of her Soul, though she didn’t know why.

“Is something wrong with my main body? Could it be that someone is trying to harm me…?!”

Filled with anger, Bi Xiao instantly accelerated her speed. She was determined to make that person pay the price!

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan returned to accompany his wives and daughters for a while before leaving the Blue Star Secret Realm and returning to the Tai Hospital.

…

Zhao Tianming was in a very good mood.

Not only did he obtain the millennium frost grass, which could restore Soul Power, but he also conveniently dealt with his formidable enemy, Chen Xuan. Perhaps he could even acquire his special Cultivation method! Most importantly, Chen Wenwen knew nothing at this moment, and as soon as he returned…

Hehehe!

Soon, Zhao Tianming, with an excited heart, rushed back to the inn at the fastest speed of his life.

Standing at the door, Zhao Tianming first tidied his appearance, then tried hard to put on a sad expression. However, he was truly too “sad,” so sad that he couldn’t close his mouth.

Zhao Tianming punched himself a few times, but it was still useless, so he could only retreat to his room and let Revered Master Qian Muli refine the Spirit Medicine and recover first.

The next morning, looking at the still-motionless jade pendant, Zhao Tianming’s expression immediately fell.

It seemed the medicinal power was insufficient to awaken Revered Master.

Little did he know, Qian Muli had already fully awakened. After the replenishment from the millennium frost grass, her Soul Power could now materialize!

However, Qian Muli was utterly disappointed by Zhao Tianming’s behavior and didn't want to face him.

Upon learning that Qian Muli had not awakened and he had lost a major weapon, Zhao Tianming’s mood instantly became dejected.

However, it was a good thing Wenwen was still there; now he could appear more sorrowful. So, he once again walked to Chen Wenwen’s door and knocked…

On Chen Xuan’s side, he was ordered to go to the Empress Dowager’s sleeping quarters again to treat her.

But as soon as he entered, he saw a beautiful woman who was both unfamiliar and somewhat familiar.

She was tall and slender, with skin like snow, smooth and delicate, like the finest jade, exuding a faint fragrance that was refreshing.

Her eyes were as clear as autumn water, seemingly hiding endless stories, making people involuntarily captivated.

Her demeanor was even more noble and elegant, making one want to approach yet unwilling to defile her.

Chen Xuan couldn't help but be drawn to the beauty of this beautiful woman, and for a moment, he was lost in thought. But as he looked, he felt that this woman was somewhat familiar, yet he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

The beautiful woman saw Chen Xuan’s expression, and a hint of shyness appeared on her face, as if she were a newlywed maiden.

This was the first time in so many years that she had met someone other than She Jingxi; she was very socially anxious.

“Empress Dowager, who is this?” Chen Xuan recovered his senses and asked with some doubt.

“Oh, this is my sister, and also my personal maid. Her name is Shen Xirou.” She Jingxi smiled slightly and introduced her to Chen Xuan.

“So it’s Young Miss Xirou, a pleasure to meet you!” Chen Xuan cupped his hands towards Shen Xirou.

“Not at all, Imperial Physician Chen, you are too kind.” Shen Xirou returned the bow gently, her voice soft and pleasant.
