7: The awakener of the Hongmeng Holy Body and the fiancée he has never met!

Xuan Zhenshi's eyes flashed with golden light, and a wisp of his aura immediately probed towards Xuan Tianchen.

That aura was like an invisible tentacle, quickly and precisely sensing every fluctuation of spiritual power on Xuan Tianchen's body.

In just a moment, under Xuan Zhenshi's Ninth Level Quasi-Emperor aura, Xuan Tianchen's cultivation realm was completely exposed.

"Hahaha, an Immortal Lord Realm at eighteen, truly worthy of being Big Brother's son!"

Xuan Zhenshi's hearty and unrestrained laughter immediately echoed throughout the entire hall.

He recalled that when he was Xuan Tianchen's age, he had only just entered the True Immortal realm.

Recalling his own cultivation journey and comparing it to the outstanding talent of this rising star, Xuan Zhenshi was filled with emotion.

Xuan Tianchen's world-shaking talent astonished even these Quasi-Emperor Experts.

If Xuan Tianchen had been born into another power, he might have been strangled in his cradle by the Xuan Clan, because the Xuan Clan would absolutely not allow anyone who could threaten their position to exist.

This cruel law of survival was an unspoken understanding among the major powers of the Heavens.

In fact, looking across the entire Heavens, some powerful Immortal factions viewed Xuan Tianchen in the same way.

They secretly spied on him, wary, yet helpless.

After all, Xuan Ming Immortal Emperor alone had already suppressed all the Heavens, making it impossible for others to raise their heads.

Now, the Imperial Son Xuan Tianchen's talent was even more outstanding than Xuan Ming Immortal Emperor's in his youth.

If the Xuan Clan were to produce another peerless Immortal Emperor, the other powers of the Heavens would never have a chance to rise.

This deep apprehension towards the Xuan Clan, like a shadow, hung over their hearts, impossible to dispel.

But they could only think this way; they dared not make a move.

After all, the Xuan Clan's Clan Leader and All the Elders were not to be trifled with; when they got serious, they could take lives.

All the Elders, sensing Xuan Tianchen's Immortal Lord Realm aura, also stroked their beards and smiled.

A moment later, the First Elder Xuan Zhenfeng slowly stood up and said indifferently, "Clan Leader, now that Tianchen has returned and is already eighteen, isn't it time to put that matter on the agenda?"

"The First Elder is referring to..."

"Naturally, Tianchen's major life event!"

"That little girl from the Ye Family is also just eighteen; it is indeed time to put it on the agenda."

Xuan Tianchen, hearing this, couldn't help but feel a bit confused: My major life event?

"Clan Leader, what's going on?" Xuan Tianchen couldn't help but ask.

Xuan Zhenshi, with a smile, slowly said, "Tianchen, it's like this: about a year after you left the Xuan Clan, a girl from the Immortal Ye Family, roughly your age, suddenly awakened the Primordial Sacred Body!

This Imperial Son took the liberty of arranging this marriage for you. Now that you've returned, take some time to visit the Ye Family today."

"So... This Imperial Son inexplicably has an additional fiancée?"

"Tianchen, that little girl has the Primordial Sacred Body, which can complement your Chaos Body!"

At this point, a strange look flashed in Xuan Zhenshi's eyes.

Xuan Tianchen also smiled immediately, "Clan Leader, you're acting strange!"

"Hehe, you go and see in a few days. If you really don't like her, this old man will go and annul the engagement for you. I expect the Ye Family wouldn't dare to say no!" Xuan Zhenshi's voice was filled with dominance and majesty.

And this... this was the assertiveness of an Imperial Clan and a Ninth Level Quasi-Emperor Expert.

"A fiancée, huh? This Imperial Son will go and see in a few days!" Xuan Tianchen's lips curved slightly upwards.

Xuan Tianchen had heard some rumors about the Immortal Ye Family producing a peerless genius with the Primordial Sacred Body during his travels.

He never expected this person to be his fiancée, whom he had never met!

A moment later, Xuan Tianchen continued, "Clan Leader, if there's nothing else, This Imperial Son will take his leave!"

Xuan Zhenshi heard this and immediately said, "You just arrived! Tell us properly what you've been doing these past days! Don't be so perfunctory!"

"Just enjoying the scenery and killing people, nothing interesting!" Xuan Tianchen left this remark and turned to leave the hall.

But then, he stopped, waved his hand, "Oh, right, have someone send the cultivation resources to my residence later!"

"In that case, go back and rest well, and remember not to forget what we just discussed!"

"Understood!"

...After Xuan Tianchen had completely left, Xuan Zhenshi and All the Elders suddenly shed their amiable demeanor, their faces now solemn and unapproachable, not to be desecrated.

Their grave expressions seemed to condense the surrounding immortal qi, making people dare not approach easily.

These old antiques, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, all had infamous reputations in the Heavens.

Having endured countless trials of wind, rain, and bloodshed, their names had long become terrifying existences.

Every wrinkle hid a story of vicissitude, and every gaze revealed a deep killing intent.

Only in front of Xuan Tianchen, the Xuan Clan Imperial Son, would they become as amiable as elders.

After all... Xuan Tianchen was their boss Xuan Ming's only son!

That special affection was not only due to the bond of blood but also an endless loyalty to Xuan Ming.

Their current achievements were all thanks to the help of their boss, Xuan Ming.

In countless past moments of life and death, fighting side by side in adversity, Xuan Ming's figure was always their guide and reliance.

Now that Xuan Ming was not present, they naturally had to take good care of Xuan Tianchen.

Even if it meant clearing all obstacles for Xuan Tianchen and opposing the entire Heavens and all the realms, they would not bat an eyelid.

"Big Brother, Tianchen is very outstanding. You can rest assured..." Xuan Zhenshi's eyes flickered, pondering secretly.

After Xuan Tianchen returned to his residence, he immersed himself in cultivation.

In a blink of an eye, a week quietly passed... "Completely refining the power of the Great Dao of the Archaic Continent has finally allowed my Demonic Path cultivation to reach the First Level of the Immortal King Realm!"

Xuan Tianchen slowly opened his blood-red eyes, and two blood-red cold glints slowly emanated from the corners of his eyes.

The power of the Immortal Path was merely Xuan Tianchen's overt strength; his true trump card was the power of the Demonic Path.

"It's also time to visit the Immortal Ye Family!" As he spoke, Xuan Tianchen's lips curved slightly upwards.

After he had left the Xuan Clan's deliberation hall earlier, he had activated the Grand Cycle Observation Technique to investigate.

He discovered that the place where the Immortal Ye Family resided was filled with surging luck, like a wandering dragon, an anomaly that only a Child of Destiny would cause.

And this genius daughter of the Ye Family had unexpectedly awakened the Primordial Sacred Body, a supreme physique no weaker than the Chaos Body, with her cultivation speed progressing by leaps and bounds.

Such a coincidence made Xuan Tianchen speculate that his fiancée might be that Child of Destiny!

"Once I arrive at the Ye Family, all will be revealed!"

...In the Vast Sea Immortal Domain, the Immortal Ye Family, with its ten-thousand-year heritage and widespread renown, stood tall.

Inside a solemn and magnificent pavilion, a maiden, like a celestial fairy, was immersed in cultivation.

Her name was Ye Linger, and her brows revealed a natural beauty that needed no makeup.

Her eyes were as clear as autumn water, seemingly capable of penetrating all the world's troubles.

Her captivating beauty was unforgettable at first sight.

Just as she was fully focused on her cultivation, a knock on the door broke the tranquility.

Subsequently, a dignified yet loving voice came from outside the door: "Ling'er, it's your father!"

Hearing this voice, Ye Linger instantly awoke from her cultivation.

Her gentle eyes slowly opened, looking towards the door, and she softly said, "Father, please come in!"

As the door was gently pushed open, a middle-aged man walked in.

He wore a green robe, surrounded by a powerful realm aura, clearly a Quasi-Emperor Expert!

His face was firm, and his brows revealed an intimidating aura even without anger.

He was the current Clan Leader of the Ye Family—Ye Nantian, and also Ye Linger's biological father.

Ye Nantian entered the pavilion, his gaze falling upon Ye Linger, his eyes flashing with deep satisfaction.

"Ling'er, your cultivation has advanced quite a bit again!"

"That's all thanks to Father's dedicated nurturing!" Ye Linger replied.

"The Xuan Clan sent word that their Imperial Son will be arriving at our Ye Family soon. Your father came to inform you so you can be mentally prepared."

"Is it that Xuan Tianchen, the one who, by his own power, suppressed the entire younger generation of the Heavens, making them unable to raise their heads?"

"Precisely. This child's talent is world-shaking, perfectly suited to be your Dao companion."

"Understood, Father!"

"Ling'er, do you resent your father for taking the liberty to decide your major life event for you?" At this point, a hint of reluctance appeared on Ye Nantian's face.

Ye Linger heard this and immediately smiled, "How could I, Father? What you did was for Ling'er's own good!"

"I'm very relieved that you think that way. Now, continue to cultivate diligently!"

After speaking, Ye Nantian left the pavilion.

"Farewell, Father!" Ye Linger watched her father's departing figure, a hint of bitterness appearing on her face.
