Chapter 79 The Younger Sister of the Chosen One

Chu Xuan wore a plain silk dress and no makeup.

Her pretty face was exceptionally clear and beautiful, her eyes bright, her delicate nose slightly upturned, and her vermillion lips were naturally red without any tint.

Although the style of the plain silk dress was conservative, it could not hide her graceful figure.

Her pair of white jade peaks were not as grand as a great wave, but they were already beginning to take shape, just the right size for a palm's grasp.

“Two Senior Brothers, please be kind. I beg you to make an exception.”

Chu Xuan's voice carried a plea, and combined with her pitiful expression, it made one instinctively feel pity for her.

The two guards looked at each other, showing troubled expressions.

Normally, if they received a small benefit, they could turn a blind eye and let someone in.

But this time was different.

The guard on the left shook his head, his tone filled with helplessness:

“Junior Sister, it's not that we aren't being reasonable. Your brother publicly insulted the Elder Referee at the Outer Sect competition. The Elder personally ordered that he receive 'special care'.”

“If we let you in and the Elder finds out, we won't be able to bear the consequences.”

The guard on the right chimed in, “You should just go back quickly. Seven days will pass in a flash; he won't die.”

Chu Tian was someone the Elder had personally named for 'special care'.

Even if the two guards had the desire, they didn't have the courage to let Chu Xuan in.

Seeing that her pleading was fruitless, Chu Xuan lowered her hands and was about to leave dejectedly.

Just then, a sound of footsteps approached.

Chu Xuan looked up.

The man in front wore a white robe with gold-embroidered cloud patterns and a purple-gold crown. His face was handsome, and every movement he made vaguely carried the presence of a Dragon and Elephant.

A woman followed half a step behind him, wearing a pink Liuxian dress. Her figure was enchanting, and her eyes were full of charm.

Recognizing the newcomers, the two guards quickly stepped forward, cupped their fists, and bowed deeply.

“Greetings, Lord Saint!”

“Saint?” Chu Xuan was startled and quickly followed the guards in bowing.

Lin Xiao stopped, raised his right hand, and made a lifting motion with his palm facing upward.

A gentle surge of spiritual energy lifted the three of them up.

“Fellow Disciples, there is no need for such formalities.” Lin Xiao's voice was clear and bright, without a hint of arrogance. “I am just passing through today and decided to do a quick inspection. You've all worked hard.”

The two guards were overwhelmed by the favor, their expressions extremely excited.

The guard on the left said repeatedly, “It's not hard at all! Being able to serve the Holy Land is a blessing earned through several lifetimes!”

Lin Xiao nodded slightly, his peripheral vision finally falling on Chu Xuan.

Since killing Ye Bufan, the System had upgraded again, adding a Life Script function.

At this moment, a blue light screen that only he could see was floating above Chu Xuan's head.

[Name: Chu Xuan]

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Middle Stage]

[Identity: Outer Sect Disciple of the Primordial Holy Land, younger sister of the Son of Luck Chu Tian]

[Life Script: Innate Sword Body. This Physique can become stronger by devouring spirit swords. It contains an invisible sword within the body, allowing one to become a sword themselves and sever the ages. In the later stages, to help Chu Tian, she willingly erases her Divine Sense to become a sword spirit and accompany Chu Tian in his battles across the heavens.]

[Favorability/Submission: 30]

Lin Xiao's heart stirred slightly.

He didn't lack swords, but he could consider taking her as a sword scabbard.

Unlike other villains, Lin Xiao had always paid great attention to his image.

To some extent, he didn't even count as a villain in the traditional sense.

Because others transmigrated into the bodies of villains and inherited their playboy and overbearing images.

Therefore, at the beginning, the Daughters of Luck usually had negative favorability toward such villains.

But Lin Xiao was different.

In private, he could play as pervertedly as he wanted.

But when out in public, he had to maintain the image of a jade-like Young Master, peerless in the world.

He wanted to use practical actions to prove to everyone.

That a villain could also be gentle, elegant, and full of poise.

After all, when one is away from home, one's identity is whatever they give themselves.

The past is the past, now I'm a pervert, Jie Jie Jie!

Yu Lingyue tilted her head slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in her beautiful eyes.

“Didn't we come here specifically to find Chu Tian? How did it become 'just passing by'?”

Of course, she only dared to grumble this in her heart.

After all, the Master must have his reasons for doing this!

Lin Xiao nodded slightly and then prepared to leave.

It really seemed as if he were just passing through on an inspection.

Seeing Lin Xiao about to leave, Chu Xuan gripped the hem of her dress tightly, a look of hesitation on her face.

Finally, she braced herself and stepped forward, saying:

“Saint, please wait!”

“Outer Sect Disciple Chu Xuan has a request!”

Lin Xiao stopped, his gaze calm, as he gave Yu Lingyue a subtle look.

Yu Lingyue understood immediately. She bent her waist slightly and gave a bow.

“Saint, I suddenly remembered I have some matters to attend to today, so I won't accompany you on your inspection of the Holy Land.”

Lin Xiao nodded.

Once Yu Lingyue left, Lin Xiao waved his hand, and a sound-insulating Restriction formed instantly.

He could now create such simple Restrictions with ease.

“Speak, what is it you seek from this Saint?”

Lin Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, his voice clear and warm, not blaming her for the intrusion.

This gentle attitude allowed Chu Xuan's racing heart to settle slightly.

Chu Xuan bit her red lip with her silvery teeth, her eyes welling up with a layer of mist as she said with some difficulty:

“Lord Saint, my brother Chu Tian was young and impetuous. He accidentally offended the Elder during the Outer Sect competition and is now being held in the Dungeon.”

As she said this, Chu Xuan herself felt a bit guilty.

But to save him, she could only grit her teeth and continue.

“I... I would like to ask the Saint to forgive him this once, considering it's his first offense. He is currently injured, and the Dungeon is extremely cold. If he stays there any longer, he will lose his life.”

“Of course, I won't let the Lord Saint help for nothing. I have saved up six hundred and seventy-five Low-Grade Spirit Stones.”

“I... I can give them all to the Saint...”

Before Lin Xiao could speak, a familiar mechanical voice sounded again:

[Ding! Detected that the host has triggered a random event. Please make one of the following choices:]

[Choice 1: Super Peerless Warm Man; Such a trivial matter is not worth mentioning, I will definitely help with this. Here is one million Spirit Stones for you to take. Reward: Chu Xuan Favorability +20, Authentic Little Local Dog x1, from now on everything you do must come after it.]

[Choice 2: A Villain living a good life; As long as you help me with my cultivation, I will help you this time, Jie Jie Jie, you wouldn't want your brother to die in the Dungeon, would you? Reward: 10,000 villain points. Cost: Chu Xuan Favorability -30]
