Chapter 732: Seeing Through

Ouyang Huan looked at Zhang Ruochen for a moment and then said, “Till we meet next month at the Kunlun Heir’s banquet. I will then personally confront you to retrieve what you have taken from me. That will include Dragon Three’s divine dragon bone and the life of Bird Nine.”

Although his voice sounded calm and monotonous, it had an invisible oppressive power about it.

“Many thanks for your Holy Qi Pill.” Zhang Ruochen responded nonchalantly.

Although their conversation sounded calm, it exuded animosity and hostility. They would have started fighting if Saint Lady had not stopped them.

“Go.”

Ouyang Huan put his arms behind him, turned, and then headed out of Shentai City.

Captain Rat, Centipede Eight and the severely wounded Snake Two and Dragon Three followed suit. They rode on the pterosaur and flew out of the ancient city.

Thunderous cheers broke out in Shentai City almost immediately.

“Lin Yue!”

“Elder Brother Lin Yue!”

Lin Yue had avenged the Eastern Region cultivation circle by consecutively defeating the two masters of the demonic sect. He was truly remarkable to have defeated even the archaean survivor, White Snake with Saint Heart.

Today, Lin Yue was not only a Genius of the Tao of the sword in the Yin and Yang Sect, but he had also become one of the generals of the younger generation in the Eastern Region.

In the center of a broad street in Shentai City stood Xue Wuye. With his well-defined brows, sparkly eyes, snow white complexion, and sharp features, he could be the most handsome man in the world.

As he looked toward the Coliseum, he smiled and said, “Ouyang Huan has never been this greatly disadvantaged even in the Central Region. The Yin and Yang Sect is indeed the leader of all sects. There is even such a formidable character aside from Gai Tianjiao.”

A beautiful swordsman maidservant, who was standing to the left of Xue Wuye holding a jade flute, said with a gentle voice, “Young City Governor, do you think Lin Yue could match Ouyang Huan?”

Xue Wuyue curled his lips and said, “Ouyang Huan managed to become the Demon Son of the demonic sect for a reason. The power and influence of the Moon Worship Demonic Sect has spread throughout the world. It definitely has other undiscovered talents and many other geniuses. There will be at least three other masters like Lin Yue aside from Captain Rat and Snake Two.”

He continued, “Captain Rat and Snake Two are two of the best superiors in Beasts Valley, which is one of the demonic sect’s nine palaces. There are also some formidable characters in the eight other palaces.”

Xue Wuye was actually saying that Lin Yue, with his current cultivation, was no match for Ouyang Huan. However, Lin Yue had a lot of room for improvement, given that he had only reached the Seventh Change in the Fish-dragon Realm. It was hard to imagine how capable he would be when he reached the Eighth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm or the Ninth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm.

“Lin Yue seems to have a close relationship with Miss Yanchen. Would you like me to give him a warning?” the swordsman maidservant had sharp eyes.

“It is not necessary.”

Xue Wuye said with a laugh, “To pursue a beautiful woman doesn’t mean to possess her. It is more challenging to pursue the same beautiful woman together with someone else. Hehe, I wonder who would be more charming?”

Then, Xue Wuye gracefully ascended the carriage pulled by a Blood-gold Crow. Along with eight other swordsman maidservants, the carriage left Shentai City.

Naturally, Zhang Ruochen caused quite a stir by defeating Snake Two and Dragon Three. A number of Great Saints and disciples of powerful families began to invite him in order to befriend them.

Zhang Ruochen, however, rejected their offers. He simply accompanied Huang Yanchen in returning to the mansion where Sword Saint Xuanji resided.

Huang Yanchen was silent and nonchalant.

However, her lips moved from time to time as if she was about to say something as she glanced at Zhang Ruchen.

Zhang Ruochen crossed his arms on his chest, keeping a safe distance from her. He asked with a smile, “Miss Yanchen, do you believe my strength now?”

“I was indeed surprised. You are a Genius of the Tao of the sword given your capabilities.”

Huang Yanchen fixed her eyes forward. Her two blue eyes betrayed a look of puzzlement as she finally said, “I am really curious. If the Yin and Yang Sect is one of the four Holy Lands for the Tao of the sword within Kunlun’s Field, and that is so well-known throughout the world, there must be countless sword technique Mysteria in the Sword Pavilion. There is also the prestige of the Moon-burier Sword Saint. With such a wealth of resources, why do you still want to learn the Tao of the sword from Sword Saint Xuanji?”

As expected, even she had become suspicious.

Zhang Ruochen kept a straight face, nodded his head and stopped in his tracks. He stared at her and said, “There is no limit in the practice of the Tao of the sword. As a sword practitioner, I have put together what I’ve gathered from the heads of different families, learning the Tao of the sword from every predecessor and deceased sage, and getting the whole picture by combining all the knowledge I gathered from them. Only by so doing could I become a sword saint.

“I have a lot to learn from Predecessor Sword Saint Xuan Ji. As a junior, it is only right for me to learn with a sincere attitude.”

Huang Yanchen didn’t buy Zhang Ruochen’s explanation, but she knew that Sword Saint Xuanji had never met Lin Yue before they came to the Yin and Yang Sect.

It was unlikely that a sword saint would agree to meet with a young sword practitioner of the Fish-Dragon Realm. It was even more unlikely that he would impart knowledge on the Tao of the sword without setting conditions.

Furthermore, when Xue Wuye, a Tao of the sword successor, requested to meet Sword Saint Xuanji, Sword Saint Xuanji did not arrange for Huang Yanchen to meet Xue Wuye in private. Why did he do that for Lin Yue?

Huang Yanchen did not think that Lin Yue was more outstanding than Xue Wuye in any way.

Huang Yanchen had the feeling that her Master was hiding something from her. This Lin Yue might be someone with an extraordinary background.

Since Lin Yue refused to tell the truth, Huang Yanchen could not be bothered to continue her conversation with him. She snorted and went ahead to enter the mansion.

Zhang Ruochen stood outside the gates and stared at Huang Yanchen’s back. He shook his head and sighed.

“Why don’t you just tell her the truth? Senior sister apprentice Yanchen is pathetic to have a fiance like you,” Ao Xinyan quietly came up to Zhang Ruochen from behind wearing a subtle smile on her pretty face.

Zhang Ruochen had long known that Ao Xinyan was following them. He sniffed the fragrance in the air, turned around and calmly said to her, “There are some things you would never understand.”

Ao Xinyan had merely been testing Lin Yue. She was not sure if he really was Zhang Ruochen.

However, Zhang Ruochen did not seem to want to keep her in the dark. He admitted his identity readily, stunning Ao Xinyan.

He really was Zhang Ruochen.

Ao Xinyan’s chest heaved faster, causing her full breasts to quiver. She was apparently exhilarated and her eyes narrowed into a crescent shape.

Ao Xinyan walked forward, intending to verify Zhang Ruochen’s identity. “Group Leader…”

Zhang Ruochen gestured for her to be quiet, saying, “This is not a good place to talk about this, let’s go inside first.”

He was now a well-known character throughout the world. There could be many people watching him from anywhere. His identity would be exposed if he was careless. It was wise to be more cautious.

Zhang Ruochen took Ao Xinyan’s hand and pulled her into the mansion.

Sword Saint Xuanji had already prepared a seclusion stonehouse in the center of the mansion for Zhang Ruochen. It was covered with layers of arrays. It would be difficult even for a saint to look into the stonehouse through void space.

Obviously, Sword Saint Xuanji had taken Zhang Ruochen’s situation into consideration. He did not want any saint to spy on him and expose his identity.

Once they entered the seclusion stonehouse, Zhang Ruochen let go of Ao Xinyan’s hand. Using Holy Qi, he transformed back to his original form and then said, “Your level of cultivation has improved so fast that you have reached the Seventh Change in the Fish-dragon Realm. This is beyond my expectation. Err…. What’s happening to you?”

Zhang Ruochen lit the Buddhist oil lamp in the seclusion stonehouse. The moment the house was lit up, Zhang Ruochen saw the expression on Ao Xinyan’s face. She was blushing tremendously and looking very demure.

“I only took her hand to lead her into the mansion and now she’s so shy. This princess of the Divine Dragon half-human clan is rather sensitive. I better be more cautious from now on,” thought Zhang Ruochen.

The light from the Buddhist oil lamp was mild and gentle.

The burning Buddhist oil gave off a scent. The moment Zhang Ruochen inhaled it, he was invigorated. As his mind cleared, all distracting thoughts were driven out.

Ao Xinyan was relieved to see Zhang Ruochen’s real form. “When Blackie, Orange Star Emissary and I returned from Battlefield of Primitive World, I returned once to the Divine Dragon Half-human Clan. There I refined a drop of Dragon King’s Blood. That is why the level of my cultivation has elevated by leaps and bounds.”

The Divine Dragon Half-human Clan was a clan from far back in time. It was comparable to the various Dragon tribes in terms of its history.

The so-called “Dragon King’s Blood” was the dragon blood passed down from the emperor of the dragon tribe. It was a precious treasure belonging to the Divine Dragon Half-human Clan. The Dragon King’s Blood contained divine power that was many times more formidable than the Xuanwu Sacred Blood refined by Zhang Ruochen.

Refining a drop of Dragon King’s Blood had endless benefits. Not only could it help elevate the level of cultivation, but it could also train the physical body, link up to the Holy Road and enable a Monk to perceive the “Divine” realm more easily.

Ao Xinyan, who possessed a half-dragon body, would benefit greatly from refining Dragon King’s Blood.

“Zhang Ruochen said, “You truly belong to the Divine Dragon Half-human Clan. Everyone will be envious of such a profound foundation.”

“Although the Dragon King’s Blood is so great, one needs to have reached the Fish-Dragon Realm to withstand its power. I could have died abruptly from absorbing the Dragon King’s Blood if I were just at the Heaven Realm.”

Ao Xinyan continued speaking. “Actually, refining the Dragon King’s Blood was my preparation for refining the Divine Dragon’s Blood. Only by making use of Dragon King’s Blood to strengthen my body would I be able to withstand the baptism of the Divine Dragon’s Blood.”

Surprised, Zhang Ruochen asked, “Does the Divine Dragon Half-human Clan really possess the Divine Dragon’s Blood?”

Divine Dragon’s Blood was, in fact, divine blood.

At the end of the Medieval Ancient Times, all the gods of Kunlun’s Field vanished. If there were remnants of divine blood it was because it was preserved and passed down from a hundred thousand years ago to the present.

In his previous lifetime, Zhang Ruochen, as the Crown Prince of the Sacred Central Empire, had heard that some powerful Aristocratic Family in the Middle Age had an extremely small amount of divine blood in their possession.

However, he was very young at that time and did not have the opportunity to come into contact with any information regarding the secret divine blood. He had only heard hearsay and was not certain if the divine blood truly existed.

Ao Xinyan said, “I only know that the Divine Dragon Half-human Clan does possess some Divine Dragon’s Blood. However, very little is left of it after one hundred thousand years.

“I only need to refine one drop of Divine Dragon’s Blood while in the Fish-Dragon Realm. Then I can condense the Divine Dragon mark inside my body. This would be as good as experiencing the Chord of the Gods.

“If I get to refine two drops of Divine Dragon’s Blood, I could condense them to form two Divine Dragon marks, which would be as good as experiencing two Chords of the Gods.”

“However, it would be extremely difficult for a monk in the Fish-Dragon Realm to refine the Divine Dragon’s Blood.”
