CHAPTER 194: CHAPTER 190: ARE YOU FEMALE?

[Qi Luck: Great Zhou (10 (Weakening 5)), Great Xia (3)]

After eating those four Dragon Spirit Pills, the Qi Luck of Great Xia was clearly 2.

Now it’s actually increased by a point.

Could it be because he exterminated those demon beasts? Saved Liangzhou, so it increased by a point!

But what about the demon beasts exterminated in Jingzhou before?

"Stop thinking about it, kill all those demon beasts in the next state and I’ll know."

Eager to know the reason, he immediately rushed to the next state, Yongzhou.

This time it took seven days, but he finally exterminated the last high-level demon beast.

"Let’s see!"

The next moment he opened the system.

[Qi Luck: Great Zhou (10 (Weakening 5)), Great Xia (4)]

"It’s really increased!"

It seems to be just as he speculated.

But—

"What a loss!"

Chen Xuan suddenly wailed, he didn’t gain any Qi Luck for exterminating Jingzhou, because he hadn’t eaten the Dragon Spirit Pill and hadn’t activated Great Xia’s Qi Luck at that time.

...

In a flash, Chen Xuan had left Youlan Mansion for almost twenty days.

Of course, he still returned every evening.

He wouldn’t give up skill points just for exterminating demon beasts; that’s his foundation and naturally he couldn’t bear to leave a few women alone.

At this moment, he was in the territory of the last state, Xuzhou.

"That should be the last high-level demon beast, damn it can run!"

He cursed angrily, and the next moment his figure disappeared.

This damn demon beast was a white fox, not only with Breaking Realm First Grade strength but also with the incredibly high ability to conceal its aura, truly giving him a headache.

If it weren’t for his Telepathy, he wouldn’t have been able to find even a single hair of this fox, let alone kill it.

After chasing for hundreds of kilometers, he lost it again.

"Damn, so cunning! No wonder it’s like a fox!"

Cursing aside, he spread out his immense spiritual power and Telepathy, scanning the space around him.

At the same time, dozens of kilometers away, a white fox, half a meter tall, hid its unique demon beast aura and crouched behind a massive rock.

"Damn humans, I’ll eat you sooner or later!"

At this moment, it astonishingly spoke human language fluently, completely unlike the blood python in Youlan Mansion.

Suddenly,

The white fox’s fur bristled all over!

"I’ve been discovered!"

It all happened because it spoke earlier, leaking a trace of aura, damn it!

Daring not to linger, it immediately turned into a white light trying to escape!

But it was too late!

"Still trying to escape, you’ve tormented me for so long, if you run again, I’ll eat shit!"

The Eight Directions of the Dark Realm activated!

In an instant, that white light was enveloped within!

"Get down!"

Chen Xuan shouted, the next moment, the white fox’s speed dropped dramatically, revealing itself, the immense pressure pinned her to the ground.

"Run, go ahead and run!"

Looking down at the immobile white fox, he asked arrogantly.

"I didn’t kill any humans, why are you killing me?"

Suddenly, a clear female voice rang out, Chen Xuan was stunned.

"You’re female?"

"You’re the female, your whole family is female, I’m a girl!" Despite being pinned down, the white fox raised her head, glaring at him with light blue fox eyes.

"Oh, quite feisty!"

Chen Xuan became interested, she has tormented him for so many days, now that he caught her, he wasn’t in a hurry to kill her.

Moreover, this fox was the most intelligent demon beast he had ever encountered.

Let’s see if he can extract some information from her.

"You’re just a demon beast, not a human, so you’re female, got it? Besides, even if you haven’t killed any humans, haven’t those innocent people killed demon beasts? Yet they’re still eaten by you demon beasts!"

"Don’t be so naive!"

"Since you’re a demon beast, be prepared to be killed by humans!"

"Oh, and you might be eaten too! Your fur isn’t bad, it would make good inner armor!"

....

Chen Xuan provoked her sentence by sentence until finally, the white fox couldn’t bear it.

"Insolent!"

"You damned blood meals, just wait, we’re coming, you’re all about to be eaten by us, just you wait!"

She shouted angrily.

And at this moment!

The white fox was enveloped in a dazzling cyan glow.

"Hissss—"

Danger! Chen Xuan instinctively stepped backward, disappearing from where he stood!

When he reappeared, he was already dozens of miles away.

Looking up towards the direction of the white fox, he saw a black rift in the sky, and the cyan glow enveloped and protected her as she flew into the rift.

"Telepathy!"

With a loud shout, this time his eyes emitted a brilliant blue light.

In an instant, he saw through the rift.

"That is.....!"

Behind the rift, there was a colossal cyan fox, a thousand meters long with eight tails, each tail over a hundred meters long, dancing in the endless darkness.

"Insolent!"

It seemed to sense Chen Xuan’s gaze!

The cyan fox shouted angrily!

In an instant, Chen Xuan felt a sharp pain in his eyes, forcing him to close them.

He slowly opened them only after the feeling subsided.

But the rift had disappeared!

"So strong!"

The massive cyan fox from earlier, with just a glance, made his eyes feel like needles were piercing them, although not injured, it forcibly interrupted his Telepathy.

"Blood meals!"

"Demon Race!"

Chen Xuan couldn’t help but mutter, his brow furrowed.

This was the first time he had heard of these two.

With the improvement of his skills, he thought he had a sufficient understanding of this Martial Arts World, but now it seemed there were still too many things he didn’t know.

Or rather—

He raised his eyes to look in the direction where the crack disappeared; is this world supposed to be like this?

Everything has been deliberately concealed by someone.

But who exactly?

One doubt after another surged in his mind.

...

"Hoo—"

"It’s finally over!"

Chen Xuan’s figure appeared in the City Lord’s Mansion, and the reason he didn’t return to Chen Mansion was, of course, to find Xuan Er for answers.

The last time they talked about that ancient ruins, it was as if he had deliberately concealed some things.

Originally, he hadn’t planned to ask, but since he knew some things, he still had to get to the bottom of it.

And moreover, from what that White Fox said, the demon race might be coming.

If that’s the case, then it’s a world-ending disaster.

Spreading his Spiritual Power, he searched for Xuan Er’s location.

"Hmm!"

Ye Yilan is about to break through to the First Grade.

In an instant, he disappeared from the spot and appeared next to Xuan Er in the next moment.

Xuan Er only glanced at him and then continued to focus on Ye Yilan.

"The situation isn’t looking good!"

At this moment, Ye Yilan’s aura was somewhat chaotic. If this continued, it would likely end in failure.

No wonder Xuan Er’s expression was so serious.

"Telepathy!"

With a low shout in his mind, he wanted to see what problem Ye Yilan was encountering.

"Such intense Spiritual Power!"

Indeed, he was an established master at the peak of the Second Grade; although he hadn’t broken through to become First Grade yet, this Spiritual Power was already close to First Grade.

But—

It seemed to be somewhat out of control.

Right now, the circulation of his internal energy was not smooth, which caused his aura to be so chaotic.

"Should I give it a try?"

"Hmm, be careful!"

Xuan Er warned; he had seen Ye Yilan’s problem but wasn’t confident enough to act.

Only to see Chen Xuan extend a finger, and a thread of Spiritual Power appeared at his fingertip.

Then, he gently pointed in Ye Yilan’s direction, and the Spiritual Power entered through the top of his head.

At this moment, Xuan Er was staring at him intently, even though his breakthrough to First Grade had never been this nerve-wracking.

With the help of ’Telepathy’!

Chen Xuan’s thread of Spiritual Power was smoothing Ye Yilan’s turbulent internal energy; with his assistance, Ye Yilan’s aura quickly stabilized significantly.

About the time it takes to make a cup of tea.

Chen Xuan withdrew that thread of Spiritual Power and let out a long breath.

Although the time was short, it felt like an arduous battle; so tired!

The key was his Spiritual Power was too strong; if he wasn’t careful, Ye Yilan was too weak and couldn’t withstand it, then it would be over!

"Rest assured, it’s okay now!"

Seeing Xuan Er looking anxiously at him, Chen Xuan quickly comforted him.

"Good!"

Nodding heavily, the heart that was hanging in suspense was finally relieved.

An hour later,

A majestic aura erupted from Ye Yilan; at this moment, he formally entered the First Grade realm.

Not only that, this surging aura!

"Master, so powerful! It’s above one layer of purity!"

"Hmm!"

Xuan Er nodded slightly, also feeling truly surprised.

This felt not less than when he was back then.

"It might be that he was suppressed at the peak of the Second Grade for too long, causing such an effect. Besides, Yilan’s talent was not weak; it’s just due to the cultivation technique... it turned out to be a blessing in disguise!"

As his words fell.

"Hahaha..."

Ye Yilan laughed recklessly, "Finally, I’ve reached First Grade!"

Xuan Er breaking through the First Grade; he envied!

To know that Chen Xuan was First Grade; he was shocked and jealous!

For so many years, though seemingly resigned on the surface, he even suspected it was his lack of talent that made it impossible to cultivate to First Grade.

But deep inside, a genius, who wouldn’t long for First Grade?

But who would have thought, it was ultimately due to the cultivation technique.

Scenes of Gu Xiu teaching him Martial Dao cultivation when young flashed in his mind.

"Hmph!"

This account, he wouldn’t just let go.

"Congratulations, finally reaching First Grade; it’s somewhat of a fulfillment." Xuan Er looked at his brother, feeling genuinely happy for him.

Back when he broke through the First Grade, those envious eyes indicated just how much he longed to reach First Grade.

But such matters were beyond his control.

Therefore, even after reaching First Grade, it was seldom mentioned.

"Hahaha... Old Two, I’m now First Grade too, what do you say? Have time for some sparring!" Breaking through to First Grade boosted his confidence immensely, and now he dared to arrogantly challenge a genius like Xuan Er for sparring.

"If you want a beating, just say it! Oh, I forgot to tell you, I’m already at Three Layers of Purity! I’ll give you a chance; speak properly!"

Seriously, where did he get that courage?

Seems like I’ll have to find an opportunity to temper his arrogance; getting beaten by one’s own is better than being beaten by others, isn’t it?

"Uhh—"

Ye Yilan looked at him with fear; Three Layers of Purity! Truly worthy of the Divine Movement Sect’s once-in-a-century genius.

"No way, no way! Old Two is still Old Two!"

Feeling the need to kill this daring thought, because Old Two really would beat him— without mercy that kind.

"Thanks, kid!"

Coming beside Chen Xuan, he gave him a big hug; without him, there’d be no hope of reaching First Grade in this lifetime.
