CHAPTER 411: CHAPTER 328: THE IDENTITY OF MARQUIS NING_3

"This is Gu Pengyou, from the Gu Family!"

Chen Xuan introduced to Qin Ying.

"Hmm!"

The two women nodded at each other.

Both had somewhat reserved personalities and weren’t familiar with each other, so they didn’t have much to say.

"Let’s eat!"

Chen Xuan said with a smile.

...

After dinner, Gu Pengyou and Xian Si left not long after.

Ning Xin went to Ning Immortal’s room.

While Chen Xuan took the remaining few girls for a stroll.

On the street.

As the September Festival approached, a festive atmosphere was brewing.

Both street vendors and various shops had started selling all kinds of festive items.

Lan Meng’Er and Luan Ying walked ahead, both enjoying themselves the most.

While Chen Xuan and Qin Ying walked side by side behind them.

"That Immortal is from the Ning Family, right?"

Qin Ying suddenly spoke up.

"Hmm!"

Chen Xuan nodded, not intending to hide anything from her.

Moreover, Ning Xin was overly enthusiastic today, which was unusual.

"Also, that Xian Si, there’s something odd about the two of them."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan’s expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal, looking at her with some surprise, "You noticed all that?"

After all, she was only at the Late-Stage Profound Realm; noticing something was off with Ning Immortal was one thing, but Xian Si had completely concealed any trace of Demon Race aura.

Yet she still noticed.

"As expected of the Imperial Family!"

He couldn’t help but marvel inwardly.

"No need to be so astonished!"

Qin Ying’s lips curved up slightly, looking quite delighted.

Then she revealed another secret that left Chen Xuan utterly stunned.

"Marquis Ning is also half-human half-demon, and his father was one of the top Demon Race!"

"What?"

Chen Xuan could hardly believe it.

The primary marquis of Great Yu was actually half-human half-demon?

This was simply unbelievable.

But—

On second thought, it started to make sense, otherwise how could he have gotten involved with a fox spirit.

After all, considering the relationship between the Human Race and the Demon Race, no ordinary person would marry into the Demon Race.

Wait a second!

One of the top Demon Race.

Chen Xuan suddenly sensed something was off.

So he immediately asked, "Did Marquis Ning eventually purge the Demon Race bloodline completely?"

"Of course, otherwise Father wouldn’t have bestowed him the title of marquis!"

Qin Ying looked at him as if he were an idiot.

Did he really think Emperor Yu would entrust someone who was half-human half-demon?

If the Ritual Department got wind of this, they’d cause an uproar.

If so...

"How did he purge the Demon Race bloodline from his body?"

Chen Xuan immediately asked.

"The Ten Thousand Beasts Technique, of course?"

Qin Ying looked at him like he was a fool, then continued, "It was precisely because of the Demon Race bloodline in him that allowed him to rapidly cultivate the Ten Thousand Beasts Technique to a high level."

"Damn it! What the hell!"

Chen Xuan cursed.

In the end, it turned out to be this simple; couldn’t Ning Immortal just switch to another cultivation technique?

"What are you doing?"

Qin Ying frowned; she very much disliked people being so unruly in front of her.

Only Chen Xuan could get away with it, otherwise, his head would’ve already rolled.

"Ah... I wasn’t cursing at you!"

Chen Xuan hurriedly explained.

"I know, otherwise you’d be dead!"

Qin Ying glanced at him sideways.

"Hehe!"

Chen Xuan laughed awkwardly, knowing that if he cursed her Majesties, Emperor Yu wouldn’t be pleased.

He wouldn’t dare do that.

Then he further explained to Qin Ying.

"I see!"

She slightly nodded, then asked back, "Then why didn’t you ask me in the first place, instead of going to the Ancient King?"

As she spoke, a trace of anger flashed in her eyes.

"I didn’t want to trouble you."

"You’re such a... hmph!"

The noble training of the Imperial Family kept her from blurting out a curse, only letting out a cold snort instead.

Seeing that she was indeed angry, Chen Xuan had no choice but to lower his face, "Next time there’s anything, I’ll come to you first, okay?"

"Sigh!"

He sighed inwardly.

Was it really worth getting upset over this? Like a little kid.

"Hmph, don’t bother me!"

Qin Ying glared at him, and then ran toward Lan Meng’Er and the others ahead.

"Damn it!"

Chen Xuan rolled his eyes exaggeratedly.

Wasn’t he being considerate?

Who’d have thought she would react this way!

Imperial family women... damn it, still women!

So petty.

He grumbled inwardly but still hurriedly followed after them.

...

The next day!

In the room, there were only Chen Xuan, Ning Xin, and Ning Immortal.

"Are you ready?"

Chen Xuan looked at Ning Immortal.

Last night, upon returning, he shared with the two women the method of purification of the Demon Race bloodline through cultivating the Ten Thousand Beasts Technique.

He also gave her the jade slip for the Ten Thousand Beasts Technique.

"Ready!"

Ning Immortal nodded, very happy that finally there was a way to thoroughly solve the nuisance of her part-Demon Race bloodline.

As long as it was completely purged.

She could then live like a normal person.

"Good! Let’s begin, I’ll guard you. Xin’Er, you may leave!"

"Alright!"

Ning Xin nodded, then looked at Ning Immortal, "Don’t worry, husband is very capable; I also switched cultivation techniques when I was at an Immortal Grade."

"Hmm!"

Ning Immortal nodded.

After she left, Chen Xuan released several strands of spiritual power, setting up a concealment array in an instant.

Then the smile on his face gradually faded and gave way to a more serious expression.

Transitioning cultivation techniques requires one to either completely undo the previous cultivation technique or retain it.

But having two techniques within oneself would naturally slow the cultivation speed substantially.

So Ning Immortal chose the former.

However—

"To completely undo the previous cultivation, my only concern is that your Demon Race bloodline might react abnormally, so no matter what happens, focus solely on cultivating and leave everything else to me!"

Chen Xuan advised her.

Since her situation differed from Ning Xin’s back then.
