Daily Intelligence: Start by Obtaining the Sword Saint's Legacy

15: It’s irrelevant!”It’s not that it’s impossible, but I prefer to settle payments in cash!”

Empty promises certainly wouldn’t work!

Zi Yun stomped her foot.

She took out a mirror.

”This is the heaven concealing mirror. Any treasure in the world will reveal its true form when reflected in it. Furthermore, it can store all things in heaven and earth; even living creatures can survive inside. It is much more useful than a storage ring.”

”It is an Earth Rank Magic Treasure. It’s worth at least a million. Can I use it to hire you to accompany me inside?”

Chen Xian looked at the mirror, drooling uncontrollably.

Magic Treasures are divided into Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow Ranks!

Yellow Rank Magic Treasures, like this beast bone sword, are basically the most fundamental weapons.

They are only slightly stronger than average weapons.

However, it’s different above the Profound Rank; almost every one of them is priceless.

Last time he rummaged through Zi Yun’s storage ring, he thought this was just an ordinary mirror. He hadn’t expected it to be the heaven concealing mirror!

”Fine, this belongs to me. I can accompany you inside, but I can’t guarantee that we’ll both be safe! After all, I’m only at the Qi Refining Second Layer!”

Zi Yun snorted at Chen Xian’s explanation.

”If you’re at the Qi Refining Second Layer, then this young lady is just an ordinary person!”

What kind of Qi Refining Second Layer finds it as easy to challenge those at higher levels as eating or drinking?

”You just need to accompany me until I find Brother Wentian.”

”Ye Wentian of the Ye Family?”

”Yes!”

”Wait, why are you looking for him?”

”Brother Wentian saved my life. I cannot abandon him and escape on my own!”

Chen Xian: ”...”

Seriously, is fate really that strong?

Ye Wentian clearly abandoned her and ran away during the chaos earlier.

Yet Zi Yun was still foolishly looking for him.

This woman might be beautiful, but her brain really isn’t up to much!

But for the sake of the heaven concealing mirror, Chen Xian decisively agreed.

After all, even if he couldn’t use this thing himself, he could sell it on the black market.

Thinking of this, Chen Xian gave his firm consent.

The two of them walked cautiously toward the interior.

However, after walking for a while, the thick fog did not dissipate.

Instead, it grew thicker and thicker, until several figures vaguely appeared ahead.

”Who is it?”

”Commander of Jubei City of the Da Gan Dynasty, Liu Ruyan!”

”Fairy Zi Yun of the Yaochi Immortal Palace in the Southern Continent!”

After the two sides heard each other’s names,

they temporarily put away their weapons.

However, when Chen Xian heard the name Liu Ruyan, he was completely dumbfounded.

Wait, why did this woman come here?

Promoted to Commander of Jubei City, not bad!

Although he wanted to change his Face, he thought about how he and Liu Ruyan no longer had any connection, so what was there to fear!

And so,

the moment the two sides met, Liu Ruyan froze for a second when she saw Chen Xian.

”This is the Jubei City Domain. Unrelated personnel, please leave immediately!”

”I am here on orders to find Ye Wentian of the Southern Continent’s Ye Family. If you have any problems, the Yaochi Immortal Palace will give you an explanation!”

Don’t be fooled by Zi Yun’s foolish love-struck brain.

When facing Great Emperor Ruyan, her aura didn’t lose out in the slightest!

Liu Ruyan’s gaze now fell upon Chen Xian.

”Is this person also from your Yaochi Immortal Palace?”

Zi Yun instinctively said, ”He is my husband!”

But in the next second, her Face darkened.

Awkward, it just slipped out.

As for Chen Xian, he was even more bewildered. Sister, what do you mean?

I’m just accompanying you to find someone, I didn’t say I’m your man!

Liu Ruyan gave Chen Xian a meaningful look.

”Heh, I didn’t expect you to find a replacement so quickly. It really surprises me!”

Zi Yun looked back at Chen Xian curiously!

”You know her?”

”Irrelevant!”

Chen Xian answered without hesitation.

A few seconds later, Zi Yun led Chen Xian away from the area.

Liu Ruyan, however, stood in place, unmoving for a long time!

Until one of her subordinates whispered, ”commander, we should also get moving. The Imperial Court has ordered that anyone invading the North Continent without prior notice is to be arrested and prosecuted!”

Liu Ruyan’s Face was grim.

”Let’s go!”

They then vanished into the thick fog as well!

...An unknown amount of time passed, and the heavy fog still permeated the air.

”It’s the second day!”

Hearing Chen Xian say this, Zi Yun asked curiously, ”How do you know?”

”I calculated it!”

Chen Xian said mysteriously.

In truth, it was because the sound of the System refreshing had echoed in his mind.

Three pieces of intelligence appeared sequentially on the light screen before him.

[Today’s Intelligence 1 (One-Star): The Small World is gradually collapsing. Demonic Cultivators are attacking and slaughtering indiscriminately, seeking to create conflict between the North and Southern Continents. Host, please be careful!]

Holy crap!

Demonic Cultivators?

Are they playing for such high stakes?

Chen Xian had thought there were only Cultivators from the North and Southern Continents in this Small World.

All they wanted were treasures and opportunities.

It wasn’t worth losing one’s life over.

But if Demonic Cultivators were involved, the nature of the situation changed entirely.

They were the types who loved nothing more than chaos.

Should I run now?

Chen Xian continued reading.

[Today’s Intelligence 2 (One-Star): Zi Yun discovers a Treasure Trove, which is the immortal tomb of a Saint, containing two Saint-level treasures!]

*Hiss!*

Chen Xian looked at Zi Yun, who was resting nearby.

His little heart was thumping wildly!

Damn, it seems this Small World doesn’t just have that old man’s tomb!

There’s also a Saint’s Immortal Tomb.

Especially since Zi Yun can actually find treasures; it seems following this little lady was really the right move.

Thinking of this, Chen Xian felt a wave of relief.

[Today’s Intelligence 3 (One-Star): By a stroke of luck, Ye Wentian saves Liu Ruyan, and Liu Ruyan develops feelings for him!]

Seriously, man?

Are you some kind of top-tier incubus?

First, you made Zi Yun’s love-brain act up, making her turn back to find you!

And now you’ve even made that cold iceberg, Liu Ruyan, feel moved?

There’s definitely something special about this kid!

Although Chen Xian was somewhat envious, his heart remained steady.

Whether it was Liu Ruyan or Zi Yun, these were not women he could covet.

Becoming stronger honestly was the only way!

Thinking of this, he took out a beast bone sword.

Of the twelve beast bone swords, aside from the one made from the remains of the Congenital Giant Python he’d scavenged, Chen Xian had thought the rest were just ordinary Yellow Rank beast bone swords.

But from their previous performance, it seemed that wasn’t the case.

This Beast Bone Sword—Elephant—the power and sword techniques contained within it were definitely not something a Yellow Rank could match.

Right!

I can use the heaven concealing mirror!

Chen Xian slapped his thigh.

He took out the heaven concealing mirror and shone it on the beast bone sword.

[Name: Beast Bone Sword—Elephant]

[Grade: Earth Rank beast bone sword!]

[Origin: Crafted from the tusks of an Ancient Giant Elephant, incredibly hard, containing the majestic power of an Ancient Giant Elephant!]

The moment Chen Xian saw the text on the heaven concealing mirror,

he was completely stunned!

He knew this mirror was impressive, but he hadn’t known it was *this* impressive!

With just one reflection, the information of the beast bone sword had nowhere to hide!

Just then, the sound of fighting suddenly erupted from not far away!
