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

23: Let’s live together!Although he didn’t know exactly what this woman’s identity was, he could tell a few things from her temperament and aura.

For instance, this woman made Chen Xian instinctively realize that she was definitely no minor character.

In normal times, someone like her likely wouldn’t even spare him a second glance.

Yet today, she was smiling so flatteringly.

He didn’t believe for a second that her attitude had changed just because he had handed over some Spirit Stones.

Something else must have happened!

”I’m fine, really. I just wanted to ask if you need anything else?”

Speaking of which, Chen Xian almost forgot his main business.

”Do you have any spirit ginseng grass here?”

As Chen Xian spoke, his eyes were fixed intently on the woman’s face.

He wanted to see from her expression whether she knew the effects of this item.

Li Yu hesitated for a moment.

”This Spiritual Plant is rare in heaven and earth; I truly don’t have it here!”

Chen Xian’s hope flickered and dimmed slightly.

It seemed he would have to check Duobao Pavilion after all!

However, at that moment, Li Yu seemed to read Chen Xian’s mind and immediately said, ”If I don’t have it here, Duobao Pavilion definitely won’t have it either.”

”However, I can help you find it!”

Hearing this, Chen Xian abruptly stopped in his tracks.

Is that true?

Chen Xian also believed the previous statement.

Duobao Pavilion likely didn’t have it, and even if they did, the price would probably be ridiculously high.

Li Yu said with a smile, ”Naturally, it’s true.”

”How much? How long?”

”Ahem, no charge. It will arrive in three days at the latest!”

Hiss!

Arriving in three days.

Chen Xian admitted that his heart began to thud wildly.

But he hadn’t forgotten what the woman just said—if it’s not for money, then what does she want?

In fact, for most things, money is the easiest solution in this world. If money isn’t wanted, it means the other party wants something more.

Normally, Chen Xian certainly wouldn’t agree.

But the situation was different now. Within seven days, if he didn’t have the antidote, his body would explode and he would die.

He didn’t doubt this in the slightest.

”I need you to do me a favor!”

Chen Xian became even more guarded.

He sized Li Yu up from head to toe.

”You’re someone from Duobao Pavilion; if you want help, you just have to wave your hand and countless experts would come to assist you. Why would you need help from someone like me at the Qi Refining Third Layer?”

Li Yu smiled and said, ”Ahem, only you can help with this!”

”Tell me, I’m listening!”

”Be my fiancé, and I can help you get the spirit ginseng grass!”

Hearing this, Chen Xian almost fell flat on his butt.

Not this, man!

He had already come to this cultivation world.

Was he still going to play out such an old cliché plot?

Fiancé... Chen Xian instinctively said, ”What? Is it that your original fiancé doesn’t like you, or is your family forcing a marriage?”

”Is it so hard to believe that I’ve taken a liking to you?”

Chen Xian gave a couple of awkward laughs.

”That’s not funny at all. I may be narcissistic, but I’m not narcissistic to that extent.”

”Hahahaha, you certainly have self-awareness!”

Li Yu said seriously, ”As long as you agree to this condition and act out a few scenes with me, the spirit ginseng grass will be presented immediately in three days!”

Chen Xian hesitated for a moment.

Finally, he nodded.

It wasn’t that he completely trusted Li Yu.

It was that he really had no other options.

If he didn’t agree, he might just be waiting for death!

He didn’t believe for a second that Zi Yun could get people from the Yaochi Immortal Palace to save him for free.

For a great Southern Continent Sect like that, they would surely extract benefits from him, and when he had no more benefits to offer, that would be his end.

Compared to that.

He might as well agree to this woman!

Li Yu smiled and said, ”Good, it’s a deal!”

”Will you definitely give me the spirit ginseng grass in three days?”

Li Yu nodded.

She snapped her fingers.

An old man walked out noiselessly from the darkness.

”Go and fetch the spirit ginseng grass at any cost; I want to see it in three days. If I don’t see it in three days, you can commit suicide to apologize.”

Although Li Yu spoke these words gently, they carried an air of unquestionable authority.

The old man hurriedly left the place.

And hearing this, the heart that had been hanging in Chen Xian’s chest finally settled down a bit.

”Ahem, one more thing!”

”I want to ask, is there any danger in being your fiancé?”

He didn’t want to agree today only to be hunted down tomorrow.

Then what would he even need the spirit ginseng grass for? He’d only die faster.

Li Yu smiled and said, ”As long as you stay with me, it won’t be a problem!”

”As far as I know, you are currently staying in Juxian Tower, right?”

Chen Xian nodded.

He wasn’t surprised by Li Yu’s intelligence at all.

As someone from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, if she couldn’t even master this bit of intelligence, she shouldn’t bother trying to make it in the city.

”Alright then, I’ll stay with you!”

”Huh?”

Li Yu smiled and said, ”Don’t overthink it! I just don’t want to be nagged about marriage. The acting can start now, and with me around, won’t you be safer too!”

Chen Xian thought about it.

That made sense.

Especially since the intelligence said there were Demonic Cultivators lurking in the city.

If that was the case, then with this woman here, he might actually be safer.

”Fine!”

A short while later.

The two left the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion side by side.

Until they walked into Juxian Tower, Chen Xian felt a sense of unreality.

Had he just brought back a woman who was in no way inferior to Liu Ruyan and Zi Yun?

And especially, she was willing to stay in the same room as him?

Until they entered the room.

Only then did Chen Xian’s sense of unreality completely dissipate.

Yes, she had indeed entered the room with him.

Although he knew this woman was also using him, as a man, who wouldn’t be willing to be used by a beautiful woman?

At this moment, the one even more bewildered was Da Huang.

After it saw Chen Xian bring back an exquisitely beautiful woman.

Its eyes immediately widened.

It was just about to lean over.

But a single sentence from Li Yu made Da Huang freeze in place.

”Where did this Local Dog come from?”

Da Huang: ”...”

A few days ago, when I hadn’t awakened my Local Dog Bloodline, I wouldn’t have blamed you for saying that, but now, what should you call me?

It was a descendant of the Celestial Dog!

Pure Bloodline!

Chen Xian gave it a Spirit Stone.

”It’s just a Local Dog with a bit of Spiritual Qi, that’s all.”

He didn’t want this woman to see through anything!

Although Li Yu could tell this dog was somewhat unusual, since Chen Xian said so, she didn’t expose it.

Instead, she lay down on Chen Xian’s bed.

Chen Xian looked blankly at Li Yu’s curvaceous figure.

”You’re going to sleep here?”

”Is that not allowed?”

Li Yu said with a beaming smile, ”You can also stay with me!”

The heavy atmosphere in the room only lasted for a few seconds before Chen Xian spoke up decisively: ”Forget it, I’ll be on the floor!”

Hearing this, Li Yu also let out a laugh.

”Little brother, you have the wicked heart but not the wicked courage!”

Chen Xian gave a cold snort.

”I have the wicked courage, I just don’t have the wicked capability!”
