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

43: No, I’ve become the villain?Chen Buyu and Zhang Qingxue arrived in front of Ye Wentian almost simultaneously.

”This is impossible. How could they possibly follow a Demonic Cultivator and leave?”

”Did you see it with your own eyes?”

Feeling the pressure from the two powerhouses,

Ye Wentian subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Forcing himself to calm down, he said seriously, ”Yes. Zi Yun and I were hunting a Demonic Cultivator together, but we fell into a trap. We discovered that Chen Xian is already one of them. Zi Yun and I resisted with all our might, and in the end, I only managed to escape after losing an arm!”

With these words,

he had almost explicitly stated that Chen Xian was either a Demonic Cultivator or an accomplice, and that Zi Yun could not be trusted either!

Chen Buyu said sternly, ”Impossible! My Great Nephew has a pure Heart-Nature. How could he possibly become an accomplice to Demonic Cultivators?”

”Then where are they now?”

Ye Wentian pointed in a certain direction.

”Right in that direction!”

Chen Buyu and Zhang Qingxue led their people and rushed over quickly.

Meanwhile, the members of the Ye family began to treat Ye Wentian’s injuries.

A night passed.

The next morning.

When Chen Xian woke up, he saw the woman lying on his chest.

He let out a faint sigh.

Sigh, his original self was someone who believed so much in love, yet he ended up being a simp for years.

And now, in order to survive, he was desperately trying to become stronger.

Yet, this romantic fate had somehow found its way to him.

It truly was a case of ’the flowers one tends do not bloom, while the willow one ignores grows into shade’!

After returning last night, under Zi Yun’s initiative, the two of them were overcome with passion.

Naturally, everything that could be done was done that night.

When he woke up this morning,

Chen Xian let out a yawn.

Suddenly, his eyes widened.

Hmm?

Qi Refining Fifth Layer?

He had achieved a Breakthrough?

At that moment, Zi Yun was also woken up by the noise.

She got up groggily. Although she felt a bit embarrassed, the thought that she had already shared a bed with this man twice

made her feel less shy.

”Chen Xian, it seems like all the injuries on my body have healed!”

she said in surprise.

Chen Xian said with a wry smile, ”Not only that, I’ve also had a Breakthrough.”

The two of them looked at each other.

A heavy silence fell over the room.

Though neither spoke, they could see the shock and disbelief in each other’s eyes!

”This hehuan pill from the Joyous Union Sect is simply a Heaven-Defying existence!”

”It can not only break through cultivation levels but also heal injuries!”

”No wonder the Joyous Union Sect was able to become the number one Sect in the North Continent in such a short time! No need for Opportunities, no need for risks—one can raise their cultivation through pleasure alone!”

Zi Yun said somewhat hesitantly, ”But Revered Master said this is the practice of evil cultivators, something we of the righteous path despise!”

Regarding this distinction between righteous and evil,

Chen Xian had always been dismissive.

Because history is always written by the victors.

He sneered and said, ”Have you considered another possibility? Could it be that these so-called righteous Sects couldn’t keep up with the Joyous Union Sect’s cultivation speed, so they labeled them as evil cultivators?”

”This...”

Hearing Chen Xian put it this way,

Zi Yun also felt some doubt.

If she hadn’t experienced the Heaven-Defying effects brought by the hehuan pill, she probably would have denied it outright.

But now, she was indeed enjoying the benefits it provided!

”Alright, it’s time for us to leave!”

”After last night’s chaos, I’m afraid Jubei City will be on high alert from now on.”

Just as he was about to get up and leave, he was pinned down by Zi Yun.

”What are you doing?”

Zi Yun said faintly, ”I haven’t reached a Breakthrough yet!”

The sun rose high in the sky!

Chen Xian got out of bed with a resentful look.

”Don’t worry, if you want a formal status, I’m not saying I can’t give it to you, but you have to cut ties with those other women!”

”Especially Liu Ruyan and Li Yu!”

This last sentence was Zi Yun’s true goal.

For some reason, whenever she saw Chen Xian with other women, she felt uncomfortable.

However, Chen Xian refused without hesitation.

”Please, what nonsense are you talking about? If I were with you, wouldn’t your Revered Master tear me apart?”

He still didn’t know how to deal with the mess involving Li Yu.

If another Zi Yun was added to the mix, he would truly have a massive headache.

Especially since Li Yu was a princess; they were just acting, and while the Imperial Family might be harsh, they wouldn’t try to kill him.

But if Zhang Qingxue found out her precious Disciple had fallen for him,

she would likely come for his life.

Chen Xian wanted to live for a few more years!

A forced smile appeared on the corner of Zi Yun’s mouth.

”Hmph, I was just joking!”

”Anyway, in a few days, we’ll be affected by the hehuan pill and our bodies will explode. You’d better hurry up and find a solution!”

”I know, I know.”

Seeing how this man acted as if everything was none of his business, Zi Yun couldn’t help but feel a surge of anger.

”To avoid any misunderstandings, I’ll head out first!”

Chen Xian put on his clothes and quickly slipped away!

As for Zi Yun, looking at his hurried back, she muttered to herself, ”Hmph, this young lady is as beautiful as a goddess, only a blind man like you would avoid me!”

Inside Jubei City!

As Chen Xian walked down the street, he noticed that the atmosphere in the city had indeed become tense.

On every street, there was a guard almost every ten steps, all of them elites under Chen Buyu’s command.

”Tsk, should I go back to Juxian Tower first, or should I talk to this Second Uncle first?”

Looking at how that cheap Second Uncle acted, his feelings for him seemed sincere.

If that was the case, it wouldn’t hurt to have a word with him.

Thinking of this, Chen Xian was just about to find someone to ask when he suddenly heard someone shout, ”Chen Xian!”

He subconsciously turned around.

Only to see a group of people surrounding him.

One of them sneered, ”Chen Xian, we’ve finally caught you!”

Chen Xian: ”???”

”Why are you catching me?”

”You’ve colluded with Demonic Cultivators. We have orders to take you into custody!”

”If you dare to resist, you will be killed on the spot!”

Chen Xian’s right eyelid twitched wildly.

Holy crap, who the hell said that?

However, the other party didn’t give him a chance to explain.

Dozens of people moved almost simultaneously.

Chen Xian didn’t hold back either, as he could tell they truly wanted his life.

He drew his sword and slashed!

The Sword Qi instantly tore a gap in the encirclement.

He also quickly fled the scene.

Something was wrong—one hundred percent, one thousand percent wrong.

This time, Chen Xian didn’t even return to Juxian Tower.

Instead, he began leading these people on a chase around Jubei City.

Meanwhile.

At the Yaochi Immortal Palace station.

Zi Yun’s return also caused a shock among the Sect members.

”Zi Yun, how did you get back?”

”They said you were abducted by a Demonic Cultivator. Is this true?”

Zi Yun was completely bewildered. After hearing what her Revered Master said,

she immediately began to tremble with rage.

That damned Ye Wentian actually made a false accusation.

Claiming she was abducted by a Demonic Cultivator!

Now, what should she do?

Tell the truth?

If she did, she feared her reputation as a closed-door Disciple would be ruined by gossip!

But if she didn’t prove her innocence, she and Chen Xian would both become enemies of Jubei City!
