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

100: New Marquis of Jubei, shall we go with this old servant?”It seems we’ve come out?”

One Prodigy looked at the surroundings and spoke subconsciously.

”Holy crap! Where’s the Opportunity?”

”Where’s that man?”

”Where did they all go?”

The reason they were so desperate to catch Chen Xian was for that Quasi-Saint Opportunity!

Coming out of the Secret Realm like this...

They needed to give an account to their Revered Masters, Sects, and Families!

Now that the Quasi-Saint Opportunity was gone,

and they appeared before everyone in such a pathetic state,

it was no different from an exam suddenly ending, and when your parents ask how you did, you say you didn’t even look at the paper because you pooped your pants!

Now, every single one of them wished they could crawl into a hole and hide.

Some of the cleverer ones had already started taking out Cleansing Talismans to clean themselves.

Although they didn’t get the Opportunity,

they couldn’t be this pathetically embarrassing!

However, at this moment, how could these Sects and noble Families allow these Prodigies to act as they pleased?

They immediately began to question them one by one.

”How was your experience in the Secret Realm this time?”

”What Opportunities did you obtain?”

”Why are you in such a pathetic state?”

These Prodigies had no choice but to aggrievedly recount their experiences within the Secret Realm.

”We were miserably swindled by a mysterious man wearing a mask. In the end, not only did he seize the Opportunity, but he also snatched away all our Spirit Stones.”

”That’s right, and our weapons too!”

If they said they gave them away voluntarily, it would sound terrible.

Say they were robbed!

That makes it sound a bit more tragic!

These Sects and Families originally thought this was a chance for the Juniors to make a name for themselves.

That’s why they were all waiting here.

The Southern Continent Sects were thinking about how to let the people of the North Continent know how strong they were.

These Families of the North Continent were also holding their breath, delusional enough to think they could rely on their Genius children to surpass the Southern Continent Sects!

As it turned out, these Disciples and clansmen they had painstakingly nurtured...

ended up coming out having made a huge mess?

They got nothing at all?

Instead, they were stripped of everything they had?

”Who was that person? Did you notice anything?”

”We don’t know either; we just know he seemed to have foresight!”

These Prodigies spoke in unison.

The Elder who had just asked the question almost tumbled down from the clouds.

Dammit, foresight.

Are you treating me like a fool?

At this moment, an urgent voice came from the clouds.

”Have you seen the Disciples of my Tianqi Sect?”

The preeminent Sect of the Da Gan Dynasty was the Tianqi Sect.

Wang Li had led the Prodigies of the Tianqi Sect inside, hoping to claim the top spot.

But now, they had all disappeared.

This gave the Tianqi Sect Elder an ominous premonition.

When these Prodigies heard the Tianqi Sect Elder’s inquiry,

as if they had pre-arranged it, they all said after a few seconds of silence: ”We don’t know!”

”Didn’t see them!”

”I haven’t seen Senior Brother Wang since I entered the Secret Realm!”

”Could it be that Senior Brother Wang didn’t enter the Secret Realm?”

At this time, the Prodigies and those Sects and Families were cross-referencing information.

Chen Xian, in the forest below, was almost laughing himself breathless.

These Prodigies, unexpectedly at a time like this, no longer had their previous overbearing and arrogant attitudes.

Instead, each of them looked like a lump of black coal, giving off a feeling of having a very miserable life.

”That’s impossible!”

”Wang Li is the Young Lord of our Tianqi Sect; his Realm has already reached the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. It’s impossible for him to disappear without reason!”

”Wait until I find out the truth! If I find out who killed them, no matter who it is, the Tianqi Sect will never rest until they are dead!”

However, after the Elder finished speaking,

he noticed that there was no sign of unease or panic on the faces of these Prodigies.

Instead, they were all brazen.

Fearless.

What was going on?

He had originally wanted to bluff them,

thinking he might be able to smoke them out.

But now, all these people were actually in this state.

In truth, all these Prodigies had one thought in their minds—believe me, you don’t want to know!

Following the mysterious man’s instructions, they had each given Wang Li a stab.

Later, to destroy the evidence,

these Prodigies had used their families’ most formidable methods for disposing of bodies.

They even supervised each other.

After all, they were all grasshoppers on the same string!

No one could escape.

So whether it was Wang Li or the others from the Tianqi Sect, they had all been ground to dust and scattered.

All traces obliterated!

Even if a Grand Unity Golden Immortal came, they wouldn’t be able to find out how this guy had disappeared.

”Since the Secret Realm has opened,”

”everyone, please return!”

Chen Buyu spoke up at this moment.

”Wait a moment, General Chen. If the matter of my Tianqi Sect Disciples’ disappearance isn’t cleared up, how can we let them leave?”

”Am I supposed to make all the Sects wait for just your one Sect?”

”Three days. Just three days. Once I uncover the truth, everyone can leave!”

Chen Buyu sneered.

”If one Sect takes three days, then these hundreds of Sects would take a year!”

”You’re making things very difficult for me!”

Hearing Chen Buyu’s words, the Tianqi Sect Elder’s face became extremely unsightly,

because he hadn’t expected this court lackey to dare to openly oppose him.

Just then, the palace attendant, Eunuch Zhang, walked out.

”The two of you, stop arguing.”

”This old servant has an Imperial Decree here!”

Hiss!

Everyone looked at Eunuch Zhang in unison.

They didn’t expect this old eunuch to stay behind all this time; it turned out there was an Imperial Decree waiting!

Eunuch Zhang took out the Imperial Decree and read aloud, ”By the Grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees: Chen Xian, the heir of the Marquis of Jubei, is unconventional and unparalleled in the world. He is hereby granted the title of Marquis of Jubei. Chen Xian, come forward to receive the decree!”

Once this Imperial Decree was issued,

both Chen Buyu and Li Yu, among others, were stunned.

The Emperor truly has quite the spirit.

To deal with Chen Xian, he actually issued two Imperial Decrees in succession.

The previous decree ordered Chen Xian to enter the Lake Bottom Secret Realm; if he hadn’t gone, it would have been defiance of an imperial order, and he could have been escorted to the capital!

Now that the Secret Realm had ended,

using a decree to force Chen Xian out, if he were injured, the Emperor could use medical treatment as an excuse to send him to the capital.

If he was uninjured, then after receiving the decree and expressing his gratitude, he would still have to go see His Majesty to give thanks!

No matter what,

in the end, it was nothing more than a pretext to escort Chen Xian to the capital.

”Chen Xian?”

”Chen Xian, come out to receive the decree!”

Li Yu broke into a cold sweat for Chen Xian.

Her imperial father had gone to such great lengths, even sending his personal eunuch.

It seemed it was all for the Immaculate Sacred Body.

Could Chen Xian really withstand this?

Just then,

Chen Xian ran out from the forest.

”Coming, I’m coming!”

Chen Xian ran out in a hurry.

He scrambled and threw himself onto the ground.

”Your subject, Chen Xian, receives the decree and thanks Your Majesty for your grace!”

Seeing Chen Xian’s terrified and submissive appearance, Li Yu felt a surge of amusement.

This guy really is a born actor!

He was clearly incredibly arrogant in the Secret Realm,

swindling everyone out of countless Spirit Stones.

But now he’s putting on a show of being cautious and timid.

Eunuch Zhang looked at Chen Xian’s behavior and said with a faint smile, ”Congratulations to the new Marquis of Jubei. However, according to etiquette, after being enfeoffed as a Marquis, the Marquis of Jubei must go to the capital to express his gratitude.”

”Marquis of Jubei, why not follow this old servant?”
