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

123: At the front lines of the mountains and seas, everyone gathers!Ning Linger, though dismissive, couldn’t help but remember how much her grandfather respected him and that he was her Great-Junior Martial Uncle’s close friend.

She didn’t dare to be neglectful herself.

She could only offer a lukewarm ”thank you.”

Chen Xian saw her complex expression clearly.

However, he didn’t offer much explanation; he had already given her the map of the Shanhai Secret Realm.

If she believed him and gained an Opportunity, that was her fate!

If she didn’t believe and missed out, that was also her fate!

Fate was in her own hands, and it wasn’t for others to decide.

They disembarked from the dragon boat.

Chen Xian and the others felt countless gazes fixed upon them!

After all, Chen Xian and his group’s appearance was far too eye-catching.

As Chen Xian walked down, a Big Yellow Dog led the way, while a cat was perched on his shoulder.

A little girl was even following by his side.

Behind them were the Merfolk in black cloaks, Zhao Hu, and the others.

The members of the Xun Sheng Sect followed behind them.

”What a strange lineup!”

”Are these people from the Xun Sheng Sect as well?”

At that moment, the Moon Demon whispered from Chen Xian’s shoulder, ”Kid, you’re going to be the target of everyone’s attention this time!”

Chen Xian shrugged.

”Rather than hiding and letting them waste their efforts looking for me, I might as well step out proactively!”

”Especially... some people can’t afford to let me die!”

Chen Xian said with a smile after spotting a familiar figure.

This person was none other than Pei Ning, the vice commander of the Gan Emperor’s Imperial Guard, whom he had seen before in the Lake Bottom Secret Realm!

She was clad in armor, looking valiant and heroic, exuding an imposing Killing Intent!

”Aren’t you afraid Sun Xiu and the others will fight you to the death? While the Gan Emperor doesn’t want you to die here, Sun Xiu and his lot are different!”

”These people probably hate you to death!”

As if by telepathy, just as the Moon Demon finished speaking, Chen Xian felt it too.

He felt several venomous gazes.

It was none other than Sun Xiu and his group.

At this moment, Sun Xiu and the others were looking at Chen Xian with eyes practically spitting fire!

Damn it, they had made full preparations, intending to catch a turtle in a jar and kill Chen Xian.

But they hadn’t expected this kid to slip away without anyone noticing.

Now that he was coming off another Sect’s dragon boat, how could they not realize that Chen Xian had perfectly avoided them?

This gave Sun Xiu and the others the feeling of having unleashed a powerful move only for it to hit nothing.

After disembarking, Chen Xian cupped his hands to Ning Banshan.

”Thank you for the ride, Senior!”

”Think nothing of it!”

After a few simple pleasantries...

Chen Xian led his group openly toward the North Continent’s Da Gan Dynasty encampment.

Although the Prodigies of the Five Great Continents were to enter the Shanhai Secret Realm together...

They still had their own small groups.

Within the respective camps of the Five Great Continents, the clans and Sects each kept to their own territory.

Just as Chen Xian arrived at the Da Gan Dynasty encampment...

Sun Xiu and the others quickly stepped forward.

”Chen Xian, you—”

”Impudent!”

Before Sun Xiu could finish, he was rebuked by Chen Xian.

”Addressing me by name upon meeting this Marquis? Is that how your Prince’s Mansion taught you?”

”Or are you dissatisfied with the title the Emperor bestowed upon me, and thus show contempt for imperial authority?”

Hearing this, Sun Xiu’s face turned pale.

”I did not!”

In his heart, he had already cursed Chen Xian a thousand times.

Damn it, this grandson is too good at pinning labels on people!

One had to know that this time, the Shanhai Secret Realm was being broadcast simultaneously via shadow-recording stones.

Right now, his every move would simultaneously appear before the eyes of the major figures in the capital’s court.

Even the Emperor would be watching personally.

With the label Chen Xian just pinned on him...

It could easily be a capital offense warranting the execution of nine generations.

Sun Xiu was shaking with rage, almost unable to speak.

”Marquis of Jubei, we only wanted to ask, what is the meaning of you leaving our dragon boat without a word and boarding a ship of an Eastern Continent Sect?”

”Could it be that our Da Gan Dynasty’s dragon boat cannot carry a great Marquis like you!”

At the critical moment, Tian Wuqi stepped forward to defuse the situation, and not only that, he turned the tables on Chen Xian!

Exactly, since you are the Marquis of Jubei, why did you go and board an Eastern Continent Sect’s ship?

Could it be that you have some treacherous intentions?

Hearing this, Chen Xian didn’t get angry but instead laughed.

”Haha, it’s just that these past few nights, the dragon boat was filled with certain decadent sounds! It was so noisy this Marquis couldn’t sleep!”

Chen Xian looked at the group meaningfully.

He said smugly, ”As for what those decadent sounds were exactly, do you want me to describe them to all the North Continent Prodigies?”

”No need! No need!”

Sun Xiu immediately pulled Tian Wuqi back.

In their eyes, Chen Xian was now an out-and-out madman.

If they let this fellow keep spouting nonsense...

There was no telling what he might say. If Chen Xian spoke about what happened the night before last and brought out a shadow-recording stone as evidence...

Why would they even bother entering the Shanhai Secret Realm!

They might as well just die out here!

At the thought of this...

The expressions of the group became extremely frustrated.

Meanwhile...

Thousands of miles away in the capital, within the imperial court.

Hundreds of officials stood in their ranks.

Above them, the Twelve Kings sat in their respective thrones.

And above them all!

Was a dragon throne.

Seated upon the dragon throne was a man wearing a bright yellow dragon robe.

This person was none other than the Gan Emperor, Li Zhen.

He watched the scene on the court’s light screen.

He couldn’t help but curl his lips into a cold smile, saying, ”This young man is truly interesting!”

After he spoke, the people below followed with awkward laughter and agreement.

Since it was the Emperor’s praise...

They naturally had to follow suit, especially since the person being praised was Invincible Chen’s son, the new Marquis of Jubei!

However, their smiles were tinged with a bit of caution and wariness.

Because the ones Chen Xian had just humiliated were the descendants of these Twelve Kings.

Who would dare to laugh heartily without a care?

Shanhai Frontline.

North Continent encampment.

The crowd watched the scene playfully; there weren’t many people who could make Sun Xiu suffer a setback, but this lord was certainly one of them.

Especially since Chen Xian was the newly appointed Marquis of Jubei.

The confrontation just now had made the group even more curious about this Marquis of Jubei.

”Wasn’t it said that this man was a pathetic simp and a useless second generation ancestor? Why does he seem a bit different?”

”It seems some people have been hiding their brilliance for over twenty years.”

”Invincible Chen suppressed the court for decades by his own strength; whether they were Marquises or Princes, they couldn’t help but tremble at the sight of that man. I wonder what this new Marquis of Jubei will be like!”

”As long as he doesn’t disgrace his father’s illustrious name, it’ll be fine!”

The people below whispered among themselves.

The powerful figures of the North Continent weren’t idle either.

A man wearing a red official robe looked down from above and murmured to himself, ”Invincible Chen has sired a good son!”

”Relying only on a sharp tongue is no real skill. True ability depends on the strength shown within the Shanhai Secret Realm!”

”With this kid’s Qi Refining Seventh Layer, can he really do it?”

”Just don’t let him wet his pants the moment he enters!”
