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

187: Chapter 187 Is this what they call a prestigious and righteous sect?”Of course, if you want to come back with me, that’s fine, but you should know the people at our manor; their tempers aren’t very good!”

”They were my father’s subordinates back then. Now that he’s dead, they’ve become even more arrogant and domineering. Even I can’t keep them in check. Your Majesty, even if you go...”

Chen Xian didn’t state it clearly, but the meaning was self-evident.

Even though Li Zhen knew Chen Xian’s words were three parts true and seven parts false...

He could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger.

After all, he really didn’t dare to go to Jubei City.

With the arrogant soldiers and fierce generals left behind by Invincible Chen, who would they respect other than Invincible Chen himself?

If he went, getting in would be easy.

Getting out would be difficult.

This was why Li Zhen hadn’t personally gone to Jubei City to bring Chen Xian back for so long.

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to, but that he didn’t dare!

”Fine, I will let you go back. If you don’t produce a way to Breakthrough to Quasi-Saint within three days, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

After Li Zhen said this, he shattered this Secret Realm with a punch.

Then he turned and left.

As for Chen Xian, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

If the Secret Realm hadn’t shattered, he really wouldn’t have known how to leave.

Coming out from there, he looked at the Moon Demon.

”Phew, we’re safe.”

The Moon Demon looked at Chen Xian with a complex gaze.

”Sometimes I really want to say, you are the craziest gambler I’ve ever seen!”

From last night until now...

Moon Demon finally understood Chen Xian’s true intentions for doing all this.

To obtain the Fearless Sword Saint’s sword.

This guy didn’t hesitate to enter the game himself, using himself as bait to hook Feng Haishan, and then using the strategy of driving the wolf to fight the tiger to let the Mohists eliminate Feng Haishan.

What followed was what he found most insane.

He actually got Li Zhen, a Quasi-Saint, to come and help him, and even temporarily fooled the guy with words.

Every step of the plan required not only a fast-moving brain but also sufficient courage.

After all, these were all experts who could annihilate Chen Xian with a flick of a finger.

Who would have thought that this weakest ant would actually become the biggest winner?

This maneuver was something even the Moon Demon wouldn’t dare to emulate at his peak.

To this day...

He was completely convinced by Chen Xian.

Chen Xian breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

”Stop being so sentimental here, let’s hurry up and leave. There are big things to do back in Jubei City!”

”You don’t really plan to give Li Zhen a way to Breakthrough to Quasi-Saint within three days, do you?”

Moon Demon sneered, ”If you have such a method, please tell me too, so I wouldn’t have wasted all that effort back then, only to be struck down by Heavenly Lightning and end up falling.”

Chen Xian laughed loudly.

”In three days, you’ll know!”

Moon Demon sighed.

He was speaking in riddles again.

However, this time he was even more curious about how Chen Xian would break the deadlock.

Returning to Shanhai City.

Chen Xian went straight to the inn where he stayed with Zhou Duoer.

But when he reached the room, he found that Zhou Duoer was not there.

”Boss, where is the little girl who stayed here two days ago?”

”There was always a dog by her side!”

The innkeeper, hearing this, said somewhat impatiently, ”You’re already the tenth one.”

Chen Xian was stunned.

”What tenth one?”

”The tenth person to ask about that girl.”

Chen Xian had an ominous premonition.

”Boss, did something happen to her?”

Seeing the boss hesitating...

Chen Xian directly took out a bag of Spirit Stones and threw it over.

The boss took the Spirit Stones, beaming with joy.

He immediately said, ”Honored guest, you can go check the outskirts north of the city.”

”As far as I know, she is being hunted by all the Sword Cultivators in the city, and her life is already hanging by a thread.”

The expression on Chen Xian’s face became incredibly cold.

”Why are they hunting her?”

The boss stroked his chin and said, ”Who told her to be related to the successor of the Fearless Sword Saint? These Sword Cultivators are hunting her down, likely wanting to use her to lure out that successor!”

”Tsk tsk, that successor is also really brainless, taking away the Fearless Sword Qi in public. Isn’t that the same as snatching everyone’s Opportunity?”

While he was chatting, Chen Xian’s face had already become exceptionally grim.

Zhou Duoer hadn’t acted with him; he thought she wouldn’t be implicated.

But he didn’t expect these Sword Cultivators to be insatiably greedy.

They eventually found out about the relationship between them.

”By the way, I was the one who reported this to everyone.”

”That Sword Cultivator brought the girl to my inn. If I hadn’t reported it, those Sword Cultivators would probably still be wandering aimlessly around Shanhai City!”

An unintentional remark from the boss.

Made Chen Xian, who was about to leave, stop in his tracks.

”So, the root cause of that girl being hunted is you?”

The boss said with a smile, ”I’m clever, aren’t I?”

Chen Xian sneered.

”Then did you see what that successor looks like?”

The boss recalled for a moment.

”If you ask me to describe it, I can’t quite say, but if he stood in front of me, I could definitely recognize him.”

”Oh? Really?”

Chen Xian took off the mask from his face.

He sneered and said, ”Does he look like this?”

The boss was stunned.

He stammered, ”You, you, you, so you are...”

Before he could finish his sentence...

A sword scar appeared at his throat.

When Chen Xian left, the boss’s head had already landed on the counter.

The northern outskirts of Shanhai City.

Over a hundred Sword Cultivators gathered here.

Each one had a sinister smile on their face.

”Little girl, just confess!”

”As long as you tell us where that man is, we’ll let you go!”

”Otherwise, you’ll be in for a miserable time!”

A disdainful sneer appeared on Zhou Duoer’s exhausted face.

”Heh, is this the conduct of the upright and honorable Sword Cultivators?”

”For the sake of a Legacy, you actually resort to any means, choosing to attack his Sword Attendant!”

”Bullying the weak with strength, and the few with numbers. You lot have truly opened this little girl’s eyes!”

Zhou Duoer’s words...

Made these Sword Cultivators lose face.

After all, they usually considered themselves members of the righteous sects.

Being called out by a little girl like this, they naturally felt embarrassed.

But then, the leading Sword Cultivator said coldly, ”Stop trying to deflect the issue here!”

”As Sword Cultivators, it is our duty to care for the world. If any one of us were a Saint’s Disciple, we would surely share the Sword Qi with everyone; how could we keep it for ourselves?”

”Such a person is not worthy of being the Saint’s successor.”

”We have a responsibility to strip him of his status as a successor.”

”Right, Brother Zhao is correct.”

”We must uphold our collective honor. Such a selfish guy is not worthy of being a Sword Cultivator!”

Hearing this, Zhou Duoer couldn’t help but laugh loudly.

”So this is what they call a prestigious righteous sect?”
