Chapter 139 Conversation

  The strong on the high platform all flew away, leaving only these twenty people behind, and those who had a good relationship with Chen Xuan came to congratulate him one after another.

  "Chen Xuan, congratulations to you! I didn't expect that you would be so formidable, even Qian Kun was defeated by you and got slapped twice. Tomorrow, the entire Northern Territory will probably know that our Danxuan Gate has produced such a talent. Absolutely a genius! At such a young age, you've already won the championship of this grand competition!" A disciple congratulated him;

  "Chen Xuan, this time you got the championship, but you also offended Qian Kun. I'm afraid he will look for trouble with you in the future." Yeyun said.

  "It doesn't matter, as long as Qian Kun dares to come again, I will continue to slap him" Chen Xuan said calmly.

  "You little brat, you're not afraid of heaven or earth. Fortunately, I didn't have any dealings with you, otherwise these two months would have been utterly humiliated by you." Another loud quacking voice sounded, Ji Wu Shang said:

  Xiao Qiuyu also came to congratulate Chen Xuan; "Younger brother, don't forget our agreement, I won't return until I'm drunk," after saying that Xiao Qiuyu rushed towards his own mountain peak.

  Fei Yan came over to Chen Xuan after Xiao Qiuyu left, offering her congratulations as well. "Congratulations on winning the championship!" Fei Yan's icy face gradually revealed a smile, and she gave Chen Xuan a gentle smile, causing the surrounding disciples' hearts to flutter with excitement.

  "Thank you, elder sister," Chen Xuan replied politely.

  Even Feng Ling, Qin Huo, and Li Cheng all came to congratulate Chen Xuan one by one. Chen Xuan didn't put on any airs, and politely responded to each of them. In fact, Chen Xuan wasn't too concerned about this championship. When he saw the strong people from the Earth Spirit Realm, he realized how small he was. Therefore, his enthusiasm for this championship was not that exciting. Strength is what matters most.

  Everyone congratulated each other and rushed to their own mountain peaks. Chen Xuan also returned to his Lian Mountain Peak. The five-day competition seemed like a year had passed, Chen Xuan sighed.

  At dawn, a middle-aged man with a majestic aura stood on a mountain peak, accompanied by a beautiful young girl around 20 years old. Her eyebrows and eyes were like a painting, with a heavenly beauty. However, she kept her head down beside the majestic man, clutching the hem of her skirt with both hands.

  "Father, this time you were invited to watch the inner gate's grand comparison at Danxuan Gate, what was the result?" a 20-year-old girl asked.

  "I came to see you today about this matter. This time, your Danxuan Gate has produced a top-notch genius who can defeat veteran disciples at a young age and almost sweep the inner door disciples of your Danxuan Gate. He won the championship in this big competition. I'm here to tell you that you should interact with him more often, as he may be helpful to our Huang family in the future. It's best for us to win him over now while his strength is not yet too powerful," said the majestic man.

  "What do you mean, Father? You once arranged for me to marry Bi Shaoqing for the sake of the family. You knew he was a scoundrel who indulged in wine and women, yet you still wanted me to marry him. Am I just a sacrifice to elevate our family's status in your eyes?" The girl finished speaking and suddenly dropped two clear tears;

  "In the past, Father was wrong, but recently he received news that Bi Shaoqing has not returned since arriving in our Huang City and has been out of contact. The Bi family also sent people to investigate this matter, thinking they could hide it from me, but I would know everything as soon as anyone enters Huang City. This time, the Bi family sent several groups of people to investigate Bi Shaoqing's disappearance, and I suspect that Bi Shaoqing is already dead, so your engagement should be cancelled too. Can't you forgive Father?"

  "Really?" A hint of a smile appeared on the girl's face, but it was quickly retracted. It seemed that the Bi family still hadn't discovered how Bi Shaoqin had died. For now, only she knew the truth about his death, and she wouldn't be able to reveal this secret either. The girl thought to herself in a low voice;

  "Isn't Father afraid that the Bi family will cause us trouble? After all, Bi Shaoqiang did go missing in our Huang City, and we do have some responsibility. What if the Bi family asks us for an explanation?" the girl continued to ask;

  "They dare, Bi Shaoqin's disappearance is his own business, I've already investigated it. The four of them left the Shuntian Pavilion auction house and split up at that time. Three slaves were left to stay in the inn, and Bi Shaoqin himself left the city. I believe the Bi family has also conducted an investigation, so they haven't revealed any news until now. The outside world still doesn't know about Bi Shaoqin's death. I estimate that Bi Wenlei temporarily doesn't want people to know about his son's death either."

  "So the engagement between me and Bi Shaoqin is completely off, then? Does Father not want to cooperate again?" The girl asked tentatively.

  "The current Bi family has become wary of us and it's impossible for them to cooperate with us again. Your father won't make the same mistake twice, last time when you came back home your mother kept telling me that she wanted to cancel this engagement but now it's too late, I hope you can forgive your father, take some time to go back home and visit your mother more often, for the alliance between our family and Bi's family, your mother has never forgiven me"

  The girl's face finally broke into a pear-blossom smile, her hands grasping the strong man's arm. "Father, are you leaving today? Won't you stay and keep me company for a while?" she coquettishly asked.

  "You kid, just now you were still being so stubborn with your father, but as soon as you heard that the marriage was cancelled, you immediately started throwing a tantrum. You're already at the True Martial Realm level, if others saw this it would be really bad." The majestic man said kindly.

  "I don't care, since Father has come this time, he should spend more time with Yong'er" the young girl said stubbornly.

  "I also want to stay, but there are still many things waiting for me to solve in the family. As for this disciple I just told you about, you consider it yourself, and from now on, your father will not force you to do anything." The majestic man seemed to have come to a realization and said:

  "What's the name of this disciple you're talking about? Did Qian Kun even lose to him? I heard that Qian Kun isn't even a match for ordinary True Martial Realm cultivators, how could he possibly lose to some new disciple?" the girl asked.

  "This disciple also joined Dan Xuan Men this year and is now at Lian Shan Peak. His name is Chen Xuan, I watched"

  His skeleton should still be around sixteen or seventeen years old, and it's not many people who can reach this level at such a young age. Only some big families and sects can cultivate disciples like him. However, I've been investigating, and Chen Xuan doesn't have any background, and he achieved all this in just two months through his own efforts. The talents cultivated by those families are somewhat lacking compared to him, after all, he didn't rely on any external power, but rather relied solely on himself to cultivate. That's why I told you to try to win him over if possible," the man said.

  "Chen Xuan, this name is so unfamiliar to me. I'm afraid it won't be unfamiliar starting today. Father's words, I remember. I'll go back and try my best to win Chen Xuan over. But people like him seem to be unable to be restrained by anything. Father should also prepare himself mentally." Huang Ying said

  Huang Ying of course knew who Chen Xuan was, but Huang Ying didn't want to let anyone else know that Chen Xuan had killed Bi Shaoqiang, not even his own father Huang Ying. Who knows if his father would use this matter to threaten Chen Xuan in the future? Huang Ying still felt a lingering fear thinking about how Chen Xuan had killed two True Martial Realm cultivators. The fewer people who knew about this matter, the better, so Huang Ying chose to speak to Chen Xuan with an unfamiliar tone.

  "This I naturally know, as long as there is a bone of pride in someone, no one wants to be restricted. Father's intention was for you to get along with him, nothing else. It won't take long before he reaches the True Martial Realm too, so don't put on airs like a True Martial Realm disciple, thinking you're superior, and speaking to him as a True Martial Realm disciple. That might provoke his displeasure later on. This time at the Grand Competition, I also found that Chen Xuan isn't difficult to get along with, but the premise is not to pose a threat to him. Once you show an attitude of threatening him, it's likely that things won't go smoothly in the future."

  "I know, I'll find a chance to visit in a few days. It's getting late, and I should head back too. When I have time, I'll come back to the family and see Mother."

  "Go, take care of yourself. Now I feel that the entire Northern Territory is starting to stir up, and perhaps in a few years, the entire Northern Territory will undergo a great transformation. I also hope that our Huang family will be one of the beneficiaries of this transformation. Therefore, we won't let go of any opportunity to win over talented disciples, maybe one day they'll become key figures shaping the future of the Northern Territory. So from now on, you must also be careful in your actions."

  After finishing speaking, the two separated; the girl Ye Fei returned to her own cave mansion.

  It was still almost an hour before dawn, Chen Xuan had already gotten ready and it would take about the time of burning one incense stick to reach the main peak. He should set off early, so he put on his backpack and left his cave, heading towards Zhongwu Hall at the main peak.
