Chapter 2236
Three or five breaths passed before Xia Jiuyou finally came to her senses. Her whole body trembled slightly, her eyes filled with shock. She stared blankly at Chen Xuan, and after a long hesitation, she finally managed to stammer, "You... how did you do that?"
Chen Xuan chuckled upon hearing this, his tone slightly teasing: "Call me 'husband,' and I'll tell you, how about that?"
"Get out." Xia Jiuyou turned her head away, her ears burning. With a flick of her wrist, she stored the precious scroll in her storage ring.
She knew perfectly well that even if she screamed, that bastard would never reveal a word.
"Fine, I won't call you that. Plenty of people will. Who do you think you are?" Chen Xuan deliberately provoked her. As soon as he finished speaking, his divine sense suddenly spread out, like thousands of silver threads probing towards the ocean islands of the Western Wilderness, precisely locking onto a hidden immortal abode. He transmitted his voice:
"Zixia, don't ask anything, just call me husband."
"Huh? Brother Chen Xuan, are you serious?" Zixia's telepathic message quickly came through, carrying a hint of unease and shyness, as faint as a mosquito's buzz, "Alright then, husband... husband."
"Oh, how embarrassing! Brother Chen Xuan, my sister is here, I..." Zixia's coquettish voice came to an abrupt halt, presumably because she had been caught red-handed and had hurriedly cut off the transmission.
Chen Xuan turned his head triumphantly, only to be met with Xia Jiuyou's eyes rolling to the sky.
"Shameless and despicable..." Xia Jiuyou's chest heaved violently with anger, her clothes outlining a captivating curve. She clenched her fists and gritted her teeth. If she didn't know she couldn't win, she would have already drawn her sword and stepped forward to teach this bastard a lesson.
"You eat by yourself, I'm full." Xia Jiuyou said, suddenly standing up, her skirt sweeping across the embers of the campfire on the ground, igniting a few sparks.
But after taking only two steps, she suddenly stopped, her fingers gripping the storage ring with a conflicted expression. She never liked owing favors to others, and Chen Xuan had given her such a treasure; how could she accept it for nothing?
After hesitating for a long time, she finally pretended to be nonchalant. With a wave of her jade hand, a purple-gold silk book flew out from her ring. Runes flowed on the silk book, faintly exuding supreme pressure, and it landed steadily in front of Chen Xuan.
“I, Xia Jiuyou, never take advantage of others. You want this, right? I'll give it to you. We'll be even.”
Without turning back, she waved her hand and a magnificent jade palace appeared out of thin air. The palace was surrounded by spiritual light, and the jade pavilions and towers were faintly visible. She lightly touched the ground with her toes and entered the palace. The palace door closed with a "hum", cutting off all outside sounds.
Chen Xuan reached out and caught the purple-gold silk scroll, unfolding it casually. But when he saw the words on it, he froze instantly, his pupils contracted sharply, his breath caught in his throat, and he was so numb that he couldn't come to his senses for a long time.
It took him a long time to react. He gritted his teeth and cursed at Xia Jiuyou's immortal abode, "Who owes whom? Fine, you tricked me back in the Devouring Demon Star Void, and this isn't over yet. You tricked me again during the ten days in the immortal abode. You just wait!"
The four ancient seal characters “Qian Yuan Sheng Dian” on the silk scroll exude a powerful Taoist charm that is dazzling to the eye.
He quickly glanced at the opening and was shocked at first glance—once one has reached the minor level of cultivation, one can create eighteen primordial spirit clones with a single thought, and each clone can retain the peak combat power of the second primordial spirit!
But when he looked further down at the rare and precious materials needed for cultivation, he realized that something was wrong.
"The most precious treasures needed for cultivation are: [Innate Origin Liquid, Heart of the Stars, and Myriad Divine Fruits]?"
"Innate Origin Liquid?!"
The feeling of being thoroughly tricked by a woman welled up inside Chen Xuan, making him grit his teeth in anger, yet he was helpless.
He angrily grabbed a piece of venison and swallowed it in large gulps, muttering that he would definitely settle accounts with Xia Jiuyou later. But as soon as the thought arose, a hurried and shocked cry suddenly rang out from the depths of his mind, making his soul tremble.
"The heaven-defying inheritance of the 'Nine Deaths Supreme', the 'Thousand Yuan Sacred Scripture'?" Xiao Ta's voice was full of disbelief as he pressed, "Kid, where did you get your hands on it?"
Chen Xuan was taken aback and subconsciously replied, "Xia Jiuyou gave it to me? Is this technique really that heaven-defying?" In his opinion, such a technique that could create eighteen clones was only usable by those below the Tribulation Transcending Realm at most, and could not be considered truly heaven-defying.
