Chapter 46: The Honorable Bows, Off To Royal Azure Dynasty
In the guest room of White Jade Hotel.
Chu Kuangren opened his eyes and awakened from a deep meditative state.
His cultivation base had massively improved from the initial stage of Nascent Soul Realm into full Nascent Soul, leaving only a half step before ascending into Paradise Realm.
“The Primordial Purple Haze is unique indeed. The remaining effect was enough for my cultivation to trespass several smaller realms, whereas the Daoist intuition I gained while absorbing the haze will certainly be helpful in future cultivations.”
Chu Kuangren smiled pleasingly.
Although his cultivation had only reached full Nascent Soul, his Daoist intuition had far surpassed that of people in this realm, perhaps not losing even to a Battle Monarch.
In fact, it could even be comparable to an Honorable One.
The Primordial Purple Haze was powerful.
“Young one, looks like you’ve made some decent progress.”
Seventh Forefather’s voice appeared from thin air.
Then, a ripple began to appear within an empty space as the Seventh Forefather emerged from within. He was a middle-aged man dressed in white robes with facial features resembling that of a heroic general.
“Greetings, Seventh Forefather,” Chu Kuangren stood up and gave the fist-palm salute. He had only just found out about Seventh Forefather’s identity as the seventh Sect Leader of the Black Heaven Sect, a status few tiers higher than his Honorable Teacher.
He would not have thought that Seventh Forefather would become his Daoist Protector, especially during the time when he was in Heavenly Deterioration Stage Five.
Chu Kuangren felt a sense of respect towards Seventh Forefather welling within him.
“Please, it’s me who’s supposed to greet you properly. If it weren’t for you, I won’t be who I am right now,” Seventh Forefather expressed his gratitude and proceeded to bow towards Chu Kuangren as his way of greeting.
If word spread that a Supreme Honorable had bowed to a young junior, many would have been appalled by the news.
Chu Kuangren hastily tried to stop him and said, “Seventh Forefather, don’t you think you’re being too generous? Judging by your status, I’m not fit to receive such grace from you.”
“Oh but you do,” Seventh Forefather reiterated. Cultivators who had never been through the Heavenly Deterioration Stage Five could never imagine the pain he went through.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt was agonizing to be unable to do anything but watch oneself slowly deteriorate from one’s peak into death.
Chu Kuangren’s Life Extension Pill not only allowed him to return to his peak and lengthened his lifespan, but it also gave him another precious opportunity to pursue the supreme path. It was not an exaggeration to suggest that Chu Kuangren was the equivalence of his parents reincarnated.
Seventh Forefather had sworn in his heart that his life now belonged to Chu Kuangren, and that he would protect Chu Kuangren till his last breath.
Chu Kuangren did not persuade Seventh Forefather any further. When prompted again about the origin of the Life Extension Pill, Chu Kuangren merely said that he had found it amongst Yuan Ling’s treasures. After all, it was unlikely that Seventh Forefather understood all there was to know about Yuan Ling’s treasures.
After he exited the room, Chu Kuangren came to see Lan Yu who was leaning against a tree.
She was in a blue-white blouse, and her silver hair was resting gracefully on her shoulder. Her beauty had completely undermined the scenery behind her.
“This lady has been guarding you ever since she recovered two days ago and has never left. Such a good lady,” Seventh Forefather said telepathically.
Chu Kuangren nodded, “A good lady indeed.”
“Master.”
Sensing that Chu Kuangren had exited from isolation, Lan Yu went and greeted him.
“How are your wounds?”
“They’re gone.”
“Thank you for all you did in the past two days,” Chu Kuangren said gently as he reached out and grabbed a fallen leaf that was on Lan Yu’s head.
Lan Yu felt her heart racing as butterflies fluttered in her stomach. Blushes began to appear on her elegant face.
“It’s… it’s alright.”
“Coughs.”
The sound of a man came from aside, and that man was Li Xingchen.
Lan Yu immediately resumed her usual indifferent, fierce expressions, and stared directly at Li Xingchen.
For reasons unknown to him, Li Xingchen felt a chill down his spine.
“Brother Li, it’s been a few days since we last met. How are you?”
Chu Kuangren smiled and greeted Li Xingchen.
“Oh, Brother Chu, if only you knew. During your days of closed-door meditation, things have gotten messy out there,” Li Xingchen replied excitedly.
“Oh, how messy?”
Chu Kuangren laughed.
“What do you think? Obviously, it has to do with you killing Honorable Swordsman White Cloud,” Li Xingchen was still incredulous about what happened.
When cultivators left their sects to train, they always started small. This commonly involved killing thieves, beasts or maybe participating in some martial art matches.
For Chu Kuangren, he immediately went on to kill a Supreme Honorable the moment he left his sect!
Why was he still training if he was so strong?!
Li Xingchen then proceeded to narrate everything that unfolded in the past few days.
Chu Kuangren was not too surprised. After all, there were only so few Supreme Honorables in Azure Dragon Domain, the death of any of them would surely yield a dramatic reaction.
Whatmore if the death was caused by a junior cultivator like him. It would be weird if people were not overreacting to the news. However, what was bizarre to him was the quarrels that ensued between the various sage orthodoxies.
On top of that was the martial art exchange matchmaking.
Who would have thought a sage orthodoxy would pull off something like this?
…
“By the way, Brother Chu, are you attending the matchmaking?”
Li Xingchen asked.
“Why should I go? I have absolutely no interest in Princess Linglong,” Chu Kuangren shook his head and said.
Li Xingchen said, “Princess Linglong is considered one of the few top beauties in this realm, are you sure you aren’t interested at all?”
“If you put it that way, maybe a little. Still, no matter how pretty she is, could she be as pretty as Lan Yu?” Chu Kuangren smiled and said.
Lan Yu’s lips curled slightly as she was bathed with joy.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLi Xingchen laughed and replied, “Lan Yu’s beauty is unparalleled, there’s undoubtedly only a few who could surpass her in beauty. However, Princess Linglong isn’t that bad at all. In fact, rumor has it that her body is carrying a… Godly Daoist Physique.
Chu Kuangren became more alert and said, “You mean… the Godly Daoist Physique that could allow a cultivator to boost their cultivation base and enter an Enlightenment Stage on their nuptial night?”
“Exactly.”
Li Xingchen smiled in a manner that only men could relate to.
There existed plenty of mysterious and unique objects in this huge world. A Godly Daoist Physique was a Daoist Physique that could only be rivaled by a Supreme Daoist Physique.
The Godly Daoist Physique was unique. It allowed the owner to release a unique Godly Essence in their first intercourse, which would allow a cultivator to boost their cultivation base and enter an Enlightenment Stage.
Since ancient times, anyone who possessed this physique, both men and women, had piqued the romantic interest of countless cultivators. Some might say that it was not romantic interest, but greed.
“Fortunately, Princess Linglong is the princess of the Royal Azure Dynasty. Otherwise, her gift would have been long stolen by others.”
“Hmm,” Chu Kuangren nodded.
“The martial art exchange matchmaking has invited the sky-prides from many sects, even those outside of Azure Dragon Domain. It’ll surely be a crowded event. I’m planning to start the journey within the next few days. Brother Chu, are you really not going?”
Li Xingchen asked Chu Kuangren again.
Chu Kuangren contemplated for a while before replying, “In that case, we should go.”
He did not agree to go because of Princess Linglong. Rather, Chu Kuangren wanted to expose himself to the world as much as he could.
Now that sky-prides from all over the world were heading towards the Royal Azure Dynasty, what better place to gain exposure than there?
“Hehe, Brother Chu, with your impressive abilities, you’ll surely earn the grand prize of the martial art exchange matchmaking,” Li Xingchen once again smiled mischievously.
Chu Kuangren rolled his eyes and said, “You’re thinking too much now. I’m just curious to meet the sky-prides from all over the world. The matchmaking is the least of my priorities.”
“Of course, of course,” Li Xingchen was still giggling.
Chu Kuangren shook his head. He did not bother to explain any further.
Three days later.
Chu Kuangren and the two others started their journey towards the Royal Azure Dynasty.
The distance between White Cloud City and Royal Azure Dynasty was millions of miles apart. However, there existed a transportation system in Firmament Star that was called the Goddess Evoke Ship. With the consumption of a few soulstones, it would allow a person to travel vast distances within a short amount of time.
The trio boarded the Goddess Evoke Ship and arrived at the palace of Royal Azure Dynasty in approximately two days’ time.
