"So, this time, when I knew the Sect Leader wanted Xiao Yuan to come to War Ancient Sky with me, I brought you along." The Fifth Elder poured a cup of tea and took a sip, "I wanted to give you and Xiao Yuan a chance to interact alone."

"Grandpa, you..." Fang Chuanjian raised his head, somewhat surprised.

"Jian'er, if possible, try to pursue Xiao Yuan," the Fifth Elder continued, "If she can become a member of the Fang Family, it won't be long before the Dao Qing Sect is ours as well."

"Ah?" Fang Chuanjian's breath hitched.

The Fifth Elder said no more.

————

At the same time.

Su Chen moved like a specter within the War God Palace.

He was searching, searching for Wen Rou, but after searching for half a day, he couldn't find her!!!

Not a trace at all.

As he searched, Su Chen's heart grew heavy. Could it be, Wen Rou has already been killed by Xiang Qianqing?

"Young boy Su, don't worry too much. Haven't you noticed that Xiang Qianqing has also disappeared? If I'm not mistaken, Xiang Qianqing and Wen Rou are together. Also, Xiang Qianqing will definitely make Wen Rou witness her being taken away and ascending by the strongmen of the Dao Qing Sect." Jiuyou said.

"Hopefully." Su Chen stopped searching; continuing such a useless search would only lead to being discovered.

Returning to Xiao Yuan's room.

"You're back?" Xiao Yuan's beautiful eyes lit up, somewhat surprised; Su Chen returned earlier than she expected.

"Yuan'er. I didn't find Wen Rou." Su Chen was still somewhat worried.

"Tell me about Wen Rou," Xiao Yuan said softly, her curiosity piqued.

Su Chen didn't hold back.

He told her everything about Wen Rou.

"Su Chen, are you saying that originally the Hourglass Physique belonged to Wen Rou? It was forcibly taken by Xiang Qianqing?" Xiao Yuan was stunned, unheard of, and if it's true, then... then that Xiang Qianqing is too cruel, worse than a viper, deserving death a thousand times over.

"Tomorrow, I will kill Xiang Qianqing on the spot." Su Chen said firmly, his voice leaving no room for doubt.

"Ah?" Xiao Yuan was anxious, "Su Chen, don't do anything foolish. The Fifth Elder isn't someone you can deal with."

"What level of strength does the Fifth Elder have?" Su Chen asked.

"Humanity Path Realm Seventh Level."

Su Chen fell silent, the corners of his mouth twitching.

Truly strong!

"Old Dragon. Humanity Path Realm Seventh Level. If you lend me your strength, is there a chance to defeat him?" Su Chen communicated with Old Dragon.

"Hard to say. You can try. Forget about taking down a Humanity Path Realm Seventh Level. But now, you can handle more of my power than before. Trying to defeat a martial cultivator of that level isn't impossible. Besides, you don't need to risk your life against him. The one you need to kill is just Xiang Qianqing."

"Hmm. If it really doesn't work, there's still Yuan'er, she's sure to help me."

Just then.

Outside the door.

Voices came again.

"Goddess. I hear there's a War God City at the foot of the mountain of the War God Palace. It's bustling. Would you like me to accompany you for a tour?"

It was still Fang Chuanjian.

To Xiao Yuan, he was respectful with a touch of flattery.

Although he admired Xiao Yuan endlessly, he had even more awe for her, given Xiao Yuan's talent for martial cultivation, her decisive kill or be killed attitude, and her status in the Dao Qing Sect, which filled him with boundless awe.

"Not going." Xiao Yuan's brow had already furrowed, she'd grown tired of it, what she wanted now was more of the feeling of holding Su Chen's hand. This feeling was an addiction, and she had no interest in shopping or anything alike.

Su Chen felt a bit sorry for Fang Chuanjian outside the door.

Yuan'er, so cold!

No wonder, with how exaggerated the Heavenly Cold Stage of the Heavenly Yin Body is?

If not for the special relationship between himself and Yuan'er, with his high position in her heart, even wanting to have a word with her would be as hard as ascending to the heavens?

Just as Su Chen thought, Fang Chuanjian was truly pitiful outside the door.

After all, he was the sole grandson of the Fifth Elder, and among the younger generation of the Dao Qing Sect, he was extremely outstanding, one of the best Nine-Star Disciples, with countless girls admiring him in their thoughts.

But his heart belonged only to Xiao Yuan, yet Xiao Yuan...

"Don't stand outside the door anymore. Don't come back to ask me again. Today, I don't want to go anywhere." Then, Xiao Yuan added, seemingly afraid that Fang Chuanjian would disturb her later on, so she warned him in advance; what's more bitter was that even with Fang Chuanjian standing outside the door, she felt cold and annoyed.

Su Chen's mouth twitched, poor kid at the door!

A goddess isn't someone you can chase whenever you want.

"Yes." Fang Chuanjian indeed felt like he wanted to die.

After Fang Chuanjian left, Xiao Yuan leaned closer to Su Chen, almost resting in Su Chen's embrace, "Su Chen, why do you seem to have an attraction, attracting me to want to be near you?"

It wasn't an illusion.

It was real.

Her Heavenly Sound Profound Energy, and the deepest subconscious in her heart, were desperately moving closer to Su Chen.

This closeness rendered her shyness and chill useless.

"Then just get close." Su Chen smiled, dominantly wrapping Xiao Yuan's delicate body in his embrace, "Yuan'er, I'll continue telling you stories from our past."

"Mmm." A tinge of longing and fascination appeared on Xiao Yuan's stunningly beautiful face.

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Su Chen left Xiao Yuan's room.

Because today, the entourage from the Dao Qing Sect would officially appear at Xiang Qianqing's ascension ceremony.

Xiao Yuan needed to show up with the Fifth Elder and Fang Chuanjian.

Su Chen couldn't stay by Xiao Yuan's side anymore.

The morning sun slowly rose.

Inside and outside the main hall of the War God Palace, since last night, martial cultivators from the War Ancient Sky have been continuously pouring in.

Martial cultivators from various regions of the War Ancient Sky, like the Black God Mountain Region, Purple Sea Domain, Yan Cang Domain, and more.

The main hall of the War God Palace, named War God Hall, is a symbolic building of the War God Palace, situated halfway up a gigantic mountain peak towering 39,900 meters high.

In front of the War God Hall is the Martial Training Field of the War God Palace, capable of accommodating over a billion people.

And today, early in the morning, the entire Martial Training Field was already packed with people.

It was tremendously lively.

This could possibly be the liveliest day in the history of the War God Palace.

Inside the War God Hall, various ceremonial items had long been set up.

The ascension ceremony today would have the most significant part being the bestowment.

Many martial cultivators of the War Ancient Sky fervently desire to ascend to the Great Luo Heaven, not only for their pursuit of the Martial Arts but also because once they ascend, if favored by any faction of the Great Luo Heaven, they would be granted precious gifts.

It's considered a welcoming gesture.

Joining a faction is somewhat like apprenticeship, with some bestowment involved.

Take the Dao Qing Sect, for example, bestowing Xiang Qianqing with some treasures, on one hand, to demonstrate the wealth and strength of the Dao Qing Sect and the Great Luo Heaven, and to encourage the determination of other martial cultivators within the War Ancient Sky to ascend, providing a continuous stream of fresh blood for the Great Luo Heaven.
