Chapter 289: Sword Pool

Betrothal gift?

Even Zi Yan was dazed.

Her face slightly blushed, she said, "No need, we're not really like that."

Qin Yang said solemnly, "How can this be a joke? And you say you're my fiancée; who would dare marry you in the future?"

Upon hearing Qin Yang's words, Zi Changsheng's eyes flashed.

He immediately put away the two immortal swords.

"Your marriage is settled like this; I also accept this betrothal gift."

Zi Changsheng said solemnly.

He also realized this point; since it's already been said that she is Qin Yang's fiancée, Zi Yan basically has no chance of marrying anyone else in this lifetime.

Not to mention Qin Yang's dignity; even if she dared to marry, no one would dare to marry her.

Qin Yang has now made a fearsome name for himself in the cultivation world.

Now he even killed Ning Qi, this Sǎnxiān, pushing his battle record to new heights.

He is now a walking killing machine, the strongest expert in Fanchén Zhong.

Moreover, he doesn't know what cultivation technique he practices, so he doesn't need to worry about Dao transformation and can continue to increase his strength.

Who would dare to compete with such a terrifying existence for a woman?

Zi Changsheng collected the immortal sword, thereby completely settling the matter between them.

Afterward, he handed one of the immortal swords to Zi Yan.

"Keep this immortal sword, refine it well; when you break into the Great Vehicle stage, you won't have to worry about Dao transformation."

Zi Changsheng said.

Zi Yan hesitated for a moment, but still accepted it.

The other immortal sword was given by Zi Changsheng to his own wife.

He possesses an immortal artifact; otherwise he wouldn't have cultivated to the Great Vehicle stage.

As one of the few Great Vehicle stage experts in Fanchén Zhong, Zi Changsheng clearly knows what an immortal artifact means to a cultivator.

Lin Xi and Zhu Qiang felt a little Xiànmù.

However, they didn't think much about it.

As long as they follow Qin Yang, who has an immortal artifact, becoming a Great Vehicle stage expert themselves is hardly a problem.

So, they weren't worried at all.

"By the way, Father-in-law, the Grand Elder has a problem; he's cooperating with the God Hunter's God Master, and this incident was orchestrated by the Grand Elder and the God Master."

Qin Yang said.

Upon hearing this, Zi Changsheng's heart jolted.

He nodded, his eyes flashing with cold light.

"Indeed, I suspected this matter was related to the Grand Elder; I never expected him to actually cooperate with the God Master, this demon."

Zi Changsheng's expression turned grave.

The Grand Elder's strength is already terrifying.

Now, even cooperating with the God Master, he feels immense pressure.

"Why don't I help you kill him now?"

Qin Yang thought for a moment and said.

Zi Changsheng shook his head and said, "The Grand Elder's strength is formidable; he is a Four Tribulation Sǎnxiān."

Upon hearing Zi Changsheng's words, Qin Yang's whole body shuddered.

The strength of a Five Tribulation Sǎnxiān is comparable to that of a True Immortal.

A Four Tribulation Sǎnxiān, even if not equal to a True Immortal, is not far behind.

"It's not impossible to kill him."

Qin Yang thought for a moment and said.

Zi Changsheng gave Qin Yang a surprised look, shook his head, and said, "Don't take the risk."

Qin Yang said nothing.

Indeed, it is somewhat risky.

If he fights desperately, he naturally has a chance to slay his opponent.

But Qin Yang would also suffer severe injuries.

That would be more loss than gain.

"The future lies with you, not him; he is a Four Tribulation Sǎnxiān, but to improve he needs a long time, whereas you are different—perhaps in a few years, or even a year, you could break into a higher realm. There's no need to risk your life against him now; rest assured, as long as he remains within Shu Mountain, he cannot act recklessly, and as long as I remain the Headmaster of Shu Mountain, I have means to restrain him."

Zi Changsheng was quite confident.

Qin Yang's heart stirred.

He immediately understood that Zi Changsheng still had other means; that was his trump card.

"Alright, when the time is ripe, I'll kill him."

Qin Yang nodded.

"You may go back now; Ning Qi is dead, the two immortal swords have changed hands, and they no longer pose a threat to me, so you can rest easy."

Zi Changsheng laughed.

Even a Four Tribulation Sǎnxiān, as long as he is on Shu Mountain, he still has the strength to fight and can suppress the opponent.

Under normal circumstances, a Sǎnxiān would not choose to fight to mutual destruction with a person.

Just now, when the Grand Elder faced Qin Yang's fighting spirit and chose to retreat, it was already clear.

Okay, if there's any matter, father-in-law will just notify me; if I really can't resolve it, I'll try to contact my master.

Qin Yang said with a smile.

When mentioning Baiyun, Qin Yang grinned.

His strength isn't his reliance; his master is.

Even now, Qin Yang doesn't know what level his master's cultivation has reached.

But one thing is certain: at the very least, it surpasses the second level of the Profound Technique they cultivate.

And the third level of the Profound Technique can be matched to a True Immortal.

Such strength could sweep across the world.

Zi Yan was somewhat reluctant, but she still went back with Qin Yang.

She knew very well that Shu Mountain is now a place of right and wrong.

Staying here would only become her father's weakness.

In the Shu Mountain Secret Realm.

Nie Yun stood before the Grand Elder, his face extremely grim.

"Grand Elder, why don't you make a move? With your strength, taking down Qin Yang isn't difficult at all."

Nie Yun said.

The Grand Elder had silver hair flowing down; his appearance looked like someone in his twenties, with sword-like brows and starry eyes, his features almost flawless, perfect as if carved.

Hearing the Second Elder's words, the Grand Elder didn't even lift his eyelids, he said lightly: "If I go all out, I'm confident I can capture Qin Yang, but if Zi Changsheng makes a move, can you stop him?"

"He's merely a Mahayana stage cultivator; I am a Sǎnxiān, so blocking him should pose no problem."

Nie Yun said arrogantly.

Although he greatly Xiànmù Mahayana stage experts, because the Mahayana stage means there is hope, a greater chance to reach higher levels.

However, the strength of the Mahayana stage, even late Mahayana, still has some gap compared to a Sǎnxiān.

If Nie Yun were to deal with Zi Changsheng, he would be confident.

"If he uses the Sword Pool, how would you block it?"

The Grand Elder asked.

Hearing the two words "Sword Pool", a hint of solemnity flashed in Nie Yun's eyes.

The reason they want to force Zi Changsheng to step down is mainly because of the "Sword Pool".

Otherwise, even though Zi Changsheng is a Mahayana stage expert, they would have long ago directly used force to make him step down; there wouldn't have been all these complications.

"Wait a bit longer; there will still be opportunities."

The Grand Elder gave a light smile.

Nie Yun, however, was somewhat anxious, saying: "What I'm worried about is Qin Yang; he's too monstrous—who knows how strong he'll become if we wait longer, and he's still so young."

The Grand Elder fell silent, then chuckled and said: "The person who should be most anxious right now probably isn't us."

Nie Yun's heart stirred.

He somewhat understood the Grand Elder's meaning.

"That's right; the one who most wants Qin Yang dead now should be the God Lord—let him have a headache."

Nie Yun felt a bit of schadenfreude.

The Grand Elder glanced at him, couldn't help but secretly shake his head: "This idiot, just because the God Lord has a headache doesn't mean we don't have to worry too."

Qin Yang is on Zi Changsheng's side.

Besides, he couldn't be bothered to explain to the idiot.

Some cultivators, although talented in cultivation, after a long time become as simple-minded as an idiot, their minds stiffening.
