Rejecting Qinglong Daoist's proposal is truly terrifying; it could get one killed.
Translation: "Rejecting Qinglong Daoist's proposal is truly terrifying; it could get one killed."
Rejecting Qinglong Daoist's proposal is truly terrifying; it could get one killed.
Chen Chuyang isn't the type who becomes unable to walk upon seeing a beautiful woman; whether enemy or friend, he doesn't entertain random thoughts. He already has plenty of women of all types, and really has no time to provoke more women.
Translation: "Chen Chuyang is not the sort who loses his way at the sight of a beautiful woman; whether enemy or friend, he does not indulge in random thoughts. Now he already has many women of all types, and he simply has no time to provoke more."
Moreover, Bai Heng Saintess is no ordinary woman; Chen Chuyang dares not provoke her, nor have too much contact—let Qinglong Daoist handle that. He just stays at home, enjoys the resources she brings, and focuses on his cultivation; everything else can be left to Qinglong Daoist to worry about.
Translation: "Moreover, Holy Maiden Bai Hang is no ordinary woman; Chen Chuyang dares neither provoke nor have too much contact with her—let Qinglong Daoist handle that. He, meanwhile, can stay at home in peace, enjoy the resources Bai Hang brings, and focus on cultivation; let Qinglong Daoist worry about the rest."
Qinglong Daoist also wants a permanent solution; obviously, this is the best, most direct, and safest approach—capture Bai Heng Saintess and make her one of his own. Then he can rest easy about her and the Tian Du Men, and even help Bai Heng seize the sect leadership to become the sect master of Tian Du Men.

Then he can rest easy about Bai Hang and Tian Du Men, and even help Bai Hang seize the sect master position to become Tian Du Men's sect master."
By then, their trade will reach a new level; the resources Bai Heng Saintess currently brings are merely a single mountain peak—if it were the entirety of Tian Du Men's resources, wouldn't that be even more terrifying? Chen Chuyang dares not even imagine it; the resources of a single sect in the outer realms are truly abundant, far surpassing the resources of their entire world.
Translation: "By then their dealings will reach a new level; the resources Holy Maiden Bai Hang currently brings are merely a single mountain peak—if it were the whole of Tian Du Men's resources, wouldn't that be even more terrifying? Chen Chuyang dare not think about it; the resources of a Tianwai sect are truly abundant, far richer than those of their entire world."
This gap is truly enormous.
Translation: "That gap is truly enormous."
This is also normal—just how vast the outer realms are; even the Mangshan Mountain Range alone is immensely broad, its extent unknown. Chen Chuyang has never traveled there, and his spiritual sense cannot penetrate it; at best it only reaches the surrounding area. According to his estimate, the area of the Mangshan Mountain Range alone is far larger than their world.
Translation: "This is also normal—how vast Tianwai is, just the Mangshan Mountain Range is immensely broad, who knows how far it stretches; Chen Chuyang has never traversed it, and his spiritual sense cannot penetrate it, at most only the surrounding area. According to his guess, the area of the Mangshan Mountain Range alone is far larger than their world."
Exactly how much larger, Chen Chuyang isn't sure, but it's certainly not just a little bit.
Translation: "Exactly how much larger, Chen Chuyang is unsure, but it is certainly not a little bit."
From this, one can infer that the territory controlled by Tian Du Men must be... isn't it?
Translation: "From this, one can infer that the territory controlled by Tian Du Men must be..."

Looking at it this way, possessing so many resources is only natural; Chen Chuyang finds himself yearning for the outer world, and also for the central region of Cangzhou, which will be incredibly glorious and immensely powerful.
Translation: "Seeing this, possessing such abundant resources is perfectly natural; Chen Chuyang, thinking of this, cannot help but yearn for the Tianwai world and also for the central region of Cangzhou, wondering how splendid and powerful it will be."
Would the powers located at the center also be this terrifying?
Translation: "Would the powers located at the center also be so terrifying?"
This is still just Cangzhou; according to what he knows, it is not yet the most prosperous and powerful region of the outer realms.
Translation: "This is only Cangzhou; according to what he knows, it is not yet the most prosperous and powerful region of Tianwai."
The more he learns, the more he realizes how mighty and terrifying the outer realms are; compared to their world, it amounts to nothing.
Translation: "The more he learns, the more he realizes Tianwai's might and terror; compared to their world, it amounts to nothing."
It's no wonder so many forces can easily suppress their world; alternatively, their world might merely be a secret realm, not a true world—if that's the case, everything makes sense.
Translation: "No wonder so many forces can easily suppress their world; or rather, their world is merely a secret realm, not a true world—if seen that way, everything makes sense."
How vast the outer realms are—I was simply ignorant and uninformed.
Translation: ""How vast Tianwai is—I was ignorant and narrow‑minded.""
Qinglian and Haoyang staying in the outer realms is the correct choice; once they are strong enough, we can let them go out to explore, which might benefit them.
Translation: ""Qinglian and Haoyang staying in Tianwai is the correct choice; once they are strong enough, we can let them go out to explore, which may benefit them.""
The outer realms are dangerous, and both inside and outside Cangzhou are dangerous as well, but this is the fastest way to cultivate them, with no alternative.
Translation: "Tianwai is very dangerous, and inside and outside Cangzhou is also dangerous, yet this is the fastest way to cultivate them, with no alternative."
It is also the quickest way for them to rapidly increase their strength and cultivation, accelerating their growth.
Translation: "It is also the fastest way for them to rapidly increase their strength and cultivation, accelerating their growth."
Chen Chuyang looked at his two sons, nodded in satisfaction; these two sons please him greatly, and in a few years they will have the strength to protect themselves, after which he can let them go out to experience the outside world—the more they see, the better for them.
Translation: "Chen Chuyang looked at his two sons, nodded in satisfaction; these two sons please him greatly. In a few years they will have the strength to protect themselves, then he can let them go out to see the outside world—the more they see, the better for them."
Rather than spending his whole life as a frog in a well, Chen Chuyang feels like he himself is such a frog; the more he learns about the outer realms, the more anxious and worried he becomes, for the outer realms are truly vast.
Translation: "Rather than spend a lifetime as a frog in a well, Chen Chuyang feels he himself is like a frog in a well; the more he learns about Tianwai and these things, the more anxious and worried he becomes, for Tianwai is truly immense."
This is the true world; Chen Chuyang glanced at Elder Xinran, flashed over to stand beside her, her face flushed as she softly said, 'Wasn't it Qinglong Daoist who told you to capture Bai Heng Saintess? This woman is excellent; if you were to capture her, it would bring us great benefit—perhaps you could give it a try?'
Translation: "This is the true world. Chen Chuyang glanced at Elder Xinran, flashed over and stood beside her. Elder Xinran's face flushed, and she said softly: "Didn't Qinglong Daoist tell you to capture Holy Maiden Bai Hang? This woman is excellent; if you capture her, it would bring us great benefit—you might give it a try?""
That's what she said, but why does her gaze carry killing intent?
Translation: "That's what she said, but why does her gaze carry killing intent?"
Chen Chuyang quickly yawned and said, 'Haha, you're overthinking it; I have no other thoughts.'
Translation: "Chen Chuyang quickly yawned and said: "Haha, you're overthinking; I won't have any other thoughts.""
'Bai Heng Saintess is merely our partner; don't listen to Qinglong's nonsense—it's not true.'
Translation: ""Holy Maiden Bai Hang is merely our partner; don't listen to Qinglong's nonsense—it's not true.""
Elder Xinran analyzed: 'Actually, I quite agree with what he said; I think Qinglong Daoist is right—Bai Heng Saintess is exceptionally outstanding. If we could capture her and then seize Tian Du Men, it would bring us enormous benefit. Later, people from our world could enter the outer realms and also infiltrate Tian Du Men, thereby hiding their identities.'

If we can capture her and then seize Tian Du Men, it would bring us great benefit. Later, people from our world entering Tianwai could also enter Tian Du Men, thereby hiding their identities.""
'We can rely on Tian Du Men to help us grow, providing a backing to evade those forces' pursuit; once we have grown, we can slowly seek trouble with them.'
Translation: ""We can use Tian Du Men to help us grow, providing a backing to evade those forces' pursuit; once we have grown, we can slowly seek trouble with them.""
'The Huang family is simply too weak; after all, it's just a clan—our people cannot enter it, and even if they could, they'd be targeted and excluded, possibly even discovered; but in Tian Du Men it's different.'
Translation: ""The Huang family is ultimately too weak; being a clan, our people cannot enter it, and even if they could, they would be targeted and excluded, possibly even discovered—whereas in Tian Du Men it is different.""
'If Bai Heng Saintess were to become the Saintess, it would be even more different.'
Translation: ""If Holy Maiden Bai Hang becomes the Holy Maiden, it would be even more different.""
'Chen Chuyang, you can give it a try; with your strength, you should be able to capture Bai Heng Saintess.'
Translation: ""Chen Chuyang, you can give it a try; with your strength, you should be able to capture Holy Maiden Bai Hang.""
'Others might encounter accidents, but Chen Chuyang's words are certainly without problem.'
Translation: "Others might encounter mishaps, but Chen Chuyang's words will surely be fine."
This person's charm is strong, unmatched by others.
Translation: "This person's charm is strong, unmatched by others."
It makes you unknowingly become infatuated with him, then like him; by the time you realize, it's already too late.
Translation: "It makes you unknowingly become infatuated with him, then like him; by the time you realize, it's already too late."
Elder Xinran is just like that; she hadn't felt this before, but when she realized it later, she wanted to refuse—it was already too late.
Translation: "Elder Xinran is just like that—she had no such feeling before; later, when she realized, she wanted to refuse, but it was too late."
'I support you, my husband.' Elder Xinran's final shout of 'husband' made Chen Chuyang's pupils shake; he stared in astonishment at the woman before him.
Translation: ""I support you, husband." Elder Xinran shouted the last "husband," Chen Chuyang's pupils shook, and he stared in astonishment at the woman before him."
He reached out, grasped Elder Xinran's hand, and caressed it, saying, 'Madam, shout it again.'
Translation: "He reached out, grasped Elder Xinran's hand, and caressed it, saying: "Wife, shout again.""
Elder Xinran gave him a glance, pulled her hand away, and chuckled, 'Only this once; you'd better hurry back, otherwise the Huanglong Snake side won't be able to wait.'
Translation: "Elder Xinran gave him a white look, pulled her hand away, and chuckled: "Only this once; you'd better hurry back, otherwise the Wild Dragon Snake won't wait.""
'You've been out this long; Hongxue and the others are surely waiting anxiously—you should hurry back to keep them company.'
Translation: ""You've been out this long; Hongxue and the others must be anxiously waiting—hurry back to keep them company.""
Chen Chuyang smiled and said, 'Madam, I want to spend more time with you.'
Translation: "Chen Chuyang smiled: "Wife, I want to spend more time with you.""
Elder Xinran wouldn't give him that chance, immediately driving him away: 'You, hurry up and leave.'
Translation: "Elder Xinran would not give him that chance, immediately driving him away: "You, hurry up and go.""
She brought Chen Chuyang to the teleportation array, helped him activate it, and then pushed him onto it.
Translation: "She brought Chen Chuyang to the teleportation formation, helped him activate it, then pushed him onto it."
Chen Chuyang didn't want to go, but having no choice, he had to step onto the array.
Translation: "Chen Chuyang did not want to go, but helplessly, he had no choice but to step onto the formation."
Soon after, light flared up and Chen Chuyang's figure vanished.
Translation: "Soon, light flared and Chen Chuyang's figure vanished."
Elder Xinran exhaled and said, 'Finally he's gone; I almost got bewitched by him.'
Translation: "Elder Xinran exhaled and said: "Finally he's gone; I almost got bewitched by him.""
'This man truly deserves to die; every time he makes my soul spin, and after a few more times I might not be able to hold on.'
Translation: ""This man truly deserves death; each time he makes my soul overturn, and after a few more times I might not be able to hold out.""
In the shadows, Qinglong Daoist stepped out and asked, 'Has the main body left?'
Translation: "In the shadows, Qinglong Daoist stepped out and asked: "Has the main body left?""
'He has left.' Elder Xinran felt nervous, afraid that his earlier muttering had been heard.
Translation: ""He has left." Elder Xinran felt panicked, fearing that her earlier muttering had been heard by him."
He dodged about, rather flustered.
Translation: "She dodged here and there, quite flustered."
Qinglong Daoist pressed his hands together and said, 'Elder Xinran, no need to be tense—I heard all your muttering just now; this true form of mine is truly formidable, and its lethality toward women is not ordinary.'
Translation: "Qinglong Daoist pressed his hand down: "Elder Xinran, no need to be tense; I heard your muttering just now. This main body of mine is truly formidable—its lethality toward women is not ordinary.""
'What do you think of my proposal?'
Translation: ""What do you think of that proposal of mine?""
He asked with a smile, his gaze seeking to see through Elder Xinran's heart.
Translation: "He asked with a smile, that gaze seeking to see through Elder Xinran's heart."
Elder Xinran replied indifferently, 'Do as you please; as long as you think it's okay, then it's okay.'
Translation: "Elder Xinran replied indifferently: "Do as you please; as long as you think it's fine, it's fine.""
'I don't mind; besides, Chen Chuyang isn't limited to just me as his woman—if he takes a liking to someone else, I can't stop him, right?'
Translation: ""I don't mind; besides, Chen Chuyang isn't exclusively my woman—if he takes a fancy to her, I can't stop him, right?""
Qinglong Daoren understood, but Xinran Zhanglao still had objections; Xinran Zhanglao just didn't dare to refuse directly.
