Chapter 262: with translation of chapter title

After looking for a long time, it was still the same, a hazy blur.

This is completely different from what she had predicted before she came; Chen Chuyang's age, and his cultivation in Longshe Cheng, a border town, is not high—at most just Core Formation—but she didn't expect that she was wrong.

She was completely wrong, unable to see through his cultivation at all; within Core Formation, she guessed it was a false core, not an internal core, certainly not Golden Core cultivation; the person before her was like a mist, impossible to determine; when they shook hands just now, they were probing each other, and Chen Chuyang effortlessly broke through her defense—if she hadn't let go in time, she would have been seen clearly.

After so many years, this is the first time she's encountered such a situation; the few people who can make her unable to see through are all either powerhouses of this realm or old monsters.

I don't know why Princess Yusu has come to my Longshe Shan.

Chen Chuyang poured tea, invited the two to drink, and with his other hand soothed the black goat's head, smoothing its messy black fur.

The black goat enjoyed the soothing; the scene was strange, yet quite ordinary.

Princess Yusu stared at Chen Chuyang, the moonlight on her body still hanging there, not loosened.

Actually, in Chen Chuyang's eyes, they're all the same; this moonlight couldn't block his gaze, and his eyes saw through her disguise.

The woman is very beautiful, all white as jade, her skin like a bright moon.

That face is also very beautiful, full of feminine charm—something Shang Hongxue lacks and something Jing Yuheng as a woman cannot match; true feminine charm, every gesture attracts men's gazes, and such a woman is not only alluring to men—women who see her are likewise drawn.

An Eldest Princess, being so beautiful, would make many people covet her; no wonder she needs to use moonlight to conceal herself.

Is it because of her cultivation technique? Or her innate nature? Hard to tell; Chen Chuyang looked for a while, then stopped looking at her.

Jing Yuheng knew the two had exchanged blows; Princess Yusu didn't come for nothing—she likely suffered a loss, which is why she's so quiet.

"Our Highness has come this time to recruit you, Daoist Chen Chuyang."

Jing Yuheng spoke, simple and direct, without much nonsense.

Princess Yusu turned her head in surprise; she hadn't spoken yet.

His gaze swept over Jing Yuheng; Jing Yuheng nodded at her, indicating she could relax.

"Recruit me? Are you sure?"

Jing Yuheng earnestly said: "Our sincerity is full; the Highness personally came from the capital to recruit you, Daoist Chen Chuyang; you are the first to make the Highness travel far to recruit you; following our Highness, wealth and honor are indispensable, resources abound; whatever the Highness possesses, we can give you a share."

"Staying in Longshe Shan is not good for you; whatever spirit stones and spirit medicines you need, as long as you speak up, the Highness can help you find them, however much you want."

"By then, the Chen clan will also rise with you; anyone who follows our Highness, be they person or clan, will be promoted."

"Daoist Chen Chuyang, you can consider it."

Jing Yuheng said a lot in one breath, all benefits, also including their promises.

What can be given is a lot, but the conditions are also high.

This treatment is unique to Chen Chuyang.

Princess Yusu interjected: "As long as you want it, this Highness can give it to you."

Weapons, elixirs, spirit medicines, or spirit stones, etc.; even high-level cultivation techniques, she can give to Chen Chuyang.

As long as this person follows her back and becomes her subordinate, in the future, what worry does the Great Qi Dynasty have that it won't be hers?

Those people who want to contend with her are still immature.

Chen Chuyang's strength, Princess Yusu greatly covets; having such an expert guarding her back, even her father the emperor, she need not fear.

As for those sects, she need not worry even more.

"Daoist Chen Chuyang, say whatever you want."

You can set the conditions as you like; as long as you can follow me back.

Longshe Shan is not suitable for Chen Chuyang.

Longshe Cheng is too small, with no future to speak of.

The capital is where he should go; that place gathers the world's talents, the talents of all major sects, and all the world's talents will gather in the capital.

People from beyond the heavens also descend; the capital is a place of turmoil.

That position will become vacant.

She wants that position; she wants to become the emperor of the Great Qi Dynasty.

Such an expert as Chen Chuyang must be recruited; even if we can't recruit him, we must not let others recruit him.

Princess Yusu thinks highly of Chen Chuyang; such a person is not someone from the major powers; whatever she can give, she can give.

In the capital, those families, those strong ones, all have their affiliations.

Not many are willing to stand on her side, and no one thinks she can sit in that position.

Jing Yuheng is one of her capable assistants.

They believe that women can also become a realm of their own.

Chen Chuyang looked at the two women, his gaze landing on Princess Yusu, shaking his head: "I will not leave Longshe Shan."

"I appreciate your goodwill, but I have no interest in those matters, nor do I want to get involved in your affairs."

"As for resources, I don't need them for now."

"If I lack resources, I can kill a few Tianwai people; they have plenty of resources on them."

The death of Fifth Heavy Mountain and the death of Du Xuzi brought him quite a few good things.

These resources are enough for him to cultivate for several years.

Also the resources earned from the Wild Dragon Snake cave heaven, the corpse of the Wild Dragon Snake, are enough for him to squander.

Now he only needs to cultivate in peace, properly raise his cultivation; other matters, he doesn't want to bother with.

The capital, with its shifting winds and clouds, is not something he can interfere with.

Besides, Chen Chuyang has no interest in those schemes and plots; he'd rather stay in Longshe Cheng farming and raising fish.

Accompanying Shang Hongxue, to live his own happy life—wouldn't that be good?

Insisting on bringing trouble upon himself, such foolishness—Chen Chuyang would not do it.

Princess Yusu anxiously said: "Daoist Chen Chuyang, you need to think clearly; some things, even if you don't want to get involved, you cannot stay out of them."

"Since you killed Du Xuzi, you can no longer stay hidden."

In this world, many people are watching you.

Chen Chuyang spread his hands, indifferent: "Whatever, let them come; as long as they dare to come, I dare to kill."

Come one, kill one; come two, kill a pair.

No matter who, if they enter Longshe Shan without my permission, I will make them know what despair is.

It just depends on whether they dare to come.

Killing intent, bursting forth.

In an instant, Longshe Shan shook.

The moon in the sky also trembled.

Princess Yushu and Jing Yuheng flew a few meters away; that aura, that killing intent, left them both silent.

Unable to resist, they had not the slightest strength to resist.

This aura is too powerful.

Feeling it up close, Princess Yushu and Jing Yuheng exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with shock.
