Chapter 641: Elder Xinran's Peculiarity

With Xinran Zhanglao's words, Chen Chuyang knew this trip to Spirit Sword Sect was not in vain; besides the benefits he had already gained, Xinran Zhanglao had promised more, and Chen Chuyang naturally would not refuse.

The importance of the spirit vein left him no room to refuse; other things he could do without, but the spirit vein Chen Chuyang must have. Longshe Shan wants to fully advance, to satisfy his future cultivation, it must merge with a spirit vein, only then can it be satisfied.

Longshe Shan's spirit vein is too low; cultivating it into a high-grade spirit vein would require enormous time and resources, impossible to achieve in a short period; even if Chen Chuyang invested many benefits, it could not be quickly improved.

Being able to repair it to this point is already difficult, and Chen Chuyang is fortunate; if it were someone else, they might not succeed and could make the spirit vein even worse.

Xinran Zhanglao also knows what Chen Chuyang wants; running around lately, isn't it just for the spirit vein?

Targeting the Heavenly Heart Sect is nothing but coveting its spirit vein and all its internal good things; not only him, Spirit Sword Sect also wants it, and the Yin Gui Sect has long been eyeing it covetously.

In this world, all powers have grudges against the Heavenly Heart Sect and want to seize it; resources, territory, techniques, etc., are important reasons; even a little benefit can fatten other forces.

Especially the Great Qi Dynasty, which wants to destroy the Heavenly Heart Sect madly; for many years the Great Qi Dynasty has been suppressed by the Heavenly Heart Sect, unable to truly govern itself, even the selection of the next Qi emperor must consult the Heavenly Heart Sect; the former Great Qi Dynasty was like this, this generation, upon reaching Qi Ruohua here, has merely changed.

Or rather, the Heavenly Heart Sect wants to intervene, but they are too late; this has become a settled matter; by the time they reach the capital, it's a done deal, hard to change.

"I will definitely find a way to fulfill what I promised you."

Xinran Zhanglao again promised, spirit veins are scarce; there are only a few in this world.

Wanting to obtain one is not easy; even the Heavenly Heart Sect's spirit vein is not simple to get.

After this battle, Spirit Sword Sect's strength has been seen by many forces, which will surely give them other ideas.

"Chen Chuyang, may I ask you for a favor?"

"What favor?"

Chen Chuyang had a guess in his heart; it's probably about Lingjian Zhenren's matter, but he would not directly agree.

Xinran Zhanglao truthfully said, "My senior brother's soul has been suppressed by him; can you?"

Regarding the senior brother's situation, Xinran Zhanglao examined it; it is very troublesome, unable to release the senior brother's soul.

That person is very cautious and also smart, occupying the body, unwilling to yield.

Xinran Zhanglao currently has no clue, and wants to ask Chen Chuyang to take action.

"This is not easy."

"I know it's not easy; once accomplished, there will certainly be a reward."

"Like that." Chen Chuyang lowered his head to think, did not answer immediately, mainly because this matter is truly difficult, not that he is deliberately making excuses.

After examining Lingjian Zhenren's body and soul once, they discovered a serious problem: that person's soul and body have fused, the fusion deeper than they thought.

Moreover, he has begun to seize control of Lingjian Zhenren's soul, and in turn, fusing with Lingjian Zhenren's soul.

In short, they aim to complete the fusion; once successful, he will be the true Lingjian Zhenren, with no distinction.

Trying to separate them is highly difficult; Chen Chuyang has little confidence.

If he were to let him kill Lingjian Zhenren, Chen Chuyang could do it; but if the goal is to separate them and annihilate that person's soul, the difficulty is truly great.

"You also have no way?"

"For now I have no clue; perhaps you could try, maybe you can let him regain control of his body."

Chen Chuyang proposed his idea: "As long as Lingjian Zhenren's soul regains control of the body, he will naturally think of a way to deal with that soul."

Using himself to deal with the intruder is the best and most appropriate method.

Xinran Zhanglao frowned: "How should we do it to let my senior brother regain control of his body?"

"I don't know." Chen Chuyang shook his head.

This is not within his scope; they need to do it themselves.

As for how to do it, it's up to them.

Some matters, Chen Chuyang is not good at intervening, nor at speaking about.

Within Spirit Sword Sect, there are likely some divine abilities.

Xinran Zhanglao is so smart; he should understand his meaning.

"Really no other way?"

"No."

Xinran Zhanglao asked: "Then can I not let him voluntarily leave my senior brother's body?"

Chen Chuyang spread his hands, smiled, and said nothing.

This is the best method, but how to achieve it?

This is a problem, a big problem.

"You can try."

"Can you help me?" Xinran Zhanglao walked over, his eyes turning gentle.

Like a helpless woman, …… it shocked Chen Chuyang.

Unexpectedly, this woman also has such a side, which is not like the Xinran Zhanglao Chen Chuyang knows.

"My senior brother used to treat me very well; our relationship was also good, like father and daughter."

"Everything I have is taught by my senior brother; if not for him back then, I might have died outside."

"Back then, my senior brother brought me up the mountain, allowing me to cultivate; I have today thanks to my senior brother."

"Now, my senior brother has met with misfortune; as his junior sister, how could I not save him?"

Bending over, he pleaded: "Please, Chen Chuyang, help me."

Chen Chuyang looked at the woman before him, sighed: "Xinran Zhanglao, it's not that I won't help you, but I truly have no way; let me say this: their souls and bodies are fused together, wanting to separate them is unlikely."

"Once action is taken, it will surely cause some bad reactions, such as the soul scattering and the spirit dissipating."

"If that person's soul were willing to detach on its own, it would be good for both, but do you think he would do that?"

"Impossible."

"Once detached, that person's soul will die."

Xinran Zhanglao will not let him go, and the other members of Spirit Sword Sect will not forgive him either.

In this situation, he cannot leave.

Either we die together, or we live together; that is his choice.

"I..." Xinran Zhanglao gritted their teeth, eyes turning red.

"I can't bring myself to do it—he is my senior brother."

That senior brother, who is like a father to her, would never hurt her at any time; she cannot bring herself to harm him.

Xinran Zhanglao truly cannot bear this consequence.

She wants her senior brother to survive; this has always been her need in battle.

Then I have no choice.

Chen Chuyang spread his hands; it's too difficult to do.

Besides this, there is no other way.
