Chapter 231

"This Seat wishes to see if those little rats who have been hiding in the shadows, fanning the flames, and attempting to reap the benefits without effort, still dare to continue hiding!"

"Let them all... get out before This Seat!"

Ning Chuan's voice, like divine thunder from the nine heavens, echoed throughout Brightness Peak!

It was filled with unchallengeable dominance and a grim killing intent!

Upon hearing this, the Menming Sect members on Brightness Peak all trembled, then their blood boiled with excitement!

This... this is too domineering, isn't it?!

He actually demands that all sects involved in the siege send their Sect Masters to kowtow and beg for forgiveness, and present all their secret manuals?!

This is truly unprecedented and will never be repeated!

They seemed to already see the glorious scene in the near future where the entire Central Plains Wu Lin would submit to Brother Ning Chuan's feet!

With such a powerful existence backing the Weiming Sect, why should they worry about the Weiming Sect not prospering?!

From now on, who dares to look down on the Weiming Sect?!

Dai Dai Qisi's status as Sect Master became as stable as Mount Tai at this moment; no one dared to question or disobey her in the slightest!

After Ning Chuan finished his instructions, that massive dragon-snake body rapidly shrank under the operation of the Heavenly Dragon Hundred Refinements Body.

Finally, it transformed into a length of about three meters, appearing even more condensed and majestic.

He was respectfully welcomed by Dai Dai Qisi, Xie Xiaofeng, and others into the most luxurious and most secret palace atop Brightness Peak.

This place was originally the residence and cultivation site for past generations of Menming Sect Masters; now, it naturally belongs to Ning Chuan.

Inside the palace, incense smoke curled from the censer, and a strange fragrance filled the air.

Ning Chuan coiled upon a huge jade bed crafted from thousand-year cold jade, his eyes slightly closed.

He did not immediately begin to cultivate.

Instead, with a thought, the Yitian Sword, which he had previously snatched from Master Jueyuan and which shimmered with grim cold light, automatically flew to his front, hovering in mid-air.

A stream of pure demonic energy surged from his Long Zhao, like fine tentacles, slowly drilling into the blade of the Yitian Sword.

He wanted to carefully study what mysterious qualities this legendary divine weapon possessed.

After a moment, a look of surprise flashed in Ning Chuan's eyes.

"As I expected, the material of this Yitian Sword is indeed extraordinary!"

"It actually contains a trace of extremely pure primordial Geng Metal Qi, and a trace of... water-attribute spiritual energy?"

"No wonder it is peerlessly sharp, slicing iron like mud, and carries a grim chill."

"This is absolutely a top-grade spiritual material for refining magic treasures! It's a pity that those mortals used crude forging methods to turn it into an ordinary mortal weapon; it is truly a waste of good material!"

Ning Chuan thought to himself.

He had already made up his mind that when he had time in the future, he would definitely re-refine this Yitian Sword, extract the primordial Geng Metal Qi and water-attribute spiritual energy from it, and integrate them into his own innate magic treasure, or refine them separately into a powerful water-attribute spiritual sword.

Just then.

A faint sound of footsteps came from outside the hall.

A Persian girl dressed in a pale yellow silk robe, with a clear and exquisite face and a weak, lovable temperament, walked in carefully, carrying a plate of freshly washed, fresh spiritual fruits.

It was Xiao Zhao, the daughter Dai Dai Qisi had previously left by her side to serve.

She gently placed the fruit plate on the jade table before Ning Chuan, then stood respectfully by the side, bowing her head, daring not to look directly at Ning Chuan's majestic dragon-snake body.

But her lively big eyes would occasionally steal glances at Ning Chuan, filled with curiosity, admiration, awe, and a trace of the special... expectation and closeness unique to a young girl?

She asked carefully, her voice as crisp and pleasant as a yellow oriole, yet carrying a barely noticeable tension:

"Brother... Brother Ning... I... my mother... she... she will be here very soon."

She knew that her mother was now a subordinate of this mysterious Dragon Island Lord.

And she herself seemed to have become this Island Lord's... maid?

Ning Chuan merely nodded faintly and said nothing more.

He did not have much ill will toward this simple-minded yet ill-fated Persian girl.

After a moment.

Dai Dai Qisi, wearing a magnificent purple palace robe, moved with lotus steps and gracefully entered the main hall.

She came before Ning Chuan, kowtowed respectfully, and spoke with a voice that was seductive to the bone:

"Your servant Dai Dai Qisi, greets Master!"

Xiao Zhao, standing aside, saw her mother, who was always proud and arrogant and did not even care for the envoys of the Bosizong Sect.

Actually perform this prostration of five limbs to the ground before this black dragon-snake, calling him "Master."

Her eyes immediately widened, her small mouth slightly open, her face filled with unbelievable shock and... a trace of confusion.

This... what exactly is going on?!

Immediately.

Dai Dai Qisi took out from her bosom a black magic treasure knife with an ancient design, a thick blade, covered in strange patterns, and emitting a heavy and domineering aura.

She respectfully presented it before Ning Chuan.

"Master, this is the Dragon-Slaying Magic Treasure Knife that has caused countless bloody storms in the Jianghu."

Upon hearing this, a glimmer of interest flashed in Ning Chuan's pale golden dragon pupils.

He extended his Long Zhao, and a stream of pure demonic energy instantly surged into the blade of the Dragon-Slaying Knife.

After a moment, a look of joy appeared on his face.

"Very good! Very good indeed!"

"The material of this Dragon-Slaying Knife is similar to that of the Yitian Sword; it is also a top-grade spiritual material rare in the world!"

"Moreover, what it contains is a supreme yang and yang... fire-attribute spiritual energy!"

"One yin and one yang, one water and one fire; if these two spiritual materials can be re-refined and integrated into my own dragon-snake essence blood and demonic energy."

"It will surely allow the forging of a magic treasure of boundless power, where water and fire complement each other, as a life-bound treasure!"

"Moreover, it may even reveal some mysteries of the laws of water and fire!"

Brother Ning Chuan was overjoyed in his heart!

This journey to Bright Summit was truly not in vain!
