Chapter 150: You two are talking, so why did you drag me into it

~18 min read 3,579 words

That night, Shi Yingying was exceptionally excited.

Mansion Master Mu Qingrou was in the room next door; she was really afraid that Mu Qingrou would find out about this matter.

She knew that the Mansion Master had some interest in Li Chen; Li Chen was the only man the Mansion Master had been moved by in so many years.

If the matter spread out, how could she still mix in Zi Yun Immortal Mansion? What would the disciples of Zi Yun Immortal Mansion think of her?

But it was precisely this feeling, added to Li Chen's dominance, that caused Shi Yingying to start losing her mind; no matter what excessive demands Li Chen had, she agreed without hesitation.

The next day was not Li Chen's limit; it was time for the morning court.

In the inn, Mu Qingrou had rested quite well; early in the morning, she saw Shi Yingying, who was mentally exhausted but whose face had a luster.

"What's wrong with your eyes? Didn't you rest well last night? And why is there a strange smell on you?"

As the Mansion Master, Mu Qingrou still had to care about her own Elder.

She felt that Shi Yingying also didn't have it easy, always working hard for the affairs of Zi Yun Immortal Mansion.

Just like Shi Yingying persuaded her, she also felt that Shi Yingying was not young anymore and could indeed find someone to marry.

But this sentence made Shi Yingying even more afraid in her heart; she thought Mu Qingrou had seen through the clues.

But fortunately, Mu Qingrou was a sword fanatic and had no experience in matters between men and women, and didn't even know what the smell on her body was.

Shi Yingying could only find an excuse, saying that when she was meditating and resting last night, she discharged the filth from her body.

This explanation was relatively normal; Mu Qingrou only told her to cultivate normally and not overuse her meridians, which would lead to unnecessary damage.

Shi Yingying could only respond yes; apart from answering like this, she didn't know what to say.

She couldn't just tell all the tricks Li Chen played last night.

However, she also didn't expect that there was so much fun in it.

This made her look forward to it even more; of course, her guilt toward Mu Qingrou increased by a few points.

At this moment, Shi Yingying was thinking in her brain: How can I make the Mansion Master be taken down by Li Chen quickly? Then my sense of guilt will also be much less.

Many women in sects have similar thoughts to Lady Youlan; they have done such things and are afraid of being known, so they want to drag more people into the water.

This way, after the matter is exposed, others won't be able to say anything about her.

What Shi Yingying didn't know was that it was precisely because she thought this way that Li Chen would easily obtain the entire Zi Yun Immortal Mansion later.

After finishing breakfast, the two waited for Li Chen's arrival.

Thinking that she might obtain the Thousand-Blade Sword she dreamed of, Mu Qingrou was somewhat impatient, muttering about when Li Chen would come.

Shi Yingying comforted her, "His Majesty should have gone to the morning court; it is estimated that we will have to wait until noon."

At this time, Mu Qingrou asked a question in a moment of confusion: "How do you know His Majesty went to the morning court? Oh, that's right, he is His Majesty; I forgot."

Whether Li Chen went to the morning court or not, could Shi Yingying not know? They all came out of her room.

By noon, Li Chen finally came here.

Mu Qingrou felt that Li Chen also didn't seem to have slept well and asked with concern; Li Chen could only say that he was relatively busy, and this explanation made Shi Yingying somewhat evasive.

On the way to the Bai Lian Sect, Mu Qingrou hesitated, "Your Majesty, why not just forget it? I'm afraid doing this will not be very good for your reputation."

Mu Qingrou knew Bai Zhanfei's character; unless Li Chen used his status to snatch what others love, it was impossible for Bai Zhanfei to hand over the Thousand-Blade Sword.

But if that were the case, she would feel guilty after getting the Thousand-Blade Sword, and it would implicate His Majesty's reputation in being ruined.

She was thinking that it wasn't worth it for this precious sword.

If it were only her reputation that suffered, she wouldn't feel there was anything, but she really didn't want to make things too difficult for Li Chen.

"It's fine; I know Sect Master Bai; just leave it to me."

Li Chen heard Mu Qingrou say it was the Thousand-Blade Sword yesterday, and it was gifted to the Bai Lian Sect by a god.

His memory hadn't faded to the point of forgetting even such things.

He still remembered the last time he accompanied Chu Ruoyan to the expo; he encountered the boss of the blacksmith shop and the Master of the Bai Lian Sect competing.

He was chosen as the lucky one to go on stage and casually refined a weapon named "Separation Sword."

The situation at that time was like this: Li Chen wanted to show his sword intent to the blacksmith shop boss, Qiu Youneng, to let him know it was his strength that was powerful, not that broken weapon of his.

But a cultivator of Li Chen's level brandishing the Separation Sword, how could the Separation Sword withstand such powerful sword intent?

Originally, the crafting of the Separation Sword was aimed at low-end cultivators, and it didn't consider powerhouses of Li Chen's level using it.

So Li Chen could only modify it himself, which was to refine it casually, becoming a weapon with many sword blades.

Coincidentally, the material of that weapon was also very special, able to be sufficient after splitting.

It became the "peerless divine weapon" passed down by word of mouth by various sword-casting masters and sword cultivator powerhouses in the cultivation world of the Tian Ce Dynasty today.

Even to the point that after Mu Qingrou saw it once, she couldn't forget it, almost becoming her obsession and inner demon.

At that time, Li Chen didn't know how strong his refining technique was, because before he maxed out, he had been playing "single-player," not knowing the level of his peers.

Now it seems that his casual work is already the limit of his peers.

This is also the main reason why Master Wu of Tiger Crouching City could be so excited after obtaining the weapon refined by Li Chen.

This ability of Li Chen is even more terrifying than turning stones into gold.

The ancestor of the Li family also relied on these heaven-defying abilities to win the world.

Not many in later generations can do it, because they can't even cultivate to the Sage Realm; what the hell can they do?

Take the forbidden area of the Li Imperial Clan; there are many treasures left by the ancestors inside.

Perhaps these treasures are all supreme treasures of Heaven and Earth in the eyes of past emperors and the Imperial Clan.

Some members of the Li clan all take pride in obtaining these treasures.

The precious sword that the late emperor often carried on his back was taken out from the forbidden area.

Li Chen doesn't care, because he can produce these things casually.

Just like now, if it were something very difficult to handle, Li Chen would definitely not come out in casual clothes like this.

When he should use his status, he really wouldn't be vague.

It's just a Thousand-Blade Sword; it's not a big problem.

Mu Qingrou didn't know why Li Chen was so confident, but she kept following by his side.

She kept thinking in her brain about how she should handle it if a conflict occurred later; sect cultivators are relatively traditional, but they care a lot about face.

It was Li Chen's first time coming to the Bai Lian Sect; just arriving nearby, he heard the sound of "clang-clang" hammering iron coming from inside.

With Mu Qingrou's level appearing at the entrance, the disciples would naturally go in immediately to inform the Sect Master.

But this time Mu Qingrou felt very strange; why did the disciple at the entrance look like he had seen a ghost, stumbling as he ran in?

At this time, Mu Qingrou was still puzzled: Are they afraid I'm preparing to snatch the weapon? Am I that kind of person?

The next scene made Mu Qingrou even more unable to understand.

She saw Bai Zhanfei, who had received the news, running out like the wind, his eyes full of fanaticism and excitement.

It was just like a fan about to see his idol.

Mu Qingrou intended to say hello first, but this sword-casting madman Bai Zhanfei didn't have her in his eyes at all.

Bai Zhanfei suddenly walked in front of Li Chen, hurriedly bowed and saluted, his voice carrying undisguised respect and joy: "Master has arrived; the Bai Lian Sect is honored! I am Bai Zhanfei; I failed to welcome you from afar, and I hope Master will not blame me."

Nothing else, Mu Qingrou was completely dumbfounded.

Master? What Master?

It was her first time seeing Bai Zhanfei show such respect to a person.

Could it be that he and Li Chen know each other?

That's also strange; since they know each other, shouldn't he call Li Chen "Your Majesty"?

Mu Qingrou glanced at the Elder Shi Yingying beside her, seemingly wanting to seek an answer.

Shi Yingying was very helpless: How would I know this? If you want to ask me about Li Chen's endurance and strength, I can tell you a little.

Li Chen knew it would be like this, and he said without being too polite: "I came here to stroll today; you lead the way."

Hearing this, Bai Zhanfei was even more excited in his heart.

Because Li Chen's appearance, showing off on the stage at that time, the Bai Lian Sect disciples must have been able to.

So just now, when a disciple saw Li Chen, he went in directly to tell Bai Zhanfei.

Bai Zhanfei had been asking around everywhere during this period, but he didn't know where else there was such a sword-casting god in the Tian Ce Dynasty.

Now that the god has come, can he not be excited?

Bai Zhanfei hurriedly led Li Chen into the Sword-Casting Hall, ignoring his old friend Mu Qingrou.

Along the way, Bai Zhanfei introduced the history and achievements of the sect to Li Chen in detail.

Li Chen was not interested in these, but seeing the plaque that only large taxpayers had hanging in the main hall, Li Chen expressed satisfaction.

No matter what, he is also an emperor; he likes this kind of force that pays a lot of taxes; this looks much more pleasing to the eye. Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying looked at each other and followed in.

Following this, good guy.

Bai Zhanfei directly led them into the Sword-Casting Hall of the Bai Lian Sect.

You have to know, this kind of place is the core area of the Bai Lian Sect, surrounded by all kinds of rare treasures.

Let alone Mu Qingrou, even the disciples of the Bai Lian Sect were not qualified to come in.

But in Bai Zhanfei's view, these "secrets" were only for others; Li Chen was a sword-casting master of a higher level than himself; he was already very happy that Li Chen could come; where were there any secrets to speak of?

When everyone came to the exhibition stand where the Thousand-Blade Sword was placed, Bai Zhanfei looked at Li Chen with even more gratitude, then opened the sword box and said: "This Thousand-Blade Sword was gifted by Master that day; it is not only the treasure of our Bai Lian Sect, but also the divine weapon that will be in my heart forever!"

If others came, Bai Zhanfei would be afraid they would snatch it.

But this weapon was forged by Li Chen; at that time, Li Chen threw it to them casually, so he naturally wasn't afraid.

Li Chen didn't even have the intention to pick it up now.

!

At this time, Bai Zhanfei seemed to have discovered that there were two people following beside him.

So he said to Mu Qingrou: "Mansion Master Mu, this is the sword-casting god I mentioned to you yesterday."

Mu Qingrou: "..."

Mu Qingrou really wanted to say: You are introducing an egg; this person was invited by me, and I still need you, this old guy, to introduce him.

However, these words of Bai Zhanfei indeed made Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying shocked beyond words.

The Thousand-Blade Sword they couldn't get was actually forged by Li Chen?

And listening to these words of Bai Zhanfei, Mu Qingrou perceived that this old guy didn't seem to know Li Chen's true identity.

Mu Qingrou was experienced; she sorted out the current intelligence and had a rough understanding in her mind.

In her view, Li Chen must be a hidden forging master, and one of a very high level.

When he was strolling in the mortal world, he casually forged a weapon and gifted it to the Bai Lian Sect, which became a weapon that shocked the entire cultivation world.

Because he was strolling in the mortal world, he didn't expose his identity, so Bai Zhanfei didn't know he was the emperor.

But Bai Zhanfei's reverence for Li Chen was obvious.

To say something treasonous, his reverence for the emperor might not be as great as his reverence for Li Chen's "extra identity."

Since this is the case, then Mu Qingrou wouldn't expose Li Chen's identity.

Knowing the general idea, Mu Qingrou's favorability toward Li Chen went up by a few points.

As a sword cultivator at the Sage Realm, how could she not like a sword-casting master at the Sage Realm?

That is to say, as long as I become Li Chen's woman, then he will cast swords for me?

If this is the case, then she seems to be able to accept it happily.

It's not just because she was seen through, so she "helplessly" made a choice.

No matter how you think about it, anyway, this is a way of self-strategy.

"Sect Master Bai, do you still have that Separation Sword of yours?" Li Chen mentioned the main purpose of his coming this time.

That Thousand-Blade Sword had already been gifted to the Bai Lian Sect; specifically, it should be gifted to the head disciple of the Bai Lian Sect, Zhao Chong.

For this kind of treasure produced casually, Li Chen didn't have the mood to take it back; isn't it just forging another one?

But as the saying goes, a clever woman cannot cook without rice.

He knew what Mu Qingrou wanted, but Li Chen had to find ready-made materials first.

The specificity of the materials can make the weapon special.

If it weren't for the special material of the Separation Sword, it wouldn't be possible to craft the Thousand-Blade Sword.

Li Chen also thought about buying a Separation Sword himself and continuing to forge a Thousand-Blade Sword for Mu Qingrou.

But when it came to this, Bai Zhanfei was anxious; he said aggressively: "Master, you can take whatever you want from our sect, but if you give me money, that is the greatest insult to me, and it is also the shame of our Bai Lian Sect for thousands of years. If this spreads out, I will have no face to see the past Sect Masters."

Bai Zhanfei said that no matter what, he couldn't take money; in his view, Li Chen gifted such a precious Thousand-Blade Sword to the Bai Lian Sect, which was the honor of the Bai Lian Sect.

This is a priceless treasure; I couldn't afford to pay you even if I went bankrupt; how can you still give me money?

Bai Zhanfei even indicated that if Li Chen gave money, it would be better to stab him to death with a sword.

Li Chen was too lazy to argue with him and accepted a Separation Sword of good quality.

Bai Zhanfei knew what Li Chen was going to do; no matter what, Li Chen was "invited" by Mu Qingrou, and Mu Qingrou was a sword fanatic; Li Chen's purpose in coming here was very obvious.

Bai Zhanfei also wanted to admire the process of refining the Thousand-Blade Sword once more.

Li Chen used the same method to plate a layer of golden divine light on the Separation Sword.

Following Li Chen's magic power, the sword body continuously made crackling sounds.

The broken sword with only five sword pieces was continuously splitting, instantly turning into thousands of sword pieces.

Golden energy attached to each sword piece.

That sharp sword light was enough to make Heaven and Earth dim, and all things perish!

A Thousand-Blade Sword that made sword cultivators in the cultivation world go crazy was born.

Even if it wasn't the first time seeing it, Bai Zhanfei felt shocked every time; this is the gap between himself and the God of Forging!

In Bai Zhanfei's view, Li Chen had the means to turn decay into magic.

This move is enough to be divine in the forging world!

Perhaps only top forging masters know how powerful this move of Li Chen's is.

Mu Qingrou and Shi Yingying were both sword cultivators; the scene in front of them made them somewhat distracted.

This man is simply their dream man!

After the Thousand-Blade Sword was crafted, Mu Qingrou wanted to come over to take it.

But Li Chen put the weapon away and said, "We'll talk when we get home."

Just kidding, you are this special wind-attribute sword cultivator, and you run fast.

If you get the weapon and run away shyly, what should I do?

Come back to the Imperial Palace with me; wait for me to stamp you, and you have to serve me well and agree to my various demands, then I will consider giving it to you.

Wanting to get it so fast, how is that possible!

Want to snatch it? Sorry, I am not Bai Zhanfei; you really can't snatch it!

It is rare to be able to see the top female sword cultivator Mu Qingrou have that aggrieved look on her face.

Forming a huge contrast with her usual cold self.

The weapon was already in hand; Li Chen naturally took people away from the Bai Lian Sect.

Bai Zhanfei sent them out personally, sending them for a long way, and hoped that Li Chen would visit again.

On the way to the Imperial Palace, Mu Qingrou followed behind Li Chen, her heart very uneasy; as she walked, she became somewhat "retreated" and wanted to run.

Each time she was pulled back by Shi Yingying beside her; Shi Yingying said, "Mansion Master, you have to be brave; this is also a trial for you! His Majesty is a dragon and phoenix among people; how many women in the world want to enter the palace? You won't have this shop after passing this village!"

Shi Yingying, this gold-medal assist, was also playing better and better.

As long as she assists, Li Chen can complete the harvest.

The closer to the Imperial Palace, the more panicked Mu Qingrou became: "You say it lightly; why don't you try it."

Shi Yingying: "..."

How do you know I haven't tried it?

Isn't it because I tried it that I'm telling you this?

Shi Yingying felt that the Mansion Master was just being reserved now; it would be fine after taking that step.

Originally, Shi Yingying planned to send the Mansion Master to Li Chen's bedroom and then leave.

As a result, Li Chen also pulled her in.

In the end, Mu Qingrou discovered that the two of them had already had an affair.

Shi Yingying also explained: Not that early, just a little earlier than you.

There is one thing Li Chen can be sure of: the pressure-bearing ability of the Sage Realm is indeed very strong.

The next day, Lady Youlan, Lady Yuehua, and Dai Hongling arrived at the Imperial Capital one after another.

Lady Youlan and Lady Yuehua were definitely representing Tian Yan Shen Zong to attend this national celebration of the Tian Ce Dynasty.

What they felt surprised about was that Dai Hongling also came, and they even met when entering the city.

Dai Hongling indicated that the Sect Master of Qing Ming Immortal Sect, Yue Yang, who was her Taoist companion, refused to come no matter what, so she could only reluctantly come.

This explanation of hers was soon broken by Lady Yuehua: "You didn't even bring anyone else from the sect this time; I see you are in a hurry to go to the Imperial Palace to serve in bed."

Dai Hongling didn't show weakness either: "It sounds like you two brought someone; I'll serve in bed, so what? At least my Taoist companion agreed to let me come; do your Taoist companions agree?"

Lady Youlan: "..."

You two are talking, so why did you drag me into it?
