With my unparalleled talent, I can reach the pinnacle on any path; it’s effortless to practice any sword technique.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, and about the Nectar Sovereign’s divine remains experiment — if you can withdraw, try to do so as soon as possible. Several sovereigns are already paying attention to the conflict between the Ten Thousand Methods and Harmony Sects; the water here is too deep…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While thinking, Bai Zhenzhen listed one by one the things she had worried about and considered recently, as if afraid Zhang Yu might take a wrong step and fall into a trap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though she still had much more to say, with time limited, she could only hurry to speak out what she considered most important, while tightly suppressing her emotions deep within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the video recording, Bai Zhenzhen let out a breath. The light smile disappeared from her face, and she said coldly to Wen Wuyai in front of her, “I’m done.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Bai Zhenzhen’s sword intent surged inside her like a suppressed volcano, constantly enduring the high pressure within.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because while recording the video just now, Bai Zhenzhen had been harboring a thought, yet she kept suppressing it and never spoke it out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Have Yu cultivate the Extreme Emotion Sword Dao with me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, Extreme Emotion Sword Dao is a heretical path. I’ve already set foot on it and can’t turn back, but you, Yu, must not follow this path either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yu has a bright future ahead; how could he cultivate Extreme Emotion Sword Dao?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fluctuating emotions kept swaying the sword intent within Bai Zhenzhen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She suddenly raised her head and looked at Wen Wuyai before her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, several scarlet sword qi materialized out of thin air and fiercely slashed toward Wen Wuyai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amid crackling sounds, just as the sword qi was about to graze Wen Wuyai’s face, he let out a low shout, formed his fingers into a sword, and broke apart the sword qi one by one at close range.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching the dissipating sword qi, Wen Wuyai sighed lightly and said, “Zhenzhen, you almost scratched my face just now. This is a new one I just made yesterday.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lately, after every video recording, your emotional fluctuations have been a bit intense.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zhenzhen curled her lips and said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Wuyai shook his head and sighed, “I’ve recorded quite a few videos for you during this time and also delved deeply into the intelligence on Extreme Emotion Sword Dao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“From what I’ve observed these days… your feelings toward Zhang Yu are not pure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zhenzhen glared at him and said, “What nonsense are you talking? Zhang Yu is merely the resource for my cultivation of Extreme Emotion Sword Dao. Like you, I only covet his body at most and want to use him to aid my cultivation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Am I talking nonsense?” Wen Wuyai smiled slightly, dodging the sword qi that kept materializing around him, and continued, “Bai Zhenzhen, what you call coveting his body?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You are clearly a believer in sterilization cultivation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m almost too embarrassed to say it… You’ve actually fallen in love with him — it’s a descent into true love, a demonic possession. If you keep this up, you’ll be ruined, you’ll be devoured by the Extreme Emotion Sword Dao.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Keep talking nonsense and I’ll tear your mouth apart!” Bai Zhenzhen shouted in anger. Several scarlet sword qi slashed directly inside Wen Wuyai’s mouth, from inside out, instantly producing a series of clanging strikes in his mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Wuya's seven orifices spat out streams of green smoke, and his small tongue kept lolling out, trembling incessantly from pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zhenzhen glared at Wen Wuya and said, \"Wen Wuya, what crap about true love? If you dare to use such nonsensical things again to insult the brotherly and motherly bond between me and Yuzi, next time it won't just be your face getting cut.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You go. I need to continue training and prepare for the Top Ten Tournament.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as I can achieve the Grand Slam and receive an immortal gate-level technique, then Master will have no reason to keep me locked up anymore.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zhenzhen silently resolved in her heart: \"Whether righteous path or evil path, as long as I'm damn strong enough! I will definitely be able to walk through it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Wuya thought to himself: \"Has she become angry from shame? That's right. If I were like Zhenzhen, unable to restrain my evil thoughts and fallen into true love, I would probably be too ashamed to show my face like her, fearing the ridicule of the world's heroes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1039,"2026-05-29T04:54:59.518Z","2026-06-01T04:29:12.818Z",1,"deepseek-v4-flash","48c3b0943f4a6c153e6ffe92dd8867ba7134b91e080146479b299e5f8f6df647","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-490","no-money-what-cultivation-chapter-488",711,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fno-money-what-cultivation-cover.jpg"]
