Chapter 550: Chapter 206: The Dragon Clan’s Treasure, Dragon Palace!_3
Fat Long had not yet finished speaking.
Chen Qiu, with an expressionless face, raised his hand to interrupt Fat Long, “Stop, don’t think about it anymore, this is even more preposterous. Brother will do as you said, let Fat Long marry your daughter.”
“Agreed, let’s follow the younger brother’s advice!”
After speaking, Ao Tian, excited, could no longer stay to chat with Chen Qiu. He immediately pulled Fat Long and headed deeper into Dragon Island, planning the wedding scene as they walked.
“Brother Fat Long, I think the scene must be grand, it must feel like Ten Thousand Clans coming to celebrate.”
“Eh, Brother Ao Tian, I think it would be best to marry when Brother Qiu breaks through to Void Refining. You see, when Ten Thousand Clans come to celebrate and all eyes are on us, Brother Qiu can preside over the ceremony sitting in the main seat right after his breakthrough to Void Refining, and it would just perfectly highlight…”
Sitting on the ground, Chen Qiu looked toward the two as they walked toward the depths of Dragon Island. The sound of Fat Long’s suggestions and Ao Tian’s constantly excited agreements faded as they walked farther away.
he sighed softly, stood up, and moved away from the noisy crowd to stand alone on the beach, leaning on the Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella, gazing at the horizon where the sea merged with the night, and the waves continuously crashed against the rocks under his feet.
The moist air mingled with the smell of the sea hit his face.
The world is such, he had grown accustomed to it since the time in Da Xia, love what may be.
The scholar approached him quietly, whispering, “Brother Qiu, is Chao Tian Sect planning to retreat on Dragon Island next?”
Chen Qiu casually nodded, “Probably for over a year.”
“I’ve been thinking of venturing out during this period. After the ‘Heavenly Strife’ version descended, many Heavenly Dao Secret Realms appeared on Xuantian Continent. I’m just one step away from Nascent Soul.”
“I want to seek my own opportunities, even if I encounter some dangers, with my brother here, I can quickly escape the worst.”
Before the scholar could finish articulating all the reasons he had thought of in advance,
Chen Qiu waved his hand with a smile, “No need to say so much; if you want to go, then go. Tomorrow I’ll have Black Dragon send you to Xuantian Continent.”
The scholar was briefly stunned, then with a solemn face he nodded, “Thank you, Brother Qiu.”
Then he turned and jogged away, preparing for tomorrow’s journey.
Chen Qiu watched the scholar’s departing figure and didn’t think much of it; it was very normal, obviously Fat Long’s opportunity made the scholar somewhat restless, wanting to try and see if he could encounter his own opportunity.
He felt that with the scholar’s talent in sword cultivation, going out to try might indeed allow him to find his own opportunities.
A night passed, and by the time the sun rose, the Chao Tian Sect disciples who had been drinking all night were now fast asleep on the beach. For cultivators, unless it’s spiritual wine of a particularly high grade,
ordinary spiritual wine wouldn’t really get a cultivator drunk.
But due to the joy of the previous day, they hadn’t dispelled the effects of the alcohol and had just gone with it.
Chen Qiu and the scholar were standing on the edge of Dragon Island, preparing to send the scholar to Xuantian Continent this morning. Meanwhile, Ao Tian was looking somewhat annoyed toward the distant seascape.
“Black Dragon, I don’t know where he ran off to last night.”
“Probably went off to play again.”
“This kid, never giving us peace of mind, has always been since he was young.”
“Brother, I’ll send the scholar to Xuantian Continent. Once Black Dragon returns from his frivolous adventures, help me catch him and don’t let him run off again. After he’s back, I need to properly deal with him.”
Chen Qiu nodded reluctantly, then looked at the scholar being swept up by a golden light, and waved with a smile, “Take care when you’re outside. If you encounter a danger you can’t avoid, remember to pull out the elder token.”
“There’s a seventy percent chance it will save your lives.”
“What about the remaining thirty percent?” the scholar asked impulsively.
Ao Tian looked helplessly at the scholar, “Chao Tian Sect has quite a few enemies on Xuantian Continent. The other thirty percent might mean you’ll face more severe challenges, or you might even be captured to threaten Chao Tian Sect.”
“Let’s hope such a melodramatic scene doesn’t happen.”
Ao Tian said somewhat bitterly.
“I really hate dealing with rescues. It took quite a bit of my energy to rescue Black Dragon back in the day!”
“Brother Qiu, rest assured,” the scholar looked earnestly at Chen Qiu, “if such a situation really happens, my brother and I will commit suicide on the spot; we definitely won’t cause trouble for Chao Tian Sect.”
Standing on the beach with the Heavenly Mechanism Umbrella, Chen Qiu couldn’t help but be amused, waving his hand to soothe them, “That’s not necessary; if it really comes to that, just try to stay alive. Once I get there, they’ll have to release you.”
“What if they don’t release us?”
“At that point, you can start your suicide, and I’ll go down there to join you.”
After sending off the scholar, Chen Qiu didn’t stay long on the beach. He returned to the mountain peak on the island, sat cross-legged on an oval rock, and entered a state of cultivation by rotating his mental method.
Recently, his Cultivation had been advancing too quickly.
He needed to consolidate his realm.
He still had two normal version ‘three choices’ entries he hadn’t selected, and he planned to make those selections soon.
Unknowingly, three days and nights had passed in cultivation.
Sitting cross-legged on the round rock, Chen Qiu breathed out a long breath of turbid air, his Cultivation Realm somewhat more stable now. With a further seven or eight days of effort, his realm would be completely secured.
In his case, possessing a twelve-grade Nascent Soul, even breaking through eight small realms seemed a bit unstable. For those with lower-grade Nascent Souls, continuously breaking through the fourth small realm without consolidation might start to see their Cultivation decline.
