Casually tossing the fist-sized bead into a nearby corner, where a palm-length Little White Snake was busily drilling in and out of the 'small mountain' made up of hundreds of Inner Cores, playing with endless delight.

"Ahhh, Chen Gou, when are we leaving here? Every day it's either killing monsters or killing monsters, I'm so sick of it! Can't you find someone for me to chop?"

"What, your level's higher now, and not only do you not call me master, you don't even call my name but start cursing me?"

"If I call you master, can you find someone for me to chop?"

"This desolate wilderness, where am I supposed to find someone for you?"

"I don't care, I want to chop someone, I just want to chop someone, ahhh, if you don't let me chop someone, I'll call you Chen Gou, Chen Gou, Chen Gou Chen..."

Cyan Pheasant was nagging away, suddenly sensing something and swooshed off again.

"Ahhhhhh!!!"

Chen Zhixing: "???"

Hearing the woman's scream, he finally was willing to tear his gaze away from the jade mirror, and upon turning towards the window, he was momentarily stunned.

Mo Qingyue... Her forehead was being pointed at by an Immortal Sword, and at the very center of her forehead, a bloodstain had already cracked open, with crimson drops trickling down along her nose bridge.

Chen Zhixing: "..."

Rubbing his forehead, Chen Zhixing sighed lightly.

"Cyan Pheasant, come back."

"No!"

"Hmm?"

With a swoosh, that creature directly burrowed into Chen Zhixing's body, who knows where she decided to hide!

"Sorry Qingyue, the Sword Spirit was just having a tantrum with me and accidentally hurt you."

"No... it's okay."

Mo Qingyue forced out a smile on her pale face, which coupled with the continuous trickle of blood from her forehead, somehow gave off a touch of tragic beauty.

In that moment, Mo Qingyue caught Chen Zhixing's gaze for a couple more seconds, then he stepped forward and gently brushed over the bleeding on her forehead.

"Let's stop the bleeding first."

"I..." Mo Qingyue had originally tried numerous ways, but even at the Nirvana Realm which allows for blood rebirth, she couldn't stop the small wound at her forehead.

Yet when she tried once more, the wound suddenly closed up.

This magical transformation left Mo Qingyue opening her mouth in surprise.

After thinking a moment, Mo Qingyue softly inquired, "Zhixing, have you been practicing swordsmanship lately?"

"Yeah, sort of."

Practicing how to maintain a peaceful mind amidst the torment of a chatty Sword Spirit, that could count as practicing swordsmanship, right?

"No doubt, that strike of yours just now had a hint of the intention to sever Longevity with one sword."

Halfway turning around to conceal the shock and jealousy in her eyes. Although she long knew Chen Zhixing to be this era's singular genius, she couldn't help feeling waves of sourness seeing that strike.

Mo Qingyue, who started practicing swordsmanship at five, has practiced for ninety-four years, yet only just now touched the doorstep of Sword Heart Clarity!

But this guy in front of her....

After quietly calming herself, Mo Qingyue suddenly grabbed Chen Zhixing and stared closely into his eyes, saying seriously, "Zhixing, you've already found your own path."

"Hmm?" Chen Zhixing blinked in confusion.

"If one sword can sever Longevity, then one sword can prove Longevity! Zhixing, the Sword Dao is also viable, at least, at least you can make it work!"

"Uh... I know, but Sister Qingyue, could you let go of my hand now?"

As he spoke, Chen Zhixing pointed to his now wrinkled sleeve that Mo Qingyue had grabbed, frowning unconsciously.

Little did he know, this moment left Mo Qingyue staring dumbfounded at him.

Simple.

Scholarly vibe.

Likes cleanliness.

Delicate features.

Exceptional talent.

Swordsmanship with Divine Communication!

Isn't that the way Mo Qingyue fantasized herself to look after achieving mastery in Sword Dao?

"Zhixing...."

A hand instinctively reached out to touch the face before her.

Just as she was about to touch it.

Zheng!

Sword light flickered at Mo Qingyue's fingertips and, along with the sting, thoroughly awakened this Saintess from the Celestial Saint Palace.

"Ah, sorry, sorry, Zhixing, I really apologize, I..."

"It's okay." Chen Zhixing shook his head and said, "By the way, Sister Qingyue, did you have something to discuss with me this time?"

"Ah, yes, I was so caught up... I forgot to tell you!"

The continuous stinging at her fingertips finally reminded Mo Qingyue of the purpose for her visit.

"Zhixing, did you know that now with your Chen Family leading, the eight Noble Families in Jiangnan have jointly locked down the boundary, prohibiting any outsiders from entering Jiangnan." Mo Qingyue smoothed her hair to ease the awkwardness.

"Huh?"

This time, Chen Zhixing was truly surprised.

"The Chen Family, locking down the Southern Domain?"

"Yes, the entire Southern Domain's only authorized passage is through the Flying Ship of the Celestial Saint Palace, and the teleportation array connection to the outside world has also been severed... Zhixing, I'm here on behalf of my martial uncle to ask, what exactly is your Chen Family attempting with this action, if this continues, the Celestial Saint Palace might have no choice but to take action against you all."

"I don't know."

"You don't know?"

"Should I know?" Chen Zhixing pointed to his own face, "I haven't been back for over two months, you've even sealed the Northern Domain teleportation array, even if someone wanted to inform me of family matters, they couldn't."

Mo Qingyue: "..."

Seems it's like that...

But you're the Patriarch of the Chen Family....

"So, are you indeed uninformed?" Unsure, Mo Qingyue asked once more.

Chen Zhixing directly rolled his eyes at her.

If he knew, how could he possibly allow his family to do this!
