Chen Tianwen is humiliated by his fiancée, dragged a thousand miles behind a carriage, mocked by the entire city, and the Chen family loses all face.

While serving as a slave at the Divine Sw...

Chapter 896 Do you know the Human Emperor?

Chen Tianwen felt more and more uneasy. Fairy Lanxin was a powerful immortal lord and the sect leader of Chaosheng Sect. How could she possibly act like a little girl?

Although Chen Tianwen was very confident in his appearance, he was not so narcissistic as to think that Fairy Lanxin was behaving this way because she had feelings for him.

Moreover, in this Xuanxian Realm, countless immortals have pursued Fairy Lanxin.

Among them were many powerful clans and immortal lords, but they were all turned away by Fairy Lanxin's coldness.

So although Chen Tianwen didn't want to pry into Fairy Lanxin's privacy, he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity!

Do you really want to hear it?

To Chen Tianwen's surprise, Fairy Lanxin looked at the stream with a resentful expression and spoke.

Chen Tianwen hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said:

"I want to know, otherwise I'll be agonizing over this for a long time."

"Alright, but you have to keep it a secret for your sister. And in exchange, you have to answer one question for me."

Lan Xin Fairy smiled again, but this smile gave Chen Tianwen a bad feeling. He had too many secrets. Although he trusted Lan Xin Fairy enough, there were some things that he should not let her know.

"Then forget it, I'll just guess myself."

Chen Tianwen shook his head, rejecting Fairy Lanxin's suggestion.

"That's not up to you, but don't worry, I'm not that curious about your secrets. I just want to ask about your relationship with the Holy Cloud Sect."

Fairy Lanxin was clearly a little angry. After all, she had finally managed to open her heart to Chen Tianwen, so how could she allow him to refuse?

Chen Tianwen breathed a sigh of relief. However, he could speak about the Holy Cloud Sect's affairs, so he addressed Fairy Lanxin:

"What does Sister Lan want to know? I can answer you first."

"Well, I didn't mean to eavesdrop, but from your conversation with Xue Shu just now, I seemed to hear that you should be a mortal enemy of the Holy Cloud Sect. So why would you go to Danwang City to cause trouble with Cui, the Holy Envoy of the Holy Cloud Sect?"

Fairy Lanxin asked, no longer looking at the stream, but staring intently at Chen Tianwen.

Chen Tianwen chuckled. It seemed that as his reputation spread, rumors about his close relationship with Cui Shengshi would also become the subject of much discussion.

Chen Tianwen even felt that this might be Cui Shengshi's intention, so that he could be implicitly placed on the front line of the Holy Cloud Sect.

Since Fairy Lanxin asked, Chen Tianwen wanted to take this opportunity to explain himself. Although he didn't care about other people's gossip, he didn't know why he wanted to clarify things regarding Fairy Lanxin's words.

Chen Tianwen gathered his thoughts and spoke to Fairy Lanxin:

"Sister Lan, do you know about the Nether Serpent Clan and the Xuan Turtle Clan?"

Fairy Lanxin nodded. Although the Flowing Wind Domain was far from the Dry Domain, as the sect leader of the Chao Sheng Sect, Fairy Lanxin would pay attention to the various forces in the Xuanxian Realm. So she spoke:

"I've heard that you once helped the two clan leaders refine elixirs, but what does that have to do with your affair with Envoy Cui?"

Chen Tianwen smiled and explained:

"Sister Lan knows about the Xuan Turtle Clan and the Nether Serpent Clan, so she naturally knows that both clans are descendants of the ancient divine beast Xuanwu. And the Holy Cloud Sect has been coveting the inheritance of the divine beast Xuanwu for quite some time!"

Fairy Lanxin nodded, but she also frowned.

Chen Tianwen continued, "..."

"And it was the Holy Envoy Cui who was sent by the Holy Cloud Sect to explore the Xuanwu Secret Realm! The reason I helped the Holy Envoy Cui was because I made an exchange with him. I also wanted to enter the Xuanwu Secret Realm, so the Holy Envoy Cui kept me by his side."

"As for the matter of Danwang City, it was all a setup by Envoy Cui!"

Fairy Lanxin was an intelligent person by nature. Although Chen Tianwen had concealed many details, she was still able to guess some of the general idea based on her knowledge. So she spoke up:

"You mean you were only pretending to help Envoy Cui? But you really did give him the Nine-Turn Creation Pill. And I heard you even helped him refine a elixir to remove the aftereffects!"

"Sister Lan seems to know quite a bit. But it's all just a temporary measure! I'm not strong enough right now, but it won't be long before I can take not only Envoy Cui, but the entire Holy Cloud Sect for granted!"

Chen Tianwen sneered. He now possessed all five elements, and the Holy Cloud Sect was merely a stumbling block for him at the moment. He would make them repay him tenfold in the future for what he was paying now!

Fairy Lanxin looked at Chen Tianwen in surprise, not because of Chen Tianwen's bold words just now, but because Chen Tianwen's words just now were too similar to those of that person from the past!

Chen Tianwen didn't notice what Fairy Lanxin was thinking. He assumed her surprised expression was because of his boastful words. However, Chen Tianwen didn't want to explain. He simply asked Fairy Lanxin:

"Sister Lan, are you satisfied with my answer?"

Orchid Fairy's thoughts were also pulled back. She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Chen Tianwen, saying:

"I know you have many secrets to keep, so I can't explain things clearly. I just want to ask you one question: are you willing to fight the Holy Cloud Sect to the death?"

Chen Tianwen nodded without hesitation; his firm gaze said it all.

Fairy Lanxin continued to ask:

"Even if the Holy Cloud Sect has a hidden Immortal Emperor, even if the Holy Cloud Sect is backed by a legendary Sage, are you still willing to go without hesitation?"

Chen Tianwen looked at Fairy Lanxin and said firmly:

"Sister Lan, the difficulties are only temporary. But no matter how arduous the process, I, Chen Tianwen, will work tirelessly for the goal I have set out for! Even if it is extremely difficult, even if it may cost me my life, I will never back down!"

Fairy Lanxin's eyes suddenly lit up, but then dimmed again, and she spoke softly:

"Someone else has said the same thing as you, but he wasn't as adaptable as you. You know how to bide your time and compromise when you're not strong enough, while he's stubborn and won't give up until he's completely defeated!"

Upon hearing Fairy Lanxin repeatedly mention that person, and recalling their earlier agreement, Chen Tianwen spoke to Fairy Lanxin:

"Sister Lan, can you tell me about that person?"

Fairy Lanxin's eyes were filled with complex emotions, and after a long while, she finally spoke softly, asking Chen Tian:

Do you know the Human Emperor?

"The Human Emperor!"
