“Brother Dao, I have no intention of joking at all.”
Ji Changqing looked serious and earnest. Born into a family of cultivators, he indeed had fewer worries. He could choose from all the advanced cultivation techniques and resources that ordinary rogue cultivators wanted.
However, being born into a prominent family does not mean being carefree. Since the Church of All Souls possesses so many resources, it must bear the corresponding responsibilities.
Unlike Donghua Continent, which is located in the safest position in the human territory, Nanzhan Continent is adjacent to a continent occupied by demons. Every year, there are incidents of demons smuggling themselves into the human territory to eat people. A considerable number of these demons who smuggle themselves into the human territory are dealt with by the Wanling Sect.
In retaliation, the Myriad Spirits Sect would periodically organize a group of high-ranking cultivators, in conjunction with its border-guarding sects, to invade the continents ruled by demons.
Unlike the immortal cultivation sects in the human realm who pursue immortality and live freely, the Wanling Sect, a sect that guards the borders, does not cultivate immortality for the sake of longevity, but only to obtain the power to fight against demons.
Every cultivator who occupies a high position in the sect has their hands stained with the blood of countless demons and monsters. This is a promotion system left behind by the founder when he established the sect.
Slaying demons and monsters was a belief that Ji Changqing had established since childhood, before he could even read. He was also willing to fight against demons and monsters to protect the territory of the human race and even expand the territory when he achieved some success in his cultivation.
He could fight demons and monsters without fear of death, but his sister could not. His sister was a being of the Myriad Spirits Body. Although she was extremely talented and gifted, she was born with a dislike for killing. She needed a Daoist partner who was strong and excellent enough.
Sword Comes
Unfortunately, none of those guys who had taken a liking to his sister's physique and shamelessly came to propose marriage were any of them. They were all a bunch of good-for-nothings, and very few could even compare to him, let alone have the talent to rival his sister's.
How can such a good-for-nothing be qualified to enter into a marriage contract with his sister? What a joke! What use is he except for dragging his sister down?
"I know you're not joking, but even if I agree, so what? You're not your sister, so how can you make decisions for her?"
Although the young man made a grand promise and offered to introduce his sister to him, how could Feng Bingwen, who was pursuing a carefree life, agree to such an offer?
Although he is the one who benefits, agreeing to this is far too despicable. If he were to seek a partner someday, it would surely be out of mutual affection, not through such an arranged marriage.
"I can……"
No, you can't do it!
Feng Bingwen promptly and decisively rejected him at this moment.
"If you still intend to use this matter to entangle me, then let's part ways here!"
"Alas, it was Changqing's fault. Please forgive me, fellow Daoist!"
Ji Changqing once again deeply reflected on his actions, realizing that he had indeed been too hasty. However, the Innate Five Elements Dao Body was indeed too tempting; if he could, he would want to try it himself.
Until we meet again!
Feng Bingwen cupped his hands in greeting, then gently kicked the five-colored deer he was riding. The five-colored deer, which had been listening to their conversation in a daze, suddenly shuddered and transformed into a five-colored light, carrying Feng Bingwen on its back and disappearing into the depths of the forest.
“Fellow Daoist Feng was probably tempted just now, but still declined. Such a temperament makes you a perfect match. I must help my sister seize this opportunity.”
Although Feng Bingwen had already disappeared from his sight, Ji Changqing's eyes flashed with mysterious light, yet he still did not give up.
If he was amazed by Feng Bingwen's extraordinary, almost immortal physique the first time, then this time, he was filled with admiration for the other party's noble character.
Putting himself in her shoes, if someone offered him a female cultivator with such exceptional talent and aptitude, he certainly wouldn't refuse and would readily agree to the marriage. As for feelings? They could be cultivated after they became Daoist partners; it wasn't a big deal. Wasn't that how it was in the mortal world?
"Who are these people?"
Having shaken off Feng Bingwen, who had tried to become his brother-in-law, he sat on the deer's back and couldn't help but shake his head.
"Sir, why didn't you agree just now?"
At this moment, the five-colored deer, Hana Asagao, who had witnessed the whole thing, asked curiously.
Why should I agree?
Feng Bingwen did not answer but asked a question in return.
"Isn't this good? Does Master dislike that female cultivator, thinking she's not good enough for you?"
Hua Chaoyan couldn't understand. Even with her deer-like aesthetic standards, she felt that the girl was ethereal and beautiful. Why would her new master refuse such a beautiful person? It didn't make sense.
"What nonsense are you spouting, you little deer? I've never even seen a person before, how could I possibly look down on you?"
Feng Bingwen raised his hand and tapped the fawn's antlers. Ordinary female deer don't usually grow antlers, but the five-colored deer is recognized as an auspicious creature by humans, so it is naturally extraordinary.
"What I mean should be easy to understand, right? Even an older brother can't make decisions for his younger sister."
"Isn't this normal?"
The Five-Colored Deer found it hard to understand. According to what she knew about humans, weren't they all about arranged marriages and matchmakers? Moreover, humans had the saying that the eldest brother was like a father.
"This is not normal, and what do you think Ji Changqing is interested in?"
Feng Bingwen sneered. He wasn't stupid. That guy only became so enthusiastic after recognizing his physique. He didn't even ask his name before recommending his sister to him.
Isn't it obvious they just want his child? How can he agree to that so easily?
"Feng Bingwen, you've already agreed to fight me, so where are you going now?"
Hua Chaoyan was seriously pondering the master's question when a loud shout came from above, startling her so much that she almost lost her speed. However, she quickly regained her balance, maintained her escape light, and increased her speed by three points.
"Feng Bingwen, are you going to flee without a fight?"
Under the Five Elements Escape Technique, even Wang Yuan, who had struggled to find his way here, was somewhat unable to keep up. Seeing that he was about to lose Feng Bingwen's aura, he was immediately filled with anger and shouted loudly, which shook the mountains and caused all the beasts to panic.
"Stop!"
Hearing the voice behind him, Feng Bingwen gave instructions to Hua Chaoyan.
"I made a promise with him to fight here!"
"yes."
Hearing this, Hua Chaoyan was a little nervous, but she still obediently stopped. She knew that the human geniuses who entered the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths would not only attack them, but would also fight and kill each other. In any case, they all had a way to save their lives.
"This is a mount I just acquired. It's a bit timid, which has caused you to misunderstand, Brother Wang!"
Feng Bingwen ascended into the sky and spoke in a loud voice. But when he looked at Wang Yuan who had come looking for him, he was taken aback, because he saw a handsome young man with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, wearing silver armor, holding a dragon spear, riding a heavenly horse, and arriving from the sky.
"Five-colored deer?"
Armored and spear in hand, Wang Yuan, a far cry from his casual demeanor on Martial Venerable Mountain, glanced at the five-colored deer below, whose eyes held a hint of fear, and spoke without any politeness.
"She's too weak, she's not good enough for you!"
"I think his escape technique is acceptable!"
Feng Bingwen responded with a smile.
"What's the use of running away, no matter how fast you are?"
Wang Yuan dismissed it dismissively and then began to promote it to Feng Bingwen.
“I know that among the alien races that have entered the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths this time, there is a dragon horse whose bloodline has reverted to its ancestral form. It is unruly and tyrannical, and quite extraordinary. If you defeat me after our battle, I can take you to find that horse.”
"Thank you for your kind offer, Brother Wang!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Bingwen couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that this Wang Yuan was truly capable and virtuous.
"You'd better beat me first!"
The boy, spear in hand, stepped down from the heavenly horse.
"Brother, there's no need to dismount!"
Feng Bingwen shook his head.
"You have no mount, so I won't cheat you!"
A surge of blood energy coursed through his body, making a sound like surging tides as it circulated. Crimson blood energy rose from the boy's body like smoke from a wolf's tail.
"If you don't bully me, then I'll bully you!"
Feng Bingwen smiled upon hearing this. Behind him, purple light filled the air and mysterious light rose. A majestic dragon coiled and danced behind him, its mighty dragon power pouring down, causing the celestial horse with its wings folded to let out a neigh.
"A true dragon!"
The boy let out a cry of surprise, but after a moment of astonishment, he quickly regained his composure. Although the dragon's might was genuine and its spiritual power was surging, the dragon did not have abundant blood energy; it was a spiritual body.
"Spiritual entity?"
"Defeat him!"
With his left hand behind his back and his right hand pointing forward, Feng Bingwen caused the dragon coiled behind him to let out a roar. Surging clouds and mist spread from between the fine scales, obscuring most of its form. As it soared through the clouds and mist, it flew up in front of the young man.
"I hate Taoist priests!"
Wang Yuan, who had come specifically to find Feng Bingwen, was somewhat disappointed. He had originally wanted to have a brutal, hand-to-hand combat with Feng Bingwen, but he never expected that after meeting him, this guy would actually summon a spirit to deal with him.
That's infuriating!
"Defeat the Dragon Spirit as quickly as possible! Don't hold back!"
Wang Yuan, who was eager to engage Feng Bingwen in close combat, had not yet realized the seriousness of the situation. He subconsciously thought that the dragon spirit summoned by Feng Bingwen was just a shell with a frightening appearance, and did not treat it as a real dragon at all. He raised his dragon spear and thrust it straight at the seven-inch mark, wanting to finish it off in the shortest possible time.
boom!
Shui Ling made no move to dodge. Seeing the human warrior thrust his spear straight at her, a hint of mockery flashed in her deep dragon eyes. She charged straight at him without flinching.
The once spirited and ambitious young man, brimming with fighting spirit and bloodlust, fell from the sky at an unbelievable speed. His terrifying power shattered trees and rocks, causing large sections of forest to collapse and break apart. Amidst the billowing dust, a ravine hundreds of feet long appeared in the dense forest.
"well!"
Upon seeing this, Feng Bingwen couldn't help but shake his head. The five innate spirits were his companions, dependent on him, but they also possessed a certain degree of independence and could be cultivated.
The most terrifying thing is the cultivation aptitude of the Five Elements, which is at the same level as his, except that they can only cultivate a single attribute. If they find a suitable cultivation method, they can be reborn overnight.
As for Shui Ling, having obtained the "Mysterious Netherworld Scripture," it's unknown how much Xuan Yuan Heavy Water he cultivated and integrated into his dragon body.
