Chapter Forty-Nine: A Perfect Couple



"He practices the ruthless sword. To hone his sword heart, he has been hunting alien races in the ancient domain since he was ten years old. He has accumulated countless battle merits and has great prestige among the soldiers."

Why is Brother Xiu Qi so bloodthirsty?

"Because he's a psychopath! His personality changes drastically every now and then, and he goes on a killing spree, sometimes even killing wild animals and spirit beasts. So, for your own safety, you must leave this killer as soon as possible."

Ye Xiru blinked: "Master, is that how it is?" Why does it feel like a comedy from an animated film? It also gives the illusion of two best friends having a tiff.

"You doubt me. I am truly heartbroken." Jing Li's magnificent and wide robes concealed his bewitching and domineering face.

Ye Xiruo's face was full of black lines. Was this the start of another dark turn?

Continuing on, we find Yi Ruowu: the Holy Maiden of the Illusionary Heaven Palace, possessing a light-elemental spiritual root, and having successfully mastered the long-lost Great Bright Sword Technique; she will be the next Palace Master of the Illusionary Heaven Palace. Her face is veiled, and legend says Yi Ruowu is as pure and ethereal as a fairy; her unparalleled beauty is said to be worthy of only Xiu Qiyu.

These ancient people were quite gossipy; they even forced each other into teams.

"Is this for real?" This so-called saintess is not only incredibly beautiful, but also possesses terrifying cultivation talent. Her Great Light Technique has saved countless lives, and she enjoys a high reputation throughout the entire Taiyan Continent. Ye Xiruo subconsciously ignored all of this. Isn't she just a goddess? Back in the day, she was also the undisputed goddess of S City!

"Yes, I've seen that kid before; he's a promising talent."

“Even Master said so.” Ye Xiruo felt wronged instantly. Brother Xiu Qi clearly had absolutely no relationship with that woman.

"Yi Ruowu is the only woman among the Four Prodigies, and also the most admired woman in the world. Xiu Qiyu is the recognized number one person in the Taiyan Continent. The combination of these two is something that many people dream of."

"It's all just wild guessing, okay? So, Brother Xiu Qi is the most popular person in the entire Taiyan Continent? Who wouldn't want to marry him?"

"The Ninth Princess of the Taiyan Divine Dynasty once declared that she was willing to marry Xiu Qiyu as a princess, and from then on, Xiu Qiyu would be a member of the Taiyan Dynasty. Guess what?"

"Of course I refused! Brother Xiu Qi is devoted to the Dao; power and beautiful women are all fleeting things, okay?" Ye Xiruo sneered. Actually, she was already sweating bullets with fear. What if Brother Xiu Qi became a prince consort? What chance would she have then?

"Disciple, for the sake of your Brother Xiu Qi, you must grow up quickly." This is the most important thing. Otherwise, even if you have extraordinary talent and have him and Xiu Qiyu protecting you, you will inevitably be looked down upon or even harmed.

Ye Xiruo is still too weak right now.

"Master, don't worry! I'm destined to become a god-level alchemist. How can someone like Yi Ruowu or the Ninth Princess compare to me?"

Jing Li chuckled and patted Ye Xiruo's head: "It's enough that you have this intention. Qinglian Heaven will definitely be yours."

"It was originally mine." Ye Xiruo always had a feeling that Qinglian Heaven was related to the lotus flower in her space that was about to wither.

Ruthless Drunkard: Crown Prince of the Dark Demon Clan, possessing a captivating and alluring beauty, his demonic arts instill fear in all who hear of him. He crushes countless geniuses across the continent, ranking third among the Four Great Prodigies. He is rumored to be the number one cultivator below the Seven Heroes Realm.

"He's here too."

"Yes, even if he can't use Qingliantian himself, he can use it to exchange for things that are most beneficial to him."

"Isn't he afraid of being ganged up on and killed by the righteous path?" A demon dares to openly run into the territory of the righteous path. Isn't that just asking for trouble?

“There are regulations on the mainland that when prodigies compete, sects and elders are not allowed to interfere. Otherwise, if your ancestor destroys my prodigy, I will destroy your genius, and the human race’s inheritance may very well be cut off.”

“That makes sense.” Ye Xiruo nodded.

"I heard that several princes and princesses from the Taiyan Divine Dynasty are also coming."

Ye Xiruo's face immediately fell: "So that means the Ninth Princess will be coming too."

"That's natural. Over the years, it's common knowledge across the continent that the Ninth Princess has been pursuing Xiu Qiyu."

"Anything else?"

"Rumor has it that the Holy Maiden also has deep feelings for Xiu Qiyu."

This damned luck with women! Ye Xiruo could already imagine Xiu Qiyu being surrounded by a bunch of female immortals, and how ugly his face would be.

Even as it was time to eat, Ye Xiruo's eyes remained somewhat vacant, as if she were lost in thought. Before she knew it, Jing Li had practically piled up the small bowls in front of her into a mountain.

“Disciple, I examined your body before. In one word, you are weak; in two words, you are very weak.”

"So." Ye Xiru blinked.

"You should eat more, it would be best to eat all of these."

"I can't eat it all." Ye Xiruo looked at Jingli with sincere eyes.

"How about I cook you a pot of medicinal cuisine?"

Medicinal cuisine sounds terrifying, doesn't it? Ye Xiru shook her head more vigorously than a rattle drum, and quickly buried her head to start eating. Speaking of which, Mingxi's cooking skills are really amazing. She can bring out the most essential flavor of the ingredients in all the dishes. It is a talent that is truly enviable.

"Mingxi's skills are innate, so you shouldn't think about them. Focusing on alchemy is the right thing to do."

"Yes, Master." Clearly, eating is the most important thing in life.

"You let Xiu Qiyu go, didn't you!" After finishing her meal, Ye Xiruo wanted to sneak away, but Jing Li caught her.

"That master had something to do, so he left first."

"What could be more important than being with you?" At this critical juncture, the Palace Master had completely forgotten the fact that Xiu Qiyu was seriously injured and had negative combat power.

"He went to buy a medicine cauldron for me," Ye Xiruo suddenly realized.

Jing Li's expression darkened further.

"You don't even have a medicine cauldron." Well, Xiu Qiyu is quite useless.

The Palace Master flicked his sleeve and tossed a ring to Ye Xiruo: "These medicine cauldrons aren't very good quality, so I'm giving them to you to practice with."

Ye Xiruo accepted the medicine cauldrons with a sense of surprise and secretly glanced at them; there were more than a dozen cauldrons of various sizes.

"Master the Control of Goods Technique to the third level as soon as possible, so as to avoid the furnace exploding during alchemy."

Ye Xiruo pursed her lips, and a small flame appeared on her fingertip, seemingly about to go out at any moment, but stubbornly kept changing shape.

The delicate teacup in Jingli's hand fell to the ground with a crash and shattered into countless pieces.

Back then, it took him seven days to reach the first level. If he wasn't mistaken, his disciple had already reached the first level. And now, in less than a day, could it be that his disciple, besides being a genius in alchemy, is also a rare martial arts prodigy?

The small flame went out in an instant. Ye Xiruo felt a little guilty. The space and the system were of great importance and should not be exposed too early. However, she also felt very uncomfortable about hiding it from her master.
