After Being Expelled from the Sect, My Beautiful Master Begged Me for Forgiveness - Chapter 7:
Chapter 7: Not Being the Fool Anymore
The next morning.
When Chen Xuan was finally released from his restraints, Bai Bingyan had already returned to her breathtakingly beautiful appearance.
Without hesitation, she tossed the Nine Orifice Golden Yuan Pill over and said calmly, “It seems that sleeping for just one night can only temporarily suppress the eruption of my Nine Yin Cold Veins. I’ll need to sleep with you for several more days. Once it’s under control, I will naturally leave.”
Although Bai Bingyan did her best to conceal her emotions, the delicate blush on her flawless face betrayed her heart.
Chen Xuan hurriedly caught the treasure pill, smiling obsequiously. “Seventh Princess, if you want to sleep with me for a few more days, feel free! We’re friends now!”
“But… the benefits also have to be fair. After all, I’m making quite the sacrifice here…”
Bai Bingyan frowned slightly, lowering her voice in discontent. “After everything we’ve done… are we still just friends? Could I already be pregnant?”
Cough cough cough!
Chen Xuan coughed awkwardly, unable to hide his embarrassment.
He could only smile bitterly.
This Seventh Princess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan was truly innocent, actually believing that just hugging naked counted as ‘sleeping together’?
However, her series of actions last night had indeed given him quite a scare.
“I’ll stay in the secret chamber. At night, we’ll continue sleeping together,” Bai Bingyan said, then closed her charming, narrow eyes and sat cross-legged to cultivate.
Chen Xuan, on the other hand, left the secret chamber and headed straight to his exclusive Holy Son bathhouse.
Gulp!
Chen Xuan swallowed the Nine Orifice Golden Yuan Pill in one go, then quickly plunged into the hot spring.
Not long after, he let out satisfied, relieved groans.
Under the pill’s immense medicinal power, all his hidden injuries healed rapidly, while a vast amount of extraordinary energy settled deep within his body.
An hour later.
Splash!
Chen Xuan emerged from the hot spring, his face glowing with excitement.
“Even though I self-destructed my 9th Grade Golden Core, my Nine Yang Battle Body has returned to its peak! With just my physical strength, I can now rival a fourth or fifth stage Golden Core Realm cultivator. Of course, as long as the opponent doesn’t specialize in soul-type techniques…”
A moment later, a paper crane flew into the Xuan Hall: Master Ji Yaoyue summons you!
…
Inside the Jade Maiden Hall.
Ji Yaoyue sat majestically on the throne, with Ji Wushuang smiling beside her.
The four senior sisters sat on either side, while more than twenty outer disciples of Jade Maiden Peak stood respectfully within the hall.
“Greetings, Master.”
Chen Xuan bowed perfunctorily.
Ever since he had seen through Ji Yaoyue’s true face, he could no longer muster much respect for her.
Ji Yaoyue looked down at him coldly. “Chen Xuan, in seven days, it will be the new Holy Son’s succession ceremony. What suggestions do you have?”
“A cripple like me? What suggestions could I possibly have?” Chen Xuan replied indifferently.
Ji Yaoyue raised her delicate brows, displeased. “How could it have nothing to do with you? Such a grand event will naturally be held in the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace. And the sword palace’s artifact spirit only listens to you. If you want the palace to fully open and welcome guests from all directions, it still requires your command.”
Her words brought a sneer to Chen Xuan’s lips.
For years, the continuous operation of the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace had brought immense glory to the Grand Righteous Sword Sect, but at the cost of countless spirit stones.
That enormous expenditure had always been borne by him in silence.
He had only ever wanted the sect to grow stronger, so he never minded.
But that was then. Things were different now!
Chen Xuan no longer intended to be the fool.
“This has nothing to do with me,” Chen Xuan said flatly.
“Insolence!”
Ji Yaoyue slammed her hand on the armrest and stood abruptly!
Her towering snow-white peaks quivered violently, tracing a seductive arc.
Seeing this, Ji Wushuang’s eyes gleamed with madness and greed.
“Chen Xuan, my words yesterday may have been harsh. But you are too narrow-minded, showing no respect for your master,” Ji Yaoyue scolded, her expression dark.
In the past, Chen Xuan would have long since knelt in apology.
But now, he stood cold and unyielding, like a battle-hardened god of war.
“Senior Brother, look how you’ve angered Master… You’re already a cripple. Without Jade Maiden Peak’s protection, how could you still survive? Don’t forget, you’ve slain many demonic prodigies over the years and made countless enemies…” Ji Wushuang sneered, his threat veiled but clear.
Yet Chen Xuan only smiled disdainfully.
His attitude enraged the four senior sisters, who immediately launched a verbal assault against him.
In their eyes, the once radiant and perfect junior brother had now become a cripple, yet still dared to act arrogantly?
He was nothing more than a stinking pile of dog dung!
Second Senior Sister Shen Qingqing even said softly, “Junior Brother, you shouldn’t show mercy to certain vile scum. Otherwise, you’ll only end up hurting yourself. The best way is to use force directly!”
Boom!
Ji Yaoyue, upon hearing this, erupted with terrifying Nascent Soul pressure, enveloping Chen Xuan.
She shouted harshly, “Rebellious disciple, do you agree or not?”
Pfft…
Caught off guard, even with the Nine Yang Battle Body, Chen Xuan couldn’t withstand it and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Then, Chen Xuan responded decisively, “I will attend the new Holy Son’s succession ceremony at the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace in seven days. I will now go to the sword palace artifact spirit and issue the order.”
“Hmph! At least you know your place.”
Ji Yaoyue sneered and withdrew her Nascent Soul pressure.
She knew Chen Xuan had no choice but to agree.
Because… he had no other options!
“Go.”
Ji Yaoyue flicked her sleeve, finally revealing a satisfied expression.
Some people truly are despicable.
Only after being beaten and threatened with their life do they realize how worthless they are.
Ji Wushuang watched Chen Xuan’s departing back… he was so thrilled he almost climaxed on the spot!
So satisfying!
Chen Xuan, weren’t you still acting tough yesterday?
Why are you soft now?
But… even so, you will still have to bear the dirty, scandalous burden that awaits you, becoming the most despised disgrace of the Grand Righteous Sword Sect!
“Chen Xuan, just wait to bear that filthy burden and be utterly ruined!” Ji Wushuang’s lips curled into a sharp, sneering grin.
…
Outside the grand, ancient, and majestic Sword Palace, filled with the aura of time, Chen Xuan stopped.
Before him stood the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace…
“I remember how high-spirited I was when I first obtained the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace. And when I selflessly offered it to the Grand Righteous Sword Sect, how much praise and admiration did I receive?”
“Yet… everything has changed.”
Chen Xuan shook his head in lament, then stepped inside the Ancient Evolution Sword Palace.
He smoothly reached the core area and faced the illusory, light-like artifact spirit.
Chen Xuan ordered directly, “On the day of the new Holy Son’s succession ceremony, once the guests have gathered, enter sleep mode.”
With that, he turned and left!
“Ji Yaoyue, Ji Wushuang… since you are heartless, don’t blame me, Chen Xuan, for being ruthless!”
