Chapter – 05
The White-Haired Beautiful Girl
Master and disciple stood locked in a tense confrontation!
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became ten times heavier than before.
Then Ji Yaoyue suddenly cried out sharply, “Since it’s a bet, words alone are not enoughâwe must swear a Great Dao Oath!”
With that, she coldly and proudly extended a finger, using her true essence to inscribe a bet agreement in midair.
This was a Dao Contract, something only cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage could enact. Once both parties dripped their blood into it, it would merge into the heavens and earth and be witnessed by the Great Dao. Whichever side dared to break it would surely suffer terrible backlash!
Ji Yaoyue let out a cold laugh, unhesitatingly forced out a drop of blood, and flicked it into the rippling contract.
“Disciples, your turn!”
Ji Yaoyue narrowed her eyes slightly, fixing her gaze on Chen Xuan, unwilling to miss even the subtlest expression on his face.
She was eager to see Chen Xuan show hesitation and panic.
Butâ
What Ji Yaoyue didn’t expect was that instead, she was met with Chen Xuan throwing his head back and laughing heartily…
“Hahaha…”
Under everyone’s stunned gazes, Chen Xuan laughed freely and uninhibitedly, so much so that tears streamed down his face, bitter and poignant!
So this was the good master he had revered all these years?
How utterly despicable! How utterly hypocritical!
Seeing this, Ji Yaoyue felt an inexplicable surge of anger and embarrassment.
This vile discipleâdid he truly no longer care about their master-disciple bond?
“Vile disciple, what are you laughing at? Have you changed your mind?” Ji Yaoyue forced herself to remain calm, putting on a stern front as she shouted.
Chen Xuan gave a disdainful smile and responded coolly, without haste.
“I laugh that you all have eyes but fail to recognize a true dragon!”
“I laugh that the Haoran Sword Sect is full of hypocrites who steal fame and reputation!”
“I laugh that… all these years… I was truly so foolish!”
Chen Xuan’s mocking words cut like knives, sharp and unyielding!
“Insolent!”
Ji Yaoyue roared in fury, her pupils turning icy cold!
Elder Qingshui and the others were furious as well, scolding him loudly!
Even Li Yinglian’s expression turned extremely ugly, as if someone had forcibly shoved a lump of excrement into her mouth.
At that moment, Chen Xuan directly used a dagger to cut his index finger, and bright red blood seeped out.
“Stop!”
Seeing this, Du Meng roared and flashed over to block Chen Xuan.
He said earnestly, “Xuan Ge, you don’t have many chips left! There’s no need to waste them all just for the sake of pride!”
But Chen Xuan said without hesitation, “A man lives for pride, just as a Buddha fights for a stick of incense! I’m signing this bet!”
Before he finished speaking, he flicked his hand hard!
Immediately, a string of blood droplets splashed onto the Dao Contract and was quickly absorbed.
The scene fell utterly silent!
The next moment, the Dao Contract split in two, turning into two streaks of light that merged into Chen Xuan and Ji Yaoyue’s bodies.
“Heh!”
Ji Wushuang let out a cold sneer, looking at Chen Xuan as if he were an idiot.
He dropped the act!
Because the bet was now sealed, witnessed by the Great Dao!
“Chen Xuan, you were merely wronged, yet you act so rudely and wantonly, forgetting even basic respect for your master and elders… I am utterly disappointed in you, Sect Master!”
Li Yinglian flicked his sleeve, turned angrily, and flew off into the distance.
With his angry departure, the crowd also left Jade Maiden Peak.
Dai Tao and his group laughed heartily, not even bothering to hide it, and even said sarcastic things like “You’re finished” directly to Chen Xuan.
“Vile disciple, just wait and see how you can still twist your words at the disciple recruitment ceremony a month from now!”
Ji Yaoyue’s words were icy cold, chilling to the bone.
Then she leaped into the air and flew back to the Jade Maiden Hall.
“Sigh!… Xuan Ge, why did you do this?”
Du Meng let out a long sigh, patting Chen Xuan’s shoulder regretfully.
The members of the Haoran Sword Sect all departed one after another, many unable to hide their contempt… as if they were looking at a homeless dog!
In their eyes, Chen Xuan, who had fallen out with Ji Yaoyue, was utterly foolish!
How could such a person have once been the Holy Son of the Haoran Sword Sect?
He was a disgrace to the sect!
Throughout it all, Chen Xuan said nothing, only the corners of his mouth lifting slightly.
Sharp as a blade!
One month from now, huh?
I, Chen Xuan, will make you all understand what it means to judge a book by its cover!!!
At midnight, all was silent.
Under the moonlight, the Xuan Hall seemed shrouded in a thin layer of white mist, lending it an air of sanctity.
Inside the secret chamber.
Chen Xuan sat cross-legged, guiding the brilliant golden light emanating from the awakened True Dragon Heart within him to repair his damaged dantian.
At some point, the True Dragon Heart suddenly trembled, as if sensing something.
Instantly!
Chen Xuan’s entire body was bathed in a hazy golden glow, and behind him, a domineering image of a five-clawed golden dragon materialized.
“Hm?”
Chen Xuan’s pupils abruptly contracted as he was shocked to find the entire chamber’s temperature plummeting. Thick layers of ice crystals formed on the floor and walls.
A figure materialized out of thin air right before him.
“Shattering the void? A Great Tribulation cultivator? Or someone with a void-related innate divine ability…”
Chen Xuan drew in a sharp breath of cold air, then froze completely.
Before him stood a girl in a red dress, stunningly beautiful in an otherworldly, soul-stirring way!
Her delicate features seemed like a masterpiece of the Creatorâher brows like distant mountains, her long, narrow peach-blossom eyes perfectly balancing allure without vulgarity, her nose elegantly straight, and her lips like cherries.
She was simply breathtaking!
The girl’s flowing white hair drifted around her. Though her red dress was slightly loose, it still outlined a striking figureâher slender waist and eye-catching curves forming a silhouette that made one’s blood rush…
“Boom!”
The moment their eyes met, Chen Xuan felt as if his soul had been struck hard, and he couldn’t help but feel some improper thoughts.
Stunning! Exquisite! Overwhelming!
How could anyone not be moved by such an extremely alluring white-haired beautiful girl?
But she also radiated an icy chill like ten-thousand-year-old frozen jade, giving off a distant, untouchable coldness.
“A five-clawed golden dragon? The supreme True Dragon bloodline? You’re clearly human… and yet, that supreme Yang aura is unmistakable!”
The red-dressed girl spoke in confusion, her voice ethereal and crisp, carrying a sense of otherworldliness.
The next second, her peach-blossom eyes turned deep and unfathomable.
“Hiss!…”
The moment Chen Xuan’s eyes met hers, he felt a terrifying sensation as if he were falling into an abyss.
Then, she smiled faintlyâenchantingly beautiful!
“That’s right! You are the man I’ve been looking for. Let me introduce myselfâmy name is Bai Bingyan…”
“Tap, tap, tap…”
Bai Bingyan walked gracefully, drawing closer and closer to Chen Xuan.
A wave of cold surged, chilling to the bone!
She was barefoot, her delicate pink feet with perfectly formed toes glistening like finely carved jade.
“Swish!”
Bai Bingyan raised her jade arm, her right hand tracing an elegant arc as she gently lifted Chen Xuan’s chin.
She gazed at him, solemnly.
“Miss Bai, what… what are you trying to do?”
Chen Xuan stammered, his heart in utter panic.
He could sense an immensely powerful supreme Yin aura emanating from Bai Bingyan, and he concluded that she must be a Great Tribulation cultivator!
To put it in perspective, the strongest cultivator in the Haoran Sword Sect, Sect Master Li Yinglian, was only at the late Nascent Soul stage.
With just one finger, this woman could crush him to death…
Upon hearing this, Bai Bingyan’s cheeks flushed with a faint pink.
She shyly said, “I’ve come from afar to find you because I want to sleep with you… And you’re not allowed to refuse, okay?”
