The Dragon Abyss River wound for a thousand li, displaying the flourishing abundance of water's virtue.
Under the moonlight.
Chen Xuan was busily catching fireflies amid the reeds, then using Nine Dragons True Essence to gather them into a large ball...
Half an hour later, he excitedly slipped into the river, formed a hand seal to open the Guardian Formation, and dove down into the Water Mansion.
Inside a side hall.
Bai Bingyan was soaking in a large warm bath barrel carved from snow jade, looking languid and content.
Petals of every color floated upon the water, while mist curled upward, making her lovely face seem all the more captivating and perfect.
"Splash!"
Bai Bingyan extended a pale jade hand and stirred the water. A faint smile rested on her lips, and her peerlessly beautiful face bore the sacred radiance of a loving mother.
It had already been ten days since she had failed to tame her husband...
These ten days had been the most unforgettable days of Bai Bingyan's life.
She and Chen Xuan had swiftly entered the passionate stage of love, inseparable as glue and lacquer!
When their feelings ran deep, that... naturally went deep as well.
When their love grew intense, that... naturally became wildly fervent too.
Just as Bai Bingyan's thoughts were running wild, Chen Xuan rushed in excitedly.
"Ah! Husband, I'm bathing..." Bai Bingyan coquettishly scolded.
"Sorry!"
Chen Xuan gave an awkward smile, his eyes blazing with an eager thirst for knowledge.
Then, after tossing the ball formed from Nine Dragons True Essence onto the ground, he leaned closer.
Wanting to savor her fragrance with a kiss.
"Wife, how about I massage your fragrant shoulders? I guarantee I'll make you feel so good you won't know what to do..."
"No! You're too bad... Husband, go out first, okay? Let me put on my dress!"
"You'll just have to take it off again later. Why go through all that trouble? Hehehe..."
"Out!..."
With a light snort and a wave of her hand, Bai Bingyan directly swept Chen Xuan outside.
She quickly dressed herself, then emerged with faint white vapor clinging to her body, like a dreamy, sacred fairy descending into the mortal world.
"Wife, look what gift I brought you?"
Chen Xuan excitedly flicked his finger. The ball formed from Nine Dragons True Essence immediately split apart, and fireflies flew out one after another.
"Ah! So beautiful!"
Bai Bingyan's beautiful eyes lit up, and she was overjoyed!
The countless fireflies, glowing with dreamy green light, adorned the air with beauty and romance.
This sight nearly melted Bai Bingyan's girlish heart!
Meanwhile, Chen Xuan moved his finger back and forth through the air, and before long, the fireflies formed a huge heart.
"Mm..."
Bai Bingyan let out a soft moan and collapsed directly into Chen Xuan's arms, her beautiful eyes shimmering with emotion!
Her heart brimmed with gratitude and happiness!
At that moment, she even felt the urge to swoon!
With such warm fragrance and soft jade in his arms, Chen Xuan was naturally no Liu Xiahui. He immediately bent to whisper sweet nothings into Bai Bingyan's ear.
Rare were lovers who gave their hearts, leaning close like touching canopies!
"Husband, I love you too..."
Bai Bingyan murmured softly. A rosy flush spread across her fair face, like peach blossoms blooming in early spring.
"Mmm..."
The two embraced in a kiss.
No matter how perfect and aloof a fairy might be, if you were forceful enough, you could surely turn her into a fragile woman trembling like a flower branch in the wind.
Bai Bingyan was exactly like that now...
Though she possessed the extraordinary strength of the fourth level of the Tribulation Realm, Chen Xuan had still defeated her completely, leaving her utterly routed.
Yet Bai Bingyan had also experienced the joy of being a woman... It was indescribably wondrous!
Two hours later.
The two nestled happily together.
Bai Bingyan said faintly, "Husband, come back to Qingqiu with me, okay? I want to take you as my husband, and we can live happily together forever!"
"I... must leave in three days. There is a major matter at Ten Thousand Demon Mountain concerning the Demon Race, and only my bloodline can accomplish it..."
Because it involved a great secret of the Demon Race, she hesitated, unable to continue, her eyes filled with apology.
Chen Xuan nodded and said gently, "At the Apprentice Ceremony, I need to settle things with the Vast Sword Sect and Ji Yaoyue's group! Wife, wait obediently for me in Qingqiu. Your husband will come find you as soon as possible!"
"I won't wait obediently! If you come too late, this princess won't want you anymore!"
Bai Bingyan gave a proud little snort, and a rare trace of girlish innocence appeared on her face.
"You dare not want me? Be careful, or I'll spank your butt hard!"
Chen Xuan laughed heartily and reached out to scrape Bai Bingyan's lovely, straight nose.
After being intimate for a while longer, Chen Xuan began cultivating.
Ever since reaching the peak of Ninth Rank Qi Refining, he had made no further progress.
However, after diligently cultivating over these past ten days... he felt that a breakthrough was not far away!
At the same time.
Bai Bingyan lay languidly on the Jade Bed, propping her fragrant cheek with one jade hand as she gazed tenderly at Chen Xuan...
Her other hand unconsciously stroked her lower abdomen.
Three days ago, Bai Bingyan had vaguely sensed a faint breath of life within her body!
Now, she could confirm that she was pregnant!
Bai Bingyan did not tell Chen Xuan about this immediately.
She intended to share this good news with Chen Xuan when they parted three days later.
The next day.
The entire Vast Sword Sect was decked in lights and colors, bustling with excitement!
The Saintess Celebration was about to begin.
Liu Ruyan, who had not appeared for a long time, showed herself. Every smile and frown of hers was so beautiful it could steal souls, leaving countless male disciples utterly captivated...
Early that morning.
The many forces under the Vast Sword Sect's jurisdiction, the Eight Great Families, and the envoys dispatched by the Twenty-Plus Dynasties all arrived bearing generous gifts to offer their congratulations.
And many discerning people could see that the true purpose of this celebration... was to rake in wealth and build momentum!
Not long ago, Li Yinglian and the others had invested a full five million High-Grade Spirit Stones to help Ji Wushuang condense Immortal Source Fortune, leaving the sect with a severe shortage of Spirit Stones.
The forces within their territory were like fat sheep raised for slaughter, so naturally they had to be fleeced!
Since the Nine Sects Thirteen Schools had elders and disciples at the Vast Sword Sect, they attended this celebration on behalf of their respective sects.
Daoist Santong and the others all wore displeased expressions.
Originally, everyone had thought that Ji Wushuang, having been gravely wounded by a mysterious person, might not even recover by the Apprentice Ceremony.
Who would have thought that this brat was so monstrous? Not only had he recovered, he had forcibly raised his Seventh Grade Golden Core to a Ninth Grade Golden Core!
What the hell was there left to compete over?
Their own Saint Sons and Saintesses were quite exceptional as well, but compared to Chen Xuan, they fell far short!
The Vast Sword Sect's luck in taking disciples was simply too heaven-defying!
Before Chen Xuan condensed a Ninth Grade Golden Core, not a single peerless young genius with a Ninth Grade Golden Core had appeared in Central Province for nearly five hundred years.
And then?
Chen Xuan had barely been crippled before another Ji Wushuang emerged in rapid succession!
Even though Three Dao Reverend and the others guessed that Immortal Source Fortune was responsible, they still could not suppress their envy.
What they did not know was that Ji Wushuang had undergone such astonishing transformation because of his fusion with the Extraterrestrial Great Heart Demon!
Nor could anyone have known.
At the Saintess Celebration, just what kind of proud backbone and splendor Chen Xuan—the waste they looked down upon—would display...
