Chen Mingxuan

Early the next morning, Chen Mingxuan and the girl flew together towards the Vast Sea Ruins.

When they arrived near the ruins, they happened to see a heavily injured Golden Core realm Demon King flying towards them in a panic.

"You monster, behold the treasure!"

Chen Mingxuan's gaze turned cold, and he immediately summoned a golden treasure ring and shone it over.

This treasure is called the Heaven-Earth Demon-Subduing Ring. It is a natal Life-bound Magical Treasure and Chen Mingxuan's prized possession. With a single move, it forced the Golden Core realm Demon King to fly backward twice.

"Clang--"

In an instant, a sword light slashed from behind, cutting the Golden Core realm Demon King in two.

The newcomer was a young man, dressed in a blue robe, with handsome features and Bu Fan demeanor, which stunned the girl next to Chen Mingxuan.

After slaying the Demon King, the young man cupped his hands in greeting to the two men and then smiled, saying, "I have been chasing this monster for over half a month, and today I am very grateful to the two of you for stopping it; otherwise, I'm afraid it would have escaped."

"Not at all, it was nothing at all."

Chen Mingxuan nodded, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you've only just entered the Golden Core realm, yet you've already slain Demon King. Truly impressive skill."

Don't you recognize me?

The newcomer paused for a moment before smiling and saying, "Let me introduce myself. I am Chen Fusu. May I ask your honorable surnames?"

"List?"

Chen Mingxuan paused slightly, then cupped his hands in greeting and said, "My name is Chen Mingxuan, and this is my younger sister Chen Mingyan. We are siblings, so it is only right that we greet each other."

"I didn't expect you to be from the same clan." Chen Fusu smiled and then said, "You have helped me a great deal. There is a End of the World Tower on Zixuan Isle ahead. I will host a banquet for you two here."

Just as Chen Mingxuan was about to refuse, Chen Mingyan quietly transmitted her voice, saying, "This person is exceptionally talented and surnamed Chen. He is most likely a prodigy disciple of the Chen Clan, the overlords of the Vast Sea. Why not take this opportunity to get to know him?"

"Alright."

Hearing her say that, Chen Mingxuan agreed to the invitation and headed to Zixuan Isle.

The group ascended End of the World Tower, and Chen Fusu laughed, "This End of the World Tower is a property of my Chen Clan. My Chen Clan's roasted spirit goose is a unique delicacy in the Ji Continent, a rare and exquisite delicacy even in the whole world."

After tasting it, both of them couldn't help but squint their eyes.

The roasted spirit goose at End of the World Tower is not only exceptionally delicious, but also made with extremely high-quality ingredients. The sauces used are made from various spirit medicine, and the spirit geese used as the main ingredient are all powerful demons from the Purple Mansion.

Therefore, it is not only incredibly delicious, but it can also enhance a cultivator's cultivation level, making it unaffordable for many Golden Core realm cultivators.

"This meal probably costs hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stone."

Chen Mingxuan felt his own Law Power increase slightly, and thinking that this meal must have been quite expensive, he couldn't help but say, "Fellow Daoist, you've gone to so much trouble."

"No, no, not at all."

Chen Fusu smiled, then looked at Chen Mingxuan and said, "I see that you are exceptionally talented and destined for greatness, so I am taking the liberty of making your acquaintance."

"Besides, fellow Daoist, you've also done me a great favor."

Seeing his polite manner, Chen Mingxuan said, "I didn't expect you to be a disciple of the Chen Clan. The Chen Clan truly lives up to its reputation as a thousand-year-old immortal clan. No wonder they were able to cultivate such an extraordinary genius as yourself."

But at that moment, Chen Fusu suddenly spoke up in a low voice, "Fellow Daoist, you must be mistaken. My Chen Clan has only been established for a few hundred years."

"Oh no..."

Chen Mingxuan's heart skipped a beat, realizing that his lack of experience had exposed his origins from beyond the Vast Sea.

"There was definitely a problem."

Chen Fusu murmured to himself, then smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry. My Chen Clan patriarch has never tolerated any wrongdoing and will not make things difficult for you."

"However, this must be your first time venturing out for training, so you'll need to be more careful with your words and actions in the future."

"Mingxuan has learned a lot." Chen Mingxuan nodded, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I never imagined that such a glorious Chen Clan had only been established for a few hundred years. It is truly Mingxuan."

Chen Fusu smiled and said, "My Chen Clan has only risen to prominence in the last few hundred years. In fact, our ancestors were once the overlords of this Vast Sea. Now we are merely repeating the glory of the past."

"What?"

As Chen Fusu recounted his story, Chen Mingxuan was startled and couldn't help but hesitate. According to Chen Fusu, weren't they one of the original branches of the Chen Clan?

And the timing does match up.

Thinking of the clan's predicament, Fu Su Chen Mingxuan hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "Brother Fu Su, I have a favor to ask, and I hope you can grant it."

"Oh?"

Chen Fusu's eyes flickered, and he waited for Chen Mingxuan to continue.

Seeing this, Chen Mingxuan said, "I would like to ask for a drop of your blood."

Hearing this, Chen Fusu frowned. A cultivator's Essence Blood is extremely valuable, and if it falls into the hands of Devil Cultivator, it will likely be targeted specifically.

"I know I'm asking a bit too much, but I promise to use this drop of Essence Blood in front of you."

Upon seeing this, Chen Fusu's heart stirred slightly, and he smiled and said, "It seems my intuition was correct."

It turned out that Chen Fusu had already sensed a faint blood bond when they first met.

Although their bloodlines were quite distant, he was still a Golden Core realm cultivator who had also practiced the Great Evolution Heavenly Art, so he would naturally have some kind of connection with the Unseen.

"It seems you have some suspicions as well, fellow Daoist."

Hearing Chen Fusu's words, Chen Mingxuan felt slightly reassured.

He exchanged a glance with Chen Mingyan, then said, "However, this matter is of great importance, so please allow me to confirm it, cousin."

"Alright."

Chen Fusu nodded, agreeing to the method.

Both sides took out a drop of blood and then used the Bloodline Tracing Art to quickly determine the source of each other's bloodline.

Chen Fusu then smiled and said, "I never imagined that there would be another branch of my Chen Clan in such a distant place. I'm sure our ancestor would be very pleased to know this."

"Come, I'll take you to see the ancestor."

"..."

Early that morning, Chen Nianzhi was absorbing the morning glow and merging with the Hongmeng Purple Qi in front of Spirit Isle Lake.

After he absorbed Yunran into his stomach, he slowly opened his eyes and said, "Why did you come to Spirit Isle Lake today, Old Granduncle?"

There's something I need to discuss with you.

As Chen Changxuan spoke, he told him about Chen Mingxuan's situation.

The Chen Immortal Clan of the Long River Ancient Domain is now in an extremely dangerous situation. Although their ancestor is Nascent Soul True Lord, he has been afflicted by the Blood-Transforming Old Devil's Blood-Transforming Devil Curse and is likely to have passed away within sixty years.

The Fang Clan's ancestor, who was Chen Clan's opponent, was just a newly promoted Nascent Soul Nascent Soul. He didn't even own a Tier 5 Spirit Mountain. He wanted to take advantage of the Chen Clan's weakened strength to seize the Chen Clan's Spirit Mountain dojo.

After listening, Chen Nianzhi frowned and said, "Old Granduncle, what's your opinion?"

Chen Changxuan hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Although they are not related to us by blood, I think we should still help them."

"The ancestor of the Chen Clan in the Long River Ancient Domain was already a Golden Core realm cultivator before the Vast Sea was destroyed. Perhaps he knows many secrets."

"Furthermore, we can also use him to confirm who our Chen Clan's first ancestor was."
