Master, You've Misunderstood

Ding. Congratulations, host. You have obtained one Advanced Strength Experience Card, one Talisman Ancestor Collection Guide, and one Disguiser's Robe.

Advanced Strength Experience Card: After use, you can temporarily gain the strength of the Reincarnation Stage. Time limit: ten minutes.

Talisman Ancestor Collection Guide: Collect all eight Ancestral Talismans of the Tianxuan Continent to receive a mysterious reward.

Disguiser's Robe: The user can disguise themselves as any person for one hour, but it is only effective against those weaker than the user.

Looking at the rewards he had gained from the lottery, Chen Xuan was very satisfied.

The Advanced Strength Experience Card could let him experience Reincarnation Stage strength for ten minutes.

Even if it was only ten minutes.

That was enough.

This was his strongest life-saving trump card!

However, what satisfied him the most...

Was still the Disguiser's Robe, which could let him disguise himself as anyone.

It gave him a new plan for taking revenge on Lin Dong!

His gaze shifted, and he discovered that his emotion points had also risen from the initial few hundred.

They had increased to 3,869 points.

However, he was still quite a way off from the 5,000 emotion points needed to upgrade the mall.

The current Yellow Rank Mall could only purchase superior martial arts at most.

He needed to upgrade it to the Xuan Rank Mall before he could purchase Creation Grade martial arts and Earth Rank Spirit Treasures.

Chen Xuan turned his gaze to the Lucky Prize Wheel.

One draw cost 100 emotion points.

Inside it, there were good things like Pure Yuan Treasures and Heavenly Martial Arts that could only be purchased in the Heaven Rank Mall.

It was just that the probability was extremely low.

Chen Xuan decided to take a gamble. "System, draw!"

Ding. Congratulations, host. You have obtained 1,000 Yang Yuan Pills from the draw.

No, wait. I'm already in the Nirvana Realm.

What use were Yang Yuan Pills to me?

Chen Xuan continued, "System, draw again!"

Ding. Congratulations, host. You have obtained the Pure Yuan Treasure, Tetanus Blade, from the draw.

What?

Tetanus Blade?

A Pure Yuan Treasure?

One slash gives tetanus, two slashes sends them to their ancestors, is that it?

Seeing that he had drawn a Pure Yuan Treasure, Chen Xuan decisively stopped.

On the system's pending-claim page...

There was a treasured sword covered in rusty patterns, its entire body giving off a rotten aura.

It had no sense of vitality at all.

He clicked to check the effects of the Tetanus Blade.

Sure enough.

It was about the same as he had understood.

Anyone cut by the blade of this Tetanus Blade...

At best, their strength would plummet and their soul would be injured.

At worst, their entire body would be corroded by its incurable rot, and they would die after suffering endless torment.

With it...

In future battles, if he landed a slash on his opponent, his odds of victory would increase by a few points!

Afterward, Chen Xuan returned to his room.

And cultivated for the entire night.

Early the next morning, Chen Xuan headed for the courtyard where the Palace Lord of Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace resided.

He arrived outside the palace gates.

A beautiful middle-aged woman stood shoulder to shoulder with an exceptionally lovely young woman.

And this beautiful middle-aged woman

was the current Palace Lord of Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace.

A super expert at the Samsara Stage!

One of the strongest people in the entire Eastern Xuan Region.

At that moment, the middle-aged woman looked at the approaching Chen Xuan with a hint of affection in her eyes.

As the lord of a palace, the thing she was most satisfied with in this life

was taking Chen Xuan as her disciple!

And, moreover, arranging for him to marry her beloved disciple, Qingzhu.

It gave the future of Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace two more powerful guarantees.

"Disciple Chen Xuan greets Master."

Chen Xuan bowed to the middle-aged woman.

He hesitated for a moment.

In the end, he still said, "Greetings, Senior Sister."

"Xuan'er, congratulations. To have broken through to the Nirvana Realm at such a young age."

The middle-aged woman saw through Chen Xuan's strength at a glance.

"It is only thanks to Master's guidance that this disciple has today."

Chen Xuan also offered a polite formality.

The middle-aged woman nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile, "You came to see me today. Have you encountered some problem in your cultivation?"

At that moment, she did not know what had happened to Ling Qingzhu in the Great Yan Dynasty.

Clearly, Ling Qingzhu had not told her either.

At that moment, he noticed that when Ling Qingzhu looked at him, there was a little more surprise in her eyes.

She definitely had not expected that he would actually come to find Master.

They were both direct disciples, and his strength was even greater than hers.

Master had no reason not to agree.

Chen Xuan said respectfully, "Master, there is something I need you to decide on."

"Oh? What is it?"

"The fate between Senior Sister Qingzhu and me has come to an end. I ask Master to make the decision and allow us to separate."

No sooner had Chen Xuan finished speaking

than—Ding. Ling Qingzhu generated panic. Emotion Points +50.

Ding. Qin Xiuqing generated surprise. Emotion Points +50.

Qin Xiuqing was the name of the Palace Lord of Nine Heavens Taiqing Palace.

When she heard Chen Xuan's words, she could not help being shocked.

She knew that Chen Xuan liked Qingzhu very much.

Back then, the moment he heard that she intended to betroth Qingzhu to him, even though they could not consummate the marriage for the time being, he had still been happy for a long while.

But they had only been married for a year.

Why did he suddenly want to separate?

As she thought about it, a trace of anger surfaced on Qin Xiuqing's face.

Could it be that he could not bear the loneliness and wanted to consummate the marriage with Qingzhu, only to be refused?

Was that why he had come to her to ask for a separation?

After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he kept a close eye on Qin Xiuqing's expression.

The moment he noticed her expression change slightly, a system notification rang in his ears.

Ding. Qin Xiuqing generated anger. Emotion Points +100.

Was she angry?

She couldn't be thinking he was fickle, that he'd grown tired of the old after seeing something new.

Or even...

That he had tried to forcefully consummate things with his senior sister and failed, and that was why he had come running to demand a divorce?

If that was really the case...

Then he could only tell the truth.

Just then, Ling Qingzhu, who was off to the side, beat him to it. "Junior Brother, are you going to abandon me after having me?"

At this moment...

She displayed the image of a poor, bullied victim...

To absolute perfection!

Ding, Ling Qingzhu developed feelings of grievance. Emotion Points +50

Seeing this...

Chen Xuan was completely stunned.

No, what kind of act was this?

Had you been possessed or something?!

The Ling Qingzhu from the original novel wasn't this kind of scheming girl!

Were you doing this on purpose?

Sure enough, after hearing her words...

Qin Xiuqing first froze.

Immediately after...

She looked at Ling Qingzhu in disbelief. "Qingzhu, you... what did you just... just say?"

"N-Nothing..." Ling Qingzhu hesitated, as if wanting to speak but stopping herself.

Qin Xiuqing shouted, "Speak!"

Ling Qingzhu bit her red lip with her pearly teeth, her acting exploding once more. "This disciple... this disciple lost her purity."

"?!"

Putting Ling Qingzhu's words together, front and back...

Qin Xiuqing naturally took the person who had taken Ling Qingzhu's body to be Chen Xuan.

In an instant, a terrifying aura suddenly swept out from within her.

Ding, Qin Xiuqing developed feelings of fury. Emotion Points +999

From the emotion value she triggered, as high as 999, it was obvious that at this moment, she was furious.

Her rage soared to the heavens!

Chen Xuan also sensed a wave of killing intent erupting from Qin Xiuqing.

The next second...

Qin Xiuqing said with an oppressive aura, "Chen Xuan! Have you forgotten what I told you back then? Before Qingzhu completed the Tai Shang Sensing, you were not to consummate your marriage with her!"

"Master, you've misunderstood. The one who took Senior Sister Qingzhu's virginity was not me." Chen Xuan absolutely refused to take the blame for this.

"You say it wasn't you? Then who was it?"

Qin Xiuqing frowned.

Chen Xuan said, "It was not this disciple. It was someone else. As for who, I'm afraid only Senior Sister Qingzhu herself knows best."

Ding, Ling Qingzhu developed feelings of panic + anger + shame and other emotions. Emotion Points +199
