Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian Return

"They've finally arrived. I thought they'd have to wait a while longer."

Chu Feng's lips curled up slightly, and he said with a disdainful look, "Ever since the three Three Ancestors divided the Hongyuan Continent into four continents three years ago..."

The Spiritual Qi across the entire continent is decreasing, with the most significant decrease occurring in the three continents. Conversely, the decline in Spiritual Qi in the Central Continent is the least severe, even amidst frequent wars.

If this ebb and flow continues, one day the Spiritual Qi of the three continents will be completely incomparable to that of the Central Continent, and the fortune of the entire Hongyuan Continent will be inherited by the Central Continent.

By then, the three races will completely withdraw from the struggle for supremacy on the Hongyuan Continent. The three races have been fighting for more than ten years and have been planning for more than a hundred years, so naturally they will not let the duck that is in their hands fly away.

Especially considering that the Sword Ancestor and Body Ancestor of the Famous Sword Holy Land and the Tyrant Fist Holy Land had suppressed the three races of Demon God.

These Three Ancestors had no choice but to take action. Even though their injuries had not yet healed, they were determined to fight with all their might for their ultimate dream.

Seeing that his master completely disregarded the Three Ancestors, Ji Jiuwu asked, "Master, are you going to take action to suppress the Three Ancestors?"

"Good."

Chu Feng laughed and said, "This farce should end now. If those three old geezers continue fighting, I'm afraid they'll ruin the entire Hongyuan Continent."

He still wanted to attain the highest Dao, so he couldn't just stand by and watch the Three Ancestors wreak havoc on the entire continent. If any Extraterrestrial Heavenly Demon came, he might not be able to stop them.

"I wonder what the Three Ancestors's goal was?"

Ji Jiuwu muttered to himself.

Chu Feng laughed and said, "That's obvious, it's naturally our Dao-Seeking Sect."

Upon hearing this, Ji Jiuwu was completely dumbfounded. He had originally wanted to watch a good show, but he didn't expect his master to tell him that this grand show would take place in their Dao-Seeking Sect.

He asked with a puzzled look, "Master, why is it my Dao-Seeking Sect, and not somewhere else?"

Good question.

Chu Feng explained unhurriedly, "Jiuwu, close your eyes and use the True Essence of the Great Dao to sense where the strongest fortune is in the entire Central Continent."

Ji Jiuwu did not do as Chu Feng said. Without even thinking, he replied, "Master, do you still need to ask? It must be our Dao-Seeking Sect. I already checked it with the Heaven-Observing Mirror before."

"Then let me ask you, what is the great struggle of this world?"

Chu Feng planned to test his eldest disciple. It wasn't enough to just guide him in cultivation; he also wanted to teach him how to be a Human Emperor.

"Nature is land and resources."

Ji Jiuwu didn't understand why his master would ask this question; weren't these all common sense?

"Yes, but not entirely."

Chu Feng paused deliberately. "As the saying goes, the struggle of a great era is about the fate of the world. If all three races had the fortune to possess, it would not be impossible for them to suppress the entire Hongyuan Continent. But now the three races have made a wrong choice. They all want to leave themselves a way out and have divided the Hongyuan Continent."

As rulers, this choice was not wrong, but it also meant that their three races lacked great fortune. If they didn't seize fortune from the other hundred races, they would find it difficult not only to defeat the other two races, but also to maintain their current status. At the current rate, the three races would surely decline within a thousand years.

hiss...

Ji Jiuwu gasped instinctively and asked, "Master, is this battle for destiny really that mysterious?"

"Good."

Chu Feng smiled and said, "I will summon your two senior brothers back now. It's time to compete with the three clans."

His tone was so calm, but it made Ji Jiuwu's blood boil with excitement.

Ji Jiuwu said, "Master, I don't know why I've become so passionate."

"Hahaha..."

Chu Feng laughed heartily and said, "That's the right thing to do. Let's go tell your junior brothers this news so they're aware of it and won't be caught unprepared."

"Promise."

After Ji Jiuwu responded, he left with his master.

Before long, all the disciples of the Dao-Seeking Sect learned of this matter. Upon hearing that their master was going to take action to suppress the Three Ancestors, everyone's face was filled with excitement.

Meanwhile, within the Famous Sword Holy Land.

Xiao Chen received the message from Chu Feng. Upon seeing the message, excitement appeared in his eyes, and he immediately called all his disciples to his side.

"Jian Yi and Jian Sheng, step forward."

"Disciple is here!"

The two walked out of the crowd together. The other disciples looked on with envy at the sight. The eldest and second eldest brothers had both received their master's true teachings and were now Dao Integration cultivators. They would soon be able to comprehend the True Essence of Sword Dao.

Xiao Chen waved his hand, and two wooden slips appeared in his hand. He said calmly, "The two of you will draw lots today. The one who draws the longer slip will return with me to the ancestral land to pay respects to your grandmaster. The one who draws the shorter slip will hold my Sword Jade and guard the Famous Sword Holy Land."

These words caused an uproar among the disciples present. They never expected that their master had summoned them here today for this very reason.

This wasn't the first time they'd heard their master mention the ancestral land, but each time it had been mentioned before, their master had only said that he came from the Dao-Seeking Sect, without saying anything more.

A disciple cupped his hands and asked, "Master, may I accompany you to the ancestral land?"

The surrounding disciples also showed expectant looks on their faces upon hearing this.

Xiao Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Then three of you will be chosen to go with me. The drawing of lots will be decided later."

"Thank you, Master."

The disciples said with delight.

Jian Yi and Jian Sheng fixed their gazes on the two wooden sticks. They slowly raised their hands, but before they even touched the sticks, their hands began to tremble.

Seeing their expressions, Xiao Chen chuckled and joked, "There's no need to be nervous. This time, I'm just taking you to visit our master. You can go in the future too."

Upon hearing this, the two breathed a sigh of relief, eager to see just how extraordinary their great master truly was.

The drawing of lots ended quickly. Jian Sheng looked at the long slip of paper in his hand and exclaimed with ecstasy, "I won! I won!"

Jian Yi, standing to the side, looked disappointed. Xiao Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Yi, you will be in charge of the next draw. We will depart in seven days. The Famous Sword Holy Land is now in your hands. This is also a test for you. If you can satisfy me, you can become a sword disciple of my Famous Sword Holy Land."

Upon hearing this, Jian Sheng's smile vanished instantly, but the thought of seeing his grandmaster brought it back to his face.

Jian Yi nodded vigorously and said, "Master, your disciple will certainly not let you down."

Wanli away, in the Tyrant Fist Holy Land.

Cao Youqian, who was holding the hand of a five or six-year-old girl, suddenly felt the communication jade at his waist light up. He picked it up, glanced at it, and an excited smile immediately appeared on his lips.

"This day has finally come."

Hearing this, Lei Ruoxi asked curiously, "Husband, what brings you here?"

After Cao Youqian suppressed two Demon God, Cao Youqian Lei Ruoxi chose to stay by his side and even gave birth to a daughter for him.

Cao Youqian said with a smile, "I'm planning to go back to my ancestral homeland. Do you want to come with me or stay in the Tyrant Fist Holy Land?"

Lei Ruoxi's eyes darted around after hearing this, and finally she said, "I want to stay."

The Tyrant Fist Holy Land is now divided into two factions: one led by her, supporting her daughter Cao Ying to inherit the Tyrant Fist Holy Land in the future; and the other led by Thunder Qilin, supporting Xia Kang to inherit the Tyrant Fist Holy Land.

Cao Youqian could easily see through Lei Ruoxi's thoughts, but he was too lazy to point them out. He smiled and said, "Alright, then this time I'll take Ying'er, Kang'er, and Da Lei with me to the ancestral land. I'll leave this place to you."

After saying that, Cao Youqian handed a jade pendant to Lei Ruoxi, saying, "This contains my Nine Strikes. I originally wanted to leave it to Ying'er, but now that she's with me, she doesn't need it, so I'm leaving it to you."

Upon hearing this, Lei Ruoxi took the jade pendant without hesitation. Cao Youqian didn't say anything more; this short-haired, naive woman continued to play with her child and didn't reveal a single word of what her master had instructed her to Lei Ruoxi.

Even though this woman is already his bedmate, there's no guarantee that she won't do anything detrimental to the sect.

Seven days later, Cao Youqian rode the Thunder Qilin, carrying Little Ying'er, and set off from the Tyrant Fist Holy Land to the Dao-Seeking Sect. Xia Kang was still sitting miserably on the Thunder Qilin's feet.

In just one day, Cao Youqian arrived at the foot of the Dao-Seeking Sect Mountain. As soon as they stopped, they heard the sound of wind not far away, along with a familiar voice.

"Daqian, you got here really fast!"

Upon hearing the sound, Cao Youqian immediately jumped off Thunder Qilin and turned to look at the sky. Xiao Chen descended from the sky with four disciples. He smiled and said, "Senior brother, you're not slow either."

After saying that, he pinched Ying'er's little cheek and said, "Quickly call him Uncle."

Ying'er sweetly called out, "Uncle."

Xiao Chen then noticed the little girl and replied with a smile, "Hey, Daqian, you're something else, you even have a child."

Cao Youqian chuckled, "Hehe, senior brother, you don't know who I am. Let's go, let's make our master happy for me too."

"Walk."

Xiao Chen and Cao Youqian chatted and laughed as they led their disciples into the Dao-Seeking Sect...
