"I didn't expect Brother Chu to be an Alchemy Grandmaster as well. How versatile you are," King Qian said as he walked up to him.
The crowd of cultivators behind him also surrounded him and complimented him.
"Brother Chu, not only are you talented, but you also know how to refine pills. That's amazing. I'm impressed."
"That's right. This old man also knows a little about the Dao of Alchemy, but compared to Fellow Chu, my knowledge pales in comparison."
"Brother Chu, I have a twenty-year-old daughter in my family. She admires you very much. When can you meet her?"
The cultivators were all talking at once.
Some of them even started to promote their daughters.
King Qian's mouth twitched as he looked at the group of cultivators. These embarrassing people did not know how to be reserved at all!
"Brother Chu, I have a daughter who is proficient in the four arts. Do you need me to ask her to keep you company?"
King Qian smiled gently.
The crowd of cultivators was speechless.
They could not be blamed for that. After all, Chu Kuangren's abilities were just too shocking.
Combat strength aside, who could guarantee that they would not experience headaches or fever just from his alchemy abilities alone?
Who could guarantee that they would not experience Heavenly Deterioration Stage Five?
Chu Kuangren's Alchemy Grandmaster abilities were too valuable. As long as he wanted to, he could extend the lives of most cultivators!
That alone was enough to make Chu Kuangren fearless even if he did not have the strength to truss a chicken. On the contrary, many wanted to befriend him.
Facing the enthusiastic King Qian and the crowd of cultivators, Chu Kuangren kept a smile on his face as he dealt with them one by one.
After a while, he looked at Li Xingchen who was beside him. "Brother Li, you contributed a lot in clearing the demonic onslaught yesterday. Thank you for your hard work."
"It's my pleasure. But Brother Chu has given me a surprise today. I didn't expect you to know alchemy as well."
"Hah, I can't survive without some life skills these days."
Chu Kuangren laughed.
"You must be joking, Brother Chu," Li Xingchen said.
Chu Kuangren looked at Li Xingchen and frowned. He felt that Li Xingchen was a little off today, but he could not pinpoint what it was.
Chu Kuangren immediately activated his Eye of Revelation.
However, what he saw made his pupils shrink.
"Eternal Sage King, in a state of possession. After his physical body perished 50,000 years ago, he has existed in the form of a remnant spirit. He cultivates the Eternal Soul Transfer Technique …"
"Li Xingchen's soul is in hibernation …"
Information about the Eternal Sage King flashed past his vision.
As for Li Xingchen, he was only in a state of hibernation.
However, Chu Kuangren breathed a sigh of relief that the other party was still alive. Then, he said calmly, "Brother Li, how about going for a walk with me?"
"How could I dare to refuse Brother Chu's invitation? Please."
The two of them left the side hall and strolled around the palace.
Along the way, the maidservants came and went, and when they saw Chu Kuangren and Li Xingchen, they would respectfully bow to them.
"Greetings, Young Master Chu and Young Master Li."
"Yes."
After a pair of maidservants passed by, Chu Kuangren said, "Brother Li, you've changed. You don't even look at these pretty girls anymore."
Hearing this, Li Xingchen's heart skipped a beat.
Only then did he remember that Li Xingchen used to be a stickler for appearances. When he saw good-looking people, he could not help but take a second look.
However, now that there were so many beautiful maidservants in the palace, he did not even look at any of them. Did this make Chu Kuangren suspicious?
"Brother Chu, you must be joking. In terms of looks, Brother Chu is the most beautiful person in this world. With you here, no one else can enter my eyes."
Li Xingchen laughed and brushed it off.
"You're giving me goosebumps."
Chu Kuangren looked at Li Xingchen strangely.
"Brother Chu, please don't misunderstand. I'm not that interested."
The two of them and Lan Yu came to a garden. Seeing that there was no one around, Chu Kuangren said, "During the battle last night, the demonic cultivators came for the demonic heart, but it has disappeared. Who do you think has it?"
"How would I know?"
"Oh, it's beating in your body. Don't you know?"
Hearing this, Li Xingchen's face froze.
How did Chu Kuangren know that he had a demonic heart?
"Brother Chu, I didn't mean to lie to you, but this demonic heart is very important. I was afraid that you'd think I've strayed into the demonic path, so I hid it from you because I couldn't think of a way to explain it." Li Xingchen quickly explained.
"Alright, stop pretending, Eternal Sage King!"
Chu Kuangren laid his cards on the table. With a thought, the Battle Monarch Domain had already locked onto Li Xingchen, suppressing him.
Even though he was a Sage King, he was still in the form of a remnant spirit. Although he had taken over Li Xingchen's body, Chu Kuangren's Domain still made him feel an immense pressure. It was as if he was a mortal in a swamp, unable to move.
However, the pressure from the Domain was nothing compared to the pressure in his heart. The Eternal Sage King looked at Chu Kuangren in shock, not knowing how Chu Kuangren saw through his identity.
He had just taken over Li Xingchen's body last night!
How could he be seen through today?
This was too fast!
"Brother Chu, what are you talking about, why would I …"
Li Xingchen, no, the Eternal Sage King wanted to say something, but the Domain Energy suddenly increased, pressing him to the ground.
"Get out of Li Xingchen's body!"
Chu Kuangren said coldly.
The Eternal Sage King felt extremely aggrieved. As a Sage King, he had never bowed down to anyone before, let alone kneeling like a dog in front of someone.
Although he did not know how Chu Kuangren did it, he knew that Chu Kuangren's determination meant that he had seen through his identity.
"Chu Kuangren, you better be careful. This body now belongs to Li Xingchen. I'm now one with him, so if I die, he will die too!" The Eternal Sage King said coldly.
"Oh, so you're threatening me now."
"Hmph, so what if I am? What can you do to me? I don't know how you saw through my identity, but if you don't want Li Xingchen to die, you better let me go. "The Eternal Sage King sneered.
The Eternal Soul Transference Technique was very powerful. His remnant spirit had attached itself to Li Xingchen's body, and it had merged with his own demonic heart. The spirit and physical body had merged so perfectly that no one could separate them.
"Just in time, I'll use you to test this thing out."
With a flash of light in Chu Kuangren's hand, a pitch-black chain suddenly appeared. An incomparably gloomy aura suddenly spread out.
This aura made the Eternal Sage King's pupils dilate, and a very uneasy feeling arose in his heart.
"What is this?" The Eternal Sage King asked in shock.
Chu Kuangren did not answer him. He threw the hook end of the chain out, and the chain suddenly became a little illusory as it pierced straight through the Eternal Sage King's body.
At that moment, the Eternal Sage King's expression turned into one of extreme fear. "What are you doing!!"
His remnant spirit began to tremble uncontrollably as if it had met its natural enemy.
"Hmph, come out!" Chu Kuangren snorted coldly, and with a violent tug, the chain flew out from Li Xingchen's body. At the same time, it pulled out a grey-robed, white-haired elder.
This elder was hooked by the hook of the chain and was tightly bound, unable to move. It was the Eternal Sage King's remnant spirit!
"How is this possible? How is this possible …"
