Whoo!
The space nearby vibrated a bit, and a gray shadow appeared there.
"Head master! The third and fifth master have brought them back! The leader of the Murong family has also come with them. " The gray shadow's voice was very vague. If one did not know where he was, it would be hard to tell where the voice was coming from.
The middle-aged man ordered, "Arrange a place for them to stay. Also, send someone to watch over them. Without my permission, do not let them step out of the Yuwen family."
"Understood!"
"Also, get Ye back and let the two of them get to know each other better. Although there is no more suspense in this marriage, if they can develop feelings for each other, it would be even better. If they do, no one would be able to stop them."
The middle-aged man was actually a little bit worried, worried that something might happen. For him, this marriage would not allow any accidents to happen. Once it was done, no matter if it was the Yuwen family or him, they would both benefit a lot. Two perfect demi demon bloodlines combined would also give birth to children with perfect demi demon bloodlines. If there were two of them, then the Yuwen family would have four perfect demi demon bloodlines. Plus, all four of them would be on his side. So, his great-grandfather and the head master would definitely side with him.
"Head master, should we use the Shadowless Poison on the leader of the Murong family? With it, the success rate would be even higher, and that little girl would be more obedient." The gray shadow suggested.
The middle-aged man thought about it for a while, then nodded, "You will do it. Remember, do it secretly."
"Yes!"
"Alright! You go do what you need to do first!"
Hearing him, the gray shadow left without a sound.
Turning around, the middle-aged man looked up at the blood colored crescent moon in the sky, "I hope it does not come to that. But, if it does, then it would not be my fault. This marriage can only succeed, and no failure is allowed. Whoever dares to stop it would be going against me."
As the main family of the demi demon race, the Yuwen family had the most population, reaching a shocking four hundred thousand. With such a huge population, there were naturally a lot of buildings. In the hundreds of miles radius around the abyss, there were all kinds of buildings.
In a luxurious courtyard at the edge of the core region, two beautiful women were sitting on stone chairs and chatting.
She was about thirty-eight or thirty-nine years old. Between her eyebrows, there was a charm that only a mature woman could have. An emerald green jewel hung from her earlobes, and she was wearing a luxurious dark green dress. Opposite of the mature woman was a much younger woman in a purple dress. Her face was covered with a veil, and through the contours of her face, one could see that she was somewhat similar to the mature woman. However, in comparison, she was more stunning. She had a pair of slightly purple pupils that were like two light purple gems. Her eyelashes were slender and curved, and her hair was like a waterfall.
The latter was Murong Qingcheng.
"Qingcheng, do you think that brat will really come?" The mature woman did not hold any hope.
Murong Qingcheng was a little absent-minded. She took a sip of tea and said, "Since father went to find him, he will definitely come. I know him."
"Oh! Is it for you? "
The mature woman showed an ambiguous smile on her face.
Murong Qingcheng blushed, "Not necessarily. Anyway, he will come. But it might not be entirely for me."
"It would be great if he comes. Otherwise, you will really have to marry that Yuwen Ye." The mature woman did not look happy, "The Yuwen family is way too aggressive. They said that they invited you, but they were actually threatening you. Luckily, your father was not there that day. Otherwise, he would have to fight with the third and fifth master of the Yuwen family. With his power alone, I am afraid he would not be able to win against them."
Murong Qingcheng said with determination, "Whether he comes or not, I will not marry Yuwen Ye. Worst case scenario, I will just die." Pausing for a second, she said again, "Mother, why did you come? If you come, I am afraid that they will use you to threaten me."
The mature woman was indeed Murong Qingcheng's mother, Murong Zhishui's wife. Her name was Su Ruhui. She forced a smile and said, "Do you think that if I did not come, they would let you go and threaten you? I am afraid that it would be even worse. Plus, I am the former third daughter of the Su family, so they would not be too reckless. "
There were more than twenty demi demon families in total, and the Su family was one of them. Different from the Murong family, the Su family was way more powerful than the Murong family, at least in the top five. No matter how aggressive the Yuwen family was, they would have to show some respect to the Su family.
"Plus, I also want to meet your father's old lover." Su Ruhui loved Murong Zhishui a lot. As the former third daughter of the Su family, when she chose to marry Murong Zhishui, there were a lot of obstacles. But in the end, she succeeded. However, there was still a knot in her heart. She knew that there was someone else in Murong Zhishui's heart, and that person was his first lover.
Murong Qingcheng asked curiously, "What will you say when you see her?"
"Nothing much. I just want to see what kind of person she is. My eyes are very accurate." Su Ruhui laughed.
"Oh right, I have not seen that brat yet. When he comes, I will take a good look at him for you as well."
…
The wind was blowing, and it was sharp like blades.
Four seven-meter-long Red Eyed Birds flew at an extreme speed, shuttling through the clouds. Because of the extreme speed, a layer of air appeared two meters in front of the birds. It was very thick, and was formed by countless compressed air particles. It was a natural barrier.
Inside the air layer, Ye Chen and the rest were all sitting on the back of the birds.
The journey was too long, so they would occasionally wake up from their training mode and say a few words. But most of the time, they were training and adjusting their breathing.
The back of the birds was very wide. Even with the three of them sitting on it, it still looked very spacious. If they squeezed a little, it could easily fit dozens of people.
Ye Chen was sitting a bit to the right in front of him.
"When I first reached the Sea of Souls Realm, my slaughter sword spirit and that normal sword spirit had both been strengthened quite a bit. The slaughter sword spirit was only rank 4, which was comparable to normal rank 5 sword spirits. But because of the huge increase in soul power, it naturally reached the peak of rank 4. But, the normal sword spirit had been nourished by a huge amount of soul power, so why did it not reach the sword spirit level? It was just a bit more powerful."
Ye Chen could not quite understand it.
Opening his eyes, Ye Chen let out a breath. His deep eyes went through the air layer and looked at the world outside, where the clouds were rolling and changing.
Right then, Murong Zhishui had also stopped training. Seeing Ye Chen's pondering expression, he chuckled, "You are so hardworking! I always see you thinking."
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "There are too many things that I do not understand. It seems like the more powerful I am, the more things I do not understand. Even some of the simple things that I have experienced before, I do not understand much anymore."
"Oh!" Murong Zhishui was a bit surprised, "You are right. The more powerful I am, the less I understand this world. Before, we could only see the surface, and thought that it was everything. But now that we know the essence, we realize that the surface is just like a floating cloud."
"Essence? Floating cloud? "
A beam of light flashed through Ye Chen's mind, as if something had suddenly become clear. He was afraid that the inspiration would disappear soon, so he immediately closed his eyes and entered the training mode.
Murong Zhishui was shocked, and then smiled bitterly. He shook his head and also started training.
"Essence, right, I have never paid attention to the essence of the sword spirit. The sword spirit is the condensed sword intent, which is the will, which is the external expression of the soul power, which is equivalent to the power of the soul. Since I want to condense the sword spirit, it must be related to the soul power. I have never thought about this before. The reason why I can condense the slaughter sword spirit is because it is natural, not intentional."
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
In fact, this sound did not exist at all. It was simulated automatically in Ye Chen's mind, and only Ye Chen could hear it.
Above his soul sea, next to the dark red slaughter sword spirit, there was a rather illusory ancient longsword. This ancient longsword was the sword spirit embryo.
Next to the sword spirit embryo, a silver hammer was hitting the sword spirit embryo, bringing out illusory silver sparks.
The silver hammer was created by the soul power.
A smile appeared on Ye Chen's face. Just as he had expected, the sword spirit embryo's density had increased. It seemed slow, but it was actually a couple of times faster than before.
Murong Zhishui's unintentional words had solved a problem for Ye Chen. Since the essence of the sword spirit was the external expression of the soul, then using the soul power to train it would be the perfect way to train the sword spirit, right?
"Oh right, since I could think of it, why didn't the Battle King think of it?"
Ye Chen suddenly thought of this question. According to the information that the Battle King had sent into his mind, training the sword spirit was all about learning and using more, but not training.
"Is it because they can't do it? After reaching the Life and Death Realm, although the soul power would increase drastically, the rank of the sword spirit would be higher as well. So, the soul power would still not be able to train the sword spirit. "
After thinking about it, Ye Chen felt that this was the only explanation. It was because his soul power was five times more powerful than the other Sea of Souls Realm warriors, which was why he could condense his soul power into the shape of a hammer and hit the sword spirit embryo. But, the other Sea of Souls Realm warriors would not be able to do it. Even the Battle King could not do it when he was at the Sea of Souls Realm. Once he reached the Life and Death Realm, although his soul power would be more powerful, but the rank of his sword spirit would be higher as well. So, he would not be able to do it either.
"It seems like this is my talent, and no one else can learn it."
Regardless, Ye Chen was in a good mood. He had found a shortcut to speed up the development of his sword spirit.
Time passed quickly, day and night alternated.
On the seventh day after Ye Chen had learned the essence of the sword spirit, the Red Eye Beast carried everyone to the Eastern region. Right then, there was only one million miles left before they reached their destination, the Gu Lan Region.
Ting!
The moment the night arrived, a sword ting sound echoed in Ye Chen's head.
Seven days ago, the vague sword spirit embryo had finally been completely condensed. If the sword spirit embryo was an iron sword that was not that sharp, then the completed sword spirit would be a great sword. The edge of the sword was extremely sharp, and the light of will power was like the cold light of the sword, making people's hearts skip a beat.
"The second sword spirit, done!"
Ye Chen abruptly opened his eyes. The dark sky suddenly brightened up, as if a flash of lightning had flashed across the sky, or a beam of sword light had appeared.
