"Since we have arrived at Black Water Island, let's part ways for now. I still have matters to attend to, so I won't disturb the two of you any longer."
Not willing to stay any longer, Xiao Chen prepared to take his leave.
Who knew, Xia Luo, who had been displeased with Xiao Chen along the way, interjected before Yue Bingyun could say anything, "Young Master Mo, since we are already at Black Water Island, why the rush to leave? Don't refuse to give me face. No matter what, I have to do my duty as a host. "
It was hard for me to bear with you for such a long time. Now that I've finally reached my territory, it won't be easy for me to leave.
Xia Luo steeled his heart. No matter what method he had to use, he had to make Xiao Chen stay, to let him know the consequences of interrupting him.
Xiao Chen looked at Xia Luo's expression. When the other party raised his eyebrows, he knew what Xia Luo was planning.
Originally, he didn't want to cause any more trouble, but now he was really angry. If you want to play, I'll play with you. Let's see who cries more in the end.
He immediately smiled and said, "Is that so? As a super city of the Black Sea, I have long been curious about Black Water City. Since Young Master Xia is willing to entertain me, I will not leave."
Xia Luo sneered in his heart. You are smiling now, but when the time comes, you won't even be able to cry even if you want to. However, Xia Luo put on a warm expression.
Yue Bingyun, who was at the side, was very smart. Naturally, she knew what Xia Luo was thinking. However, she did not feel worried for Xiao Chen.
Given Xia Luo's level, he was too naive to think that he could play such tricks on Xiao Chen.
In the Heavenly Starry Ocean, the Holy Scions of the Immortal Holy Lands were all traumatized by Xiao Chen. A declining clan with a glorious ancestor was far from sufficient.
In her heart, she also looked forward to the matter of the Heavenly Origin Pill that Xiao Chen left behind. However, due to Xia Luo sticking to her, it was not convenient for her to ask about it.
I should have a chance to ask Xiao Chen about it when I check into the inn tonight.
Night came earlier in the Black Sea than in other places. In the middle of the night, through the dark clouds, apart from a hazy bright moon, no stars could be seen.
Dong dong dong!
Knocking came from the door to Xiao Chen's room. Xiao Chen, who was cultivating cross-legged, opened his eyes and sent out his Spiritual Sense. It was Yue Bingyun.
Xiao Chen opened the door with a wave of his hand and said indifferently, "I thought you had forgotten about the Heavenly Origin Pill. It looks like you still remember."
Yue Bingyun walked over and asked softly, "How is it? Did you succeed?"
Whoosh!
An exquisite jade bottle flew towards Yue Bingyun. Yue Bingyun's slender, snow-white hands gracefully caught the jade bottle.
Yue Bingyun opened the jade bottle and gently sniffed it. Her usually calm face could not help revealing a trace of joy. She closed the bottle cap and said, "Many thanks, Xiao Chen. This time, I owe you a huge favor."
"There's no need to be so polite. It's not difficult for me to refine this Heavenly Origin Pill. After all, you've prepared a hundred sets of materials. No matter what, you'll succeed at least one set. "
Xiao Chen appeared rather calm at Yue Bingyun's excitement. He would not be able to gain too much advantage from this woman. If he could draw a line between them, it would be best to do so.
Yue Bingyun put away the jade bottle and did not dwell on this topic. She glanced at Xiao Chen and asked, "I wonder, why did Young Master Xiao appear in the Black Sea? Do you have a plan?"
Naturally, Xiao Chen would not tell her his plan. He smiled and said, "My appearance in the Black Sea is easy to explain. What about you? As the Lunar Palace's Holy Daughter, why did you come out alone? Are you not afraid of an accident?"
Yue Bingyun smiled and said, "As the Lunar Palace's Holy Daughter, barring any accidents, I will be the next Lunar Palace Master. Naturally, the person in charge of the Lunar Palace cannot be a flower vase in a greenhouse. The Black Sea is the best cultivation ground for the Blue Robed Emperor. It is not strange for me to be here. "
Xiao Chen kept feeling that the other party definitely had a purpose for appearing in the Black Sea. Since Yue Bingyun was not willing to say, naturally, he would not keep asking.
The two chatted casually for a while. Then, Yue Bingyun stood up and took her leave. Before she left, she suddenly turned her head back and said, "You had best not leave Black Water City before the fifteenth of next month. Otherwise, you might miss out on something that you will regret for life."
Before the fifteenth, Xiao Chen thought of the invitation in his hand. His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly chased after Yue Bingyun. "Are you talking about the Jadeite Mountain Manor's ceremony?"
This time, it was Yue Bingyun's turn to find it strange. "How did you know about this? Right now, not many people know about this."
Xiao Chen took out his invitation. Yue Bingyun received it and took a look. Then, she smiled and said, "You are really confident. The Manor Lord of this Jadeite Mountain Manor even prepared an invitation. Do you really think that you will succeed? Are you not afraid of making a fool of yourself?"
"What exactly is it? Can't you tell me a little in advance?"
Yue Bingyun shook her head and said, "I really can't tell you this. Otherwise, if something unexpected happens, it will not be good for either of us. You just have to remember not to leave Black Water City before the fifteenth of next month. If you are lucky enough, your chances of advancing to Martial Emperor in five years will be much higher. "
When Xiao Chen heard this, he suddenly felt the invitation in his hand become exceptionally heavy.
The mysterious Yue Bingyun had piqued Xiao Chen's curiosity to the extreme. However, the other party was not willing to reveal anything.
"Hehe! It is not late anymore. You should stop cultivating and have a good sleep. Have a good dream." Yue Bingyun smiled sweetly. Unconsciously, she revealed a perfect air that could topple all living things, one that could topple cities.
Xiao Chen was not in the mood to appreciate it. He smiled bitterly and said, "Do you think that I can sleep peacefully with my current curiosity?"
Yue Bingyun bit her lip and pondered. After hesitating for a while, she looked at Xiao Chen and said, "Very well. I can only tell you that the Jadeite Mountain Manor's ceremony this time has something to do with a Divine Weapon. Furthermore, this Divine Weapon has a strong connection to the Heart of an Emperor."
After sending off Yue Bingyun with his eyes, Xiao Chen still could not figure out the connection. He knew too little.
"Ao Jiao, what do you think it is?"
"If I guessed right, the ceremony should be for the Jadeite Mountain Manor to have a Divine Weapon enter the Divine Weapon Ranking, becoming one of the ten strongest Divine Weapons in the world. There have been many such ceremonies in history."
Xiao Chen suddenly understood. Aside from this, there was indeed no other ceremony that could be connected to a Divine Weapon.
Divine Weapons could rival Emperor Grade Secret Treasures. There were many of them, but only ten of them could enter the Divine Weapon Ranking, known as Transcendent Divine Weapons.
Transcendent Divine Weapons could intimidate Sovereign Martial Emperors, comparable to Primordial Emperor Grade Secret Treasures.
As far as Xiao Chen knew, the Saber Sovereign Wu Xiaotian and the Sword Sovereign Liu Xiaoyun dared to fight with Primes because they had the Coiling Monarch Time Saber and the Scarlet Firmament Void Sword.
This showed how strong the Transcendent Divine Weapons on the Divine Weapon Ranking were.
After figuring this out, the other clues immediately made sense. The merchant group that Xiao Chen saw when he entered the Black Sea should be carrying the supplementary divine materials for breaking into a Transcendent Divine Weapon.
Xiao Chen also understood why Yue Bingyun appeared. As far as he knew, the Startling Phoenix Zither, a Transcendent Divine Weapon ranked tenth on the Divine Weapon Ranking, was in the hands of the Lunar Palace.
If another Divine Weapon succeeded in breaking into a Transcendent Divine Weapon, the Heavenly Phoenix Zither, ranked tenth, would definitely fall.
The reason was none other than the fact that only ten Divine Weapons were allowed on the Divine Weapon Ranking. As long as a new Divine Weapon made it into the Divine Weapon Ranking, the one ranked last would definitely fall, becoming an ordinary Divine Weapon.
Yue Bingyun's purpose in coming here was to stop the Jadeite Mountain Manor's Manor Lord from breaking into a Transcendent Divine Weapon, preventing the Startling Phoenix Zither from falling off the Divine Weapon Ranking.
When Xiao Chen thought about it carefully, the Lunar Palace probably sent people to look for the pirates that came to rob the merchant ship.
With this connection made sense, all the clues connected in Xiao Chen's mind. He now understood the entire sequence of events.
All that was left was the connection between the Divine Weapon and the Heart of an Emperor. This was simple. He just needed to find out the origins of the Divine Weapon that the Jadeite Mountain Manor possessed.
"Ao Jiao, thank you," Xiao Chen said with a smile, revealing joy on his face.
Ao Jiao, who was in the Immortal Spirit Ring, smiled faintly and said, You cannot see clearly because you are closely involved. Given your intelligence, if you were a bystander, you would definitely be able to see more clearly than me.
"Bang!"
Just at this moment, just as Xiao Chen was about to answer, the door to the room suddenly shattered. A strong, knife-like wind blew in.
