Happy life in the world of film and television

Chapter 1726 Dongfang Huaizhu and Wuquan Hongye

Tang Ruyun hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

A moment later, Jiang Chen led Tang Ruyun to a room.

After Tang Ruyun sat down, Jiang Chen asked, "Tang Ruyun, is your coldness towards Duan Banxia because of your fox clan?"

"Young Master Jiang, I don't know what you're talking about." Tang Ruyun's expression changed slightly.

“You know,” Li Feng said without hesitation, “When I rescued you in the underground city, I already knew you were a fox clan member. It’s no big deal. I won’t react differently to you because of your different race, as long as you don’t harm the interests of my Jiang family. I think you should also feel that it would be easy for my Jiang family to deal with a fox clan member like you who doesn’t cultivate.”

Tang Ruyun fell silent.

Just as Jiang Chen said, she couldn't possibly deal with the power of Jiang Chen and his family.

But how did Jiang Chen know?
"Tang Ruyun, the reason I'm telling you all this is simply to let you go of the past and settle down. If you don't feel comfortable living in Guangping City, I can find another place for you to stay," Jiang Chen said.

"Young Master Jiang, what is your purpose?" Tang Ruyun asked.

“Duan Banxia has the ability to see ghosts, and I want her to join the Jiang family and become a cultivator in the Jiang family.” Jiang Chen did not hide his purpose.

"This..." Tang Ruyun fell silent.

“Our Jiang family also has demons. As long as you don’t do anything to harm the interests of the Jiang family, you can live as an equal in the Jiang family,” Jiang Chen continued.

Jiang Chen and Tang Ruyun talked for an hour.

After letting Tang Ruyun leave, Jiang Chen called Yue Siying and the others over for a meeting.

Jiang Chen recounted his discoveries on the Worry-Free Continent during this period.

"So, the Worry-Free Continent has demon slayers and monsters, but no immortal cultivators? No true cultivators?" Yue Siying asked hesitantly.

“Yes, at least I haven’t encountered any. But there might be cultivators.” Jiang Chen said, “Next, find some people; I need to train a group of Imperial Guards.”

“I will arrange it,” Yue Siying said.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded and told him about the underground city and the Worry-Free Realm.

"The Underground City, the Realm of No Worries?"

Yue Siying and the others were very curious.

“I’ve been to the dungeon, but I don’t know the specifics.” Jiang Chen took out a pass token and said, “If you’re interested, you can get it. Of course, you can try exploring the secret realm, right?”

“Okay.” Shen Bi agreed without hesitation.

……

Taiyun Continent, in a city.

"What a coincidence." Jiang Chen appeared in front of Dongfang Huaizhu.

"You, what are you doing here?" Dongfang Huaizhu stammered.

"Why can't I be here?" Jiang Chen retorted.

"..." Dongfang Huaizhu.

"Not welcome?" Jiang Chen asked.

"No." Dongfang Huaizhu shook her head.

"I knew you'd welcome me," Jiang Chen said with a smile.

"Eastern Huai Bamboo".

Just then, a voice came from the side.

"Hmm?" Jiang Chen turned his head to look.

Yang Yitan is a character in "The Bamboo Pavilion on the Huai River".

In the drama, he is one of the "masks," codenamed Three Senses Divine Lord. He comes from the Yang family of Heavenly Eyes. The Yang family enters the Dao through observation, and the clansmen have Heavenly Eyes on their foreheads. The more they see, the more powerful their cultivation becomes. He is born with divine eyes and can perceive the flow of the enemy's Qi and see through the opponent's weaknesses. He can also copy the enemy's magic through his Heavenly Eyes. He and his organization members fight for justice and are quite famous in the martial arts world.

"Dongfang Huaizhu, who is he?" Yang Yitan asked in surprise when he saw Jiang Chen.

"My name is Jiang Chen. And you are?" Jiang Chen introduced himself.

"Yang Yitan." Yang Yitan said his name, then said to Dongfang Huaizhu, "The boss has arrived at the inn."

"I understand." Dongfang Huaizhu looked at Jiang Chen.

"Are you staying at an inn?" Jiang Chen asked.

“Yes,” Dongfang Huaizhu said.

"I'll come find you later," Jiang Chen said.

Dongfang Huaizhu nodded and left with Yang Yitan.

"I never expected to run into Dongfang Huaizhu here."

Jiang Chen stared at Dongfang Huaizhu's figure, his eyes flickering.

An hour later, Jiang Chen arrived at the inn.

In the inn, Jiang Chen saw Dongfang Huaizhu, Yang Yitan, and Wang Quan Hongye.

"And who is this?" Wang Quan Hongye asked when he saw Jiang Chen.

"Tai Yuncheng, Jiang Chen of the Jiang family," Jiang Chen introduced himself.

"Taiyun City? Is that the city that just appeared?" Wang Quan Hongye asked.

“Yes.” Jiang Chen was not surprised that Wang Quan Hongye knew about Tai Yuncheng.

Taiyun City has been completed.

The next step is to develop external platforms.

Yixiu and his group are not blocking the news now.

"Taiyun City was built by your Jiang family?" Yang Yi sighed, surprised that Jiang Chen was from Taiyun City. After news of Taiyun City spread, the Yang family had been trying to find out more information, but they had only managed to gather very little.

“Yes.” Jiang Chen did not deny it.

"What brings you here, sir?" Wang Quan Hongye asked.

"Oh, I'm here to look for Huaizhu," Jiang Chen said.

"Are you looking for Miss Dongfang?" Wang Quan Hongye asked Dongfang Huaizhu.

Feeling Wang Quan Hongye's gaze, Dongfang Huaizhu's beautiful eyes sparkled.

“Yes.” Jiang Chen came to Dongfang Huaizhu’s side and took her hand.

Dongfang Huaizhu struggled for a moment, but failed to break free.

Wang Quan Hongye's gaze sharpened upon seeing this scene.

Yang Yitan glanced at Dongfang Huaizhu, then at Wang Quan Hongye.

He had known Wang Quan Hongye for so long that he could naturally tell that Wang Quan Hongye liked Dongfang Huaizhu, but now...

Something's up here.

"Is there anything else you haven't resolved?" Jiang Chen asked Dongfang Huaizhu.

“No, that’s all,” Dongfang Huaizhu replied.

“Then let’s go to your room to talk.” Jiang Chen ignored Wang Quan Hongye, or rather, Jiang Chen did so on purpose.

Although it's unclear how the relationship between Dongfang Huaizhu and Wang Quan Hongye has progressed due to his interference, as the male and female leads in the drama, they are destined to be together.

“Okay.” Dongfang Huaizhu didn’t want to talk to Jiang Chen here either. She felt awkward having Wang Quan Hongye here.

After greeting Wang Quan Hongye and Yang Yitan, Jiang Chen followed Dongfang Huaizhu into her room.

“Brother Wang Quan, this Jiang Chen and Dongfang Huaizhu have a rather unusual relationship,” Yang Yitan said to Wang Quan Hongye.

Wang Quan Hongye remained silent.

But his eyes shone brightly.

Meanwhile, in Dongfang Huaizhu's room.

"What's wrong?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

"What, you don't want to see me?" Jiang Chen approached Dongfang Huaizhu step by step.

Seeing this, Dongfang Huaizhu became nervous: "I, I didn't..."

"is it?"

Jiang Chen put his arm around Dongfang Huaizhu's waist and then said, "So you want to see me?"

"I, I..." Dongfang Huaizhu couldn't express her desire to see Jiang Chen, so she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"I miss you."

Jiang Chen whispered in Dongfang Huaizhu's ear, "I originally intended to go to Shenhuo Mountain Manor to find you, but I didn't expect to run into you here. This is a good thing."

"We...we want to go outside the circle and see what it's like," Dongfang Huaizhu said.

"Outside the circle?" Jiang Chen smiled and said, "I know about outside the circle, but I don't think that exploring outside the circle will solve the problem."

"Why?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

"The 'Circle' is a crucial boundary separating two regions on the Taiyun Continent. It was drawn on the earth by the Third Young Master of Aolai Kingdom using a capricious staff. Its purpose is to isolate all impure energy outside the circle to protect the humans and demons within. Any creature outside the circle that attempts to cross it will be annihilated. Therefore, the world outside the circle is depicted as a barren land plagued by constant war, with an environment similar to an undeveloped, wild continent, forming a stark contrast to the vibrant scene inside the circle."

Jiang Chen paused, then continued, "Based on the information I know, extraterrestrial beings generally possess a singular mindset; their sole purpose is to devour and evolve each other. The Black Fox is one known extraterrestrial being that lives by disrupting the reincarnation and continuation of the Tushan Red Thread Fairy and absorbing the host's power. Among extraterrestrial beings, it is likely a lower-level existence. The Golden Dawn is another extraterrestrial being that can directly occupy the host's consciousness and use the host's power, and can attach itself to multiple individuals simultaneously. It is also singular in mind, stubbornly pursuing a single path to its death. In addition, there are some relatively less threatening pseudo-extraterrestrial fish in the outer edges of the extraterrestrial area."

"In ancient times, creatures from outside the circle were the masters of this continent, while humans and demons were merely pigs and dogs."

Of the creatures outside the circle, Jiang Chen can only remember five. The first is the Black Fox. The Black Fox looks very powerful. Sometimes it is in its true form, and sometimes it is in its seaweed form. But overall, the Black Fox has never won. First, it was frozen by Tu Shan Ya Ya. After escaping, it was scared away by Bai Qiu En's Wang Quan Sword. Finally, it was beaten into oblivion by the Third Young Master of Ao Lai. It seems that it can only run away.

The second is to rely on it.

In the drama, Tu Shan Ya Ya was defeated by the Black Pool, and Bai Yuechu took Tu Shan Ya Ya to hide in a cave. In the cave, the creature from outside the circle, Yi, appeared. Yi was the only creature from outside the circle that faced them head-on, and judging from its strength, it was not simple. Just one of its clones could hold off the Black Pool for three hours, something Bai Yuechu could not do. Moreover, Yi had countless clones.

The third is Jin Chenxi.

Golden Dawn exists in the form of a golden liquid. Its main ability is to control people's minds. Once someone falls under Golden Dawn's control, Golden Dawn will slowly devour them. Its strength is exceptionally powerful. Even Bai Yuechu almost fell for Golden Dawn's trick.

Fourth is the Black Pool.

The strongest creature from outside the circle that Jiang Chen knows of so far, even Tu Shan Ya Ya in the story, is no match for the Black Pool. She was completely overwhelmed by the Black Pool, losing all her demonic power. Not only that, Tu Shan Ya Ya also reverted to her childhood form. From what we've seen so far, the Black Pool's ability is to devour its opponent and gain their power. This skill is extremely powerful. Tu Shan Ya Ya is currently hiding and running away to avoid being found and devoured by the Black Pool.

The fifth is Tianjiao (a person of exceptional talent).

This is a creature from outside the circle, belonging to the category of "representative beasts." It is a collection of the consciousnesses of deceased humans and demons from outside the circle, and is especially associated with the emotion of "pride." It can infect its target with the illusion of "unparalleled power" through mental infection. It has affected Wang Fugui, Bai Yuechu, and the Southern Kingdom Princess, but it has no effect on Tu Shan Susu.

Jiang Chen told himself the whole story.

Jiang Chen didn't hide anything from Dongfang Huaizhu. "How do you know so much?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

"I naturally have my own channels."

Jiang Chen looked at Dongfang Huaizhu and said, "You won't gain anything by trying to explore the outside world now. Well, mainly because your strength is too low. Moreover, whether humans and demons can coexist peacefully is not based on maintaining the status quo, but on strength. Only with sufficient strength can humans and demons maintain peaceful coexistence."

Dongfang Huaizhu remained silent.

"How's your practice of the basic breathing techniques coming along?" Jiang Chen asked.

"It's alright..." When it came to cultivation, Dongfang Huaizhu seemed a little excited: "However, I've found that I can't improve my strength during this period."

"That's because I need to practice other techniques," Jiang Chen said.

"Do I need to cultivate other techniques?" Dongfang Huaizhu was slightly taken aback.

“Yes, I can teach you right now,” Jiang Chen said.

"..." Dongfang Huaizhu looked at Jiang Chen without saying a word.

"You don't want it?" Jiang Chen asked.

"What are your conditions?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

"You are my fiancée. What are the conditions for me to teach you cultivation?" Jiang Chen countered.

"..." Dongfang Huaizhu.

Dongfang Huaizhu does not believe that there are no conditions.

Jiang Chen taught Dongfang Huaizhu the Nine Heavens Blazing Fire Technique.

Oriental bamboo possesses the fire attribute.

Therefore, Jiang Chen taught Dongfang Huaizhu the Nine Heavens Blazing Fire Technique.

"Shall we try cultivating it?" Jiang Chen said.

"Okay." Dongfang Huaizhu nodded.

Soon, Dongfang Huaizhu began cultivating.

One hour later.

Dongfang Huaizhu opened her eyes.

"How are you feeling?" Jiang Chen asked.

"It feels great," Dongfang Huaizhu said.

"Then do you believe I can improve my strength as soon as possible?" Jiang Chen asked.

"Can you improve your strength as quickly as possible?" Dongfang Huaizhu looked at Jiang Chen with some anticipation.

“Yes.” Jiang Chen nodded.

"Is it about taking pills?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

“No.” Jiang Chen shook his head, then approached Dongfang Huaizhu.

Dongfang Huaizhu was a little nervous.

Jiang Chen pinched Dongfang Huaizhu's chin and then kissed her.

Dongfang Huaizhu struggled for a moment.

But under Jiang Chen's persuasion, Dongfang Huaizhu quickly gave up the struggle.

Jiang Chen smiled.

He had previously taught Dongfang Huaizhu basic breathing techniques to increase Dongfang Huaizhu's favor towards him. In addition, considering the two times he saved her life (saving Dongfang Qinlan and Dongfang Churi), Dongfang Huaizhu would not refuse even if it was just to repay the debt of gratitude.

"Let's take it a step further then."

Jiang Chen untied Dongfang Huaizhu's belt and began teaching her the Free and Unfettered Heavenly Technique.

……

Not far from Dongfang Huaizhu's room, Wuquan Hongye looked at Dongfang Huaizhu's room with a gloomy gaze.

"Still not out?" Yang Yitan asked, looking at Dongfang Huaizhu's room.

Wu Quan Hongye remained silent.

A moment later, Wu Quan Hongye turned and left.

……

Dongfang Huaizhu's room.

One hour later.

"This is your first time, so let's stop here. Otherwise, you won't be able to get up tomorrow," Jiang Chen said.

"We're not even married yet, how could you..." Dongfang Huaizhu couldn't finish her sentence.

“We’re already engaged; this is just a step ahead,” Jiang Chen said.

"..." Dongfang Huaizhu.

What do you mean by "just one step ahead"?
Is this a question that arose a little earlier?

"Here, put this on." Jiang Chen took out a top-grade glass-type jadeite bracelet.

"What is this?" Dongfang Huaizhu asked.

“This is our Jiang family’s identification token. You just need to do as I say,” Jiang Chen said.

"I understand." Dongfang Huaizhu nodded.

He was granted the certification of the Holy Clan and bestowed the title of Junior Envoy.

Dongfang Huaizhu became the 213th member of the Jiang family.

Well, the 212th member of the Jiang family is Lin Wan'er. Not long after Jiang Chen had his way with Lin Wan'er, he officially recognized her. However, Hua Chunran and Li Maozhen have not yet been officially recognized.

"Our Jiang family..." Jiang Chen held Dongfang Huaizhu and talked about the Jiang family, while his hands were trying to win over Dongfang Huaizhu.

"The Jiang family..." Dongfang Huaizhu no longer had time to stop Jiang Chen, because she was stunned by what Jiang Chen said about the Jiang family.

The information about the Jiang family was beyond her imagination.

Dongfang Huaizhu spent that night in shock.

The next morning, Dongfang Huaizhu opened her eyes.

"Awake?" Jiang Chen looked at Dongfang Huaizhu.

"Hmm." Dongfang Huaizhu glanced at Jiang Chen, then yawned. "We should get up."

"Mm." Jiang Chen nodded and pulled back the covers.

"Ah..." Dongfang Huaizhu exclaimed in surprise.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Chen asked.

"No, it's nothing..." Dongfang Huaizhu's face flushed slightly, and she didn't dare to look at Jiang Chen.

"Help me change my clothes," Jiang Chen said.

"Me? Changing clothes?" Dongfang Huaizhu pointed to herself.

“Yes, you are my woman, isn’t it only right that you help me change my clothes?” Jiang Chen said.

"Oh, okay." Dongfang Huaizhu got out of bed and helped Jiang Chen change his clothes.

Jiang Chen was very satisfied.

Having Dongfang Huaizhu help him change his clothes was also a way to further subdue Dongfang Huaizhu.

After washing up, Jiang Chen and Dongfang Huaizhu left the room.

"Shh, shh..."

Wu Quan Hongye and Yang Yitan looked over.

Seeing Jiang Chen and Dongfang Huaizhu come out together, Wu Quan Hongye's face turned extremely ugly.

"Dongfang Huaizhu, Jiang Chen, who are you?" Yang Yitan couldn't help but ask.

“Huaizhu and I are engaged,” Jiang Chen said.

"I see."

A look of surprise and understanding flashed in Yang Yitan's eyes.

Wu Quan Hongye turned and left.

Jiang Chen glanced at Wu Quan Hongye but said nothing.

After having breakfast with Dongfang Huaizhu at the inn, Jiang Chen said goodbye and left.

After bidding farewell to Dongfang Huaizhu, Jiang Chen continued northward.

One hour later.

"We've finally arrived."

Jiang Chen looked into the distance.

"Ow."

A dragon's roar resounded.

"This is Long Weiyun's mother."

"A mother dragon."

Jiang Chen took a deep breath and walked over: "My name is Jiang Chen, and I'm here to make friends."

Swish!
A woman appeared in front of Jiang Chen.

That is, Long Weiyun's mother.

"I wanted to invite you to my home before." Jiang Chen took out a jade bottle and opened it in front of Long Weiyun.

"How did you get this?" Long Weiyun's mother asked in a deep voice.

"This...it's hard to explain in a few words, but I can show you something." Jiang Chen took out a photo and threw it at Long Weiyun's mother.
