Zhu Xian: Get ten times the talent, the sword opens the gate of heaven

Seeing Zhang Xiaofan about to leave, Xiaohuan grabbed his arm with both hands, looking reluctant to part with him.

"Brother Xiaofan, you've only been here for half an hour, why are you leaving so soon? Xiaohuan will miss you."

Zhang Xiaofan ruffled Xiao Huan's hair, his face full of affection, and said:
"We may meet anywhere in the world, but if we are destined to, we will meet again."

Xiao Huan paused for a moment upon hearing this, then shook her head and said:
"Brother Xiaofan, Xiaohuan feels that although we are destined to meet and often run into each other, the time we spend together is always too short."

“Every time you leave, Xiao Huan misses you for a long time.”

As she spoke, Xiao Huan lowered her head shyly.

It took a lot of courage for Xiao Huan to say these words.

She was too shy to say it at first, but Xiao Fan's departure made her even sadder, so she mustered up her courage and boldly spoke it out.

Listening to Xiao Huan's words, Zhang Xiaofan knew that this girl had fallen in love with him.

Oh, his damn charm.

Xiao Huan is still young, only seventeen or eighteen years old. He, a man of twenty-eight or twenty-nine, simply couldn't bring himself to do it.

Although there are even couples in the cultivation world where the man is a hundred years older than the woman, an eleven-year age difference is nothing.

However, Zhang Xiaofan still felt that Xiao Huan was too young, and he couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

If Xiao Huan were a few years older, and the other party were so proactive, he would definitely have taken her on immediately.

But not now.

Zhang Xiaofan looked at Xiao Huan, who was shyly lowering her head while her arms were wrapped around his, and said gently:
"Xiao Huan, I have important matters to attend to. Brother Xiao Fan promises you that after I become an immortal and resolve all these important matters, I will come to find you immediately and take you to play for a while, how about that?"

"Really?" Xiao Huan was overjoyed upon hearing this and looked up at Zhang Xiaofan expectantly.

Zhang Xiaofan looked down at that delicate and pure face, gently stroked Xiao Huan's pert nose, and smiled:

"Don't worry, I mean what I say."

"Then... pinky promise," Xiao Huan said, extending her little finger.

"Ha..." Zhang Xiaofan hadn't played this game in a long time, and he found it interesting, so he stretched out his little finger and hooked it with Xiao Huan's little finger.

Xiao Huan's little finger was tightly hooked around Zhang Xiaofan's little finger, as if afraid he would leave and never come back. While hooking it, she said:

"Hang yourself with a hook and don't change for a hundred years!"

"stamp!"

After saying that, he gently pressed his thumb against Zhang Xiaofan's thumb, stamping it on his face.

After making a pinky promise, Zhang Xiaofan looked at Xiao Huan and said:

"Now you can rest assured."

"Okay, I'm relieved." Xiao Huan nodded happily.

"Haha..." Zhang Xiaofan laughed and walked out of the tea stall.

However, just as he stepped out of the tea stall, he suddenly remembered something, turned around and looked at Zhou Yixian, saying:
"Seniors, which direction are you going?"

A tipsy Zhou Yixian pointed and replied:

"North, near Qingyun Gate, in the direction of Luoyang City."

"No!"

"Why?" Zhou Yixian's body trembled. Although he was still drunk, his old eyes were full of shrewdness.

Zhang Xiaofan looked in the direction of the Ghost King Sect and said:
"Because the Ghost King has now completed the Four Spirits Blood Array, and the Heavenly Fiend King on the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron has awakened. The Ghost King is obtaining the power of Asura, or has already obtained the power of Asura."

"At that time, wherever the Ghost King goes, whether ordinary people or cultivators, they will be affected by the power of Asura, lose their minds, and become his puppets." "Then, he will head north and attack Qingyun Sect."

"hiss!"

Zhou Yixian's expression changed drastically, and he gasped, saying:
"That guy, Wanrenwang, has actually completed the Four Spirits Blood Array and is about to obtain the power of Asura."

"I also know a lot about the Four Spirits Blood Array. It requires capturing the four ancient spirits alive: Kui Niu, Jiutian Xuan Niao, Zhulong, and Taotie, who is beside the Beast God."

"These four ancient spirits, except for Taotie, are all terrifyingly powerful, comparable to human cultivators in the early stages of the Taiqing realm. None of them are easy to defeat, let alone capture alive."

"Just how lucky is this guy, Wanrenwang, to have captured the Four Ancient Spirits alive?"

Jin Ping'er also looked solemn at this moment, because she also knew about the guardian beast Zhulong of the Holy Church's Wilderness Temple.

As the guardian beast of the Holy Sect, Zhulong possessed astonishing abilities, yet the Ghost King managed to capture it alive.

It seems that the Ghost King's strength has grown tremendously over the past decade.

Oh, right, Master...

Jin Ping'er suddenly looked worried and anxiously asked Zhang Xiaofan:
"Zhang Xiaofan, Master sent word that the Ghost King recently sent the Hehuan Sect of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect to meet with him at the Ghost King Sect, and then together they attacked the Qingyun Sect."

"Now you say that the Ghost King has obtained the power of Asura, and that power of Asura can turn people into puppets. Doesn't that mean that once the Hehuan Sect goes there, they will all fall into the Ghost King's trap, lose their minds, and become the Ghost King's puppets?"

"Zhang Xiaofan, I'll go to the Ghost King Sect with you. I must save my master."

Looking at Jin Ping'er's anxious face, Zhang Xiaofan had always felt that she was calm and composed no matter what happened, and her charming face always wore an air of confidence.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing that Madam Sanmiao was in danger, he immediately changed his usual demeanor and his face showed signs of anxiety.

It seems that Madam Sanmiao holds a significant place in Jin Ping'er's heart.

No, the quantity?
Lady Sanmiao's influence is indeed considerable...

Zhang Xiaofan looked at the anxious Jin Ping'er and said:

"Alright, let's go to the Ghost King Sect together."

Zhou Yixian stroked his long white beard, looked at Zhang Xiaofan gratefully, and said:

"I do appreciate your reminder. Based on my understanding of the Four Spirits Blood Array and the power of Asura on the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron, even I am no match for the Ghost King after he obtains the power of Asura, unless it is the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Array of the Azure Cloud Sect."

"However, I heard that Dao Xuan Zhenren of Qingyun Sect was seriously injured after his battle with the Beast God and disappeared a few days later."

"If the Ghost King, who has obtained the power of Asura, were to attack Qingyun Sect, and with no one in the sect capable of activating the Zhuxian Sword Formation, Qingyun Sect would be in grave danger."

At this point, Zhou Yixian glanced at Xiao Huan reluctantly, gritted his teeth, and said:

"Very well, now that no one in the Qingyun Sect can activate the Zhuxian Sword Formation, then I will sacrifice my old bones to kill that Ghost King."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaofan shook his head and said:

"Senior, have you perhaps forgotten me?"

Zhou Yixian looked at Zhang Xiaofan and said with a look of understanding:
"The Ghost King is Biyao's father, and you are Biyao's husband. You treat Biyao very well, and Biyao is willing to give up her life for you. You are a loving couple."

"If you go to Qingyun Sect to activate the Zhuxian Sword Formation, even though you possess five volumes of Heavenly Books, you will not be corrupted by the Zhuxian Sword's malevolent energy."

"However, since you activated the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation to kill the Ghost King, Biyao will hate you for the rest of her life and will never be able to be with you again. And you, who are loyal and righteous, will feel guilty for the rest of your life."

At this point, Zhou Yixian stood up, looked in the direction of Qingyun Sect, and said:

"I've lived long enough, so let me do the most important thing in this world."
