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

Zhang Xiaofan stood high in the sky, holding the Blood Demon Sword in his hand.

He could sense the terrifying ferocity of the Blood Demon Sword, as well as the massive amount of blood within it.

This will be his biggest trump card.

This sword strike will determine who wins and who loses, who lives and who dies, between him and the mysterious immortal.

However, the stronger one's cultivation level, the greater the power of this sword strike will be.

Therefore, he will go to Qingyun Sect to help Naiqi become a pseudo-immortal, and then use that to nourish himself. When his immortal power increases greatly, he will have more confidence in dealing with the mysterious true immortal.

With this in mind, Zhang Xiaofan flew towards the Central Plains, thousands of miles away.

……

Li Xun walked step by step from the Incense Valley toward the Central Plains.

Although he progressed step by step, he is now a cultivator at the first level of the Upper Clarity Realm, possessing a powerful physique.

Therefore, they walked extremely fast and never rested.

In just two days, they arrived at a village in the Middle Kingdom.

The village has about a hundred households. He saw several hundred such villages during his two-day journey.

Moreover, he was at the Shangqing realm, capable of abstaining from grains by relying on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so he did not intend to linger and walked straight through the village towards the front.

However, when Li Xun looked into a field, his body trembled and he stopped in his tracks.

In the farmland, a handsome man, who looked like a refined scholar, was weeding.

Beside him, an ordinary-looking farm girl was wiping away sweat that hadn't appeared on the man's face.

After all, with the man's cultivation at the Shangqing realm, he wouldn't break a sweat even if he were pulling weeds under the scorching sun.

As Li Xun looked at the man, the man seemed to sense something and looked at Li Xun on the path with gentle eyes.

Li Xun trembled. He knew that the seemingly scholarly man in front of him was none other than Qin Wuyan, the Poison Prince, one of the three young masters of the Demonic Sect.

His cultivation had reached the Shangqing realm, and he was skilled in using poison. Even though he was always arrogant, he was no match for his opponent in a one-on-one fight.

Li Xun couldn't understand why the other person was weeding with a farm girl here, nor could he understand why the other person's gaze was so gentle, no longer as cold as before.

However, regardless of the opponent's situation, Li Xun remained tense, as if facing a formidable enemy, ready to strike at any moment.

Even if you can't beat your opponent, escaping is still a piece of cake.

Seeing Qin Wuyan staring at the man on the path, the farm girl asked curiously:
"Wu Yan, do you know him?"

Qin Wuyan smiled gently and said:
"Qingqing, he was a good friend of mine. Go and kill one of the chickens in the house. I want to have a few drinks with Brother Li."

"Okay!" Qingqing said, then looked at Li Xun on the path and said:
"Young master, you chat with Wu Yan first, I'll go home and kill a chicken to treat you."

Li Xun was taken aback upon hearing this. He glanced at Qin Wuyan, who had a refined smile on his face, then bowed respectfully to the peasant girl and said:
"Li Xun thanks you very much, sister-in-law."

The farm girl smiled and said:
"Brother Li, what are you saying? You are a good friend of Wu Yan, and it is only basic courtesy for us to entertain you. Please don't thank me."

After the farm girl finished speaking, she hurried home.

In her opinion, it was rare for her husband, Wu Yan, to have a good friend visit, so she had to treat him well.

Oh, and I killed the fattest and biggest hen in the house.

Qin Wuyan looked at Li Xun, who was standing on the path with a puzzled expression, and said:

"Brother Li, could you help me pull the weeds?"

Li Xun thought for a moment, then said:
"of course can."

After saying that, he took off his shoes, rolled up his trouser legs, and stepped into the farmland with his fair feet to start weeding.

Li Xun pulled weeds for a while, then suddenly asked:

"Brother Qin, why are you weeding here, and why are you so familiar with that farm girl from earlier?" Qin Wuyan replied while weeding.
"The Ten Thousand Poisons Sect has been destroyed, and I had nowhere else to go. By chance, I met Qingqing and we became husband and wife."

"Husband and wife?" Li Xun looked at the refined and handsome Qin Wuyan. He considered himself a handsome man, but compared to Qin Wuyan, he was still inferior in appearance.

So he asked:

"Brother Qin, you are highly skilled and exceptionally handsome. Why would you take a fancy to an ordinary farm girl? Could it be that she has some leverage over you?"

"No, even if she has something on you, you can kill her with a flick of your finger, why bother?"

Qin Wuyan smiled, thinking of the past, and said, "I have never liked fighting. My ruthlessness in the past was out of necessity."

"Now that the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect has been destroyed and the Poison God is dead, I am free."

"On that day, I was seriously injured and both my legs were broken, and I had no magic power. I met Qingqing, who was fleeing. Qingqing was just a woman. She dragged me on a cart for half a month. Her shoulders were torn open by the wooden strips of the cart, and the wooden strips were stained red with blood."

"How could I let down such a good woman, so..."

At this point, Li Xun suddenly interjected:

"And so you gave yourself to him!"

Qin Wuyan smiled and said:

"That's true... haha..."

Li Xun hadn't expected Qin Wuyan to have such an experience. But considering that Qin Wuyan had given up everything to marry a farm girl, he lowered his guard against him somewhat.

So, after the two of them finished pulling up the weeds in the field, they picked up their shoes and, with their legs covered in mud, headed towards Qin Wuyan's house.

Qin Wuyan's home consisted of three thatched huts, with a courtyard paved with bluestone in front, and a small pond that Qin Wuyan had cultivated in front of the courtyard.

Just as the two reached the small pond, Qingqing, who was in the kitchen, saw them. Upon seeing Li Xun covered in mud, she immediately said:

"Wu Yan, you've come from afar, why did you let Brother Li pull weeds with you?"

Before Qin Wuyan could answer, Li Xun quickly replied:
"Brother Qin and I are like brothers, our relationship is very close, pulling weeds is nothing."

After saying that, Li Xun and Qin Wuyan went to the small pond to wash the mud off their feet, and then walked barefoot into the courtyard.

It was dusk, and there was a table in the courtyard with a jar of sage and a few side dishes on it.

The two then sat down opposite each other at the table.

"The chickens are here!"

At this moment, Qingqing placed a large bowl of fragrant chicken on the table and said:
"Brother Li, Wu Yan, you can start eating!"

Upon hearing this, Li Xun looked at Qingqing and said:

"Sister-in-law, you should eat with us too."

Upon hearing this, Qingqing looked at Qin Wuyan.

Qin Wuyan nodded and said:
"Sit down and eat with us. We're all family here. Brother Li doesn't mind, so you shouldn't either."

"Okay." Qingqing replied and immediately sat down below, picking up her bowl to eat.

Li Xun listened to Qin Wuyan's words and thought to himself that this was indeed the case.

He didn't care whether Qin Wuyan would poison him to death, so Qingqing naturally didn't need to care either.

After all, besides his profound cultivation, Qin Wuyan's skill in using poison was unparalleled in the entire cultivation world, except for the deceased Poison God.

While eating, Qin Wuyan suddenly asked:

"Brother Li, you were staying in Incense Valley perfectly fine, why did you suddenly come to our village?"
