After clearing the level, the fairies were reborn!

But will I ever have the chance to become the legal wife?

There should be... a chance, right?

The little girl started to have random thoughts, and her face turned slightly red.

At the same time, Xu Ze tried out the few system functions that were available.

For example, [closing the mountain gate].

After Xu Ze clicked, the entire Xuanling Sect ruins began to tremble instantly. The glowing bricks, tiles, and magic array patterns gradually receded and eventually disappeared completely.

Unless one steps inside personally, it is difficult for outsiders to perceive the special nature of these ruins.

It's almost as if they've 'hidden' themselves.

"It's quite convenient."

Seeing the results, Xu Ze nodded, indicating his satisfaction.

Thinking that he didn't have any disciples for the time being, he took the little girl back to Donghua City.

Right now, there are more important things to do.

……

At the entrance of Donghua City.

Countless monks and common people are still kneeling in worship, and the construction of a memorial statue for today's events has already been put on the agenda.

The people of the city were extremely grateful.

As Xu Ze's figure fell to the ground.

The Lord of Donghua City, an elderly man in the Nascent Soul stage, personally came out to greet them.

"Thanks to the protection of Immortal Xu and Fairy Ding, Donghua City would probably cease to exist without you two."

Once upon a time, he also followed the lead of the Song family, after all, they had a patriarch at the Refinement stage.

The result? A moment of life and death.

We didn't even see a shadow of them!

This completely disheartened the old man, who declared that Donghua City would never again have any dealings with these hypocritical families or sects.

"Lord of the City, you are too kind."

Xu Ze had just seen the old man.

Although he didn't fight on the front lines, he at least protected the people in the area behind him, and he didn't run away like those righteous people who were worse than pigs and dogs.

That's already quite rare.

After all, he's only a thousand-year-old Nascent Soul cultivator, what more do you want from him?

"I'd like to ask you something."

Chapter 99 The Correct Use of the Supreme Yang Body

"Please speak, Immortal Xu. As long as I know the answer, I will tell you everything without reservation."

Upon hearing Xu Ze's question, the Lord of Donghua City immediately showed great enthusiasm.

This elderly man with white hair, dressed in a blue Taoist robe and wearing a jade crown, was old but had an upright posture and a calm demeanor.

He truly embodies the 'righteous' spirit.

"It's about that female swordswoman. Do you know anything about her engagement?" Xu Ze asked bluntly.

This is the thing he cares about most right now.

No matter what system upgrade or rebuilding the glory of the Xuanling Sect... none of it matters.

"I see that the female swordswoman from the Ding family has a close relationship with you, how could you not know?"

He glanced at Xu Ze, then at Mu Qinghe beside him, a knowing look flashing in his eyes.

Clearly, the old city lord had misunderstood something.

However, he quickly began to explain in detail: "I can say that I know this matter very well, and I understand the ins and outs clearly."

"Just now, I received an invitation from the Ding family."

"An invitation?" Xu Ze was taken aback.

Seeing his interest, the Lord of Donghua City took out a gilded invitation from his sleeve and handed it to him with both hands.

Turning the pages, lines of small, gold-embossed text come into view:

"Ding's Proclamation"

"Now there is Ding Zhaoxue, the eldest daughter of the Ding family. She is thirty-six years old, her sword intent has reached its peak, and her beauty is unparalleled."

"The Holy Son of the Divine Mechanism Sect is exceptionally talented and has the appearance of an Emperor."

"The two families have been on good terms for generations, and it is a match made in heaven. Therefore, on the auspicious day of the eighth day of the ninth lunar month, we will hold our wedding at 'Tianyan Peak' in the far north."

"We sincerely invite all fellow Daoists from Beiju Luzhou to join us in this grand event and witness this auspicious occasion."

……

"On the eighth day of the ninth month this year, will the Holy Son of the Divine Mechanism Sect marry Ding Zhaoxue, the Sword Immortal of the Ding Family?"

Xu Ze stared at the invitation, his eyes growing cold.

Just a short while ago.

The Ding family announced to the entire state that all prominent figures from Beiju Luzhou had been invited.

"Wait, Ding... Zhaoxue?"

Xu Ze suddenly remembered something.

"So, this is the real name her parents gave her?"

Just now, when the teacher was called by this name.

What she displayed was extreme unhappiness and undisguised anger.

Clearly, Ding Wan really hated this name!

"Yes, this is something that has been rumored for a long time," the city lord stroked his gray beard and said patiently:

"Twenty years ago, that female sword immortal also obtained her inheritance here, full of vigor and ambition."

"But because of an arranged marriage within her family, she left the Northern Continent for nearly twenty years... Few young cultivators know about this anymore."

The old man started talking and began to explain the reasons.

“True Immortal Friend, what you just suppressed were the corpses produced by the greatest war in ancient times.”

"At that time, the entire Xuanling Sect was wiped out in order to protect the Northern Continent."

"And the Ding family is the only one that has survived from that time to the present day."

"Perhaps if none of them had escaped back then, the Xuanling Sect wouldn't have been left without even a single survivor..."

The Lord of Donghua City sighed deeply.

"Run away?!"

Xu Ze and the little girl next to him were both stunned.

What do you mean the Ding family ran away?

Next, the Lord of Donghua City recounted the entire legend of the ancient war between good and evil.

Back then, the Ding family was one of the most powerful families in the Northern Region. The patriarch of the Ding family and the sect leader of Xuanling Sect had sworn a blood oath to advance and retreat together, to live and die together.

However, after the outbreak of the great war, the Ding family actually deserted during the most crucial battle...

At that time, the Xuanling Sect Master risked his life, burning his life essence to quell the war, and then cast a 'curse' upon the Ding family with his own life.

No one in the Ding family, for all eternity, will ever be able to enter the realm of 'Mahayana'.

Sure enough, from then on, all the descendants of the Ding family who had the potential to become immortals either died young or died in accidents.

To this day, no one has been able to break this curse.

Ten thousand years later, the descendants of the Ding family deeply regretted their actions.

So, they actually began to place all their hopes on this little girl.

She possessed a strong sword spirit and exceptional talent, so she was named "Ding Zhaoxue," meaning that one day she would be able to clear the name of the Ding family.

"So that's what the name means..."

Xu Ze couldn't help but laugh.

People can actually laugh when they're speechless.

He finally understood why his teacher had changed her name to Ding Wan.

It's not just about independence and strength.

It's because—who the hell would want to accept such a name?

They've been exonerated.

They were wronged, and that's why they were exonerated.

You fucking became a 'cowardly lizard,' causing the annihilation of their entire clan.

How dare you "exonerate" yourself?!

Why do so many shameless things happen in North Continent?

Considering the 'representatives of the righteous path' he had recently encountered, he was completely speechless.

"What about the engagement?" Xu Ze continued to ask.

The city lord paused. Originally, this was a secret, and very few people in Beiju Luzhou knew about it, except for city lords like himself.

But the person before him was simply too dazzling, so he still spoke the truth:

"The so-called marriage contract is because this Holy Son of the Divine Mechanism Sect was calculated by the Divine Mechanism Sect Master, who was known for his unparalleled wisdom, and it was determined that he had the potential to become an Emperor."
