After clearing the level, the fairies were reborn!

"My ties with the Ding family are severed; our bond of gratitude is broken, and our obligation to each other is extinguished!"

As she finished speaking, a longsword made entirely of sword intent materialized in her hand, which she pointed at her brow.

That is where the soul resides, the most vulnerable yet most important place for a cultivator.

With this sword strike, the soul will be scattered and never be reincarnated.

Inside the main hall, there was a deathly silence.

Everyone was so shocked by this resolute scene that they were speechless.

Only the sound of wind and snow howling could be heard.

"Crack, snap, snap."

Then came a burst of crisp applause, which came from afar and gradually grew louder.

Everyone was drawn to the applause and couldn't help but turn to look.

The young man walked slowly towards them.

"Everyone says that a fake Western Paradise can't seal the true Great Sage..."

Xu Ze's voice was soft and gentle.

"I see that in this hypocritical Northern Continent, a true sword immortal has emerged."

Chapter 105 Proposal

Xu Ze's voice was clear and gentle, yet it possessed an invisible power that overwhelmed the howling wind and snow outside the hall.

Upon seeing the young man, many people present widened their eyes in surprise.

Isn't this the very person who's been in the spotlight these past few days, but whom nobody wants to mention?!

A month ago, he fought against the horde of zombies, formed his Nascent Soul on the battlefield, and his Dharma form was earth-shattering.

He quickly reached the Nascent Soul and Deity stages, shocking the new sect leader of the Xuanling Sect in the Northern Continent.

Honorary Lord of Donghua City.

Xu Ze.

Why is he here?

The group exchanged bewildered glances, each feeling considerable pressure.

Especially the Valley Master of Flying Snow, who gripped the armrest of the chair so tightly that she almost crushed it.

Even her own disciple, Qing Shuang, was treating this person as an object of contemplation; how could she not care?

"Sect Leader Xu?"

Ding Yuanshan was also taken aback.

His daughter is doing something so outrageous in front of these prominent figures across the continent.

Unfortunately, it was seen by the very person he least wanted to see.

That's right.

There is another crucial reason why the Ding family did not invite Xu Ze this time.

That is, the ancient sect, the Xuanling Sect, which was destroyed tens of thousands of years ago, has recently been rebuilt.

Xu Ze has genuinely obtained the status of being personally taught by the sect leader, and now he has even advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, giving him the right to establish his own sect in the Northern Continent.

His strength goes without saying; just look at the faint pressure emanating from him and that innate confidence.

Even the old monsters in the Void Refinement stage present did not dare to underestimate him.

Therefore, he is now the spokesperson for the Xuanling Sect!

The Xuanling Sect is a mountain that the Ding family has held dear for tens of thousands of years, generation after generation.

After all, during the ancient war between good and evil, they did indeed break their promise and deserted in the face of battle.

The senior officials of Beiju Luzhou all know about this.

Therefore, Ding Yuanshan inexplicably felt a sense of apprehension towards this junior.

He quickly cupped his hands in greeting: "Today is a joyous occasion for my Ding family. Sect Leader Xu has come from afar. I am so sorry for not welcoming you properly."

Xu Ze reached out and pressed lightly, completely ignoring his insincere politeness.

"Great joy? I think it's about to turn from a happy occasion to a tragic one, a comedy into a tragedy."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yuanshan's clasped hands visibly stiffened.

Another collective gasp rippled through the guests.

They've come with ill intentions.

"If I had arrived any later, Fairy Ding would probably have been annihilated and never reincarnated again."

The young man ignored everyone and gently beckoned, summoning the Qingyun Sword from Ding Wan's hand.

This scene made many people's eyelids twitch again.

A natal flying sword is connected to its master's mind and body. Unless the master completely perishes or actively severs the connection, it is extremely difficult for an outsider to summon and control it so easily.

However, Qingyun Sword's closeness and obedience to Xu Ze were almost no less than his obedience to Ding Wan herself!

This shows that this person has a very deep connection with this sword!

So what exactly is his relationship with Ding Wan?!

"Om-"

The silver-white flying sword seemed to have met its savior, excitedly circling around Xu Ze.

"You've arrived."

Only then did Ding Wan seem to recover from the enormous shock and somewhat dazed state.

Her long eyelashes trembled, and her beautiful eyes, which had been lifeless and resolute, now reflected the young man's figure, and she lowered them slightly.

Ding Wan also did not want to see Xu Ze here.

Because she didn't want the only person in the world who truly cherished her to see her in such a predicament.

Ding Wan hoped that the image of her in Xu Ze's mind would remain that of someone from a little over a month ago.

Just like the portrait she secretly carved at the bottom of the snow-capped mountain.

In everyone's life, there are always some unforgettable moments.

This can even give people the illusion that we are not always alive, but only live in certain 'moments'.

"I'm here." Xu Ze smiled calmly.

"You shouldn't have come," Ding Wan sighed softly.

"But I'm already here."

The young man reached out and grabbed the flying sword, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he slowly spoke: "Moreover, I'm here for only one thing."

The air seemed to freeze once again.

All the whispers, all the angry gasps, even the sounds of wind and snow outside the palace, seemed to be wiped away by an invisible hand at this moment.

All eyes were fixed on Xu Ze, holding their breath and waiting for his next words.

Even Zhuge Wuxin, the 'Holy Son' of the Divine Mechanism Sect who had remained silent all along, narrowed his aged eyes slightly.

His right hand quietly retracted into the wide sleeve of his robe, his fingers moving rapidly at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye.

He attempted to use the "Heavenly Calculation" technique, a secret art passed down through the Divine Mechanism Sect, to glean what Xu Ze was about to say and predict how things would unfold.

However, just a breath later.

Zhuge Wuxin's fingers, which were twirling, suddenly froze!

For the first time, a noticeable change in expression appeared on his seemingly young face—a mixture of disbelief and deep-seated fear.

I can't calculate it! I simply can't calculate it!

Blank!

His proud deductions and causal calculations, upon which he relied for survival, were utterly useless against the young man before him!

"How is this possible?!"

"He must possess a supreme treasure that conceals the secrets of heaven, probably already at the level of a spiritual treasure, to be so incredibly powerful..."

Zhuge Wuxin was, after all, an old fox who had lived for nearly ten thousand years.

He quickly figured it all out.

But so what?

In this degenerate age on the Tianyuan Continent.

Even if he can only unleash the power of the peak of the Fusion Realm now, it is still enough for him to look down on all living beings and dominate the world!

"I wonder... what is it?"

Ding Yuanshan tentatively opened his mouth.

He was now unsure what the young man was up to.

Xu Ze smiled slightly:

"I've come to propose marriage."

"Propose marriage?" For some reason, upon hearing this, Ding Yuanshan felt a sense of relief.

Thankfully, it's not like they're trying to cause trouble or anything like that.

"I wonder which woman from my Ding family has taken a fancy to, Sect Leader Xu? I will make the decision and choose an auspicious day for the two of you..."

Xu Ze did not answer, but simply raised his wrist and pointed in a direction with the Qingyun Sword in his hand.

There was nothing else in that direction.

There was only one person.
