Chapter 1366
If his respect for the Grand Elder was merely ostensible, then his respect for the Zen Joy Immortal, whom he had taken in and raised from childhood, was genuine and heartfelt.
Chen Xuan already had his own disciples. Jiang Linglong wasn't just taken in as an infant. Even so, Chen Xuan had put in a lot of effort. How could he not know the kindness of this person when he was still an infant?
"Chen Xuan pays respects to Senior Chan Yue." Chen Xuan walked up to Immortal Chan Yue, knelt on one knee, and bowed with his hands clasped in a very formal manner.
The deepest form of bowing on both knees is for one's parents who gave birth to and raised them, and for one's teachers who imparted knowledge and guidance.
But this time, it's different.
This single-knee bow is a tribute to the Immortal Chanyue for saving the life of his Daoist partner, Zhanxin, and for raising him for over two hundred years.
Having accepted Zhanxin as his Daoist partner, he should respect his master who had shown him such great kindness. Moreover, this was his first time meeting him, and his frivolous, arrogant, and disrespectful behavior would only affect Zhanxin's future prestige in inheriting the throne.
Moreover, it is only natural that the Immortal Chanyue would be able to nurture such an outstanding disciple as Zhanxin from a young age, and that Zhanxin would become the Palace Master in the future, thus protecting and cultivating a continuous stream of talented young people from the Qushan Longxia clan.
Chanyue was also surprised to see Chen Xuan perform such a grand ceremony. With a wave of her hand, she lifted Chen Xuan up, smiled, and nodded with satisfaction, saying, "Xin'er is a girl I picked up in a small world's mortal battlefield when I broke through to the Void Realm and returned to the Xuan Realm... Before I knew it, nearly two hundred years had passed."
"Master." Upon hearing this, Zhanxin's lips were also filled with tears. If it weren't for her master, would she have the status she has today? She would probably have been devoured by wild dogs long ago, her bones turned into dust.
"Today, I entrust Xin'er to you personally, Chen Xuan. I hope you will treat her well." Immortal Chanyue placed the hand that had severed Xin'er in Chen Xuan's hand. "I hope that you two will cultivate the Great Dao together, just like the founding ancestor of my Taiqing Palace, and be of one heart forever, until death do you part."
"Thank you for your kindness, senior." Chen Xuan nodded emphatically.
"Thank you, Master, for granting my request." Zhanxin nodded with tears in his eyes.
Such a scene has probably not occurred in this blessed land for 100,000 years. Chen Xuan and Zhan Xin broke the taboo that this sect has always been very wary of.
Many of the second-generation elite disciples in the hall looked at Zhan Xin with envy. These people had all come out of the secret realm with Zhan Xin, and they all knew what earth-shattering things Chen Xuan had done in the Immortal Realm Ancient Road Secret Realm.
With the blessings of his sect elders, Chen Xuan and Zhan Xin officially became Daoist partners, a status recognized by the Heaven and Earth Taiqing Palace sect.
This news, soon acknowledged by the disciples of Taiqing Palace, immediately caused a huge uproar in Qingtian City.
But this is all for later.
On a secluded mountain peak, which is 1,600 feet high, lies Cold Sword Peak.
As its name suggests, the peak is surrounded by almost no greenery for miles around, only snow and ice.
"Your dwelling is even more extravagant than Senior Sister Piaoxue's." Chen Xuan looked at Zhanxin's cave dwelling and saw that the furnishings inside were extremely simple.
"Before I met you, I was always pure and abstinent, and I devoted myself to the frost sword path. I vowed to make my Dao heart as firm and resilient as ice, so..." When talking about the past, Zhanxin blushed slightly.
"And now?" Chen Xuan pulled Zhan Xin's tall and exquisite body into his arms and asked.
"Hmph, it's all because of you. You destroyed my Dao heart. Take this!"
The two embraced each other, yet they sparred at such a distance, using a single hand to form a sword-finger gesture.
If Senior Sister Piaoxue exudes the fragrance of flowers and herbs, then Zhanxin naturally possesses a faint chill; although it has warmth, it feels icy and slippery to the touch.
Chen Xuan thrust forward with one finger, catching the sword finger that was about to slay his heart, and laughed, "You've lost. Go into the bridal chamber."
Without waiting for Zhanxin's arrival, he bent down, picked him up, and carried him into the inner chamber of the cave.
"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Zhanxin blushed and playfully punched Chen Xuan, scolding, "I haven't... haven't broken through to the Nascent Soul stage yet, you bad person."
Chen Xuan had a wicked smile on his lips, but as soon as he pushed open the stone door to the inner chamber with Zhan Xin in his arms, he subconsciously shivered. A visible white chill rushed out of the stone door, which turned out to be the aura of Xuanbing.
When Chen Xuan saw the large piece of thousand-year-old ice bed by the wall of the cave, he was completely stunned.
"Don't tell me you've been sleeping up here since you were a child?" Chen Xuan asked Zhan Xin in astonishment.
"Otherwise what? This is the most precious treasure of my Taiqing Palace. Only core disciples can possess it. I've been by my master's side since I was a child, so naturally I've slept with it since I was little, right?" Zhanxin nodded naturally.
Chen Xuan's lips twitched, and he leaned close to Zhan Xin's ear and whispered, "Xin'er, you don't have uterine cold, do you? I've heard that women with uterine cold cannot have children."
At first, Zhanxin didn't understand what "palace cold" meant, since this term was quite unfamiliar to him.
Even if Zhanxin doesn't understand, he still knows what the second half means.
Immediately, Zhan Xin felt insulted; her embroidered eyebrows furrowed, and her eyes flashed with sword intent.
"Chen Xuan, I'll fight you to the death!"
ding ding ding-
Ten breaths later, with Chen Xuan holding back, he once again seized the Heart-Slaying Technique.
The two embraced and nestled on the thousand-year-old jade bed, feeling the icy cold air seeping into their skin through their pores. Chen Xuan finally understood a story from his previous life, or rather, a tale: "Embracing a beauty, one remains unmoved."
How could the beauties of this feudal dynasty compare to the one who cuts off one's heart?
Zhan Xin is definitely at the fairy level. In terms of appearance and figure, she is only slightly inferior to Senior Sister Piao Xue, and is on par with Lu Xueqi and Princess Qing Tian Yu'er.
Even now, Zhan Xin, because of Chen Xuan's visit, displayed his heaven-defying strength and defeated the elders from all sides. The Palace Master and his master nodded in acknowledgment that the two were Daoist partners, and it was already assumed that he was Chen Xuan's person.
But so what?
I don't want to at all, not even a little bit.
Unless Chen Xuan mobilized the power of the Crimson Brightness Divine Force to perfectly resist these waves of invading cold air, he had no intention of doing so at all.
"Isn't it a bit too cold?" Chen Xuan hugged Zhan Xin's delicate body tightly, his hands unconsciously sliding on her back, trying to generate some heat through friction.
"Keep pretending. The Crimson Bright Divine Body is forged from the true water of the moon and the power of the true fire of the sun. How could you be afraid of a mere thousand-year-old cold ice?" Zhan Xin rolled his eyes at Chen Xuan and exposed him directly.
Oh ho ho—
Chen Xuan's act was exposed, and he couldn't continue.
Before Zhanxin could realize the seriousness of the situation, he was about to talk about the various benefits of the Xuanbing Bed when he felt a large hand invading from within his robes and even lifting him up.
"You... sob sob."
Having tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time, Chen Xuan and Zhan Xin were almost lost in it. Just as Chen Xuan was unable to control himself and almost crossed the line...
wow——
A wave of clarity and spiritual awareness instantly filled Chen Xuan's soul.
He successfully broke through his second primordial spirit's Qi refining cultivation and became a primordial spirit.
Chen Xuan immediately snapped out of his daze and saw Zhan Xin below with a dazed look in his eyes.
Inside the cave, clothes, long skirts, and black robes were flying everywhere. Zhanxin was only wearing a fur coat to barely cover himself, and was almost completely naked.
Everywhere you look is pure white, it's truly enchanting.
"Uh." As soon as Chen Xuan spoke, Zhan Xin also woke up.
The two were incredibly resolute in their beliefs; they were simply newcomers on their journey, and their emotions were somewhat difficult to control.
Zhanxin clenched her sword fingers, and a new robe wrapped around her delicate body. Then she got off the thousand-year-old ice bed, blushed, and ran out of the inner room, saying shyly, "Wait here, don't run around. I'll go prepare some food for you."
"Yes, thank you for your hard work, Xin'er." Chen Xuan didn't feel embarrassed at all. They were his Daoist partner, so what was there to be embarrassed about? "Fortunately, your primordial spirit broke through in time, otherwise it would have caused a great disaster."
