Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 643: Sudden Change in Pattern
Chapter 643: Sudden Change in Pattern
...
When Jiang Yuqing brought Chen Wenyan back to Xuanhe Gate.
Several senior brothers were gathered chatting at the entrance of her cave dwelling.
They knew their junior sister had gone to bathe and were deliberately waiting here, ready to offer their attentiveness at any moment.
Jiang Yuqing possessed exceptional talent. After cultivating the orthodox methods of Moon Shadow Sect, her mind gradually became clearer, and her overall aura grew increasingly pure and transcendent.
It wasn't so bad before, but now she was like a pearl washed clean of dust. In daily life, her every word and action couldn't conceal her pure, unearthly beauty, which made her senior brothers utterly infatuated.
Hearing Jiang Yuqing's light footsteps approaching from afar.
Senior Brother Wang Haotian was the first to put on a smile and step forward to greet her.
However, when he clearly saw the unfamiliar figure beside Jiang Yuqing, his face instantly darkened."Junior Sister, what are you..." Wang Haotian's tone was stiff, "doing bringing some wild man back?"
"What wild man? He fell into the water and lost consciousness, I saved him." Jiang Yuqing shot him an annoyed glare.
How could such a handsome man be a wild man?
But Wang Haotian persisted relentlessly: "His origins are unknown, what if he's a villain? This is an important sect location, how can you casually bring outsiders in? Junior Sister, be reasonable, quickly throw him out!"
"Shut up!" Jiang Yuqing's pretty face turned cold, "I'll decide this myself!"
She couldn't be bothered to deal with Wang Haotian anymore, carefully supporting Chen Wenyan as she entered the cave dwelling, taking out a healing pill and feeding it to him.
The pill dissolved upon entering his mouth. Chen Wenyan's pale complexion quickly gained a rosy hue. In less than half an incense stick's time, his eyelids fluttered slightly as he slowly opened his eyes.
He wasn't seriously injured to begin with—his martial artist physique was robust, he had just suffered some impact.
"Young lady... did you save me?" Chen Wenyan's voice was slightly hoarse.
His gaze fell upon Jiang Yuqing's exquisite face, the relief of surviving a disaster instantly replaced by astonishment.
What a stunning beauty!
Although the wives and concubines at home were also great beauties, they lacked this kind of cold, transcendent aura.
But this young girl before him was different—she was clearly a cultivator.
Jiang Yuqing felt her cheeks grow warm under his intense gaze, lowering her eyelashes as she spoke softly: "Young Master, how... how is your injury?"
"Thank you for your great lifesaving grace!" Chen Wenyan struggled to sit up and bow, "I am Chen Wenyan, may I ask your honorable name?"
"Jiang Yuqing." She quickly supported him, "Please rest peacefully first."
Footsteps sounded outside the door, and her senior brothers' voices rose again outside.
"Junior Sister, since he's awake now, it's time to see the guest out." Wang Haotian's tone was serious, "This is an important sect location, outsiders shouldn't stay long." ṛAΝöΒĘś
"Yes, yes, Junior Sister, listen to Senior Brother, what if the sect leader gets angry?"
Jiang Yuqing frowned, extremely annoyed.
So he had been rescued to a cultivation sect?
This was a good opportunity.
Hearing the voices outside, Chen Wenyan's eyes shifted, then he suddenly grasped Jiang Yuqing's wrist and said sincerely: "Miss Yuqing, though I'm just a mortal, I've always yearned for the immortal path.
Could I beg the sect leader to test my aptitude? If I truly have no connection to the immortal path, I'll immediately descend the mountain without another word!"
Chen Wenyan was very confident.
Because the immortal who granted him his supernatural abilities had said he had extraordinary talent.
What he lacked was just opportunity.
And wasn't the opportunity right before him now?
Hearing this, the senior brothers snorted with laughter.
"Him?" Jiang Yuqing's second senior brother Li Jianming said mockingly, "A mere mortal who fell in water dares to dream of cultivating immortality?"
But Jiang Yuqing's heart stirred.
This young master was handsome with extraordinary bearing, perhaps he really did have cultivation talent?
So she nodded: "Alright, I'll take you to see the sect leader."
"Junior Sister!" Wang Haotian grew anxious, "How can you be so rash..."
"What, Senior Brother, what are you worried about?" Jiang Yuqing pushed the door open and went out, curling her lips with a hint of challenge, "What's the harm in testing one mere mortal?"
...
Before the testing platform, Xuanhe Gate's new sect leader—a middle-aged man in black robes—carefully examined Chen Wenyan.
Originally he had no interest in such mortals.
But today when he saw Chen Wenyan, he always felt Chen Wenyan looked very familiar.
Like... they should have met earlier!
Cultivators believe in fate.
He felt this was the fate between him and this young friend before him.
Maybe Chen Wenyan really did have cultivation talent?
"Young friend, you truly wish to test your immortal path qualifications?"
"This junior would be overjoyed!" Chen Wenyan bowed respectfully.
"Good, then as you wish." The sect leader nodded, "Place your hand on this testing spirit stone."
Chen Wenyan followed instructions and pressed his hand against the spirit stone.
Instantly, the entire hall was filled with blazing, dazzling red light, flame patterns dancing wildly across the spirit stone's surface!
Immediately after, an overwhelmingly sharp sword intent shot up into the sky, a piercing sword cry resonating through the clouds!
"This... this is..." The sect leader's eyes widened round in shock, "Single Fire Spiritual Root! Single Sword Spiritual Root! It's actually the rare double single spiritual roots unseen in a thousand years!"
The several senior brothers were dumbfounded, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit eggs.
"Good! Good! Good!" The sect leader was so excited his beard and hair trembled, repeatedly saying, "This old man wants to take you as his personal disciple! From today onward, you are Xuanhe Gate's chief direct disciple!"
Chen Wenyan's heart surged with wild joy, but he showed a troubled expression on his face: "Sect Leader's great favor, this junior is endlessly grateful. However... this junior still has wives in the mortal world that I truly cannot abandon."
"Haha! A small matter!" The sect leader waved his hand grandly, "Just bring them all here! For cultivation immortals, having three wives and four concubines is completely ordinary, especially with talent like yours!"
Jiang Yuqing's eyes curved happily as she looked at Chen Wenyan with sparkling eyes, lightly laughing in agreement nearby: "Senior Brother Wenyan speaks rightly, the strong naturally have beauties accompanying them, I completely understand."
Wang Haotian was stunned.
Was junior sister already calling him senior brother?
And she completely understands?
Wasn't junior sister insistent on the one-on-one dao companion system?
"Thank you for Sect Leader and Junior Sister's understanding." Chen Yuqing cupped his hands, his face full of gratitude: "Then... this junior will go bring them now!"
Two hours later.
Dust flew outside Xuanhe Gate's mountain entrance.
Chen Wenyan was brimming with pride and vigor, followed by a string of gorgeously dressed women of all shapes and sizes—plump and slender beauties.
One, two, three...
Jiang Yuqing silently counted, her face gradually turning from red to white.
Ten, fifteen, seventeen!
Seventeen beautiful women of various charms and styles in total—some gentle and serene, some bright and alluring, some pure and lovely, some dignified and elegant.
Every type was there!
"Junior Sister Yuqing, these are all my wives and concubines." Chen Wenyan beamed with satisfaction, beginning introductions, "This is First Wife Liu Ruyan, this is Second Wife Zhao Hongxiu, this is Third Wife..."
Jiang Yuqing only felt a buzzing in her head.
The "wives" she had imagined would be, at most, one virtuous principal wife, maybe bringing a maid.
But the result... was seventeen?!
"Senior Brother... are you sure they're all..." Jiang Yuqing's voice trembled slightly.
"Absolutely true!" Chen Wenyan patted his chest, full of heroic spirit, "My greatest pleasure in life, Chen Wenyan, is marrying all the world's beauties! Hahaha!"
He even threw a wink at Jiang Yuqing.
Clearly he now considered Jiang Yuqing one of his conquest targets.
And he had great confidence in his own looks.
"Come, let me introduce, this is your husband's junior sister, Miss Yuqing."
The seventeen women all bowed to Jiang Yuqing, their voices sweeter than the last, their appearances more demure than the next: "We greet Miss Yuqing!"
Jiang Yuqing: "..."
She suddenly felt that perhaps letting this guy drown in the river would have been a better choice.
...
Meanwhile, high in the nine heavens, the rules that invisibly bound heaven and earth quietly loosened.
The invisible shackles that had long suppressed cultivators' breakthroughs were weakening in power.
Deep within the Void Abyss, the nine-tailed fox demon Tu Shan Yue seemed to sense something, suddenly opening a pair of eerie red pupils.
"Oh? The Heavenly Dao... is loosening?" She extended her tongue to lick her lips, revealing a playful smile, "Interesting... it seems the opportunity to become immortal has finally arrived~ I must quickly go tell Brother White Sword."
With these words, her figure flickered and disappeared amidst a sky full of peach blossoms.
...
Ten thousand miles away, Burning Heaven the monk was walking among clouds and water when he suddenly paused his steps, raising his head to look at the sky.
"Amitabha," he pressed his palms together, ripples appearing on his normally placid face, "The rules of heaven and earth are changing, the power of heavenly tribulation is weakening... the path to immortality seems to be right before us."
...
In Moon Shadow Sect's back mountain.
"Jiejie! Jiejiejie!" Old Demon Xiao suddenly opened his eyes, laughing wildly as he spread his arms and roared at the cave ceiling's emptiness, "Heaven helps me! The Heavenly Dao shackles are loosening, this is the perfect opportunity to become immortal!"
He clearly felt the surging power that had surged within him for hundreds of years but was tightly suppressed by invisible restraints—now those restraints were clearly loosening and dissipating.
"Elder brother is still burying himself in hard cultivation, unaware that this tremendous opportunity has arrived!
But... opportunity sometimes also represents danger!"
Old Demon Xiao suddenly stood up, leaving a letter with dripping ink on the stone table, "Forget it, this old man will go first to scout the truth of this immortal path for elder brother!"
As these words fell, Old Demon Xiao sealed his cave dwelling's restrictions, his form transforming into a dazzling stream of light that shot up into the sky, straight toward the world beyond the nine heavens.
He wanted to find a secluded place to properly assault the heavenly gate.
And the heavenly tribulation's power was extremely great. Although being by his elder brother's side was safest, he couldn't endanger the entire Moon Shadow Sect by exposing them to the tribulation's attack for his own safety.
...
On the other side, Chen Huaian had already returned to Containment Area 0.
He didn't yet know that the structure of Cangyun Realm was quietly changing.
At this moment, the Nine Revolutions Bell Orchid that had originally been in the living room was 'standing' before him.
Yes, this adjective was not problematic.
Because standing before him was a little girl who looked about five or six years old, carved from jade and molded from powder.
If not for the familiar half section of grass on the little girl's head, he definitely wouldn't have recognized her immediately.
The Nine Revolutions Bell Orchid she...
She had taken human form!
...
Still working hard at four o'clock, completely burned out.
