Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal? Chapter 795: Do you have a wife?

Previously on Wait, How Did My Digital Girlfriend Become a Sword Immortal?...
Hua Jin the True One led the Kunlun Immortal Palace disciples to Mount Taihua under the cover of night, determined to secure premium Celestial Jade Marrow despite her rivalry with Chen Niu, whose demonic energy manifested as a crimson dragon dominating the valley. Upon arrival, she was stunned to discover foreign interlopers: Cain, the Blood Clan progenitor, commanding a swarm of blood-winged bats from the western Demon Sealing Pagoda, and the Sanctuary's Pope and Knight Commander radiating holy light from the north. Recognizing the European superhumans' desperate bid for resources denied to them in past cycles, Hua Jin assessed their strengths as potential disruptors in the impending clash. Cain proposed an alliance to her against the Sanctuary and their mutual foe Chen Niu, but his senses screamed danger from the unassuming Sword Cultivator Chen Huaian trailing her. As Cain recoiled, Chen Huaian approached with a gleaming sword, promising ten blades if the vampire answered his question truthfully.

Who would ever hand out swords to a complete stranger right off the bat?

Actually, it's worse—who just passes out priceless treasures like that!

Cain's gaze fixed on the blade Chen Huaian had revealed, his eyes shining with interest.

Yet he was well aware that gifts without reason often hide some hidden agenda.

Thus, his immediate response was caution, wondering what schemes this intimidating figure might be harboring.

"Answering one question lands me this sword?"

He stepped back slightly, gesturing toward the weapon in Chen Huaian's grip.

"That's right. Stop hesitating. If you drag your feet, This Venerable One will hand it off to another."

"Fine, fire away."

"Me and your mother..."

"I don't have a mother," Cain replied gravely. "Though if you'd like me to, I could form one using blood energy. As for a father... well, it wasn't truly a father. More like a blood bat, the original ancestor of the entire Blood Clan. But it's been dead for ages..."

Chen Huaian's lip quirked slightly. "Do you have a wife?"

"I've got a couple of outlets for my urges," Cain replied, licking his lips. "Some young starlets from Europe—delicious ones. If you're interested, I could spare you one."

Ignoring Cain's remark entirely, Chen Huaian stated evenly, "If This Venerable One and your wife both fell into the water, neither able to swim, who would you rescue first?"

Cain gawked at Chen Huaian in disbelief.

He couldn't wrap his head around why this man would pose such a foolish query.

More baffling still, how did this bizarre question tie into claiming that sword?

It didn't take long for the truth to dawn on him.

This Hua region cultivator was simply toying with him!

Regardless of his response, this guy would likely claim it was incorrect and withhold the sword.

"I'd save you both," Cain chose. With choices apparently meaningless, he refused to pick just one.

"I'm the top monster boss in Europe. A single wing flap lets me scoop you two out effortlessly. No need for any tough decisions."

"Impressive!" Chen Huaian's eyes sparkled, his expression brimming with praise and delight. "You're a truly compassionate vampire."

Then he flung the sword straight into Cain's grasp. "Take these ten swords. This Venerable One approves of your reply."

Cain scrambled to hold the bundle of ten swords, rooted to the spot in shock.

Stunned, puzzled, and completely unable to believe it.

Still, the treasures were now firmly his.

He drew one sword at random to examine closely, musing that during his clashes with the Sanctuary, owning a blade like this would have spared him constant retreats.

These days, he could only match those two Sanctuary beasts through his near-indestructible nature. The struggles he'd endured were known only to him.

"You're really... just handing me this sword?" He sought reassurance from Chen Huaian once more.

But Chen Huaian had already disappeared from sight. Scanning around, Cain spotted the Eastern cultivator approaching those two Sanctuary fiends.

Cain: "..."

Surely he wouldn't toss a bunch of rare swords to those Sanctuary pair without charge too?

Where would that leave him?

He'd figured himself for the favored one!

Chen Huaian paid no mind to Cain's thoughts. Grinning, he faced the Sanctuary's Pope and Knight Commander. "This Venerable One senses a genuine bond with you two—familiar faces, almost like old friends. Care to answer a question for me? If it pleases This Venerable One, these swords are yours~ Completely free~"

While talking, he showcased the hefty stack of swords cradled in his arms to the Pope and Knight Commander.

Chen Huaian expected his friendly offer to win them over.

Yet the Sanctuary's Pope stayed quiet.

The Knight Commander shot him a frosty look.

"Go back to your spot, Eastern cultivator. We're not close enough for this!" The Knight Commander adjusted his massive sword, letting out a deep, resonant clang. "We don't want your blades. Besides, those flimsy swords look ridiculous next to my greatsword! I just hope they don't get smashed when we fight over the treasure soon!"

Chen Huaian's mouth twitched once again.

If he wasn't wrong, that Knight Commander's greatsword was crafted from ordinary stuff, wasn't it? Its impressive vibe came from the holy light poured into it. Likely tempered by holy light over years, it barely mimicked a magical artifact.

But mimicking one wasn't the same as being a real magical artifact.

With such a weak base, its potential was capped. Even brushing against a basic magical flying sword from the Cangyun Realm would break it, never mind the top-tier ones he held.

"Alright, suit yourselves if you pass."

Chen Huaian spun around and departed.

He did plan to distribute swords, but not force them on unwilling recipients. Plus, with the Celestial Jade Marrow about to burst forth, he had no patience for debating these Sanctuary fools.

His strategy was almost set.

All that remained was observing the unfolding events.

"Senior Chen, why... why hand out these valuable swords to outsiders like them?" Hua Jin the True One could no longer stay silent.

When Chen Huaian shared swords with the Ascender sect disciples, she could rationalize it—this was the elder empowering the Ascenders to battle Chen Niu and his demonic forces, preserving their legacy.

But to Cain? That baffled her.

As the proverb warns, outsiders harbor different intentions.

Cain was power-hungry. Any talk of alliance was mere pretense. When grabbing spoils, he'd flip sides first.

Wasn't arming Cain with precious swords the same as aiding the foe?!

"Hua Jin, the more allies, the wider the roads," Chen Huaian brushed it off with a wave. "This Venerable One has plenty more of these swords. And since I forged them myself, I can command them too. So don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Hua Jin the True One got it.

"I see. This junior worried needlessly."

So Senior Chen had it all plotted out!

In that instant, Hua Jin the True One's respect for Chen Huaian swelled like an unstoppable torrent.

These swords appeared as generous handouts, yet they stayed firmly under Senior Chen's influence. Could it be that in a pivotal instant, they'd rebel against their wielders, striking down the greedy ones fatally?

They were like ticking explosives!

Explosives no one could easily turn down.

That the Sanctuary's Pope and Knight Commander rejected them actually sparked a touch of esteem.

Chen Huaian had no clue what ran through Hua Jin the True One's mind.

But without Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng here, he handled everything solo.

This minimized the chance of Chen Niu's real form going after Zhang Yibai and Gu Changsheng.

Though he seemed composed on the surface, he had quietly triggered the Sect Summoning Token.

Once in the Unity Realm,

the Sect Summoning Token didn't just call forth two Void Shattering cultivators—it let him pick exactly where they'd arrive.

Triggering the Sect Summoning Token like this kept it far more hidden.
