The Emperor of the Three Realms

chapter 189

Jiang Chen could only honestly say that his place had long since been locked by the fourth prince.    

“That little monkey, Ye Rong?” A hint of a sly smile appeared on Dan Fei's glowing face. “What if I convince Ye Rong to give your place to me?”    

“Um... forming parties and groups allowed in the Autumn Hunt of the Maze Realm?” Jiang Chen was a bit curious.    

Dan Fei rubbed her head. He discovered that Jiang Chen was naive to the point of not knowing anything.    

“Dah. Of course parties and groups can be formed for the Autumn Hunt. Then what's the point of these places?”    

Jiang Chen still did not understand, “Saudari Dan Fei, with your status, it should not be difficult to find some practitioners with higher levels of training. Why should I?”    

Dan Fei giggled, “It should remain secret for now.”    

“Even not entitled to know? I'm not leaving!" Jiang Chen shook his head, he was extremely dissatisfied.    

“If you don't go, do you believe it.” Dan Fei stretched out her slender hand and made a downward cutting motion. “Do you believe that I will do to you what has been done to the Dragon-Phoenix? Snip snip... Yes yes!”    

Jiang Chen had not expected that the normally pure and fresh Dan Fei suddenly burst out with such cruel words.    

“You don't need to be that cruel, do you?! Why do I feel you are a human trafficker dealing with men and boys?”    

Dan Fei smiled sweetly. “Good, fear! And don't flatter yourself, I won't be able to make you angry.”    

Jiang Chen resigned, “I hope Prince Ye Rong can protect his integrity and avoid being the victim of the snare of a beautiful woman, which consequently makes me out.”    

“Don't bother thinking about it! That little monkey Ye Rong won't be able to escape from my palm.” Dan Fei stood up after saying these words and walked leisurely outside, her footsteps sounding soft.    

“Jiang Chen, it's done. Remember, I'm not kidding. I will give you the Phoenix-Dragon treatment if you support me!”    

Jiang Chen's brows furrowed as he looked at the woman with this greatly changed personality. He found that this woman was a bit difficult to deal with.    

He is sometimes quiet and sometimes playful, sometimes fierce and sometimes cunning. He can be kind-hearted, and sometimes he shows a little devil-like disposition.    

“Honored Teacher Ye, how do you cultivate such a unique woman? Did you accidentally send him here for me?” Jiang Chen slapped his forehead. “Gouyu, massage my shoulder!”    

He turned his head and discovered that Gouyu had left in a hurry.    

“No way, both sides hate me now?” Jiang Chen realized the status of the situation and made him very disappointed.    

What Jiang Chen did not anticipate was that Dan Fei actually went to look for the fourth prince Ye Rong. Ye Rong did not put up much resistance and gave Jiang Chen to Dan Fei.    

Ye Rong smiled at his house, “Jiang Chen, you really can't blame me for this matter. I really don't want to. However, you know that I was unable to withstand the onslaught when Dan Fei lost her temper.    

Tian Shao smiled, “Male brother Jiang Chen, for your benefit, this matter has not been circulated in the gossip factory. You will be condemned by the public if word gets out. Miss Dan Fei has participated in the Autumn Hunt twice in the past. Many noble youths wanted to form a team with him in the past, but do you know what happened?”    

"What?!"    

“Nona Dan Fei doesn't approve of anyone and she always does it alone, because she's beautiful and alone. Do you see how disappointed the young men who wanted to show their strength were in front of Miss Dan Fei? You are a good character. You have been handpicked by Miss Dan Fei, but you put on a sad expression. Didn't you say that you don't appreciate the happy life you enjoy?”    

Ye Rong also smiled, “Jiang Chen, I actually admire you. Although we princes have many opportunities to meet Miss Dan Fei every month when we learn from esteemed teachers, of all the opportunities we had to spend time alone with Dan Fei as we grew up, their combined total was still not enough. matched the amount of time for the Fall Hunt.”    

Although it was the truth, Jiang Chen's mood did not improve with their words. The youths of the capital wanted to form a team with Dan Fei because they wanted to show off their abilities in front of Dan Fei and get her help. This was because Dan Fei was their goddess, and they also wanted to get the assistance of the esteemed teacher through Dan Fei for the others.    

However, Jiang Chen had not thought of any twists and turns like this. He had no desires or requests towards the old tutor, and he had absolutely no thoughts of deliberately licking him.    

Although Dan Fei was beautiful, Jiang Chen did not lose his mind and soul or be fascinated by her appearance.    

If Jiang Chen was someone who was lustful towards***, to be honest, before he met Dan Fei, whether it was Princess Gouyu or Eastern Zhiruo, none of them would have any reason to reject him if he nodded his head. .    

But, Jiang Chen was not someone who immersed himself in the pursuit of the more fair. Although Dan Fei was quite outstanding, a woman who was as accomplished and perfect as she was was often full of thorns.    

Jiang Chen participated in the Autumn Hunt to train and refine himself. She actually did not want to be tied to the beauty side.    

Especially when the mind of the beauty is so difficult to understand.    

“Jiang Chen, I still have two places. Do you need it?”    

Jiang Chen argued for a moment and nodded. “I'll take one.”    

He wanted two, one for Xue Tong and another for Gouyu. But when he considered that Gouyu would soon be doing closed-door cultivation to invade the spirit realm, he would not be able to arrive in time.    

Not to mention, Gouyu and Dan Fei did not seem to get along. If he was assigned to Dan Fei's team and brought Gouyu along as well, it would be rather troublesome if the two met in the Labyrinth Realm.    

After arguing back and forth, Jiang Chen still decided to give Xue Tong a place.    

Xue Ting's potential in martial dao was extremely high. He was a jade that had yet to be polished and had yet to be carved.    

When he returned from the fourth prince's palace to his home, Jiang Chen called Xue Tong. After Xue Tong had broken through to the ranks of true qi masters, he strengthened his training all along.    

He would take out the Rare Jade Fruit when his level was stable and continue to advance relentlessly to attack the eleven meridians of true qi.    

Xue Tong was filled with spirit all along. He felt the world was filled with beautiful colors and his world became so interesting because of his older cousin, Jiang Chen.    

“I am indebted for being understood and treated well by my older cousin. I had to train hard and be his most reliable subordinate as well as help him overcome his burdens and worries. I, Xue Tong, have had no parents since I was a child. I live under the roof of someone else's house, and if it wasn't for Jiang Chen's eldest cousin who chose me to be his personal bodyguard, he said, most likely I am still in the Yinglan Tribe in the Jiang Han territory at the moment, still being bullied and humiliated by others.The son of his uncle, Lan Yizhou. I have now soared into space with one extraordinary feat and become a true qi master, whereas Lan Yizhou still had to waste his life in the Yinglan Tribe. The essence of it all, Jiang Chen's eldest cousin has given me a second life.”    

Xue Tong's thoughts went down this path as his footsteps led him to Jiang Chen's door.    

"Young Master." Xue Tong had great respect for Jiang Chen.    

“Xue Tong, you are my younger brother. If no one else is present, call me young Chen. Big brother also works.”    

"Sister." Xue Tong was a little nervous. His parents died when he was young. Trying to survive in the cracks under the oppression of Lan Yizhou's dandy was a bit much has caused her to become a little timid and self-conscious. Even Lan Yizhou did not allow Xue Tong to call him big brother, let alone Jiang Chen.    

Therefore, due to his low sense of self, Xue Tong never dared to call Jiang Chen “male brother”.    

“Do not stand on ceremony. We are brothers first, then masters and followers. Oh right, this time there was a trial called the 'Autumn Hunt of the Maze Realm'. I've got a place for you, are you interested?”    

"Try on?" Xue Tong's eyes twinkled. He knew that trials existed in the world of martial dao. Such an environment once existed in the Eastern Kingdom during the Hidden Dragon Trials.    

However, only the son of the duke received such a unique treatment. Ordinary practitioners do not have the right to participate in such conferences.    

“Xue Tong, your martial potential is quite good and you have grown quickly in all areas. But now, you don't have the ordeal of life and death experience so, you don't have the slightest bit of killing intent and aura.” Jiang Chen pointed out the matter of Xue Tong. “Autumn Hunt is a great opportunity to train, but it also has certain risks. What do you think?”    

“I'm willing to try it.” Xue Tong was quite firm.    

“Alright, then it's settled.” Jiang Chen nodded and gave his reminder. “There's still half a month left. With the help of Rare Jade Fruit, you will be able to try mastering eleven meridians of true qi. The stronger you face trials like this, the more profit you get. At what level have you trained the Eye of God and the Ear of Zephyr that I have given you?”    

“The two arts have been trained up to the third level. If I train hard in this half a month, I should be able to reach the fourth level.”    

Jiang Chen nodded his head in satisfaction. Xue Tong's potential was truly extraordinary. With the experience from Jiang Chen's past life establishing him, even as the reincarnated son of the Celestial Emperor, his training speed was only about the same as Xue Tong's.    

To be honest, if Jiang Chen's body wasn't re-forged, he only had ordinary potential. Its potential was better than average only after it was re-forged.    

However Xue Tong, had not made any improvements and he had trained himself since young, in a condition that lacked resources and cultivation.    

From this it looked just how bad Xue Tong's potential was.    

In terms of potential, Xue Tong was definitely the highest among the eight personal bodyguards. Its potential was even higher than Eastern Gouyu.    

If one were to talk about gold buried in the sand, then Xue Tong was truly gold buried in the sand.    

…    

As for the Tang Long family, they were silent while bringing home her younger brother. They just think that today's events are far too far-fetched.    

They walked home because Tang Long felt the problem was getting weird.    

“My brother, it looks like my calf is reacting. Help me take a walk, I really feel something!” Tang Zhong, suddenly shouted loudly as he sat in a wheelchair.    

"What!?" Tang Long was in a fainting state when he jumped up after Tang Zhong's words. His facial expression was agitated. “Tang Zhong, are you earnest?”    

"Yes yes! I feel like my legs can stand up and walk for a while. Brother, help me take a few steps.”    

Tang Long hurriedly walked forward to pick up Tang Zhong.    

Tang Zhong's legs stretched out as he walked upwards. However, her legs were a bit weak from sitting in a wheelchair for too long and she did not have much ability to find her balance.    

It is uncoordinated when moving.    

“My brother, did you see this!? I can walk, I can walk!” Tears streamed down Tang Zhong's face as he shouted and shouted.    

Tears also flowed from Tang Long's eyes, “Yes, yes! You can really walk. This means they have really healed you.”    

Tang Long's fiancee, that honest young lady, also continued to wipe the tears from her eyes.    

After doing a few rounds, Tang Zhong started to find his footing, but he was a little tired.    

“Tang Zhong, your legs have just started to feel back, don't be in a hurry. Your foot function will slowly recover after you take the medicine, and you will be able to walk like a normal person.” Tang Long comforted his brother.    

“My brother, I'm so happy. How do you get to know such wonderful friends? Where did they come from? Why don't all the doctors know what to do, but he cured me with some gold needle pricks?” Tang Zhong was very curious and very excited. Their families were born from the lower layers and they had only ever come into contact with the lower layers of society. When did they ever meet such a powerful friend?
