Chapter 44

When Xiao Chen activated the Blue Dragon Transformation, blue dragon scales appeared all over his body while a pair of wings grew out of his back. In this form, he threw a punch.

Hundreds of rays of light shone brilliantly as the shock wave created by his fist spread out.

Xiao Chen has crushed the leader of the Evil Wolf Bandits into pieces.

“Hey! How dare you attack our boss!”

“Where did this idiot come from? You’re dead to us!”

A bloody fight broke out after the yelling and cursing.

Xiao Chen displayed his skill to the fullest, resembling a blue dragon cutting through the ocean. Even the woman with the white veil was surprised and bewildered by Xiao Chen’s performance.

She had seen countless young men with great talents and impressive background, but only a few were in the same league as Xiao Chen.

Additionally, Xiao Chen didn’t have an overbearing manner like most of the geniuses from the supreme mystic orthodoxy.

Xiao Chen’s humbled manner somehow drew the veiled woman to him.

Xiao Chen finished the fight with the bandits in no time.

At this moment, he heard the voice of the Master Blue Dragon in his head.

The Master Blue Dragon told Xiao Chen, “Xiao Chen, that woman probably isn’t an ordinary person. There is something about her that can even elude my detection. She is definitely a noble lady from some Immortal Orthodoxy. I believe that she can greatly you when you deal with the divine child of the Jun family in the future.”

Xiao Chen usually didn’t consider himself to be a despicable rat who manipulated others, but he was willing to do anything to defeat Jun Xiaoyao if it would wash away his shame from three years ago.

“Young lady, are you alright?” Xiao Chen stepped towards her with a smile.

His handsome smile made the veiled woman feel a little more reassured.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen was observing the veiled woman as well.

Although the woman covered her face with a white veil, he could see her clear bright eyes and long curled eyelashes. She was obviously a ravishing beauty.

Xiao Chen was even more interested in her. He was determined to win her heart.

As expected, he laid out his whole repertoire of cliche pick-up lines and stale tactics for courting women to gain her favor.

The woman didn’t reveal her identity and only told him that she came to the Kun State to cultivate.

Xiao Chen briefly introduced his own situation to her as well.

‘He turns out to be the crown prince of the Ancient Kingdom of Dragon, huh?’ the veiled woman thought to herself.

She had heard of the Ancient Kingdom of Dragon, one of the Four Cardinal Ancient Kingdoms which was considered a top force by most people.

Even so, it was not on equal footing with the group behind her.

That was because she was from the Everlasting Celestial Dynasty!

Subsequently, Xiao Chen and the veiled woman had been cultivating in the Kun State together and keeping each other company.

Over time, they grew closer.

Although Xiao Chen and the veiled woman were never intimate with each other for the sake of propriety, they already seemed to be good friends.

Even the Master Blue Dragon couldn’t help but want to say something about it.

Xiao Chen was incredibly lucky, destined to become a legend. He was also very fortunate when it came to women.

One night, Xiao Chen was roasting a chicken over the fire for the veiled woman.

He learned that the veiled woman’s name was Wu Mingyue.

“Hey, Mingyue, take this!” Xiao Chen handed Wu Mingyue a sizzling chicken leg.

Wu Mingyue took the chicken leg and removed the white veil covering her face.

Xiao Chen immediately saw a stunning and dreamy face emerge from the veil.

Her eyes were bright and clear like a stretch of water, and her skin was fair and flawless in a way that complemented her delicate features.

Her beauty took Xiao Chen’s breath away.

He had never seen such a gorgeous woman in his life.

“What are you looking at?” Xiao Chen’s gaze brought a faint blush to Wu Mingyue’s cheeks. She tore the chicken leg apart with her slender fingers while her heart pounding wildly.

Honestly, Xiao Chen had no advantage in either background or appearance over the young men she met in the past, but somehow she was fond of Xiao Chen’s straightforward personality.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen’s heart also skipped a beat.

‘After that b*tch Bai Yu’er dumped me, I met someone much better now. Could this be fate?’

The more Xiao Chen thought about it, the more determined he was to make advances on Wu Mingyue.

He deliberately let out a sigh, wearing an unusually sad expression.

Wu Mingyue noticed Xiao Chen’s mood change and asked, “What’s wrong, Xiao Chen?”

“Nothing, I just thought about my heartless and unfaithful fiance from before.” Xiao Chen sighed heavily, seeming as if he was a loving man who was betrayed and heartbroken.

“It turns out that he also has a story,” Wu Mingyue muttered quietly to herself.

Following that, Xiao Chen started to tell Wu Mingyue his story with plenty of embellishments.

He told Wu Mingyue how despite his deep devotion to Bai Yu’er, she still broke her promise and ran away with his enemy.

He kept trying to meet with her to ask for an explanation, but his enemy overpowered him. His enemy went so far as to destroy his meridians and muscles.

Then he was left alone, struggling to cultivate on his own and biding his time to getting revenge.

It was a typical story people would read about in cheap novels.

“Xiao Chen, I didn’t know you went through all of that.”

Wu Mingyue couldn’t help but feel sorry for Xiao Chen after hearing his tale.

In the meantime, she also developed an intense hatred for the bullish enemy he described.

“That enemy of yours is truly detestable. Which group does he belong to? Do you need me to help you?” Wu Mingyue asked.

A flash of joy shot through Xiao Chen’s eyes. Wasn’t this exactly what he was looking for?

The Master Blue Dragon said that Wu Mingyue was probably from some Immortal Orthodoxy, after all.

If that was true, they were capable together of dealing with the Jun family.

Nevertheless, Xiao Chen didn’t ask her directly. Instead, he firmly told her, “There is no need. I have to exact revenge by myself. How can I rely on other people to stand up for me?”

Xiao Chen’s resolution made Wu Mingyue admire him even more.

It also convinced Wu Mingyue to help Xiao Chen despite his refusal.

Wu Mingyue said in a rare authoritative tone, “Say no more, Xiao Chen. I’m not afraid of your enemy no matter what kind of background he has. I will make sure he repents for what he did to you!”

Who was this woman?

She was the Princess Royal of the Everlasting Celestial Dynasty. Her background was prestigious enough to impress most people.

Even if Xiao Chen’s enemy was a genius from an Immortal Orthodoxy, she was confident that he would have no choice but fall to his knees before her.

Few people in the Huangtian Mystic Realm were of a higher status than her.

“Mingyue, I truly appreciate your kindness,” Xiao Chen put on a grateful smile.

Wu Mingyue nodded slightly.

She had made up her mind.

She would get rid of Xiao Chen’s enemy without hesitation if she happened to meet him in the future.

…

In the Heavenly Emperor Palace of the Jun family in the Emperor state…

Jun Xiaoyao was cultivating when he suddenly sensed something. He opened his eyes.

“Why do I feel like someone is out to harm me?” Jun Xiaoyao muttered.

Then, he cracked a smile.

There were plenty of people who tried to hurt him.

It could’ve been people from the Lair of Zulong, Xiao Chen, Ye Xingyun, or even Jun Wanjie.

However, Jun Xiaoyao didn’t care about the malicious scheming. No one was capable enough to threaten him anyway.

At that moment, Jun Zhangjian’s voice rang out outside of the Heavenly Emperor Palace. “I wish to speak with Sir Divine Child!”

“Come in,” Jun Xiaoyao said.

Jun Zhangjian walked in with an excited expression on his face.

“Brother Zhangjian, what happened?” Jun Xiaoyao asked with a smile.

“Sir Divine Child, we’ve received news about the Supreme Treasure of Yuantian!”
