Plundering the Heavens

Chapter 372: Gifted Sword Embryo



Chapter 372: Gifted Sword Embryo

All these people knew why everyone had come to the Red Convention, so why was somebody suddenly requesting marriage?

This was the Dragon Kings daughterAo Yinzhu of the Thousand Stream Seas Colored Glass Palaceand the kind of person she was wasnt a secret. Her beauty was naturally at the top and her appearance was peerless even among those in the cultivation realm. It was well-known how much value a cultivator would place on their cultivation, yet so many were willing to sacrifice their Yang essencesomething they saw as valuable as their own livesall for the sake of one pleasurable night with her.

However, even though so many men circled around her like flies, how many would be willing to marry her? Cultivators were seen as lofty individuals above everything else; if they were to seek out a Dao companion, who would willingly accept such a heartbreaker? The path of cultivation was long, and such regret could last hundreds if not thousands of years!

Who would have imagined this Red Convention would see something new? Someone publicly announced he wanted to invite the Dragon Kings daughter back to be wed, and even more importantly, all the cultivators had been able to very clearly hear the word Videha. Could this hemp-clothed young man who wanted to marry the Dragon Kings daughter actually be from Videha? Such shocking news left all of the cultivators extremely dumbfounded, or else there would have been mocking words long ago.

The Dragon Kings daughter turned an expressionless face towards him and calmly replied, What letter? Ive never read it!

Yuan Bizhans expression became stern with hints of anger, but he quickly suppressed it and showed a smile. Please dont be so headstrong, Miss Yinzhu. This marriage, I believe you would have heard about it before. It was my father who personally asked the old Dragon King for you to be wed to me and the two of them confirmed our marriage, it was just that no matter how much he asked you to come back to the Azure Seas, you refused. Hence, I had to personally come to bring you back.

The Dragon Kings daughter sneered when she heard this. Did he really agree? There are plenty of princesses within the Dragon Palace. You only needed to pick any one of them and take them with you to Videha for marriage, so why bother coming thousands of miles in search of me? I was banished from the Azure Seas over forty years ago and that old thing didnt even ask anything about me, yet nowwith a single sentencehe wants me to marry someone just like that?

Uhh. This left Yuan Biazhan speechless, and annoyed thoughts began to rise, If my clan didnt want to claim a relationship with the Dragon Palace, I would never want to marry a used shoe like you! If I was able to marry any other dragon princess, it would have been for the better, but the Dragon Palace has always forbidden their princesses from marrying outside of their own race; only someone with a trash reputation like you can be married into other races. Only when my position within the sect was endangered did I clench my teeth and accept marrying you as a last resort to increase my position within the clan. Do you really think Id like a woman like you otherwise?

Despite his thoughts, however, his smile did not falter and he remained courteous. That is not exactly correct, Esteemed Eldest Princess. Although this marriage was agreed upon between my father and the old Dragon King, it originally stemmed from my admiration towards the eldest princesss beauty and unyielding temperament. I begged father to propose marriage with the old Dragon King, but I knew that with your extraordinary beauty, you naturally wouldnt be willing to wed me with a single wedding paper. In my utmost sincerity, I personally came to the Thousand Streams Sea in the hope of being able to move Esteemed Eldest Princess.

The Dragon Kings daughter showed a smile. Hehe, your words are very pleasing to the ear! She gave a meaningful glance towards Yuan Bizhan before sweeping her gaze across the cultivators within the hall with another smile. You speak so much of sincerity and believe that is enough to move me? Heh, anyone willing to come here for my Red Convention is filled with great devotion, and Im afraid there wouldnt be enough of me if I were to marry everyone who showed some sincerity. So Mister Yuan, please sit down and wait until I pick a test topic. If Mister Yuan has the ability to stand over all, even though I wont come with you to Videha, we can still be husband and wife for three days!

Anger flashed across Yuan Bizhans face. His choice to reveal everything before shed picked the test topic was intentional, as though to say I am the future husband your father chose for you and Im willing to take you in as my wife despite your dirty past, so these absurd actions of yours should stop here right now. In response, the Dragon Kings daughter even dared to mention choosing a temporary husband right to his face.

In truth, Yuan Bizhan had already sent multiple letters to the Colored Glass Palace in the hopes of meeting with the Dragon Kings daughter alone, but shed been hiding from him and simply gave him an invitation to the Red Convention instead. He couldnt simply force himself inside this palace and so had no other option but to come during the Red Convention to meet with her, but he naturally didnt want the Red Convention to continue.

Hed been unwilling in the first place, and hed been further rejected several times after arriving at the Thousand Streams Sea. His anger had been accumulating and had reached the point where his elegance and grace were gradually draining away. You must be making a joke with me, Miss Yinzhu, he sneered, How can all these people filled with vulgar and illicit thoughts be considered sincere? IBizhanfeel I am different from all of them and my sincerity can be witnessed by all the heavens. I personally came to this Red Convention not for the so-called three nights of pleasure; it is my most heartfelt wish to bring Miss Yinzhu back to Videha to become myYuan Bizhanscompanion in Dao.

Such words had effectively offended each and every one of the cultivators here, but he was from Videha and he also had one of the most well-known young island masters in the areathe young island master of the Gold Sea Turtle Islandbeside him; although everyone was dissatisfied, no one actually dared to say anything. Fang Xing, however, couldnt help but to yell out, Everyones here to sleep with some women, what kind of mighty fake sh*t are you pretending to be?

Everyones gazes moved as one towards where the voice had come from. Fang Xing immediately pointed at Zhou Luwei next to him and said, He was the one who said it!

Zhou Luwei flinched at this and hastily waved his hands. It wasnt me, it wasnt me!

Ao Yinzhu didnt pay any attention to the noise below. She listened to Yuan Bizhans words with indifference, but her gaze swept towards his waist. She casually caressed a white jade Buddha statue that had been placed on the table in front of her and began to show a faint smile. You say the others do not have enough sincerity, yet they at least brought me valuable gifts. I heard your Yuan clan of Videha is one of Videhas oldest clans and has extreme wealth, so much so that it could be enough for a country, yet a young master of theirs sought me out with empty hands?

Yuan Bizhan was taken aback. His father had given him something to gift to her as part of the marriage proposal, but he was rather shameless and had hoped to keep it for himself. Now that that was no longer an option, he pulled a long rectangular-shaped box from the storage sack at his waist and placed it horizontally in front of her with a smile. Miss Yinzhu is mocking me now. This is my very first time meeting you, so how would I not be prepared?

After a slight pause, Yuan Bizhan opened a small portion of the box and allowed a cold and stern aura to seep out from within. It held the feeling of murderous intent tempered through battlefields for a long time, and those who sensed it felt a chill from the bottom of their hearts. He only opened the small portion before he quickly shut it and laughed, This Sword Embryo is the gift I have brought for Miss Yinzhu. To speak truthfully, this Sword Embryo came from the Mysterious Domain. When the Mysterious Domain opened a short while ago, although we Videha cultivators were able to take seventy percent of the area, it was to the Jambu cultivators good fortune that such a divine opportunity as Sword Embryos appeared in their area and we Videha cultivators had agreed not to cross the borders. This Sword Embryo of mine was actually obtained by one of my uncles, who managed to receive it from the hands of his old friend through a string of perfectly-timed coincidences. Hed originally wanted to keep it for me, but since my heart lies with Miss Yinzhu, I was not willing to fuse with it. I used a secret spell to seal it so it could be presented to you here.

All the cultivators below were shocked to hear such a thing.

There had been countless numbers of opportunities within the Mysterious Domain, and the Sword Embryos had been one of the most well-known. However, it was said the Sword Embryos had all been completely plundered by the little demon, with nearly one hundred missing after his disappearance. All of the cultivators could only feel a heartache from such a great loss, but even if they wanted to reclaim the Sword Embryos, they didnt know where to go to do so. Despite this, this Yuan Bizhan was unexpectedly able to bring out one of these precious Sword Embryos as a gift for Ao Yinzhu; in comparison to the value of a Sword Embryo, all the other gifts were like ordinary, worthless dust.

While everyone was looking on with shocked gazes, it was only Fang Xing who casually picked his nose and flicked something into Zhou Luweis wine glass. He wasnt interested in the slightest; this Sword Embryos quality was nothing more than the ones hed used as fireworks, so what was so great about it?

Even Ao Yinzhu was a little surprised when she heard the words Sword Embryo. Oh? So thats the so-called Sword Embryo that contains ancient Flying Sword techniques? Her gaze flickered and she took the box over before opening it to study what was inside.

Be careful, Miss Yinzhu, Yuan Bizhan quickly reminded, The Sword Embryos aura cannot be casually leaked out, or else the sword spirit will dissipate.

Ao Yinzhu didnt reply and only lowered her face to observe the sword for a long while. A Sword Embryo from the Mysterious Domain is indeed extraordinary, she sighed out. It was a pity that when the Mysterious Domain opened, not only was my bone age not appropriate, Id also just formed the Golden Core and wasnt able to enter. However, Id heard Sword Embryos have different qualities, and those with the highest quality were all taken by that little demon. This particular Sword Embryo is just an ordinary one, right?

Yuan Bizhan started to feel some reluctance when he heard her words and felt Ao Yinzhu was simply trying to purposefully find flaws in his precious gift. This Sword Embryo was so precious he hadnt even wanted to give it to Ao Yinzhu and wished to fuse with it himself. It was the reason he hadnt taken it out straight away when he arrived at the Colored Glass Palaceit was only after Ao Yinzhu called him out that he unwillingly revealed it.

It was such a precious item, yet Ao Yinzhu was being so picky? He was immediately filled with frustration, but he still showed a smile and replied, There are indeed a few Sword Embryos with unmatched quality, but this Sword Embryo I have is also not an ordinary one. I cannot say what kind of countless treasures you have in your Colored Glass Palace, Miss Yinzhu, but IBizhandare say there could be no treasure more valuable than this Sword Embryo.

A peculiar look flashed across Ao Yinzhus face at Yuan Bizhans statement, and she closed the box while flashing a half-smile his way. Mister Yuan, it seems you are full of confidence. Do you already know what kind of treasures I have within my Colored Glass Palace?

Yuan Bizhan was momentarily surprised, but he quickly answered, It is my first time here at Miss Yinzhus Colored Glass Palace; how would I know the treasures collected here?

Ao Yinzhu began to sneer. If you dont know what treasures I have collected within my Colored Glass Palace, how do you know none of the treasures in my collection are more valuable than your Sword Embryo?
