Outside the temple, the sun blazed overhead while a cool breeze brushed the lush garden, bringing peace and tranquility.
Ling Hai and Ling Bao’er stood silent as they watched Ling Qingshan and Chen Changan’s alpha male contest.
He worked so hard to mold his first disciple for his use and was not about to let her go.
“Garbage is not fit to become my daughter’s Master!” Ling Qingshan huffed.
[What was Ling Bao’er thinking? Don’t just take anyone you find as your Master, especially a mere Mortal. As a father, but mostly as the Nine Swords Sect Leader, how disgraceful!]
“Master, dad is blunt, so please don’t take his insults seriously.” Ling Bao’er panicked and pleaded Ling Qingshan’s case so that her Master wouldn’t get angry and slap him out of existence.
Chen Changan smiled, not minding Ling Qingshan’s words. “I’m not so petty. He is still your father.”
Ling Qingshan was fuming mad by now. He was worried sick for Ling Bao’er, even rushing into Myriad Mountains with a Grand Elder and this was how she repaid him?
[My own daughter takes the stranger’s side! Grown children should spread their wings but she’s still just a child. She just wants to go with this bastard who seduced her!]
Ling Bao’er softly said, “Dad, Master isn’t garbage. He killed a Nascent Soul with a slap. Don’t antagonize him any further, or I can’t save you.”
Ling Qingshan cackled at the absurdity of his daughter’s words. “Bao’er, he must’ve fooled you good. Do you know how strong a Nascent Soul is? Why not just say he blew a Nascent Soul to death.”
Chen Changan scratched his nose, “That could work.”
In Absolute Domain anything was possible, even blowing a Nascent Soul to the hereafter. Chen Changan was excited to try it. He was sure to give it a shot the next time a Nascent Soul came knocking.
Ling Bao’er sighed. [Dad, I’m being honest here. Why can’t you believe me?]
“I’ll put you in your place for deceiving my daughter!” Ling Qingshan raged and wanted to set the punk straight for deluding his daughter.
A Demonic aura landed in the garden, revealing Touba Ye. On his trip through Myriad Mountains, he didn’t withdraw his aura.
His Demon King aura surged like a tide, making Ling Hai and Ling Qingshan understand that a great enemy was upon them.
[A Nascent Soul Demon King! What’s he doing here? Wait, the Immortal Treasure! That must be what drew him here!]
Ling Hai’s expression was grave as a 4th layer Nascent Soul cultivator, he found the Demon King to match his cultivation. Nevertheless, he still felt great danger coming from the Demon King. Although Ling Hai was confident in his strength, even with their equal cultivation, a Demon King was still stronger.
[Myriad Mountains are as the rumors paint them to be, filled with hidden monsters and dangers.]
He was even thinking of just grabbing Ling Bao’er and fleeing.
“Friend, we came to look for someone and are not here for the Immortal Treasure.” Ling Hai cupped his hands.
There was no arguing with Demons and Monsters, especially a Demon King. Best state their intentions from the start so he wouldn’t go blind with rage and kill them.
Ling Qingshan did the same, “Senior, I’m Nine Swords Sect Leader, Ling Qingshan, and this is my Grand Elder, Ling Hai.”
His mind was occupied with thoughts of keeping his daughter safe. The Mortal boy could die for all he cared.
[My daughter matters most. Now that we presented ourselves, the Demon King shouldn’t come after us, I hope.]
The Demon King’s voice rumbled, “Young Master, these two are definitely here for the Sacred Immortal Sword. Want me to handle them?”
Chen Changan smiled, “Won’t the Nascent Soul cause you trouble?”
“Young Master, we are in the same realm, but my talent is better. It’s only a matter of time before I beat him.” Touba Ye spoke with confidence.
Ling Bao’er tensed. “Brother Ox, they’re my father and grandfather. Don’t hurt them.”
Touba Ye blinked. Looking closer at Ling Qingshan, he finally saw the resemblance. He scratched his horn, bashful, “Young Miss, here I was thinking they came for the sword. Sorry, my mistake.”
Ling Bao’er rolled her eyes.
“Young Master, what now?” Touba Ye deferred to Chen Changan.
Chen Changan waved, “It has nothing to do with you. Now, have you done what I asked?”
Touba Ye slammed his chest. “Young Master, rest assured it is done.”
Ling Qingshan and Ling Hai looked dumbstruck. [What did the Demon King say? He called Ling Bao’er Young Miss and that bastard Young Master? And to speak in such a humble tone? Am I hearing things?]
This was a Demon King they were talking about, not some puny Demon. Ling Hai and Ling Qingshan were shocked to the core, words leaving them.
They were even cautious not to offend, when in fact, the Demon King turned out to be respectful to Chen Changan and Ling Bao’er.
Chen Changan smiled at the two, “Now, where were we?”
Ling Bao’er giggled, “Master, dad wanted to set you straight.”
Ling Qingshan glared at her.
Ling Bao’er stuck out her tongue. [Humph, that’s what you get for looking down on my Master. Isn’t he amazing?]
The two knew the kid was anything but normal. The Demon King’s respect proved Chen Changan was at least above him.
Ling Qingshan was put on the spot. Setting Chen Changan straight would soon turn into the Demon King setting him straight.
[How can this stubborn girl say that!]
It would be interesting to watch their reaction if they knew Chen Changan had three Demon Kings under him, not just one.
Ling Hai spoke up with much more respect due to Touba Ye’s appearance. “Friend, I don’t know why Bao’er chose you, but we have to take her. I ask that you let us.”
Chen Changan was silent.
Ling Bao’er said, “Grandpa, I don’t want to leave. Master has been good to me. I’m having the time of my life here and Master also raised my talent. Soon I’ll catch up to you, dad.”
She thought the two wouldn’t believe her so she released her aura.
Ling Qingshan and Ling Hai went bug-eyed in disbelief.
“4th layer of Golden Core!”
“This can’t be!”
Ling Bao’er shone like a 24-carat diamond.
