Chapter 398 - Giving The Cangyang Kingdom To You

Ling Xi landed on Murong Yu’s head and explained to her, “The Fire Poison Curse is a type of seal that gets imprinted on one’s face. While some herbs seem to heal it, it returns soon after. But it’s another thing altogether if I dispel it. Since you are strong, you should be able to heal soon once the scar is gone. You will become the pretty girl you’ve always wanted to be.”

“Thank you, Miss Ling Xi ...” Murong Yu was still too shocked to react to what was happening.

“Close your eyes. Everything will be different once you open them,” Ling Xi said pitifully. No woman wanted to be ugly. It was clear that Murong Yu had been troubled by the curse for a very long time.

She nodded and closed her eyes.

Ling Xi started to work on dispelling the curse while Long Chen just sat in a corner to not disturb them. Time slowly passed, and Ling Xi appeared to be succeeding. After just an hour, the red mark on Murong Yu’s chin slowly faded.

A pale, red line was left on Murong Yu’s face. Ling Xi followed the line and slowly dismantled the curse. Making a mistake at this point would be terrible, so she was very careful. Thankfully, Ling Xi was very good with curses and seals. Two more hours passed, and the red mark was completely gone. Murong Yu just needed to rest for a few days and her skin would become normal again.

Ling Xi was tired when she was done. She floated towards Long Chen and warned him, “I’m going to sleep. Don’t do anything to her just because she’s pretty! And maintain your distance! Do you understand?”

“I know, I know.” Long Chen nodded and sighed. He looked at Murong Yu and saw that she was indeed a super beauty. No wonder Ling Xi had left him with a warning and was wary of her.

“Good.” She then disappeared into the sword.

Murong Yu slowly got up, and Long Chen passed her a mirror without any hesitation. “Take a look, pretty lady Murong.”

Murong Yu soon saw her own face and was surprised to see that the red mark was gone. She bit her finger to make sure that it wasn’t a dream!

She cried out of happiness.

Long Chen sighed in relief when he saw her crying. Women truly put a lot of effort into looking good.

She had endured it for a long time and struggled with insecurity.

She cried for quite some time before she calmed down. “Long Chen, where is Ling Xi?”

“She went back to sleep. If you have nothing else to do, you should do the same. People might get the wrong idea if they see you sleeping on my bed while I’m in the room with you.” n0ve(l)bi(n.)co/m

“Alright. Thank you.” Murong Yu blushed and got up from the bed.

“No need to thank me. You saved my stepfather’s life and even suffered the pain of the Yin Black Worm because of me. This is just a small gesture of goodwill to thank you.”

Murong Yu smiled and looked at the veil on the floor. “Do I still need this?” she mumbled.

“No need. You can confidently show everyone your face.”

“Am I pretty?” She was nervous.

“I say we stop him together. When he leaves the mountain, we will intercept him halfway and kill him! If we can’t kill him, we will need to at least take the sword away from him! We can fight against the Palace Master if we work together, so there’s no way we can’t defeat someone at the Eighth River Stage!” The Third Demon Elder was still angry about what had happened to him last time.

The First Demon Elder was worried too. “I think that’s the only way. Prepare yourselves and watch his movements as closely as possible. We must not let Long Chen leave with the sword, or we will perish ...”

Long Chen finally mastered the Demon Emperor Sword Technique and also received the mask Murong Yu had made. When he put it on, everything about him changed except for his body.

His mask still made him look like a handsome man, but it was someone older, around twenty-five years old. His face was sharp and mature.

Murong Yu was very happy with her work. “All you need are some mature-looking clothes and you can pass on as a twenty-five-year-old wandering cultivator.”

“Not bad. I can’t recognize myself.”

“When are you leaving?”

“Tomorrow,” Long Chen said as he looked at himself in the mirror.

“Okat. I will see you off tomorrow!”

Just then, Zhao Qingyun appeared. Murong Yu knew they needed some time alone, so she left.

“Are you leaving tomorrow?” Zhao Qingyun didn’t want him to leave.

“I still need to take my revenge. Also, there’s something I need to do in the imperial capital. Now is the time for me to do so.”

Zhao Qingyun smiled. “Then I won’t stop you. Just be careful. I will wait for the good news of you decimating the imperial family.”

“Master, you’ve helped me so much. What if I gave you the entire kingdom?” Long Chen chuckled.

“That would be great. I’ve always hated the imperial city. Taking control of the kingdom would complete the dream of my ancestors,” Zhao Qingyun said with a sigh.

“Then I won’t disappoint you.” Long Chen smiled. “Master, do you have any techniques that belong to the Western Sea Kingdom? I need to play that part.”

The Cangyang Kingdom didn’t have someone as strong as Long Chen, so it would be hard to slip in without anyone investigating him.

“Of course. I have some advanced Earth-tier techniques. You can learn them while you travel.” Zhao Qingyun took out some books and gave them to him.

“Then you can await the good news.”

Long Chen put the book away and stared at the direction of the capital. There was nothing but killing intent in his eyes.
