Chapter 402: I'm Looking for a Man

Fang Chen informed Xia Ji about the Spirit Blood Sect cultivators he had learned about during this period. After hearing this, Xia Ji couldn't help but sigh deeply. "The tentacles of the Spirit Blood Sect are truly widespread. Even in the majestic fifth-tier empires, there are so many Spirit Blood Sect cultivators lurking around."

Xia Ji looked at Fang Chen. "What about Jue Wudi, Fang Shang, and Tong Baizhou? Are they Spirit Blood Sect cultivators too? What about Fang Lingxing?"

Fang Chen lightly shook his head. "She’s probably not one of them."

"So she's just a foolish woman." Xia Ji sneered coldly, and the aura within him slowly rose. Xia Ji's spiritual energy wasn't how it used to be two months ago. It had far surpassed that. It was now profound and mighty.

"You've reached the tenth level of the Qi Refining Realm...." said Fang Chen thoughtfully as he smiled. "Have you gained some insights during your seclusion?"

Xia Ji nodded lightly. "I used to be too lazy, and I always took a lax approach when it came to my cultivation. Now, I need to put in more effort, so I won't be too weak to help you in the future.”

A faint smile appeared in Fang Chen's eyes. He could tell that Xia Ji had some unknown fortuitous encounters. Otherwise, how could his cultivation soar in just a few months?

"By the way, a few old friends have come to Grand Qian for the trade conference. I intend to take you to the Profound Void Temple to meet them. Would you mind saying a word to Master Chanyuan?" said Fang Chen.

"No need, Master won't mind these things." Xia Ji smiled and shook his head. He then curiously asked, "Who are these old friends? Do I know any of them?" V/\IssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).co/m for the b/est novel reading experi/en/ce

"You know one of them," Fang Chen said.

In the Buddha Hall, Fairy Yu respectfully bowed to the Buddha and then lit up an incense she had brought with her. She inserted it into the burner before her.

The female sword cultivator beside her showed a faint disdain. "Junior sister, we cultivators don't need to believe in these temple idols."

"Senior Sister Long, I have believed in Buddhism since I was young, it's already a habit." Fairy Yu smiled cunningly. "If you don't want to stay here, Senior Sister, you can wait for me outside."

"Alright, I'll give you the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn, and then we should leave. Is this small temple worthy of our worship?" said the female sword cultivator as she turned to leave.

Fairy Yu stood still for a moment. After making sure that the female sword cultivator had left, she quietly left the temple and scanned her surroundings.

Wu Ruochou was passing by, and when she caught sight of Fairy Yu and her remarkable demeanor, unable to help herself, she stopped and asked, "Young Lady, what are you looking for?"

Fairy Yu smiled. "I'm looking for a man."

Wu Ruochou's expression sank immediately.

Looking for a man?! In a temple?!

Wu Ruochou thought that Fairy Yu was intentionally making fun of the Profound Void Temple. Just as she was about to respond back, she heard Fairy Yu continue softly, "Do you happen to have a young man here who's handsome like jade, unmatched in the world, and capable of captivating any woman with just a glance?"

Little did Xia Ji expect, Fairy Yu continued to utterly ignore him. She tilted her head back in Fang Chen's embrace and looked up at him.

Her gaze seemed to want to take in every inch of Fang Chen's face, burning it into her mind.

Fang Chen smiled faintly. "Aren't you coming down yet?"

"You seem to have become younger, my lord," pointed out Fairy Yu suspiciously. She didn't seem to have any intention of pulling away from Fang Chen.

"Your lordship has comprehended Buddhist teachings, hence the few years he had gained back," Xia Ji explained.

Fairy Yu was somewhat surprised. "Buddhist teachings can do that?"

Fang Chen frowned. "Don't change the subject. Please come down already; this is a sacred place for Buddhism, and your behavior is not appropriate,"

Fairy Yu immediately stuck out her tongue, but she didn't dare to keep messing around. She stood up and went behind Fang Chen and began to massage his shoulders.

"I saw the mark you left me just now, my lord, and rushed over. However, I cannot stay here for long as my Senior Sister is waiting for me outside," Fairy Yu said.

"Fairy Yu, which sect have you joined?" Xia Ji asked curiously.

Xia Ji already knew that a Spiritual Marrow had appeared back in Grand Xia and that many cultivators had flocked there to pick disciples.

“Lord, Third Prince... Senior Sister and I both come from the Void Immortal Sword Sect, which is an extremely mysterious sect. All cultivators in the sect follow the path of sword cultivation. I am a disciple of the Void Immortal Sword Sect's Extreme Sword Peak. We both share the same master.” Fairy Yu continued, “The Void Immortal Sword Sect is located in the Central Continent Empire. It's quite far from here.”

The Void Immortal Sword Sect?

Surprise flickered in Fang Chen's eyes.

Supreme Immortal Pudu had stolen the sword embryo of Little Sword from the Void Immortal Sword Sect. He never expected that Fairy Yu would become a disciple of the Void Immortal Sword Sect!

“A first-tier empire?! Impressive!” Xia Ji's eyes lit up. “At this rate, I might have to call you my senior in the future!”

“Third Prince, I think your cultivation right now is even deeper than mine. I should be the one calling you senior...” Fairy Yu joked.

Xia Ji chuckled proudly. "It's not like I have an ordinary talent after all. Otherwise, why would my master take me as his disciple?”

Fairy Yu smiled knowingly. She knew that the third prince wouldn't grow conceited from these little things. They had known each other for so many years and were just joking around.

“Third Prince, back when we were still in Grand Xia, you and my lord had a lot of exchanges. We haven’t met in a long time. I’m very happy to see you again,” Fairy Yu said softly.

Xia Ji's face showed a hint of seriousness as he nodded slightly. “I'm also very happy.”
