Chapter 678 Enlightenment
The green bead slowly went out, as if the light inside was being absorbed.

"Snapped!"

The green bead broke into several petals.

He rubbed it gently, and the fragments turned into powder and fell from his fingertips.

He opened his eyes, his expression solemn, cold and murderous.

Chu Honglin asked curiously: "Can't use it?"

"I saw what was inside," Chu Zhiyuan said coldly, "The demon really deserves to die!"

"They should be exterminated!" Chu Honglin asked, "What is the feeling inside?"

"He extracted six pieces of martial arts insights, four from our Spirit Guards and two from the demon race."

"..."

"After the spirit guard died, they did not let go of his soul. This bead can extract the martial arts insights in the soul."

"He deserves to die!" Chu Honglin gritted his teeth, his eyes quickly filled with bloodshot.

Chu Zhiyuan knew at a glance that he had touched his wound.

It is speculated that he had a good friend who died at the hands of the devil, and this friend might even be a female.

Therefore, he has been in a depressed state and unable to get out of it for a long time.

After a while, Chu Honglin calmed down and said through gritted teeth: "Are our spirit guards here?"

“…No.” Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

He sighed inwardly.

I lied. In fact, there really are spiritual guards from the Yujing Dynasty.

This spiritual guard is a master of Xuanyin Palace.

But there was no need to tell Chu Honglin the truth, and what's more, Chu Honglin probably didn't really want to know.

Chu Honglin snorted, "Really?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "They are from the Phoenix Dynasty and the Yuanzhen Dynasty, as well as masters from the demon clan."

Chu Honglin gritted his teeth and said, "All the demons should be destroyed. No one should be left alive. Any who are left behind will only bring disaster!"

Chu Zhiyuan said with deep conviction: "There are not as many great demons that have taken over other people's bodies as imagined. There are still two, one is in Yixin Tower and the other is in Yaoyue Courtyard."

"Witch?"

"I don't know about that." Chu Zhiyuan shook his head.

In fact, he was certain that one was a woman and the other was a servant.

Chu Honglin said coldly: "I will capture them all in one fell swoop, and then kill them with the Exorcist Ruyi."

Chu Zhiyuan nodded.

-

It was already the middle of the night when the two returned to Chu Zhiyuan's Prince's Mansion.

Before leaving, Chu Honglin took out a small box from his sleeve and handed it to Chu Zhiyuan: "This is for you."

Chu Zhiyuan took it in surprise and opened it directly.

Inside the box were three willow-leaf-shaped knives, only as long as an index finger, looming and as round as autumn water.

"This is the Autumn Water Divine Sword." Chu Honglin said, "It has the effect of making you invisible."

Chu Zhiyuan reached out and picked up one, and it felt cool to the touch, just like reaching into a clear spring.

"After injecting true essence into it, it can conceal its aura and appearance. It is a treasure from the demon clan."

"Autumn Water Divine Sword..." Chu Zhiyuan swung it gently and threw it into the air.

It instantly disappeared into the void.

But he could feel its presence, rising higher and higher.

A moment later, it reappeared ten feet in the air, as clear as water in the moonlight.

"What a nice sword!" Chu Zhiyuan exclaimed.

He had never demonstrated his flying knife skills in front of Chu Honglin, and had no experience in learning.

"Uncle Fifteen, do we have any amazing flying knife skills in Diwu Academy?"

"It seems there is a second-grade martial art called Jinghong Sword Art, which is a flying knife."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Then I'll go and learn it tomorrow."

"Now that I have the Autumn Water Divine Sword, it's worth practicing the Shocking Sword Technique."

Xuanyin Palace

Xiao Ruoling stood motionless in the middle of the courtyard.

Her skin was as white as jade, like a white jade fairy statue.

The hazy moonlight descended from the sky, gathered on her from all around, and turned into a clear spring flowing over her body.

It's like a clear spring washing the white jade.

She slightly closed her eyes, looking solemn.

"Senior sister!"

There was a knock on the door from outside.

"Come in." Xiao Ruoling said.

Shen Hanyue pushed the door open and came in, also dressed in white clothes as white as snow. She came up to her lightly and said with a smile: "Senior Sister, there is a letter for you."

Xiao Ruoling was surprised.

Shen Hanyue handed over a purple lacquer box: "The Ninth Prince sent the guards from his palace to deliver it personally. You have to open it yourself."

Xiao Ruoling's bright eyes flashed.

Shen Hanyue asked: "What does this Ninth Prince mean?"

Xiao Ruoling shook her head slightly.

She no longer thought of the Ninth Prince as Chu Zhiyuan, but as someone else.

A while ago, I went back to Xiaotianwaitian and met Chu Zhiyuan from Prince Qing's Mansion.

As the Ninth Prince in the imperial city of the Yujing Dynasty, she had completely lost all sense of connection with him and was isolated from Chu Zhiyuan.

It’s just like treating the Ninth Prince as a subordinate of Chu Zhiyuan.

There is no need to contact each other normally. Even if they do, it is Chu Zhiyuan who gives the order and asks the Ninth Prince to take action.

What's more, the Ninth Prince and Chu Zhiyuan looked very different, which made it easier for her to distinguish them completely.

Shen Hanyue asked curiously: "What's in here? Senior Sister, do you want to open it and take a look?"

"Junior sister, please open it."

"okay."

Shen Hanyue agreed readily and couldn't wait to open the purple lacquer box.

There are six fruits of different shapes in the box, red, green, purple and white.

There was also a letter next to it.

Shen Hanyue looked at the six fruits curiously and handed the letter to Xiao Ruoling: "Senior Sister, here you go."

Xiao Ruoling unfolded the letter and handed it to Shen Hanyue.

Shen Hanyue glanced at the contents of the letter and was surprised: "Is it the miraculous fruit that increases cultivation? Or is it the one from Yujing Cave Heaven!... This Ninth Prince is really generous!"

They have been listening to the master's teachings these days and know about the Thirty-Six Cave Heavens and the Jade View Cave Heaven.

Even the master was envious of the rare treasures in Yujing Cave.

It is rare in the world to have miraculous fruits that can improve one's cultivation without any side effects. They only exist in Yujing Cave Heaven. The miraculous fruits in the Thirty-Six Cave Heavens can also improve one's cultivation, but they have side effects.

Xiao Ruoling smiled.

He knew that this was not the Ninth Prince's generosity, but Chu Zhiyuan's order.

"Senior sister, the reputation of this Ninth Prince is not very good!" Shen Hanyue said: "He is irritable and easily angered, speaks hurtful words, and is not grateful... He is so grateful, does he have ulterior motives?"

These six strange fruits are all second-grade strange fruits and their effects are extraordinary.

Such a valuable gift is said to be a way to repay the senior sister for saving his life.

This is different from what is said in the legend.

If he was not such a grateful person, but he returned such a generous gift, he must have ulterior motives.

What could be the intention?
It's obvious to guess that he was attracted by the stunning beauty of his senior sister.

Xiao Ruoling smiled and said, "It's understandable to think so, but since he said it's to repay the life-saving grace, just accept it."

"Yes, accept it first. If he comes again, just ignore him." Shen Hanyue agreed: "We are Xuanyin Palace, we are not afraid of him!"

Other sects are afraid of the prince, but the four major sects are not afraid and they keep to themselves.

She then asked, "Sister, do you want to take this? Why don't you go see Master first?"

"No need." Xiao Ruoling smiled and picked up a green fruit and handed it to her: "This is for you."

Shen Hanyue waved her hands to refuse.

Xiao Ruoling smiled and said, "You come and try the poison."

"Senior sister, this is an opportunity. If you eat these, your cultivation will greatly increase. Of course I can't take it."

"Next time you have a chance, just give it to me."

"No, no, no."

"Stop talking too much." Xiao Ruoling stuffed the green fruit directly into her mouth with amazing speed.

Shen Hanyue immediately leaned back to dodge, but broke the peel and her pretty face wrinkled.

Xiao Ruoling looked at her with a smile and put a green fruit into her mouth.

They both closed their eyes at the same time, feeling the wonderful sensation of their improved cultivation.

Xiao Ruoling was experiencing it while pondering the secret words in the letter.

The secret message asked her to go back to Xiaotianwaitian and meet Prince Qing at his mansion as soon as possible, the sooner the better.
