After conquering the Empress, I proved my Dao with the Heaven and Earth Spirit Furnace!

With his perfect looks and elegant demeanor, Wang Teng could attract everyone's attention just by standing there.

He smiled slightly, his expression becoming increasingly indifferent, his disregard for Qin Chuan directly transforming into inward contempt.

When he looked up, he completely ignored Qin Chuan, as if the other party was an ant that he could crush with one hand.

Wang Xifan took in all the changes in Wang Teng's expression.

He frowned, and when he looked at Qin Chuan again, a glint of malice flashed in his eyes.

A smile appeared on his lips as he immediately recognized Qin Chuan, who would have died at his hands if he hadn't run away quickly.

His smile, like Wang Teng's, reflected contempt and disregard for Qin Chuan.

"interesting…"

Wang Xifan smiled, his smile utterly indifferent, and spoke coldly in a voice only he and Wang Teng could hear.

"I never expected this person to be a disciple of the Wuji Palace. Wang Teng, you have now broken through to the ninth level of the Xuan King realm. You should prepare to break through to the Xuan Emperor realm in the future!"

"Kill him here to prove that you are a prodigy and he is an ant, and to completely sever the inner demons in your heart!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng remained calm and composed, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"There's no such thing as an inner demon; I've almost completely forgotten what happened back then..."

Wang Teng said calmly, "I should even thank this person. If he hadn't ruined my plans and prevented me from entering the Tai'e Inheritance, I might not be a Dao Child now, and I wouldn't have been able to break through to the ninth level of the Profound King realm so quickly thanks to the family's resources!"

He paused for a moment, then said, "However, I still intend to give him a gift, so I'll send him on his way right here!"

Wang Teng's expression remained unchanged, and his gaze never once fell upon Qin Chuan.

It seemed that, just as he had said, killing Qin Chuan would be as easy as turning one's hand.

He stopped paying attention to Qin Chuan and instead looked into the distance, his brows furrowed slightly.

It was as if she already had something on her mind before coming here.

Seeing Wang Teng's expression, Wang Xifan frowned and said in a low voice, "Don't overthink it. Yu Yan isn't that kind of person. You have to trust her."

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng remained silent for a few breaths, then gritted his teeth and said, "If I find out who that person is, I will tear him to pieces and grind his bones to dust!"

When he spoke, his eyes were filled with coldness and ruthlessness.

Even more so, endless frustration!

The killing intent in his eyes surpassed even his previous attitude towards Qin Chuan; he could no longer remain calm or ignore him.

Wang Xifan sighed and said in a deep voice, "But Yu Yan is still your fiancée, and she's also a member of the Fang family, and a disciple of Master Dan Chen of the Wendan Sect. For you to participate in the Li family's selection of a son-in-law like this... I'm afraid..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Teng's expression shifted between light and dark, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "If I marry Yu Yan, I won't receive much help from the Fang family."

Although she was Master Danchen's disciple, she was only nominally so and was not fully recognized by Master Danchen.

If I can marry Li Yun Chu, in addition to getting the Dao Scripture and the Heavenly Pearl, the resources of the two great families will be tilted towards me!

If Yu Yan is sensible, I will take her as a concubine then…”

With that, his gaze hardened, and he continued, "Therefore, I am determined to win the Li family's son-in-law selection this time!"

"Ugh…"

Wang Xifan sighed, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything more.

Now that we're here, there's no point in saying anything more.

However, based on his understanding of Fang Yuyan, he feared things wouldn't develop so well.

But as Wang Teng said, as long as he could become the son-in-law of the Li family, all problems would naturally be solved.

But if…

Wang Xifan shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

Qin Chuan remained calm, his gaze already withdrawn. He was somewhat surprised to see Wang Teng here.

He clearly remembered that the other person seemed to be Fang Yuyan's fiancé.

As for the grudge between him and Wang Teng, Qin Chuan didn't take it too seriously.

Although Wang Teng had stopped him from entering the Tai'e inheritance, he had also severed one of Wang Teng's fingers.

In the end, by a twist of fate, they ended up in a deserted place of inheritance, which actually saved them a lot of trouble.

Most importantly, this place is crowded with people and various sects and families, making it unsuitable for taking action.

Given his strength back then, he was capable of fighting the other party, and even had a chance of winning.

Not to mention his current level of skill, he really has little desire to take action.

What Qin Chuan is currently eyeing is the Heavenly Pearl in the Li family's son-in-law recruitment. This pearl can cure all kinds of poisons in the world, which makes his heart flutter!

He didn't know if the Heavenly Pearl could unlock the Ghost Face Flower.

But this thing is said to be able to cure all the world's most rare poisons, and it is also a treasure of the Li family, so it must be extraordinary!

"Perhaps, it really can be solved..."

Qin Chuan's eyes flickered.

He still vividly remembered the excruciating pain of the Ghost Face Flower attack; the mental anguish far surpassed the physical pain.

Most importantly, once it reaches the later stages, it is very likely to become a mature Ghost Flower.

If such a danger could be nipped in the bud, that would be ideal.

Thinking of this, Qin Chuan took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes.

At this moment, Li Ziming, Elder Zou, and the old man leading the Wang family transformed into a streak of light and headed straight for the Li family, which was now shrouded in darkness.

On the ground, the members of the Li family who had come with Li Ziming arrived at Wuji Palace and Wang family respectively.

"Fellow Daoists, please show your identities to prevent any unscrupulous individuals from sneaking into our Li family. We apologize for any offense caused!"

Two people stepped out from the Li family members, smiling, and greeted the crowd with clasped hands.

As they spoke, members of the Li family began to check everyone's identities.

After the inspection is completed, you can proceed.

"Haha... Once the Li family discovers his identity, it won't concern me anymore, and no one in the sect will suspect me!"

Seeing that the Li family members were about to examine him, Liang Yong's eyes flickered, and a barely perceptible smile appeared on his lips.

Before long, Liang Yong showed his sect token and walked forward.

In the Wuji Palace team, only Qin Chuan remained.

"Senior brother, please show me your sect token!"

The Li family member who was checking identities came up to Qin Chuan, smiling and clasping his hands in greeting.

"Ok!"

Qin Chuan nodded and handed over his token.

Upon seeing the token, the Li family member paused for a moment before returning it, saying, "Senior...Senior Brother, please!"

"Thank you!"

After putting away the token, Qin Chuan clasped his hands slightly and followed the group from Wuji Palace ahead.

"strangeness…"

Watching Qin Chuan's departing figure, the Li family member scratched his head, a look of confusion on his face.

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong?"

At this moment, a friend of the Li family member walked over and, noticing the other person's unusual behavior, couldn't help but ask curiously.

"What that person showed me was a token from the Heavenly Sword Sect, but didn't the people from the Heavenly Sword Sect arrive a while ago...?"

The Li family member named Xiao Wu scratched his head in confusion.
