Chapter 277: Jiang Ruo Hua's Guidance

The residence was filled with a bloody stench.

Shi Rushan and Shi Ruolan, the brother and sister, lay dead in a pitiful state.

Great Wisdom True Monarch looked at the tragic scene within the residence and couldn't help but remark, "You were a bit impulsive. You killed them too quickly."

Qi Yuan's actions were swift and decisive. He directly uprooted Destiny Mountain, effortlessly slaying Shi Rushan and Shi Ruolan.

"Hmm?"

"We should ask if there are any more birds; I haven't even had a taste yet." Great Wisdom True Monarch glanced at Qi Yuan and contemplated seriously.

"There will be plenty of opportunities in the future," Qi Yuan replied softly.

In his hand, a peculiar small wooden door appeared.

This door was the support of Destiny Mountain, the Gate of Destiny.

Shi Ruolan had relied on this Gate of Destiny to summon the Chaos Filth Bird.

However, in Qi Yuan's eyes, this Gate of Destiny was the Ten Thousand Varieties Gate of the Liufeng Realm.

Of course, this small wooden door was not the actual Ten Thousand Varieties Gate, but merely a token, a symbol that could summon a faint shadow of the Ten Thousand Varieties Gate.

"Is there a Game Gate within the Ten Thousand Varieties Gate?"

If there is, that means I can play games inside it every day, right?"

Qi Yuan thought to himself.

He and Great Wisdom True Monarch returned to the Pathfinding Palace.

In Light Crane City, Qi Yuan's previous roar had caused a stir.

However, the other Dark Deities and cultivators were unaware of what had happened and only had some questions in their minds.

In the following days, Light Crane City regained its tranquility.

The Origin Spirit Sharing Society continued its development as usual.

The Divine Flower Association's activities were in full swing.

Throughout the Canglan Realm, approximately one-third of the regions were immersed in a frenzy of uploading techniques and providing assistance.

Some secluded elders emerged from their seclusion, either to offer help or to upload their techniques.

More and more powerful Dark Deities were heading towards the Phoenix Heavenly Domain, as if they wanted to meet the legendary Blood Robe Sword God.

During this time, Qi Yuan dispatched three Grand Venerables to assist the Ice Mountain Tyrant Maiden in breaking through the Dark Deity Realm.

When the Ice Mountain Tyrant Maiden's grandfather met the three Grand Venerables, his expression was quite fascinating.

Especially upon hearing that the Blood Robe Sword God was the Heavenly Foundation Establishment whom his granddaughter had mentioned, he couldn't help but sigh.

When the three Grand Venerables saw the Ice Mountain Tyrant Maiden's grandfather, they immediately noticed the severe injuries on the Ice Soul Venerable's body.

The injuries were critical, leaving him with only a hundred years of lifespan.

The three Grand Venerables, having come from afar, knew of the close relationship between the Ice Mountain Tyrant Maiden and the Blood Robe Sword God. As a gesture of gratitude, they treated the Ice Soul Venerable's injuries with their precious treasures, easily healing him to a great extent.

The Origin Spirit Sharing Society's collection of techniques continued to grow.

The Divine Flower Association's collection of techniques also reached a terrifying level.

Within the forum, various posts appeared.

"Haha, Senior Brother obtained a middle-grade Heaven Rank technique!"

"Who can help me? My Heaven Rank technique was snatched away!"

"Quickly, seek justice from the Blood Robe Sword God!"

"100 points are not enough for perfection!"

"Fellow cultivators, let's work together to obtain the Divine Arts!"

"I never imagined that I would have a chance at the Divine Arts in this lifetime. Thank you, Divine Flower Association, and thank you, Blood Robe Sword God."

"I've decided, I want both the senior sister and the junior sister."

At this time, the Divine Flower Association had accumulated a terrifying number of techniques.

The overall progress bar was stuck at 99%, and it had been like this for two days.

However, even so, there were no complaints within the Divine Flower Association's forum. Instead, the cultivators encouraged each other.

With the Divine Arts just one step away, the cultivators' speed of uploading techniques also increased.

At that moment, on the spirit boat heading towards the Great Shang Nation, Jiang Ruo Hua wore a long dark cyan robe, her expression calm.

"This Blood Robe Sword God from the Divine Flower Association is quite something. The progress bar has been stuck at 99% for two days now."

On the journey to the Great Shang Nation, he inevitably came across the Divine Flower Association.

His personal progress bar had already reached 51%, making it difficult to increase further.

Therefore, he turned his attention to the overall progress bar of the Divine Flower Association's application that provides a platform for users to share and exchange techniques. It offers a variety of techniques and resources for cultivation.

Jiang Ruo Hua thought and turned to the young man beside her. She saw the exceptionally handsome man lowering his head, also fiddling with the Divine Flower Association's jade slip.

Jiang Ruo Hua, having experienced it herself, spoke to the young man beside her, "I guess this 99% will be stuck for at least a year or two. Whether the Divine Arts exist or not is another question, even if the Blood Robe Sword God is willing to give them."

This handsome man was someone Jiang Ruo Hua had met on the spirit boat.

After all, on the spirit boat to the Great Shang Nation, there were cultivators with the Divine Flower Association's jade slips. This man's aura was quite mysterious, and his cultivation level was indiscernible, which was why they became acquainted.

The handsome man lifted his head, a smile in his eyes, "Fellow cultivator, a person like the Blood Robe Sword God would never deceive others. His word is as good as gold."

I'd wager that within three days, this progress bar will reach 100%, and everyone will obtain the Divine Art!"

"Those high-level cultivators' words can be dismissed as mere hot air."

"But this is a Divine Art, one that's probably not even available in the Canglan Realm. Who would be willing to make it public?"

"Even if they did, I suspect it would be an incomplete version!" Jiang Ruhua asserted confidently.

"Fellow Daoist, you view people's hearts as too treacherous," the handsome man smiled, "I'm 90% certain that within three days, we'll witness the Divine Art."

The man spoke with unwavering confidence.

His assurance stemmed from the fact that he was Qi Yuan, and the progress bar would likely be fully filled in three days.

There was another reason for his confidence; in three days, the game icon would also be complete, and he was eager to enter the game. Naturally, he wouldn't hold back on sharing the Divine Art.

It was just a single Divine Art.

He wasn't that stingy.

Seeing this, Jiang Ruhua smiled but remained silent.

Changing the subject, he asked, "Fellow Daoist, being from the Great Shang Nation, do you know of Qi Yuan from the Divine Light Sect?"

Qi Yuan's eyes lit up upon hearing this, "Of course I know him. He's the first Divine Infant in the Great Shang Nation, and also the nation's most handsome man. With his formidable strength, his hatred for evil, and his graceful demeanor..."

Qi Yuan used all the phrases he knew to describe the man.

Jiang Ruhua was a bit confused by this, and he narrowed his eyes.

"It seems you highly admire this person," Jiang Ruhua thought to himself.

The Divine Light Sect was indeed the top power in the Great Shang Nation, and a Divine Infant True Monarch held significant influence there.

It was only natural for cultivators in the Great Shang Nation to admire him.

"I admire him as much as I admire myself!" Qi Yuan declared earnestly.

At this moment, the Great Wisdom True Monarch spoke up, "Not only is he the first Divine Infant in the Great Shang Nation, but he's also the first in the Eastern Lands, and perhaps even the first in the Canglan Realm!"

Jiang Ruhua glanced at the Great Wisdom True Monarch but chose not to continue the conversation.

He understood that he had encountered a devoted fan of his daughter's Eldest Senior Brother.

Calling Qi Yuan the first Divine Infant in the Great Shang Nation was one thing, but to claim he was the first in the Eastern Lands, or even the Canglan Realm, was bold.

"If my memory serves me right, among the Hundred Nations, only Kang Fulu from the Divine Light Sect made it onto the Eastern Lands' Proud Heavens Ranking."

"It seems that Qi Yuan is not as remarkable as Kang Fulu," Jiang Ruhua remarked.

"I've met Kang Fulu, and he's no match for Qi Yuan," the Great Wisdom True Monarch said, looking at Qi Yuan, "If they were to fight, Kang Fulu wouldn't last a single move against Qi Yuan."

"Hmph, it's just an old man taking advantage of the weak!" Jiang Ruhua felt annoyed whenever he thought of Qi Yuan.

A Divine Infant True Monarch, a man of nearly a thousand years, was pursuing his daughter, who was not even twenty years old.

Hearing this, Qi Yuan couldn't help but protest, "How dare you tarnish my reputation without any evidence! I'm quite young."

He couldn't tolerate being called old, especially when it was Kang Fulu being described as weak.

Qi Yuan was youthful and in his prime.

"Even if he's young, are you younger?" Jiang Ruhua couldn't resist saying.

The man before him was full of vitality and clearly looked young, in the prime of his life.

But Qi Yuan, having achieved the Divine Infant stage in the Great Shang Nation, was likely quite old.

"We're about the same age," Qi Yuan muttered, then asked, "Fellow Daoist, do you know Qi Yuan? Why do you harbor such ill intentions towards him?"

Jiang Ruhua didn't respond.

After all, he couldn't very well admit that he had come to the Great Shang Nation solely because of his daughter's affair with Qi Yuan.

That would be too embarrassing.

After some thought, Jiang Ruhua changed the subject, "Fellow Daoist, didn't you say that the Blood Robe Sword God would reveal the Divine Art in three days?

Here, let's add my jade slip. We'll see who's right in three days."

Qi Yuan smiled upon hearing this, "If you lose the bet, you'll have to apologize on the Divine Flower Association's forum. Yes, an apology on the forum would be interesting."

Unfortunately, the Divine Flower Association couldn't post videos, otherwise, having the fellow Daoist apologize via video would be more amusing.

"Fellow Daoist, you're very confident... Hm? Are you the Origin Venerable?" Jiang Ruhua was surprised.

He had been following the Divine Flower Association's forum, and he knew that the Origin Venerable was one of the most popular figures there.

This person often shared updates on his cultivation progress, especially the interesting happenings within his sect.

Stories about the large-breasted junior sister and the cold junior sister.

Based on these shares, the Origin Venerable was likely a Primordial Core cultivator.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, did you choose the junior sister or the senior sister?" Jiang Ruhua revealed a slightly lecherous smile.

"It's all made up, everything in there is my fabrication," Qi Yuan quickly denied.

Of course, the junior sister and senior sister were fictional.

"Ah, fellow Daoist, there's no need to be shy. We're all male cultivators, I understand you.

I once faced a similar situation, one was a junior sister, the other a senior sister," Jiang Ruhua reminisced, his expression nostalgic, "Later, I successfully formed a Daoist couple with the junior sister!"

At this, Jiang Ruhua looked proud, "From your description, your senior sister seems rather arrogant, and she's from a noble background. In my opinion, choosing the junior sister is better."

"If not, life in the future... sigh."

Jiang Ruhua couldn't help but sigh, as if he had experienced a lot.

"From your description, it seems like your junior sister has deep feelings for you.

As for your senior sister, she seems rather distant and indifferent." Jiang Ruhua continued.

Qi Yuan agreed with Jiang Ruhua's words.

When making up the story, the junior sister's character was based on Jiang Lingsu, making it somewhat realistic.

The senior sister, indeed, was a bit vague and hard to read.

"According to what you've said, your junior sister's father is quite difficult to deal with, and his relationship with the Sect Master is unpredictable. He doesn't think highly of you but has his eyes on the Sect Master's daughter.

This matter is easy to handle. Haha, since your junior sister already has deep feelings for you, find a night of romance, and let nature take its course."

Jiang Ruhua shared his successful experience, stroking his beard with a proud look.

Qi Yuan was speechless.

He couldn't bring himself to do such a thing.

More importantly, it was all made up.

"If you follow my advice, you'll definitely be able to marry your junior sister.

As the saying goes, a daughter given away is like water spilled. After you two get married, your junior sister will certainly side with you.

Your junior sister's family is also quite wealthy. She can easily provide you with cultivation techniques, allowing you to obtain heavenly arts at the Divine Flower Assembly and gather resources. Before you know it, you might become a Divine Infancy True Monarch."

At that time, your father-in-law, who looks down on people, will surely bow to you."

The latter part was naturally Jiang Ruhua's fantasy.

Unfortunately, his fantasy never came true.

Currently, he was only at the late stage of Divine Infancy, still far from the Purple Mansion Realm.

His father-in-law's strength was at the peak of Divine Infancy, far surpassing him.

"Seeing a person, I speak human words; seeing a ghost, I speak ghost words," Qi Yuan thought to himself, deciding to flatter Jiang Ruhua.

"Young man, follow my advice, and within half a month, you'll be able to marry your junior sister.

After you and your junior sister wed, if I'm still in the Great Shang Nation, you must invite me as the matchmaker and offer me a cup of wedding wine!" Jiang Ruhua said with satisfaction.

After all, meeting Qi Yuan, he felt like he had returned to the days in the sect.

However, later, after returning to the family, the past could only become a distant memory.

Qi Yuan shrugged and replied casually, "Sure!"

He wouldn't actually invite him.

He and his junior sister were as pure as crystal.

Jiang Ruhua narrowed his eyes. "Meeting is fate. If you encounter difficulties with your junior sister's good fortune, seek out this old man. My favorite pastime is playing matchmaker."

"Mhm," Qi Yuan nodded. He glanced at Jiang Lingsu and said softly, "Fellow Daoist, I'll soon be picked up by my junior sister."

Jiang Ruhua's eyes widened. "Your junior sister truly has feelings for you."

He thought of his daughter, and a wisp of worry appeared in his heart.

His daughter didn't even come to pick him up!

However, the worry soon dissipated.

If the Origin Venerable had a daughter, she probably wouldn't come to pick him up either.

Thinking of this, he felt relieved.

Just then, a crisp voice rang out.

"Daddy, you're back!"

Qi Jianjun rushed into Qi Yuan's embrace, her face beaming with a bright smile.

Qi Yuan was helpless. "Jianjun, there's a proper distance between men and women!"

He needed to hang himself to avoid the taboo.

If this scene were to be recorded and uploaded online, he would surely be cyberbullied to death.

"Daddy, you're my father. What's wrong with a hug?" Qi Jianjun said, jumping out of Qi Yuan's embrace.

At this moment, Jiang Ruhua was stunned. He looked at Qi Yuan. "You have a daughter?"

"Mhm," Qi Yuan nodded firmly. "Most of the content I posted on the Divine Flower Assembly forum was made up.

I don't have a senior sister, nor do I..."

"Daddy, you clearly have a large-breasted junior sister. When will you win her over? Then I'll have a third mother!" Qi Jianjun thought seriously.

Her birth mother was naturally Jin Li.

The second mother was Ning Tuo.

The third mother, in Qi Jianjun's eyes, was Jiang Lingsu.

"Ahem, stop talking nonsense," Qi Yuan felt embarrassed.

It seemed like he couldn't make up stories in the future, as people would misunderstand.

Jiang Ruhua, standing beside them, heard Qi Jianjun's words and widened his eyes. "Your Dao cultivation is so profound?"

He felt a bit ashamed.

According to this little girl's words, the Daoist before him already had two Daoist partners.

It seemed like the relationship between the Daoist partners was harmonious.

Now, he was considering a third Daoist partner.

This made Jiang Ruhua both envious and jealous, and he also felt guilty for his previous advice.

He secretly transmitted a sound to Qi Yuan. "Fellow Daoist, how did you manage to have two Daoist partners and still be able to pursue another?"

Teach me, old man!

I'll surely reward you handsomely!

Jiang Ruhua looked extremely curious.
