"Father, but..." Zhao Xiaowen said worriedly.
Zhao Ze said coldly, "Xiaowen, this is my bottom line. If Lin Chen wants to marry you, he must show his strength." Zhao Ze took a deep breath.
Xiaowen took a deep breath and remained silent, but she's already determined in her heart that if the final victor is not Lin Chen, even if she chooses to die, she will not be with another man.
At this mont, Lin Chen and the Skeleton Elder are on their way to the Immortal City.
"Master, the Immortal City has four major families: the Mu family, Bai family, Sun family, and Zhao family. These four families have influence spread across different corners of the Immortal Realm. Among them, the Mu family is the strongest, while the Zhao family has lost several experts in recent years, making its strength much weaker. That's why the Zhao family wants to form an alliance with the Mu family," the Skeleton Elder explained.
"Hmm, this so-called marriage tournant is probably just Zhao Ze's excuse to deceive Xiaowen," Lin Chen's eyes flashed coldly as he spoke.
"Indeed, in the Immortal Realm, apart from a few big sects, no one dares to provoke the Mu family, so..."
"By the way, Skeleton, have you heard of the na Li iying?" Lin Chen suddenly asked.
"Li iying? Are you perhaps talking about the genius girl from Saintess Peak?" the Skeleton Elder said, sowhat surprised.
"Genius girl?" Lin Chen was also taken aback for a mont.
The Skeleton Elder continued, "Li iying possesses the Jade Maiden Physique and is said to have been apprenticed to Shangguan Wan'er of Jade Maiden Peak. Among the younger generation on the Immortal Rankings, she is ranked third."
"Oh, I didn't expect she would be so exceptional." Lin Chen took a deep breath.
It seems that I'll definitely have to visit Jade Maiden Peak in the future, especially since I had a date with her back in the Earth dinsion.
The two continued on their journey, and Lin Chen suddenly furrowed his brow.
This ti, they were traveling with a caravan, but compared to last ti, the conditions were certainly much better.
The carriage had only Lin Chen and the Skeleton Elder, and it was spacious and tidy. There was even soone dedicated to providing fruits and als, so they didn't have to squeeze in with others.
"What city lies ahead? It seems many experts are heading there," Lin Chen asked, puzzled.
The Skeleton Elder said seriously, "The place ahead is Chessboard Mountain. So many experts are heading there because the Immortal Realm's most famous Artifact Refining Master is lecturing on Chessboard Mountain, and Tian Jiao is the most renowned Artifact Refining Master in the Immortal Realm. If lucky, one might invite him to craft a Spiritual Artifact."
"So that's it." Lin Chen nodded.
The allure of a Spiritual Artifact is exceedingly tempting to a Martial Artist, which explains why so many people are heading to Chessboard Mountain.
"Let's go and take a look." Lin Chen said with a slight smile.
Although he himself possessed the Tianyan Ancient Sword, his won didn't have any good weapons.
This ti, Lin Chen also wanted the Artifact Refining Master to craft a few fitting weapons for Xue Ying and the others.
"This Tian Jiao must be quite impressive, right?" Lin Chen smiled.
The Skeleton Elder sighed, "Although Tian Jiao is an Artifact Refining Master, his strength isn't high; he's only at the Immortal Lord realm. This has created a rather embarrassing situation where many don't show him much respect."
"Oh, I see." Lin Chen furrowed his brow.
Strength commands respect; this is the law of the Immortal Realm. Apparently, Tian Jiao's na is awe-inspiring, and he possesses expertise in formations and artifact refining, but still doesn't earn respect.
These people likely hope to beco the fortunate ones who have a Spiritual Artifact crafted after hearing his lecture.
When Lin Chen and the Skeleton Elder arrived at Chessboard Mountain, it was already dark.
Several girls also erged from Lin Chen's Tianyan space.
The scenery of Chessboard Mountain was quite impressive, and Lin Chen booked an exceptionally spacious room.
After dinner, Qin Lan cheerfully said, "Lin Chen, tonight we've all decided to let Sister Xue Ying accompany you."
Xue Ying's face turned red, clearly a bit shy.
Lin Chen looked at these mischievous girls sowhat speechlessly.
Late at night, Xue Ying gazed at the picturesque scenery outside the window as if in a dream.
Lin Chen hugged her slender waist from behind, "Xiaoying, it's my fault for letting you be wronged."
Xue Ying used her small hand to cover Lin Chen's mouth, "Lin Chen, you don't need to feel guilty. Since I followed you, I'm prepared for everything. This is as it should be because I'm your woman."
A faint fragrance wafted into Lin Chen's nose, and he gently embraced Xue Ying's slender waist, and the two fell onto the bed.
The next morning, after a tumultuous battle all night, Xue Ying's pretty face showed signs of exhaustion.
Several young beauties erged and saw Xue Ying with amused expressions.
"Sister Ying, our husband seems to have gotten stronger, hasn't he?"
"Be honest, did you recently lock us in the Tianyan space and find so beauties to practice with?" Anna said with a stern face.
Lin Chen awkwardly smiled, "No, having you is more than enough."
Even though he said so, an image of a graceful figure appeared in his mind.
In the morning, Lin Chen and the girls went shopping in the small town at the foot of Chessboard Mountain, purchasing many materials needed for crafting Spiritual Artifacts.
I have to say, the resources in the Immortal Realm are exceedingly abundant.
As long as you have spirit stones, there's almost nothing you can't buy.
Each of the girls selected weapons according to their requirents.
"Master, each ti Tian Jiao crafts artifacts, there are only ten slots. Apart from those pre-determined, the true slots eligible for his craftsmanship are at most one or two. I'm afraid he won't craft so many weapons for you," the Skeleton Elder said worriedly.
Lin Chen smiled calmly, "Don't worry, I have my ways."
Speaking, Lin Chen had the Skeleton Elder take out a brush and paper, and he directly wrote a letter, handing it to the Skeleton Elder.
"Deliver this letter to Tian Jiao; I believe he will take the initiative to et ," Lin Chen said with a slight smile.
The Skeleton Elder, half-believing, kept the letter. He was sowhat skeptical, questioning whether the other party would truly respect Lin Chen.
The next morning, Lin Chen and the Skeleton Elder arrived at Tian Jiao's residence.
Upon arrival at the entrance, Lin Chen couldn't help but furrow his brow.
He saw that the entrance to Tian Jiao's residence was already crowded with people, mostly those seeking to have artifacts crafted by Tian Jiao.
But they also knew the slots were limited, so most were there to try their luck.
"Master, allow to make way for you." The Skeleton Elder released a chill, causing the Martial Artists to tremble in spirit and obediently make a path for them.
Arriving at the entrance, the Skeleton Elder said to the gatekeeper, "Please relay a ssage to my master Lin Chen who's here to visit."
"Ah, Lord Lin Chen, please wait a mont. I'll report this imdiately." The gatekeeper heard Lin Chen's na and showed a respectful expression.
It should be known that earlier that day, Lord Tian Jiao instructed that if Lin Chen appeared, he should be treated with the courtesy of a distinguished guest.
After a short while, the tightly closed door of Tian Jiao's residence suddenly opened, and a middle-aged man swiftly ca out.
Seeing this scene, everyone present was astonished. Just what kind of guest could prompt Tian Jiao to personally co out to greet him?
