Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Being able to withstand two of my attacks, you truly are a great Young Emperor!” Chu Kuangren grinned as he looked towards the injured Shang Han on the floor.

Fangtian and the others’ mouths twitched when they heard those words from afar

‘A Young Emperor can only take two blows?’

‘And you still call him a great Young Emperor? Can’t you be any more obvious with those insulting remarks?’

‘Isn’t he only hostile towards you?’

‘Is there a need to humiliate him like this though?’

Everyone muttered within their hearts as they dared not speak out openly. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Princess Linglong, who was beside the Royal Azure Dynasty King, looked at the dazzling white-robed Chu Kuangren with sparkles in her eyes.

That was the man she would marry in the future and he truly was a peerless talent indeed!

‘Which lady has never thought of being in love?’

‘Which lady has never wished or hoped that the person she chooses will be a strong and powerful hero?’

Although that marriage arrangement was based on a transaction of benefits, yet at that moment, sparks of affection started to grow within Princess Linglong’s heart.

‘In terms of talents and looks, my heavenly Chu Kuangren has it all’

‘He’s the most unique in this world!’

Whoosh…

An elderly man flew to Shang Han’s side. Picking up the Young Emperor in his arms, the elderly man asked, “Young Emperor, are you alright?”

Looking at the embarrassing mess Shang Han was in, the elderly man’s heart was filled with shock.

One should know that Shang Han himself was a Young Emperor!

He was one of the most top-notched sky-prides on the Firmament Star. However, why would he end up in such a disgraceful manner before Chu Kuangren?

‘That’s impossible!’

The elderly man was confused and puzzled.

Even Shang Han himself could not understand why as well. All these years, he had been a near-invincible person among his peers, so this was his first time experiencing the taste of defeat.

Anger, dissatisfaction, shame, shock…

Various emotions riled up within his heart as he stared at Chu Kuangren as if he wanted to burn his opponent’s face into his mind forever.

“Just you wait, I shall return for your head next time!” Shang Han spoke ruthlessly and left the palace with the elderly man.

The battle today had shattered all the pride he once had.

However, he had also found a new goal because of that.

‘I shall surpass Chu Kuangren!’

“His Daoist core is quite strong, unlike a certain crown prince I know of,” Chu Kuangren casually said, with no intentions to kill off his opponent.

Previously in the secret realm, it was Lei Ao who wanted to kill him first, whereas this time, it was just a simple sparring match. If he dealt a ruthless killing blow to Shang Han, the Shang Clan might not let him go that easily, unlike the Thunder Falcon Tribe. If an orthodoxy great war happened because of this, it would only bring harm to both sides.

He did not deny that he was indeed a mad person sometimes.

Even so, a mad person like him had a wide perspective and could see the bigger picture beyond what was happening.

Not far away, Gu Changge was raging with fury when he heard Chu Kuangren’s words. That ‘certain crown prince’ was definitely a reference to him.

The banquet carried on after Shang Han’s departure.

Once it ended, each of the sky-prides then represented their respective orthodoxies and went into the royal treasury to choose their treasure.

…

Inside the gardens behind the royal palace.

The surrounding area was silent as only Chu Kuangren, Lan Yu, and Princess Linglong were there. None of them spoke while they took a quiet stroll through the gardens.

“Father has said that the wedding date will be up to us to decide. Since the fact that you are now the Fiancé of the Royal Azure Dynasty’s Eldest Princess can’t be changed anymore.”

Princess Linglong was the first to speak up.

“Yeah. So what’s your view about this?” Chu Kuangren asked.

“We have only known each other for a few days. Whatever happened in the secret realm was done because we had no choice. However, I have to admit that I have some feelings for you, but it’s only a little. I’m still not sure as to whether I’ve fallen for you or not.”

Princess Linglong spoke earnestly.

“It’s the same for me as well. Although our marriage agreement is a transaction, both of us are soon to be husband and wife. I will fulfill my responsibilities as best as I can.”

“Alright, so let’s put the wedding date aside for now, do you have any plans for the future?” Princess Linglong asked.

“The reason I came down from the mountains was that I wanted to gain more experience and further train myself. Besides, I want to see the world as well.”

The Firmament Star was a large world with a total of four domains. Chu Kuangren had not even finished exploring the Azure Dragon Domain, yet he already had plans to visit others.

“It’s to be expected. You are a dragon amongst men after all. There’s no way the Royal Azure Dynasty’s tiny piece of land can keep your interests for long.” Princess Linglong was not surprised.

After chatting for a while longer, both of them started to open up to each other and it pulled their relationship closer.

The next day.

Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu left the royal palace.

Meanwhile, news of him becoming the Fiancé of the Royal Azure Dynasty’s Eldest Princess had spread throughout the Capital City. Even the whole Azure Dragon Domain was shaken by the news.

“Wh… Wh… What the d*mn hell? You’re telling me that Chu Kuangren is now the Fiancé of the Royal Azure Dynasty’s Eldest Princess, while the Royal Azure Dynasty and the Black Heaven Sect have now allied?”

“It seems that these two great sage orthodoxies intend to become Chu Kuangren’s protector on his path of cultivation. By the gods, this is unprecedented news indeed.”

“The rise of Chu Kuangren’s fame and power cannot be stopped by anyone!”

“The hell, Chu Kuangren himself already has a supreme heavenly form, and if someone like him gets the Godly Essence, how hopeless will everyone be?”

“There’s only Chu Kuangren in this era and if he wishes to become Emperor in the future, there’ll be no hope for anyone else.”

While some people were shocked by the rapid rise of Chu Kuangren, others felt anxious and intimidated by the alliance between the two great sage orthodoxies.

However, some were also saddened and enraged by the news.

Such as the female cultivators from the Black Heaven Sect for instance.

“Fiancé of the Royal Azure Dynasty’s Eldest Princess? Sobs, my Elder Senior Brother!”

“My god, how many lifetimes did Princess Linglong have to spend to gather such prosperous merits. I can’t believe she can tie the knot with our Elder Senior Brother. I don’t want to accept this!”

“I don’t care, our Elder Senior Brother belongs to everyone.”

“Elder Senior Brother, I shall give you my blessings.”

“Don’t be sad my fellow sisters. Although our Elder Senior Brother will marry Princess Linglong, he will forever be our Elder Senior Brother.”

“That’s right, I still like our Elder Senior Brother. Even if he marries someone else, as long as I can secretly admire him from afar, then it’s enough for me.”

The news of Chu Kuangren’s marriage saddened the female cultivators of the Black Heaven Sect for a few days. Rumors said that even Elder Ruyan was in a sad mood.

Reportedly, someone spotted Elder Ruyan standing on a cliff overlooking the Royal Azure Dynasty with a sad expression, mumbling things like ‘It’s nice to be Princess Linglong’ or ‘My beloved didn’t appear when I’m young, but only appears when I’m old’.

…

At that time, Chu Kuangren had already left the Royal Azure Dynasty’s Capital City.

With a fairy boat that he had procured from the Royal Azure Dynasty, he randomly chose a direction and traveled toward it. Even though he was traveling aimlessly, it was quite relaxed too.

Only Chu Kuangren and Lan Yu were on the fairy boat. As for Li Xingchen, he had been ordered back to White Cloud City by his father Li Ye.

In the Era of great battles, every sky-pride would put in the effort to improve themselves. Since Li Xingchen was naturally talented, Li Ye would never allow him to simply wander around like that.

“So, my two fellow seniors, any ideas where I can go to gain more experiences?” Atop the fairy boat, Chu Kuangren spoke as he turned to face the void behind him.

He was speaking of those two. Besides the Seventh Forefather who had been secretly protecting him from the void, the Royal Azure Dynasty had also assigned a protector of their own as a sincere gesture to the alliance.

“The Firmament Star is a large world. With us watching your backs, you’re free to travel anywhere except the Ten Great Forbidden Areas,” the Seventh Forefather said casually.

The Ten Great Forbidden Areas he mentioned were the ten most dangerous places in the Firmament Star. It was rumored that even a sage might not come out alive once they went into a place like that.

Although extremely curious, Chu Kuangren was not in a hurry to die just yet.

“It is said that you killed a sage and saved everyone in the Luminous Moon Secret Realm. Maybe you can take this opportunity to visit the other orthodoxies then.” The voice of an old lady rang through the void. She was the protector sent forth by the Royal Azure Dynasty.

Chu Kuangren’s eyes lit up upon hearing her words.

Besides the Black Heaven Sect and Royal Azure Dynasty, there were still six other sage orthodoxies in the Azure Dragon Domain. Namely, they were the School of White Lotus, Five Ways Sect, Zhiyang Valley, Dharmas Sect, Sacred Lands of Serene Wisdom, and Thunder Temple. Each of which had its own respective mysterious techniques and knowledge.

Although his understanding of the Dao was extremely high, his understanding and knowledge about the art of techniques was still limited and was far worse than what he knew about the Dao. Perhaps he could take this chance to visit each of the sage orthodoxies to learn about their techniques and specialty.

“Alright, let’s go visit all these sage orthodoxies one by one. I hope they don’t treat me with too less of a welcome.”

Chu Kuangren smiled.
