Sid the Big Daddy

“Because you are handsome.”

When Wang Yangzi said this.

Chen Xia knew that this was indeed a reason that was hard to refuse, but he still shook his head to refuse.

Wang Yangzi's eyebrows drooped as he thought about finding another reason. He glanced at Chen Xia and discussed.

“If you are willing to go, I can teach you alchemy.”

“I don't want to learn,” Chen Xia rejected without even thinking.

Wang Yangzi put his hand on the sword, his face began to look puzzled, and asked.

“Aren't you an alchemist? Why don't you want to learn alchemy?"

“I don't need it,” Chen Xia told the truth.

His alchemy was all about the word “destiny”. He rarely needed any alchemical techniques. If he really learned them, it would be disrespectful to his own luck.

Wang Yangzi's eyebrows furrowed deeper. He tapped the scabbard lightly with his hand on the scabbard twice, and tentatively asked again.

“I heard that you are also a decent sword cultivator. I happen to have some skills in the way of the sword. If you are willing to go, I can teach you sword practice.”

Chen Xia glanced at Wang Yangzi, “I don't need you to teach me, nor do I want to go. I have never learned any swordsmanship.”

“Then what about the rumors from the outside world that you are a decent sword cultivator?” Wang Yangzi felt puzzled with a raised eyebrow.

“Maybe it's because I have a few more flying swords,” Chen Xia nodded and gave his own answer.

“Two life-bound flying swords, or three?” Wang Yangzi asked curiously. He didn't hear too much about Chen Xia's rumors, so he didn't know that Chen Xia actually had a flying sword tower.

Chen Xia still nodded without explaining much, “About that much.”

“Hehe.” Wang Yangzi chuckled lightly. The corners of his mouth raised a slightly confident smile as he continued,

“I'm also very accomplished with multiple flying swords. Among the sword cultivators in the realm, I probably have the most flying swords - slightly more than two or three. A total of eight flying swords.”

This was his proudest asset. With eight life-bound flying swords combined, it was almost invincible among peers.

Not to mention each flying sword also had its own life-bound supernatural powers, which became even more powerful when matched with each other.

“Well, that’s quite a lot.” Chen Xia nodded plainly, praising Wang Yangzi.

But how to put it?

Wang Yangzi still felt something was wrong. Chen Xia's tone was like a rich man praising a beggar.

He frowned, feeling that something was wrong, and asked Chen Xia for confirmation,

“Do you know who I am?”

Chen Xia recalled and said, “Wang Yangzi.”

Wang Yangzi nodded. With his hand resting on the hilt of his first flying sword, he asked again, “Do you know my identity?”

“If you keep blabbering, I’m going to close the door,” Chen Xia said a little impatiently.

“No, I am a top-grade grand alchemist, a quasi-sage sword cultivator,” Wang Yangzi quickly added, and then persuaded Chen Xia again.

“Don't feel pressured. I never force others with power. For now, I'm inviting you to participate in the Great Death Realm’s battle. It's up to your own free will. I'm just putting out my own conditions.”

Chen Xia put down his hoe, “First tell me what this Great Death Realm is.”

Wang Yangzi explained, “The Great Death Realm is a star realm that has completely died. Its vastness is almost equal to ten realms. Within it, there are even remains of great emperors.”

“The reason for the battle in the Great Death Realm is that every 5,000 years, the Great Death Realm will expel death spirit qi outwards. At this time, cultivators can take advantage of the opportunity to enter.”

“There are also many great opportunities within the Great Death Realm. As far as I know, there was a person from the Immortal Realm who returned from the Great Death Realm and went straight to the quasi-emperor realm after, making him invincible among peers.”

Chen Xia frowned as he noticed the two words Immortal Realm and directly asked,

“Is it the Immortal Realm where the Fuyao Immortal Sect is located?”

“I have some impression of the Fuyao Immortal Sect. It seems to have come in the first three Great Death Realm battles, but didn’t get any good harvests. And it even lost several geniuses. So no one came after that,” Wang Yangzi quickly replied.

Chen Xia nodded and asked again, “What about the Ninth Mountain of the Immortal Realm?”

This was where Huang Qingyue went.

Wang Yangzi nodded with a smile. “As for the nine mountains of the Immortal Realm, I am very familiar with them. They are an old opponent of the realm.”

“The Ninth Mountain also came last time. With many geniuses and good harvests, they will most likely come again this time.”

He glanced at Chen Xia with a chuckle and asked again, “What’s wrong? Do you know the Ninth Mountain?”

“More or less,” Chen Xia nodded with knitted brows. If it was really as Wang Yangzi said, then he would really go to the Great Death Realm battle.

But there was still some apprehension in his heart. After all, several thousand years had passed and it was hard to guarantee that Xu Zhen and Huang Qingyue were still the same as before.

After all, people change, possibly drastically.

What if they really changed?

What should he do?

Greet them and then go back to each home?

It didn't seem unreasonable either.

Although Chen Xia had lingering affections, he didn't force it. If they really didn't get along after thousands of years, then so be it.

He could only wish them well.

Then there was another problem. What if he met the unrecognizable Xu Zhen and Huang Qingyue in the Immortal Realm and ended up fighting them?

Should he really fight?

He looked at Wang Yangzi again and asked, “If I can’t win, can I flee?”

“Feel free to flee,” Wang Yangzi laughed. “Self-preservation comes first. Don't hesitate. As long as you don't harm others, I won't say anything to you.”

“When do we go?” he asked again.

“Still early, it’s an event 300 years later. The candidates for the Great Death Realm battle are still being selected right now. You are the best candidate as a grand alchemy master. As for other Heaven Patching Realm cultivators, there will likely be more geniuses participating.”

Wang Yangzi replied in one breath. His fingers tapped lightly on the scabbard as he smiled again,

“If you really go to the Great Death Realm, battles will definitely be unavoidable, because it's about making a name for the realm and indirectly determining the status of the realm among the various realms in the future.”

“You don't have to fight much. As a grand alchemy master, just focus on alchemy. But it’s definitely impossible to say you won’t fight at all, so you still need to prepare for it.”

Chen Xia nodded. He was already extremely familiar with fighting and battles, so it was not a problem.

Wang Yangzi had nothing more to say. He looked around the hut and suddenly said,

“You should still visit Triumphant Mountain when you have time. Although this sect is only middle-ranked in the realm, it is very extraordinary, probably related to an old monster from ancient times.”

“It looks like the Triumphant Mountain shouldn't have any intention of harming you for now. If you go for a visit, you will probably be able to figure out what that old monster is thinking.”

Chen Xia frowned, “If there really is danger, wouldn't going be like a lamb entering a tiger’s mouth?”

“Don’t worry,” Wang Yangzi’s face burst into a bright smile. His dragon-like eyebrows raised and his fingers tapped the scabbard confidently,

“I’ve got you covered!”

Chen Xia frowned again. What’s this?

Finding a big daddy?
