Eternal Sovereign

"Eh? So it turns out that little brother Yi is also here. " Du Ru's delicate gaze turned and revealed a surprised expression when she saw Chen Yi.

Although not many people had seen Chen Yi in the town, Du Rujiao was clearly not one of them.

As disciples of the three big families of the town, Du Rujiao and Chen Liangliang had interacted a lot and naturally met Chen Yi before.

It was true that the three families were at odds with each other now and then, but the small town was still too small. Facing the forces in other places, the three families were too weak to do anything, so they sometimes joined forces.

Therefore, while the juniors of the three great families were fighting and bickering with each other, they would occasionally sit down calmly and say a few words, drinking a few cups of tea and chatting with each other.

Du Rujiao came to the Chen family and was invited by Chen Liangliang. That was when Du Rujiao saw Chen Yi.

A few years had passed, but Chen Yi had yet to reach that puberty where he changed greatly in a single day. Compared to a few years ago, the change wasn't that great, so Du Ru naturally recognized Chen Yi at a glance.

After recognizing Chen Yi, Du Rujiao's interest was piqued. The three great families had done their best to insert people into each other's families. While these people might not be able to reach a high position, they could still obtain general information.

The news of Chen Yi's physical ailment had already been cured and had soared to the middle stage of the Invigorated Meridian Realm as soon as he broke through, but it had already spread throughout the Du Family and the Zhang Family. Many young disciples scoffed at it.

Even if he had, he wouldn't be able to soar to the middle stage of the Invigorated Meridian Realm in an instant.

Du Rujiao was suspicious of this as well, and she really wanted to know what was going on with Chen Yi's body.

Unfortunately, the current relationship between Du Rujiao and Chen Liangliang had reached a low point. Without Chen Liangliang's invitation, Du Rujiao would not be able to come here.

Now that she saw Chen Yi outside, how could Du Rujiao not be happy. She rolled her eyes and let out a mischievous laugh. The hand holding the whip could not help but sway a little.

When Chen Yi saw Du Ru Jiao, his eyes narrowed.

In Du Rujiao's right ear, he saw a faint orange glow.

A new Orange Rank red packet had appeared on Du Rujiao's right earring!

Chen Yi had known that the system would release new red packets from time to time, but he didn't expect it to be this fast. Before, the entire town only had an Orange Rank red packet, but now, another Orange Rank red packet had appeared before the red packet had even been picked up from the sword hilt.

It was obviously a good thing for another Orange Rank red packet to appear. This meant that Chen Yi's chances of obtaining another good item greatly increased.

However, the problem was that the Orange Rank red packet was attached to Du Ru's right earring.

How could he open his mouth to ask Du Rujiao to take off her right earring for him?

But at this moment, Chen Yi suddenly felt a wave of threat. He subconsciously dodged, and a black whip whacked the ground where he was standing before, causing cracks to appear on the ground.

"Eh? You actually managed to dodge it? " Du Ru was slightly surprised. Even though she was not a small circle cultivator, she was still at the Great Circle of Invigorated Meridian Stage with seven meridians open. Even if this whip did not have much strength, it was still incomparable to an ordinary martial artist at the Invigorated Meridian Realm.

Du Rujiao was now somewhat convinced that Chen Yi had broken through to the Invigorated Meridian Realm.

Being also in the Invigorated Meridian Realm, unless one made a move, it would be very difficult for one to be able to see through the martial arts cultivation of the Invigorated Meridian Realm like a Heavenly Axis Realm expert.

"Du Rujiao! What are you doing! " Contrary to Du Rujiao's surprise, Chen Yi was extremely vexed at Du Rujiao's sudden action of whipping.

Du Rujiao said in an unexcited tone, "Little brother Yi, it seems like you've really recovered. Take another whip from me!"

This time, Du Rujiao used a bit more strength. A normal Invigorated Meridian Realm martial artist would not be able to withstand this whip. If they were not careful, they would be severely injured by this whip.

The speed of this whip was extremely quick. As far as Chen Yi was concerned, it was a flash of black light, and the black whip had already arrived in front of him.

Chen Yi was about to use the first stage of [Burning Demon Body] to resist when he saw Chen Xu appear in front of Chen Yi in a flash and grab onto Du Rujiao's whip.

Chen Xu said with a dark face, "Miss Du, this is my place. You are welcome to buy weapons, but not to fight."

Chen Yi sold the Green Scaled Stone to Linglong Shop. How could it be easy for Du Rujiao to hurt Chen Yi? If he pissed Chen Yi off and was prepared to go back on his word and not sell the Green Scaled Stone to Linglong Shop, he would suffer a huge loss.

It was one thing if he didn't obtain it, but if he did, it would be too much of a pain to lose it.

Du Ru's emotions were immediately extinguished by Chen Xu as she curled her lips, "Since Boss Xu has spoken, this junior naturally won't cause any more trouble."

Du Rujiao was not stupid. Right now, she was in Chen Xu's territory, and offending Chen Xu was not a good thing. Not mentioning that Chen Xu was a Heavenly Axis Realm expert, just her request to Chen Xu today was enough for Du Rujiao to not offend Chen Xu too much.

Seeing Du Ruyu withdraw her hand, Chen Xu let out a sigh of relief. Although he was a Heavenly Axis Realm expert, he was only average in the Heavenly Axis Realm. After all, he had put more effort into forging weapons.

Ordinary members of the Chen, Zhang, and Du Families might fear him, but some of the direct descendants, like Du Ru, Jiao, and the others, would not fear him too much. If they did not give him face, he would be helpless.

It was true that he was an artificer, but the three clans had already purchased enough weapons and were about to reach the saturation point. As of now, the three clans bought very few weapons every year, so their attitude towards him was no longer as important as it was at the start.

Right now, the three great clans were even more lacking in third-grade Divine Weapons, which were only high-grade Mortal level Divine Weapons.

Du Ru smiled daintily, "Boss Xu, not long after this junior has met a direct disciple of the Mysterious Shadows Sect and will be selecting a disciple from our small town. This junior here is planning on having a good selection of a godly weapon as a present today. How about Boss Xu introduces this junior to a few good godly weapons?"

"The direct disciple of the Mysterious Shadows Sect?" Chen Xu was shocked, but soon he frowned.

In Jing Prefecture, many sects were suppressed by the imperial government, but no matter how they were suppressed, to normal powers, a sect was still a huge existence.

The Mysterious Shadows Sect is a second-rate sect in the Cloud Mist Country, and there are at least a dozen Xiantian experts in the sect." The Mysterious Shadow Sect is a second-rate sect in the Cloud Mist County, and there are at least a dozen Xiantian experts in the sect.

Chen Xu smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Du is really making things difficult for me. How could a senior direct disciple like her be interested in my broken divine weapon?"

Du Ru covered her mouth and laughed, "Boss Xu is too modest. While Boss Xu is still lacking in the forging of high-grade Mortal level godly weapons, Boss Xu's forging skills are not any worse than those of those third or fourth level blacksmiths."

It just so happens that the direct disciple I know is not that old and is only at the Small Revolving Core realm, which is at least one or two years away from breaking through to the Heavenly Axis Realm. During this time, if I can obtain a medium-grade human-step divine weapon or high-grade quasi-human-step divine weapon of decent quality, it would actually be able to increase my strength by quite a lot.

"So it's like that." Chen Xu heaved a sigh of relief, then felt a little satisfied.

In terms of medium-grade human-step divine weapons, he believed that they were not much weaker than those high grade weapons. Those high grade weapons could not even be compared to high-grade human-step divine weapons.

Chen Xu said, "If that's the case, then Miss Du can choose from here. I hope Miss Du can choose a divine weapon that will satisfy her."
