A moment later.

The four entered the town.

Ye Chen walked alongside Hua Qianxue.

Following behind, Granny Rong kept her brow furrowed.

At the very back, Yu Chengguang was full of resentment!

His top-grade spiritual sword, storage ring, and the wealth and elixirs inside the storage ring had all become Ye Chen's. Thinking of how he was tricked by Ye Chen earlier made him grind his teeth in anger and his chest throb with pain!

They found a relatively clean inn.

Granny Rong entered the inn and directly wanted to book all the rooms.

The inn was originally quite full, and the shopkeeper wore a troubled expression.

But Granny Rong placed a silver note worth one thousand taels on the table, and the shopkeeper eagerly went to handle the arrangements. In no time, everything was properly settled.

Each chose a room to stay in.

Ye Chen couldn't wait to lock his door and take out the storage ring from his bosom.

He was well aware of the principle of not showing one's wealth.

Even at the peak of the Ye Family's prominence, they couldn't afford to buy a single storage ring even if they sold all their assets.

Not to mention there must be many good things inside the storage ring.

Although Hua Qianxue and the others wouldn't covet such things, Ye Chen still thought it better to be cautious.

Who says a storage ring must be worn on the finger?!

As for how to use the storage ring, Hua Qianxue had already explained to Ye Chen on the way.

Just squeeze out a drop of blood essence and smear it on the storage ring; it's very simple.

The imprint Yu Chengguang left in the storage ring was erased by Granny Rong next to Hua Qianxue.

Ye Chen bit his finger, circulated his sword yuan, and forced out a drop of crimson blood essence onto the surface of the storage ring. The blood essence was absorbed by the storage ring, and Ye Chen immediately sensed a space the size of a small room.

Inside the space.

There were many silver notes.

And some bottles and jars filled with spiritual pills and treasures.

Besides, there were more than a dozen fist-sized, glistening diamond-shaped crystals!

"Inferior-grade primordial stones!"

Ye Chen's face lit up with joy; he had used primordial stones for cultivation before and recognized them immediately.

One must know that even though the Ye Family in Qingyun City was quite wealthy, Ye Chen, as a direct descendant, had only used primordial stones twice.

It wasn't that the Ye Family couldn't afford it. A piece of inferior-grade primordial stone was less than ten thousand taels of silver; the Ye Family could grit their teeth and provide Ye Chen with primordial stones for cultivation.

However, primordial stones are something of value but rarely available in the market. Without a certain status, one can't buy them!

With a thought, all the primordial stones in the storage ring flew out and landed before him.

"One piece..."

"Two pieces..."

Thirteen pieces of inferior-grade primordial stones, counted three times back and forth!

In the room next door.

Granny Rong watched Hua Qianxue laughing, her brows deeply furrowed.

She knew why her young miss was laughing because, with her spiritual power extending, she also discovered Ye Chen counting the primordial stones...

Just a dozen or so inferior-grade primordial stones, and he's so happy!

"Young miss."

Granny Rong cautiously said, "This Ye Chen is just a ruffian from a small place, while you, young miss, are the scion of the Hua Family and the jewel of the Great Zhou Dynasty. You mustn't have too much interaction with Ye Chen.

Otherwise, it won't be good for you, young miss, nor for Ye Chen."

The smile on Hua Qianxue's face disappeared.

What's wrong with being a rural ruffian?

In just a few days, he has successively comprehended the Sword Intent of Slaughter and the Sword Intent of Gale, and even fused two Sword Intents. Can the Great Zhou Dynasty find a second rural ruffian like this?

Not one of the princes and dukes, noble heirs, or sect inheritors of the Great Zhou Dynasty can compare to Ye Chen!

In other words.

Who dares to bite me?!

This bastard Ye Chen... does dare!

Hua Qianxue's tone turned cold and said, "Granny Rong, I don't need you to tell me what to do."

Granny Rong hastily bowed her head, saying, "Young miss, I wouldn't dare."

Hua Qianxue faintly said, "Once we return to Unrivaled County, investigate the Blood Robe Tower."

Granny Rong said, "Young miss, regarding the Blood Robe Tower's matters, the patriarch has instructed that you should avoid involvement as much as possible."

Hua Qianxue coldly snorted, "They came with three assassins at the peak of the Elemental Wheel Realm last night to kill me. If I don't teach them a lesson, they might think I'm afraid!"

Upon hearing this, Granny Rong's face turned pale with a wave of fear.

Three assassins from the Blood Robe Tower at the peak of the Elemental Wheel Realm... It's a good thing her young miss is fine now; otherwise, her life wouldn't have been enough to answer to the Hua Family!

"Those bastards from the Blood Robe Tower dared to lay hands on you, miss, I won't let them off lightly!" Granny Rong said, gritting her teeth.

Hua Qianxue said, "All right, I'm tired, and need to rest for a while. Besides, don't disturb Ye Chen on the other side, or don't blame me for not considering the feelings over the years!"

Having said so much.

Granny Rong dared not overstep in the slightest, hastily saying, "Young miss, rest assured, I understand."

After Granny Rong left the room, Hua Qianxue extended her spiritual power again and couldn't help but laugh.

That guy Ye Chen was actually giggling foolishly while holding the primordial stones.

In another guest room.

Yu Chengguang's face was twisted, wishing he could immediately rush to Ye Chen's room and snatch his belongings back.

"That bastard actually possesses two kinds of Sword Intent, and his combat power is very strong. He must have unspeakable secrets on him. I'll observe for now!"

Then Yu Chengguang extended his spiritual power.

But before his spiritual power could sense the scene in Ye Chen's room, he groaned, stumbling and falling to the ground, bleeding from his seven orifices.

Just now, his spiritual power was hit by a powerful force!

......

After happily embracing the thirteen pieces of inferior-grade primordial stones for a while, Ye Chen then stored the stones back into his storage ring. He also put all the large bundles of weapons into the storage ring, leaving only the top-grade Spiritual Sword he won from Yu Chengguang in his hand!

A top-grade Spiritual Sword, valued at three million taels!

Ye Chen couldn't control himself once more, grinning like an idiot.

"Enough, stop smirking foolishly, hurry and come in, let's first imbue the spiritual sword."

Luo Qingyi's voice echoed in Ye Chen's mind.

Ye Chen hesitated a bit, and replied, "Senior, I noticed earlier that I seemed to be watched by many eyes. If I enter the Sword Tomb now, might I be discovered?"

Ye Chen's earlier behavior was undoubtedly filled with uncontrollable joy, but more so, it was to confuse those peeking eyes secretly observing him.

"The few strands of spiritual power watching you have already withdrawn. Besides, with me here, a mere Mortal Transformation old woman won't notice anything unusual."

Mortal Transformation old woman...

Ye Chen instantly associated it with Granny Rong.

He was very shocked by Granny Rong's strength, realizing she was a super powerhouse at the Mortal Transformation Realm.

What shocked him even more was Hua Qianxue's status. A strong person at the Mortal Transformation Realm was actually subservient to Hua Qianxue, speaking and acting cautiously, trembling in fear!

Ye Chen took a deep breath, no longer hesitating, he immediately entered the Sword Tomb.

Luo Qingyi was waiting for Ye Chen, and upon seeing him enter, immediately said, "A top-grade spiritual sword barely possesses real spirituality. If you don't refine it, the sword spirit won't be in harmony with your intentions. If that's the case, it's better to fight with an ordinary iron sword."

The reasoning was something Ye Chen understood.

If it's not refined, the sword spirit won't listen and might oppose you at critical times, creating problems!

Refining means making the sword spirit submit, obey your words, and be a good child, to do whatever it's told!

"Elder Qingyi, how should I refine it?" Ye Chen asked.

Luo Qingyi said, "The cultivation technique in the Nine Heavens Sword Manual can refine spiritual swords, but I can teach you a secret technique outside the Nine Heavens Sword Manual's inheritance. This secret technique works wonders on all sword spirits in the world."

Ye Chen's eyes lit up with excitement, saying, "Thank you, Elder Qingyi!"

Luo Qingyi said, "This secret technique is called the Sword Control Celestial Scripture."
