Chapter 136: The Reincarnated Villain Makes The Heroines Tearfully Beg For Forgiveness
(Within the Light Beam of Resurrection)
Lin Tian and Xiao Chan's silhouette reappeared within the light beam.
Being chased for three years, the duo decided to leave the Great Xuan Empire and enter the Sword Spirit Empire, one of the three great empires.
They soon arrived at Sword Spirit City, the capital of the Sword Spirit Empire.
Since entering the Sword Spirit Empire's territory, the cultivators chasing after the duo have decreased dramatically. As a result, they concluded that the ones chasing them were from the Great Xuan Empire.
The three Great Empires had a rather general relationship with each other.
Even the prominent members of the Great Xuan Empire had to act carefully within the Sword Spirit Empire.
Thus, the duo decided to travel to the most prosperous place they could find within the Sword Spirit Empire.
And at last, they arrived at this Sword Spirit City.
The Sword Spirit City was the capital city of the Sword Spirit Empire.
At a glance, it was obvious how vast it was.
In the heart of this colossal city, a tall tower was visible, bursting with Spiritual Qi.
The Spiritual Qi circled the city like a legendary dragon winding through the waves.
...
(On the Lingxuan Continent)
"Spiritual Qi circling like a legendary dragon winding through the waves. This Spiritual Qi of the ancient era wasn't at all exaggerated."
"How else could everyone be able to cultivate? Even I cannot help but envy this abundance of Spiritual Qi."
"If I lived in such a place abundant of Spiritual Qi, I could have already made a breakthrough to the Sage Realm."
"What exactly happened in the ancient era to cause the Spiritual Qi on the Lingxuan Continent to suddenly deplete and become scarce?"
As many cultivators gazed upon the bursting Spiritual Qi inside the Light Beam of Resurrection, their mouths watered with envy.
The Spiritual Qi was not that dense even in those Spiritual veins on the Lingxuan continent.
In many sects, even through spiritual formations, they could only make Spiritual Qi thicker in their sect's core area by a slight margin.
It couldn't compare to ancient times within the Light Beam of Resurrection.
There was so much Spiritual Qi then that it seemed like a ruse.
By bathing in such Spiritual Qi every day, even a mortal incapable of cultivating would cleanse his body and marrow and embark on the path of cultivation.
In the beginning, many people did not believe Su Qingyi's claims that once the primordial god was resurrected, he could forcefully change the physiques of billions of creatures on the Lingxuan Continent so that they could cultivate.
However, as they stared at the Light Beam of Resurrection, they became convinced.
The Primordial God could increase the number of cultivators on the Lingxuan Continent dozens of times if he restored the Spiritual Qi to half of what it was in ancient times.
...
"What exactly happened in ancient times?"
Long Feijian and the others were intrigued by this question.
Only a few ancient goddesses, such as Su Qingyi, could answer this.
As the ancient goddesses remained silent, Long Feijian and the others did not dare ask.
They could only retrace their gaze to the Light Beam of Resurrection in front of them.
...
There was a price for entering the Sword Spirit City.
The more days you stay inside, the more spirit stones you need to give.
While fleeing this way, Lin Tian fished many spirit stones from the cultivators chasing after them.
If not, they would not even qualify to live in Sword Spirit City.
Lin Tian immediately handed over enough spirit stones for them to qualify for one year's stay in Sword Spirit City.
Then Lin Tian and Xiao Chan entered the Sword Spirit City, each grabbing a token.
This token allowed them to access a mansion within the Sword Spirit City, which would be their home for the next year.
Before the two could find their new home, several huge carriages appeared above the Sword Spirit City.
In the carriage sat several women wearing colorful robes and veils on their faces, who looked extremely beautiful.
"Look, the one in the first carriage must be the saintess of the Hundred Flowers Sect, right?"
"The tall and elegant lady behind is the princess of our Sword Spirit Empire, also known as the first beauty of Sword Spirit City."
"I heard these holy maidens and princesses would meet with the holy sons of various sects at the Qixia Pavilion. If we rush to the Qixia Pavilion, we might still be able to see their gorgeous looks."
The eyes of many cultivators around Lin Tian and Xiao Chan lit up as they hurriedly ran toward a certain destination in the city.
Seeing this, Xiao Chan had a worried look on her face.
Lin Tian slapped her shoulder before she could say anything.
"Xiao Chan, go back first. I'll go check whether or not these saintess and princesses are beautiful... If they are beautiful, they will be your mistresses. Let's later take them to eat hot pot together."
Lin Tian's figure soon vanished in the direction of the rushing cultivators as Xiao Chan stared helplessly.
Xiao Chan was left on her own.
She froze for a moment before turning around and searching for their home with a dejected expression.
...
(On the Lingxuan Continent)
Seeing Xiao Chan's aggrieved face within the light beam of resurrection, the ancient goddesses standing behind Su Qingyi could not help but comfort her: "Sister Qingyi, although you have a soft spot for Tai Chu, if God Tai Chu keeps being this irresponsible, it is better for sister to be cautious."
The ancient goddesses were dissatisfied with Lin Tian's behavior within the light beam of resurrection.
Nevertheless, Su Qingyi couldn't help but shake her head in response to their words.
Her eyes also turned slightly red. Staring at the light beam of resurrection in front of her, she said softly: "You don't get it. Despite his impulsive personality, the young master is more reliable than anyone else... This is also my happiest day. For countless years, I have dreamed of this day many times."
There was also a curious look in the eyes of the ancient goddesses when they heard Su Qingyi say this.
Lin Tian left Qingyi alone to see those saintesses and princesses, as they could see in the light beam of resurrection.
Nevertheless, Su Qingyi responded this way.
There was no doubt that something else had happened afterward.
...
(Within the Light Beam of Resurrection)
It didn't take long for Xiao Chan to find the mansion that was allotted to them.
In comparison to ordinary mansions, it was quite different.
Sword Spirit City contained mansions that were individually cut using spatial laws by Sage Realm experts.
From the outside, the mansion looked small and rather ordinary, but upon entering, the interior area was quite large, and it even had its garden.
Naturally, Xiao Chan was not interested in any of this.
At this moment, only two things seemed to matter most to her.
The first was cultivation, and the second was her young master Lin Tian.
After seeing her young master leave, Xiao Chan had no desire to cultivate.
She sat on the stone steps at the mansion's entrance with her hands on her chin, waiting for Lin Tian to return.
Her wait lasted several hours.
Late at night, Lin Tian's figure was finally visible in the distance.
As soon as Xiao Chan saw Lin Tian, the little dissatisfaction in her heart dissipated, and she greeted him with a smile. "Young Master, are those Saintess and Princesses beautiful?"
It would have been better if she hadn't mentioned this.
Lin Tian looked deeply remorseful as soon as she mentioned this.
"They are nothing but farts. Xiao Chan, it is no wonder these Saintesses and Princesses cover their faces with veils. Once the veil is removed, they look like dinosaurs... Oh, you don't know what a dinosaur is, do you? Anyway, they are not attractive at all."
Lin Tian and Xiao Chan walked into the mansion as he muttered how disappointing the looks of those saintesses and princesses were.
As Xiao Chan was distracted, Lin Tian flipped his palm, took out a round object, and placed it on the table. He lit a few more candles and inserted them on top.
"Xiao Chan, today is your birthday, isn't it? I wish you a happy birthday." Lin Tian said, gazing at Xiao Chan with a smile.
A surprised look spread across Xiao Chan's face when she saw Lin Tian.
She thought Lin Tian had long forgotten about her birthday.
But to her surprise, her young master had always remembered it in his heart.
Furthermore, from what was in front of her, she could see that her young master had not planned to see those saintess and princesses during the day. Instead, he had prepared them.
Xiao Chan stared at those candles, holding back her surprise.
Seeing the round cake under the candles, she curiously asked: "Young Master, what is this thing? Why do you have to light candles to celebrate your birthday?"
With a chuckle, Lin Tian said, "You don't get it. This is a custom in my hometown to celebrate birthdays by lighting candles on the cake. Make a wish before the candles go out, and then blow them. Your wish will come true... Do not delay. Come and try it."
Although these things were strange to her, Xiao Chan complied.
It was obvious that she had grown used to her young master pulling out these strange things from time to time.
With her heart full of joy, she stood before the cake, closed her eyes, and began to make a wish.
Before she could complete her wish, Lin Tian's voice reverberated in her ears: “Xiao Chan, your wish should be short, not so long. If you continue this, the candle will go out."
When Xiao Chan opened her eyes, nearly all the candles were burned.
At Lin Tian's urging, Xiao Chan puffed her cheeks and blew the candles one by one.
Then Lin Tian took Xiao Chan to the garden in the back.
He prepared many strange-looking playthings, such as a roller coaster, and took Xiao Chan along. They had fun all night.
At dawn, the sun shone on the duo, who were bursting with joy.
