124: Jiang Beixuan falls into demonic possession; true love is exchanged for true affection.

Jiang Yunfan defeated Chen Nan, proving his worthiness for Ji Yao with his strength, and there were no longer any dissenting voices.

The grand ceremony concluded.

Sect Master kept Jiang Yunfan and Ji Yao behind.

"Jiang Yunfan, although you are not a Saint Body, your Aptitude is no less than Ji Yao's. I can make an exception and confer you as a Saint."

"Sect Master, let's not! It's enough for Ji Yao alone to be the Saintess. If she becomes the Sect Master in the future, I will definitely assist her in strengthening Lingxiao Sect, making it a Holy Land."

Strengthening Lingxiao Sect was Sect Master's greatest wish, and Jiang Yunfan's words resonated deeply with him.

Jiang Yunfan and Ji Yao's potential was the greatest Lingxiao Sect had ever seen, and he placed high hopes on them.

"Sect Master, if there's nothing else, we'll head back first."

Jiang Yunfan and Ji Yao left Lingxiao Peak.

When he saw Jiang Yurou and Li Qingchen lingering reluctantly, Jiang Yunfan instantly appeared before them.

"Brother."

Jiang Yurou looked flustered.

Jiang Yunfan said, "What are you panicking for? I don't eat people."

He looked at Li Qingchen, "You like my sister."

Li Qingchen didn't hesitate, "Yes."

Jiang Yunfan showed approval, "Once your Cultivation Level breaks through to the Dharma Idol Realm, I will agree to marry Yu Rou to you."

Li Qingchen's expression brightened, and he promised, "I will definitely break through to the Dharma Idol Realm within fifty years to marry Yu Rou."

He looked at Jiang Yurou, "Yu Rou, wait for me."

Jiang Yurou said, "I will wait for you to marry me."

Li Qingchen transformed into a sword light and departed.

Jiang Yurou was full of reluctance.

Jiang Yunfan said, "If two hearts are meant to be, then why cling to every moment? Work hard on your Cultivation! Your potential is even greater than Li Qingchen's. If you neglect your Cultivation for love, even if Li Qingchen breaks through to the Dharma Idol Realm, I will not marry you to him."

Jiang Yurou said, "Big Brother, don't worry, I will never neglect my Cultivation."

After returning to Linglong Peak, Jiang Yunfan entered closed-door Cultivation.

He hadn't had a proper session of closed-door Cultivation yet.

During this session, he planned to diligently Cultivate those supreme Emperor Scriptures to enhance his strength.

He began to Cultivate the Heaven Swallowing Demonic Art.

Although this was a Demonic Path Cultivation Technique, he didn't care in the slightest. As long as it made him stronger, he didn't mind if it was an evil Cultivation Technique or a Demonic Technique.

He used his divine aperture to enter the state of unity between heaven and man.

His entire being entered a profound and ethereal state.

His Comprehension Ability surged.

In this state, Jiang Yunfan was confident that his Comprehension Ability was no weaker than Lu Yun's Heaven-Defying Comprehension Ability.

Chiyang Peak.

Jiang Beixuan was greatly stimulated; after returning, he immediately entered closed-door Cultivation.

However, Jiang Yunfan's Breakthrough to the Heaven and Man Realm became a Heart Demon in his heart. Even being defeated by Jiang Yunfan with a flick of a finger hadn't caused him to develop a Heart Demon.

Jiang Yunfan's Breakthrough to the Heaven and Man Realm completely broke his spirit.

Compared to Jiang Yunfan, he was a complete waste, utterly defeated. He had no hope of ever winning against him in this life, filling him with despair.

"Jiang Yunfan, I will kill you, kill you."

Heart Demons proliferated, and Jiang Beixuan suffered Qi Deviation.

The Heart Demons attracted a Heavenly Demon.

The Heavenly Demon was precisely what the Heavenly Demon Sect Saint Son, No Heaven, transformed into after abandoning his Physical Body when he became a demon.

The Heavenly Demon entered Jiang Beixuan's body, merging with his Heart Demon. His mind was instantly occupied by the Heavenly Demon, turning him into a demon.

He opened his eyes, and a red light flashed within them.

He smiled evilly, his gaze extremely cold.

"Jiang Yunfan, I have become a demon. Sooner or later, I will surpass you, kill you, and everything you have will belong to me."

"[Today's Intelligence (red): Jiang Beixuan suffered Qi Deviation during Cultivation, attracting a Heavenly Demon and completely falling into the Demonic Path.]"

Jiang Yunfan, who was Cultivating, was stunned to receive this intelligence.

Jiang Beixuan actually became a demon.

Where did this Heavenly Demon come from? Could it be that the Demon Race invaded Nine Provinces?

"System, give me information on the Heavenly Demon."

"[Today's Intelligence (red): The Heavenly Demon was formed from the Heavenly Demon Sect Saint Son No Heaven after he became a demon and abandoned his Physical Body. It is formless and intangible, and was attracted by Jiang Beixuan's Heart Demon.]"

"So it was him."

Jiang Yunfan knew that No Heaven had transformed into a Heavenly Demon after his death, but he didn't expect him to possess Jiang Beixuan. Wouldn't that make Jiang Beixuan No Heaven?

No matter who he is, if he dares to provoke me, he must die.

He wouldn't consider their brotherhood.

If Jiang Beixuan's strength were above his, he believed Jiang Beixuan would definitely kill him without hesitation... Chen Family.

After Chen Nan returned empty-handed, his father reprimanded him, "Useless! You can't even defeat a Sect Disciple."

Chen Nan was extremely ashamed. He was, after all, one of the top Prodigies of the Chen Family, and even across the entire Eastern Province, he was a notable existence, yet he was defeated by an unknown person.

It wasn't just his face he lost, but the Chen Family's as well.

"Father, I will definitely defeat that person and wash away this disgrace."

Chen Donglai's face was cold, "No need. I will send someone to kill him. After he dies, you can go to Lingxiao Sect to propose marriage. You must marry Ji Yao no matter what."

Chen Nan felt extremely wronged. Why didn't his father believe he could kill Jiang Yunfan?

Jiang Yunfan, I must kill you.

Only by killing Jiang Yunfan could he prove himself and make his father look at him with new eyes.

Nine Provinces Auction House.

"Lu Yun, congratulations on breaking through to the Yin-Yang Realm."

Shang Yuqing congratulated Lu Yun, praising him without reservation, "To break through to the Yin-Yang Realm at such a young age, even in the Central Province, you would be one of the top Prodigies."

Lu Yun said, "I learned from ancient texts that the Central Province is the center of Nine Provinces, with countless Prodigies, numerous powerful experts, and abundant resources. Is that true?"

Shang Yuqing said, "Of course it's true. In this era, the Central Province has even produced two peerless Prodigies with the Potential of a Great Emperor of a Great Emperor, who are incredibly formidable."

"But I believe you can catch up to them, and even surpass them."

Lu Yun had always wondered why Shang Yuqing favored him. In terms of Cultivation Level, he was inferior to his big brother, and in terms of appearance, he was also inferior to his big brother.

"Yuqing, why do you favor me?"

"You finally asked."

Shang Yuqing knew Lu Yun was perplexed, which was why he was so reserved and polite with her, preventing them from truly connecting. She had been waiting for Lu Yun to ask her himself.

"From the first moment I saw you, I could tell you carried immense Luck. Although you don't have a powerful Physique, you possess Heaven-Defying Luck. This kind of Luck can only be found in a Child of Destiny of an era, which is why I favor you. I am willing to accompany you as you grow and witness you become a peerless expert."

"I have immense Luck? You couldn't have mistaken it, could you!"

"I Cultivated a Divine Ability, the 'Luck Gazing Art,' which can discern others' Luck. You possess the strongest red Luck, and it has even formed a Luck Canopy. This is the Luck that only a Child of Destiny possesses. How could I be mistaken?"

So that's how it is.

Lu Yun's doubts were finally resolved, and he no longer held any reservations towards Shang Yuqing.

He proactively took Shang Yuqing's hand, "I will never disappoint you. I will definitely become a peerless expert."

Shang Yuqing smiled brightly. Jiang Yunfan's words were right: true feelings beget true love. Only genuine sincerity could move Lu Yun.
