I Stayed At Home For A Century, When I Emerged I Was Invincible Chapter 80 - Coercion

Chapter 80: Coercion

Once one’s foundation was damaged, even if one broke through to the truth realm, there would be no way forward.

The Chu family’s complete inherited cultivation technique had finally appeared. It was a powerful cultivation technique that would allow one to cultivate to the Emperor realm or even the Supreme realm.

Which cultivator did not have the ambition or dream of reaching the Emperor realm?

It was not easy to break through to the Emperor realm though; talent and apt.i.tude were very important. However, if one did not work hard, who knew what one could or could not achieve?

Moreover, with Chu Yun’s aid with refining pills, there was still hope for them even if their innate talent was insufficient.

As the Chu family’s foundation had finally been discovered, the Chu family members regained hope.

They now believed that they could catch up to the other three families.

As a result, the Chu family members all fell into a frenzied period of cultivation.

Even the voices that scolded Chu Yuan became softer.

Chu Tianming could no longer be heard roaring in the ancestral residence because of Chu Yuan’s matter.

Two days after Chu Yun left the Chu family’s ancient site, she came over to Chu Xuan’s small courtyard.

“Thirteenth brother, I inherited the Chu family’s emperor-level weapon,” she said in a mysterious and low voice.

“Your luck is indeed good. You’re the person who carries the hope of the Chu family on your shoulders now.” Chu Xuan laughed.

“Thirteenth brother, I want to give you this emperor-level weapon. I don’t have any use for it and I feel that it’s very dangerous for me to hold onto it.”

Chu Yun’s face was solemn as she spoke. If others found out about the emperor-level weapon, her life would be in danger.

Chu Xuan laughed as he looked at her.

The reason why Chu Yun spoke so seriously was because she was worried that he would not accept the emperor-level weapon.

“Thirteenth brother, you must help me. I’ll leave the emperor-level weapon with you. You can’t tell anyone,” Chu Yun said.

“Alright.” Chu Xuan nodded.

Chu Yun was elated. As expected, thirteenth brother was afraid that she would be in danger and chose to accept the emperor-level weapon.

She immediately tried to take out the emperor-level weapon.

However, the emperor-level weapon in her dantian refused to budge.

She tried several methods but, in the end, she was unable to take it out. Her expression instantly took a turn for the worse.

“Thirteenth brother, I can’t take out the emperor-level weapon.”

“This means that the emperor-level weapon has completely recognized you as its master. During critical moments, it will still protect you, so just keep it.”

Chu Xuan patted her little head and smiled.

The emperor-level weapon was also imbued with Chu Xuan’s power. Not only could it help Chu Yun in her cultivation, it would also save her life during critical moments.

Given Chu Xuan’s first-level Supreme realm cultivation, no one Emperor realm cultivator could harm Chu Yun.

In addition, Chu Xuan had left a soul-chasing seal on the emperor-level weapon. With this, he would be able to use the Soul-chasing Bow to kill any enemies close to Chu Yun.

“Alright.”

Since Chu Yun failed to take out the emperor-level weapon, she returned to the ancestral residence with a disappointed expression.

After returning to the ancestral residence, she tried her best to rack her brain for a solution. However, despite her best efforts, she was still unable to take out the emperor-level weapon. As such, she had no choice but to give up.

Just as the Chu family was about to focus on their cultivation and growth, a piece of news suddenly arrived which caused the family elders to be shaken.

The sect master of Nine Swords Mountain, Song Yiming, had brought his son, Song Pang, to the Chu family to propose marriage. His son, Song Pang, wanted to marry Chu Yun.

Not only that, he had come in threatening fas.h.i.+on. He did not use friendly methods to propose this marriage; he was directly threatening the Chu family into agreeing to the marriage.

Had this occurred before the Chu family’s foundation was unearthed, the family elders might have considered whether or not to curry favor with Nine Swords Mountain.

However, after the Chu family’s foundation was unearthed, the emperor-level weapon had recognized Chu Yun as its master. How could they allow Chu Yun to marry the son of the sect master of Nine Swords Mountain?

Furthermore, the other party came menacingly and directly threatened them. The Chu family was unable to accept the other party’s behavior.

Chu Yun was the hope for the rise of the Chu family!

Given the current situation, even if Chu Yun had someone in her heart, the family elders would not agree to her marrying out.

Her future partner could only marry into the Chu family!

“What should we do?”

The elders looked at Chu Tianming with serious expressions.

“We can only ask the Qin family for help!”

Chu Tianming said with a gloomy face.

The elders were worried. Would the Qin family come to their aid?

One had to know that the current relations.h.i.+p between the Great Qin Dynasty and Nine Swords Mountain was not normal. Would they offend the sect master of Nine Swords Mountain for the sake of the Chu family?

However, at this point, there was no other way out but to ask the Qin family for help.

Chu Yun was concocting pills inside the Chu family’s ancient site, so she was unaware of what was going on outside.

Chu Xuan had already learned from the intelligence reports of the Black Moon Tower that Song Yiming had brought his son to the Chu family’s territory.

The other party had neither been hurried nor slow. By traveling openly like that, they had exerted pressure on the Chu family. The accompanying Nine Swords Mountain disciples were currently taking control of one city after another in Chu County.

Although they did not make any moves to hurt anyone, their intention was self-evident.

“They’re finally here.”

With a single thought, Chu Xuan covered the entirety of the Chu family’s territory within his domain.

He wanted to place a few more chess pieces in the Southern Region. He was very interested in the Asura Ancient Land.

The opening of the Asura Ancient Land was related to the situation in the entire Northern Zone. Many powerful factions would partic.i.p.ate in this matter.

There might even be other factions from other zones interfering.

It would be more exciting to stir up trouble on a field where many powerful factions were present.

Moreover, his actions could trigger the system’s rewards.

Nine Sword Mountain’s sect master was one of the chess pieces that Chu Xuan wanted to obtain due to the matter regarding the Great Qin’s Emperor.

Inside the Great Qin Dynasty’s imperial palace, Qin Keyun looked at the Chu family’s request for help and did not give an answer.

Qin Pingshan opened his mouth a few times, but soon closed it again each time. He could not guess what Qin Keyun was thinking.

Whether or not the Qin family helped the Chu family was all down to Qin Keyun’s decision. No one could control her.

“I have my own thoughts regarding this matter.”

Qin Keyun waved her hand, indicating for Qin Pingshan to leave.

Qin Pingshan sighed. The emperor-level aura around Qin Keyun’s body was getting stronger and stronger. She was probably going to break through to the Emperor realm soon.

After Qin Pingshan left, Qin Keyun spoke to someone hiding behind a screen in the room, “Inform Nine Swords Mountain. If Song Yiming dies, just replace the sect master and pretend that nothing happened.”

The person behind the screen was stunned.

If Song Yiming died, should he not take revenge?

How could he pretend that nothing happened?

Moreover, did the Chu family even have the ability to kill Song Yiming?

After a long while, he replied, “Yes.”

Chu County…

Song Pang said impatiently, “Father, let’s go straight to the Chu family’s ancestral residence. What if someone eats the black heart gra.s.s while we’re dawdling here?”

Song Yiming replied, “Pang’er, are you sure that girl is an alchemist?”

“I’m sure, I’m absolutely sure. Furthermore, her talent in alchemy should be quite good!” Song Pang hurriedly nodded and said.

Although his talent was lacking, he was not a brainless descendant. In order to stabilize his position in Nine Swords Mountain, he had thought of many methods and made every effort to improve.

He wanted to obtain the position of sect master, rather than the safe position of an elder. To achieve that, he had been working hard.

Song Pang knew that he was somewhat crippled in terms of cultivation. If he wanted to secure his position, his first choice would be to marry an excellent Dao partner.

What did Nine Swords Mountain lack the most?

Alchemists!

Due to this, he had traveled to Heavenly Cauldron Mountain more than once, hoping to hook up with a female disciple.

However, his hopes were dashed eac time. The female disciples of Heavenly Cauldron Mountain all looked at him as if he were a cripple. No matter how much he tried to sweet-talk them, he could not coax them into becoming his Dao partner.

It was precisely because he spent too much time with the disciples of Heavenly Cauldron Mountain that, when he chanced upon Chu Yun, he sensed a familiar faint pill fragrance lingering around her body.

He also found out that Chu Yun had once purchased spirit herbs, which further confirmed his guess that she was an alchemist.

Therefore, the first thing he wanted to do was to marry Chu Yun!

Since he could not marry a disciple of Heavenly Cauldron Mountain, he would take the easier route of marrying a daughter of the Chu family.

With the black heart gra.s.s and the beauty in his hands, his father’s position as the sect master of Nine Swords Mountain would only become more and more stable in the future.

Later on, he would be able to vie for the position of sect master.

In the end, his father actually took his time traveling to the Chu family’s ancestral residence, which worried him to no end. Even if he married Chu Yun in the end, without the black heart gra.s.s, he would not be able to fix his limited talent and apt.i.tude, and thus would not be able to vie for the position of sect master.
