Chapter 1038: Chapter 1038: The Hilarious Betrothal Gift (Second Update)

"What about Mo Tunyu? How do you think he will retaliate against me?"

Zhang Bin pondered as he spoke.

"Even if Mo Tunyu has regenerated his body, it will take a longer time for him to regain full strength because he’s lost so much soul energy. However, the Demon Sect’s revenge is even more terrifying. He won’t deal with you personally. He’ll get the remnants of the Demon Sect to target you, entice you, and demonize you," said the Kunlun Elder.

"Damn, my troubles really aren’t few," Zhang Bin said a bit gloomily. "What kind of luck am I having?"

"This is a trial from the heavens for you, as well as an opportunity. If you can completely wipe them out, you’ll certainly gain more virtue, and then you can cultivate to become the Virtuous Great One. In the future, when you ascend to the Immortal Realm, you could also be a high official," the Kunlun Elder said with a smile.

"The Demon Sect might still be dealt with. But You Jiuxuan, on the other hand, is not so easy to handle."

Zhang Bin mumbled to himself.

If the Demon Sect targets him, there are always traces to be found, and perhaps he could find Mowan and Mo Tunyu through these clues.

However, if You Jiuxuan, who is secretly hidden and cultivating, comes for revenge after fully recovering, then it will be exceedingly difficult to find him.

It would all depend on luck.

The three companions also furrowed their brows; they were clever and thought the same as Zhang Bin.

The Kunlun Elder also nodded slightly.

In just ten years, You Jiuxuan will return to peak strength and be invincible. Zhang Bin will be in danger.

However, Zhang Bin soon thought of a plan, and a wicked smile appeared on his face as he turned his gaze to the Kunlun Elder’s face and said, "Elder, to deal with You Jiuxuan, we will still need your help."

"Rely on me? No, no, no, I cannot deal with him. Ten years from now, he will still be much stronger than me," the Kunlun Elder shook his head like a rattle, "You should ask your Taiqing Sect’s superiors for help."

"If my Taiqing Sect really had someone in the Ascension Realm, would I be worried at all?"

Zhang Bin grumbled internally but said with a mischievous smile, "Kunlun Elder, you can’t shirk responsibility. Yun Feiyang is your disciple from Kunlun, he’s your grandson, isn’t he? If I hadn’t saved him, he would be dead by now. Moreover, he refined the soul of You Batian, You Jiuxuan’s son, pretended to be him and obtained many secrets. It was Yun Feiyang who plotted against You Jiuxuan, so You Jiuxuan will certainly seek revenge on him too. How can you ignore that?"

Yun Feiyang indeed was the grandson of the Kunlun Elder.

The Kunlun Elder’s surname was Yun, and he had nine sons.

So naturally, he had many grandsons, nearly a hundred.

Yun Feiyang was just one of those nearly a hundred grandsons.

"Uh... you created your own mess, solve it yourself."

The Kunlun Elder rubbed his forehead, looking very frustrated.

"Elder, we will definitely work hard on our cultivation, strive to reach the Ascension Realm within ten years, and then deal with You Jiuxuan," Zhang Bin said. "But if we don’t reach the Ascension Realm in ten years, then we will need your help."

"What do you mean ’if you don’t reach the Ascension Realm’? You absolutely cannot reach the Ascension Realm; it’s barely possible to reach the Nascent Soul Realm," the Kunlun Elder said sternly, "Are you planning this in advance just to get me to clean up your mess?"

"It’s not just cleaning up my mess; it’s also cleaning up for Yun Feiyang,"

Zhang Bin said with an evil smile.

"You... you’re going to make me die of frustration," the Kunlun Elder said, extremely exasperated, "Ten years later, You Jiuxuan will be much stronger than he is in his ghost state because he’ll have a body. I’m really not likely to be his match. If I run into him, my only ability would be to run for my life."

"Elder, you can do it. If you break through to the Ascension Realm Middle Stage, you should be able to resist him. If we arrange some more experts, eliminating You Jiuxuan wouldn’t be too difficult," Zhang Bin said.

"You say it so easily. Breaking through to the Ascension Realm Middle Stage, is it that simple?" the Kunlun Elder said, "I’ve been stuck at this bottleneck for two thousand years and haven’t been able to break through."

"Is it because the cultivation technique isn’t perfect?"

Zhang Bin asked curiously.

In his Space Ring, there were two Star Steles combined. If given to the Kunlun Elder, maybe it could perfect an imperfect cultivation technique.

"It’s not the cultivation technique; all techniques up to the Ascension Realm Great Perfection are complete," the Kunlun Elder said. "It’s a matter of aptitude and opportunity. My opportunities are small, aptitude insufficient, breaking through is very hard. Even with immense virtue now, breaking through is still tough, not to mention in ten years, even in a hundred years, I’m not confident to advance to the Ascension Realm Middle Stage."

"I acquired a treasure that enhances aptitude, maybe enabling you to break through to the Ascension Realm in ten years," Zhang Bin said with a wicked smile. "However, this treasure is for marrying a wife."

"Kid, cut the nonsense! An aptitude-enhancing treasure? Such a thing doesn’t exist on Earth,"

The Kunlun Elder automatically ignored the latter part of the sentence.

"Elder, are you trying to provoke me?" Zhang Bin said with a wicked smile, "I really fell for it, take a look."

A Jade Vial appeared in his hand.

The Kunlun Elder hurriedly snatched it, opened it, and his eyes shot with scorching light. With immense joy, he exclaimed with shock, "Is this Dragon Marrow from the Tianlong reaching Ascension Realm Great Perfection? How can you have such a precious treasure?"

"Don’t ask why. Just tell me, will it benefit you, can you break through to the Ascension Realm Middle Stage in ten years?" Zhang Bin said with an evil smile.

"If it’s only this much, of course not," the Kunlun Elder looked at Zhang Bin with expectation, "If there were ten times more, it might work."

In the Jade Vial, there was only a cupful of Dragon Marrow, which was far from enough.

"Ten times? I do have it, but it’s for marrying a wife,"

Zhang Bin pretended to be unwilling as he said.

"Kid, your affairs with Xiao Lan are none of my business. I don’t mind if you pursue her," the Kunlun Elder said, "But if you fail, I won’t help you. Does that work?"

He was wise enough to know Zhang Bin’s cunning intentions.

"First tell me, is Xiao Lan really that beautiful?"

Zhang Bin boldly put his arm around the Kunlun Elder’s shoulder, lowering his voice with an evil smile.

"Look at me, how handsome and attractive I am. Do you think my granddaughter could be any less? Let me tell you, Xiao Lan is undoubtedly Earth’s number one beauty,"

The Kunlun Elder said proudly.

"This guy’s a bit sneaky, boasting without a draft just for Dragon Marrow."

Zhang Bin grumbled internally, observing the Kunlun Elder up and down, noticing he indeed had some charm and handsomeness.

However, recalling Xiao Lan’s alluring figure and her natural fragrance, his heart raced. She was definitely a rare beauty!

He couldn’t let her slip by.

Hehehe...

"Then this Dragon Marrow can be the bride price, how about it?"

Zhang Bin took out another Jade Vial, smiling wickedly.

"Okay, okay, if Xiao Lan is willing,"

The Kunlun Elder’s eyes widened to the limit, his breathing becoming incredibly rapid.
