After cultivating immortality for three thousand years, I return and slaughter my way across the ent

Chapter 214 Expressing Feelings

The Jiang family was wiped out overnight.

This news was naturally blocked immediately.

The impact is, of course, enormous.

The entire Jiangnan region was shaken by an earthquake. With the death of the bigwigs who controlled each industry, earth-shattering changes occurred in major industries in Jiangnan, even affecting the whole country and catching countless people in all walks of life off guard.

Yun Chen had no interest in meddling in these matters.

The destruction of the Jiang family is just the beginning; other organizations will surely emerge to harm the corrupted Immortal Clan.

Furthermore, there is also the Ying family in the southwest.

There is also a Lin family and a Bei family in the north.

Finally, there's the formidable Dragon Group.

All I can say is that there is still a long way to go.

After wiping out the Jiang family, Yun Chen returned to his residence.

At this moment, in Cangcheng, at a secluded residence.

Everyone had their own things to do.

Qin Xi and Chu Miaomiao are organizing the collected scriptures.

These scriptures are mostly fragments.

Many of them were destroyed.

One in a thousand, or even one in ten thousand, would survive.

Many scriptures clearly show huge gaps, lacking continuity and extensibility. One system after another is broken, and they are unable to restore them with their current abilities.

According to their understanding.

All the existing scriptures in the world, except those in caves that have not yet been excavated, have been monopolized by the Dragon Group.

Zhao Ming did not stay in the villa with them, but instead devoted himself to cultivation and studying the ancient scriptures in the room arranged for him. He had also begun to practice some of the most basic spells, but he needed to be given enough time to cultivate.

After Yun Chen returned, he briefly explained the situation to everyone.

Then, Qin Xi went up and pulled him away alone.

The two went to a room alone.

Yun Chen was a little confused: "Xi Xi, what's wrong?"

Qin Xi reached out and touched him all over.

Yun Chen held her soft wrists.

Qin Xi breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that he was unharmed. Looking into Yun Chen's eyes, she said, "I felt a little uneasy earlier, thinking something might have happened to you at the Jiang family. I'm so glad you're not hurt!"

Yun Chen smiled slightly, grasped her hand, squeezed it tightly, and said earnestly, "Don't worry, silly girl, I'm fine. It was just a snake demon equivalent to the early Foundation Establishment stage. It was easy to take it down. The Jiang family's main camp has already been destroyed."

Qin Xi was somewhat dissatisfied with this title: "I'm not stupid."

Yun Chen laughed and said, "Alright, silly little sister."

Qin Xi was stunned when she heard this address.

This was the first time she had heard Yun Chen address her like that. The two had been together since childhood, and Yun Chen had always called her Xi Xi.

Yun Chen asked, "What's wrong?"

Qin Xi, lost in thought, asked, "You called me 'little sister'? All these years, you've treated me like a little sister?"

Yun Chen thought for a moment, then looked at her earnestly and said, "Actually, you're not just my sister, but also family I can't sever ties with. Don't overthink it. I see you and Miaomiao the same way; you are both my most important family members!"

Clearly, he didn't understand what Qin Xi meant.

The three of them grew up together, but she was closest to Yun Chen, and they were hardly separated even when they went up the mountain to cultivate.

Now, Miaomiao and Ye Mo are clearly a couple.

Over the past six months, Yun Chen and Qin Xi have traveled to various regions of China, traversing high mountains and snowfields, exploring ancient caves, witnessing diverse landscapes, experiencing the myriad aspects of human life, studying scriptures and exchanging insights, and remaining inseparable.

At this moment, Qin Xi suddenly became anxious: "Yun Chen, besides family, what else do you consider me to be?"

Yun Chen paused, puzzled, and asked, "Uh... friend?"

Qin Xi opened her beautiful eyes wide: "Friend?"

The next second, she laughed in anger. She didn't know if Yun Chen was pretending to be stupid or if he was really clueless when it came to emotions.

Then, she stopped hiding and suddenly reached out her long arms to tightly hug Yun Chen's neck. Their faces were very close, their noses almost touching, and they could clearly feel each other's breath.

Yun Chen didn't resist, letting the other woman wrap her arms around his neck, and asked with a surprised expression, "Xi Xi, what are you doing?"

Qin Xi looked into his eyes: "Tell me the truth, do you even have feelings for me?"

Yun Chen's eyes darted away.

At that moment, he finally understood what the other person meant.

Seeing that Yun Chen didn't speak, Qin Xi's eyes reddened. What a big idiot, did he have to make her say it herself?

Yun Chen didn't know how to answer, but he was very clear that he definitely had feelings for Qin Xi. There was no need to say more. It was just that he had been used to this kind of relationship with her since childhood, and at this moment, he couldn't change his mindset.

He reached out and wrapped his arms tightly around her soft waist: "Okay, Xixi, calm down first, okay?"

Qin Xi expressed her feelings directly: "I'm very calm. I want to be your wife and stay by your side forever!"

Yun Chen said, "I know you too well."

Qin Xi said, "Isn't it better to get to know each other better?"

Yun Chen looked into her eyes, a smile appearing on his face, and spoke frankly: "It's precisely because I'm so familiar with you that I'm afraid I'll be too embarrassed to take your clothes off in the future."

Qin Xi was domineering; she forcefully pushed Yun Chen onto the bed, straddling him. In a fit of anger, she reached down and removed her outermost layer of clothing: "You're embarrassed, huh? Fine, I don't need you to do it, I'll take the initiative myself, okay?"

Yun Chen thought to himself that he shouldn't have inadvertently uttered the words "sister," which triggered this chain reaction.

He quickly stood up, stopping Qin Xi. With lightning speed, he grabbed her wrist with one hand and hugged her tightly with the other, patiently coaxing her, "Alright, silly girl, don't overthink it. Of course I care about you!"

Qin Xi's eyes reddened upon hearing this: "I can't find our parents, I only have you and Miaomiao left."

Yun Chen reached out and helped Qin Xi put her clothes back on. Then he put his arm around her waist and held her in his arms. They didn't say a word. For the rest of the night, the two of them quietly held each other and snuggled together.

Qin Xi finally fell asleep in Yun Chen's arms at dawn. Yun Chen gently took off her coat and shoes, put her on the bed, covered her with a blanket, and then left.

Then Yun Chen pulled out a large number of scriptures and began to study them.

He wanted to condense his golden core and find a way to break through, but the scriptures he currently possessed were still too few for normal cultivation.

How to condense the Golden Elixir and advance to a higher level is only mentioned in fragments of the scriptures we currently possess.

Records mention that special elixirs could be used, but the recipes for these elixirs have clearly been lost and cannot be found. Other records suggest that a magical artifact could be used as an aid, but the method for crafting that artifact has also disappeared. Still others mention setting up special formations, but it's clear that not only are the formation manuals lost, but the materials needed to set them up are also extremely difficult to find.

All of the above are recorded in various ways, but at least for now, there is simply no feasible way to break through this barrier.

Furthermore, Yun Chen keenly perceived that the meaning conveyed between the lines of these brief remarks was very clear: using various methods to assist in the breakthrough was only the worst option and was by no means the mainstream in that era. In other words, for cultivators in that era, breaking through to the Golden Core stage was something they had to achieve on their own.

For our ancestors living in that kind of environment and era, breaking through to the Golden Core realm must have been very easy.

On this day, Yun Chen fell into deep thought. With no other options, he could only try to break through on his own.

So he told everyone that he was going into seclusion.

Yun Chen spent half a month in seclusion this time. He sat alone in his room, undisturbed.
