The Undercover Villain Transmigrates, The Female Protagonists Are Worried

Azure State, Azure Cloud Sect

Martial Arts Arena

Two sword lights occasionally clashed, sometimes intertwined, the sword lights resembling wandering dragons, the sword cries like dragon chants!

"Senior Chu has truly progressed rapidly! Just three years ago, he was only an inner disciple, but in just three years, he has become a direct disciple, reaching the peak of the Saint Realm... Truly a result of solid accumulation."

"Ah, Junior Sister Lu is still in seclusion. Otherwise, I really want to see who is the number one swordsman in Azure Cloud Sect now!"

"I think it's still Junior Sister Lu. Her Nine Heavens Divine Thunder carries a terrifying might. Although Senior Chu is strong, he is not a match..."

"That's not necessarily true. I heard that Senior Chu obtained the inheritance of an ancient sword god two years ago, which allowed him to stand out from the inner disciples. Not only did he defeat the Sect Master, but he also received the Sect Master's teachings on the Purple Sky Divine Thunder... The Sect Master even said that if Senior Chu had appeared a few years earlier, he might have been able to compete with Qin Tianjiao!"

"Is that true? Did the Sect Master really say that?"

"Don't believe it! Let me tell you a piece of insider information. Senior Chu is going to challenge Qin Tianjiao at the Jade Lake Sacred Land soon! By then, the title of the number one genius in the Great Wilderness might change hands!"

While the group was talking, the outcome had already been decided on the stage.

"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Chu!"

"It's just a friendly sparring among fellow disciples. I have also learned a lot from you all, so there's no need to be so polite." Chu Haoran smiled.

In three years, Chu Haoran had undergone a significant transformation.

Three years ago, when facing Qin Tianjiao, he was full of self-doubt, even though he possessed the ring from his grandmother.

Three years later, Chu Haoran exuded absolute confidence. Confidence did not equate to arrogance. With the help of his grandmother, the assistance of a small bottle, and most importantly, his own hard work, he had progressed from an inner disciple to where he was now.

He had acquired what was necessary to become an unparalleled powerhouse - an indomitable will!

From this perspective, he was indeed stronger than Lu Xueqi back then. Lu Xueqi had exceptional talent, but lacked that indomitable will. She was suppressed by Murong Fu in the past and almost fell into madness after a battle with Qin Tianjiao.

Now in seclusion, it was no wonder that some fellow disciples considered Chu Haoran to be the number one among the younger generation in Azure Cloud Sect.

After nodding to the flattering crowd around him, Chu Haoran stepped onto his flying sword and disappeared in a sword light before everyone. Clad in white, he exuded an indescribable elegance.

"Master, what do you think my chances are against Qin Tianjiao?"

Back at his residence, Chu Haoran communicated with his grandmother in his mind.

"Less than thirty percent."

The words of his grandmother added some pressure to Chu Haoran. He was not one to be blindly arrogant and trusted his master's judgment.

Did he only have a thirty percent chance even with his relentless cultivation?

"Three years ago, Qin Tianjiao was already able to kill Murong Fu at the peak of the Saint Realm in the Transcendent Realm. Although you can temporarily unleash the power of the Life and Death Realm in a short time, don't forget, Qin Tianjiao has the Innate Dao Fetus Sacred Body, a physique that can cultivate even while eating and sleeping..."

"Damn it!"

Upon hearing his grandmother's explanation, Chu Haoran's three years of Qi Nurturing efforts felt somewhat futile. It was truly a case of there always being someone better!

"With me here, you can rest assured. As long as Qin Tianjiao doesn't reach the Life and Death Realm, you still have a chance. However, that would be the worst-case scenario. Your body cannot currently withstand such immense power. Even if you win against Qin Tianjiao, it would be a narrow victory," his grandmother continued.

"Master, I won't act recklessly."

"Well, how many Thunder Spirit Fruits have you collected? That should be your top priority now. Once you have enough Thunder Spirit Fruits, consuming them after cultivation will completely transform your body into a Thunder Spirit Body. Then, when you cultivate the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, your progress will be doubled, and you will truly be able to harness the power of heaven and earth."

"I have been purchasing them from various auction houses, but I've encountered a problem now. Perhaps I bought too many, attracting attention, causing the price of Thunder Spirit Fruits to skyrocket..."

"You've done well so far, but time waits for no one. Why don't you borrow some Spirit Stones?"

"Borrow? From whom?" Chu Haoran asked, puzzled.

"You fool! How did I end up with such a dim-witted disciple like you! Borrow from your senior brothers! Borrow ten or eight Spirit Stones from each of them. With so many disciples in Azure Cloud Sect, how many do you need to borrow?"

"But..."

"But nothing! Let me give you another idea. Borrow ten Spirit Stones from each of them, and after a month, return eleven to each of them. The extra one can be considered as interest. Is that acceptable?"

"Wouldn't the monthly interest amount to thousands of Spirit Stones?" Chu Haoran calculated in surprise.

"Just continue borrowing! Borrow from the later ones and repay the earlier ones, and repeat the cycle... Use this Spirit Stones to enhance yourself. Once you become the number one genius in Great Xia, people will come to you with money! This small amount of money is nothing."

Upon hearing this, Chu Haoran realized the feasibility of this method. His senior brothers would receive interest, he would solve his financial problem in the short term, a win-win situation!

"Master, you are truly amazing!" Chu Haoran admired.

"Hmph, boy, you still have a lot to learn. Your mind is too rigid. Throughout history, winners and losers have existed. Sometimes, certain extraordinary means are necessary," his grandmother said smugly.

"Master, we cultivators follow the path of heaven, adhering to rules. If we resort to any means to become stronger, how are we different from demons and monsters? That is not my way!" Chu Haoran said after a moment of silence.

"That's why you are rigid. I didn't ask you to kill or rob. Think more about methods like the one just now," his grandmother advised.

"Understood, I have learned from your teachings. I will go borrow Spirit Stones from my senior brothers and strive to gather enough Thunder Spirit Fruits soon."

Inside the Secret Realm palace, Duan Yi was like an ant on a hot pan. It had been three days, and he had no idea about Qin Tianjiao's current situation. What was even more horrifying was that he couldn't open the exit passage anymore! The entire palace was sealed by a powerful force!

He could only test whether Qin Tianjiao was alive or not by self-harming, enduring the burning pain in his soul each time.

Inside the black palace, Qin Tianjiao sat cross-legged on the bed with closed eyes. The mark on his forehead emitted a dazzling light, and his aura had increased several times compared to when he just broke through to the peak of the Saint Realm!

Above Qin Tianjiao's head, another scene unfolded. Two Spirit Bodies were entwined with each other, a sight that even the ladies of the brothel would find scandalous...

From resistance at the beginning to enjoyment now, Xia Yuhe even seemed reluctant to stop. With a cultivation far surpassing Qin Tianjiao's, she took the initiative, gaining the upper hand.

After three days and nights of soulful cultivation, the two finally concluded their practice. Qin Tianjiao's cultivation had soared to the peak of the Saint Realm in one go, saving him years of hard work.

As the Spirit Body re-entered his physical body, the fusion of souls brought a unique sensation...

A blush spread across Xia Yuhe's face as she nestled in Qin Tianjiao's arms, softly saying, "Husband, don't worry. The past is like a passing cloud for you. It's a blessing from heaven that we can meet again. As long as you have me in your heart, it's enough."

"My dear..."

"Husband, I've been thinking..."

"My dear, don't rush. Let me speak first. I didn't leave behind any Emperor Weapons or precious materials from my previous life, did I?"

"My dear... In your previous life, you plundered countless precious materials from the Great Wilderness to forge the Town-Subduing Cauldron. You even took the moon with you and sold the remaining precious materials... exchanging them for these Supreme Grade Yin Crystals... You... you won't blame me, will you?"

"Squandering... is a way to manage wealth! How could I blame you..." Qin Tianjiao was heartbroken to the point of breathlessness! A spendthrift woman! You exchanged the Great Emperor's inheritance for a palace coffin...

I knew you wouldn't bear to scold me... My dear... come quickly..."
