In the afternoon, Xiao Chen was feeding Tang Jingxue who leaned her back on the bed.
After he reached the mysterious platform realm, his physical strength had improved significantly.
So, Tang jingxue was lost the "battle" one-sidedly.
Had Tang Jingxue awakened the Eternal Frost Celestial Yin Physique, the battle would have been even.
As he was thinking of physiques, he remembered his physique. The Innate Demonic and Divine Immortal Physique can devour and assimilate everything.
But it was bit of a waste if he didn't devour any physique or heavenly treasures.
It wasn't his fault either.
There wasn't anything worth devouring in the lower realm except for Ye fan's physique.
Xiao chen had already decided to devour his physique before killing him.
He then remembered the treasure hidden in the location marked in the map.
If everything had gone according to the plot without his intervention.Ye Fan would have obtained the heavenly and earthly fire named 'Celestial Flame of Harmony' and a nameless cultivation technique in the tomb indicated by the map.
In the cultivation world, countless treasures exist, and heaven and earth fire ranked high among them all.
Cultivators can subdue and refine these fires.
If one succeeded in subduing a heaven and earth fire, it would bring them immeasurable benefits.
Their combat prowess would soar to a higher level compared to those of the same realm.
Normal cultivators would turn to ashes near these fires and even powerful cultivators would struggle to subdue them because higher-level treasures are spiritual and choose their owners.
Many people would struggle to refine one of these fires, but cultivators with Yang-type physiques and bloodlines can refine several according to the rank of their physiques and bloodlines.
With the help of the nameless cultivation technique, Ye Fan would have no limits to the number of heavenly and earthly fires he can refine.
More importantly, that technique could increase its rank proportional to the number of fires refined and even transform one's physique.
Ye Fan would transform his Great Yang Divine Body into an extreme level fire-type physique called 'Boundless Flame Sovereign Physique' with the help of this technique during Tang jingxue's physique awakening.
When Xiao chen thought of that nameless cultivation art and Boundless Flame Sovereign Physique, intense greed flashed in his eyes and his physique trembled in hunger.
Tang Jingxue panicked, seeing his eyes turn intense.
"Brother....Chen, I am very tired!" She said with a panicked face.
"I-i can't handle with another round" After saying that, She covered her face with a bedsheet cutely.
"Xu'uer, That's not it"
He said with a embarassed face, realising that she had misunderstood him.
"Really? You are not lying?" She asked, narrowing her eyes as this wasn't the first time he fooled her with this trick.
Seeing this, Xiao chen changed the topic and asked with an angry face.
"Xu'uer, what about those pursuing you? Are there any troublemakers?"
Tang Jingxue saw right through him and smiled as she found his actions cute.
Recalling his words, She had a helpless look on her face.
"Many people are trying to court me but only a few can be considered nuisance." her eyes were filled with disgust as she spoke off her next words.
"Among them, especially Xing Hao, the crown prince of the Imperial Star Dynasty, tried to kill anyone who courts me and stalked me at every meeting we had so far"
A cruel light flashed in Xiao Chen's eyes after listening to her words.
The Imperial Star Dynasty was one of the four major powers in the Continent who was ruler of the Western domain and Xing Hao was the crown prince of the Imperial Star Dynasty and a well-known stalker of Tang Jingxue who was rumoures to be the number one beauty of the Azure Jade Continent.
In the following plot, Ye Fan clashed with Xing Hao, who came to pester Tang Jingxue during the Annual Sect competition.
Seeing this, Ye fan would challenge Xing hao and defeat Xing Hao.
After that, Ye Fan would become famous across the continent.
Xing Hao who had suffered defeat would target Ye fan at every chance.
At that point,Ye Fan, who had just reached the Mysterious Platform Realm shouldn't have been able to escape the pursuit of Imperial Star Dynasty.
But he would coincidentally escape every time and became stronger with each clash.
With the help of the 'experience package' given by the 'final boss', Ye fan grew stronger and finally annihilated the 'final boss' named the Imperial Star Dynasty.
As Xiao chen recalled all this, he rubbed his chin, grinned dangerously after thinking of a plan to get rid of the pest distrubing his woman.
Tang Jingxue who had sensed his murderous intent was shocked and pleaded with a worried look on her face.
"No! Brother Chen, you can't kill Xing Hao"
"He is the crown prince of the Imperial Star Dynasty."
"If anything happens to me, I will...!" She paused, hugged his waist with her eyes closed in fear.
"Xu'uer, I understand your worries but I can't stand seeing trash who act without knowing their places" Xiao Chen pulled Tang Jingxue into his arms, lifted her chin and made her look into his eyes.
"Trust me just this once, will you?" he looked at her with a affectionate look on his face.
Silence filled the room as both of them stared at each other.
Finally, Tang jingxue sighed, gave up after seeing his stubbornness.
Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief after getting her approval, She put her arms around his neck and pulled him into a kiss.
After a minute, Tang jingxue stopped kissing and said with a stubborn face, equal to his.
"If I see that you are in danger, i will intervene immediately"
"Haha, You really are....." Xiao chen smiled with a silly face after hearing her words and placed his hand on her cheek. 'It seems I can't beat you in terms of stubbornness'
***
During their small talk, both of them didn't consider Xing Hao and the Imperial Star Dynasty as a threat.
Tang Jingxue wasn't worried because the Peerless Heaven Sword Sect was not much different from the Imperial Star Dynasty in terms of power and she still got the trump card left by her.
Additionally, Xiao Chen she knows wasn't an impulsive man who would do something dangerous without consequences just to impress her.
Tang Jingxue also had her suspicious about Xiao chen, the mysterious man whose cultivation speed, comprehension, and temperament surpassing those monstrous talents from the upper realm.
While she was occupied with her thoughts, Xiao Chen was filled with delight after seeing her reaction to his words about killing Xing Hao.
In the future, he might have to kill countless people, even innocent ones.
So, that's why he tested her by releasing his murderous intent.
When he saw her pleading with a genuinely worried expression, he finally felt a sense of belonging to someone.
As an orphan, he didn't have any friends or confidants in his previous life. It was the first time for him to see someone who was so worried for him
At first, he approached her with calculative intentions and became her dao companion by an accident.
But as time went by, he gradually grew fond of Tang Jingxue.
As he pondered his feelings, he secretly vowed in his heart to protect her for the rest of his life.
Exactly at that moment, system prompts sounded in his mind.
[Ding! Tang Jingxue's favorability increased by 7.]

In the evening, both of them decided to pay a visit to the city lord.
As they walked out of the inn together, Xiao chen immediately felt a fiery gaze focused on him.
'Just as I expected,' He smiled, knowing who it was. 'He was waiting for me'
A few moments before, The Oracle Stone locator had already notified him of Ye Fan's location.
After deciding to follow Xiao chen, Ye Fan had rented a room near the inn where he was staying.
It didn't take much time to find the inn as Xiao chen and Tang jingxue were basically the talk of the town.
When Ye Fan saw the two of them comimg out, He shot a glare at Xiao chen and turned his head to the woman that was eerily similar to Tang Jingxue.
Seeing her so lively and chatting happily with Xiao Chen while holding one of his arms, He was uncomfortable as though he had eaten shit.
He silently followed Xiao Chen and Tang Jingxue to the city lord mansion.
Soon, a magnificent silver manison appeared in sight which screamed of wealth.
Looking at this place, Xiao Chen felt a sharp sensation like a sword hidden in his sheath.
As the two of them approached the gate, the butler immediately came to their side and invited them inside. "Please this way, Young Master and Young Lady."
Seeing his polite actions, the guards and the servants saluted them, thier shouts echoing throughout the mansion.
Xiao Chen and Tang Jingxue nodded and went inside the mansion.
Ye Fan retreated after seeing them enter the city lord mansion with a puzzled face.
The City Lord of Silver Cloud City had a very high status in the Peerless Heaven Sword Sect.
Even with his genius status, He couldn't get into this mansion in the past.
Just then, the image of the woman who was with Xiao chen came to his mind and as he recalled Tang Jingxue's status as a saint, he immediately stopped in his tracks.
'No.....way! It can't be....!!' he immediately threw this thought out of his mind as it scared him to the core.
His pride couldn't accept his goddess being with a man other than him and his arrogance as the Young Master of the Immortal Ye family won't allow it!
