Qin Chuan had no idea how long it had been since they last parted, and he couldn't even remember even if he tried hard to recall.
"I came to find my woman. What are you doing here?" Qin Chuan was genuinely curious.
"I'm accompanying the princess of the Great Wind Dynasty back for a few days. Come on, let's go inside and talk," the woman said happily, even tugging at Qin Chuan's sleeve.
Qin Chuan knew very well what kind of physique this woman possessed, and he knew her destined fate.
He knew her physique was excellent, particularly suited for cultivation, and her future achievements were limitless; he just hadn't expected to meet her in this Nine Heavens Land.
Before Qin Chuan could say anything, the woman pulled him into the palace.
Clearly, she held a high position in the palace; the guards didn't dare to stop her.
Qin Chuan sensed the woman's strength: Void Realm.
This surprised Qin Chuan. He was currently at the Void Realm, with many opportunities, but this woman's realm wasn't lower than his; she should be at the eighth or ninth level of the Void Realm.
Soon, Qin Chuan saw the princess of the Great Wind Dynasty, a very beautiful woman.
This woman's demeanor was somewhat similar to that of the Stone Maiden National Preceptor. Yes, she was the National Preceptor of the Southern Yue Empire, and formerly possessed the Stone Maiden Holy Body, the Stone Maiden.
As for her name, Qin Chuan didn't know; he didn't know if he had forgotten it, or if he had never known her name at all.
The princess of the Great Wind Dynasty possessed a noble and mature air, exuding an imposing aura. She was tall and slender, graceful and charming, and most importantly, she had a pair of expressive eyes.
Her temperament was aloof, somewhat similar to the Stone Maiden National Preceptor, but with a unique, cool dynamism. How to put it? She wasn't a witch, nor a demoness, nor a saint.
At this moment, she stared blankly as the Stone Maiden National Preceptor grabbed Qin Chuan's sleeve, then looked at Qin Chuan, completely bewildered.
Because she knew best what kind of woman her best friend was—a Stone Maiden, someone who could never have any contact with men in this life.
One was her heart, the other her body.
But now, seeing her best friend actively pulling at a man's sleeve—though it was a sleeve, not a hand—was enough to shock her.
"Changge, who is this?" The princess of the Great Wind Dynasty asked with a smile and curiosity.
Changge?
So this woman's name is Changge. Qin Chuan smiled and looked at the princess of the Great Wind Dynasty, saying, "We were friends many years ago, but we haven't seen each other since. Hello, my name is Qin Chuan." "
Little brother, you're so handsome, I like you." The princess of the Great Wind Dynasty gave Qin Chuan a sweet look and giggled.
Her voice was lively and her appearance was charming, but Qin Chuan knew very well that this woman's eyes were very clear. Although she seemed to be seducing him, there was a hint of something that was hard to detect.
Qin Chuan could see very clearly that this woman was no pushover. Her strength was probably on par with "Changge." At this age, it was no ordinary person to have such strength.
"Sister Lan, have you found that outside help?" Changge asked at this moment.
The princess of the Great Wind Dynasty's face turned ugly at the mention of this, and she shook her head: "I can't find it. This time, the opponents of the Puppet Sect and the Demon Cloud Palace are too strong. My royal family can't find a suitable person."
"Isn't the royal family the strongest in the Great Wind Dynasty?" Qin Chuan was stunned.
In Qin Chuan's mind, the royal family should have the highest chance of winning.
"If everything is considered, the royal family is the strongest, but this is a competition below the God of War level, and my royal family is no match," Princess Lan said with a wry smile, shaking her head.
"Well, actually, I came here to apply for this external aid position," Qin Chuan said somewhat embarrassedly.
Princess Lan and Chang Ge were taken aback, looking at Qin Chuan strangely.
Chang Ge had always believed in Qin Chuan; in her mind, he was invincible, but she hadn't considered this possibility today.
Chang Ge's eyes lit up, and she said happily, "Sister Lan, with Qin Chuan involved, it's definitely a sure thing."
Princess Lan looked at Chang Ge, then at Qin Chuan. In her opinion, Qin Chuan's cultivation level was a bit low, because the best candidates for this battle were at least at the half-step God of War level.
Even the peak of the Void Realm wasn't enough, since a difference of even a small realm was a huge gap. For example, the gap between the peak of the Void Realm and the half-step God of War level was almost insurmountable.
Qin Chuan was only at the seventh level of the Void Realm.
The gap was simply too great. Both of them had special physiques and impressive backgrounds, yet they couldn't participate because they weren't entirely confident of winning.
So neither of them could be the outside helper.
The royal family has two members who can participate; one is almost certain to win a match, while the other is a bit uncertain and needs luck. Therefore, they need a strong outside helper.
These past few days have been very stressful for the royal family. Losing would be very shameful, especially for the royal family, but winning this time is extremely difficult.
The royal family is now somewhat resigned to their fate, after all, this is the last day of preparation, and the battle will begin tomorrow.
With three strong opponents, you need to maintain a win rate in at least two matches.
Therefore, their requirements for this outside helper are very high, and they haven't found one who satisfies them yet.
Now, Princess Lan looks at Qin Chuan. His seventh-level Void Realm strength really doesn't make her optimistic. Not that she doesn't think he's good enough, but she feels he's simply not up to the task.
However, she trusts her best friend, but considering they haven't seen each other for decades, even with trust, she can't prepare so hastily.
"Changge, you haven't seen your little brother for decades, and you trust him so much?" Princess Lan looks at Changge with a playful smile.
Changge was taken aback, but didn't hesitate for long before nodding firmly: "I believe it. We can't judge him by his strength or cultivation level. Compared to him, he's the real prodigy."
Princess Lan's eyes lit up as she looked at Qin Chuan, her gaze gleaming. She could only sense a faint, unfathomable aura emanating from Qin Chuan, unrelated to his cultivation level. This aura made her feel uneasy.
"Are you really here to apply for an outside help position?" Princess Lan asked, smiling at Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan nodded.
"What are the conditions?" Princess Lan asked with a smile.
"I want a spot in the Immortal Pool," Qin Chuan said directly.
"One spot." Princess Lan seemed to be calculating something, holding up her fingers and counting.
"Changge and I have two spots, and my elder brother has one, that's three spots. The Immortal Pool can only have four people, so four is about right. If you want a spot, then there aren't any left."
Qin Chuan looked at Princess Lan and said with a smile, "As long as I participate, I can guarantee that I will win every match."
These words made Princess Lan look at Qin Chuan seriously again. She didn't know where this young man got his confidence. He was only at the seventh level of the Void Realm. How could he possibly defeat a War God of the Upper Half?
However, she also knew that there were too many geniuses and prodigies, and many things were incomprehensible and unacceptable, but they were real. For example, Qin Chuan's desire to defeat half of the God of War was incomprehensible, but it was indeed possible, and it was not a legend, just that it was relatively rare.
