Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 710 - 709: Yu Xianlan’s Excitement

The crowd around them dispersed, and the atmosphere instantly became incredibly delicate.

Du Bingxin seemed to be at odds with Yu Xianlan.

"I’m glad you’re okay, then I’ll take my leave," said Du Bingxin.

The next moment, she was about to leave.

"Wait," called Yu Xianlan, stopping Du Bingxin.

Du Bingxin paused, but she didn’t speak.

"Du Bingxin, I hope the Moon Pavilion will side with us, so the Immortal Hall can return to its former state," said Yu Xianlan.

"Side with you? How much chance of victory do you think you have left? Our father once stood by your side, but what did you do?" Du Bingxin retorted with a sneer.

Yu Xianlan’s expression turned solemn.

"I know, our Immortal Hall owes your father, which is why I hope you can trust us once more," Yu Xianlan said.

"Hmm, if there’s nothing else, then let’s part ways here," Du Bingxin said bluntly, then she stepped into the air and left.

Clearly, the prohibition against flying was useless against her.

Zhuge Yun also glanced at Yu Xianlan before disappearing on the spot.

Watching Du Bingxin leave, Yu Xianlan’s face showed a helpless expression.

She then turned to Xu Ping’an and asked, "Are you all right?"

"I’m fine, thanks for your help this time," Xu Ping’an expressed his gratitude.

"It was nothing, and besides, our agreement has not yet been fulfilled. I cannot let you die just yet," Yu Xianlan said.

Hearing her words, Xu Ping’an chuckled softly.

"Actually, I’ve already found the thing you were looking for," Xu Ping’an said.

"What, that’s great! Tell me where it is!" Yu Xianlan, overwhelmed with excitement, immediately grabbed Xu Ping’an’s arm.

"I found it, but I can’t give it to you," Xu Ping’an said, shaking his head in resignation.

"Why... why not?" Yu Xianlan initially reacted angrily but soon calmed down and frowned.

"Because the Innate Dao Principle has already fused with the body of an ordinary mortal. If I were to extract the Dao Laws, that person would surely die, and I cannot do that," Xu Ping’an said somberly.

"Fused with a mortal’s body? Then...is there no other way?" Yu Xianlan immediately realized what was at stake and asked anxiously.

"No, to extract the Dao Laws is to ensure that person’s death, and as for who it is, I won’t tell you," Xu Ping’an responded.

"Alright... alright then," Yu Xianlan replied, her face filled with despair.

She knew that no matter how much she pressed Xu Ping’an, he would not reveal it.

If she had to make a choice herself, to sacrifice an innocent life to save her father, she would indeed do so, even if it meant bearing infamy and sin.

But she could not demand Xu Ping’an to act that way; she had no right to.

Was the Jade Immortal Temple really doomed?

"Although I can’t give you an Innate Dao Principle, I might be able to offer your father a complete Immortal Emperor’s Dao Principle," Xu Ping’an said through a transmission.

"Immortal... Immortal Emperor’s Dao Principle?" Yu Xianlan looked at Xu Ping’an with incredulous shock.

Did Xu Ping’an possess an Immortal Emperor Level Dao Law?

And he was willing to give such Dao Laws to her?

"Do you really have an Immortal Emperor’s Dao Principle?" Yu Xianlan asked in shock.

"Yes, Fenghe Immortal Emperor, you should have heard of him," Xu Ping’an said.

"I’ve heard of him, but I never imagined you actually obtained the inheritance of Fenghe Immortal Emperor, and within it, a complete Power of Dao Principles," Yu Xianlan said, astounded.

She was aware of Xu Ping’an gaining the inheritance of Fenghe Immortal Emperor in the Great Flame Immortal Dynasty.

She just never thought that Xu Ping’an had actually obtained Fenghe Immortal Emperor’s complete Dao Laws.

"Are you...really willing to give Fenghe Immortal Emperor’s Dao Principle to my father?" Yu Xianlan asked, still in disbelief.

"I promised to give you the Innate Dao Principle, and since I’m unable to fulfill that, naturally I have to compensate you. The Immortal Emperor’s Dao Principle might not be as noble as the Innate Dao Principle, but it’s enough to mend the fissures in your father’s Dao Laws. Moreover, your father will be able to leave the Jade Spirit Realm freely, without any constraints," Xu Ping’an said.

"That’s fantastic! If you truly are willing to give the Immortal Emperor’s Dao Principle to my father, I, Yu Xianlan, will be at your service from now on, willing to be your maid or slave," Yu Xianlan said with resolute eyes.

"There’s no need for you to be a maid or slave, but in the future, if I need it, I hope the Yu Immortal Emperor will lend me a hand," Xu Ping’an said.

"Naturally, if you really save my father, both he and my mother would be immensely grateful to you," Yu Xianlan said excitedly.

If her father were to recover, all the Immortal Hall’s concerns would vanish.

Xu Ping’an would be the benefactor of the entire Immortal Hall.

"Quick, come with me now to see my mother. She’ll be overjoyed to hear this news," said Yu Xianlan as she pulled Xu Ping’an away.

Xu Ping’an smiled and did not refuse.

If it was to be given sooner or later, it might as well be now.

Moreover, even if the Yu Immortal Emperor received the Dao Laws, it would take a long time.

Alone as he was, drawing the Yu Immortal Emperor to his side might actually be a good option.

...

Soon, Xu Ping’an followed Yu Xianlan to the front of the massive Qingtian Tower.

"Wait for me here. I’ll go see my mother first. She dislikes being disturbed by outsiders, but she will surely be very pleased to see you," Yu Xianlan said excitedly.

Xu Ping’an nodded in agreement.

Yu Xianlan then quickly ran into the tower to find her mother.

Xu Ping’an stood in front of the tower, waiting silently.

It had to be said, upon closer inspection, Xu Ping’an realized just how immense the tower truly was.

Much larger than he’d imagined.

"Are you Xu Ping’an?" However, just then, a voice sounded.

A young man clad in battle armor strode out, giving Xu Ping’an a decidedly unfriendly look.

"Very strong!" Xu Ping’an was immediately alarmed, watching the newcomer cautiously.

The newcomer was very powerful, likely not inferior to him.
