How dare you be so presumptuous with me?
You decided to diligently practice, which was not difficult for you. In just two years, you mastered the fundamentals of the Carefree Divine Skill. (Consumption of Luck Points.)
Five more years passed, and you grasped the essence of the Carefree Divine Skill. Now, you could instinctively utilize some key aspects of this martial art. (Consumption of Luck Points.)
After ten years, you knew your choice had been correct. On this day, your cultivation reached a significant level. (Consumption of Luck Points.)
However, after reaching this level, you began to feel something was off. Your cultivation speed not only failed to improve but actually regressed significantly, which puzzled you as you couldn't identify the cause. (Consumption of Luck Points.)
Unsure of what to do, you continued to push through your training, but ultimately gained nothing and instead saw your skills regress from a high level back to a lower one. (Consumption of Luck Points.)
How could this happen?
Chen Anlin scratched his head, feeling somewhat perplexed. Logically, there shouldn't have been any failures; how could he regress?
After some thought, he chose the third option based on his foundation.
You decided to use your intellect to modify the skill.
You spent ten years finally identifying the problem: in order to cultivate this skill properly, one must start from a lower level to achieve perfection; otherwise, as vitality wanes, one would only grow weaker.
Fortunately, you found a solution: by utilizing spiritual energy, you could maximize the effectiveness of the skill! However, before that, you needed to completely abandon everything you had learned about the Carefree Divine Skill.
Thus, this time everything fell into place effortlessly; it only took you three years to cultivate the skill to perfection. (Consumption of Luck Points.)
You consumed an astonishing amount of Luck Points in one go, but the rewards were immense.
The Carefree Divine Skill truly lived up to its reputation as a top-tier celestial-level technique.
Stepping outside, you decided to give it a try.
With a swift movement, your entire being soared directly into the sky.
So fast—indeed, it was much faster than flying on a sword!
Boom!!
Chen Anlin landed steadily on a vast expanse of grass. The sound of bubbling springs surrounded him, and the environment was picturesque. He executed his footwork, channeling the Xianyao Divine Art to its utmost limit. At that moment, he moved with the speed of lightning, leaving only an afterimage behind.
Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind. This sensation... Chen Anlin couldn't help but smile as he decisively sat down cross-legged. To his surprise, after cultivating the Xianyao Divine Art, he had unexpectedly triggered a feeling of advancement. It was hard to believe that he could reach such a level in such a short time.
The night passed just like that. By dawn, Chen Anlin had already arrived outside the imperial palace. At this point, he had reached the peak of the fourth rank.
In the grand hall of the palace, Wu Xixue lounged lazily in a purple dress adorned with tassels, reclining against the dragon throne. Yang Dou looked at Chen Anlin in astonishment. "Xiao Anzi, you've advanced again? The speed at which you've reached the peak of the fourth rank is impressive. It seems your journey has yielded significant rewards."
Wu Xixue gently played with her delicate fingers as she spoke to Chen Anlin in a casual tone that carried an air of languor. "Thanks to Your Majesty's esteemed reputation, my tasks outside have gone much more smoothly."
Though Chen Anlin's words seemed like flattery, they were heartfelt. Despite having some strength outside, he knew it paled in comparison to those truly powerful families. So why did those influential families give him face? The answer was simple—it was all because of the Empress.
If it weren't for the Empress's backing, those powerful families wouldn't have paid him any mind at all. Wu Xixue was quite pleased with Chen Anlin's response, thinking to herself that this kid, despite being arrogant outside, still understood who his true support was.
Wu Xixue lightly parted her crimson lips. "I heard you made a guarantee for the Wan Sword Manor, that you would protect them."
"Your Majesty, it is indeed so."
"I never agreed to that."
"Your Majesty, this is beneficial for us without any harm. The Wan Sword Manor has already pledged their support to the court and will absolutely not oppose it! Moreover, I also obtained these two items."
Chen Anlin produced the Carefree Divine Skill and the Mirror of Reversal.
Yang Dou exclaimed in surprise, "You actually got your hands on them! My goodness, when did you manage that?"
She had been secretly protecting Chen Anlin all this time and had no idea when he acquired these two treasures.
Wu Xixue was also somewhat taken aback. "You managed to obtain these two items without anyone noticing? Little Anzi, you are becoming increasingly difficult to see through!"
"Your Majesty, Little Anzi has merely grasped some minor skills; it's nothing worth mentioning."
"Let me have a look."
"As you command."
Chen Anlin handed over the items.
Wu Xixue took the two treasures, examining them closely. Suddenly, she looked up in astonishment. "They really are genuine!"
"Little Anzi, how did you get them?" Yang Dou asked in surprise.
"I'll take a guess," Wu Xixue said. "You dealt with Li Xiang, didn't you? Is it true that these items were stolen by him?"
Although Wu Xixue had not been present, Yang Dou had reported the events to her, so she was aware of some details.
Chen Anlin chuckled and nodded. "Your Majesty is wise."
"Stop flattering me. I see you had quite a good time this time around, even managing to win over the young lady of the Wan Sword Manor. She has a fiancé, you know."
"Uh..." Chen Anlin scratched his head. "If she loves me too much, I wouldn't want to hurt anyone."
He said this without batting an eye.
Wu Xixue's expression turned cold as she said sternly, "Is that really true? I don't believe it."
Hearing this, Chen Anlin's temper flared.
"It's absolutely true."
