Marry the Demon Sect Girl with No Bride Price

Zhenlian City is the second largest city under the jurisdiction of the Zhenyang Sect.

Its prosperity is not inferior to Zhenyang City, but lacking the support of Zhenyang Mountain, it ultimately cannot be considered a central area.

Unlike Zhenyang City, which is directly managed by the Zhenyang Sect without a city lord, Zhenlian City is a thousand miles away, so the Zhenyang Sect appointed a city lord as the manager.

Xu Jiangxing is the current city lord.

The cold woman standing in front of Qin Gengyun is Xu Jiangxing’s daughter, Xu Caihe.

Xu Jiangxing used to be an ordinary disciple of Heaven-Reaching Peak, not particularly talented, stuck at Foundation Establishment with no hope of breaking through, so he volunteered to go to Zhenlian City to be a steward.

This was supposed to be a self-demotion, but unexpectedly, he thrived in Zhenlian City.

Because he handled a beast tide crisis excellently twenty years ago, saving Zhenlian City from severe damage, he was promoted to city lord.

Xu Jiangxing is shrewd and tactful, with superb management skills, but not skilled in cultivation, remaining a Foundation Establishment cultivator as a dignified city lord.

This is also a life regret for him, so Xu Jiangxing has extremely high expectations for his daughter.

Often, children become tools for parents to compensate for their regrets. Since Xu Jiangxing’s own cultivation is inadequate, he places his hopes on his daughter Xu Caihe.

He even wants Xu Caihe to follow the path he once walked, starting as an outer sect disciple, entering the inner sect, and then going further.

Becoming a steward disciple, then a commanding disciple, and eventually a peak master, reaching Divinity Transformation, and becoming a sect leader.

To fulfill the grand aspirations he couldn’t achieve back then.

Thus, even as the city lord’s daughter, Xu Caihe had to fight her way up from the outer sect step by step.

Many people know City Lord Xu’s story, plus Xu Caihe is truly beautiful, her temperament somewhat resembles Ye Xiyue, making her popularity among outer sect disciples second only to Princess Wu Yiren.

Her appearance immediately attracted countless attention and discussion.

"It’s a pity for Fairy Xu, just a tool for her father to fulfill his wishes."

"But Fairy Xu is really beautiful!"

"Exactly, how else could an outer sect disciple be universally recognized as a fairy."

"Ranked sixtieth on the Beauty Ranking, truly deserves the title!"

Amidst the discussions, the cold Xu Caihe remained expressionless, saluted Qin Gengyun with a cupped fist, and then drew her long sword.

The sword’s body was green and lustrous, shimmering with light, clearly an extraordinary magical artifact.

"Cuixian Sword!"

"City Lord Xu sent numerous experts to the Cuijing Mountain in the South Demon region to seek this ancient immortal artifact for Xu Caihe!"

"It’s said that this Cuixian Sword can cut mountains and rivers, I wonder how much power Fairy Xu can exert from it?"

"No matter how much power, it’s not something that He Zhiqiu can withstand."

The cold and beautiful Xu Caihe, combined with the dazzling Cuixian Sword, instantly overshadowed Qin Gengyun in terms of presence.

Senior Brother He was now completely invisible, no one even glanced at him.

Except for Junior Sister Ruomei.

The weak and delicate Ruomei looked at the invisible He Zhiqiu, the corners of her mouth slightly upturned, clearly satisfied with this situation.

That’s right, my husband is a hidden treasure, he shouldn’t be watched by so many bad women.

Amidst the discussions, Qin Gengyun also saluted Xu Caihe, then stood still.

He did not take out any magical artifact, nor did he make any other moves.

Xu Caihe frowned, her voice cold: "Fellow disciple, please draw your sword."

Fairy Xu was quite proud, she hadn’t even noticed Qin Gengyun before, didn’t even know his surname, just called him "fellow disciple".

Asking him to draw his sword, clearly thinking highly of herself, not wanting to take advantage.

Qin Gengyun smiled and said, "Junior Sister Xu, just come and attack."

Just now, Zhou Ling’Er’s attack was too weak, he didn’t feel much.

Now, this Xu Caihe seems to have a higher combat power, wielding an immortal sword, it should help test the limits of his body’s strength.

Honestly, Qin Gengyun was quite excited now.

It seemed to be his first time facing an immortal artifact, imagining the feel of the green immortal sword cutting into his muscles, Qin Gengyun’s blood boiled, a look of indulgence naturally appeared on his face.

"No wonder he ignored Zhou Ling’Er earlier, turns out he likes Junior Sister Xu!"

"Well, who doesn’t like Junior Sister Xu?"

Qin Gengyun’s indulgent smile immediately caused misunderstanding, people thought he was mesmerized by Xu Caihe’s charm, already captivated, and even willing to let Fairy Xu pass the test willingly.

Liu Su’s eyes widened instantly.

Hey, hey, this Xu Caihe’s cold demeanor is similar to the Saintess who transformed into Qiu Zhihe.

Even their face shapes are somewhat alike, so the replacement the young lord was looking for is not Zhou Ling’Er, but Xu Caihe?!

Young lord, if you need to vent, find me, or else be careful the Saintess will come back and kill you!

Liu Su was gnashing her teeth over there, while on the other side Ruomei had a frosty face.

Haha, I forgot, Qin Gengyun likes this cold yet beautiful type.

So this Xu Caihe suits your taste, huh?

She’s wielding an immortal artifact, and you let her chop away; when I taught you magical combat back then, you weren’t this gentle!

This will be marked down again!

In the field, Xu Caihe’s gaze grew colder: "I am holding an immortal artifact."

Qin Gengyun eagerly said: "I know, Junior Sister Xu, go ahead."

Xu Caihe’s expression turned cold, she’s seen plenty of men like this, thinking that flattery will catch her attention.

Little did they know, Xu Caihe despised such unambitious men the most.

Without hesitation, the Cuixian Sword in her hand swung out, a massive green sword aura shot towards Qin Gengyun.

"Wow, so big!"

Exclamations arose around as Xu Caihe’s Foundation Establishment Peak cultivation unleashed a sword equivalent to the power of a Golden Core First-Layer!

This is the power of an immortal artifact, allowing the holder to exert combat power beyond their cultivation.

"Junior Brother He, be careful!"

On the high platform, Cheng Yue couldn’t help but shout.

But Qin Gengyun remained motionless, the green sword aura swiftly arrived, chopping at his shoulder.

Clang!

Instead of the expected flesh and blood flying, there was the familiar sound of metal clashing.

The green sword aura slashed at Qin Gengyun’s body, it was like cutting into hard immortal iron, sparking a burst of sparks, and then the sword aura dissipated.

"..."

The entire field fell silent.

"No way... that hard?"

A female disciple gaped, staring at Qin Gengyun dumbfoundedly, his shoulder besides some damaged clothing, his body was unscathed.

Xu Caihe paused, her expression turning even colder, she shouted, leaping into the air, her clothes fluttering, black hair flying, her graceful figure akin to a celestial immortal.

Raising her hand, a larger green sword aura flew out like lightning, crashing down on Qin Gengyun’s head like a mountain!

"Golden Core Second-Layer!"

This strike was equivalent to a full force attack of a Golden Core Second-Layer.

"Come on!"

Qin Gengyun was excited, raising his arms to block over his head, still intent on taking the hit head-on.

The mountain-like sword aura descended.

Clang!!

A huge impact sound echoed, the lower-level outer sect disciples were shaken and dizzy, nearly falling over.

Looking back at the field, Qin Gengyun remained standing like a mountain, he lowered his arms, looking at the spot that had blocked the sword aura, showing two shallow white marks, but no injury to the flesh.

He nodded in satisfaction.

Sure enough, he could perfectly withstand a Golden Core Second-Layer attack.

Now he wondered if he could easily withstand a Golden Core Third-Layer.

So Qin Gengyun looked up at Xu Caihe and asked: "Junior Sister Xu, could you use a little more strength?"
