Chapter 1238: I Must Have The Holy Embryo

Feiyun had no idea of the commotion caused by the appearance of the World Destruction Tablet.

He had been trapped in the palace for eight days and used various methods to no avail. The main entrance couldn’t be open and there was no other way out. The passage to Heavenly Kingdom couldn’t be activated either.

The altar to the center of the palace had calmed down and the saint blood was gone.

Was there anything in this world capable of absorbing such a large amount of saint blood? The immemorial weapon, Bloodsoul Jewel, could most likely do so. However, it would have turned this place into a forbidden zone.

“If I can’t find a way out, I have to make a way out.” He summoned Nefarious and gathered saint energy into his arm.

The blade happily absorbed his power and its malicious aura became unbearable.

The turtle protected the sisters with a formation. Otherwise, the sword’s aura alone could kill them.

“Whoosh!” He swung his blade hard enough to summon the image of a serpent king.

It smashed against the main gate and caused a violent quake, leaving behind a three-inch deep mark.

Dao laws appeared on the surface and the mark disappeared.

“How... how can this be?” Feiyun felt his hand going numb and the blade in his hand was still ringing.

An immemorial weapon couldn’t harm a single gate - something truly inconceivable.

“It’s useless, this is the resting place of two saints, and two amazing ones at that. Regular saints can’t open this place.” The turtle said.

Feiyun rarely heard the turtle speak of anyone with such reverence.

He stopped experimenting and put away the sword. He took a deep breath and said: “If it closes automatically, it will open automatically later. This place has immense spirit energy anyway, not to mention remnant saint dao, it’s a perfect place for cultivation. But first, let’s talk about the Yang Soul Holy Embryo.”

He stared at the two sisters afterward.

“Shameless.” Ji Xiaonu said.

He didn’t know why he was shameless for just wanting to talk about cultivation.

Ji Xinnu said bashfully: “As I’ve said, if you won’t marry us, we will not hand it over to you.”

“Then marriage it is.” He said.

“What?” The two didn’t expect this, the same for the turtle.

“I’ll marry you two.” Feiyun said.

They didn’t understand since he had been refusing this matter in the past. Why the sudden change of heart?

They didn’t know he had refined his evil and demon affinities into the sword. Now, he only had his true personality left.

Therefore, he wanted the Yang Soul Holy Embryo but also to take responsibility for the two of them, shouldering their karma.

Before this, he suppressed wanting the holy embryo since he knew his impure nature. After talking to Ximen Chuixiao and Zhongyuan Yidian, he understood that having many wives and concubines was the norm. Plus, men all wanted it; going against it was pretentious and hypocritical.

It required coming up with numerous reasons to abandon a woman only to be jealous once she married someone else. This also applied to the two sisters.

As long as people had seven emotions and six desires, there was no need to pretend to be a gentleman.

As the saying goes, gentlemen hid behind a facade while scoundrels’ true nature was always out in the open.

The former was a statue in a temple - sitting there and accepting respect and reverence. They had to be noble and exceptional to justify their position.

After expelling his evil and demon affinity, Feiyun learned there was no need to be pretentious. He should live true to his heart and desire. If he believed someone was right, he should pursue it without hesitation and vice versa.

“Do you truly wish to marry us or is it only for the Yang Soul Holy Embryo?” Ji Xinnu’s cheeks flushed red as she lowered her head.

“The calamity is coming and I need to be stronger to stay alive on top of protecting my families and friends. The truth is that I want the embryo. Of course, I will not mistreat you two either or let anyone bully you.” He said.

“You will take the embryo and abandon us, just like the heartless bastard.” Ji Xiaonu couldn’t forget the night her mother was killed and hated men.

“I will not.” Feiyun said.

“No one believes you.” Xiaonu said.

“I do.” Xinnu added.

“Sis, don’t be stupid, he’s a known playboy with zero sincerity.” Xiaonu became angry.

“He doesn’t need to lie to us given his cultivation. If he wants to know how to use it, he can also grasp the information out of our mind and memories.” Xinnu said.

“You know how to do that?” Xiaonu became afraid.

Feiyun nodded.

“I knew you were a villain, Sis, what should we do now? We can’t beat him.” Xiaonu grabbed Xinnu’s arm.

“We are helpless before the incoming calamity, only Feng Feiyun can protect us. The stronger he is, the safer we are.” Xinnu sighed and said.

“The big sister is wiser indeed, but I will not push this matter. Although I want the embryo, I won’t force two helpless girls.” Feiyun smiled.

“Get off your high horse.” Xiaonu was annoyed with Feiyun and didn’t wish to hand it over.

However, she didn’t like other men either and preferred him over anyone else.

“I’m not always a good person but occasionally, I can rise to the occasion.” Feiyun said.

“Please.” Xiaonu retorted.

“So will you two give me the embryo or not?” Feiyun asked.

“Marriage first.” Xinnu said.

“How about an engagement right now?” Feiyun said.

“Fine, we will promise before the statues of the saint. If you renege in the future, their power will turn you to ashes.” Xiaonu said.

Feiyun had no problem with this since it was a win-win situation for him - two beautiful wives and the holy embryo.

After promising before the statues, he finally learned how to obtain the embryo from them.

He became frozen briefly before speaking: “No wonder why you insisted on a marriage first.”

The two of them turned red and bit their lips, looking like blossoming flowers.

“It’s a bit tricky.” His brows furrowed slightly.

“You’re changing your mind?” Xiaonu was displeased.

Initially, he believed that the embryo was hidden inside them. He wanted to take it and took his time refining it to reach the saint level. This would require several centuries.

While he was right about its location, the method and actual location were unexpected. Most importantly, absorbing it only required one night, not several centuries.

So what was the problem?

This was a matter of planning for the future. With it right now, he could reach the peak of the ninth level. Just one slap would be enough to defeat someone like Thirteenth.

However, he was still far off from the saint realm. If he could wait until the ninth level before using it, he might save tens of thousands of years.

Reaching the saint realm was countless times harder than the peak of the ninth level. Thus, he wondered if he should boost his cultivation right now or wait.
