After much thought, Ye Tianchen seemed to feel that he should get married. However, the only person he could think of as a marriage candidate was Liu Rumei. But would Liu Rumei agree?

In Ye Tianchen’s mind, he hoped Liu Rumei would agree, yet also hoped she wouldn’t. If she agreed, it would naturally be great, as it would be the perfect culmination of things, especially since his parents highly approved of Liu Rumei. It’s possible if Ye Tianchen chose to marry another woman, there would be strong opposition. However, he didn’t want Liu Rumei to agree because he didn’t want to "harm" her. For a woman, choosing to marry someone means spending a lifetime together. If one cannot provide her with happiness and stability, it is the greatest harm to her.

Ye Tianchen didn’t want to hurt Liu Rumei, but if he were to marry, there was no better choice than Liu Rumei. Deeply conflicted, he left the decision to Liu Rumei, and no matter what choice she made, Ye Tianchen would respect it without any insistence!

Without any concealment, Ye Tianchen candidly told Liu Rumei everything truthfully. He didn’t force Liu Rumei to make a decision immediately as he understood that it was not easy, and possibly even harsh for her. Liu Rumei was an exceptional and good woman, and Ye Tianchen truly didn’t want to wrong her. After saying these words, he chose to leave, allowing Liu Rumei to think without any pressure, to make a choice without any weight.

As the night grew darker, after Ye Tianchen returned to his villa, Liu Rumei was still sitting in the pavilion by the small lake. Looking at the calm lake, Liu Rumei couldn’t help but smile self-deprecatingly and said, "Ye Tianchen, what’s so good about you that makes me feel this way? From our first interaction to now, could this be a twist of fate? An irrevocable entanglement?"

After saying this, Liu Rumei couldn’t help but laugh, feeling a sense of helplessness and bewilderment—this is life’s unpredictability and capricious fate, isn’t it?

Back then, the "feud" between Liu Rumei and Ye Tianchen was widespread in the Capital City. Though not quite a household story, at least in the Chinese upper society, it was widely known and became a topic of gossip. Given all this, even the Liu family and the Ye family, Liu Rumei and Ye Tianchen, shouldn’t be in a position of life-and-death enmity or irreconcilable estrangement. Who would have thought scenes like today would occur? Truly, life is full of unexpected turns!

"What’s happening to me? I, Liu Rumei, am a woman who dares to love and hate, how can I be so indecisive today?" Liu Rumei couldn’t help but laugh and talk to herself.

After a while, Liu Rumei flashed a mischievous smile, then stood up and stretched lazily. Under the moonlight, Liu Rumei appeared like a fairy from the Ninth Heaven yet playfully and adorably said, "Ye Tianchen, if you want to marry me, I might agree, but it won’t be that easy... Hmph!"

At this moment, Ye Tianchen, back in his villa, was still unsure what to do. He had already told Liu Rumei about the real outlook of the Martial Arts World. After Liu Rumei’s surprise, reaction, and series of questions, it seemed she had accepted such a philosophy and worldview. Therefore, when Ye Tianchen told his parents and sister, could they accept it? Would they think he had gone mad and try to send him to a hospital?

Next, Ye Tianchen faced the dilemma of whether his parents could accept the matters regarding the Martial Arts World after he told them. What choices would they make? This was something Ye Tianchen needed and had to consider, as it truly mattered to him!

"Wow, back so late, were you on a date with Liu Rumei?" Little Black Bear asked with a smile as Ye Tianchen walked into the villa.

"Go mind your own business!" Ye Tianchen looked at Little Black Bear with irritation and said.

"Hey, bro, that’s not fair. I’m concerned about you, so how can you hurt the feelings of the people like this?" Little Black Bear asked in a serious manner.

"You, with those few bugs in your stomach, think I don’t know? Trying to hear some gossip, don’t try to dig information from me, otherwise, I’ll send you to train in the Holy Heaven Prison!" Ye Tianchen said, giving Little Black Bear a threatening look.

"Bro, you can’t keep threatening me like this. How am I supposed to hang around with you?" Little Black Bear said, looking quite frustrated.

Ye Tianchen glanced at Little Black Bear, too lazy to bother with him. In truth, Little Black Bear was just a mischievous fellow. Currently, Ye Tianchen was quite troubled, and if Little Black Bear dared say more, Ye Tianchen would really lock him up in the "Holy Heaven Prison"!

"You dared to follow me? You’re quite bold, aren’t you!" Ye Tianchen said, looking at Little Black Bear with an annoyed expression.

"Stop it, with the level of your cultivation realm, could I still track you silently? It’s just because you were too engrossed in conversation with Liu Rumei, so when I passed by, you didn’t notice!" Little Black Bear hurriedly said.

"Oh come on, how is it that I feel like you were eavesdropping?" Ye Tianchen asked with a sly smile.

"No way, I definitely wasn’t eavesdropping, don’t accuse me!" Little Black Bear became alert because the more it looked at Ye Tianchen, the more something felt off!

"Eavesdropping? You might as well spend some time in the Holy Heaven Prison!" Ye Tianchen smiled mischievously, waved his right hand, and a surge of Chaos Qi instantly bound Little Black Bear!

"No way, is this even possible? You’re just trying to pin the blame on me without any evidence..." Little Black Bear lamented.

"Good that you know, obediently cultivate inside or I’ll keep you trapped for a few more years!" Ye Tianchen chuckled.

"Oh my, you’re just petty and vindictive because you’re still upset about me and Liu Rumei tricking you, and now you want revenge. But there’s no need for all this nonsense!" Little Black Bear exclaimed.

"Say whatever you like, go inside!" Ye Tianchen waved his right hand again, and the surge of Chaos Qi pulled Little Black Bear into his body.

Poor Little Black Bear, choosing the worst time to get on Ye Tianchen’s nerves. Isn’t this asking for trouble? Knowing well that Ye Tianchen was still annoyed from being deceived by him and Liu Rumei during the day, yet tonight he got pranked—Little Black Bear surely brought this upon itself!

After dealing with Little Black Bear, Ye Tianchen yawned, walked into his room, but didn’t immediately fall asleep. He was pondering over how to explain the Martial Arts World perspective to his parents tomorrow. It mattered a lot to him and kept him wide awake, leading him to sit cross-legged on his bed, with a single thought two Divine Swords emerged from his body: one was the Cheng Ying Sword and the other was the Zhanlu Sword!

Ye Tianchen has already acquired five of the Ancient Ten Divine Swords, and if anyone knew, spreading the word within the entire Martial Arts World would truly shake the earth. Ye Tianchen is someone deeply blessed, a rebellious demon capable of obtaining five of the Ancient Ten Divine Swords, which is extraordinarily surprising, even shocking.

The Ancient Ten Divine Swords are renowned within the entire Martial Arts World; everyone knows of their existence. Acquiring even one, and wielding it freely, wouldn’t necessarily make you a Supreme Strong, yet dominating a region would surely be possible.

The origins of the Ancient Ten Divine Swords remain a mystery, yet their strongest legend centers around the "Tongtian Taoist," also known as the Tongtian Sect Master of Earth’s secular world—a true powerhouse. He managed to acquire four ancient divine swords, forcibly refining them into a Sword Array, daringly naming this array "Extermination Immortal."

The Extermination Immortal Sword Formation isn’t just a myth within Earth’s secular world; it remains legendary within the entire Martial Arts World. To name something "Extermination Immortal" must mean something extraordinary, capable of even slaying immortals—what level of mastery is that? Although Emperor figures in the Martial Arts World are supremely powerful, they’re not immortals. If the Extermination Immortal Sword Formation can even kill immortal beings, how could Emperor figures stand against it?

Throughout history, even though many formidable Treasures and formations with heaven-traversing capabilities have surfaced in the Martial Arts World, the "Extermination Immortal Sword Formation" remains infamous. Even now, it induces fear in many who mention it!

Refining such a world-shocking Formation with merely four ancient divine swords, reputed to slay immortals; now that Ye Tianchen possesses five ancient divine swords, what immense power could he possibly unleash? How will he fare? Could he, like Tongtian Taoist, fully comprehend and subdue all five ancient divine swords?

"Taie Sword, Fish Intestine Sword, Xuanyuan Sword, Cheng Ying Sword, Zhanlu Sword... I already possess half of the Ancient Ten Divine Swords, yet my knowledge about wielding them is just superficial. What secrets do these ten divine swords entail? What is their true power?" Ye Tianchen gazed at the Cheng Ying Sword and Zhanlu Sword floating before him, frowning to himself. (To be continued.
