Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 798 - 797: A Night Visit to Earth Demon Peak

```

"Quite interesting, it seems that the so-called Saintess of this Ancient Sect does not truly wish to marry Qin Yuan. With this in mind, perhaps it’s possible to keep the Ancient Sect from getting involved in this matter."

Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

If an offense against the Ancient Sect can be avoided, then it’s best not to offend them.

However, the specific situation still needs to be investigated.

Soon, Qin Yuan took the woman named Qing Yu and whisked her away.

Xu Ping’an watched their departing figures, contemplative.

"Junior Brother, what are you thinking about? You couldn’t possibly have taken a fancy to that Ancient Sect’s Saintess, could you? You should stop entertaining such thoughts, she is an Immortal Emperor Realm powerhouse, her status supremely revered; it’s best not to harbor other intentions." Song Yan immediately advised on the side.

"Sister, what are you talking about? How could I possibly take an interest in her?" Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

Although he took it lightly, Song Yan did say something accurate.

The Saintess of this Ancient Sect had indeed reached the cultivation of the Immortal Emperor Realm, and what’s more, she was at the Second Layer of that realm.

Not only that, he felt a rather familiar sensation emanating from this Ancient Sect’s Saintess.

But it wasn’t the feeling of recognition, rather a resonating sensation with her physique.

This Saintess from the Ancient Sect appeared to have Thunder Attribute physique, as just now his Chaotic True Thunder had stirred slightly.

This made Xu Ping’an curious — what kind of physique did this woman have that could resonate with his own Chaotic True Thunder?

Seeing Xu Ping’an respond like this, Song Yan said no more.

Following that, Xu Ping’an and the others were arranged by the disciples of the Myriad Demons Sect to stay in a small courtyard.

During this process, there weren’t any conflicts.

But they did encounter more than a few disdainful glances from the Myriad Demons Sect disciples, clearly looking down on a small power like the Lieyang Sect.

However, with the cautious and circumspect character of Li An’s master and the others, they were quite unlikely to provoke any trouble.

"Master, why has our Lieyang Sect been invited to attend the Myriad Demons Sect Young Master’s wedding this time?" Xu Ping’an asked curiously.

Song Yan also looked at her master with curiosity, clearly also interested in this question.

Their Lieyang Sect was merely a small force of three to four hundred people; by rights, they shouldn’t qualify for an invitation from the Myriad Demons Sect.

Yet this time, their Lieyang Sect had received an invitation, which piqued their curiosity.

The Sect Leader of the Lieyang Sect, Han Lie, smiled and said, "Actually, our Lieyang Sect wouldn’t have had the opportunity, but as it turns out, your grandmaster — also my master — once saved an elder of the Myriad Demons Sect. Therefore, that elder sent out an invitation, and it’s said that the Myriad Demons Sect also intends to hold an exchange competition on this occasion. I thought it would be good for you to broaden your horizons, so we came."

"I really want to witness the strength of these major Sect disciples; I’ve heard they are all very strong."

Song Yan was somewhat excited. A sparring competition held by a major Sect like the Myriad Demons Sect was bound to be thrilling, and they could learn a lot.

Xu Ping’an looked at the excited Song Yan and felt somewhat amused.

These major forces indeed have many powerful disciples, but not all are geniuses.

There are also many ordinary disciples with only Seventh or Eighth Rank strength, and he saw quite a few of such disciples along the way.

Those who have reached the Tenth Rank are basically considered geniuses.

As for the Eleventh Rank, those are indeed once-in-an-era talents.

And those who have reached the power of the Immortal Emperor Realm, they are phenomenally rare geniuses.

"You should take a good look this time, it can broaden your horizons, which will be very beneficial for your future cultivation," Han Lie said with a smile.

Song Yan nodded repeatedly. She grew up in the Lieyang Sect and had seldom ventured out. She had long wanted to see the outside world and now saw this as the perfect opportunity to observe carefully.

As for Xu Ping’an, his mind was somewhat unsettled, and after chatting briefly with them, he returned to his room.

```

However, Xu Ping’an quickly transformed into a lingering afterimage and disappeared from the room.

The wedding was to be held in three days, and before that, he needed to gather enough intelligence.

The only way to obtain information was to investigate on his own.

Xu Ping’an moved like a black shadow, swiftly weaving through the night.

Along the way, he easily avoided some of the disciples on guard, as most of the patrolling disciples had cultivations of less than the Tenth Rank.

Even the very few Tenth Rank disciples or elders struggled to detect Xu Ping’an’s figure.

From time to time, Immortal Sense swept across the area, but each time Xu Ping’an used the Demon Elephant Tower to directly shield himself.

With a divine artifact like the Demon Elephant Tower, it was impossible to be discovered by anyone with a cultivation below the Immortal Emperor Realm.

Thus, Xu Ping’an successfully reached the depths of the Myriad Demons Sect.

It must be said that the Myriad Demons Sect covered a vast area, the entire Sect alone occupying more than a dozen mountain peaks.

Between each peak were thousands of large halls, making it extremely prosperous.

Finding suitable intelligence among so many grand halls was no easy task.

Therefore, Xu Ping’an decided to start with the woman named Qing Yu that he had seen during the day.

Although the other party was a strong contender in the Immortal Emperor Realm and easily detected, there was no other choice at the moment.

The task of the Artifact Divine Sect was to defeat Qin Yuan publicly within three days, and to retreat completely unharmed.

Otherwise, he couldn’t make it into the top ten of the genius list.

So, he must find out before then, which power from an Ancient Sect was about to form an alliance through marriage with the Myriad Demons Sect.

"That woman seemed to have gone to Earth Demon Peak, one of the three core peaks of the Myriad Demons Sect, so I have to be extremely careful," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

His figure, like a ghostly shadow, rapidly approached the Earth Demon Peak.

The three core peaks of the Myriad Demons Sect were Heavenly Demon Peak, Earth Demon Peak, and Human Demon Peak. Among them, Heavenly Demon Peak was where the Sect Leader and some top-level powerhouses of the Myriad Demons Sect resided.

Earth Demon Peak, on the other hand, was home to a core group of disciples and some Inner Sect Elders of the Sect.

Human Demon Peak was the dwelling and cultivation place for Inner Sect Disciples.

As a core disciple of the Sect, Qin Yuan naturally resided on Earth Demon Peak.

"Swoosh!"

Xu Ping’an landed on Earth Demon Peak like a phantom.

Compared to other peaks, Earth Demon Peak was sparsely populated, but the security was much tighter.

The patrolling disciples there were at least of the Ninth Rank, and from time to time they inspected the Immortal Talisman restrictions.

However, none of these posed a difficulty for Xu Ping’an.

Before long, Xu Ping’an found the residence of the three women he had seen during the day.

It was in a very quiet bamboo forest courtyard in the deepest part of Earth Demon Peak.

Besides the three women from the day, Qin Yuan was also there.

And it seemed like they were talking about something in the courtyard.

Xu Ping’an moved closer silently, wanting to hear what they were discussing.

Soon, he was hidden in the shadows, and could hear everything being said in the courtyard loud and clear.
