In the days that followed, Gu Xixue still came to look for Chen Xuan every day. Their relationship improved by leaps and bounds.
On this day, Gu Xixue looked depressed.
"Chen Xuan, I'm going to Chu Zhou to carry out a mission. I'm afraid I'll have to walk for half a year.”
"You have to take good care of yourself while I'm away. Also, if my sister comes to look for you, don't bother with her. She's prejudiced against you.”
Gu Xixue reminded Chen Xuan.
The two of them lingered in the room for a long time before they officially parted ways.
After Gu Xixue left, Chen Xuan stayed in the villa every day and cultivated in peace.
Now that he was at the peak of level nine, his next step was to break through to level ten.
Level 10 demons were rated as S by the Demon Slayer Division.
However, S-class demon beasts had never appeared since they mutated 300 years ago.
Even the first batch of demons, including Mara, were only at the peak of the ninth rank.
"Perhaps I will become the first level ten demon in this world.”
Chen Xuan thought to himself.
However, he also knew that it was not easy to break through to level 10.
It was a very difficult process to guide the energy that drifted outside the nine heavens into the body.
However, Chen Xuan was not in a hurry. After becoming a demon, his lifespan was far longer than that of ordinary humans.
In theory, a grade-9 demon should be able to live for more than 500 years.
Chen Xuan still had a lot of time to advance to level 10.
Time flew by as he cultivated. In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
During this period, Gu Xixue returned to Qingzhou once to report. After meeting Chen Xuan, she left in a hurry.
According to her, many mutated demons had appeared in Chu Zhou recently, so she was quite busy with her work.
However, it was also because of this that her strength increased rapidly.
Now, he was about to advance to Rank-3.
Demons could hunt humans to obtain human blood essence cultivation. Similarly, after human martial artists killed demons, they could exchange their bodies for rewards from the Nine Provinces Alliance headquarters.
The reward was a potion that could increase a martial artist's strength.
Gu Xixue had killed many demons and obtained a lot of potions.
Before he left, he left a bottle for Chen Xuan, telling him that it could strengthen his body.
In fact, Chen Xuan understood that Gu Xixue hoped that Chen Xuan could have a strong physique and become a martial artist one day.
After all, not to mention the difference in status between martial artists and ordinary people, martial artists were the same as demons and devils. They could increase their lifespan.
A Rank-9 martial artist could live to 500 years old.
If it was an ordinary person, they would only have a lifespan of more than 100 years.
In other words, if Chen Xuan was an ordinary person, Chen Xuan might only be able to accompany Gu Xixue for a short period of time in her life.
This was also the reason why martial artists generally did not choose to mate with ordinary people.
After Gu Xixue left, Chen Xuan tried to refine some of the potion that Gu Xixue had given him.
He discovered that this was something that could increase his body's potential.
It was true that ordinary people could strengthen their bodies after drinking it. However, after martial artists drank it, it could increase the power of their Vitality. It was similar to the way demons devoured blood to replenish their Vitality.
"It seems that martial artists and yaomo are essentially the same.”
Chen Xuan judged in his heart.
In the blink of an eye, another month passed.
When Gu Xixue stood in front of Chen Xuan again, she had already broken through to Rank-3.
Rank-3 martial artists were considered small leaders in the Monster-Slaying Division.
Now, Gu Xixue was managing more than 20 people.
"Chu Zhou is getting more and more unstable. Not only are there more and more humans turning into demons, but there's also a demonic beast that's equivalent to a ninth-grade martial artist. The demonic beast wantonly massacred and attacked humans. Even the director of the Chu Prefecture's Demon Slaying Department was injured.”
Gu Xixue talked about Chu Zhou's experience with a heavy heart.
"Demonic beast?"
Chen Xuan's eyes revealed a hint of curiosity.
In this era, not only would humans mutate into demons, but even wild beasts would become demonic beasts after being selected by the mysterious energy.
However, although demonic beasts had strong physiques, they were not as intelligent and cunning as demons, so they were easy to kill.
According to what Chen Xuan knew, ever since the rise of martial artists, demon beasts were almost extinct.
He didn't expect a grade-9 demonic beast to appear.
"Chu Zhou's Demon Slayer Division's secretary is injured, the Alliance Headquarters might transfer other divisions to take charge of the affairs. I heard that it's very likely that my sister will be sent this time.”
"My sister is about to break through to a ninth-grade martial artist. Among the nine divisions of the Alliance, my sister's strength can be ranked in the top five.”
Speaking of Gu Xiyu, Gu Xixue's face revealed some pride.
After all, Gu Xiyu was considered a legendary figure in the entire Nine Provinces Alliance.
"If my sister is transferred to Chu Zhou, then I can fight side by side with her.”
"Previously, I was only a Rank-1 martial artist and could not help my sister much. Now, I'm very powerful too.”
Looking at Gu Xixue's arrogant look like a little peacock, Chen Xuan could not help but smile.
Because Gu Xixue had a mission, she stayed with Chen Xuan for more than an hour before leaving.
Listening to Gu Xixue's story, Chen Xuan was thinking. It seemed that Chu Zhou was in chaos this time and was very unusual.
On the other hand, Qingzhou was very peaceful after the war between the Monster Race and Demon Race.
Even those who had mutated into demons were killed by the Demon Slayers before they could complete their evolution.
Chen Xuan ignored all of this and only cultivated quietly in the villa.
He did not want to interfere in the war between humans and demons.
If he had heard that a powerful Demon Beast had appeared before, Chen Xuan might have rushed to Chu Zhou to hunt Demon Beasts and increase his strength.
But now, the Vitality Force had little effect on increasing his strength.
"Although a grade nine demon beast is very powerful, it is nothing in my eyes.”
"However, since the Demon Slayer Division's assessment of danger has an S grade, although there are no records in history, there might really be a level ten demon in this world. It was just that he did not know some secret information.”
Chen Xuan knew that whether it was in his previous life or this world, many confidential matters would not be announced to ordinary people.
Although he was already at the peak of the ninth rank, and even the nine great demon lords could not withstand a single blow from him, he could not be arrogant.
Perhaps there was someone stronger than him in the world.
It was better for him to cultivate in the villa and wait until he broke through to level 10 before going out to have fun.
Chen Xuan returned to the villa and sat cross-legged to cultivate.
