After they arrived at the Southern Forest, Chen Li did not waste any more time relaxing, but he immediately went to find the soul realm beasts and fight with them.
“Is he always like that, Sister Xian’er?” Di Chen asked as she monitored Chen Li with her senses, and Di Jing also did the same with her big sister.
Feng Xian’er shook her head at her. “Even though there are no cultivators in our realm, there are many people with special abilities, and they are very strong compared to ordinary humans. As for my hubby, he didn’t have any power in the past, and some young masters from prominent families often bullied him. Besides, their parents killed his father, and they also destroyed his family.”
“Huh?” The Di Sisters were shocked to hear that.
Feng Xian’er sighed softly and looked towards the distance. “After my hubby became a cultivator, he didn’t want to experience those kinds of things anymore. Moreover, his women are quite numerous now, so he keeps forcing himself to train to become strong; only then can he protect us.”
“I see.” Di Chen didn’t expect that Chen Li had such a past. ‘No wonder he decided to become a dual cultivator, for dual cultivation is indeed the fastest way to become strong, and he even practiced that hard.’
On the other hand, Di Jing did not say anything, and she continued to monitor Chen Li as she lay beside Hui Ling, but she was also quite amazed by his persistence in training. However, she raised her eyebrows after the gray wolf told her something about him, and she then turned to look at her in disbelief. ‘Is that true? Do you really smell the smell of a dragon from him?’
Hui Jing nodded to her and told Di Jing some other things about Chen Li, and her expression looked shocked after hearing that, so she then turned to Feng Xian’er.
Knowing her thoughts, Feng Xian’er smiled at her, but she neither confirmed nor denied the information Hui Jing had given her.
Hearing the sounds of Chen Li’s battle, Xuanyuan Feng’er’s spirits lit up. “Mother, I don’t want to lose to Brother Chen, and I will also go fight with those beasts.”
Xuanyuan Wan’er nodded to her. “Even so, you have to be careful, especially since there are many beasts much stronger than you in this forest.” .𝒄𝒐𝒎
“Yes, Mother.” Xuanyuan Feng’er immediately went to the outer periphery of the forest, where the beasts whose strength was equal to hers were located.
Di Chen then asked Xuanyuan Wan’er. “Aren’t you going to train like them?”
“No.” Xuanyuan Wan’er shook her head. “I have no interest in fighting the beasts in this forest, especially since they are not my opponents.”
The Di Sisters were shocked to hear her answer, especially since they knew that Xuanyuan Wan’er’s cultivation was still at the 1st Stage Foundation Realm like her daughter’s, and many of the beastis in that forest were much stronger than her.
As for Feng Xian’er, the Di Sisters are not too surprised because her cultivation base has reached the 5th Stage Core Realm, and they can also feel that her aura is much stronger than theirs, so they are sure that she can easily deal with those beasts, especially since she herself is also a beast.
Seeing their expressions like that, Feng Xian’er immediately told them. “Even though Wan’er’s cultivation is still at the 1st Stage Foundation Realm, her sword skills are already very high, and she is very experienced in fighting.”
“Really?” Di Chen couldn’t believe it.
“Haha.” Feng Xian’er laughed and said to her. “Sister Chen, you can try sparring with Wan’er without using your cultivation, and you will definitely know her prowess in swordsmanship.”
Di Chen nodded in agreement and got up from her seat. “Let’s spar, Sister Wan’er.”
“All right.”
Xuanyuan Wan’er agreed without hesitation, and they began to fight using sword techniques. However, Di Chen was shocked because she was continuously pushed back by her attacks, and she didn’t even have the chance to counterattack at all. ‘How is this possible? I’ve been practicing swordsmanship for so long, and grandpa also always says that I’m talented in swordsmanship, but I’m helpless in front of her.’
Even Di Jing was shocked to see their fight, and she didn’t expect that Xuanyuan Wan’er could continue to suppress her big sister. ‘Is she really a descendant of the Xuanyuan Clan? Although her sword technique was similar to the sword technique of that clan, it was also different at the same time. I remember very well that Big Sis Ling Yan’s sword technique was very violent, but her sword technique was actually very gentle, and her every movement was like a person dancing.’
Feng Xian’er smiled seeing their fight, and she asked Di Jing. “Wan’er’s movements are very beautiful, right?”
“Yes.” Di Jing nodded to her. “I’ve met many swordsmen, but I’ve never met a swordsman like her. Her attacks seemed gentle but also hard at the same time, and she was like a sword dancer.”
“In the past, Wan’er was a war general, and her nickname was Sword Dancing General.” Di Jing turned to her in surprise, and Feng Xian’er explained it to her. “Although she still looks young, she is actually more than five hundred years old, and that’s because I gave her my bloodline.”
Upon hearing that, Di Jing could no longer contain her curiosity, and she asked her directly. “Sister Xian’er, what kind of beast are you exactly?”
“Hehe.” Feng Xian’er giggled at her expression, and she then summoned her familiar, which was a little fire phoenix.
Di Jing and Hui Ling gasped in shock after they saw that, and she then pointed at the phoenix figure. “You… are… a phoenix.”
“Yes, I am indeed a phoenix.” Feng Xian’er replied as she smiled, and her familiar flew into the sky.
On the other hand, Hui Ling looked at Feng Xian’er with great respect. After all, the phoenix was a mythical beast, and she was just an ordinary wolf, so their levels were too different.
Di Jing sighed heavily; she then rubbed Hui Ling’s head. “No wonder she is respectful towards you; it turns out you are a phoenix.”
“Honestly, I myself only found out that I was a phoenix a while ago, and I have always thought that I was an ordinary human.” Feng Xian’er replied with a chuckle. “If my hubby hadn’t met his master and senior sisters, I would never have become a cultivator, and I would never have known that I was a beast.”

After they sparred for quite a while, Di Chen finally gave up, for she was completely helpless in the face of Xuanyuan Wan’er’s attacks. “Hah… Hah… Your abilities with the sword have opened my eyes, Sister Wan’er. During this time, I always felt that my sword skills were already very good, but my abilities were too mediocre if compared to yours.”
“You don’t need to be like that.” Xuanyuan Wan’er replied as she shook her head. “Your proficiency with the sword is actually quite good, but you are still very inexperienced in life-and-death battles, and I have been through hundreds or even thousands of wars.”
Di Chen nodded in understanding. “In that case, I want to spar with you every day, Sister Wan’er.”
“Okay.” Xuanyuan Wan’er replied with a nod of approval.
Sometime later, Xuanyuan Feng’er had finished her training, and she returned to the camp with several of the rabbit beasts she had hunted earlier.
.
.

On the other hand, Chen Li still wasn’t satisfied with his training, even though he had killed so many beasts in the Core and Soul Realms, and his body was already drenched in sweat and blood.
Meanwhile, three female spirits sat together on a large tree branch, and their eyes continued to follow Chen Li’s movements.
“If our master can maintain this mentality, he will definitely become strong quickly.” Xiao Hei said as she smiled faintly.
Xiao Kong’er nodded in agreement. “If I look closely, Little Master is more diligent in training than Emperor Long.”
“Can’t help it, right?” Xiao Huoli said to them. “After all, Chen Li is a human, and Emperor Long is a true dragon, so he doesn’t have as many advantages as him. Moreover, he has already experienced near death once, so he definitely doesn’t want to be in that situation again, especially since there will be many people who will be sad if he dies.”
“You are one of them, right?” Xiao Kong’er and Xiao Hei asked at the same time.
Xiao Huoli’s face flushed red at their questions, but she nodded at them. “I will be sad if Chen Li dies, so I will never let him die. Moreover, not only me, but even Big Sis Shijian will definitely be very sad, for she has been waiting for the Ancient Long Wang to return for so long.”
The two spirit women couldn’t help but sigh after they heard that, especially since they were almost as old as Xiao Shijian, so they understood very well about her relationship with the Ancient Long Wang.

As dawn approached, Chen Li returned to the tent, but he only found Feng Xianer, who was smilingly waiting for him by the bonfire. While the other four women were already fast asleep in the tent, and Hui Ling slept with them.
Feng Xian’er then stood up and approached her husband. She then took him to the riverside and took off their clothes. “Let me help you clean up, hubby.”
