Is it wrong to want to marry a weapon?

The hatch was pushed open.

Lu Chan narrowed her pale purple eyes slightly; at this moment, what they saw was a vast city stretching as far as the eye could see, surrounded by clouds.

This is the border of the Divine Sword Continent, Cloud Sword City!

Although it's not as good as Iron Fan Prefecture, it's still countless times stronger than the Northern Smoke Realm...

And deeper within the layers of clouds...

It is a continent that stretches as far as the eye can see, and is even many times larger than China.

The Divine Sword Continent is not a state, but a complete continent. Therefore, its vastness cannot be described by terms like state or boundary.

Cloud Sword City is located on the northern border of the Divine Sword Continent, so if you want to enter the Divine Sword Continent, you must switch to the airship of Cloud Sword City.

Inside the airship station:

Upon seeing the arrival of the emperor...

The ticket seller was slightly startled. After seeing the two people's faces clearly, she was even more amazed and couldn't help but exclaim excitedly:

"Gentlemen, since you are emperors, you must want to go to the core area of ​​the Divine Sword Continent, Divine Sword City, right?"

"The ticket for the airship that goes directly to Divine Sword City is 10 Super Grade Spirit Embryos!"

"Of course, if you want to use the VIP lounge, it will cost 30 Super Grade Spirit Embryos~~~"

Upon hearing the exorbitant price, Lu Chan didn't even blink before handing over sixty top-grade spirit embryos.

As the newlywed prince consort of the City of Divine Marriage, she had a large sum of dowry stored in her pocket.

Lu Chan came prepared this time!

Divine Sword City...

It is the absolute center of the Divine Sword Continent.

Unlike other holy sites, the four second-grade holy sites of Divine Sword City—Divine Firmament Sword Palace, Taiyin Rain Pavilion, September Cherry Blossom Sword Court, and Starry Sky Gate Pass—are all located next to each other, in the four corners of Divine Sword City.

It's like an academy city in a small realm, a city that's almost entirely filled with weapon-refining academies.

Therefore, the prices of goods and housing in Divine Sword City are all ridiculously expensive; the most outrageous point is that these four holy sites of swordsmanship do not have fixed members. As long as you pay today, you can go to any holy site to comprehend swordsmanship or seek instruction.

Today I went to the Divine Firmament Sword Palace to learn swordsmanship, and tomorrow I can continue to the Cherry Blossom Sword Court to learn swordsmanship.

If you have money, you can visit all four holy sites in a single day!

Many foreign sword emperors arrived with grand and magnificent ideals, but the cruel reality is that... once they entered Divine Sword City, they might not even last a few months before their money was completely depleted.

By then, aside from providing "limited-time Daoist companion services," they will probably have no choice but to give up their dream of comprehending the Dao of the Sword and return to their hometown to guard the territory.

This is the wondrous sight created by the large number of weapon refiners from outside the Divine Sword Continent.

The holy land doesn't need that vague sense of belonging at all; all it needs is someone willing to pay...

Listen to Lu Chan's popular science.

A hint of curiosity also flickered in Zhu Yanxiang's peach-pink eyes.

This is an airship emblazoned with cloud motifs. In the VIP area, a noblewoman dressed in elegant attire and wearing a small top hat is flipping through a newspaper.

[Official Gazette of Divine Sword City, Latest Issue:]

"The artifact Crystal revived six months ago, which may attract a malicious divine war from the artifact Third Messenger?"

"According to rumors, many of the direct descendants of Shenzhou are on their way to the Divine Sword Continent; the team members of the four holy lands also harbor fighting spirits against the direct descendants of Shenzhou and have all chosen to go into seclusion."

"Is it confirmed that a direct descendant of the Divine Sword Clan will participate in the next Divine Sword Competition?"

Between the main force of the second-tier holy land team and the direct descendants of Shenzhou, who is stronger...?

It has always been a popular topic!

However, there is no doubt that in the Divine Sword Continent, where the concept of "aristocratic families" does not exist, everyone is still full of strong curiosity about the combat strength of the direct descendants of the Divine Continent.

As she flipped through the newspaper, the noblewoman couldn't help but scoff, "What kind of direct descendant of the Central Plains is this? They're just a bunch of pampered brats, aren't they?"

"Weren't those divine weapon refiners they produced created by using the resources of their entire families?"

As a member of the main team of the September Cherry Blossom Sword Court participating in this year's Divine Sword Competition, she didn't have any good feelings towards those "protégés of the Central Plains" who were advertised in the newspapers.

"Clatter, clatter, clatter~~~" As she turned the pages, the noblewoman suddenly heard footsteps coming from the corridor.

She looked up with a hint of curiosity.

However, when the two beautiful girls walked towards them, they immediately held their breath and became focused.

what the hell! ?

How could there be such a beautiful girl in the world...?

She seemed completely stunned until the two sat down next to her, at which point she snapped out of her shock.

Are they friends...?

The noblewoman, confident in her high status and wearing a small top hat, couldn't help but strike up a conversation: "Miss, may I ask where you came from on the Divine Sword Continent? Are you going to Divine Sword City to study?"

Zhu Yanxiang hadn't spoken yet.

Lu Chan spoke first, saying, "We came from the Northern Smoke Realm, which is quite far from here."

"The Northern Smoke Realm...? Never heard of it."

The noblewoman's eyes darted around a few times.

He thought to himself, "Since it's a place I've never heard of, aren't they just two village girls?"

So she tentatively asked, "Are you two friends?"

"No, we are Daoist partners." Upon hearing Lu Chan's indifferent explanation, the noblewoman immediately became distraught.

Well, that's it, there's no chance now.

She couldn't understand how these two stunningly beautiful girls could end up as a couple.

Isn't this self-produced and self-consumed, like the phoenix eating the golden crow's flesh?

Couldn't they have split into two couples and given the ordinary woman more opportunities to pursue the fairy?

Soon, Zhu Yanxiang asked with some curiosity, "And you, Miss, where are you from?"

"Me...?"

Knowing they would be curious, the noblewoman said with a touch of pride, "I am a member of the official team of the September Cherry Blossom Sword Court, the Seventeen-Core Emperor! I left Divine Sword City not long ago to carry out a mission. Since the Divine Sword Tournament is about to begin, I've returned to the team for training!"

"Oh, I see," Zhu Yanxiang nodded.

They quickly lost interest in the girl in front of them and looked away.

Seeing this, the noble girl was slightly disappointed, wondering why they weren't shocked... Speaking of which, did these two country girls even know what it meant to be an official member of the September Cherry Blossom Sword Court?

She comes from a super popular team in the Divine Sword Competition!

The noblewoman consoled herself, "They probably haven't even heard of the Second-Rank Holy Land, September Cherry Blossom Sword Court...? Perhaps they don't even know about the Divine Sword Tournament?"

But it doesn't matter, once they get to Divine Sword City, they will naturally know how strong they are!

And at this moment...

Zhu Yanxiang and Lu Chan, who had just sat down, began to whisper to each other using telepathy.

"Lu Chan, in order to participate in the Divine Sword Competition, should we also form a four-person team...? Who should we ask for the remaining two?"

"Let's talk about it when we register."

Lu Chan said nonchalantly.

With their combined strength, they could probably easily grab two low-level novice weapon refiners from the audience on the street.

As he spoke, Lu Chan casually picked up the [Official Newspaper of Divine Sword City, Latest Issue] that was lying on the table in front of him.

But, just after turning the first page...

Her pale purple eyes narrowed to the extreme.

what! ?

Has the divine artifact, the Crystal, awakened?!

Just six months ago...?

Moreover, her awakening attracted the artifact, the Third Messenger, changing the Third Messenger's route in pursuing the artifact, Snow White.

Because Lu Chan and Zhu Yanxiang did not usually use electronic devices to access the internet, they were unaware that this news had already spread throughout China.

This also means...

The Divine Sword Continent may very well become the next battlefield where a divine war breaks out.

However, the weapon refiners of the Divine Sword Continent did not feel much of a sense of crisis. After all, a weapon as terrifying as the Divine Artifact Third Messenger could probably kill the weakest weapon, Crystal, in an instant.

They actually looked forward to the crystal's slumber, so that they could collect the scattered energy from it.

Lu Chan then turned to the next page of the newspaper.

"The potential divine war has already attracted the strongest members of the Divine Continent's direct lineage."

"The Moon-Closing Fairy of the Moon-Sea Consort's Family - Consort Fu"

"Yu Hua, the Ghostly Consort of the Purple Calamity Yu Family"

"Lu Fan and two others from the Lu family of the Sunset Ring are all on their way to Divine Sword City."

"..."

"Lu Fan..."

Upon seeing this name, Lu Chan's heart stirred. He hadn't expected that even she would come to the Divine Sword Continent. What a coincidence!

Moreover, upon seeing the Yuehai Fei family and the Zi Huo Yu family, Lu Chan's pale purple eyes narrowed slightly.

If we say that the relationship between the Fan family of Yingchi and the Lu family of Tianhuan is poor...

The Yu family can be considered the Lu family's sworn enemy. No matter the era, the relationship between the two families has always been extremely hostile.

As for Consort Fei's "Closed Moon Fairy" Consort Fei.

Rumor has it that she is most likely the strongest direct descendant of the Divine Continent in this era; several years ago, even the Three-Faced God Xiao Yi, who had a ten-star combat power rating, could not withstand a single sword strike from Fei Fu!

Her power was so great that even the most loyal followers of the Divine Continent could only look up to her in awe.

"Hey, are you also curious about the direct descendants of Shenzhou...?" Suddenly, the noble girl spoke to Lu Chan again.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chan asked in return, "What's wrong? Do you know anything about them?"

"Uh, no, not at all..."

The noblewoman shook her head, then confidently said, "Don't be fooled by how the newspapers portray the Divine Continent's direct line as so strong and create tension. It's all just a publicity stunt to make the main members of the Four Holy Lands a little nervous and to give the audience in Divine Sword City more anticipation!"

"In my opinion, our captain is definitely much stronger than that so-called 'Fairy of the Moon' Fei Fu!"

"Ha ha……"

Hearing her say that, Lu Chan couldn't help but chuckle softly.

In her previous life, she was an instructor at the Divine Firmament Sword Palace, so how could she not know the level of these team captains?

These children might be comparable to the slightly younger direct descendants, but compared to the top direct descendants of the current Shenzhou, they are completely outmatched...

However, Lu Chan also knew that there was no point in talking about it; once the competition started, the outcome would be clear.

but……

If those three come to Divine Sword City, it might make this year's Divine Sword Competition a little more interesting.

The airship from Cloud Sword City set off.

After flying for five days and five nights, the airship landed on time at the Divine Sword City airship station; when many passengers looked out the window, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

In a blind spot of Divine Sword City, four enormous palaces rise straight into the clouds!

The first palace was a massive palace built directly from a huge cyan sword blade, with a bronze spiral staircase surrounding the blade.
