150 Take the opportunity when you get it
"It allows me to temporarily absorb my opponent's physical strength and use it for myself. That means as long as I am physically fighting, I won't lose unless you manage to finish me in a single strike."
Hearing her words, Fu Chen narrowed his eyes and a chuckle came out of his mouth.
"I guess you won't back down until I take you seriously."
"That's what I planned to do." Xue Le looked at him with a serious gaze and answered.
Fu Chen sighed and a sword appeared in his hand. He tightly gripped the black hilt and the two symbols on the hilt slowly glowed. He raised his sword horizontally, putting his other hand at the sharp end.
"Then, I will get serious."
The next moment, an enormous killing intent broke out. This killing intent accompanied by the sheer energy flowing from the sword pushed his strength to a new level.

[Death Thrust]
When Fu Chen realized that aura, Xue Le gulped down. She understood that he was truly taking this seriously. Her hands trembled slightly not knowing if she could block it or not without using that move.
But, she had to try. Her physical strength has improved a lot and she still had the saint armor. She swing her spear with an intense speed and held the end of the spear with both of her hands.

An intense force flowed out of Fu Chen's sword tip. It moved toward her with an extraordinary speed. At the same time, her spear also released a powerful blast of energy.
Bang!
The collision went wild as it destroyed the land beneath them. It moved around like a hurricane and even destroyed the walls. Chu Yan, Wu Kong, and Lily were pushed to the wall.
The impact was so much that they couldn't bear it. Fu Chen's scales were pierced open. The blood flowed out of his body while Xue Le lost her armor. Fu Chen could no longer stand and fell to his knees.
At this moment, Fu Chen's healing energy and purple qi started working rapidly, regenerating his skin. His dragon scales were lost but he could still regenerate his body without using spiritual energy.
Fu Chen instantly sensed powerful energy and the blazing flames appeared on his sword. He rushed toward the front as the flame on his sword transformed into a head of a dragon.

Xue Le came from above. Her spear was pointing at him while several small meteorites covered in flames dropped toward him as well.
Fu Chen raised his right hand and slashed toward the sky. The flame dragon roared as it engulfed the entire meteorite fall within its flames.
[Blazing Fire Sword Art- Blazing Dragon]
Boom! Whoosh!
Xue Le's body dropped toward the ground from the explosion. Her skin was burned and she seemed to be panting. The gigantic wave of explosion released a powerful impact that dropped to the ground.
Xue Le's eyes narrowed as she tried to curl her body but suddenly, Fu Chen teleported in front of her. Up until now, Fu Chen was rarely using his eye powers.
Suddenly, his sword shone blue. The immense amount of true essence coming out of his sword made the ground shake. He slowly raised his hand as the water flooded out of his sword horizontally.f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

[Forever Flowing River]
Whoosh!
The massive flood of water collide against the blazing flames and the entire surrounding got covered in the fog. After a while, the fog disappeared and the other three rushed toward the middle.
In the middle, Fu Chen was lying on Xue Le's lap with a little exhausted expression.
"Sorry, I need to rest a little." Fu Chen smiled at them and spoke.
"It's okay." Chu Yan nodded.
"Sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn't have used it on you. I just wanted you to prove my strength." Xue Le bit her lips as she spoke.
"Tch! You went easy on him. If I had that power, I would've smashed him underground." Chu Yan snorted. It was the battle that Fu Chen initiated after all. He wasn't going to show mercy.
"You truly are heartless." Fu Chen chuckled and then raised his hand to touch her cheek.
"Don't worry about this. This weakness will disappear soon. Besides, I got a gaze on your strength. For physical battles, you are truly unbeatable. As for the other aspects, we can improve slowly."
Hearing his words, Xue Le smiled but in her eyes, there was a bit of hesitation and sadness. Fu Chen was simply looking at her. He didn't miss it.
"What happened?" Fu Chen asked.
"Isn't it obvious? She is hesitating to ask you for something. She is afraid of disappointing you." Lily landed on her shoulder and spoke.
Hearing her words, Fu Chen sighed. He slowly raised his upper body and sat in front of her.
"Do you still remember when I used all of my savings to hire you for improving my cultivation? Even though I couldn't cultivate at all."
Xue Le bit her lips and nodded.
"At that time, I didn't care about those points. For others, they could even buy them a proper cultivation technique but for me, just standing on the path of cultivation was enough."
"So, I took the risk, investing everything I earned into something that I wasn't even sure would work. Because I believed as long as I work hard and get guided by someone I could awaken my martial spirit."
"But… truth was quite opposite. No matter how hard I work, no matter many bones I break, no matter how much sweat I release, I would have never got a chance to stand on the path of cultivation."
"But when I truly got that opportunity, when someone truly helped me stand on that path, I hesitated as well. I believed that if I follow that someone, I wouldn't be able to prove my words. I wouldn't be happy with all the hard work I did."
"So, I made mistakes. I tried to walk away from the opportunity that was given to me. And, it was all because of pride. I wanted to have pride in my hard work. I wanted to say to the world that I became what I am because of my hard work."
"It was my pride that held me back. But, when I realized that and was taught that as long as I can accept, I will grow even stronger, I gladly accepted. I set aside my pride."
"So, if you want something from me, don't hesitate to ask. If it is something that increases your strength, then I don't have a freaking hesitation to provide you anything you want."
Hearing his words, Lily slowly smiled. She was glad that Fu Chen was able to share so many things with her while giving her motivation.
In this world, those who can't learn to accept the opportunities given to them can never improve.
Xue Le took a deep breath and asked "I want a cultivation technique that allows me to solidify my cultivation just like that cultivation technique which gives you the wood power and dragon power. Of course, it doesn't have to be that. You can give me something else if you have."
For a moment, Fu Chen was stunned. Then the next moment, he burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha! Are you kidding me? That's all? And, you were hesitating so much for just that? Come on, I am your lover. Is that even you need to think to ask?"
Bam!
Suddenly, Xue Le punched him in his face and shouted "It hurts to ask for your help and rely on you to stand beside you, okay? Can't you understand my feelings?
But, Fu Chen instantly pulled her into his arms and looked into her eyes.
"Of course, I understand. But, you have to understand something as well. You are my wife. We might not have been married but you are everything to me. So, anything that belongs to me is yours."
"If we can't even share, how can we ever live together?"
Hearing his words, Xue Le's face turned red. She turned her head and softly spoke.
"Don't use sweet words. I can't argue with you if you do that."
"But, if I can't use these sweet words to you, then do you want me to use them for a random girl in the street?" Fu Chen giggled and asked.
"You dare?" Suddenly, Xue Le's devilish demeanor emerged as she asked.
"I was just kidding. Having you and she is more than enough for me. But, would you accept it? After all, I lost that bet." Fu Chen asked.
Xue Le looked away for a moment and said "As a woman, I don't want to share you with anyone. But, I know you wouldn't love someone who wouldn't truly be worthy of you."
"And, that's why I am training so hard. Because I don't want to lose to anyone no matter who they might be. Whether they are goddesses or fairies or monsters or princesses, I will always be the one walking beside you."
