That ant this technique held the potential for evolution into sothing nearly divine.
Of course, Ye Chen already cultivated the Swallowing Origin Art, a supre technique beyond most heaven-tier arts.
But this Heavenly Serpent Art would be perfect for those of serpentine lineage.
As he pondered, two figures surfaced in his mind .... Qing Lin, with her mixed serpent-human bloodline, and the Queen dusa of the desert.
Both won were destined to join his side one day.
When the ti ca, this technique would be an ideal gift ..... a perfect use for such a rare reward.
Next, Ye Chen's focus turned to a small, diamond-shaped crystal, clear as glass.
Hidden Spirit Stone: Allows the user to freely conceal their Dou Qi presence and spiritual aura at will.
Ye Chen nodded, satisfied. "This will be useful."
With this stone, he could adjust or completely suppress his aura ..... appearing as a re Dou Master if he wished, or even masking his presence entirely.
It would let him move freely without attracting unwanted attention from powerful cultivators.
"My progress lately has been a bit too fast. With this, I won't need to worry about causing too much of a stir," he mused.
Then, his gaze shifted to the next prize ..... a massive violet-winged beast resting within the system space.
Violet Demon Roc: Tier Six high-rank flying magical beast.
Its wings spanned tens of ters, and its form radiated wild strength.
Compared to the Purple Lightning Mink and the Spiritfla Cat, it was far larger and built for speed.
"With this, long-distance travel will be a breeze."
Riding a Tier Six flying beast .... even in the Central Plains, where countless strong cultivators gathered .... was a mark of prestige few could match.
Finally, Ye Chen picked up the last reward: a familiar round pill, faintly glowing with energy.
Basic Puppet Pill: Allows control over a target of Emperor-rank strength or below.
A knowing smile touched his lips. "This again, huh?"
The last ti he had used this pill, he'd successfully taken control of Ling Ying, Xiao Xun'er's forr bodyguard.
"This ti… who should I use it on?"
Within the Jia Ma Empire, only a handful of people reached the Dou Emperor realm .....such as the royal guardian Jia Xingtian, the Alchemist Association's president, and the Ice Emperor Hai Bodong.
After a mont's thought, Ye Chen's eyes narrowed slightly.
If I had to choose, Jia Xingtian would be the best option.
If things ever turn sour with the royal family, having him under control would save a lot of trouble."
Satisfied with his plan, Ye Chen closed the system space with a faint smirk.
Everything was falling neatly into place.
The mont Ye Chen descended into the misty valley, a familiar fragrance drifted through the air light, clean, and tinged with herbs.
It was the scent that always lingered around Xiao Yixian.
His silver wings folded as he landed softly upon the damp grass.
The valley was silent except for the rustling leaves and the soft hum of spiritual energy that filled the air.
Across the clearing, Xiao Yixian stood in her white dress, looking ethereal amidst the drifting fog.
Her face was calm, yet her eyes trembled when she saw him.
"Xian'er…"
Ye Chen took a slow step forward. His voice was low, warm, carrying a note of pain.
Xiao Yixian's lips parted slightly, but she said nothing.
She simply stood there, fingers curling against the hem of her sleeve, her emotions swirling beneath that fragile calm.
"I told you not to follow ." Her tone was soft, but her eyes glistened faintly.
Ye Chen gave a faint smile. "And I told you before ..... wherever you go, I'll find you."
The silence that followed was heavy with unspoken feeling.
The mist curled between them, like a living thing trying to keep them apart.
Finally, Xiao Yixian sighed, lowering her gaze. "Why must you make it harder for both of us? You already have a wife. You shouldn't have to chase ."
Ye Chen's heart ached at her words. He took another step closer until he stood only a few feet away.
"Because I can't pretend what happened between us ans nothing," he said quietly. "Even if fate is cruel, I won't abandon you."
Her eyes lifted to et his — clear, sorrowful, and touched with warmth. "Ye Chen…"
