Ye Tianchen never expected that on the main peak of Zhongnan Mountain, "Taiyi Mountain", there would be such a mysteriously eerie place. If it’s truly as the local tour guide described, even the power of an entire nation wouldn’t be enough to develop this area. Then, Ye Tianchen could only think of one possibility: there must be so kind of powerful force on Zhongnan Mountain, most likely the power of martial artists!
It’s important to know that Earth was once a flourishing world for cultivation. Over ti, society evolved to separate the Mortal World and the Ancient Martial World. The bygone era of cultivation was Earth’s thriving era, indistinguishable between the Mortal World and the Ancient Martial World. Indeed, in the entire Martial Arts World, both were interconnected. However, because Earth encountered certain issues, it evolved into the current state. Great Divine Ability Users, in order to preserve Earth’s last remaining spiritual energy, used powerful formations to divide Earth into three major Ancient Martial Worlds. Therefore, the once interconnected Mortal World and Ancient Martial World must have so traces left by martial artists, perhaps even so powerful inheritances and formations. Does Zhongnan Mountain have any of this?
Regardless of whether it does, Ye Tianchen decided to uncover the truth, for it was simply too bizarre. Not only couldn’t China’s governnt develop this area, but even when he deployed his powerful divine thought to explore, he couldn’t see the road ahead clearly—it was all hazy. This left Ye Tianchen perplexed—how could this be? Given his cultivation realm and formidable energy, it was impossible not to detect so information; there must be sothing amiss!
During the day, Ye Tianchen and Liu Rui visited nurous places. Zhongnan Mountain is quite extensive, although so areas have roads built, housing, and dining options are resolved here. Yet, many areas remain in their pristine state—one, because the primitive scenery is exceptionally beautiful, and two, due to certain reasons, the nation cannot develop them and can only maintain their current state!
The entire day, Ye Tianchen and Liu Rui truly enjoyed their sightseeing—it was genuine tourism. During their travels, they inquired people—be they tourists or locals—hoping to find so clues about Yong Chun Tai, but to no avail!
Night soon fell, and this ti Ye Tianchen and Liu Rui didn’t get drunk. Though they drank last night, nothing untoward happened between the lone man and woman. Yet, it was indeed awkward, and both had ntally prepared themselves. If they drank again this second night, then it would be deliberate!
At the mountain top of Taiyi Mountain, Ye Tianchen and Liu Rui found a pleasant spot, brewed tea, and leisurely chatted while sipping. This day, they visited several places. In the end, they decided to stay atop Taiyi Mountain, as it is the main peak of Zhongnan Mountain, and there are plenty of entertainnt options. Of course, there’s another reason—Ye Tianchen insisted on staying another night, as he had certain plans!
"Look, that star is truly beautiful!" Liu Rui glanced up at the starry sky, smilingly remarked.
Ye Tianchen also glanced up, responding, "Yes, the night sky is stunning; it’s rare to have leisure ti to admire it!"
"You vanished for ten years, and I’m curious about where you went and what kind of life you led during those years," Liu Rui asked, with a curious look at Ye Tianchen.
"Hehe, so things are better left unknown. There are too many unknowns in this world, and knowing them doesn’t bring any benefit—it’s better to be unaware for more ease!" Ye Tianchen laughed.
"Alright, since you’re unwilling to share, I won’t push you. Thank you for accompanying on this trip!" Liu Rui said with a slight smile.
"Isn’t that being too formal? In these past ten years, I wouldn’t know how to repay you for all you’ve done for the Ye family!" Ye Tianchen shook his head, smiling.
"Repay? If I was looking for repaynt, I wouldn’t have done all this. In life, we rarely have monts to choose, driven by emotions!" Liu Rui sipped her tea thoughtfully.
Ye Tianchen was a bit taken aback; he hadn’t expected Liu Rui to have such profound insights into life, her words containing a philosophy akin to the great Tao. Could it be that Liu Rui has a talent for cultivation?
Without responding verbally, Ye Tianchen simply smiled, lifted his teacup, and glanced skywards at the brightest star. However, upon his second look, he was stunned, even a bit shocked. He distinctly felt that the position of the brightest star he first observed had changed significantly—this speed of movent was exceptionally swift!
What is going on? In the blink of an eye, the brightest star in the sky had shifted such a great distance—it’s unbelievable! If Ye Tianchen hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed it, even if a Great Divine Ability User or a powerful martial artist had used so technique. To move this star so quickly would be an incredibly difficult feat, right?
"Look at the brightest star; do you notice any change?" Ye Tianchen asked, looking at Liu Rui sipping tea.
Liu Rui glanced up at that star, smiling, "It’s still so beautiful, what change could there be?"
Ye Tianchen was astonished at her response; the star he saw had evidently moved a significant distance in the sky. Yet, when asking Liu Rui, she seed completely unaware—how could this be?
"Oh, nothing. Just feel tonight the star seems brilliantly bright!" Ye Tianchen laughed.
In the next mont, though Ye Tianchen sat across from Liu Rui, his powerful divine thought soared toward the sky and reached for the star. Though Ye Tianchen knew his divine thought couldn’t possibly reach outside Earth to that star, it could at least get closer for clearer observation!
Divine Thought is an ethereal entity. When Ye Tianchen’s divine thought probed, he realized the brightest star continued moving towards the Taiyi Mountain’s rear mountains, incredibly swiftly. Normally, it would remain unnoticed, unvalued. If not for him being a martial artist with great divine thought power, he wouldn’t have detected this. What further astounds Ye Tianchen is this brightest star is moving towards Taiyi Mountain’s rear—the very spot he toured with the local guide today. The mysterious Taiyi Mountain rear, the mysterious star—is there an inevitable link between them? Ye Tianchen couldn’t help pondering this.
"Hey, hey, what’s wrong?" Liu Rui saw Ye Tianchen staring blankly at the sky and called out.
"Oh, nothing, it’s getting late, shall we return to rest?" Ye Tianchen snapped out of it, smiling.
Liu Rui glanced at Ye Tianchen, didn’t say much, and simply followed him back to the hotel from last night. When entering the lobby, Liu Rui approached the front desk, asking, "Excuse , are there any available rooms?"
"I’m sorry, there’s none available!" the front desk clerk shook her head.
Ye Tianchen glanced at Liu Rui, dejectedly remarking, "See? I told you it’s already full—you thought I was lying? Am I such a vile person?"
"Who knows?" Liu Rui glared at Ye Tianchen.
"If you ca last night, there were plenty of rooms available!" chid in the front desk clerk.
In an instant, Liu Rui’s mind buzzed, emotion surged, clenching her fists tightly, she lowly growled, "Ye Tianchen..."
When Liu Rui turned to look at Ye Tianchen, she found him already inside the elevator, closing the door. She rushed over, seemingly itching to give him a beating. As for Ye Tianchen, he had endless excuses, helpless before what might be a deliberate setup by the clerk. Clearly, when checking in yesterday, only one room remained, yet the clerk’s claim of many rooms from the night before was inciting Liu Rui’s wrath—turning Ye Tianchen into the kind of contemptible scoundrel who takes advantage of a drunk woman!
Just as Ye Tianchen entered the room, Liu Rui charged in, her cute face seriouly retaining a fierce deanor, firmly clenching her fists, scolding, "You liar, you must have sched this—it’s despicable!"
"Hey, I... when I ca to book last night, there was definitely only one room available. This clerk is purposely setting up!" Ye Tianchen wailed in frustration.
"Purposely setting you up? Is there a need? Does she have a grudge against you? Surely you’ve plotted this long ago. Tell , did you do anything despicable to last night?" Liu Rui gritted her teeth.
"No, no, definitely not—I swear, I assure you!" Ye Tianchen hurriedly raised his right hand.
"No way—unless you explain last night satisfactorily, you and I are far from done!" Liu Rui lunged at Ye Tianchen, who quickly evaded. Naturally, he wouldn’t bicker seriously with Liu Rui, a young woman—it would be too unmanly! (To be continued.
