Xue Dingchuan escaped.
Although Ye Chen didn’t manage to kill Xue Dingchuan, he wasn’t disappointed. When he planned to take action, he had said even if he couldn’t kill him, he would make him lose a layer of skin. This oute counted as achieving his small target.
Xu Yanran and Zhang Yao were noticeably a bit shaken.
They knew Xue Dingchuan was strong, but they hadn’t expected him to be so powerful.
What surprised them even more was... Ye Chen’s strength.
To be precise, Ye Chen had too many techniques!
That exquisite Sword Array, the incredible Ten Great Grotto Heavens and Eight Great Principles, the Strongest Divine Technique of Flesh Dao, the Eternal Golden Body, and the mysterious handprint that countered Xue Dingchuan’s Eternal Night Divine Fist.
"It’s a pity he got away." Zhang Yao said through gritted teeth. It was difficult not to eliminate Xue Dingchuan, this great enemy, but an unexpected turn occurred at the last moment.
"Nothing to regret. Consider this a lesson, dampening his spirits. Next time I encounter him, I’ll just cut him down." Ye Chen said casually.
Xu Yanran and Zhang Yao were somewhat dumbfounded.
Ye Chen’s tone was extraordinarily nonchalant.
They thought Ye Chen was forting them, but in fact, it was his honest thoughts.
This time, when he goes back, he can exchange the Spirit Storage Bead for a drop of Divine Blood with ten percent purity, significantly boosting his Flesh Dao.
In Martial Dao, he is already at the eighth level of reaching the heavens, not far from the Law Phase. If he gets some Divine Power to aid his cultivation, it would be great. Even without divine power, it won’t be long before he breaks through to the Law Phase.
The nine-tier Unique Ultimate Celestial Spirit Seal is the same. He might pick up more divine sense if he’s lucky, but it’s alright if he doesn’t.
The key factor is the Enlightenment Tea Tree inside the Sword Tomb!
Although the Enlightenment Tea leaves don’t directly enhance power, with an increase in insight, it is equivalent to indirectly boosting power!
His insight was already intimidating, and if he continues to enhance it, maybe by chance, he could prehend the strongest skills among the Nine Heavens, Ten Lands, Four Seas, and Eight Desolates?
Aside from that, the Enlightenment Tea leaves could be gifted to others or exchanged for needed resources. Even the Great Emperors would be interested, but this matter should be handled with patience and caution.
Ye Chen understands the principle of "having a treasure is a crime" very well.
In summary.
Soon, he will be able to cut down Xue Dingchuan by himself!
"Sister Yanran, Brother Zhang, who do you think saved Xue Dingchuan?" Ye Chen asked.
Xu Yanran and Zhang Yao exchanged glances but said nothing.
Ye Chen: "Let me answer. It can be confirmed that it was definitely not people from the Ten Thousand Islands Sect. If it were, they wouldn’t need to hide; they’d just charge in. That person’s Spirit Dao is not weak, at least a tenth-tier Celestial Seal Spirit Master.
The Martial Alliance and Body Alliance also have Spirit Masters, but there shouldn’t be many tenth-tier Celestial-tier Spirit Masters.
Thus, it’s basically certain that someone from the Spirit Alliance secretly helped Xue Dingchuan."
Xu Yanran nodded and said, "Without evidence, saying it is useless. When dealing with people from the Spirit Alliance in the future, be more cautious."
Zhang Yao nodded in agreement with Xu Yanran’s words and then looked at Ye Chen, saying, "Ye Chen, are the people you found from the Seventy-Two Islands?"
By now, the reinforcements from the Ten Thousand Islands Sect had been pletely eliminated, and the burly man and the enchanting woman waited on the side, seemingly waiting for Ye Chen to approach.
"Seventy-Two Islands?" Ye Chen had never heard this term before and said, "I’m really not sure, they were people I met along the way. I said I wanted to cut down Xue Dingchuan, and they decided to cooperate with me."
His words were half-truth.
Xu Yanran did not continue to ask.
Zhang Yao didn’t pursue this matter further and instead said, "Now that things are settled here, I’m leaving first. The matters concerning the Enlightenment Tea Tree are of utmost importance."
With Zhang Yao’s departure.
Xu Yanran looked at Ye Chen: "The Seventy-Two Islands are also known as the Seventy-Two Bandits, a force established by seventy-two major bandits who are both righteous and evil. If they are truly from the Seventy-Two Islands, you must be cautious and try not to engage with them deeply."
Ye Chen’s eyes flashed.
To be honest, these guys all have a roguish demeanor, probably indeed from the Seventy-Two Islands.
It looks like... Old Wang must be one of the seventy-two bandits!
"Sister Yanran... I understand."
The serious expression on Xu Yanran’s face suddenly disappeared, and she laughed, saying: "Mu Bai said you are a low-key person, I finally see it. Also, previously you called me Master Aunt, now you call me Sister Yanran. Aren’t you afraid your Master Uncle will confront you about it?"
Ye Chen: "I truly am low-key, if others don’t provoke me, I won’t provoke them.
As for my Master Uncle, it’s not a problem. We in the Spirit Martial faction have always been united like a family.
I’ll call them what I want, but if my Master Uncle is really petty... he can’t beat me..."
Xu Yanran: "..."
"Ye Chen, I have an impolite request."
"Sister Yanran, please say."
"When you impersonated Xue Dingchuan and acquired a piece of Enlightenment Tea, can you give it to me? Rest assured, our Martial Alliance won’t take advantage of you..."
Ye Chen: "Let’s wait until we’re out of the restricted area."
Xu Yanran: "Ye Chen, this matter is of great importance... if you’re worried that the Body Alliance won’t allow it, our Martial Alliance will discuss with the Celestial Cauldron Emperor."
Ye Chen: "...Sister Yanran, I promise you I’ll give it once we’re out of the restricted area."
It’s not that he won’t give it now.
It’s that he chewed it up and swallowed it.
He can’t give it!
Moreover, the Enlightenment Tea Tree is still in the Sword Tomb, and it’s inconvenient to pick it...
Xu Yanran showed a bit of disappointment and said, "Alright then, I won’t pressure you. This is indeed difficult, Ye Chen, I’m leaving first, be careful."
Watching Xu Yanran’s departing figure.
Ye Chen displayed a bitter smile.
There might have been a misunderstanding...
This Master Aunt, just because of his few words, was willing to take the risk of helping him cut down Xue Dingchuan. How significant is gifting a piece of Enlightenment Tea?
Once this ordeal is over, he will definitely give it!
On another note, since Master Uncle Liu Mubai wants to marry, it’s only right for the Spirit Martial faction to provide a bride price!
Can’t let Master Uncle marry into the family and appear subordinate.
The Spirit Martial faction’s face must be kept intact.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen sighed.
As a Master Nephew, he truly has a lot to worry about, including the matter of his Master Uncle getting married.
No longer dwelling on it, Ye Chen’s figure flashed as he flew towards the group sent by Old Wang.
"Young Master Ye, is there anything else to do? Just say the word, we haven’t had enough fun!" The burly man laughed heartily.
The enchanting woman gazed at Ye Chen, her eyes glistening, seeming to keep him in her thoughts...
Ye Chen smiled and cupped his hands: "You’ve all helped me immensely, yet I don’t even know your names, which is not appropriate. How about..."
Before Ye Chen could finish, the enchanting woman giggled and said: "Young Master Ye only needs to know that we were sent by Old Wang."
Ye Chen cupped his hands again and said, "In that case, I’ll find time to visit the lighthouse established by Old Wang, and we can have a joyous drink together.
In addition, this battle zone will quickly settle down, and with the absence of order constraints, the Ten Thousand Islands Sect’s retaliation will certainly be terrifying, so you all should find a safe place to stay."
The matter of the Enlightenment Tea Tree disappearing should likely cause a chain reaction, so it’s time to withdraw when necessary!
