It was precisely because they understood Zhenyuan Palace’s attitude that Elder Gao and Elder Lin were reluctant to make this trip. Ye Chen was simply like a clown, delivering himself to be ridiculed, and even bringing disgrace upon Six Paths Sect’s reputation.
Elder Gao and Elder Lin were fiercely loyal to Six Paths Sect. The more they thought about how Ye Chen would disgrace the sect, the angrier they beca, wishing they could tie Ye Chen up and take him back to Six Paths Sect to save face here.
Arriving at the gigantic and magnificent gate of Southern Saint City, radiating vast golden light and illuminating the heavens, Ye Chen saw a group of disciples wearing attire representing Zhenyuan Palace standing at the gate, welcoming guests from all directions. Several elders were also standing there, greeting the visitors with smiles.
But upon seeing Ye Chen and Elder Gao and Elder Lin, the welcoming elders and disciples at the Southern Saint City gate revealed strange smiles with a malicious intent in their eyes.
"Interesting."
Seeing this scene, Ye Chen’s lips curled into a smirk, knowing that the people from Zhenyuan Palace were probably eager to humiliate him, feeling contempt in his heart.
Then, Ye Chen led Elder Gao and Elder Lin to Southern Saint City, where two elders from Zhenyuan Palace approached them.
These two elders from Zhenyuan Palace were dressed luxuriously, full of joy. Today, Zhenyuan Palace had invited guests from all directions, and sects from various regions showed great respect. Zhenyuan Palace basked in glory, and the elders shared in the pride.
One of these elders had a walnut-sized black mole on his face, while the other had flowing long hair, looking as delicate as a woman.
At this mont, looking at Elder Gao and Elder Lin, the long-haired elder from Zhenyuan Palace smiled, "I didn’t expect the two of you to co today; why didn’t Elder Hua Qingguang co?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Elder Gao and Elder Lin’s expressions changed slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in their eyes.
Elder Hua Qingguang and Elder Tian Yunyou of Six Paths Sect were the elders invited to a banquet by Zhenyuan Palace a hundred years ago for the last ti.
After attending that banquet, Elder Hua Qingguang and Elder Tian Yunyou almost died from anger, and upon returning to Six Paths Sect, they declared never to visit Zhenyuan Palace again in their lives.
When the long-haired elder from Zhenyuan Palace ntioned this now, it was clearly a deliberate insult, yet Elder Gao and Elder Lin could not express their anger, feeling incredibly frustrated, increasingly dissatisfied with Ye Chen’s decision to attend the banquet.
At this mont, Elder Hei Zhi, who was standing aside, said to Ye Chen with a strange and sarcastic tone, "What’s the aning of this from Six Paths Sect? Coming supposedly to attend the banquet at our Zhenyuan Palace, but instead of sending disciples, you send a servant?"
Hearing this, Elder Gao and Elder Lin couldn’t help but look at Ye Chen, seeing his Sixth Level of Heavenly God Realm, their faces darkened.
"Esteed elder, I am Ye Chen, Chief Disciple of Six Paths Sect, not a servant."
Ye Chen did not show any anger, looking at the opponent gracefully, and replied with a calm smile.
"Chief Disciple?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Hei Zhi and Elder Changfa burst into laughter, and the disciples of Zhenyuan Palace at the gate of Southern Saint City and even people from other sects who had arrived also laughed heartily.
"Hahaha! Has Six Paths Sect fallen to such a state that a Heavenly God Realm Sixth Level weakling is the Chief Disciple?"
"Still claiming to be a top-tier force one day in the past? I bet it doesn’t even rank among lower-tier sects now. A Heavenly God Realm Chief Disciple, how ridiculous."
"Sigh, why would our sect even invite Six Paths Sect to the banquet? Does Six Paths Sect deserve to be considered our Zhenyuan Palace’s perpetual ally? They’re just here to disgrace our Zhenyuan Palace!"
Murmurs of mockery continued from the guests and Zhenyuan Palace disciples, Elder Gao and Elder Lin’s expressions beca grim, humiliated before even entering Southern Saint City; Zhenyuan Palace had gone too far.
Yet Ye Chen, facing all this, remained calm, a cold glint flickering in his eyes, silently observing these people’s faces.
At this mont, Elder Hei Zhi looked at Ye Chen and feigned an apology, "I’m truly sorry, I didn’t expect your sect’s Chief Disciple to be of Heavenly God Realm, my eyesight must be failing , do proceed."
With a strange smile directed at Ye Chen, Elder Hei Zhi waved him in, while the disciples of Southern Saint City displayed mischievous smiles, occasionally glancing at Southern Saint City’s gate.
"What’s the aning of this?"
Ye Chen squinted his eyes toward Southern Saint City’s gate, realizing there was sothing amiss.
Elder Gao and Elder Lin also noticed sothing peculiar, the gate of Southern Saint City emanating a vast pressure at this point, extrely covertly, impossible to detect without careful examination.
This was Zhenyuan Palace’s sche; they had set an array formation below Southern Saint City, and upon seeing Ye Chen and the two elders of Six Paths Sect approaching, they imdiately activated the array formation.
This formation had no special effects, nor did it possess the Power of Slaughter, but under its influence, anyone stepping under Southern Saint City’s gate would face dreadful pressure.
Zhenyuan Palace wanted to see Six Paths Sect’s people kneel at the gate of Southern Saint City, which would certainly bring great satisfaction to Zhenyuan Palace.
At this mont, realizing sothing was wrong, Elder Gao and Elder Lin’s expressions changed, Elder Gao suddenly grabbed Ye Chen and whispered.
"This gate has issues, don’t enter."
Although Elder Gao’s voice was quiet, none present were ordinary people, clearly hearing it.
And at this mont, Elder Hei Zhi and Elder Changfa frowned; if Ye Chen didn’t step through, their planned spectacle would be unfulfilled.
Just then, in front of the Southern Saint City gate, a Zhenyuan Palace disciple wearing a golden robe, appearing much more prestigious than the others’ black robes, with narrowed triangular eyes, glared at Ye Chen and shouted loudly.
"Ye Chen, don’t you even dare enter our Zhenyuan Palace’s city, believing that as Six Paths Sect’s Heavenly God Realm Chief Disciple, you’re unworthy of entering our Zhenyuan Palace and fearing it might embarrass us!"
Hearing these words, a cold gleam flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes, and Elder Gao and Elder Lin’s deanor erupted, "You scoundrel, what are you saying?"
"Elders, do not be angry, this is rely a matter among juniors."
At this mont, Elder Hei Zhi looked at the golden-robed disciple with admiration, then stepped forward with Elder Changfa, standing in front of Elder Gao and Elder Lin.
Seeing Elder Hei Zhi and Elder Changfa blocking the way, Elder Gao and Elder Lin’s expressions chilled slightly; this was not Six Paths Sect, and if they taught the golden-robed disciple a lesson, they might end up trapped or even killed.
Elder Gao and Elder Lin were intimidated, but Ye Chen raised his brows slightly, looking at the golden-robed disciple.
"Just what do you think gives you the right to say I’m unworthy?"
With Ye Chen’s words, the disciples of Zhenyuan Palace buzzed with surprise. The golden-robed disciple, nad Huang Haowei, was a genius of Zhenyuan Palace, while not as famous as Holy Daughter Feng Yusi, possessed remarkable talent. Ye Chen dared to confront Huang Haowei like this, truly courting death!
"Hmph, what gives you the gall to speak to like this!"
As expected, Huang Haowei heard Ye Chen’s words, and his anger flared, rebuking Ye Chen coldly.
