Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 935: I’ll Save Ye Chen!

  • Next Chapter

Yan Wenwen was deeply moved and wanted to personally escort Ye Chen back to the Great Yan Continent.

Ye Chen laughed.

I see you've tasted the sweetness and can't bear to leave.

Although bringing her along would be fine, Ye Chen still refused. After returning this time, he—now at the peak of Saint King—would head straight to the Heavenly Desire Sect. On the way back, he could properly sort out and consolidate his current strength. He would not indulge any further.

Yan Wenwen looked a little disappointed. She bit her red lips and thought of Yan Ruyu. Still, she spoke softly, "I'll try to persuade Ruyu again later…"

Although Yan Wenwen wanted Ye Chen to be happy, she was also thinking about Yan Ruyu in her heart. Even though she herself had not come for these benefits, Ye Chen's wealth was truly too abundant. He had all kinds of treasures, including methods for severing the Dao and forming imprints. There was even a stalk of Heavenly Position Immortal Herb inside. It was almost enough for her to advance smoothly and without any bottlenecks all the way to the peak of Saint King. Such treatment was something no holy land or ancient clan could provide.

Yan Ruyu's aptitude was far higher than hers. With Ye Chen's help, she would definitely advance even further. She might even fulfill her long-cherished wish ahead of time and surpass her ancestors by achieving the nine-colored divine light.

So Yan Wenwen spoke with genuine sincerity. If Yan Ruyu were willing, it would be a win for everyone. Ye Chen would be happy. She could tie Yan Ruyu to herself and see Ye Chen more often, enjoying his company. And Yan Ruyu would have a better future.

Yan Wenwen felt that Ye Chen would not refuse.

However, Ye Chen smiled when he heard this. He gently stroked Yan Wenwen's mature and alluring white-jade cheek and said with a light laugh, "There's no need for that. Since everything was already made clear a few days ago, let it be. As for you… You don't need to worry either. The deeper connection we had that day was related to Yan Ruyu, but also unrelated…

"The main reason was your mature temperament that moved me… And your eagerness to repay the favor made me see your warm and righteous heart! You have your own charm. Even without Yan Ruyu, I will not forget you! So focus on your cultivation. In the future, I'll take you to the Immortal Realm!"

Ye Chen knew exactly what Yan Wenwen was worried about and spoke gently.

Yan Wenwen's eyes widened. Her eye sockets grew even redder, and her pupils were filled with deep emotion. As a Half-Saint of the Peacock Clan, she held a high position outside. Even though she had a child, she was still the Divine Maiden in the hearts of countless male cultivators. Only in front of the dazzling Ye Chen did she feel inferior, thinking she was not worthy.

She had felt that only Yan Ruyu was a match for him. But now, in Ye Chen's own words, she was in no way inferior to Yan Ruyu. The inferiority in her heart completely vanished. If before there had been elements of long-term loneliness, admiration, worship of the strong, and gratitude, then now, Yan Wenwen's feelings were genuine love from the bottom of her heart.

Previously, if her little Peacock King and Ye Chen had fallen into the water at the same time, Yan Wenwen might have hesitated. But in the end, she would most likely have chosen to save her son. Now, she would choose Ye Chen without the slightest hesitation… As for her son, he was already so grown up. He could fend for himself!

On Ye Chen's side, he could not withstand Yan Wenwen's sudden burst of enthusiasm. They had already reached the city gates. In the end, he could only bring her back onto the immortal ship. Only after several more days did he fly down again. Under Yan Wenwen's reluctant gaze, he boarded the ship and departed.

Before leaving, however, Ye Chen still had someone deliver a portion of the latest treasures obtained from feedback to each of his women. Basically, all his Dao companions could now advance smoothly to the peak of Saint King in a short time.

After doing all this, Ye Chen happily chatted with the Holy Master. He also informed him that on the way back, he would make a trip to the Heavenly Desire Sect.

Feng Baiyu wore an expression that said "you are really ridiculous." Setting out from the Great Yan Continent, he first went to the Heavenly Will Holy Land. After returning, he went to the Heavenly Desire Sect. During his time in the Central Continent, he had not missed the Heavenly Emperor Hall, the Lan Clan, or Myriad Races Immortal City either.

Ye Chen's time management was truly impeccable. Most importantly, even though Ye Chen was so busy, his cultivation had not fallen behind at all. His advancement speed was even more outrageous than the Heavenly Emperor's back then.

After this return and seclusion, he would probably step into Great Saint. Even if Feng Baiyu guessed that Ye Chen had some hidden hand left behind by the Heavenly Emperor, it was still far too exaggerated. The top geniuses of the Immortal Realm were probably only on par with Ye Chen at best…

On Ye Chen's side, he brought up the matter of the Alkaid Holy Land. This time, Yan Wenwen had been lured into the Seventh Realm to look for Yan Ruyu—that had been the work of the Alkaid Holy Land.

Clearly, even though the Alkaid Holy Land had immediately distanced themselves after Alkaid's identity was exposed, they had never truly given up. Even after Alkaid admitted to killing his Devouring lineage elder brother, they had still supported him wholeheartedly.

After all, in front of the path to immortality, these were all minor matters. As long as Alkaid could become an immortal, any price was worth it.

But the Alkaid Holy Land's actions had displeased him. They had to be dealt with! In the future, if he could use immortal weapons, he might even march straight to their doorstep and wipe out their entire orthodoxy. This would let the world understand the cost of scheming against his women.

When Feng Baiyu heard this, he immediately became interested. Targeting them was a good thing. They could work together with the allied holy lands and Ancient Immortal Clans to divide up the benefits the Alkaid Holy Land would be forced to spit out.

So Feng Baiyu nodded happily, "The Alkaid Holy Land has an Extreme Dao weapon that I'm quite interested in… It's perfect timing to force them to hand that over as well."

The next moment, Feng Baiyu, with extremely strong execution ability, went to contact people and make arrangements.

Ye Chen looked at his Holy Master's eager "let the world be in chaos" expression and could not help but laugh. But leaving these matters to the Holy Master was indeed reassuring.

Ye Chen said no more and went to a quiet chamber on the ship to enter seclusion and organize his cultivation. He would wait until he had delivered everything, then take one step to the next Heaven. Last time he had been at the third heaven of Mahayana, the three people had only absorbed half of his cultivation when he gifted it. Now there was a new ancestor who would probably also come to take a share. He hoped that with four generations together, he could send even more…

Ye Chen thought about the Heavenly Desire Sect. In his mind, he could not help recalling what his senior brother had mentioned—the Quasi-Immortal in the Land of Fallen Immortal.

The top experts of the Heavenly Desire Sect were basically all successive Saintesses who cultivated the Heart-Seed Demon Nirvana Scripture. If that Quasi-Immortal was truly an old ancestor of the Heavenly Desire Sect, he might be able to make use of her when he reached the peak of Quasi-Immortal.

However, the Land of Fallen Immortals was very special. The other party might not be free. Perhaps he would have to make a trip to the Land of Fallen Immortal later to take a look. Ye Chen was also very curious about what exactly was inside!

Seventh Realm of the Immortal Path.

Inside a blessed land, Yan Ruyu cultivated in peace. Seven-colored divine light gathered behind her like a nirvana, attempting a new breakthrough.

After a long time, Yan Ruyu opened her eyes. She could not help but sigh softly. Although she had left decisively and spoken very clearly, she knew in her heart that Ye Chen would probably not give up on her so easily.

After all, she had heard far too many rumors about Ye Chen. She did not understand why Ye Chen had once been merely a rogue cultivator, a personal disciple of some insignificant sect.

But she knew this much: The female cultivator Ye Chen liked had rejected him multiple times. Yet Ye Chen had never become discouraged. He had even said something as humble as "If you are well, then it is a fine day."

From this alone, one could see how persistent he was. And with her own peerless beauty that was almost perfect, how could Ye Chen give up easily?

With Ye Chen's current level of attention, he would inevitably bring her trouble. Thinking of this, she could not help but sigh again. Her immortal voice was so moving that anyone who heard it would feel their own mood sink along with it.

She truly had no interest in the benefits surrounding Ye Chen. She had received the opportunities left behind by her ancestors. She had her own path of cultivation and could walk out of this world without relying on anyone.

Therefore, she genuinely did not want Ye Chen to entangle her again. It would only bring her too many unnecessary troubles.

"In a while, I'll return to the clan… I'll tell Wenwen clearly and have her dissuade Ye Chen… But Wenwen is also pitiful. In the future, she is destined to be abandoned by Ye Chen in this world. All her sincere feelings will be meaningless. Fortunately, I still have one spot left. But I can't bring the little Peacock King. I don't know if Yan Wenwen will be willing to leave with me."

Yan Ruyu gently shook her head, her long hair cascading like a waterfall. She cast aside the distracting thoughts in her heart.

Yan Ruyu continued cultivating in peace. Seven-colored divine light rose and enveloped her graceful figure. Yet even beneath the seven-colored divine light, her shadow remained full of charm and utterly flawless…

…

Eighth Realm of the Immortal Path.

Endless void boiled.

Recently, the Heavenly Emperor's heir had been schemed against twice. Both times had something to do with the Exiled Immortal. This had completely dragged the Exiled Immortal—who had previously stayed hidden in the shadows with only a few rumors—into the spotlight, known to the entire world.

The Exiled Immortal from the Other Domain. His strength was naturally not weak. Especially the method he used to kill two Great Emperors, which many had managed to investigate. It was truly shocking. His own combat strength was already heaven-defying, and his physique was definitely extremely special. The scriptures he cultivated were also top-tier.

But what shocked people the most was the Exiled Immortal's attainments in array dao. He did not need to set up arrays in advance. With every move, he could draw upon the grand momentum of heaven and earth—mountains, rivers, starlight, sun, and moon—all could become arrays.

Once cultivators reached the Mahayana realm, they were actually not that easy to kill. Unless completely crushed. Otherwise, even if they could not win, they had plenty of escape methods. There was basically no need to worry about capsizing.

Yet the two Great Emperors who had fallen at the Exiled Immortal's hands had not had the slightest chance to escape. The grand array had been everywhere, sealing and suppressing them…

There had been nowhere to run. They had even been suppressed and restricted. In the end, they had been casually killed by the Exiled Immortal. Such an enemy was truly terrifying.

However, at this moment, deep within the ruins of a certain Dao field in the Eighth Realm. The Exiled Immortal, whose body flowed with divine radiance and appeared incomparably profound, had a somewhat gloomy expression. He had already learned of Alkaid's fall. He had not considered Alkaid a useless person.

Because previously, he had been paying close attention to Alkaid. He had believed that with the Innate Chaos Body and the Nine Apertures Exquisite Heart, if Alkaid grew to the same realm as himself, even without using array dao, he would find it very difficult to kill the other party.

He would have been a great enemy. Even in the Other Domain, he could be called a genius. It had made the Exiled Immortal develop killing intent, planning to erase him the moment he stepped into the Eighth Realm. He had never expected that such an existence, while surpassing his opponent by an entire major realm, would still fall. This was enough to prove just how troublesome the Heavenly Emperor's heir was…

Therefore, the Exiled Immortal's face remained gloomy. He increasingly believed that this child was the final Child of Fortune of this world.
