Chapter 1209 - 629: The Grand Finale
"He must not board the ship!"
Lu Yuan was just about to step onto the ship.
A slightly harsh voice suddenly came from the crowd.
Upon hearing this voice, Ye Yongfeng frowned slightly and turned his head to look back.
He saw a mature beautiful woman in a red dress, swaying her serpentine waist, slowly emerging from the crowd.
The beautiful woman's appearance was enchanting, her figure exceedingly attractive.
Though her youth was gone, and time had left some traces on her face, she was still breathtakingly beautiful, enough to make countless men lose their divine soul over her.
Wherever she passed, the faces of those nearby changed slightly, not daring to block her in the slightest, they hurriedly moved aside to make way for her.
"Steward Tang, what do you mean by this?"
Ye Yongfeng's expression darkened slightly, somewhat displeased.
But the beautiful woman in the red dress ignored his displeasure, just glanced at Lu Yuan and spoke to herself.
"Elder Ye, do not forget the purpose of our journey."
"This person's origins are mysterious, if you rashly let him board the ship, and he colludes with other tribulation cultivators, jeopardizing the Divine Lord's affairs, can you bear the responsibility?"
"Nonsense, I, Ye Yongfeng, have lived for so many years, mingled with all sorts of people, and can tell what kind of person someone is."
"Brother Lu and I hit it off immediately, how could he possibly be involved with tribulation cultivators?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Yongfeng angrily rebuked loudly.
If it were usual, he certainly wouldn't have a conflict with his own people over a stranger.
But the reason why he was determined to defend Lu Yuan this time was that.
On one hand, it was because he had practiced a certain Secret Technique in his early years, capable of observing stars and reads fortunes, vaguely judging the depth of someone's fortune.
And Lu Yuan not only had a mysterious origin, his fortune was as deep as the sea, far exceeding everyone he had seen, clearly a person with great fortune!
People like this, with great fortune, often have unlimited prospects.
One can only strive to establish good relations with him, and must never offend him.
To form a good relationship with him is a rare creation for ordinary strong individuals!
Furthermore, the beautiful woman in the red dress, although merely a subordinate, relies on some background, frequently contradicting him in public.
If he can't even control a woman, how could he maintain his position in this fleet?
"Brother Lu, forgive the embarrassment caused, some people flaunt their charm, thinking they've climbed high, little do they know they're just playing things for others."
"Brother Lu, please go ahead and board the ship, if there are any consequences, I will bear them all!"
Ye Yongfeng snorted coldly, ignoring the red-dressed woman's obstruction, insisted on inviting Lu Yuan aboard.
"Ye Yongfeng, how dare you insult me like that, I will surely report to the Divine Son to have your Elder position stripped!"
Hearing these words, the woman in red dress turned extremely pale, her chest heaving with anger, almost exploding on the spot.
But she was exposed by Ye Yongfeng in public, losing all face, she angrily left.
"Brother Ye, I'm sorry to trouble you."
Lu Yuan witnessed this scene and said with some embarrassment.
"No problem! Just some trivial matters."
"Come, come, come, Brother Lu must have endured hardships while drifting in the star domain, let me host a banquet to welcome you."
Ye Yongfeng said with a warm smile, pulling Lu Yuan to drink and eat together.
Lu Yuan couldn't refuse, so he obliged.
The feast was satisfying, host and guest greatly enjoyed.
After drinking until slightly intoxicated, he finally bid farewell to Ye Yongfeng and returned to a luxurious suite on the main ship.
This suite was specifically for hosting distinguished guests.
It was not only spacious, with several hundred square meters, but also equipped with a sofa, a large bed, a Cultivation Room, a Spirit Gathering Array, and various other facilities.
Lu Yuan lived alone, with plenty of space.
In the following months, Lu Yuan spent his days meditating and cultivating, occasionally leaving the suite to discuss various information with Ye Yongfeng.
Ye Yongfeng was keen on forming a good relationship with Lu Yuan, thus he spared no information, telling Lu Yuan everything he knew.
Nothing noteworthy happened along the way.
Three months later.
The All Realms Commerce fleet finally arrived at Great Hoang Star.
However, before the fleet landed, they saw outside Great Hoang Star.
A cold-looking young man in luxurious clothing, surrounded by hundreds of strong individuals, standing quietly in the void, seemingly here to demand an explanation.
It seemed he was deliberately waiting for Ye Yongfeng and his party.
"Eternal Night Divine Son? Why is he here?"
Seeing that cold young man, Ye Yongfeng's heart was shocked, his expression turning extremely sour.
Because although this young man only had the power at the Peak of Immortality, he was the favored direct lineage of an ancient deity.
And the beautiful woman in red dress had latched onto this cold young man, hence daring to go against Ye Yongfeng repeatedly.
Ye Yongfeng did not expect.
That cold young man would gather such a force for a mere woman, daring to openly block the All Realms Commerce fleet in front of everyone!
"Divine Son, you're finally here!"
"Ye Yongfeng humiliated me in public for an outsider, you must stand up for me!"
The woman in red dress, seeing this, was immediately overjoyed, transforming into a rainbow light, flying towards the cold young man.
The cold young man upon hearing this, slowly lifted his head, his face dark as water, a strong killing intent even surged in his eyes.
But only at this moment.
Everyone suddenly noticed that there was a bright red palm seal on his face!
This palm seal was as red as blood, like a red-hot branding iron, imprinted firmly on the cold young man's face, extremely glaring.
"Divine Son, you..."
The woman in red dress's pupils contracted, sensing something was wrong, her speed instantly slowed down a bit.
