Chapter 214: Ancient Divine Beast! Veteran Simp!

    The previously gloomy atmosphere of Jade Pond Sacred Land was revitalized because of Ye Chen’s Weibo post.

    Countless female disciples were thrilled at the thought of the Heavenly Origin Saint Master’s imminent arrival, their hearts fluttering.

    Even the Jade Pond Saint Master had a look of longing in her eyes.

    “A man like the Saint Master, powerful, highly respected, and incredibly wealthy! Being his Dao companion would make any woman the happiest in all of Great Yan Province.”

    The Jade Pond Saint Master shook her head gently, “You have no chance!”

    The Saint Master felt a bit indignant but didn’t dare to speak out.

    The Jade Pond Saint Master couldn’t bear to reveal the truth, afraid of hurting her Holy Maiden’s feelings.

    The Heavenly Origin Saint Master was coming for her!

    He was infatuated with the most beautiful woman in Great Yan Province!

    Thinking of this, the Jade Pond Saint Master realized she had become somewhat haggard recently...

    Even her clothes seemed too ordinary.

    She needed to prepare!

    Since the Heavenly Origin Saint Master was coming for her, even though she couldn’t accept his affection, she still had to present her most perfect self.

    Amid the anticipation of Jade Pond Sacred Land and the cultivators of the Eastern Sea, the next day arrived.

    By noon, dozens of terrifyingly powerful figures descended upon the gates of Jade Pond Sacred Land.

    The Jade Pond Saint Master and elders stood outside to greet them.

    The arrival of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land’s support naturally warranted the highest level of reception.

    Leading the group was Ye Chen.

    Clad in white, his starry eyes sparkled, giving him an ethereal, immortal-like presence, making the eyes of countless female disciples in Jade Pond Sacred Land shine with admiration.

    “Greetings to the Heavenly Origin Saint Master and the elders of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.

    “We are deeply grateful for your support and will remember it always. The Supreme Elder is currently healing from injuries and will join us later. Please forgive the delay.”

    The Jade Pond Saint Master’s voice was clear, like a mountain spring, invoking a sense of closeness.

    Since arriving in the Eastern Sea, Ye Chen’s gaze had been drawn to the majestic Kunlun.

    As the number one immortal mountain in Great Yan Province, it was indeed magnificent.

    Upon seeing the Jade Pond Saint Master, a flash of amazement crossed Ye Chen’s eyes.

    She truly deserved her title as the number one beauty.

    In person, she was even more stunning than in photos — her snow-white skin and perfect figure were comparable to Gu Yunyun’s voluptuousness.

    Her facial features seemed to be the perfect creation of the heavens, emitting a soft glow, truly like an immortal fairy.

    However, his amazement was fleeting.

    Beauty at a certain level had no distinctions, only different characteristics.

    Ye Chen still preferred Gu Yunyun.

    So, meeting the Jade Pond Saint Master’s gaze, Ye Chen smiled lightly, “You’re too kind!”

    Behind Ye Chen, Elder Wang Changchun of the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land’s artifact department exclaimed, “So alike, truly so alike!”

    The corners of the other Heavenly Origin Sacred Land elders’ mouths twitched, feeling rather embarrassed.

    Everyone knew that their Elder Wang Changchun was a devoted admirer of the Jade Pond Saint Master’s mother.

    Despite being rejected multiple times, he persisted, even spending three years crafting a Dao artifact for her, only to be turned down again.

    His Dao heart was nearly shattered.

    Upon seeing the Jade Pond Saint Master, his old feelings resurfaced.

    The Jade Pond Saint Master smiled lightly at Elder Wang Changchun, “Greetings, Elder Wang. My mother often speaks of you, saying you are a good man!”

    Hearing this, Elder Wang’s eyes welled with emotion, “She still mentions me...”

    Ye Chen sighed inwardly.

    Even the Jade Pond Saint Master had a complex emotion in her beautiful eyes.

    Such a genius—why does he already have a Dao companion?

    How fortunate Gu Yunyun is.

    What a pity.

    The Jade Pond Supreme Elder was the most shocked of all.

    As a powerful cultivator in the Deity Transformation Realm, she understood the difficulty of breakthroughs.

    It took her two hundred years to go from early to mid-stage Deity Transformation.

    For any Deity Transformation stage cultivator, seeing Ye Chen achieve this in seven months was hard to accept.

    Those with less stable minds might have their Dao hearts shattered.

    Ye Chen’s breakthrough speed was simply too ridiculous.

    After a long while, the Supreme Elder managed a bitter smile, “Daoist Ye, I was out of line!”

    “May I ask when the esteemed Elder Tianque and your master will arrive?”

    When the conversation turned to serious matters, the Supreme Elder’s face brightened with a smile.

    Ye Chen’s breakthrough was wonderful news for Jade Pond Sacred Land.

    With Ye Chen’s strength, dealing with the mid-stage Deity Transformation eight-armed demon ape would be easy.

    Despite her own injuries, teaming up with Ye Chen’s master Nangong Wan to hold off another mid-stage Deity Transformation fishman chief would be no trouble.

    Elder Tianque, in the late Deity Transformation Realm, would handle the golden lion king.

    Even if they couldn’t kill it, once Ye Chen and she were done with their opponents, they could join forces.

    No matter how strong or invincible the golden lion king’s bloodline powers were, it would still fall.

    The Jade Pond Supreme Elder had planned everything well, but Ye Chen shook his head, “Elder Tianque and my master are both in seclusion.”

    Ye Chen’s words left the Supreme Elder stunned.

    The Jade Pond Saint Master and others were also bewildered.

    They had expected three Deity Transformation cultivators from Heavenly Origin Sacred Land. But it turned out only the Heavenly Origin Saint Master had come?

    Seeing their reactions, Ye Chen smiled confidently, “Elder, just tell me the locations of the three demon kings, and I will take care of it!”

    Ye Chen’s confidence made the Supreme Elder sigh inwardly.

    Geniuses were always confident, but treating three Deity Transformation demon kings as nothing was a bit too arrogant.

    The Supreme Elder sincerely advised, “Daoist Ye, those two mid-stage Deity Transformation demon kings aside, the golden lion king is extremely terrifying. It possesses the bloodline of the ancient three-eyed divine lion. Its vertical eye on the forehead, once opened, has a binding force, and its terrifying divine light can obliterate everything. I was gravely injured by a single strike from it, unable to resist. Moreover, it is said that when the golden lion’s vertical eye fully opens, it forms an absolute domain, capable of annihilating the soul. Therefore, Saint Master, please do not act rashly. It would be better to wait until our Elder Qingcheng returns or your Elder Tianque emerges from seclusion before making a decision.”

    Ye Chen raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.

    The golden lion king even had an ancient divine beast bloodline.

    Yet, he remained undaunted, “Supreme Elder, just tell me the demon king’s location.”

    The Supreme Elder sighed and looked at the Saint Master.

    She was unwilling to let Ye Chen go.

    Ye Chen had come to aid Jade Pond Sacred Land and was indebted to them.

    She couldn’t let him go into such danger.

    Meanwhile, the Jade Pond Saint Master’s gaze softened, even becoming affectionate.

    She hadn’t expected Ye Chen to care so much.

    Despite the two Deity Transformation elders of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land being in seclusion, he still led several Nascent Soul elders here, risking danger to resolve Jade Pond Sacred Land’s crisis.

    This touched her deeply, as if struck by divine lightning.

    Thus, the Jade Pond Saint Master’s eyes grew more tender, “Daoist Ye, could we have a private conversation?”

    The Saint Master’s gaze made Ye Chen uncomfortable.

    Something felt off.

    But if she wanted a private conversation, could it be that there was some hidden truth about the Eastern Sea chaos?
