Three days later, Ye Chu received a gold stamped invitation. The disciple who delivered it trembled as he looked at Ye Chu, terrified that Ye Chu would strike him.
However, the result was contrary to his expectations. Not only did Ye Chu not strike him, but he also spoke to him with a pleasant countenance, promising he would definitely attend and treating him hospitably.
This attitude left the disciple delivering the invitation overwhelmed by favour, secretly wondering if Ye Chu was unaware of the true purpose of their visit.
Ye Chu accepted the invitation and agreed to go. As soon as this news spread, it caused an uproar. Those who did not know thought Ye Chu was unaware of what the invitation represented, but Huang Long, Liu Huo, and the others knew very well that Ye Chu actually understood everything.
This immediately made the other side burn with anger. What did Ye Chu mean by boasting that he would definitely go? Was he flaunting his power?
“This brat is ridiculously arrogant. I really want to chop him in half with a blade.”
“Hmph! I hope he still has such backbone when the time comes!”
“…”
Amidst the blatant angry curses of a group of disciples, a few days passed quickly.
On the appointed day, Ye Chu walked alone to the agreed Sha Wu Pavilion. The disciples outside the door saw that Ye Chu had actually come, and each clicked their tongues in surprise, thinking this newly arrived disciple truly had guts.
Ye Chu looked at the tightly closed gates of the Sha Wu Pavilion, smiled, and stepped forward. The disciple standing outside the door reached out to block Ye Chu and said, “I will remind you once. Admit defeat and step back now, submit to the senior brothers for the next year, and you can leave now. But once this gate is opened, you will…”
“I know what I am doing. There is no need for you to remind me!” Ye Chu ignored these people, stepped past, and reached out to push the door with force, only to find it extremely heavy.
This surprised Ye Chu. He suddenly exerted more strength, pressing both hands against the gate. Only then did the heavy iron door slowly move, emitting a hissing sound. The heavy friction made Ye Chu increase his strength once more.
King level power erupted, and only then did he completely push the gates open. As the gates were pushed open, a massive hall was presented before Ye Chu. The hall was solemn and magnificent. Each pillar was dozens of metres high, so thick that several large men could not wrap their arms around it. Every pillar was carved with dense patterns. The pillars were pitch black, giving people an even heavier sense of oppression.
Ye Chu walked through the gates, which instantly closed behind him with a creaking sound. Stepping forward, Ye Chu saw the hall filled with disciples. The numerous disciples sat in two rows. As Ye Chu opened the door and stepped in, they all cast their gazes upon him.
Ye Chu did not glance aside. He stepped into the centre of the disciples. In the central position, there was a seat. Ye Chu sat down directly on it.
As soon as Ye Chu sat down, the surroundings erupted in an uproar. Everyone stared at him in a daze, unable to believe he actually dared to sit in that seat. That was the centre of the Blue Jade generation disciples. That seat was always occupied by the number one disciple of the Blue Jade generation. For the past few years, Qingting had been sitting there. No one had ever dared to sit there, and they never expected this guy to do so right after arriving.
Seeing the crowd looking at him in an uproar, Ye Chu had a strange expression. He looked himself up and down, thinking he was not wearing any bizarre clothes today. Was it really necessary for these people to act like this?
“How dare you! Hurry up and…” Just as one of the disciples roared, a small door on the other side of the hall opened, and several young men walked out. The leader of these young men had a dragonfly emblem on his forehead. Ye Chu figured this must be the number one disciple of the Blue Jade generation.
“Step down!” Qingting glared at the cultivator who had stepped out to reprimand Ye Chu.
“Senior Brother, he is sitting in your…” This disciple was somewhat anxious.
Qingting ignored him and walked up to Ye Chu with a few other young men. Looking Ye Chu up and down, he said, “So you are Ye Chu? Not bad, you are a fine looking man!”
Qingting smiled at Ye Chu and sat down in one of the seats not far opposite him. He showed no reaction to Ye Chu sitting in his exclusive seat.
The crowd looked at each other, each frowning. They wondered what Qingting meant. Even when his seat was occupied, he was still in such a good temper?
Amidst the crowd’s confusion, Qingting looked Ye Chu up and down and said, “I heard you are from Wuxin Peak?”
This sentence left Ye Chu stunned. He frowned and looked at Qingting, wondering why Qingting knew about it too.
Seeing Ye Chu’s expression, Qingting confirmed he was indeed from Qingmi Mountain. This made Qingting’s expression turn strange as well. Others might not understand the Wuxin Peak of Qingmi Mountain, and many had never even heard of it. But he was different. The name of this place was like thunder in his ears. His master had repeatedly reminded him that they could provoke Qingmi Mountain, but never Wuxin Peak.
But he never expected to actually see someone from Wuxin Peak in the Sha Ling Pavilion. When Qingting heard this news yesterday, he did not believe it. After all, the reputation of Wuxin Peak was too shocking. How could those guys sneak in here?
“How do you know that?” Ye Chu asked Qingting.
Qingting smiled. Yesterday, someone had come to him and informed him that Ye Chu was from Qingmi Mountain, and ordered him to establish the prestige of the Tianxiao Pavilion and suppress Ye Chu. He had found it funny at the time, but when the other party took out the Pavilion Master’s token, Qingting finally believed it.
After learning that Ye Chu was from Wuxin Peak, Qingting was also extremely excited inwardly. Being able to suppress someone from Wuxin Peak would absolutely be the highest honour for him.
Although he did not know what the Pavilion Master was thinking, Qingting had already made up his mind to let Ye Chu know the terror of the Tianxiao Pavilion today.
“I naturally have someone to inform me,” Qingting smiled. “I just do not understand. Why would someone from a place like Wuxin Peak sneak into our Sha Ling Pavilion, and moreover, manage to get the Tianxiao Pavilion to accept you as a disciple?”
Ye Chu shrugged and said, “Would you believe me if I said I only came because I wanted to learn the Sha Ling Technique? As for why they agreed, I am also very curious about that. Please answer me!”
Qingting smiled. Of course, he did not believe Ye Chu’s words. What kind of place was Wuxin Peak? It was a gathering of madmen. How could they care about the Sha Ling Technique? Sha Ling users had absolutely no advantage in front of them.
“If you do not want to say, then forget it!” Qingting smiled and then looked at Ye Chu, saying, “However, you should know the purpose of today. This is no longer a struggle between you and me, but a struggle between Wuxin Peak and the Tianxiao Pavilion!”
“Do not!” Ye Chu said. “My humble status is not enough to represent Wuxin Peak. If you really want to cause trouble for Wuxin Peak, there are a few madmen you can look for. Ou Yi, Jin Wawa, and the like. You can all go and deal with them.”
Hearing Qingting’s words, the crowd could not help but frown, wondering what Qingting was talking about. What Wuxin Peak and Tianxiao Pavilion? What kind of ghostly place was Wuxin Peak? Could it be compared to their holy land?
However, hearing Ye Chu’s subsequent answer, they each revealed expressions of disdain. They thought that judging by this fellow’s performance, Wuxin Peak could not be such an impressive place.
