Chapter 835
Zhong Wei helped Ye Chu break through to the seventh tier of the Emperor Realm with her exquisite dancing. After that, she returned to her true self and never danced again.
However, Ye Chu, who had witnessed Zhong Wei’s graceful dancing several times, was already very satisfied. Of course, he did not understand Zhong Wei’s actions that night either.
During these days at the Weapon Sect, Ye Chu studied their weapon refining methods. Although he could not access the profound texts, he was not interested in them anyway. He focused on low and mid-tier research, constantly verifying the weapon refining methods he had obtained and supplementing them with new information, which gave him a deeper understanding of the art.
He stayed at the Weapon Sect for a week like this, occasionally spending time with Zhong Wei. The woman was not as disgusted with him as before. Ye Chu often teased her until she blushed, and she did not get angry at him.
A week passed in this manner. Just as Ye Chu was considering leaving, the Sect Master of the Weapon Sect found him.
“You are Ye Chu, the disciple of Wuxin Peak?” the Sect Master of the Weapon Sect looked at Ye Chu, sizing him up before saying, “You have a senior martial brother named Jin Wawa. I wonder if he could come to the Red Dust Domain?”
“You know Jin Wawa?” Ye Chu looked at the Sect Master curiously. This was a middle-aged man, but Ye Chu knew he was incredibly strong, so strong that he could not sense even a trace of his aura.
“Who does not know the descendant of the God of Wealth from back then?” the Sect Master laughed. “I just did not expect that he would dare to defy the whole world to save Jin Wawa.”
Ye Chu knew the Sect Master was referring to the Old Madman, but he was even more shocked that Jin Wawa truly had the identity of the God of Wealth’s descendant. This fellow boasted about being the God of Wealth every day, and it turned out it was not just empty talk.
“He has not come to the Love Domain!” Ye Chu replied. “If you have business with him, Senior, you can inform this junior, and I can pass on the message.”
The Sect Master of the Weapon Sect shook his head. “That is not necessary. The Weapon Sect owes the Jin family a favour, and we hope to repay it. If he were in the Red Dust Domain, it would resolve a matter weighing on our minds.”
Ye Chu did not know what kind of favour the Jin family could have made the Weapon Sect owe, but seeing the Sect Master so fixated on it, it must be an enormous one.
Ye Chu considered in his mind whether he should let Jin Wawa extort the Weapon Sect heavily.
“You destroyed the Unfallen Mountain, and rumours say the Blood Slaughter Supreme was involved. I wonder when that was?” the Sect Master looked at Ye Chu and said. “When did Wuxin Peak ally with the Blood Slaughter Supreme? Furthermore, the Blood Slaughter Supreme has an eccentric personality and never acts with others. Even if he truly resurrected, he would only be an enemy of Wuxin Peak. How could he ally with you?”
“The information you have is incorrect,” Ye Chu said to the Sect Master. “Although the power of the Blood Slaughter Supreme was indeed present when the Unfallen Mountain was destroyed, it was only his descendant. The Blood Slaughter Supreme himself did not act.”
“A descendant of the Blood Slaughter Supreme?” The Sect Master suddenly realised. “Do you mean the woman wanted by the Unfallen Mountain? I did not expect the Blood Slaughter Supreme to leave behind a bloodline, and to be on good terms with you.”
Ye Chu smiled and looked at the Sect Master. “It seems you are thoroughly familiar with the affairs of the Love Domain, Senior.”
“I might not understand other matters in the Love Domain, but I pay attention to everything regarding the Sacred Lands. The Love Domain is a special existence. Although it is a barren land, it has left behind countless legends. For some unknown reason, there are several forbidden lands there, and every generation of Supremes will visit them. It seems the Love Domain holds great secrets. Anyone who truly understands history will not underestimate the Love Domain,” the Sect Master said to Ye Chu.
“You flatter me, Senior!” Ye Chu said with a smile. “The Love Domain might have secrets, but who can truly know them?”
The Sect Master nodded and laughed loudly. “Exactly! The only Love Saint back then who might have known the secrets severed himself from heaven and earth. What a pity!”
Ye Chu did not know about these things. He just smiled and did not respond.
“How is he doing?” the Sect Master looked at Ye Chu and said. “You are his disciple. Do you know his origins?”
“You do not know, Senior?” Ye Chu thought to himself. Since you pay attention to so many matters in the Love Domain, how could you not know the Old Madman’s origins?
The Sect Master shook his head. “With the strength of the Weapon Sect, we can always find some clues about other people’s origins. But for him, we could not find even a trace. It is as if he suddenly appeared in the world. Moreover, his strength suddenly became peerless. Just like a myth, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are all guessing his origins, but no one can figure it out.”
“Are you that famous? Do the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths all know the old man?” Ye Chu was extremely surprised.
The Sect Master laughed. “You will know when you learn about his battle record.”
“Battle record?” Ye Chu was puzzled, wondering if the Old Madman had done something earth-shattering in the past.
“It seems you do not know his origins either,” the Sect Master sighed. “It is truly hard to imagine how he appeared.”
Ye Chu did not understand the other’s words, but the Weapon Sect Master continued talking to himself. “He took Jin Wawa as a disciple. I do not know if this is Jin Wawa’s blessing or his tragedy.”
“To be honest, your status in Wuxin Peak is no less than that of a Sacred Land successor. But precisely because of this status, you have many enemies. Not to mention his enemies, the enemies of the Jin family alone are countless.”
The Sect Master’s words made Ye Chu smile. As a disciple of the Old Madman, he would not worry about this. Wuxin Peak had so many enemies, yet it still survived perfectly well, which meant Wuxin Peak did not fear them.
“Enough, I will not say these things to you anymore. I came here hoping you would pass a message to him,” the Sect Master said suddenly.
“What message?” Ye Chu asked.
“The Prosperous Era is approaching, and the Heavenly Secret Ranking is about to emerge. If he does not want Jin Wawa to die, he had better help Jin Wawa conceal his heavenly secrets,” the Sect Master said to Ye Chu.
“The Heavenly Secret Ranking? What is that?” Ye Chu asked curiously.
“Tell him, and he will naturally know what to do,” the Sect Master said. Just as he was about to leave, he saw a graceful figure approaching from a distance. Looking at this delicate and charming person, the Sect Master glanced at Ye Chu.
He could also tell that the relationship between Ye Chu and Zhong Wei was more intimate than outsiders imagined. If it were any other woman showing enthusiasm towards Ye Chu, the Sect Master would not think much of it, nor would he overthink it.
But he knew Zhong Wei’s personality very well. Let alone dancing for a man, it was rare for her to even speak to one. Yet, this very person danced for several hours to help Ye Chu break through, to the point where she nearly fainted.
That night, he happened to see Zhong Wei dancing alone for him.
“Ye Chu, there is a piece of advice. I do not know if you will listen to it!” the Sect Master suddenly asked.
“Please speak, Senior!”
“Stay away from Zhong Wei, the further the better. For the sake of your own life!”
