“How is it?” After Ye Chu drew all the fierce energy into his body, he looked at the peerlessly beautiful woman before him. His gaze fell on her legs, which were long and alluring. Her dress was faintly visible, and through it, one could see skin like carved mutton-fat jade. Her waist was slender, so delicate it seemed it could be grasped in a single hand, pale and soft like a slender water snake.
Ruoshui was very beautiful, beautiful to the extreme. Ye Chu could not help but lose his focus while looking at her, as her beauty was not just on the outside. It was more of a temperament that could penetrate deep into a person’s soul, which was a flash of her strength.
Ruoshui, however, did not notice Ye Chu’s gaze falling on her chest, or even following her clothes to see the white jade-like cleavage within.
She waved her arm, and a lotus seedpod appeared in the palm of her hand. As the lotus seedpod appeared, Ruoshui spoke, “It is fine! Just recuperate for a period of time and it will be alright. This is the Ruoshui Floating Life Lotus, place it in your qi sea to nourish it. Driven by the textures of the Floating Life Palace, it can help your strength soar. With the power of the Ruoshui Floating Life Lotus, you can burst forth with inhuman combat power. Facing a strong expert, you will also have the power to fight.”
As Ruoshui finished speaking, she struck the Ruoshui Floating Life Lotus into Ye Chu’s body. When she raised her head, she happened to see Ye Chu staring at her chest. Following Ye Chu’s gaze, she saw exactly where her collar had split open, revealing a patch of snow-white skin.
Ruoshui pressed her hand against her chest, her delicate brows furrowing slightly. She pretended not to mind, and turned to speak to Ye Chu, “Comprehend the Supreme Intent as soon as possible. Additionally, the Holy Maiden of the Tan family has an extraordinary physique, and she will be able to help you achieve great things in the future. Since the Floating Life Palace is making a move, we will certainly help you marry her, but the required betrothal gifts you must find yourself.”
Hearing these words, Ye Chu also felt a headache. A woman like Tan Miaotong naturally would not care about betrothal gifts, but Ye Chu could not ignore it. This concerned Tan Miaotong’s reputation. Even if Ye Chu was usually careless, on this point, he had to win some pride for Tan Miaotong.
To tell everyone that Tan Miaotong was not being wronged by following him.
“I will do my best!” Ye Chu said to Ruoshui.
Ruoshui nodded. Seeing Ye Chu’s gaze wandering over her long legs again, she could not help but think of the ambiguous intimacy she had shared with Ye Chu back then. Her face turned somewhat red, and she glanced at Ye Chu and said, “I found an opportunity for a breakthrough on this trip, and I need to find a place to go into seclusion to break through and stabilise my realm in one go. Return to Wuxin Peak on your own!”
Having finished speaking, without waiting for Ye Chu to reply, her graceful figure danced elegantly, and she disappeared from Ye Chu’s line of sight.
Watching Ruoshui leave, Ye Chu stood there in a daze, looking around. Although he knew this was the Sha Mountain, he did not know the specific location, nor did he know which way to walk to get to Wuxin Peak.
But obviously, he could not go to the Sha Mountain, so Ye Chu could only walk with his back to it.
…
Ye Chu walked aimlessly on the road, and along the way, he saw quite a few local customs and conditions. He found it quite interesting, especially since the people here had more or less cultivated some good techniques, which made Ye Chu even more surprised about where this was.
The spiritual energy here was abundant, and cultivation was prevalent, making it count as a good place.
Over these past few days, Ye Chu had also been nourishing the Ruoshui Floating Life Lotus. The Ruoshui Floating Life Lotus, refined by Ruoshui, quickly merged with the textures of the Floating Life Palace, completely fusing into Ye Chu’s qi sea. Ye Chu could feel the surging power within it, a power that could easily shock and kill him.
Ye Chu was very clear about the source of that power. Let alone the essence of Ruoshui and the Jade Abyss Lotus Seedpod, just those dozen or so Law Essences alone possessed enough power to annihilate him.
Feeling the power within it, Ye Chu let out a light breath. He thought to himself that with the help of this thing, his safety was somewhat guaranteed. Thinking of this, Ye Chu also felt a bit of gratitude towards Ruoshui.
No matter what Ruoshui’s purpose was, at least she had truly helped him.
“What secret is the Supreme Intent actually breeding? Making the old madman, the Floating Life Palace, and many other holy lands care so much!” Ye Chu really wanted to peel back the Supreme Intent to see what kind of world-shocking secret it was breeding inside.
While Ye Chu carried various doubts and cultivated along the way, he did not know where he had walked to. In the end, seeing a mountain shrouded in swirling mist and rain, Ye Chu stopped in his tracks.
At the foot of this mountain, Ye Chu saw many cultivators, among whom there was no lack of outstanding talents.
These cultivators were extremely respectful at the foot of the mountain, and some were even prostrating and worshipping the mountain. This made Ye Chu extremely surprised, wondering what place this was that could actually make King realm cultivators kneel on the ground and worship.
“Brother, what place is this?” Ye Chu asked a cultivator.
Hearing Ye Chu’s words, the person he asked turned his head and glared angrily at Ye Chu, then snorted coldly and left, obviously extremely disgusted by Ye Chu’s question.
“Little brother! You are from out of town, right? Do not talk nonsense here. This is the Rain Mist Holy Land, the holy land for cultivators within tens of thousands of miles around.” A kind middle-aged man said to Ye Chu.
Ye Chu was taken aback. He had not expected this to be the Rain Mist Holy Land. The Rain Mist Clan hated him to the extreme, and Ye Chu had not expected himself to run right to the foot of their mountain.
“What are you all gathered here for?” Ye Chu asked curiously.
“The Rain Mist Holy Land is recruiting disciples, and these cultivators all want to enter the holy land to cultivate.” The middle-aged man sighed, “It is a pity I am already past the age, otherwise I could have gone to try my luck as well.”
Hearing these words, Ye Chu suddenly realised. The temptation of a holy land was too great for cultivators. The Rain Mist Holy Land was openly recruiting disciples, so it was not strange that so many people came to their door.
Thinking of the Rain Mist Prince fighting him for Tan Miaotong and setting up a formation to besiege and kill him, a thought flashed through Ye Chu’s mind. With his current strength, he could not do much to the Rain Mist Clan, but sneaking in to cause them some small trouble would be a piece of cake.
As long as he did not provoke elder-level figures of the Rain Mist Holy Land, what did Ye Chu have to fear?
With his current strength, it was enough for him to walk sideways among ordinary cultivators. And those who reached the same level as Ye Chu were all high and mighty, and would have absolutely no intersection with ordinary disciples.
Thinking of this, a slight smile appeared on the corners of Ye Chu’s mouth. He thought it was the perfect time to teach them a lesson and take revenge on the Rain Mist Prince for leading people to besiege and kill him.
Thinking this, Ye Chu also walked towards the Rain Mist Holy Land.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man chuckled and said, “You also want to go and become a disciple of the Rain Mist Holy Land!”
“They are not qualified enough to take me as a disciple!” Ye Chu smiled at the middle-aged man, “I just want to go in and see what is so good about the Rain Mist Holy Land.”
Hearing these words, the middle-aged man was stunned, then shook his head and said, “Hahaha, you know you cannot get in, so saying this is just to comfort yourself.”
Ye Chu laughed and said to the middle-aged man, “If you have nothing to do, just wait down here. I think you will soon remember a name! And know who I am!”
Having finished speaking, Ye Chu laughed loudly and stepped towards the Rain Mist Holy Land.
