26. It's just the Eldest Senior Brother's task (Third Update)_1

Tiandang Peak.

The dormitory for the lower-ranked disciples.

A black-robed youth was sitting cross-legged on the bed, with his five hearts facing upward, seemingly deeply immersed in meditation.

Whooosh~~

A pure white streak was exhaled from his mouth.

He slowly opened his eyes, a faint divine light was swirling in them, and an air of mystery enveloped him!

His aura was twice as strong as before!

"I have reached the Foundation Establishment stage!"

"This feels so good! Old Shi, you're amazing!"

"With your "Daoist Immortal Sutra" guiding my energy circulation, whether it is a spiritual-rich area like the Qinglan Sect, or the average deep mountains and swamps, this Princely Heir has the confidence to reach Foundation Establishment in three months and Golden Core within a year!"

The young man lifted the ring from his hand and said excitedly.

"Hahaha, so now you know the existence supporting you from the back, right?"

"You won't call me a braggart anymore, right?"

The voice inside the ring laughed.

"I won't! Old Shi! I was blind and offended you before. I apologize once again! Rest assured, I will listen to you from now on!"

Ye Chen quickly said.

"Enough, enough. Today, against my advice, you forcefully joined the Qinglan Sect and even took... that Yuanyi old Daoist as your master! Hmph!"

The elder inside the ring seemed somewhat dissatisfied, humphed, and then said,

"Well, from now on, you must take my advice, we need to be cautious and step by step. This is how we can seize the opportunities on this mountain."

"Cautious and step by step? What do you mean?"

Ye Chen asked.

Just as he finished speaking.

A voice came from outside, "Disciple Ye Chen, Elder Sister Chu from the Divine Phoenix Peak is here to apologize! Do you want to see her?"

"Elder Sister Chu? The... Chu Youwei?"

Ye Chen was stunned for a moment, and an image of a beautiful fairy in white, with an ancient zither in her arms sprung up in his mind...

"Young friend, don't go!"

"The Divine Phoenix Peak harbors ill-will towards you, we must be very cautious--"

Before the word "cautious" was finished.

The black-robed youth had already walked out with a cold smile.

"Chu Youwei, this Princely Heir would like to see what tricks you are up to!"

...

...

At the edge of a cliff on Tiandang Peak, under the moonlight.

A graceful and beautiful figure stood against the wind.

Ye Chen stood at a distance, completely stunned.

"Graceful and pretty, with fair skin, even a moon-white dress couldn't hide her charming figure..."

"Not bad, not bad, she is one of the types I, Ye Chen like the most."

Ye Chen swallowed, and took the initiative to approach.

"Fairy Chu, oh no, I should address you as Elder Sister Chu now."

"Why did you summon me in the middle of the night? What's the matter?"

Ye Chen gently waved his folding fan, trying to look as casual and debonair as possible.

"Disciple Ye, I'm sorry..."

Chu Youwei sighed lightly and said, "My Eldest Senior Brother lost control of his strength today, hurting you...sigh."

"Actually, after understanding the whole situation, I realized it was all my Eldest Senior Brother's fault!"

"He saw Sister Ying Ying fall for you at first sight and became jealous!"

"Disciple Ye, you...were innocent!"

Chu Youwei tried to make her expression look as sincere as possible.

She rarely ever lied!

But this time, to gain her Eldest Senior Brother's approval and to become the most capable sister in his heart, she made the decision!

"Exactly! Elder Sister Chu understands!"

"This Princely Heir is deeply moved!"

Ye Chen's face was full of excitement, and his eyes were filled with tears!

He had a feeling!

Starting from this night...

The halo of the Son of Destiny, who had always been loved by everyone and adored by all beauties, was returning!

"Yes, it's really unfair to Disciple Ye...sigh..."

Chu Youwei sighed lightly, but at the same time, her cheeks turned slightly red.

She couldn't help it, every time she lied, she would blush!

When Ye Chen noticed this, his heart was filled with joy!

As an experienced man, he naturally knew that this woman had feelings for him!

"It's fine, Elder Sister."

Ye Chen smiled freely, walked over and said, "Let's not talk about those unimportant people. Right now, just the two of us under this beautiful night scene, why not…"

Chu Youwei felt a wave of nausea and stepped back, saying, "Disciple Ye, as you said, the night is beautiful, why not... Um! Let me take you to a good place!"

"A nice place?" Ye Chen was taken aback.

"Yes, as a newcomer to Qinglan Sect, you probably aren't aware of the seventy-two unparalleled sceneries and the eighty-one Blessed Abodes on Qinglan Mountain. There are Spiritual Springs and Rainbow Bridges everywhere, a spectacle of beauty. Elder Sister can take you around, consider it a small way to atone for our Eldest Senior Brother's actions." Chu Youwei spoke hurriedly, careful in her choice of words.

"Hmph, you said you wouldn't mention that Immortal Stick, so why bring him up again?" Ye Chen was quite disgruntled.

If it weren't for the beauty in front of him, his temper would've flared up long ago!

In this life, he, Ye Wudi, is destined to have a never-ending feud with that man named Lin Xiao!

"Immortal...Stick?" Chu Youwei started, then realizing that he was referring to her Eldest Senior Brother, an icy murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

"No, I must endure! I must endure!"

"I must complete the task Elder Brother left me!" Chu Youwei forced down her anger saying, "Alright, let's not talk more about this. Let's go."

"Junior Brother...are you able to control a sword with your mind?" She asked.

"Hahahaha, watch this, Elder Sister Chu!"

Ye Chen roared with laughter, and the black sword in its box suddenly sprang out, shooting up into the sky in a flash. He was showboating, putting almost all of his True Power into this move.

"This man is merely a martial arts practitioner who just joined the sect; how can he perform such an Immortal-Level movement technique?"

"Could he have a powerful master guiding him behind the scenes?" Chu Youwei felt a tightening in her heart.

Although her mind was filled with the script of the Heavenly Dao's future, the more the plot advanced, the fuzzier the details in the script became!

However, one thing could be certain.

There was some kind of trump card hiding within Ye Chen!

"With Junior Brother Ye's current capabilities, it seems you might be outclassed!"

"Let's go!"

Chu Youwei snorted coldly, summons her Thousand Feathered Zither with a spell, and instantly transformed it into a rainbow-colored light streak.

She ascended with her zither and was dozens of feet higher than Ye Chen in an instant.

She was usually serene and non-competitive. This was the first time in her life she had ever been this contentious!

However, this man's conceit was too sickening and infuriating!

At this moment, she once again solidified her cultivation goal for the future...

She, Chu Youwei, wants to possess Eldest Senior Brother!

As for Ye Chen...

He must be killed!

"Ye Chen, you villain, do you really think you're just like what the script said: destined to be unmatched, irresistibly charming, and liked by all females?"

"All these ... are simply tasks given by Elder Brother!"

...

...

Two hours passed.

The night deepened.

"Strange, this woman has been gone for so long, why hasn't she come back yet?"

Ye Chen, was chilled by the headwind, shivered, paced back and forth, restless.

"Young friend..."

The sound from the Soul Ring echoed again, "This place is not normal, there might be a trap."

"Old Shi, why do you say that?" Ye Chen narrowed his eyes.

"I've been sensing the spiritual energy here. I've noted that the spiritual energy is abundant, and the quality is superior. It does not resemble a barren wilderness as much as it resembles..."

"A very rare innate spiritual gathering ground!"

"You should know, places like these are usually within sects, provided to core disciples, or even stewards, and elders as cultivation treasure lands."

"Furthermore..."

Old Shi paused, then said, "The Fengshui here is dominated by Yin Energy and lacks Yang Energy. For whatever reason, we should leave this place as quickly as possible!"

"Hahahaha, Old Shi, you really underestimate my luck!"

"Ever since I escaped from the Great Zhou Dynasty, have we not encountered many dangers along the way?"

"Was there ever a time where this Princely Heir didn't turn a crisis into an opportunity? What is there to fear?"

Ye Chen responded with a disdainful sneer.

"Though you say that, don't forget, even the Eldest Senior Brother of Divine Phoenix Peak had today..."

"Old Shi! Stop mentioning that Immortal Stick in front of me!"

"Can't you see it? Didn't Chu Youwei already have a deep affection for this Princely Heir?"

"And the reason as to why I played along was to make her submit to me, to let her act as my undercover agent around Lin Xiao!"

"Do you understand now?"

Ye Chen's eyes blazed brightly as if he saw through everything, and his momentum returned to the unbeatable attitude he had before he arrived at Qinglan Sect.

"I never imagined a world with such conceited people."

"Alas…even rotten wood cannot be carved."

In the boundless space of Soul Ring echoed a sigh.
