Chapter 3227: Chapter 4004: Ren’s Attitude

"That’s great, as long as we win the Pill Venerate Conference, that kid Ye Chen will surely die."

Yang Teng was overjoyed, as long as they could secure victory at the Pill Venerate Conference and obtain the prizes of Jade Golden Dew and Dharma Flower Annihilation Heaven, even if they couldn’t kill Ye Chen themselves, they could invite the Green Candle Dragon to take him out, leaving nothing to worry about.

At this time, Ye Chen, after leaving the Qing Residence, arrived at a desolate mountain.

"Master!"

Qing Qiuyun, eyes glistening with tears, ran up behind Ye Chen and grabbed the corner of his robe.

The night was as tranquil as water, the stars few and the moon distant, solitary man and woman, in the desolate mountains, creating a slightly forlorn scene.

"Disciple, what’s the need for this."

Ye Chen shook his head, feeling Qing Qiuyun’s pull, but he had no lingering feelings; gently freeing himself from Qing Qiuyun, not wanting to stir up more karma.

"Master, others may not believe in you, but I know your skills, your alchemy proficiency, will definitely surpass anyone!"

Qing Qiuyun took out a token once more and shoved it into Ye Chen’s hand: "Take this token, three days later, go participate in the Pill Venerate Conference, you must prove to everyone that you have what it takes to win, that you are worthy to be my master!"

"Cough cough, disciple, you may be overestimating me."

Ye Chen chuckled, if it were a competition about achievements in medicine, he wouldn’t fear anyone, but as far as pure alchemy goes, he might not be a match for Danhuang Yang Lie.

Though experienced in alchemy, it had been too long since he last tried, and his skills were somewhat rusty.

And Danhuang Yang Lie, renowned in the Outer Realm, had unfathomable alchemy skills, if it truly came down to a contest, he wasn’t confident.

"Master, you can do it!"

Qing Qiuyun’s gaze was intense; she dared to defy conventions and even confront her father, just to acknowledge Ye Chen as her master, because she absolutely believed in Ye Chen’s abilities.

Ye Chen clenched the token Qing Qiuyun gave him tightly, immediately feeling the immense weight, saying: "Don’t worry, entrusting your competition fate to me, I won’t let you down."

If he failed, Qing Qiuyun would definitely not be able to stand in Boundary City in the future and would be ridiculed by everyone.

For the Bloodline Origin, and for Qing Qiuyun’s future, he must not lose this Pill Venerate Conference.

"Master, I believe in you."

Qing Qiuyun, listening to Ye Chen’s words, felt deeply moved.

Ye Chen gave a slight smile and said: "There are three days until the Pill Venerate Conference begins, during these three days, I need to focus on cultivation training; try not to disturb me."

Ye Chen was constantly calculating in his mind; to succeed in the Pill Venerate Conference, he decided to rediscover his alchemy practice, it was time for Mystic Flames to upgrade; as long as Mystic Flames’ energy rose, he could better control the Flame Tablet and refine pills more effortlessly.

Moreover, only by enhancing Mystic Flames’ power, could he be confident in defeating Danhuang Yang Lie and his father.

"Yes, master, then focus on your cultivation training, I won’t disturb you."

Qing Qiuyun obediently nodded and immediately turned away to leave.

...

Meanwhile, on a towering giant mountain in the Upper Realm, filled with spiritual pressure.

A chessboard hovered at the center.

A man exuding the Emperor’s Aura stood proudly, holding a white piece, placing it directly on the board.

The man’s eyes seemed to reflect a blood moon, surrounded by stars, extremely mysterious.

"Elder Ye, you seem to be losing!"

The man revealed a carefree smile!

This man was none other than the mysterious Ren!

And the elder before him was naturally Ye Chen’s grandfather.

The place they were in was called Devouring Sky Peak.

Though the Upper Realm was filled with powerhouses, fewer than a thousand could set foot on Devouring Sky Peak!

The terrifying seal on Devouring Sky Peak made breathing a luxury for most people! Let alone playing chess so calmly!

Elder Ye’s white eyebrows furrowed slightly, but he still placed a black piece on the board: "That may not be so, the game is not over, the outcome unknown."

Ren squinted his eyes slightly and nodded: "Indeed, this game is interesting, just that, the wind on Devouring Sky Peak has grown stronger, as if someone outside wants to interfere with this game?"

In his words, on Devouring Sky Peak, a blood moon hung high, a sense of desolation spread!

Ren held a chess piece, suddenly shooting towards one direction!

In the next moment, the chess piece seemed to transform into a Primordial Giant Beast, charging into the darkness!

Soon, the beast returned.

But it held an elder in its mouth!

The elder’s level of cultivation was not weak in the Upper Realm, yet at this moment, he trembled all over!

For the moment that Primordial Giant Beast appeared, he felt he was going to die!

What kind of technique is this!

A single chess piece morphing into a beast more terrifying than any Upper Realm beast!

This method was unheard of!

The beast flung the elder towards Ren!

Ren and Elder Ye showed no expression, still engrossed in their chess game.

As if that elder had never appeared.

The elder could no longer bear the pressure, kneeling directly, his body trembling, hands presenting a jade scroll: "Esteemed sirs, I truly did not mean to interrupt your game, but the Empress sent me to deliver an invitation..."

Yet, Ren and Elder Ye still paid no attention!

The elder could only hold it that way!

Especially since Devouring Sky Peak carried immense pressure!

The elder’s action was subject to overwhelming pressure!

He even felt that his arms were going to be crushed by the seal’s power!

After half an hour!

The elder was nearly collapsed on the ground, but his hands still held up by sheer will!

Beneath him was a pool of blood!

"Elder Ye, my apologies, I won again."

"It’s about time, let’s head back."

Ren smiled slightly, stood up, and stretched lazily.

"Very well."

Elder Ye nodded, gently waving his arm, then a Void Gate appeared within the powerful seal of Devouring Sky Peak!

As the two were about to cross into the Void Gate, the elder could no longer hold back: "Esteemed sirs... the Empress invites you!"

Ren halted his step, clenching his five fingers, and the jade scroll appeared in his hand.

The elder rejoiced, his mission was considered completed!

However, in the next moment, the jade scroll disintegrated into powder!

A voice resonant as if from the Nine Heavens sounded by his ear: "When I play chess, I do not like to be disturbed."

"If there’s a next time, it won’t be the scroll in my hand turning into powder, but your Upper Realm Empress’s head."

"Take this message back, it will suffice for you to pass on."

As the words fell, the Void Gate closed.

The two figures seemed to never have existed on Devouring Sky Peak.

And that elder spat out a mouthful of black blood.

The seal on Devouring Sky Peak was terrifying, but what was more terrifying was the aura emanating from that man!

He finally understood why the Empress had sent him to this place, risking asking for someone!

This person appearing in the Upper Realm was more like a threat!

A threat to the Upper Realm Empress, a threat to the Zun Clan!

He even felt, for a moment, that standing before him was not a man, but a God towering above all creation!

Who would dare defy the will of a God!
