Saint Chen Yun, Skeleton Monarch, Di Lintian, Yan Hun... these are all peerless Human Kings, with the potential to ascend to the Great Saint!
Moreover, they once helped Ye Chen, saving his life!
Ye Chen comprehended the epic path and became a great calamity. Logically, he should repay the favor by handing over the Great Saint title!
However, Ye Chen only feigned and said, "I know you want it, but I won't give it to you!"
Damn it! Isn't this just a joke!
"Ye Chen, you've grown wings now, dare to play tricks on your god-grandfather!" Di Lintian's face darkened. "Back then, you had just entered the martial path, weak as a fly; it was in my abode that you gained fortuity and rose to prominence... shouldn't you be grateful?"
Di Lintian had a profound connection with Ye Chen, he could be considered Ye Chen's benefactor!
Furthermore, back then Ye Chen was very weak and sought support everywhere, even recognizing Di Lintian as his god-grandfather!
Given his favor to Ye Chen and being his god-grandfather, Di Lintian naturally felt confident enough to speak his mind to Ye Chen!
However, Di Lintian was a bit too bold, actually calling Ye Chen a fly, which dumbfounded some!
Ye Chen had just killed a Great Saint with a punch, and for one peak Human King to dare call Ye Chen as weak as a fly, wasn't that just asking for it?
"God-grandfather, you've always looked after me, I naturally won't forget you. This Great Saint title..."
An unexpected situation occurred; faced with Di Lintian's provoking words, Ye Chen didn't get angry but instead smiled helplessly.
"Ye Chen, wait a moment!" Ye Tianshi interrupted Ye Chen's words. "Di Lintian was indeed a benefactor, but don't forget, who is truly your ancestor!"
"The Great Saint title is so precious, don't foolishly give it to outsiders!"
Ye Chen's look of helplessness towards Di Lintian gave Ye Tianshi a scare, thinking Ye Chen was ready to hand over the Great Saint title, so he quickly spoke out.
"Damn, how am I an outsider?" Di Lintian said angrily. "Ye Chen is my god-grandson, isn't it right for him to show some filial respect?"
"That depends on what it is. If it's two pounds of pancakes, I wouldn't hesitate to let you take it, but the Great Saint title is not it!" Ye Tianshi said.
"Damn, after thousands of years of friendship, you're playing like this? Two pounds of pancakes, you're so generous!" Di Lintian said, infuriated.
"..."
In front of the public, Di Lintian and Ye Tianshi started arguing, which left many speechless.
Ye Chen had just slaughtered a Great Saint, in a very tense atmosphere, couldn't they be more considerate?
"Ye Chen, don't mind them, give the Great Saint title to me!" The old ancestor of Holy Flame ran to Ye Chen, trying to get close to his grandson.
"Great-grandfather!" Ye Chen respectfully called out.
The old ancestor of Holy Flame was his mother's grandfather, thus his great-grandfather, very close blood relation!
Moreover, the old ancestor of Holy Flame treated Ye Chen very well and expected much from him, inviting him to join the Holy Flame Palace numerous times.
So, Ye Chen treated the old ancestor with great respect, not only for his mother but also for himself, because this elder truly cared for him!
"Ye Chen, you've already comprehended the epic path. Keeping the Great Saint title is useless; why not give it to your grandpa... what do you say?" The old ancestor of Holy Flame smiled at Ye Chen, smiling so much that wrinkles appeared, like teasing a child.
"No!" Ye Chen shook his head.
"..."
The old ancestor's smile froze, wanting to give Ye Chen a thump on the head, this boy really lacked respect for elders!
"Ye Chen, Ye Chen, look over here!"
At this point, Saint Chen Yun, Skeleton Monarch, and Yan Hun also gathered around, wanting to get close to Ye Chen to obtain the Great Saint title.
"Seniors..." Ye Chen also gave a bow to them.
Ye Chen was not arrogant or discourteous; the likes of the Skeleton Monarch had helped him, so he naturally had to be courteous.
"Ye Chen, when you left the Canglan Realm, you attracted the siege of the Saints. It was us who broke the deadlock for you!" Yan Hun said. "Now that you've mastered the epic path, invincible and brilliant, you're not going to forget us, are you?"
"Senior's great kindness, how could I dare forget!" Ye Chen said seriously.
Back then, because Ye Chen possessed the demon jar and was the lord of Qilin, he attracted the covetous eyes of the Saints, running into a deadly crisis!
Thanks to the assistance of these few in front of him, Ye Chen was able to escape the calamity, how could he forget such a favor? How dare he forget?
"I'm glad you haven't forgotten. Now we're in trouble, it's time for you to repay the favor!" Yan Hun said. "Dragon Esteem stole my beloved, and I've always wanted to defeat him and restore my honor! Will you lend me a hand and give me the Great Saint title?"
"..."
Yan Hun is a peculiar being, with a bloodline power that is far more transcendent than the Dragon Clan.
However, Yan Hun was quite unfortunate, for he was born at the wrong time, encountering the fiercely formidable Dragon Esteem!
In that lifetime, not only was Yan Hun outshone by Dragon Esteem, even his beloved was taken!
This directly led Yan Hun to a state of dejection, his heart cold and dispirited!
Yet, after thousands of years of settling, Yan Hun had let go of the mental burden and become invigorated once more.
However, the pain that Dragon Esteem inflicted on him, Yan Hun can never forget, so he longed to become a Great Saint, defeat Dragon Esteem, and restore his honor!
"Senior Yan Hun, let me be blunt, even if you become a Great Saint, you still won't be a match for Dragon Esteem..." Ye Chen smiled wryly.
Dragon Esteem is among the strongest of Great Saints, almost reaching the limit of Houtian, just a step away from understanding the epic, becoming a great calamity!
Yan Hun is currently just a Human King; even if he obtained the Great Saint title and became a Great Saint Golden Body, it would be impossible to be a match for Dragon Esteem.
"You brat, you married Dragon Esteem's daughter, now you're backing him to criticize me!" Yan Hun's face darkened, very unhappy.
"Hehe!" Ye Chen smiled helplessly, he wasn't taking sides, he was just stating the facts!
"Ye Chen, with so many of us here, who will you give the title to?"
At this moment, Di Lintian, Ye Tianshi, and other such individuals asked together, wanting Ye Chen to make a choice.
There is only one Great Saint Position, which can only achieve one person. Whom would Ye Chen wish to accomplish?
"I just said, I will give it to no one!" Ye Chen shook his head and said, not intending to send out the Great Saint Position.
"Damn, you really are joking with us!" Di Lintian and others glared and said.
"No!" Ye Chen said. "I can give you the Great Saint Position, and if it's not enough, I can even hunt other Great Saints to complete your Great Saint Positions!"
"However, if I give you the Great Saint Positions, would you gladly accept?" Ye Chen looked at Di Lintian, looked at Ye Tianshi, and at this group of seniors.
"..."
An eerie thing occurred; Di Lintian, Rock Soul, and the others fell silent, unexpectedly no longer demanding.
"You are all peak Human Kings, capable of cultivating into Great Saints, it's just a matter of time!" Ye Chen said. "But, if you accept my gift, it would be unearned, would this kind of power be what you want?"
Saint Chen Yun, Skeleton Monarch, Di Lintian are all peak Human Kings, the beings closest to Great Saints!
Rock Soul, Ye Tianshi, and Old Ancestor of Heavenly Fire are also making rapid progress. Even if they can't rival Di Lintian and others, they've still reached the peak Human King level!
Such a group of peak Human Kings, all have the capability to cultivate into Great Saints. How could they be willing to accept charity?
"Indeed!" Di Lintian suddenly sighed. "I have struggled in the Realm of the Human King for too long, constantly wishing to cultivate into a Great Saint! So, when I saw the Great Saint Position, my mind was a little disturbed, and I forgot the original purpose of cultivation!"
"True strength is cultivated by oneself; how could it be something gifted by others?"
The strength cultivated by oneself, and the strength given by others, are absolutely vastly different, perhaps worlds apart!
Di Lintian and others can cultivate into Human Kings; their characters are extremely rebellious. How could they be willing to accept charity?
Earlier, when they saw the Great Saint Position, they were somewhat excited. Thus, they forgot the essence of cultivation and wanted to take a shortcut.
However, with just a slight reminder from Ye Chen, they suddenly became aware, and understood everything.
Moreover, Ye Tianshi, Di Lintian, and others looked at Ye Chen again, their eyes now held something different!
Although Ye Chen is young, his vision and understanding of the Dao have already surpassed theirs.
"Ye Chen, we don't want this Great Saint Position anymore!" Di Lintian said in a deep voice.
"Yes, we don't want it anymore!"
Saint Chen Yun, Skeleton Monarch also nodded in agreement. They are all extreme Human Kings, and if they obtain fortune and opportunity, they might completely cultivate into Great Saints by themselves!
So, after figuring out everything, their desire for the Great Saint Position wasn't so strong anymore!
"You all, esteemed seniors, have thoroughly comprehended, which truly earns my admiration. Such virtue, such virtue!" Ye Chen extolled. "However, since you all don't want this Great Saint Position, I'll give it to someone else!"
"..."
Ye Chen chatted jovially, making them quite happy since everyone loves to hear nice words.
Yet, Ye Chen's last words made their expressions stiff, and they felt rather uncomfortable.
What does it mean you don't want it, so I'll give it to someone else?
Is it really because they don't want it? Clearly, it's because Ye Chen isn't giving it!
"Saint Jue Qing!"
Ye Chen no longer paid attention to Di Lintian and others, but instead looked towards the ten continents of Canglan, calling out a name.
Saint Jue Qing, a peerless beauty, is also the Vice Palace Master of Baihua Palace!
"Ye Chen!"
A woman appeared in the nine heavens, dazedly looking at Ye Chen, her beautiful eyes shimmering with a strange light.
This woman is pure and otherworldly, so beautiful that she seems not of the mortal world, precisely Saint Jue Qing, a legendary Saint woman renowned across the ten continents!
"I didn't expect that after I left, you had already cultivated into a Human King!" Ye Chen sighed, looking at Saint Jue Qing.
Previously, Saint Jue Qing was just a peak Saint, a long way from the Realm of the Human King.
But, in only a few years after Ye Chen left, Saint Jue Qing had cultivated into a Human King. Such a rate of growth is indeed quite startling!
"Haha, do I cultivate fast? Are you belittling me?" Saint Jue Qing gave a bitter smile. "When you left the Canglan Realm, you were still a person on the other shore, but now you have become epic... How dare I compare speed with you?"
Saint Jue Qing had gained some fortune, hence her rapid progress, cultivating into an unparalleled Human King!
However, compared to Ye Chen's speed of cultivation, she is simply like a minor witch before a great sorcerer, a difference like heaven and earth!
"There is only one of me in this world, your progress is already quite remarkable!" Ye Chen praised.
"..."
Ye Chen's mature demeanor made Saint Jue Qing feel strange, as if she were the junior and Ye Chen the elder.
However, in cultivation, the one who attains first is more respected. Since Ye Chen's cultivation far surpasses hers, after some thought, Saint Jue Qing felt at ease.
"Did you find out?" Ye Chen suddenly asked.
"Hmm?" Saint Jue Qing frowned slightly.
"You have cultivated into the Human King body and also the ultimate Heavenly Eye. Though they've achieved something, it's definitely not something they can hide from you!" Ye Chen said. "So, you should have found out about it all!"
Ye Chen was asking if Saint Jue Qing discovered something, referring to matters concerning Qin Yan, Feng Wu, Lingyun and the others.
In the past, Saint Jue Qing's cultivation was not enough to see through everything. However, now that she has cultivated into a Human King, she surely can see through it all!
"You bastard!"
Sure enough, once Saint Jue Qing understood his meaning, she immediately started to scold Ye Chen, her small face blushing.
