"This is too terrifying!"

Ye Chen's face was somber, hundreds of soaring vital energies intertwined, as if they could knock down the stars from the sky—how could such a scene not be frightening?

Lei Tianhu, Li Xiaoran, Luo Tianyang, Yang Zui, Lu Tianya… one after another, renowned figures were all gathering here.

Ye Chen looked at those among the Nine Dragons Supreme, only to find that none of them was the person he was looking for.

Ye Chen was searching for Na Wudao, eager to witness the grandeur of the South Sea Dragon King, who was as famous as the King of Chaos and also one of the Nine Dragons Supreme!

Ye Chen and Na Wudao had a pre-arranged battle, both wishing to use the other as a stepping stone to ascend to immortality. Ye Chen wanted to know just how strong Na Wudao truly was, to be fully prepared!

However, Na Wudao was unexpectedly absent from such a lavish banquet born from the emergence of the cave haven?!

"Hm?"

Ye Chen felt a sense of alertness, aware that someone was watching him.

"The Dragon King's son, Nan Zhiji!"

Ye Chen turned and locked eyes with that person, feeling a thunderous shake in his heart.

There were several sons of the South Sea Dragon King, each remarkably exceptional, but among the sons, the most terrifying was the eldest, Nan Zhiji!

Nan Zhiji was of extraordinary talent, born with an innocent heart, and had been meticulously guided by Na Wudao, acquiring a terrifying strength to the extreme.

Nan Zhiji ranked among the Four Elites, possessing the strength of the top ten of the Qingyun, and in a few more years, he might well become another South Sea Dragon King!

Ye Chen had seen the South Sea Dragon King once, and when he met Na Wudao, Nan Zhiji was in attendance by his father's side, not displaying any divine skills.

At that time, Ye Chen had wondered how the son of a Dragon King could be so mediocre and inactive?

However, had it not been for Ye Chen's swift progress, venturing into new realms, he might still be unaware of Nan Zhiji's terrifying nature.

The man was not mediocre or inactive, but had hidden his depths too well!

In the end, Ye Chen and Nan Zhiji exchanged glances, each acknowledging the other, before retracting their gazes.

Nan Zhiji recognized Ye Chen, and one might even say his impression was deep, given that Ye Chen had a promised battle with his father, Na Wudao!

Initially, Nan Zhiji doubted Ye Chen's qualifications, but Ye Chen's actions had conveyed to Nan Zhiji that he was indeed worthy!

As more and more characters of various hues made their entrance, the number of Grandmaster figures grew and had already surpassed four hundred!

Suddenly, Ye Chen's eyelid twitched, and then he, looking disheveled, hid behind the three kings.

Fang Ruolan approached with an aloof expression, as she lightly stepped across the sea, followed by a towering figure.

"Are you afraid of me?"

Fang Ruolan confronted Ye Chen, her face radiating an icy chill.

"..."

Ye Chen felt some trepidation, as Fang Ruolan seemed able to pinpoint his location, no matter where he hid; this Saintess Fang could always find him.

"Why are you hiding from her?" The War King dragged out the concealed Ye Chen. "This woman is so beautiful, definitely the best choice for a wife. She's offering herself on a platter now, just take her!"

Fang Ruolan, being the Miaojiang Saintess, was protected by the powerful Indestructible Vajra Gu, but the War King, one of the top ten Qingyun figures, would not fear a mere Gu corpse. He spoke with such domineering presence, practically goading Ye Chen to seize Fang Ruolan and make her his chief bride.

"I'm willing, but you ask him if he dares?" Fang Ruolan said with a light laugh.

"Heh heh." Ye Chen gave a somewhat rigid chuckle.

"Ye Chen, I see an acquaintance and need to catch up on old times," said the King of the Chaotic Era, before he moved off.

"My brother's acquaintance is my acquaintance, I'm going to catch up too!" declared the War King boisterously.

"Big Brother's acquaintance is naturally Second Brother's acquaintance, and thus, it is also my acquaintance. You two are chatting here; I'll join in to build some connections too." In the end, King Xiao also left.

"..." Ye Chen was somewhat dumbfounded by the three kings' odd behavior.

Amidst hundreds of Grandmasters, the Three Troublemakers moved like shadows and disappeared in a blink of an eye, obviously intending to leave Ye Chen behind.

"Fang, please don't take it amiss. My three grandfathers have always been unrestrained and do whatever they please!" Ye Chen chuckled awkwardly.

Confronting Fang Ruolan, Ye Chen inevitably felt a bit intimidated. After all, he had refined her life-bound Gu King, and her master seemed to be furious about it, even wanting to come after him to kill him...

"They are your grandfathers?" Fang Ruolan asked doubtfully.

"Indeed, all of them are my grandfathers!" Ye Chen was quite confident. Fang Ruolan had her master to seek revenge for her, but Ye Chen had his three grandfathers to protect him; he was unafraid of her!

"They, all of them, are your blood grandfathers?" Fang Ruolan considered for a moment, completely perplexed.

"..."

Ye Chen felt a metaphorical stab in the chest and found it hard to breathe. Fang Ruolan's remark was a vicious blow, striking right at his sore spot!

"That day, at the Peak Group meeting, I did not reveal my whereabouts at all, yet you somehow found my hiding spot!"

"Today, with hundreds of Grandmasters here and the scene in total chaos, you still managed to find me!"

"Fang, did you cast some Gu on me to pinpoint my location?" Ye Chen thought of a possibility, and his whole body was shocked.

"Hehe."

Fang Ruolan smiled like a blossoming flower, her expression gradually turning cool.

"Am I, or am I not, under a Gu spell from you?" Ye Chen spoke with a grave tone.

This was indeed a serious matter, because Ye Chen had repeatedly introspected but had not detected any Gu presence inside him.

"Yes and no," Fang Ruolan said mysteriously.

"..."

The cold smirk on Fang Ruolan's face, tinged with mystery, made Ye Chen even more petrified.

"Fang, even though we've met a few times, our relationship isn't exactly friendly!"

"Since we are clearly not close, let's not gather to talk, alright?"

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he wanted to step away and escape Fang Ruolan's entanglement. This Miaojiang Saintess made him feel utterly repulsed.

"No way!" Fang Ruolan stepped in front of Ye Chen.

"What exactly do you want to do!" Ye Chen demanded.

Fang Ruolan was shrouded in a black robe, which couldn't conceal her beauty, but facing the beautiful and proud Fang, Ye Chen felt as though he were haunted by a specter.

"I want you dead, to watch you die!" Fang Ruolan spoke softly.

"..." Ye Chen was thoroughly distressed.

"In this cavern resides something my master desires. Once she descends, your end will come!" Fang Ruolan said chillingly. "I want to watch you, not miss a single moment, to watch you die!"

Hearing that a Land God was about to descend, Ye Chen couldn't help but feel a tremor in his heart, especially since this deity was coming to kill him!

However, Ye Chen was not overtly fearful of this. He wore a special dragon-head ring, a symbol that should deter even Land Gods. Moreover, the great dragon's head was patrolling this realm, so if a Land God did attempt to take his life, the dragon's head would likely intervene to save him!

"Fang Ruolan, are you crazy? Why the hell are you staring at me all the time?!" Ye Chen said, feeling uneasy from her gaze.

While Fang was an exceptionally beautiful woman and Ye Chen generally enjoyed being watched by a beauty, this was the first time he felt uneasy being ogled like this.
