"So, even if I have an invincible heart, I still need to plan before I act!" Ye Chen sighed.

The evidence Ye Chen presented was utterly unreasonable, a deliberate attempt to get rid of these women.

Ye Chen wasn't the heartless jerk; he was simply afraid that if he really perished, those women would be heartbroken. So he used such a foolish method, hoping these goddesses would resent him. That way, even if he died in battle, the women wouldn't be so sad.

"Ye Chen, this isn't right," Yun Xianghan looked at Ye Chen and said seriously. "Pretending to be noble and dumping them, do you understand their feelings?"

"What do you mean?" Ye Chen was somewhat puzzled.

"Those women are no pushovers. You dump them now, thinking it's simple, even feeling somewhat relieved and happy. But when the day comes that you want to win them back, it'll be difficult!" Yun Xianghan warned. "You and Na Wudao haven't started the battle yet, and they're still worried and afraid for you, so if you want to make amends, it's not that difficult!"

"But when you are safe and sound, and you want to make amends, do you think those women will easily forgive you?"

"Why can't they forgive me? They should be able to guess my intentions, right?" Ye Chen said uncertainly.

"Even if they know, they won't forgive you!" Yun Xianghan said. "Didn't I just say that your behavior is pretending to be noble, and it makes them very uncomfortable?"

"So, even if you meant well, they will still resent you because you didn't let them share the pressure with you. You've treated them as outsiders!" Yun Xianghan analyzed earnestly.

"..." Ye Chen had initially thought it was nothing, but after Yun Xianghan's words, why did he feel such a tightness in his heart?

"What should I do now?" Ye Chen asked coldly.

"Hurry up and roll over there, bow your head, admit your mistakes, and ask for forgiveness!" Yun Xianghan said.

"This..." Ye Chen opened his mouth, wanting to give a speech as if he was accepting an award, but he said nothing.

"Forget it, let's wait until after my battle with Na Wudao. I'll go and ask these women for forgiveness." Ye Chen sighed heavily.

"Alright, I've already warned you anyway!" Yun Xianghan said helplessly.

"With your reminder, my heart feels chilled!" Ye Chen covered his chest, pretending to be pitiful.

"That's what you deserve for recklessly dumping goddesses; you'll see what's coming to you!" Yun Xianghan expressed no sympathy for Ye Chen.

"..."

The final day before the ultimate battle was approaching fast.

At the South Sea, where heroes converged from all directions, some were going crazy.

Desperate to challenge Ye Chen before the battle began, they searched for him tirelessly, but no matter how hard they looked, they came up empty-handed!

All signs indicated that Ye Chen had not come to the South Sea, leaving some powerhouses disheartened. They believed Ye Chen feared the Dragon King's might and didn't dare to face him in combat!

In reality, while the heroes were searching for Ye Chen, the hotel where he was staying had been searched by several groups of strong individuals.

However, those powerhouses ultimately found nothing… because behind the scenes, someone was protecting Ye Chen, keeping his whereabouts secret.

The person in the South Sea who could achieve this was, of course, the lord of the South Sea, Na Wudao.

After Ye Chen arrived at the South Sea, he didn't intentionally hide his tracks. Thus, Ye Chen's movements had always been under Na Wudao's control. Ye Chen had traveled a great distance to battle him; as the host, Na Wudao naturally had to smooth out some troubles for Ye Chen.

South Sea was Na Wudao's battlefield. His martial will was integrated with the South Sea. On this familiar land, Na Wudao could exert 120% of his combat strength!

By inviting Ye Chen to the South Sea for battle, Na Wudao already had a great advantage. Therefore, as the host, he must treat Ye Chen, his guest, with proper hospitality.

Some ordinary people wanted to defeat Ye Chen, thus making a name for themselves, but Ye Chen didn't appear—not because he was afraid of these people, but because he simply had no interest in paying them any mind.

Ye Chen and those people were not on the same level; he was now the ultimate battle immortal. Was there any need for him to act like a saint among a bunch of grandmasters? Or to beat up the Nine Dragons, kick the Ten Dragons, just to show off his own might?

Ye Chen wouldn't do such boring things; right now, he only wanted to wait for the ultimate battle to begin, his opponent was only Na Wudao!

Na Wudao evidently knew this, so he provided Ye Chen with a serene atmosphere, concealing his whereabouts from heaven and earth, so that Ye Chen wouldn't be disturbed by those ordinary people.

In those three days, Ye Chen and Yun Xianghan had nothing but fun shopping and playing, their happiness reaching its peak.

Dusk.

On the eve of Ye Chen's decisive battle with Na Wudao, a woman wearing sunglasses arrived at the hotel where Ye Chen was hiding.

The woman's features were concealed by the sunglasses, revealing only her bright red lips, which made people's thoughts wander.

Although the woman's face couldn't be seen, her figure was very good, clearly of goddess caliber.

This woman came to the hotel, didn't go to the front desk to register, but directly entered the elevator, as if she was looking for someone.

"..."

"Ding dong!"

"Ding dong!"

Ye Chen and Yun Xianghan were playfully wrestling when suddenly the room's doorbell rang.

"Hmm, who is it?" Ye Chen was startled.

After checking into the hotel, Na Wudao had concealed Ye Chen's traces, and no one dared to disturb him.

But now, someone was ringing the doorbell. Had they been discovered?

"I don't know who's outside, but if they're people trying to challenge me, I'll just cripple them all, toss them from the tenth floor to the first, and let them know that even gods can get angry!" Ye Chen went to open the door, wanting to see who was visiting late at night.

"Who are you?" Ye Chen opened the door to see a woman, a woman whose face was covered by sunglasses, a mask, and a hat.

"Ye Chen!" Upon seeing Ye Chen, the woman immediately threw herself into his arms.

"Chu Yanran, how did you find your way here?" Ye Chen asked, somewhat surprised.

Chu Yanran was wrapped up tightly, not revealing her face even now, but as soon as Ye Chen heard her voice, he knew it was Empress Chu.

Her voice, her breath, they were all familiar to Ye Chen; she was Chu Yanran.

"Ye Chen, where have you been these three years, I've missed you so much!" Chu Yanran said.

Ye Chen, feeling Chu Yanran's longing, quickly let her into the room and softly comforted her.

"Ye Chen, you're finally here, I've missed you so much I've gone crazy!" Chu Yanran looked at Ye Chen with tears streaming down her face.

"Why cry? Don't you still have Tong Xingtong?" Ye Chen said heartlessly with a smile.

"You wouldn't dump me too, would you?" Chu Yanran's face took on a horrified expression at these words, as if remembering something terrible.

"I've dumped you long ago, didn't I have Tong Xingtong pass that message to you? Don't you know?" Ye Chen looked genuinely surprised.
