Above the South Sea.

The proud sun dims, soon to set behind the mountains.

It was already approaching six o'clock, and the sky was somewhat overcast, with nightfall just over an hour away.

But Ye Chen still hadn't arrived!

"Su Binglan, do you think Ye Chen has run away?" Liu Shihua had been silent, silent for a whole day, but now she just couldn't keep quiet any longer.

Ye Chen was set to fight Na Wudao, and the goddesses who held him dear naturally all gathered to watch.

However, the goddesses had waited left and right, and yet Ye Chen hadn't shown up, which left them all somewhat disappointed.

"Fighting is what Ye Chen loves most, with such a good opponent as Na Wudao here, how could Ye Chen flee without a fight?" Su Binglan said.

"Then why hasn't he come?" Liu Shihua asked.

"You ask me, how should I know?" Su Binglan raised an eyebrow, seemingly somewhat displeased. "During yesterday's selection, all of you accepted Chu Yanran's gifts and agreed to let her infiltrate the enemy, and now Chu Yanran is gone, Ye Chen too, this is the sin you've all committed!"

"..."

Yesterday, Chu Yanran had come to the South Sea, and with a group of goddesses, she visited Yi Shuiqing and obtained Ye Chen's location information.

Therefore, the group of goddesses unanimously decided to elect one goddess to visit Ye Chen at the hotel.

Both Su Binglan and Chu Yanran wanted to secure this sole opportunity.

But Chu Yanran was a clever and shrewd empress; with luxurious bribes, she easily defeated Su Binglan and won the exclusive chance to visit Ye Chen.

However, Chu Yanran went and never returned, and now Ye Chen also failed to appear, which made the group of goddesses panic. Could it be that Ye Chen was so excited to see Chu Yanran that he accidentally twisted his waist?

"Su Binglan, I think it's unlikely that Ye Chen will come. Shall we all head back on the same path and look for Ye Chen in the hotel?" Li Yan suggested.

"Stop the nonsense, just wait!"

"..."

"Damn it, is that kid coming or not? If not, I should head home for dinner!" a powerful figure roared.

"That kid is named Ye Chen, right? I've been holding it in all day for him; is he coming or not!" a female fighter also grew angry.

"This little thief is too annoying, leaving everyone waiting!"

"He's so arrogant, does he not fear the teacher's criticism?"

"Let's disperse, this kid doesn't dare to come!"

"..."

As the light faded, Ye Chen's continued absence had thoroughly worried some of the powerful individuals.

Even the highly revered Nine Dragons and the Ten Dragons Taboo, and even Land God immortals were getting anxious. Could this young man truly dare to stand them up?

The powerful figures gathered above the sea were renowned experts from all over, forming a supremely luxurious lineup!

The mysterious and unfathomable Di, the majestic and invincible Dragon Head; such superior beings appeared to pay attention to this battle. If Ye Chen stood up these individuals, he would undoubtedly become famous all over the world!

"Could it be that he has encountered some difficulty, which is why he cannot attend this decisive battle?" Na Wudao, like a Dragon King, was coiled above the sea, gazing at the vast waves as if searching for something.

"A life-or-death showdown between two ultimate fighting immortals was supposed to be earth-shattering. Who would have thought it would end this way, truly disappointing!" Di sighed softly, sounding disappointed.

"Ye Chen, have you really retreated without a fight?" Yun Zheyue said.

At this moment, the sky had darkened, and after a day of waiting, Ye Chen still had not appeared, which made the gathered heroes curse in frustration, clamoring about going home for dinner.

However, just as the heroes began to think of retreating and wanted to leave the South Sea, a figure appeared in the very far distance.

"Look, someone is coming! There's a figure in the distance!" a powerful figure suddenly exclaimed, spotting someone rushing over.

"This person's speed is so fast, in just a few breaths, he has traveled dozens of miles across the waves!" someone said in shock as they watched the figure.

"Could this person be Ye Chen?" someone questioned.

"..."

As daylight faded and the heroes were about to retreat, a figure suddenly appeared, undoubtedly causing a surge in everyone's nerves.

"Ye Chen has arrived!"

Yun Zheyue's eyes burst with brilliance as he clearly identified the newcomer, it was absolutely Ye Chen.

"He has finally come!" Na Wudao stood tall in the sky, looking at the approaching figure.

The sudden appearance of this figure brought a solemn air to Na Wudao, and without needing further thought, the heroes knew it must be Ye Chen.

Ye Chen moved with extreme speed, gliding over the waves; his eyes were crystal clear, emitting a mystical glow.

Ye Chen saw the gathering of heroes, saw his goddesses, saw the gods sitting high above, saw Yun Zheyue, saw an emperor, saw all kinds of everything!

But when Ye Chen's gaze fell upon an old man, he could no longer shift his eyes away.

There was an old man with white hair and beard, his face beamed with peace, making anyone looking at him feel as if bathed in divinity.

However, this old man carried an unfathomable terror, like a pillar anchoring the sea, just standing there, he seemed to have subdued the entire South Sea!

This old man was Na Wudao, the master of the South Sea, the Sea King!

"Hmm?"

Ye Chen came like the wind, with breathtaking speed, arrived among the heroes, and seemed to approach Na Wudao, but was stopped by someone.

"Now this will be a spectacle!" Some powerhouses laughed with schadenfreude upon witnessing such a scene.

Ye Chen, a young junior, was deeply doubted by the heroes; they didn't believe he qualified for a battle with Na Wudao!

Before today, many strong figures had wanted to find Ye Chen and defeat this great enemy of the Sea King, to spread their fame across the four seas!

Yet Ye Chen had been absent, depriving some heroes of the opportunity, but now that he had made his presence known so boldly, some finally could no longer contain themselves!

"Are you Ye Chen?" The one blocking the way had an aura like a dragon, a Qingyun powerhouse, looking at Ye Chen with a cold and unfriendly gaze.

"Why do you block my path, do I know you?" Ye Chen asked, visibly displeased; the sky was nearly dark, and he still had to fight before he could go to bed with his wife.

"What gives you, a junior, the right to challenge the Sea King?" The Qingyun powerhouse said with a look of disapproval.

"Alright, are you trying to say, to challenge the Sea King, I have to defeat you first, right?" Ye Chen said with a light smile, clearly understanding the man's intentions.

"Exactly!" the Qingyun powerhouse said arrogantly. "If you can't even beat me, what makes you think you're qualified to fight the old Sea King?"

"Back off!" Ye Chen commanded the Qingyun powerhouse in a low shout.

"What makes you think..." the Qingyun powerhouse began to bluster, but then he noticed Ye Chen's icy gaze and the overwhelming aura emerging from him. It shook his spirit, seemingly stripped his strength away, and his legs went weak, causing him to fall into the sea.

"..."

As the Qingyun powerhouse sank into the sea, he was like a small pebble creating only a tiny splash.

However, as the Qingyun powerhouse fell into the sea, the area seemed to come to a standstill.
