"Ye Chen will never be defeated, but there's one thing I don't understand — why won't he look at me!" Su Binglan fumed, her fists clenched tightly as she watched Ye Chen.

Ever since Ye Chen had arrived, Su Binglan had been observing him closely.

However, to her utter astonishment, Ye Chen seemed blind to a group of goddesses, not sparing them a single glance from beginning to end.

Had he truly renounced all sentiment and affection? Su Binglan thought uneasily.

"O highest among the Ten Dragons, great immortals, I implore you to take care of this demon, and stop him from wreaking havoc upon the world!"

Some Grandmasters looked towards the Ten Dragons Taboo and the Land Gods, hoping these mighty beings would intervene and suppress the menace of Ye Chen.

"I've wanted to beat him up for a while, but I'm no match for him," one of the Ten Dragons Taboo said.

"Let him jump around for a bit. Once I ascend as a high-level combat immortal, I'll come and suppress this demon!" one of the Land Gods said somewhat sheepishly, intimidated by Ye Chen's formidable presence and reluctant to make a move.

These Ten Dragons soaring in the skies and the Land Gods each had their troubles, for Ye Chen's performance was simply too stunning, and even they hesitated to blunt his edge.

If they failed to break a needle's point and ended up piercing their own fingers, it would truly be a great loss.

"Great beings, you can join forces!" Seeing the strongest hesitating, someone immediately called out to remind them.

"Right, like Ye Chen just said, you can team up and take a beating! Just set aside your pride temporarily, form a team, and together you can beat him up!" someone suggested.

"Hurry up and beat him up, this guy is so infuriating, he's nearly given me a heart attack!"

"If you kill him, I'll treat you to dinner, massage your feet, live it up!"

"..."

The heroes surrounded the mightiest, persuading them to join forces and combat the disaster that was Ye Chen.

"All of us combined are over two thousand years old, teaming up to deal with a young lad in his twenties. Wouldn't that become a laughing stock to the world if word got out?"

These Ten Dragons Taboo and Land Gods were all proud beings filled with arrogance. How could they agree to join forces to suppress someone younger?

Moreover, although Ye Chen's cultivation was fearsome, he was still a junior. How could a bunch of old relics like them gang up on a child? If that got out, how would they ever mix in the circles of the strongest again?

They could join hands, but the person worth their suppression would at least have to be an emperor, the Dragon King of the South Sea, or someone of that caliber.

Thus, no matter how much the heroes urged them, those Ten Dragons and immortals simply refused to join forces.

However, as the heroes felt helpless and unable to persuade the powerful to take action, Ye Chen began to help.

Ye Chen was a good person, always willing to help others, selfless, and sacrificial. So he spoke up to help.

"These tiny weaklings have been persuading you for minutes; can you hurry it up!" Ye Chen yelled at a group of the strongest.

"I know you want to join forces to suppress me, but you keep to your own dignity, fearing you'd bully the weak and be scorned by the world!"

"But you don't need to worry, because you can't beat me!"

"Quickly form a team and come take your beating. I'm busy with a major battle here; I don't have time to mess around with you!"

Ye Chen appeared quite displeased, showing a reckless bravado in front of the heroes, making some of them feel as if they were dreaming. Could this guy be any more arrogant?

This was a group of Ten Dragons Taboo and Land Gods. Was Ye Chen not afraid of truly angering them and getting killed by a joint attack from the Land Gods?

Disaster — this was definitely a disaster!

"This guy doesn't even bother to fight, he's straight onto warming up the crowd," one emperor observed Ye Chen's smug face and the heroes' exasperated expressions, a bizarre smile appearing on his face as if amused by Ye Chen's outlandish behavior.

"Strange, I can't see through Ye Chen's cultivation!" Yun Zheyue did not smile; she looked at Ye Chen with a grave expression as if she had discovered something serious.

Yun Zheyue's cultivation was the highest, deemed the foremost below the other shore of this world, even superior to an emperor or Na Wudao.

Ye Chen had always seemed dangerous to Yun Zheyue, but it was a danger she could handle.

However, now she no longer felt threatened by Ye Chen, which startled her.

The lack of danger wasn't because she had grown stronger, rather Ye Chen had, surpassing the level she could comprehend.

"His body isn't exuding the power of spirits and gods, which means he hasn't ascended to become a Land God. But how can he have grown so much stronger!"

"Ye Chen must have made a breakthrough; otherwise, he wouldn't be this powerful, but he is already at the limit of Ten Dragons. Even with a breakthrough, what more could he achieve?"

Ye Chen's elusive and harmless nature puzzled and shocked Yun Zheyue.

Despite Ye Chen not yet attaining the power to control spirits and ascend as a Land God, how could he have become even stronger?

"No, how has Ye Chen become even stronger!" exclaimed the Emperor with a change in expression, also noticing something extraordinary.

The Emperor had exchanged blows with Ye Chen, and even came close to a life and death battle. Ye Chen's cultivation was very strong, and his martial foundation was unfathomable, but the Emperor felt that Ye Chen's strength, at best, was only on par with hers.

However, now in the eyes of the Emperor, Ye Chen seemed immeasurably deep. Within just a few days, had Ye Chen achieved Transcendence?

"At the Ten Dragons Realm, one can unleash the ultimate power of a War Celestial, which is already the limit for humans. How could Ye Chen seem to have exceeded this limit?"

"If Ye Chen has transcended limits, doesn't that mean he is stronger than me, even Na Wudao?"

The Emperor looked at Ye Chen, her eyes shimmering with admiration, incredulity, and a hint of jealousy!

"The battle between Na Wudao and Ye Chen was originally evenly matched, incredibly tough to differentiate winner from loser, but now Ye Chen seems to have made another breakthrough, putting Na Wudao in big trouble!" The Emperor looked towards Na Wudao, her expression calm, making it hard to tell if she was happy or worried.

"There are only a few people in the world who can pose a threat to me, and they have long since lost their challenge to me," Na Wudao said as he watched Ye Chen, his eyes gleaming as if stars were falling. "However, Ye Chen's emergence has given me a sense of crisis unlike before. I actually cannot see through him!"

Na Wudao, the ruler of the South Sea and Dragon King of the sea, sat enthroned above the South Sea. His spirit had merged with the South Sea, granting him inscrutable abilities!

In such a state, even Yun Zheyue would feel apprehensive because battling Na Wudao was like battling the boundless ocean, which could evoke a sense of powerlessness!

Yet, even such a fearsome Dragon King could not decipher Ye Chen!

"I don't know if you've concealed your aura or have become too strong to fathom, but the stronger you are, the happier I am, because I need enough pressure. Only with infinite suppression can I strive forward and achieve Transcendence immediately," Na Wudao said as he looked at Ye Chen, his eyes bursting with an astonishing brilliance. He wasn't afraid of Ye Chen being too strong; he only feared that Ye Chen wasn't strong enough.

"Still, just how strong have you become? That's what I'm really looking forward to!"

Na Wudao's face was void of sadness and joy, his body radiating terrifying divine might, like a Dragon King residing in the world.

Yet, the look Na Wudao gave Ye Chen was mixed with some indescribable nuances.

"Ladies and gentlemen!"

Suddenly, Na Wudao spoke loudly, his booming voice leveling the tumultuous waves, striking at numerous mighty hearts.

"Hmm, what does Na Wudao want to say?" the Emperor raised an eyebrow.

"..."

Ye Chen's arrogance was too extreme, tantamount to courting death, not only inciting many supremely strong beings but also those from the Ten Dragons, Land Gods, wishing to cast aside their statuses to capture and beat him up thoroughly.

In the face of the indignation of many heroes, Ye Chen remained unrepentant, going his own way, oblivious to death, ready to battle everyone.

However, at this critical moment, Na Wudao suddenly spoke up. What was this old Dragon King planning to do—was he perhaps going to protect Ye Chen?

Na Wudao was a transcendent existence; his cultivation was not inferior to the Emperor's, his prestige no less than that of a majestic dragon head. This colossus, revered in the South Sea and heralded as the Dragon King.

This titan's words were clear and straightforward — since Ye Chen was his opponent, it was natural that he should be the one to defeat him!

"Dragon King, are you saying that we should not suppress Ye Chen, and that you want to personally subdue him?" cried out a powerful voice.

"Dragon King, rest assured, we definitely won't harm a single hair on Ye Chen, allowing you to fight a lively jumping Ye Chen!" someone expressed understanding of the Dragon King's intention.

"Dragon King, may I ask you one thing? When you fight Ye Chen, don't kill him straight away; first tear his mouth, then beat him to death while he's still alive!"

"Dragon King, you must avenge us, this Ye Chen is too hated, please don't kill him outright, torture him half to death then slowly finish him off!"

"Dragon King, we promise not to kill Ye Chen, please come and take care of this demon!"

"..."

Before Na Wudao could clarify his stance, the gathered heroes started clamoring, insisting that Na Wudao subdue Ye Chen and then slowly torture him to death.

Ye Chen's ignorant arrogance successfully attracted the hatred of the heroes. Everyone loathed him to the core, wishing they could eat his boogers and drink his urine...

"I understand what you mean, but I am old and not as vigorous as young people," Na Wudao's voice echoed over the South Sea, but he stopped midway, leaving his attitude ambiguous.

"Na Wudao has also noticed Ye Chen's extraordinariness!" Yun Zheyue thought to herself.

"What does this Dragon King mean, he isn't planning to gather the heroes to beat up Ye Chen, is he?" wondered the Emperor, her face displaying a peculiar expression.

"..."

When the heroes heard Na Wudao's words, they were all momentarily stunned, and the previously lively atmosphere disappeared.

The old Dragon King said he was old and not as vigorous as the young, what did this mean, did the Dragon King admit he was inferior to Ye Chen?

The heroes fell silent, wanting to know what this highly respected Dragon King really meant.

"I would like to ask everyone to take action and help me defeat Ye Chen!" Na Wudao, sitting in the void, looked at the heroes from all directions, unabashedly speaking.
