"Fairy Sister, she told me to scram, can you help me?" Ye Chen whined cutely.

"Naturally!" the beautiful cultivator replied.

"Fairy Sister, you are so kind!" Ye Chen exclaimed innocently.

"..."

The conversation between Ye Chen and the beautiful cultivator caused the expressions of the present cultivators to change, revealing an indescribable strangeness.

Baihua Palace is the sacred ground for female cultivators under the heavens, where seldom are male cultivators seen practicing within the palace, leading to a phenomenon of excess women over men.

However, Baihua Palace is not only marked by an imbalance of genders but is also a matriarchal sect.

The status of female cultivators in Baihua Palace is high, whereas the position of male cultivators is low, resulting in a situation where female disciples often bully the male disciples!

Even in the upper echelons of Baihua Palace, a ridiculous game has become popular—taking male cultivators as servants!

Thus, although Baihua Palace is teeming with beauties, few male cultivators are willing to enter because it's nothing short of torture for them!

The status of the beautiful cultivator was evidently extraordinary, and with Ye Chen having intentions of throwing himself at her, one could guess what would happen next.

"Qin, this guy is of unknown origin, with dubious intentions. You mustn't let him enter Baihua Palace!" Just then, that female disciple approached, speaking respectfully to the beautiful cultivator.

The beautiful woman's status was undoubtedly extraordinary as, during the conversation, the female disciples didn't dare to look directly at her.

"Oh?" the beautiful cultivator looked at the female disciple and said, "How is his origin unknown, and how are his intentions dubious? Tell me quickly."

"Qin, he…"

The female disciple was about to report honestly about Ye Chen's disgrace but was suddenly interrupted by the beautiful cultivator.

"How dare you!" the beautiful cultivator scolded sharply.

"Qin, I was just…" the female disciple, petrified, hastily tried to explain something.

"Do I need your guidance in what I do?" the beautiful cultivator spoke coldly. "Are you looking down on me?"

"Qin, your junior sister was wrong. Please do not be angry; it's all my fault," the female disciple, showing she was frightened, quickly apologized to the beautiful cultivator.

"Let him become a disciple of Baihua Palace, and place him in my Snow Moon Pavilion!" Finally, the beautiful cultivator left these words and departed coldly.

"..."

Ye Chen stood dumbfounded, not knowing about the matriarchy or the ridiculous game, only aware that this beautiful cultivator was so domineering!

However, the looks in the eyes of the people around him were so strange, seeming somewhat gloating. What was going on?

Just as Ye Chen was about to ask someone about it, the crowd dispersed, as if they disdained to communicate with him.

"Do they see my unstoppable charm, hence envy, jealousy, and hate?!"

Feeling the contempt from those around him, Ye Chen was puzzled, ultimately comforting himself with this thought.

"Ye Chen, come over here to register, and you will become a disciple of Baihua Palace!" The female cultivator who had told Ye Chen to "scram" was now calling him to register his information, undergoing an astonishing change in attitude.

"Sister, who exactly is Qin? Why do you seem so afraid of her?" Ye Chen asked the female disciple, puzzled.

The merely spoken word of the beautiful cultivator was enough for Ye Chen to enter Baihua Palace and had the female disciple trembling in fear, indicating her status and position were unquestionably remarkable, and she was likely a significant figure in Baihua Palace.

However, the beautiful cultivator was quite haughty, leaving without glancing back at Ye Chen, which displeased Ye Chen, who prided himself as a handsome charmer.

How could there be women in the universe who could resist his charm!

"You'll find out about all this later since you are now her person," the female disciple was unwilling to reveal more, simply telling Ye Chen that he would find out later.

"Her person?"

The female disciple's attitude was very strange, giving Ye Chen a mysterious sense of foreboding.

"Okay, you are now an outer sect disciple of Baihua Palace!" After registering Ye Chen's information, he became a member of Baihua Palace.

"It's this simple to enter the palace? Isn't there supposed to be a test?" Ye Chen exclaimed in surprise.

Baihua Palace is one of the top ten sects, and the rules within the palace are very strict. Even just to recruit outer sect disciples, one must pass several assessments to become a disciple of Baihua Palace.

However, Ye Chen had simply stated his name and provided some fake information to become a disciple of Baihua Palace. That was way too easy and pleasant!

"You are Qin's person, what need is there for an assessment?" the female disciple said. "Moreover, if you perform well in the future, you can directly become an inner sect disciple because you are Qin's person!"

"..."

Ye Chen knew that having connections made things easier. That beautiful cultivator was certainly no ordinary figure, holding immense authority in the Hundred Flowers Sect.

"Ye Chen, come with me, I'll take you to Snow Moon Pavilion!" Eventually, the female disciple, having taken care of everything, led Ye Chen into Baihua Palace.

Baihua Palace was enormous, filled with grand halls and some exquisite Wood Towers, featuring mountains, water, and forests, truly a paradise on earth.

Ye Chen followed behind the female disciple, not curiously looking around but lost in deep thought.

"This is so strange!"

Ye Chen did not know the peculiarities of Baihua Palace, but he had a vague sense of awareness.

The group's behavior was bizarre, and their disdainful looks gave Ye Chen bad premonitions.

"Sister, who is Qin? Is her status very prestigious?" Ye Chen asked again.

"There are some things I shouldn't mention, but you will know in the future!" the female disciple said indifferently.

Qin naturally held a prestigious status, otherwise she wouldn't be so uneasy, but why would she tell Ye Chen?

Ye Chen was strikingly handsome, elegant and extraordinary, and carried himself with grace, but he was Qin's man, what did that have to do with her?

"..."

The female disciple's indifferent attitude calmed Ye Chen down.

It didn't matter who Qin was, because she hadn't Transcended the Other Shore, and as long as she wasn't the Other Shore Grand Master, Ye Chen wasn't afraid of her.

He was strong, so he feared nothing; that was Ye Chen's confidence!

Eventually, the female disciple brought Ye Chen to Snow Moon Pavilion, arranged some matters for him, and then left.

Snow Moon Pavilion was a small wooden tower with a fine interior layout and exquisite decorations everywhere. However, Ye Chen felt something strange, as Snow Moon Pavilion seemed like a woman's residence.

But Snow Moon Pavilion was very vacant, without anyone there but Ye Chen.

Ye Chen settled into Snow Moon Pavilion, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

No one disturbed Ye Chen for three days, but every day, disciples brought him food, and the food was rich and exquisite, as if it were a banquet for royalty.

Day by day, he practiced cultivation, ate, slept soundly, and stood upstairs watching beautiful women; Ye Chen felt very happy, for life was too comfortable.

However, Ye Chen soon became alert because the atmosphere was very strange!

Ye Chen had some understanding of Baihua Palace and knew what the treatment for disciples was, especially since he was an Outer Sect Disciple!

Outer Sect Disciples were almost like menial workers; such people were meant to serve the sect because the sect didn't support idlers!

The sect gave you power, backing, and status; in return, you had to contribute to the sect! The sect wasn't a charity; only by giving something could you receive something in return.

But since arriving at Baihua Palace, Ye Chen had been treated like a lord; not only did he not need to contribute anything, but he was also being served by others.

"Damn, what does this mean, am I being raised like a pig?"

The more Ye Chen thought about it, the more ominous it felt because it seemed like he was being raised in captivity, cared for daily, just waiting to be fattened up and slaughtered.

"Could it be that my identity has been exposed?" Ye Chen thought of a possibility, but immediately denied it.

If his celestial emperor identity had been exposed, Baihua Palace would probably have killed him by now; why would they revere him like a lord?

"Qin!"

After ruling out many possibilities, Ye Chen vaguely realized that all of this probably had something to do with Qin!

But he and Qin had only met once and had no further interaction since that face-to-face encounter; what exactly was going on here?

Ye Chen thought and thought until his head hurt.

"Little Qilin, what have you been doing all day running out?" Ye Chen kicked the scruffy dog at his feet.

Little Qilin had entered Baihua Palace with Ye Chen but ran out crazily every day, only returning very late, clearly up to no good.

"Roar!"

Little Qilin growled a few times, sending a wave of spiritual fluctuation that informed Ye Chen of something.

"You little rascal, your guts are too big, aren't you afraid of being caught and killed?" Ye Chen, having read the spiritual wave, looked curiously as the rascal had indeed been up to no good.

It turned out, these days Little Qilin had been venturing out from early morning till late evening to the medicinal fields of Baihua Palace. The rascal had been ravaging many Spiritual Medicines, but because of its stealthy methods, it hadn't been discovered by anyone.

Little Qilin was in its growth phase and needed to consume a large amount of Spirit Grass and Spiritual Medicine.... Ye Chen didn't know how to keep pets; Little Qilin could only fend for itself for food.

"I hope you can quickly advance to Transcendence, the Other Shore. Only then will I also have some confidence!" Ye Chen couldn't quickly jump to the Other Shore and only hoped for Little Qilin to reach it soon.

"Ye Chen!"

While Ye Chen and Little Qilin were having their mental chat, a gentle voice suddenly resonated, and someone arrived at Snow Moon Pavilion.

"Qin?"

Ye Chen felt the person's aura and found it very familiar; it was none other than the beautiful cultivator—Qin!

This Qin held an extraordinary status; Ye Chen's encounters were all thanks to her, but as this woman had rarely appeared before, why did she suddenly come today, and what was her intention?

Sure enough, Ye Chen came down from Snow Moon Pavilion and saw the beautiful cultivator.

"How are you finding it living here?" Qin didn't wait to be served by Ye Chen, but naturally took the seat of honor and asked Ye Chen.

"Thanks to Sister Qin's care, I have gotten quite accustomed to it!" Ye Chen smiled.

"Hmm, I'm a bit tired, go draw me some water to wash my feet."

Qin sat on a stone platform, now reclining there, and casually blinked her bright eyes at Ye Chen.
