"My god, why are so many Supreme Masters here? Aren't they supposed to be in the Forbidden Zone of Life? How come they all returned to Baihua Palace?"

Seven Supreme Masters gathered here, causing countless disciples to be shocked, exclaiming that it was inconceivable.

The boundless Canglan Realm, beyond its ten provinces, contained the Forbidden Zone of Life, a place filled with rare treasures and abundant creation, the battlefield for the strongest!

Saints and Supreme Masters above the ten provinces mostly coveted the Forbidden Zone of Life, competing and collecting the heavenly treasures contained within.

With twelve Supreme Masters in Baihua Palace, most of them in the Forbidden Zone of Life, the appearance of seven Supreme Masters together truly astonished these disciples.

Lingyun, Qi Li, Tian Yu, Chu Qing, Qian Qiu, Bai Ning, Qin Yue, all seven were Supreme Masters of Other Shore, ranked among the twelve golden hairpins.

"..."

All seven Supreme Masters were peerless beauties; they surrounded Ye Chen in the center, none of them seizing the initiative to speak, merely gazing quietly at him.

Ye Chen, surrounded by seven great beauties, immediately felt enormous pressure.

Ye Chen's foundation was not clean; not only had he teased Leng Aofu, he nearly killed Holy Maiden Feng Wu, and even mocked the female Saints of Baihua Palace.

The seven great beauties before him were all of Supreme Master rank, their cultivations profound and vast, able to discern all kinds of cause and effect in the world.

If Ye Chen were the least bit careless and revealed any minor flaw, allowing them to catch a glimpse of his true identity, he would undoubtedly find it impossible to escape and face certain death!

"Ye Chen, I am Master Lingyun. Would you wish to take me as your master?" Master Lingyun was the first to speak up.

"I..." Just as Ye Chen was about to say something, another Supreme Master interrupted, "I am Supreme Master Tian Yu, and I also wish to take you as my disciple!" Supreme Master Tian Yu said.

"I am Master Qian Qiu, in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall. Would you wish to inherit my mantle?"

Master Qian Qiu, a striking and cold beauty, was extremely powerful, controlling the Law Enforcement Hall of Baihua Palace; any disciple who violated the precepts would face her judgement!

"Ye Chen, I am Qin Yue." Supreme Master Qin Yue looked at Ye Chen. "You have unlimited potential and the posture of a Saint. I am willing to protect your path, to become your protector!"

"I am Chu Qing..."

Ye Chen's aura was concealed by Ye Tianshi, and with the Way of Myriad Images he practiced, none of the seven Supreme Masters noticed anything unusual, continuously offering him the olive branch to take him as their disciple.

Baihua Palace was the sacred territory for female cultivators of the world, having produced numerous strong women, but no invincible male cultivator had ever emerged!

Ye Chen's appearance was of great significance; not only had he comprehended the strongest Dao fruit, but he might also become the new flag of Baihua Palace, the first male Supreme Master, a male Saint!

Facing such a prodigious youth, all seven Supreme Masters were moved, knowing that if Ye Chen became famous one day, being his master would bring honor to them.

"Supreme Masters, please don't rush. May I take some time to consider?"

Seven beautiful women had offered Ye Chen the olive branch, willing to be his guides and protectors, yet he had agreed to none.

Ye Chen was now a hot commodity, with seven great beauties all wanting to claim him.

If Ye Chen kept his purity and let no one succeed, the seven women would only grow more fervent and more eager to woo him. But if he agreed to one, the others would lose interest and say goodbye to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen came to Baihua Palace for love, and he could not let go of any of the beauties before him; thus, he had to keep them all longing!

"..."

All seven Supreme Masters wanted to take Ye Chen as a disciple, but Ye Chen, acting as if courting death, wanted to consider, leaving all the disciples present speechless.

Was there even a need to think about it?

Just get on with it!

Lingyun, Qi Li, Qian Qiu, Chu Qing, these seven Supreme Masters are all distinguished figures of Other Shore, with thighs so white, tender, and powerful. Countless people yearn to cling to them, but Ye Chen, acting haughty, will not embrace them – isn't he playing too big of a star?!

"Seven Supreme Masters, can I ask a question?" Ye Chen suddenly said.

"Speak!" Master Lingyun's replies were always brief – just one word.

"Can I take all seven of you as my masters?" Ye Chen asked innocently.

"..."

Ye Chen's question left the seven beautiful women dumbfounded; what did this young man just say?

Though less revered than Saints, Supreme Masters were equally supreme and invincible. With countless disciples in Baihua Palace, all aspired to become a disciple of a Supreme Master.

Their arrival together signified deep rivalry and unwillingness to give in, all to take Ye Chen as a disciple—a massive honor, one that young supreme beings should be content with.

Yet, Ye Chen appeared utterly unmoved, and even naively asked if he could take them all as his masters.

"..."

Ye Chen's question left not only the seven Supreme Masters silent but also rendered the tens of thousands of disciples dumbstruck; Ye Chen's act was outrageous!

What could be higher than a Supreme Master of Other Shore? Clinging to the thigh of one meant enjoying luxuries galore. Yet Ye Chen wanted to clutch at the thighs of seven. Did he aspire to become a professional hanger-on?

Lingyun, Qi Li, Qian Qiu, they were all ancient beings, having condensed Other Shore Palace and controlled treasures of the heavens. They didn't need to be humble even in the face of Saints!

Such supreme masters could mentor young supreme beings, yet Ye Chen actually wanted to cast a wide net and ensnare all seven masters in one fell swoop, which was truly admirable for his audacity.

"Will the seven masters agree?" Holy Maiden Feng Wu looked toward Ye Chen, her face filled with seriousness.

As the Holy Maiden of Baihua Palace and a disciple of a Saint, and a young supreme being herself, Feng Wu held a unique and supreme position within Baihua Palace.

Feng Wu enjoyed this transcendence, and she had always been diligently cultivating, aiming for an even higher status.

However, with Ye Chen's startling rise to fame, if he were to become a disciple of a group of masters, he could potentially surpass her in status.

What frightened her the most was that Ye Chen was a follower of Leng Aofu. If Ye Chen gained influence, Leng Aofu's prestige would also greatly increase. Could Feng Wu, the Holy Maiden, tolerate her former rival possibly trampling over her?

"Please don't agree to it!" Feng Wu thought to herself.

If Ye Chen was to cling to the coattails of a group of great figures, Feng Wu could possibly lose her status, something she found nearly intolerable.

"Ye Chen, aren't you being too greedy? We are all supreme masters, each of us capable of being your master, yet you want us all to take you on as a disciple?" Qi Li frowned and said.

The words of Qi Li resonated with the other masters. A disciple was the heir to one's own mantle, how could they share with others?

"I walk the strongest path and need to learn from a hundred ways; that's why I wish to take you all as my teachers!"

On the surface, Ye Chen spoke with a sense of great justice, but in reality, he simply wanted to cast a wide net and, under the guise of seeking mentorship, find a way to get close to the seven masters.

The seven female masters, each with their unique grace and beauty—if Ye Chen didn't romance them, he would feel like he was betraying his gender.

"You wish to learn from a hundred schools, and that idea is commendable, but you don't need so many masters!" Master Qian Qiu said. "All seven of us are supreme masters and have mastered the ways of the hundred schools. When the time comes, we will impart them all to you!"

Other Shore is a state of perfection; the grand masters possess unsurpassed Divine Skills, proficient in the ways of the hundred schools. Teaching a disciple would be child's play!

"But, I just want to take on more masters, it gives me a sense of security!" Ye Chen stubbornly said.

"Even before I entered Baihua Palace, two old men found me, telling me I had good potential and were willing to take me on as a disciple. I saw their white beards and eyebrows, worried they might not live much longer, so I didn't agree."

"Then these two old men said they were Saints, immortal and everlasting, capable of teaching me hand-by-hand to become a Saint... In the end, I still refused, because there were only two of them, and they lacked momentum when fighting."

"Whether you teach me cultivation or not doesn't matter. I just want to find more masters so that there is momentum when it comes time to fight!"

The world was silent. Ye Chen quietly narrated, wove a tale of his experiences, and revealed his thoughts.

"..."

Ye Chen's innocent self-narrative stunned the seven beauties; they hadn't expected him to be so pure and adorable.

Moreover, Ye Chen revealed a secret—he had been sought after by Saints to be their disciple but refused them for the sole reason of their numbers being too few, lacking momentum in a fight?!

Lingyun, Qi Li, Qian Qiu, Chu Qing, Tian Yu... The seven beautiful masters stared blankly at Ye Chen, who was indeed eligible for the title of the one who comprehended the strongest Dao Fruit, for being so unique that he even refused Saints.

They had no doubts about Ye Chen's words because his potential was evident, compelling even for Saints. He was a heavenly-gifted uncut jade, and with sincere carving, he would shine brilliantly, illuminating the ten continents!

All seven masters were shocked, and the disciples around were dumbfounded, petrified by Ye Chen's audacity!

"This child has grasped the strongest Dao Fruit, comparable to that heavenly emperor, with combat power far surpassing that of the young supreme beings," Master Lingyun looked at the other masters and said. "Such a prodigy is hard to come by in the world; even Saints would be moved by him, willing to take him as a disciple at any cost!"

"We seven may reign supreme in our domains, but we are far inferior to the Saints and unable to provide him with the strongest protection!"

"I think his idea is good, to become our common disciple, or rather not just our seven but the disciple of the Twelve Golden Hairpins!"

"The Twelve Golden Hairpins of Baihua Palace are well-known across the ten continents. Even when united, we do not fear the Saints. If we twelve were to teach one disciple, what kind of monster, what kind of miracle would we create?"

"I am looking forward to it!"

Master Lingyun seemed to approve of Ye Chen's proposition and wanted to mobilize the power of the Twelve Golden Hairpins to cultivate Ye Chen into an unparalleled monster, a being capable of dominating the ten continents!

"The Twelve Golden Hairpins of Baihua Palace, we are only seven here now, where are the other five?" Master Qian Qiu suddenly asked.

Each of the Twelve Golden Hairpins was an invincible master, ruling over a continent. They took turns presiding over Baihua Palace. At the moment, only seven of them were in the palace, and the other five were wandering in the outside world, their whereabouts difficult to trace.

"We just need to send the message, letting them know about this matter—that's enough. We can take him as a disciple on their behalf!" Qi Li interjected.

"So, from now on, Ye Chen is our joint disciple, the strongest heir of the Twelve Golden Hairpins!" Master Lingyun suddenly looked toward Ye Chen and declared.

"Boom!"

With a gesture from Master Lingyun, the heavens and earth thundered, and a pathway opened in the void, its destination unknown.

"Come, let's go to my palace hall and bring along our beloved disciple."

"He has a familiar aura about him, and we need to ask him some questions."

Master Lingyun took the lead and stepped into the spatial passageway, with the other masters following suit, and Ye Chen also left the area.
