Lady Providence
Cultivation knows no time.
Within a naturally formed cave, Ye Zichen was covered in a thick layer of dust as he sat motionlessly on the ground like a meditating monk.
For two whole months, he had been completely immersed in his own circulation, completely ignoring the outside world.
"Ugh."
At that moment, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He opened his tightly shut eyes and pressed his right hand against his chest. He panted heavily as blood flowed from his mouth.
"I failed."
The Wish God's words were true. Ye Zichen's luck was just too strong. Even he could sense it clearly.
He had practically no bottlenecks in his breakthroughs. It had only taken him two years to go from a mortal to an Immortal King.
Anyone who had this kind of luck would be overjoyed, but now, this luck had become the strongest obstacle in his way.
Or rather, the people of the God Realm were suppressing him and preventing him from ascending!
"You're awake?"
Just as Ye Zichen was lost in his thoughts, a woman's voice sounded out in the cave.
Someone's here!
Ye Zichen's heart tensed up. He instinctively adjusted the surrounding spiritual energy and looked forward with a frown.
"Who are you?"
He had clearly set up several seals at the entrance of the cave before he entered.
However, a woman was sitting about three meters away from him. She rested her chin on her hands as she sat on a rock. There was a hint of a smile in her eyes.
Ye Zichen subconsciously looked towards the seals …
They're still there!
"You sure are bold. You actually came to such a desolate place to cultivate. From the looks of it, you should be someone from the Immortal Region. Why did you choose to cultivate in such a remote place? "
The white-shirted woman's voice was very pleasant. Even strangers would have a good impression of her when they heard her.
"That has nothing to do with you."
Ye Zichen was extremely vigilant. The woman in front of him was far too strange.
It wasn't that he was arrogant, but no one in the Three Realms would be able to enter the seals he personally set up. However, this woman …
"Why are you here?"
"This is my manor. You're the one who took over my cave. You actually dare to ask me why I'm here?"
The white-robed woman pursed her lips into a smile. When Ye Zichen heard that, his expression froze, and he hurriedly stood up.
"Then I'm really sorry. I didn't know that this cave had an owner. I just felt that the spiritual energy here was very friendly, so I chose to cultivate here. If it makes you unhappy, then I can compensate you for your losses and leave this place right now. "
"Compensation?" The white-shirted woman raised her eyebrows and smiled, then her gaze landed on Ye Zichen's arm. "I see that your divine artifact is pretty good. How about giving it to me as a toy to play with?"
As soon as he said this, Ye Zichen's heart jolted.
She had actually discovered the Xuanyuan Sword in his body!
Ever since the Xuan-Yuan Sword's recovery had alarmed the higher-ups, the Xuan-Yuan Sword had become the target of public criticism. The woman in front of him had actually mentioned the Xuanyuan Sword. Could it be that she had also come for the Xuanyuan Sword?
On top of that, the other party was able to enter the cave without breaking his restrictions. Could it be …
Was she also someone from above?
When she sensed Ye Zichen's nervousness, she shook her head and laughed.
"Alright, junior, there's no need to be so nervous. If I really wanted to lay my hands on your treasure, then your soul would have returned to the Underworld by now, and the treasure would have fallen into my hands. Then, I wouldn't have to protect you for two months and wait for you to wake up. "
"Protect?"
Ye Zichen's expression changed. Only then did he notice the corpses of several demonic beasts outside the cave.
"Little fellow, your spiritual energy is rather special. The demonic beasts outside all came for you. Coincidentally, I returned from my travels, so I helped you deal with the demonic beasts while I was at it. I also stayed behind to protect you. At the same time, I wanted to ask you a question when you wake up. "
"Thank you for your help, senior. May I ask what exactly you want to ask?"
Ye Zichen cupped his hands towards the white-shirted woman, then spoke.
"Right now, there are very few things in the Six Realms that can interest me. Just now, when I checked your luck, I noticed that it was so red that it was almost purple. Even those shamans don't have this sort of luck. At that time, I thought that you were the reincarnation of some mighty figure, but I couldn't figure anything out. I just want to ask … your name. "
The Six Realms!
The shamans!
From her words, it was clear that this woman belonged to the higher ups. What's more, from her casual tone, it was clear that she had a very high status.
But someone of that status, after protecting him for two months, only wanted to know his name?
"Ye Zichen!"
Ye Zichen didn't dare to hide his intentions when faced with an existence like that. After he said his name politely, he saw that the woman kept nodding her head.
"Alright, then I'll remember it. The fact that you're in the wilderness means that we're fated to meet, and I'm willing to form good karma with you. Since you said your name just now, it means that you've answered my questions. Then I'm willing to help you answer them. "
Answer his questions.
Ye Zichen almost instinctively wanted to ask how he'd broken through, but he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue. Instead, he said, "I'm not sure.
Then, he said, "This junior would like to ask for senior's name."
The white-shirted woman clearly didn't expect Ye Zichen to ask such a question, but given her status, she naturally didn't reveal too much surprise.
"You can call me Lady Providence."
"Lady Providence," Ye Zichen bowed respectfully.
"Now, I have another question to ask. Just now, when I watched you break through, it was to no avail. With your Karmic Luck, it is indeed very difficult for you to ascend, but if you ask me, I have a way to help you break through. Why didn't you ask? Do you think that I can't answer your questions and that I'm wasting my time asking them? "
"Of course this junior doesn't dare doubt you, Senior," replied Ye Zichen sincerely. Ye Zichen replied sincerely. "But if I ask, Your Highness, I'm sure you'll have to pay something in return. This junior's name won't affect me in the slightest, but Lady Providence would have to pay a price in order to answer my questions. That's not fair to you. "
The white-shirted woman raised her eyebrows, then smiled and nodded at Ye Zichen.
"Junior, you're quite interesting."
"Senior praises me too much." "This junior only wanted to stay here to cultivate for half a month, but I didn't expect to waste so much time. My family might be extremely worried already, so this junior won't disturb you any longer. "
"Go, but I do suggest that you don't return to where you came from, and directly go to the Endless Beast Region … It might be better for you."
"Thank you for your guidance, senior."
The white-shirted woman smiled as she watched Ye Zichen leave the cave.
