Ye Chen felt strange when he saw the Clear Mist Sect's sect master. It was his first time meeting him. Even if he had defeated the First Elder, he should not be so polite to him. There must be some other reason.
"Father, this is Ye Chen," Qing Qing introduced.
"Hello, Fellow Ye!"
Li Qingmiao stepped forward to greet Ye Chen.
"Hello, Sect Master. I might have to stay at your Clear Mist Sect for a while. Is that alright?"
"Of course, leave it to my daughter to arrange!"
"Sure!"
Ye Chen was even more suspicious. This person was clearly letting the saint follow him on purpose. What was the reason behind this?
He could not figure it out for now. However, Ye Chen did not think too much about it. He was only staying at the Clear Mist Sect for a few days. If the other party wanted to harm him, he would play along.
"Ye Chen, this way!"
"Alright!"
Seeing that Qing Qing had been behaving well recently, Ye Chen did not dwell on the title of master. However, when he left, he clearly felt the First Elder's malice toward him. It was obvious that he still held a grudge over today's matter.
After Ye Chen left with Qing Qing, the First Elder walked up to Li Qingmiao.
"Sect Master, this person has ruined the rules and reputation of the Clear Mist Sect. You can't let him go!"
"Bastard!"
"Huh?"
Seeing Li Qingmiao's angry look, the First Elder shuddered.
"This person was asked to be taken care of by the higher-ups. Who do you think you are? How dare you cause trouble? Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough? "
"Sect Master, it can't be. This kid was requested by the higher-ups?"
"How could it be fake? The high sect has already given us a hint. When you see Ye Chen, everything must go according to his wishes. This person must be someone the higher-ups want. Is he someone we can afford to offend? "
"So that's how it is!"
"Of course. What's his cultivation base? He's only at the Mahayana Stage, yet he can make you, a half-step true immortal, helpless. Do I need to say more?"
"Yes, yes!"
Hearing this, the First Elder did not dare to say anything bad about Ye Chen. However, the resentment in his heart could not be dispelled. He was the First Elder of the Elder Council. How could he face others in the Clear Mist Sect after being played like this by a Mahayana Stage kid?
Ye Chen followed Qing Qing to a quiet place. It was the residence that Qing Qing had found for him.
"Young Lord Ye Chen, are you satisfied with this place?"
Naturally, Ye Chen was satisfied with the tranquil surroundings, the pavilions, and the flowing water.
"Ha, not bad."
"Thank you for your praise, Master!"
"You don't have to call me Master anymore. You can call me Ye Chen."
"Hehe, when there's no one around, I still like to call you Master."
"Ah?"
Ye Chen's eyes widened as he stared at the "shrewish" woman before him. She had taken the initiative to call him master. Was she that kind of person?
Ye Chen was shocked to see that Qing Qing seemed to be interested in him.
"Alright, suit yourself. Tell me about the situation of this continent! "
"Yes, Master!"
"Sigh, alright, whatever!"
Ye Chen sat on the stone platform. Qing Qing poured him tea and began explaining.
"Master, our Clear Miao Sect is just a small place. Our sect is called Flowing Cloud Sect, and the real master of this continent is Nether Prison!"
"Nether Prison?"
"That's right. There are many super powers in the Nether God Realm, and Nether Prison is one of them."
"Where is the Lord of the Underworld? What power does he belong to?"
Qing Qing was surprised to see Ye Chen's anxious look. She did not expect Ye Chen to ask about the Lord of the Underworld. That was the most taboo name in the continent. Many people would even feel like their minds were being controlled when they mentioned the Lord of the Underworld. Therefore, ordinary people would never take the initiative to mention him.
However, Ye Chen seemed to be unaffected by this curse at all.
"The Lord of the Underworld!"
Qing Qing frowned. She was also affected by the curse when she mentioned the Lord of the Underworld. She even felt her chest tighten.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Chen asked when he saw that Qing Qing's condition was not right.
The latter shook her head slightly and said, "The Lord of the Underworld is a taboo name. Anyone who mentions him will be like this. Why are you looking for the Lord of the Underworld?"
"This is related to the war in the Underworld. The situation is complicated and it's difficult for me to explain it to you. However, I want to find the Lord of the Underworld and get him to join forces with me to save the Underworld."
"Join forces with you?"
This time, Qing Qing was completely stunned. She did not expect Ye Chen to be so ambitious. He wanted to join forces with the Lord of the Underworld. What was going on?
For ordinary people, just mentioning the Lord of the Underworld's name was like entering an icy hell. Ye Chen actually wanted to join forces with the Lord of the Underworld. Did he really think that he was on the same level as the Lord of the Underworld? Thinking of this, Qing Qing could only shake her head. She felt that there was something wrong with this brat's brain.
"Ye Chen, I'm telling you the truth."
Sensing that Qing Qing's tone had changed, Ye Chen was interested because she might be telling him something serious.
"No one knows who the Lord of the Underworld is. Similarly, no one knows where he is. In fact, whether this person really exists is a mystery. Ye Chen, I think it's best that you don't get involved with the Lord of the Underworld. It's very dangerous!"
"Oh … I really didn't think of that."
Looking at the girl in front of him who looked very serious, Ye Chen did not expect that she seemed to really care about him.
"Fleeting Cloud Sect, Nether Purgatory … The Lord of the Underworld!"
Ye Chen carefully thought about the relationship between these forces. The name Fleeting Cloud Sect made a connection with the divine power that the First Elder used. At that time, he had used the Fleeting Cloud Sword Technique. Ye Chen could not help but wonder if the First Elder was related to the Fleeting Cloud Sect.
"Alright, you can go back first."
"Huh? Can't I stay and serve you, Master? "
"No need, I'm used to being alone!"
"Hmph, boring!"
Seeing that Ye Chen seemed to be very determined, Qing Qing glared at him and left.
Ye Chen meditated and adjusted his breath, recalling the battle earlier.
Li Qingmiao could easily block his killing blow against the First Elder. It was obvious that the other party was most likely the legendary True Immortal.
Ye Chen had never fought a True Immortal before. Although he could kill Itinerant Immortals at will, through the Heavenly Emperor's memory, he knew very well that there was a world of difference between True Immortals and Itinerant Immortals.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!
Ye Chen released the Immortal Drift Bottle, which corresponded to the night of the full moon.
As the Immortal Drift Bottle continuously released clear energy, Ye Chen took a deep breath.
"Phew …"
Following that, he exhaled a mouthful of turbid air. Immediately, he felt refreshed. The veins in his body were unimpeded as if he had ascended to immortality.
As the moonlight shone on the Immortal Drift Bottle, endless pure immortal energy was continuously infused into Ye Chen's body. Coupled with the pure underworld energy from the Origin of Darkness, cultivating the Godfiend Body was the fastest.
If he wanted to naturally deal with the upper realms like the Devil Martial World, the Primordial Immortal World, and the Underworld Realm, he still needed a lot of power!
