The Great Emperor's Gift!

"My master is the Immortal Great Emperor!"

Ye Xi utilized a secret sound-transmission technique to speak separately to Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Qingge.

As the words fell.

The expressions of the two women shifted slightly, and within their hearts, heaven-shaking waves were stirred up.

Yet, their faces remained composed.

The gazes of Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Qingge both landed on Ye Xi.

Those sharp eyes seemed as if they wanted to see right through him, scanning him up and down.

Everyone present at this moment was a powerful figure in their own right.

Seeing Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Qingge, who had been on the verge of war just a moment ago, suddenly fall silent, they could not help but feel a sense of doubt.

Their gazes also landed on Ye Xi, seeing only a young man in white robes, handsome of face and possessing an extraordinary bearing.

Beyond that, there was a sense of mystery about him that even they could not fathom.

"What a refined and handsome youth!"

"I wonder which family cultivated such a prodigy!"

The Great Elder of the Jade Pool Holy Land whispered a few words to those beside him, and they all nodded in appreciation.

There were few who could catch the eye of these old monsters.

The Ye Xi before them was one such person; not only that, but he gave off a feeling of being humble and polite, yet without losing his edge.

Amidst everyone's burning gazes...

Ye Xi's eyes suddenly narrowed, his robes billowed, and he erupted with an immensely powerful aura!

An astonishing surge of magical power exploded, actually forcing the powerful figures present to retreat several steps.

Only a very small number of cultivators at the late Mahayana Realm were able to barely steady their figures and avoid being pushed back.

"So strong, this old man is no match!"

Great Elder Cang Yuan retreated a step, stomping his foot hard, causing the giant stone beneath him to crack and turn into powder.

The look he gave Ye Xi now held a hint of awe.

Many Mahayana Realm cultivators exchanged glances, and they could all see the thick shock in each other's eyes.

Ye Xi's strength far exceeded their imagination!

At first, when Ye Xi appeared, although everyone could not detect his aura, most assumed he possessed some kind of magical treasure.

One that could conceal his aura and block their senses.

But the moment Ye Xi actively unleashed his aura, that incomparably tyrannical, unstoppable feeling was absolutely unmistakable.

On the scene.

Only Yuan Ruoyu, Ye Qingge, Elder Heavenly Secret, and a few others could remain as steady as a mountain under this astonishing pressure.

At this moment, Ye Xi smiled slightly, withdrew his aura, and asked, "I want the final spot to fight!"

"Who agrees, and who opposes?!"

After Ye Xi finished speaking, his eyes swept calmly across the circle.

When his gaze, calm yet laced with arrogance, landed on the crowd, it felt as if an invisible pressure was rolling over them.

Ye Qingge was the first to speak: "I approve!"

Immediately following, Yuan Ruoyu also nodded and said, "I agree as well."

From the moment Ye Xi activated his cultivation technique, they had already confirmed his identity.

It could not be faked.

The two big shots had reached a consensus!

What else was there for the others to say? Besides, after witnessing the strength Ye Xi had displayed, they had no qualifications to object.

Following this, after some pleasantries, they exchanged some basic information with one another.

"Then it is settled!"

Elder Heavenly Secret said, "Three days from now, Great Emperor Zhitong, Cang Yuan, and Ye Xi will represent our factions to face the three ancestors of the An Clan!"

Soon, the results of this deliberation spread to all the factions that had arrived.

It caused quite a stir once again.

Of the three who were to fight, only Great Elder Cang Yuan of the Jade Pool Holy Land was someone everyone was familiar with.

The other two were both quite mysterious.

Needless to say, Great Emperor Zhitong was unfathomable, having first appeared at the Xuanqing Sect in Qing Province.

Leaving behind a fine tale.

And now, another person named Ye Xi has suddenly emerged, and he is actually at the late stage of the Mahayana realm as well.

This has left many feeling uneasy...

It seems the Cultivation World is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers; there are truly quite a few powerful figures lurking beneath the surface, keeping a low profile!

"The Immortal Great Emperor was right after all; staying low until the end of the world is the safest path..."

On the peak.

The leaders of the various factions who had come all departed one after another.

Before leaving, Ye Qingge took a deep look at Ye Xi and transmitted her voice via secret technique: "Kid, I'll give you one hour. Come over and explain everything to me in full detail!"

"Otherwise, I'll castrate you and make you a little eunuch!"

Ye Xi immediately broke into a cold sweat, forcing an ugly smile as he watched her Imperial Chariot drift away.

Only then did he let out a heavy sigh of relief...

As Ye Xi turned around, he discovered that Yuan Ruoyu was also staring in the direction Ye Qingge had left, looking thoughtful.

In truth, both of them were exceptionally intelligent women.

At this moment, they both vaguely guessed something in their hearts, knowing that the other's relationship with Lin Feng was certainly not ordinary.

At this time, Yuan Ruoyu looked at the Great Elder Cang Yuan beside her and said:

"Great Elder, you should head back first. I have some things to discuss with this Young Master Ye Xi!"

Cang Yuan looked left and right, hesitating slightly.

He was somewhat worried about Yuan Ruoyu's safety, as the strength Ye Xi had displayed was too formidable.

Moreover, she did not understand why the Holy Venerable's attitude toward this Ye Xi seemed so different.

"Go!"

Yuan Ruoyu urged him again.

Only then did the Great Elder bow and leave, clouds rising beneath his feet as he vanished into the horizon in an instant.

At this moment, on the peak.

Only Yuan Ruoyu and Ye Xi remained.

Yuan Ruoyu stared at Ye Xi with burning eyes and asked with a hint of hope: "Are you truly his disciple? Why have I never heard him mention you?"

"And—"

"Where is your master now, and is he safe?"

Ye Xi bowed respectfully to her and said:

"Disciple Nicholas Ye Xi, greets you, Mistress!"

Then, Ye Xi shook his head and said: "As for where Master is now, I do not know either!"

"As for why he never mentioned me, it must be that the time was not yet ripe. Now, the time has finally come!"

Yuan Ruoyu's expression softened slightly, but hearing that Ye Xi also did not know Lin Feng's whereabouts, she felt a bit disappointed.

For a moment, she didn't even pay attention to his peculiar name.

Ye Xi immediately comforted her: "Mistress, there is no need to worry!"

"Master is extremely cautious; he would never easily put himself in danger. We just need to wait and see!"

"When the time is ripe, he will naturally appear."

Yuan Ruoyu nodded, feeling much better after being called "Mistress" repeatedly.

Thinking of the events that had occurred recently.

Yuan Ruoyu couldn't help but ask: "Then do you know what exactly your master is trying to do?"

After a moment of silence.

Ye Xi's expression suddenly turned serious, a flash of madness appearing in his eyes, and the aura of his entire person underwent a transformation!

A domineering air that looked down upon the world swept outward.

Ye Xi looked toward the distant mountains and said with immense fervor: "Master once said that he wants to cleanse the heavens and earth and reshape the universe!"

Cleanse the heavens and earth, reshape the universe!

What a magnificent feat this was?

Even a woman like Yuan Ruoyu could not help but have her heart shaken, stunned by these words.

"Hoo..."

She took a deep breath, suppressing the agitation in her heart.

At this moment, Ye Xi's voice, filled with infinite regret, rang out once more: "It's a pity that Master didn't tell me many things. Now, the only clue left is that diary."

"All I can do is carry out the will revealed within those pages!"

Yuan Ruoyu nodded as well.

There was nothing else to be done for now. The commotion triggered by the diary this time was so immense; what exactly could be hidden within Cangwu Mountain?

Just then!

Ye Xi suddenly thought of a very serious problem, and his expression shifted.

The time limit was almost up.

He certainly didn't want to end up as a little eunuch, and he couldn't help but squeeze his legs together.

Ye Xi hurriedly took out an object—an exquisite box—and handed it to Yuan Ruoyu with both hands.

He said, "Mistress, this is a gift Master asked me to pass on to you before he left."

"Master put quite a lot of thought into this gift."

Ye Xi added, "He said you would definitely like it."

Yuan Ruoyu's eyes lit up, and the smile on her face could no longer be concealed; she took the box, filled with pleasant surprise.

She was breathtakingly beautiful.

She said with great joy, "At least he still has a bit of a conscience!"

The two bid each other farewell.

Once Yuan Ruoyu returned to the camp of the Jade Pool Holy Land, she couldn't wait to take out the box and examine it.

"That guy, what kind of thing would he leave for me?"

She couldn't remember the last time she had experienced such a feeling, filled with surprise, anticipation, and a hint of nervousness.

At this moment, looking at the delicate box in her hands, Yuan Ruoyu actually felt a reluctance to open it.

Sometimes, the unknown is also a form of beauty.

However, after a brief internal struggle, Yuan Ruoyu couldn't help but open the box.

Click—

With a crisp sound, the object resting quietly inside the box appeared before Yuan Ruoyu's eyes.

It was a collection of items woven from silk thread, shaped like fishing nets.

They came in various colors, and the mesh of the nets varied in size; some were as large as two fingers, while others were as fine and dense as needle eyes.
