"Could it be that you came from the higher realms?"
Hearing Ye Yun's words, Yun Shan was utterly shocked. Someone had voiced his own speculation.
"The higher realms?"
Ye Yun's heart stirred at those words. He realized Yun Shan had imagined the wrong thing.
However, he did not choose to explain himself.
Instead, he intended to go along with the misunderstanding, put on an overwhelming display, and intimidate everyone.
With that in mind, Ye Yun asked Yun Shan, "What do you think of the strength of Dou Emperor experts on the Dou Qi Continent?"
"Dou Emperor experts!"
Hearing the words "Dou Emperor expert" from Ye Yun, the hearts of the four people present skipped a beat.
Could this young Boss Ye be a Dou Emperor expert?
Yun Shan gave Ye Yun a deep look before saying, "It is said that upon reaching the Dou Emperor realm, one can shatter the void and depart. Unfortunately, the Dou Emperor realm exists only in ancient records. It seems that no one in the present age has entered that realm."
"Shatter the void and depart? Then do you know where those Dou Emperor experts actually went?" Ye Yun asked with a smile.
"This..."
Yun Shan froze at those words, then widened his eyes as he stared at Ye Yun.
He knew that what this mysterious boss was about to say would likely open a new door for him.
A door capable of causing a sensation throughout the entire Dou Qi Continent!
"Then what do you think lies above our heads?" Ye Yun pointed toward the distant sky, thoroughly whetting Yun Yun's appetite.
Yun Shan was already impatient to learn everything and hurriedly said, "Boss Ye, just tell us directly. This old man truly wants to know."
Seeing the anticipation in the four people's eyes, Ye Yun stopped beating around the bush.
Then, drawing on the fantasy novels he had read in his previous life, he began making things up. "When Dou Emperors shatter the void, they go to a place called the Great Thousand World."
"To be precise, the Dou Qi Continent is also part of the Great Thousand World. Beneath the Great Thousand World are three thousand Lesser Worlds, and the Dou Qi Continent is merely one Lesser World beneath a Great Thousand World."
"The Great Thousand World?"
"The Dou Qi Continent is actually just a Lesser World."
After hearing Ye Yun's words, all four of them were shocked and bewildered.
It was the first time they had heard such claims from Ye Yun, so naturally, they were incredibly astonished.
Nalan Yanran's beautiful eyes sparkled as she asked sweetly, "Then Boss Ye must have come from the Great Thousand World above the Dou Qi Continent."
"No."
Ye Yun shook his head and continued his serious nonsense. "Actually, above the Great Thousand World lies a boundless universe. We all live within the same universe. There are countless Great Thousand Worlds within the universe, and I come from one of them."
The more Ye Yun spoke, the more animated he became. By the time he finished his string of tales, the jaws of Yun Shan and the others were practically on the floor.
"The universe..."
"There are countless Great Thousand Worlds within the universe..."
"Each Great Thousand World has three thousand Lesser Worlds beneath it."
"And the Dou Qi Continent is merely a Lesser World..."
After hearing Ye Yun's explanation, Yun Shan and the others were completely stunned.
For the first time, they realized that the vast, boundless Dou Qi Continent in their eyes was actually so insignificant.
"Boss Ye must have visited many Great Thousand Worlds, right?" Yun Yun asked curiously.
Since he knew so much, he must have seen other Great Thousand Worlds.
Ye Yun nodded. "Actually, I am a Heavens Merchant who travels through the universe. I never remain in one place for long. The treasures inside the Jars I sell come from other Great Thousand Worlds and Lesser Worlds."
"For example, the Divine Pill Yun Yun obtained came from a Lesser World where my hometown is located."
"The Light Spirit Boots also came from my hometown."
"Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin came from a Lesser World called [Wind and Cloud]."
"The Devouring Ancestral Talisman Nalan Yanran obtained came from a Lesser World called [Martial Universe]. Come to think of it, that Lesser World seems to be right next to your Dou Qi Continent. Perhaps someday, after you break through to the Dou Emperor realm, shatter the void, and enter the Great Thousand World, you might encounter a fellow named Lin Dong. That fellow possesses eight Ancestral Talismans."
"Eight Ancestral Talismans!"
Nalan Yanran's pretty face filled with shock.
Having fused with the Devouring Ancestral Talisman, she naturally understood just how powerful Ancestral Talismans were.
Yet that man called Lin Dong possessed eight Ancestral Talismans. How terrifying must his strength be?
As the other three listened to Ye Yun casually list world after world, they were all captivated and deeply shocked.
They had never expected Boss Ye to have visited so many worlds.
The treasures inside the Jars he sold must have been collected from those worlds.
If he could travel through so many worlds, just how terrifying was Boss Ye's strength?
For a moment, reverence arose in all four of their hearts.
"Cultivate well. Perhaps one day, you too will be able to shatter the void and enter the vast, boundless Great Thousand World."
"Alright, that is all I have to say. I need to eat my noodles."
Ye Yun stopped there, unwilling to say more, because his Instant Noodles were ready.
Pop!
Ye Yun pulled out the fork, and in an instant, a rich fragrance drifted through the air.
Slurp!
Ye Yun lifted a mouthful of noodles and ate with great relish, his heart filled with satisfaction.
That was right, this was the taste!
I missed it so much!
Gulp!
The enticing aroma instantly stirred the appetites of the four people present.
Although after breaking through to the Dou Wang realm, they could absorb the energy of heaven and earth to replenish themselves and no longer needed to eat every day.
But this fragrance was simply too enticing.
They had never eaten anything so fragrant and tempting.
The Dou Qi Continent valued martial strength above all else. No one bothered to study cuisine or anything like that.
Thus, in a sense, these people truly had never eaten anything particularly good.
Gulp!
Nalan Yanran stared at the Instant Noodles in Ye Yun's hand and could not help swallowing.
She was only a Dou Zhe and still needed to eat every day.
Moreover, she had not had time to eat breakfast that morning before Yun Yun brought her here.
She was already ravenous. Smelling the fragrance drifting through the air and watching Ye Yun eat with such enjoyment, Nalan Yanran was practically drooling.
Rip!
Ye Yun continued eating his Instant Noodles. When he looked up, he saw all four of them staring fixedly at the noodles in his hand. Nalan Yanran in particular was nearly drooling from the corner of her mouth, and he could not help being slightly stunned.
He could not help asking, "Are you hungry too?"
The four of them froze at those words. Looking at the fragrant Instant Noodles in Ye Yun's hand, they nodded as if possessed.
Seeing this, Ye Yun said, "Alright then. I'll make noodles for you."
