Return to Heaven Dou City, Visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

Half a day later.

Ye Chen returned to Heaven Dou City with Snow Empress and Feng Poyun.

The Body Sect's experts, led by Du Busi, returned to the Body Sect's headquarters.

With Snow Empress and Feng Poyun by his side, Ye Chen had all the help he needed. Everyone else had returned to the sect to improve their strength.

All the Immortal Herbs obtained from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well could be used to strengthen the sect.

Once Ye Chen became a Titled Douluo, he could mass-produce Immortal Herbs in batches.

When that time came, he only needed to shroud the Mandarin Duck Pot with the Time Talent Domain and activate time acceleration.

There was another reason as well: Du Busi planned to arrange for the Body Sect's experts to enter Slaughter City in batches for training.

As long as they staggered their entry into the Slaughter Arena, they could successfully open Hell Road and obtain Divine Slaughter's Domain.

"Snow Empress, this is the Body Sect's residence in Heaven Dou City."

Ye Chen pushed open the door.

A Soul Saint from the Body Sect had remained here, so there was no need to worry about anyone trespassing.

After all, a Soul Saint was considered an expert in this era. Shrek Academy's high-end combat strength was only at this level.

"Little Chen, you're back."

Ye Lingling came running out and threw herself forward, wrapping her arms around Ye Chen's waist.

She had been cultivating diligently these past few days, and her Soul Power had steadily improved. She would likely become a Soul King within a year and a half.

"Sister Lingling, let me introduce you."

"This is Snow Empress, an expert at the Ultimate Douluo level. She'll be living here from now on as well."

Ye Chen patted Ye Lingling's back.

"Lingling greets Senior Snow Empress!"

Ye Lingling immediately stood properly and respectfully bowed to Snow Empress.

She had noticed Snow Empress earlier. Her beauty, like a proud plum blossom in the snow, was impossible to overlook.

She simply had not expected the other woman to be an Ultimate Douluo. She must have been quite old.

"Mm."

Snow Empress gave a quiet response.

That was simply her nature. Even when facing Ye Chen, she maintained the same icy demeanor.

"Young Master, His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

The Body Sect's Soul Saint came to report.

Ye Chen and the others had only just arrived, yet Qian Renxue had come right after them. As expected of the Spirit Hall's young mistress.

That girl had probably stationed a Titled Douluo nearby to watch for his return.

"Let him in."

"Sister Lingling, take Snow Empress to her room yourself."

After giving his instructions, Ye Chen headed toward the main hall.

Within the Body Sect residence, he occupied the finest room. Ye Lingling's room was beside his, though she rarely stayed there.

By telling Ye Lingling to make the arrangements, Ye Chen was clearly having Snow Empress placed beside his own room rather than in the guest rooms.

"Senior Snow Empress, please follow me!"

Ye Lingling did not ask any questions.

Ye Chen needed to discuss matters with the crown prince, and she would not interfere. All she needed to do was quietly stay by Ye Chen's side.

Before long, Qian Renxue entered the Body Sect residence and arrived at the main hall.

"Brother Ye Chen, your Body Sect has caused quite a stir."

When Qian Renxue heard that Bibi Dong had been severely injured, she actually felt rather pleased.

The resentment she had accumulated over the years had finally found an outlet, leaving her considerably lighter.

"You're talking to me while disguised like this?"

Ye Chen glanced at Qian Renxue.

Perhaps because he had seen her true appearance before, seeing her dressed in this neither-male-nor-female guise now made him feel particularly disgusted.

"Is your Body Sect residence safe?"

Qian Renxue did not remove her disguise.

The information she had received was that Ye Chen had returned alone with Cloudpiercer Douluo.

The Body Sect had originally stationed three Titled Douluo here, yet two had been withdrawn. Were they not worried about Ye Chen's safety?

If Cloudpiercer Douluo was the only one here, the spiritual senses of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Titled Douluo might very well expose Qian Renxue's identity.

"Leaving aside the fact that not even an Ultimate Douluo can escape my perception."

"With Snow Empress, an Ultimate Douluo, here, who would dare force their way into my Body Sect residence?"

Ye Chen reached out, took Qian Renxue's hand, and gently tugged her toward himself.

Qian Renxue's body lost control as she fell onto his lap, pulled into Ye Chen's embrace.

"Ye Chen, are you being a hooligan?"

Qian Renxue reproachfully removed her disguise.

Last time, she had been overwhelmed by the truth and her legs had gone weak, causing her to lose her footing and fall onto Ye Chen's lap.

This time was completely different. Ye Chen had pulled her into his arms. This scoundrel was taking advantage of her.

"Your grandfather used your favor to have Teacher spare Bibi Dong. Shouldn't you pay some price for that?"

Ye Chen wrapped an arm around Qian Renxue's waist and drew her even closer.

Qian Renxue's entire body stiffened. Like a doll, she allowed Ye Chen to move her as he pleased.

"I came to discuss serious matters with you."

Qian Renxue gradually relaxed and allowed Ye Chen to hold her on his lap.

"I have serious business to discuss with you too. Your Spirit Hall should know the Clear Sky Sect's address, right?"

Ye Chen felt that they needed to destroy the Clear Sky Sect as soon as possible.

The current Clear Sky Sect might not yet have six Titled Douluo, which would make them easier to kill.

Only after dealing with the Clear Sky Sect could Du Busi safely disperse the Body Sect's forces.

"Your Body Sect is going to attack the Clear Sky Sect?"

Qian Renxue was greatly shocked.

The Body Sect was far too domineering. They had not only attacked Spirit Hall, but now they were even making a move against the Clear Sky Sect.

"That's right. Tang Hao died by my hand, and during this trip, I killed three Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. One of them was Tang Hao's son's lover."

"He hates me to death now. I plan to capture his aunt, then wipe out the Clear Sky Sect."

Ye Chen had no intention of hiding it.

Before absolute strength, all schemes and tricks were nothing but a joke. Even if the Clear Sky Sect learned of it, they could change nothing.

Moreover, Qian Renxue's father had indirectly died at Tang Hao's hands. She too had long harbored resentment toward the Clear Sky Sect.

"I don't know the Clear Sky Sect's exact location, but I can help you obtain a detailed address."

She only needed to write a letter to her grandfather.

The Clear Sky Sect's address would then be placed on her desk. That was the weight carried by being Spirit Hall's young mistress.

"After the Advanced Soul Master Tournament, end Xue Ye directly and hurry back for your Divine Trial."

"You had Innate Soul Power at level twenty, yet you're only at level seventy-three now, three levels below even me."

Ye Chen looked exceptionally disdainful.

On the Douluo Continent ten thousand years later, exceptionally talented people were as numerous as fish crossing a river.

Take Dragon God Douluo Mu En, for example. He had already reached level sixty-nine Soul Power at eighteen. By twenty-one, he would definitely have had higher Soul Power than Qian Renxue.

"You're level seventy-six?"

Qian Renxue could hardly believe it.

When this guy left, wasn't he only at level fifty-nine Soul Power? How had he shot up to level seventy-six?

Other than directly consuming Immortal Herbs at six years old to raise his Soul Power beyond level twenty, Ye Chen's progress had otherwise been fairly reasonable.

"If I didn't work hard to improve my strength, would I play some bullshit political game like you?"

"Tomorrow, I'll visit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and ask Ning Fengzhi about the Clear Sky Sect's whereabouts."

Ye Chen intended to force the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to take a stance.

Ning Fengzhi had no other choice. Either he tied the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to the Body Sect, or the only path left was destruction.

Even if the Body Sect did not act, Spirit Hall would attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. They would still be unable to escape the fate of their sect's destruction.
