Chapter 12729 Serious Matters
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingcai's gaze shifted, and she said:
"Yes, Uncle Ye, don't worry, I will definitely help you."
"However, you must conceal your identity and not reveal that you are the Lord of Reincarnation."
"Otherwise, the Temple of Holy Light will kill you!"
Ye Chen nodded and said, "I know."
He added, "Xingcai, thank you. With your help, things will be much easier."
"Why are you being so polite with me?"
Ye Xingcai smiled slightly, "I'm very happy to be able to help Uncle Ye. Well, let's go back to the Holy Light Oath Hall now. You should get some rest. I'll send someone to investigate the whereabouts of the First Tyrant."
Ye Chen said, "Okay, then thank you for your hard work, Xingcai."
Although he was eager to track down the first tyrant as soon as possible, he also knew that haste makes waste.
"It's not hard."
Ye Xingcai smiled, then suddenly tiptoed and gently kissed Ye Chen on the cheek. She then turned around, and in a flash, she left the cabin of the Abyss Kun's skeleton.
"This girl..."
Ye Chen touched the spot where he had been kissed and smiled helplessly.
But then Ye Xingcai outside announced:
"Two enemies have arrived at the Holy Land: the Tomb God and the First Tyrant. Send more people to investigate immediately."
"At the same time, notify the Elders' Hall to immediately seal off the Holy Land and strictly prohibit anyone from entering or leaving!"
Ye Xingcai was as docile and obedient as a kitten in front of Ye Chen, but she also displayed the majesty of a goddess in front of the guards of the Holy Light Oath Hall.
The Holy Light Guardians were terrified to hear that the legendary First Tyrant had descended upon the Sun District. They immediately agreed to the order and began to investigate and explore in secret.
Before long, Ye Chen, led by Ye Xingcai, headed to the headquarters of the Holy Light Oath Hall.
His current identity is not that of the Lord of Reincarnation, but rather that of Ye Xingcai's friend.
On his way to the headquarters of the Holy Light Covenant Hall, Ye Chen saw walls of light descending from the sky, sealing off the entire Sun District, so that not even a fly could escape.
Ye Chen thought to himself, "This Holy Light Oath Hall is indeed not to be underestimated; its actions are so swift."
About an hour later, Ye Chen arrived at the Holy Temple.
Here, everything is magnificent and dazzling. Palaces stand on the earth and float in the sky, with rosy clouds and rising mist creating a spectacular sight.
Ye Xingcai linked arms with Ye Chen as they walked, with two Holy Light Guardians following closely behind, clearing the way and providing protection.
Along the way, many guards of the Holy Light Covenant Temple bowed respectfully to Ye Xingcai, addressing her as "Goddess".
When their gazes fell on Ye Chen, they were filled with a hint of doubt, but because Ye Xingcai was beside them, they dared not ask any further questions.
As Ye Chen walked, he secretly observed the surrounding environment while activating his Primordial Spirit Eye to probe the aura of the Sun District.
He could feel that the entire Sunshine District was enveloped in a dense holy light.
This holy light was pure and vast, yet it also carried a hint of dominance, subtly showing a tendency to suppress all dark forces.
Moreover, he could also sense some extremely powerful auras deep within the Sun Zone. Those auras were pure and majestic, clearly belonging to top experts of the Holy Light Covenant Hall.
"Uncle Ye, the main hall of the Holy Light Oath Hall is just ahead."
Ye Xingcai pointed to an incredibly magnificent palace in front of her and said softly, "You will reside inside this palace."
Ye Chen looked in the direction Ye Xingcai pointed and saw that the palace was dozens of feet high, made entirely of pure white divine light crystals, exuding a rich holy light aura, and was extremely majestic.
"Okay, thank you for your help, Xingcai," Ye Chen said.
……
That night, Ye Chen stayed in the palace.
He sat cross-legged on the bed, slowly regulating his breathing.
His previous series of battles had caused his aura to fluctuate violently.
Ye Chen took out another scroll and slowly unfurled it.
The scroll was printed with an image of a radiant tower, one of the treasures he had previously obtained from the Tomb of the Moon God.
“The First Tyrant already knows my identity. Once he reveals it, I will inevitably be exposed.”
"To be on the safe side, I should take the path of the Tower of Radiance. I can use the light to conceal myself, so even if we are face to face, the First Tyrant may not be able to recognize me."
Thinking of this, Ye Chen took a deep breath and, following the wonderful method on the scroll, visualized a radiant divine tower in his mind, attempting to step onto the path of this radiant tower.
Of the twelve ancient god paths, Ye Chen has already embarked on the path of the gate, has also dabbled in the path of the tyrant, and has the hidden path of the heavenly demon, as well as the self-created path of the Jade Emperor.
He has traveled many roads.
If it were an ordinary person, walking on such a complex road, their breathing would probably have become disordered and collapsed long ago.
However, Ye Chen, who wields all laws and paths, draws upon a wide range of knowledge, harmonizes and integrates them, and has a profound understanding of the principles of Yin and Yang, will not easily suffer backlash or rejection.
There was naturally no obstacle for him to embark on the path to the Tower of Glory again.
"I want to be light, but not the primordial light that annihilates everything."
"I will become a Heavenly Saint, the Emperor of Reincarnation, and illuminate all things."
Ye Chen murmured to himself, and with his eyes closed and his mind focused, a radiant tower imprint appeared in his sea of consciousness, and wisps of holy light emanated from his body.
This indicates that he has embarked on the path to the Tower of Glory.
However, the path to the Tower of Radiance is a path taken by those who came before, not a new one.
Therefore, Ye Chen's cultivation level remained at the ninth level of the Undying Realm, and he failed to break through to the Heavenly Dao Realm.
To advance to the Heavenly Dao Realm, he needs to forge a new path.
The night in the Sunny District is not dark; the entire world is still shrouded in a faint holy light, just like daytime, only the aura of the holy light is much gentler than during the day.
Ye Chen slowly regulated his breathing.
Suddenly, Ye Chen keenly sensed that a familiar aura was quietly approaching the palace.
That aura was gentle and pure; it belonged to Ye Xingcai.
Soon, the door to the bedchamber was gently pushed open.
A slender figure quietly entered.
"Uncle Ye..."
The figure was naturally Ye Xingcai. She had changed from the goddess dress to a light white dress, her long hair was draped over her shoulders, and she was without any decorations, making her look even more pure and charming.
Her face was flushed, and she looked a little tired.
Clearly, she had spent a lot of energy today investigating the whereabouts of the First Tyrant and the Golden Feather Emperor.
"What's wrong, Xingcai?"
Ye Chen smiled gently when he saw Ye Xingcai enter.
Ye Xingcai, with a sullen face, climbed onto Ye Chen's bed, hugged his waist, and said, "I want to sleep with you, just like before, okay? Hold me while you sleep."
Ye Chen was speechless, but seeing Ye Xingcai's flushed cheeks and expectant look, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Yes, that's fine."
Ye Chen reached out and pulled her into his arms. It would be impossible for him not to have any thoughts about her.
But now is not the time.
Ye Chen stopped cultivating, picked up Ye Xingcai, placed her on the bed, and lay down himself, using his arm as her pillow.
Ye Xingcai's cheeks flushed, and she seemed to want to do something, but Ye Chen gently placed a finger on her lips and whispered, "Don't overthink it, go to sleep."
……
The next morning, Ye Xingcai slowly opened her eyes and saw that she was still nestled in Ye Chen's arms, a sweet smile appearing on her face.
Ye Chen also woke up, gently flicked Ye Xingcai's nose, and said, "Time to get down to business. We must find the First Tyrant today!"
He had spent the night in the Sun District and was gradually getting used to the spiritual energy of the place. In a hazy state, he could vaguely sense the aura of the First Tyrant.
If even he could vaguely detect it, the guards of the Holy Light Covenant Temple must have found the result as well.
"I'll go out and ask."
Ye Xingcai also became serious, knowing that now was not the time to fool around.
The First Tyrant is extremely powerful. If he is not handled properly, the entire Sun District may face a huge disaster.
Ye Xingcai straightened her clothes and hair and left Ye Chen's palace.
Ye Chen sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and released his divine sense to explore the world of the Sun District, attempting to capture the whereabouts of the First Tyrant and the Golden Feather Emperor.
Suddenly, Ye Chen saw a flying boat coming from the outside towards the Sun District.
The flying boat was decorated in an extremely luxurious manner, and a fat, middle-aged man stood on its bow.
Ye Chen took a look and realized it was Luo Haifu, the steward of Feather Island!
Luo Haifu's cultivation level was mediocre, but as a manager of the Void Market, his status was extraordinary.
Beside him stood two tall, masked figures, devoid of any living presence, resembling puppets.
The two puppets wore black cloaks, obscuring their true appearance, but their auras were calm and powerful, subtly exuding a chilling sense of oppression.
"Luo Haifu, the steward of Feather Island, requests an audience with the Sun Goddess of the Sun Holy Land!"
As the airship approached the edge of the Sun District, Luo Haifu, with a strong voice, paid his respects, his expression solemn, as if it were a momentous event.
His voice was very loud and carried throughout the Sun District; even Ye Chen heard it.
Knowing that Luo Haifu was no ordinary person, Ye Xingcai immediately led people out to greet him.
Upon seeing Luo Haifu, she slightly curtsied and said:
"This humble woman, Ye Xingcai, greets Steward Luo."
"My mother is still training in the Yaoxing Ancient Realm. I wonder what brought Steward Luo here?"
Luo Haifu said, "Greetings, Goddess. Um, I am taking the liberty of visiting you, but I have come for one person."
Ye Xingcai asked, "Who?"
Luo Haifu said, "A prisoner named Chi Yuechen was originally imprisoned in the Tai Xuan City Prison, but he later escaped."
"After receiving the news and carefully investigating, I deduced that this person had ended up in your area."
"This person is involved in a major case... Eh, Goddess, have you seen him before?"
Luo Haifu scrutinized Ye Xingcai and suddenly noticed that she carried the aura of "Crimson Moon Dust," which greatly surprised him.
Ye Xingcai's cheeks flushed red instantly. The "Crimson Moon Dust" that Luo Haifu mentioned was naturally Ye Chen.
She had already heard Ye Chen talk about the "Yin Yang Remnant Contract".
Previously, Ye Chen had also been implicated and arrested by Void Market.
She never expected that even Luo Haifu would come to her door in person.
"This one……"
Ye Xingcai was at a loss for what to do, and naturally, she couldn't hand Ye Chen over.
"Crimson Moon Dust is here."
Just as she hesitated, a clear voice rang out, followed by a streak of light flying over. It was Ye Chen who, upon hearing the news, appeared and flew out on his own.
"Ye... um, Brother Chen, what's wrong with you..."
Ye Xingcai was immediately taken aback.
Ye Chen went straight to Ye Xingcai's side and looked at Luo Haifu in front of him.
Luo Haifu's cultivation level was not a threat, but the aura of the two masked puppets standing beside him was not to be underestimated.
Ye Chen vaguely sensed that the two masked puppets were emanating a faint scent of Buddhist incense and perfume.
It seems to be the aura of the Myriad Corpse Buddha!
He was shocked, realizing that the two masked puppets were the corpse puppets that the Myriad Causes Corpse Buddha had differentiated from.
Luo Haifu only made a simple cover-up, without any particularly thorough concealment, so it couldn't fool Ye Chen's eyes.
In fact, the aura of a terrifying being like the Myriad Corpse Buddha, whose clones could not be concealed at all.
Luo Haifu was clearly prepared, as he was carrying two Myriad-Kind Corpse Puppets with him.
Fortunately, judging from Luo Haifu's gaze, he did not recognize Ye Chen's true identity, and only thought that he was "Chi Yuechen".
Ye Chen's mind raced, and he said, "Steward Luo, I know why you've come."
"I know the truth about the theft of the 'Yin Yang Remnant Contract'."
"Oh?" Luo Haifu was surprised to hear Ye Chen's words.
He came here to arrest Ye Chen and interrogate him, but before he could interrogate him, Ye Chen was about to tell the truth himself.
"The truth is actually very simple..."
Without wasting any words, Ye Chen directly took out the box containing the Divine Moon Essence.
He chose to keep it a secret because he didn't want to offend the first tyrant.
But now that he has completely broken ties with the First Tyrant, there is no longer any need to hide it.
Ye Chen opened the box and took out the Divine Moon Marrow.
The Divine Moon Marrow is pure white, radiating a faint moon-white luster. Its texture is translucent, and one can vaguely see the pure energy contained within.
When Luo Haifu saw the Divine Moon Marrow, the look in his eyes became increasingly surprised.
Ye Chen infused his spiritual energy, activating the Divine Moon Marrow, and a figure dressed in a dark black dragon robe slowly emerged.
He was the first tyrant!
"Steward Luo, the Yin-Yang Remnant Contract that you've been longing for has already been taken away by the First Tyrant."
"This person possesses astonishing supernatural powers. He forcefully suppressed everything with the will of a tyrant, even suppressing and obliterating Manager Jin's memories."
"However, this Divine Moon Essence recorded the entire process, and the truth lies here."
Ye Chen said calmly.
Luo Haifu and Ye Xingcai were utterly shocked by the scene projected by the Divine Moon Marrow.
Ye Xingcai said, "The 'Yin-Yang Remnant Contract' is said to be a fragment of the 'Yin-Yang Divine Contract,' containing the secrets of the origin of Yin and Yang in the universe!"
“My mother also longed for it and was planning to attend your auction, but I heard that the ‘Yin Yang Remnant Contract’ was stolen. Was it taken by the First Tyrant?”
She paused, then turned back to the Holy Light Guardian and asked:
"Have you found the whereabouts of the first tyrant?"
A guard general respectfully reported, "Reporting to Your Highness, we have located it; it is located... on the outskirts of the Yaoxing Ancient Realm."
