Supreme Lord of Towers

”Ah! My face.” In the high sky, at this moment, a wretched wail reverberated, sounding absolutely horrifying.

Xiahou Ting clutched her face, swollen like a pig’s head, her eyes full of terror and humiliation.

Even she did not expect that a prominent figure like Jin Kun, who stood high above, would strike at her, a junior.

What exactly did she do wrong?

”Jin Kun, are you joking? Your cultivation has already stepped into the Profound Pill Realm. No one but a fool would sign a Life and Death Contract with you.” Xiahou Dian spoke with an extremely gloomy expression.

”So you do know! Then why did this foolish Xiahou Ting insist that Ye Chen sign a Life and Death Contract with Wang Tian earlier? Tell me, shouldn’t a fool like her be hit?” Jin Kun laughed coldly.

”This...,” Xiahou Dian was momentarily lost for words.

”Xiahou Ting, next time when you speak, use your brain, or else I won’t be as simple as just slapping you, understand?” A frightening gleam suddenly shot out from Jin Kun’s eyes as he harshly reprimanded Xiahou Ting.

”Yes! Yes!” Xiahou Ting involuntarily gasped, her expression terrified to the extreme, as if being stared at by an Ancient Fierce Beast.

At this moment, she could sense a strong threat of death coming from Jin Kun.

If she dared defy Jin Kun, he truly might kill her.

Not even her ancestor Xiahou Dian could save her.

”Ye Chen, there’s something I would like your help with.” Not even sparing Xiahou Ting another glance, Jin Kun’s form flickered as he flew toward Ye Chen, giving him a slight smile.

”Please, Ninth Elder, tell me.” Ye Chen replied, his expression showing some curiosity.

”It’s like this, in ten days, our Azure Sky Immortal Sect will hold the Seven Peaks grand competition. The participants are the most outstanding among the Outer Disciples of the Seven Great Peaks. Our Overlord Body Peak had originally planned to have Lu Ping participate, but you killed him, so I’d like to ask you to replace him in the Seven Peaks grand competition.” Jin Kun seemed slightly uneasy as he spoke.

One must know that Ye Chen’s status was extremely noble, even the Profound Spirit treated him with great respect.

Having Ye Chen participate in the Seven Peaks grand competition might be seen as disrespectful to him.

Therefore, he was truly afraid that Ye Chen might blame him.

”The Seven Peaks grand competition? If I win, will there be a reward?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but ask.

Although he currently had over three hundred thousand Earth Spirit Stones, which could be converted to over three hundred million Ordinary Spirit Stones,

as his strength increased, the number of Spirit Stones needed to cultivate the Human Emperor Body would become even greater.

Even three hundred million Ordinary Spirit Stones would be just a drop in the ocean.

Thus, he truly wanted to earn more wealth for future needs.

For this reason, if participating in the Seven Peaks grand competition could grant him incredibly rich rewards, he would naturally not refuse.

After all, his opponents were merely Outer Disciples of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect; he was absolutely confident in securing the top spot.

”Yes, of course, if you can claim first place in the grand competition, you will be rewarded with ten thousand Celestial Spirit Stones, a Top Grade Magical Artifact, and among the Upper Grade profound Cultivation Techniques of our Overlord Body Peak, you can choose one to cultivate.” Jin Kun smiled slightly.

”Five thousand Celestial Spirit Stones, this reward is truly generous!” Ye Chen’s pupils suddenly shrank, somewhat unable to believe his ears.

One must understand that Celestial Spirit Stones are extremely rare even in Cang Province.

Even a Cultivator with the worst talent can have four times the Qi Sea Foundation with the help of Celestial Spirit Stones, let alone those with extraordinary talent.

Thus, Celestial Spirit Stones are basically priceless.

Even a hundred Earth Spirit Stones might not exchange for a single Celestial Spirit Stone.

But now, if Ye Chen could help Overlord Body Peak clinch the first place in this Seven Peaks grand competition, he would be rewarded with fifty thousand Celestial Spirit Stones.

This undoubtedly held great allure for him.

”Fifty thousand Celestial Spirit Stones, if auctioned, would be worth at least fifty billion Ordinary Spirit Stones. Such a large number of Ordinary Spirit Stones could be used to condense five thousand Dragon Elephant Divine Patterns.” Ye Chen couldn’t help but marvel in his heart.

”How about it? Ye Chen, is this reward acceptable?” Seeing that Ye Chen was somewhat tempted, Jin Kun couldn’t help but sigh in relief.

In fact, if it were someone else participating in this Seven Peaks grand competition, even securing the top spot would definitely not result in such a rich reward.

But Ye Chen was different.

His status was extremely noble, and a meager reward would indeed be an insult to him.

Moreover, even the Peak Master Venerable Zi Chen secretly instructed Jin Kun to provide Ye Chen with a sufficiently generous reward.

This was why Jin Kun dared to make such a decision.

”Alright, then I accept,” Ye Chen agreed without hesitation, his eyes filled with intense anticipation.

Fifty thousand Celestial Spirit Stones were a massive fortune for him.

Not accepting would be truly foolish.

And besides the fifty thousand Celestial Spirit Stones, winning the competition would also earn him a Top Grade Magical Artifact and an Upper Grade Profound Martial Art.

These were treasures that every disciple of the Azure Sky Immortal Sect dreamed of obtaining.

”Oh my! Am I dreaming? Why does Ye Chen receive such generous rewards?”

”It’s unfair, truly unfair.” The disciples from the Seven Great Peaks stood frozen, eyes wide with disbelief.

As far as they knew, the top spot in the Seven Peaks grand competition would typically earn one thousand Celestial Spirit Stones and a piece of an Upper Grade Magical Artifact.

This was already incredibly generous for participating Outer Disciples.

But now, Jin Kun directly offered Ye Chen five thousand Celestial Spirit Stones and a Top Grade Magical Artifact as rewards.

This completely upended everyone’s understanding.

They couldn’t comprehend why Ye Chen, who couldn’t even awaken his bloodline, could receive such generous treatment.

”Jin Kun, are you mad? Who gave you the authority to offer such rewards to this waste? Did you consult with us, the Elders of Overlord Body Peak?” A cold voice suddenly rang in everyone’s ears.

The one who spoke was Tuoba Xiong.

His face turned extremely gloomy as he looked at Jin Kun like he was a madman.

Previously, when his disciple Lu Ping decided to participate in the Seven Peaks grand competition, the Overlord Body Peak leadership offered only ten thousand Celestial Spirit Stones and a piece of an Upper Grade Magical Artifact as rewards.

And those rewards would be given only if Lu Ping secured the top spot.

But now, Jin Kun was offering Ye Chen rewards several times richer than those offered to Lu Ping.

How could Tuoba Xiong tolerate this?

”Third Elder, this is the will of our Peak Master. If you’re dissatisfied, you can take it up with our Peak Master.” Jin Kun smiled coldly, his lips curling into a sneering grin.

The true controller of Overlord Body Peak was Venerable Zi Chen; essentially, most of the cultivation resources were in her hands.

So, no one else had the right to question whatever rewards Venerable Zi Chen decided to bestow upon Ye Chen.

Tuoba Xiong included.

”Impossible, our Peak Master would never give such rewards to this waste. Jin Kun, do you take me for a fool?” Tuoba Xiong couldn’t help but shout angrily.

To him, Ye Chen was someone who couldn’t even awaken his bloodline. Even if his Body Refining Talent was outstanding, Venerable Zi Chen certainly wouldn’t grant him such favorable treatment.

So, it was likely that Jin Kun was acting on his own.

Did he really think the other Elders of Overlord Body Peak were mere decorations?

”Tuoba Xiong, this decision is mine. Do you have any objections?” Just then, Venerable Zi Chen’s voice suddenly resonated in Tuoba Xiong’s mind, her tone filled with majesty.

”What? The Peak Master? How can this be?” Tuoba Xiong’s expression instantly froze, his face turning ghastly pale.

”Ye Chen’s Body Refining Talent has reached a Super Grade First Class level, unprecedented in our Overlord Body Peak. So, his enjoying such treatment is natural. What is there to question? Furthermore, from today onwards, he is no longer wanted by our Azure Sky Immortal Sect. If you dare to target him intentionally, be prepared for the consequences,” Venerable Zi Chen coldly transmitted her message to Tuoba Xiong from a hidden corner of Life and Death Peak.
