Supreme Lord of Towers

”Ye Chen, tonight we’ll stay at the Xuanlong Inn for one night. If you want to join us for the auction tomorrow, come to the Xuanlong Inn to meet us, understood?” Hei Bo said to Ye Chen indifferently, his attitude appearing quite cold.

He truly felt immensely disappointed in Ye Chen.

He had originally thought that after Ye Chen took the Awakening Pill, he would surely awaken the bloodline within him.

By then, with his Martial Arts Talent and Body Refining Talent, he would certainly have hopes of competing with the disciples of the Six Great Sacred Lands.

But now, this little fantasy had completely turned into a bubble.

He really hadn’t expected that Ye Chen would be so useless that even the Awakening Pill couldn’t awaken his bloodline.

This was truly too pathetic!

Hence, his attitude towards Ye Chen instantly became extremely cold.

After all, this waste who couldn’t even awaken his bloodline could never possibly aid his young lady.

He naturally didn’t need to be overly warm to Ye Chen.

”No need, I’ll go by myself.” Ye Chen said calmly.

”Hmph! Ye Chen, you probably don’t know yet, my young lady holds a Golden Member Card from the Celestial Pill Pavilion, right? If you knew, you wouldn’t be saying such things. You still have time to change your mind, otherwise, don’t regret it later.” Zhu Er said with a cold smile, her eyebrows full of pride.

Her young lady, being a disciple of the Ziwei Sacred Land, holds a very high status.

Even the top management of the Celestial Pill Pavilion eagerly sought her favor, hence they gifted her a Golden Member Card.

It’s known that such a level of membership card is generally only available to Golden Core Realm experts, representing the highest status.

As long as you hold this card and attend the auction held by the Celestial Pill Pavilion, you can have an exclusive VIP room.

Therefore, for Ye Chen to attend the auction with her young lady, it would absolutely be a great honor.

If he still refuses, that would be truly foolish.

”Golden Member Card?” Ye Chen couldn’t help but be taken aback.

He hadn’t expected Shangguan Zitong to have a Golden Member Card from the Celestial Pill Pavilion.

After all, Shangguan Zitong’s Cultivation hadn’t even stepped into the Golden Core Realm; under normal circumstances, she wouldn’t obtain a Golden Member Card, only a Silver Member Card at best.

Yet, unexpectedly, she did possess a Golden Member Card.

It seems that the strong practitioners of the Celestial Pill Pavilion still valued the disciples from the Six Great Sacred Lands like Shangguan Zitong.

”Ha! Now you know the capabilities of my young lady, don’t you? An ignorant frog like you has probably never even seen a Silver Member Card, let alone a Golden Member Card!” Zhu Er said with a strong hint of mockery in her voice, her expression extremely disdainful.

Yes!

Ye Chen had indeed become a True Disciple of the Overlord Body Peak.

But his Cultivation had only just entered the Divine Mansion Realm, and even if the Celestial Pill Pavilion wanted to curry favor with him, at most they would only give him a Bronze Member Card.

As for a Silver Member Card, it’s generally only given to Profound Pill Realm experts; Ye Chen simply wasn’t qualified.

So, he most likely hadn’t even seen a Silver Member Card.

”I indeed have not seen a Silver Member Card because I simply don’t need it, alright, you may leave now, I’ll attend the auction myself tomorrow.” Ye Chen said indifferently.

It’s worth mentioning that he actually held a Purple Gold Member Card, which only the highest-level members of the Celestial Pill Pavilion could possess.

So, he simply didn’t need a Silver Member Card.

”Young lady, you see, we kindly invited him to join us for the auction, but he had such an attitude; he’s really too ungrateful.” Zhu Er’s body trembled slightly, her face incredibly unpleasant as she spoke.

She originally thought that after Ye Chen knew her young lady had a Golden Member Card, he would eagerly follow her to the auction.

After all, such opportunities weren’t something one encountered often.

But unexpectedly, Ye Chen was not at all moved and even decisively refused.

This clearly went beyond her expectations.

”Ye Chen, you are quite proud, but I advise you not to be so stubborn. This brings you no benefit.” Hei Bo couldn’t help but shake his head.

In his view, Ye Chen was simply too foolish; he clearly could attend the auction with his young lady and enjoy the numerous privileges of a Golden Member Card.

But because of his self-esteem, he chose to forsake this rare opportunity.

He would surely regret it later on.

”Hei Bo, since Ye Chen is unwilling to go with us, let’s not force him, let’s go.” Shangguan Zitong couldn’t help but sigh, her expression very downcast.

She genuinely wanted to use her current status and resources to help Ye Chen as much as possible.

However, his pride was too strong, always unwilling to accept her help.

This left her feeling quite helpless as well.

”Sigh! After all, Ye Chen was once the young master of the Ye Clan, having a strong sense of pride is normal, I just hope he can slowly accept reality and realize he’s no longer the person he once was.” Shangguan Zitong thought silently as she walked out of the hall.

”Zitong, we’ll meet at the auction tomorrow.” Ye Chen smiled slightly as he saw Shangguan Zitong off to the palace gates.

”Mm!” Shangguan Zitong nodded, giving Ye Chen a deep look before taking off with Hei Bo and Zhu Er, disappearing swiftly into the sky.

”Chen’er, Fairy Zitong is a good girl; even though you couldn’t awaken your bloodline, she didn’t despise you. Don’t let her down in the future.” Xiao Hui couldn’t help but remark emotionally.

”Godmother, my engagement with her was arranged by my grandfather and the head of the Shangguan Family; the two of us don’t have deep feelings for each other yet, and it’s uncertain if we’ll end up together in the future.” A bitter smile appeared on Ye Chen’s lips.

He admitted that Shangguan Zitong was rare in both appearance and Talent.

However, his impression of her remained from when they were young, and the bond between them only extended to friendship at the moment.

Whether or not love would blossom between them in the future, would be up to fate.

Should Shangguan Zitong find her true love one day, Ye Chen certainly wouldn’t stand in her way.

”Feelings develop over time, and where else could you find a good girl like Fairy Zitong?” Xiao Hui sighed.

She truly hoped Ye Chen could end up with Shangguan Zitong.

After all, she was exceptional and did not disdain Ye Chen.

Ye Chen should consider himself quite fortunate to have such a fiancée.

”I will try to get along with her.” Ye Chen nodded.

Time flew by.

In a blink of an eye, the next day arrived.

Early in the morning, Ye Chen left his residence and headed towards the direction of Azure Sky City.

He was apparently going to attend the largest auction in the history of the Cang Province.
