Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 611: I Donʼt Agree to This Marriage!

After discussing details with the Holy Master, Ye Chen headed straight to Senior Anʼs place. Years had passed, and his longing for her, mixed with the Nether Poisonʼs itch, flared up. On the universe, he couldnʼt offer gifts, a key reason for his return. Otherwise, he mightʼve stayed two more years.

Since gaining the Seven Extremes Immortal Body, Senior Anʼs cultivation had soared. With Ye Chen showering her with treasures, sheʼd reached mid-Unity Stage, with late-Unity in sight.

His master, he learned from the Holy Master, was at late-Unity, likely having refined the sealed sword intent within her. Thinking of her exasperated, indulgent expression, Ye Chen smiled. It was almost time. After dealing with the third-generation Star River Divine Son, heʼd grow closer to his master. The thought excited him. His reaction caught Senior An, mid-detox, off guard, her brows rising in surprise.

Soon, An Yu Yi arrived, diverting her attention. After years, An Yu Yi had matured, blooming like a vibrant immortal flower. In contrast, Senior An remained cool and serene, her conscience clear.

After days of tender moments, Ye Chen, pressed for time, skipped visiting Elder Lin, whoʼd sent multiple urgent messages and lined the path to welcome him. He promised her next time, then, under her resentful gaze, headed to Heavenly Intention Immortal City.

...

Heavenly Intention Immortal City had waned since Heavenly Evolution Holy Landʼs schemes and the fall of its Holy Son, dimming its former glory. But this month, it buzzed with life. Immortal boats and towers crowded outside, and cultivators filled the streets. Not only did Great Yan Continentʼs forces sent guests, but Central Continentʼs sects dispatched elders and prodigies to witness the event.

The third-generation Star River Divine Son was at his peak. Since rising, heʼd defeated numerous prodigies on the Immortal Path, even slaying an avatar of Hua Yunfei, the Moral Heavenly Venerableʼs heir. This restored the Star River Clanʼs prestige, earning him the title of their most dazzling Divine Son in a million years.

Heavenly Intention Holy Landʼs Yi Qingwu was equally renowned. Though not yet at Mahayana, her peak Unity cultivation promised an imminent breakthrough. Her debut in Central Continent stunned cultivators, who dubbed her the Moonlight Divine Maiden. Her combat prowess was undeniable—a second-tier Central Continent female prodigyʼs fiancé, smitten by Yi Qingwu, sparked a challenge. In a same-realm duel, Yi Qingwu sent her flying with a single moonlight strike, winning decisively.

With both beauty and strength, she shone brightly. Now, with her potential marriage, everyone wanted to witness it.

The fact that the Heavenly Emperorʼs heir, Ye Chen, was infatuated with Yi Qingwu was no secret. Heʼd sent her countless precious gifts, fought multiple battles for her, and even killed her former fiancé in a fit of rage. Yet, heʼd never won her heart.

With Ye Chenʼs temperament, if he was alive, heʼd never allow Yi Qingwu to marry another. Heʼd surely show up.

Everyone speculated whether Ye Chen would appear in Heavenly Intention Immortal City. If he did, they could see what had happened to him—why a prodigy who fought six peers and killed three Mahayana cultivators across realms had vanished for eight years, missing even the Immortal Pathʼs opening.

Discussions about Ye Chen surged again.

By noon, Heavenly Intention Immortal City buzzed with excitement. The Star River Clanʼs immortal boat, crossing the vast Endless Sea, arrived. It hovered above the city, and a young man in a star robe, radiating starlight, stepped out. Each step conjured a massive star beneath his feet, his formidable aura stunning all.

A Second Heaven Holy Master of the Mahayana Stage, his domain, primordial spirit, and body perfectly fused, his power transcendent.

Countless cultivators gazed at the Star River King Body in awe.

He and several clan elders were soon welcomed into Heavenly Intention Holy Land. News spread quickly: that evening, a grand discussion on the Dao would be held at Heavenly Intention Palace, with both the Star River Divine Son and Yi Qingwu attending. Having never met, this event was a platform for their introduction.

All young cultivators could attend, witnessing the Divine Son and Holy Maiden while hearing prodigies and Great Powers discuss the Dao. A single word from them might resolve cultivation dilemmas.

The announcement caused a sensation. Young cultivators revered the strong, eager to see the Star River Divine Son, who dominated the Immortal Path, and Great Yanʼs top fairy, Yi Qingwu, while listening to rare insights from Great Powers and Holy Masters. Countless flocked to secure spots.

As the sun set and the sky quieted, divine light illuminated every corner of Heavenly Intention Immortal City. Heavenly Intention Palace overflowed with cultivators, seated by cultivation level—lower realms at the back.

Unable to fly in the city, a Golden Core youth strained on tiptoes to glimpse Yi Qingwu, grumbling, ”A fairy like Yi Qingwu shouldnʼt take a partner. If she must, it shouldnʼt be the Star River King Body—an outsider stealing our Great Yan divine maiden! If anyone, it shouldʼve been Ye the Fourth. He had flaws, but he cherished his women. This Star River Divine Son only cares about cultivation—what use is such a partner? I donʼt approve of this marriage!”

His friends hushed him. A Mahayana Power could overhear, and a mere glance could crush a Golden Core. Besides, with the coupleʼs perfect match, what right did he have to object?

Silenced, the youth fell quiet.

Then, a hand patted his shoulder, and a voice tinged with amusement spoke, ”Youʼve got good taste, friend. I also think the Fourth Holy Son is a better fit. So, I donʼt approve of this marriage either…”
