Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 643: Ye Chenʼs Bound to Fawn Over Me!

Ye Chen ignored Luo Binglingʼs question. He waved to his master, then smiled at the Sword Sect ancestor. ”Thanks for caring for my master!”

Summoning a Kun Peng true spirit, he soared away.

Gu Yunyun smiled. Watching him leave, she felt this was fine. No need for the Immortal Path, sheʼd cultivate quietly in the Sword Sect. Ye Chen could visit when free.

The ancestor, hearing Ye Chenʼs words, beamed like a blooming chrysanthemum. Heʼd chosen right. Focus on nurturing Gu Yunyun, and with the fourth Holy Sonʼs generosity, rewards would follow. He might extend his lifespan, break through minor realms.

If Ye Chen became an immortal, his bond with Gu Yunyun could secure an Immortal Realm slot. He had to pamper her. With utmost patience, he smiled at Gu Yunyun. ”Ready? Letʼs head to the sea eye for your breakthrough, no delays! Ask me any sword Dao questions during the process…”

Gu Yunyun glanced at him, surprised. A Saint lecturing personally? A rare chance. Sword Dao? After Ye Chenʼs full teachings, she felt no need for guidance. She almost wanted to ask if he had questions.

…

Leaving the Sword Sect, Ye Chen finally eyed Luo Bingling. Her features were bold, strikingly beautiful. Her figure matched—nearly as voluptuous as his master, rivaling Senior Sister Yao Xiʼs fullness. Her waist stole the show—refined, powerful, with defined abs when she moved, with a gem on her navel sparkled. Unique beauty.

Despite her suspicious motives, her 4,000-fold multiplier prompted a calm reply. ”The Heavenly Emperorʼs chariot was struck by a myriad race immortal, losing spirituality, dropping from Supreme to ordinary Dao Weapon.”

Luo Bingling nodded, scanning it approvingly. With a Vicious Ten spirit, if restored, itʼd be a supreme Extreme Dao Weapon. Sheʼd dominate with it. A pity it was damaged.

”Fellow Daoist Ye, you should repair it. With the Heavenly Emperorʼs treasury—divine materials, immortal treasures, even artifacts—fixing it should be easy!”

She hoped heʼd restore it, then gift it to her. She already found him sitting beside her annoying. This chariot was meant for her alone.

Ye Chen glanced at Luo Bingling when she mentioned the Heavenly Emperorʼs treasury. Did she really think he was the Heavenly Emperorʼs heir, with access to some treasury? And mentioning immortal artifacts? Did she, or the War God Clan, believe the Heavenly Emperor hid the Dao Cauldron? Was she probing him?

He pondered but answered casually, ”No repairs. Too many supreme Extreme Dao Weapons. If I fix the chariot, others would just sit in the treasury!”

Luo Bingling shot him a sidelong glance. Was that human speech? Even she, a War God Clan princess, wouldnʼt dare say that. Always showing off?

She sneered inwardly. Her clan was ruthless, action-oriented, no nonsense. After a pause, she asked, ”How long will you stay at Heavenly Evolution Holy Land? The secret realmʼs about to open!”

Ye Chenʼs lips curved. Still fishing with the secret realm? Opening just for him?

Hiding his thoughts, he replied flatly, ”Iʼll prepare to break through to late First Heaven. Otherwise, I might not handle enemies on the Immortal Path. Probably one or two months.”

Luo Bingling frowned. Another one or two months? Human-filled air nauseated her. And Ye Chen, so strong, worried about losing? No invincible will? The War God Clan would never think that. But breaking through to late First Heaven Mahayana in a month or two? Heʼd just reached Mahayana, hit mid-tier in the Sword Sect, and now neared late-tier. That speed was absurd. Did he really have the Dao Cauldron?

Feigning shock, she asked, ”Fellow Daoist Ye, howʼs your breakthrough so fast? Talent? Or a special method?”

Ye Chen smiled faintly. ”No talent or special tricks. Just effort.”

Her fist clenched on the chariotʼs rail. Two and a half months with a woman, and he called it effort? Effort, my foot! Die, all of you!

She went silent, realizing Ye Chen, despite his womanizing, wouldnʼt spill secrets to just any woman. Sheʼd need to get closer, build trust. Her plan was set: on the Immortal Path, sheʼd draw Ye Chenʼs old enemies. Theyʼd fight side by side. Sheʼd take a hit for him at a critical moment.

Nothing built bonds like shared battles. By then, sheʼd have him hooked, fishing for answers. But he was stronger than expected—not human boasts, but real. Sheʼd need more enemies for him.

…

Luo Bingling stayed quiet. Ye Chen, in sage mode, ignored her waist, focused on reaching the Holy Land. A week later, they entered Heavenly Evolution Holy Landʼs range. The faint outline of its gate was visible, tens of thousands of miles away.

The chariot stopped. Luo Bingling looked at Ye Chen, puzzled. He smiled lightly. ”Meeting Fellow Daoist Luo is fate, and your secret realm invite delights me. Its value is immense; I canʼt ignore it! So, I gift you this. Please accept…”

He wanted to test this 4,000-fold womanʼs worth.

Luo Bingling raised a brow, chin lifting, sneering inwardly.

See? As expected. His earlier coldness was all an act!
