The very next moment, Zining’s figure flashed and disappeared completely. Soon, she returned to Ye Chen’s side with a woman. It was Wu Xing.

“Wu Xing, are you alright?”

After Ye Chen smashed Huang Can’s head, he put away Huang Can’s storage ring and asked with concern when he saw Zining had brought her back back.

Wu Xing seemed to be in a state of shock. When she saw Ye Chen, she could no longer control herself and she sobbed softly. “Huang Can, Huang Can, he…”

Ye Chen gently patted Wu Xing’s back and comforted her. “It’s alright now. It’s alright. No one has the right to touch my friends…”

At the same time, his spiritual sense swept across Wu Xing ‘er’s body and he heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed that Huang Can had only planted the Same Life Lock and did not have time to do anything else to harm Wu Xing. Other than being frightened, Wu Xing was fine.

“Where’s my father?” Wu Xing finally calmed down and asked Ye Chen with tears in her eyes.

“Brother Wu is fine. He’s recuperating.”

Only then did she feel completely relieved. She glanced at Huang Can’s corpse and was slightly shocked.

“This is Huang Can. He’s dead as can be,” Ye Chen said with a smile.

“But… Didn’t Huang Can say that he planted the Same Life Lock in my body?” Wu Xing asked curiously, “Why am I alive?”

Ye Chen explained everything that had happened to Wu Xing, and her eyes were filled with shock and surprise.

She had never thought that her father would rescue such a genius.

..

“Ye Chen, the Immortal Ascension Competition is over. There’s no reason to stay here anymore. Let’s head to the Mystic Moon Sect,” Zining said to Ye Chen.

“Senior Sister, I still have some things to deal with. Could I stay for another day?”

Zining naturally agreed. One day was nothing to cultivators.

“There’s one more thing…” Ye Chen glanced at Wu Xing and said, “Could Wu Xing join the Mystic Moon Sect as well?”

This was also Ye Chen’s gift to the Wu family.

After all, he was not sure if Huang Can had any accomplices or friends.

If these people existed, once he left, Wu Wei and Wu Xing would probably become targets of their retaliation.

If Wu Xing joined the Mystic Moon Sect, no one would dare to touch the Wu family.

More importantly, Ye Chen would not stay in the Mystic Moon Sect for too long either. After all, he still had to meet up with Liang Xueyue and Ji Lin.

When Zining heard this, she reached out and placed her hand on Wu Xing’s shoulder. Spiritual energy entered her body and she shook her head after checking for a while.

“Miss Wu’s talent isn’t suitable for cultivating in the Mystic Moon Sect. It’s decent, but not enough. She doesn’t have a special physique or bloodline. Even if she joins the sect, she can only be a servant disciple.”

Wu Xing’s eyes instantly dimmed.

“However…” Zining continued, “Although Miss Wu doesn’t have any special talent, she has a slightly ordinary physique called the Cloud Spirit Body. It’s quite suitable for the cultivation technique of the Cloud Nether Sect, which is a subsidiary sect of our Mystic Moon Sect. The Cloud Nether Sect isn’t far from the Mystic Moon Sect. I can provide a recommendation for her to join that sect instead.”

“Wu Xing, are you willing?” Ye Chen turned around and asked.

“I’m willing!” Initially, she was not that concerned about cultivation. However, she now knew that she had to protect her father and herself.

Although the Cloud Nether Sect could not compare to the Mystic Moon Sect, it was not weak either. Joining this sect would provide an umbrella of protection for her and her father in Heaven Ascension City.

Ye Chen nodded. Suddenly, his gaze shifted and he looked at a middle-aged man not far away with a faint smile. This man was a half-step Creation realm expert.

It was the Immortal Ascension Pavilion Master!

Although Huang Can was dead, he had not paid off the debt he owed.

When the Immortal Ascension Pavilion Master saw Ye Chen looking at him, his expression turned bitter. He hated that b*stard Huang Can to the core. It was fine if he died, but he had also implicated the Immortal Ascension Pavilion.

However, at this moment, he could only force a smile. He walked toward Ye Chen and smiled.” Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Ye. You’ve won first place in this year’s Immortal Ascension Competition…”

Ye Chen was no longer someone he could afford to provoke.

Ye Chen smiled. “You’re too polite, Pavilion Master. Can I redeem my bet at your gambling den?”

The Immortal Ascension Pavilion Master’s face twitched. He took out a storage pouch and handed it to Ye Chen. “Of course. Fellow Daoist, please count the winnings.”

Ye Chen took the storage pouch and put it away without even looking at it. He said, “There’s no need to look. I trust you, Pavilion Master.”

He was confident that the Immortal Ascension Pavilion would not dare to offend him for a mere 50,000 top-grade immortal stones. That would be a disaster.

“Well then, I’ll take my leave,” replied the Immortal Ascension Pavilion Master with a bitter smile.

“Take care.”

After the Immortal Ascension Pavilion Master left, another young man walked toward Ye Chen expressionlessly. It was Wang Yifei!

“My life is yours. What are you going to do with it?” Wang Yifei asked bluntly.

He had never imagined that Ye Chen would be so terrifying. He believed in his talent, but compared to Ye Chen, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.

As for strength… After witnessing Ye Chen defeat a Dao Integration realm expert artist, Wang Yifei no longer had any intention of challenging Ye Chen. This guy was not human at all!

A red-haired middle-aged man followed behind Wang Yifei. Zining whispered to Ye Chen, “That red-haired man is Xiang Ke, the representative of the second-rate Crimson Soul Sect.”

Xiang Ke also smiled bitterly at Ye Chen. He was quite satisfied with having Wang Yifei as his disciple, and did not want his disciple to fall into Ye Chen’s hands just like that.

“Little Friend Ye, please accept this. I hope it can resolve the conflict between you and Yifei.” After Xiang Ke finished speaking, he waved his hand and a storage pouch landed in Ye Chen’s hand.

Ye Chen glanced at them and his face lit up. It seemed that these major factions knew how to solve problems well.

Inside the storage pouch were some pretty good medicinal pills with different functions. Among them was a precious healing pill.

There was even a spacetime artifact!

Ye Chen nodded in satisfaction. In fact, he had never intended to do anything to Wang Yifei. Although Wang Yifei was a little arrogant, he was still a decent person.

As for Wang Yifei, he was dragged away by Xiang Ke with a displeased expression.

“I have something to attend to, so I’ll take my leave first,” Ye Chen said to Wu Xing and Zining.

“Alright, come to Yuelai Inn tomorrow,” Zining nodded and replied.

After Ye Chen parted ways with Zining and the others, he walked out of Heaven Ascension City and arrived at the Forest of Shadows. He took out the jade talisman that Chen Zhifan had given him and followed the directions on it, which led him to a cave. He stopped in front of a stone wall in the cave.

Ye Chen frowned as he stared at the stone wall for a long time. Even with his strong spiritual sense, he could not sense anything unusual. When he touched it, it was no different from an ordinary stone wall. He could not help but mutter to himself, “It’s indeed something special.”
