Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 512: Chapter 512: Jade Heavenly Venerable is Actually Yun Xiao...

”How could Jade Heavenly Venerable... be Yun Xiao?!”

Staring at the stunningly beautiful woman in blue, the sight of that familiar face, as if from a dream, reawakened the memories deeply buried in Ye Yun’s heart. Ye Yun had never expected that Jade Heavenly Venerable of the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace would not be Nangong Jade, but Yun Xiao instead.

A hundred thousand years ago, that adorable little girl with two pigtails always followed Ye Yun around, clamoring every day that she would chase away all of Ye Yun’s other women. After Ye Yun’s disappearance, Yun Xiao cultivated the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path, severed all her desires and memories of this life, becoming the Ancestor of ten thousand demons revered by all Demon Clans of the Cangnan Continent.

”Why is Yun Xiao in the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace? Did the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path she cultivated originate from the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace?” Ye Yun muttered to himself. Many thoughts surfaced in his mind.

The Yun Xiao at this moment was vastly different from the Yun Xiao in the ancient painting. The Yun Xiao in the void, beneath her willow-like eyebrows, had eyes of an eerie silver-white color, which continuously emitted a terrifying coldness that was utterly chilling. This Yun Xiao, as Jade Heavenly Venerable, was clearly more powerful in the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path than the wisp of consciousness that had been sealed on the Cangnan Continent. She was far more indifferent and ruthless.

Ye Yun knew clearly that even if he appeared before her now, this Yun Xiao, proficient in the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path, would absolutely not recognize him.

Watching Yun Xiao, with her silver eyes, so aloof and cold, walk to the lotus platform and sit down, Ye Yun sighed inwardly. His disappearance a hundred thousand years ago was the true primary cause of Yun Xiao cultivating the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path. Back then, Ye Yun had always felt that Yun Xiao was too young and, moreover, a member of the Demon Clan, so he had never made any overly intimate gestures towards her. To a certain extent, it was always Yun Xiao who actively followed Ye Yun, actively showed goodwill, like a headstrong little princess, pestering him endlessly every day.

Ye Yun looked again at this ”Jade Heavenly Venerable” on the multicolored lotus. He didn’t know what had happened to Yun Xiao. Was it because she had cultivated the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path, broken through to the True God Realm, and then left the Cangnan Continent? Or... had the Supreme God Sovereign long ago left the cultivation technique inheritance of the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path on the Cangnan Continent and, after sensing something, sent someone to bring her here? Ye Yun pondered it, but no clear idea came to mind.

However, Ye Yun felt that this trip to the Divine Land was truly worth it. He had originally intended to find the Demon God of the Yuan Mo Clan to understand how that fellow knew he possessed a Purple Gold Pipe. Unexpectedly, events had taken a major turn. Instead, a powerful, Supreme Level existence from another world had been revealed. And by accompanying Wu De to participate in the martial arts contest for marriage selection held by the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace, Ye Yun had once again seen a familiar face from a hundred thousand years ago. This was truly unfathomable. Originally, Ye Yun had approached this martial arts contest with a playful attitude. But now that Yun Xiao had appeared, he naturally couldn’t let anyone lay a hand on her. Ye Yun was determined to win first place in the martial arts competition. Then, Ye Yun planned to thoroughly investigate the Supreme God Sovereign and find out how Yun Xiao had come to the Supreme Realm. At the same time, he wanted to have a serious discussion with the Supreme God Sovereign to see if there was any way to reverse Yun Xiao’s current state.

”What a cold little beauty, far more intriguing than those other Heavenly Venerables,” Wu De remarked, taking a few puffs from his pipe and chuckling excitedly.

”Stop dreaming. This Jade Heavenly Venerable can only be mine,” Ye Yun said nonchalantly.

”No matter what, I have to exchange a move or two with you, Fellow Daoist, only then will I be content!” Wu De chuckled, still immensely confident in himself.

”Senior, many of those in there are experts at the Fifth and Sixth Layers of the Divine Sovereign Realm...” the Blood-thirsty Demon King said, glancing at Ye Yun and hesitating.

”So what?” Ye Yun’s expression turned cold.

”Senior, if you can defeat them, that would be... truly unimaginable...” Facing Ye Yun’s icy stare, the Blood-thirsty Demon King shivered and spoke weakly.

This Senior Long Yunzi is merely at the Second Layer of the Divine Sovereign Realm. Can he really defeat someone at the Sixth Layer of the Divine Sovereign Realm? Is the Dragon Clan truly that terrifying? The Blood-thirsty Demon King harbored doubts about whether Ye Yun could win. After all, the disparity was too great. Those present were all members of the Demon Clans, their physical bodies extremely powerful; coupled with their high cultivation realms, attempting to fight across levels was nearly as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

”Let us welcome the Supreme God Sovereign!”

The woman’s voice rang out again, this time even more resonant, spreading throughout almost the entire Supreme Realm.

An immense pressure instantly descended upon the entire Supreme Forgetful Love Palace. Under this pressure, everyone couldn’t help but tremble.

”So powerful! Truly worthy of being the Supreme God Sovereign. He’s only half a step away from the Divine King Realm,” someone uttered tremulously.

The same thought arose in the minds of the other cultivators at this moment. The Supreme God Sovereign, a veteran expert of the Divine Sovereign Realm who had cultivated in the Supreme Realm for hundreds of thousands of years, had always possessed unfathomable strength.

”This Supreme God Sovereign... is truly quite formidable,” Wu De muttered softly, his lips pursed. He naturally also felt that tremendous pressure, though he could only mitigate a portion of it.

He glanced up at Ye Yun beside him. Wu De was suddenly astonished. He found Ye Yun still calm and unperturbed, as if nothing was amiss.

”Fellow Daoist, is the physique of a Divine Dragon truly that strong? To be able to withstand such immense pressure from the Supreme God Sovereign?” Wu De asked quietly.

”I told you before, the first place in this martial arts contest for marriage selection will definitely be mine. You are not my opponent. Do you understand now?” Ye Yun said with a calm smile.

”I still want to compete with you. Only by losing to you will I be thoroughly convinced,” Wu De harrumphed in frustration, raising his Purple Gold Pipe and puffing on it repeatedly.

At this moment, an ethereal figure walked out of the void. The figure’s features were indistinct, existing somewhere between illusion and reality. The appearance of the Supreme God Sovereign caused the surrounding void to ripple strangely. A larger multicolored lotus suddenly materialized beneath the ethereal figure’s feet. The Supreme God Sovereign sat cross-legged, and nine silver-white divine rings suddenly appeared behind his head, glowing brilliantly and continuously emanating a mysterious aura as they revolved.

”Truly worthy of being the Supreme God Sovereign. He has already cultivated nine divine rings of the Supreme Forgetting Emotions Path,” a cultivator murmured softly, a look of awe and fear on his face.

”Everyone...” In the void, the indistinct figure of the Supreme God Sovereign suddenly spoke.

The entire scene instantly fell silent; not a sound could be heard.

”This martial arts contest for marriage selection will be divided into four groups—A, B, C, and D—proceeding simultaneously. The top contestant from each group will be selected, and then they will compete in pairs. The final victor will become Jade Heavenly Venerable’s husband. Do you all understand?”

As the Supreme God Sovereign’s cool voice resonated throughout the venue, the hearts of all the Divine Sovereign Realm experts from the Demon Clans in the square began to pound with excitement.

”We understand, Supreme God Sovereign!” countless people shouted in unison at this moment.

The Supreme God Sovereign looked down at the fervent cultivators below, his expression as tranquil as an ancient well. Suddenly, he waved his hand gently.

Four enormous Martial Arts Spaces materialized in mid-air. Each space was incredibly vast and surrounded by powerful formations to prevent any shockwaves from leaking out.

”Then, let it begin!”

The Supreme God Sovereign’s words descended from mid-air.
