Chapter 280 - 279: Meeting Jiang Yunqi Again

Chapter 280: Chapter 279: Meeting Jiang Yunqi Again

Along the way, he had indeed feared that Ye Xuan might be dissatisfied, but fortunately, everything went perfectly, and Young Master Ye also accepted the token, just in time to report to the vice-chairman.

After the last time, Old He had transferred to work under Qi Xiaobo.

Regarding many internal messages, Old He could also know them at the first moment.

The Spiritual Boat Association had put a lot of effort into the matter with Ye Xuan.

Some powerful vice-chairmen expressed the intention to trouble Ye Xuan, but Qi Xiaobo advocated winning him over.

Because he was aware of the terrifying power of Ye Xuan, or perhaps the dreadfulness of the person behind Ye Xuan.

And that issue had been a continuous uproar at the time.

Ultimately, that mysterious chairman overcame all objections and decreed that the Spiritual Boat Association would treat Ye Xuan with the highest standards of etiquette going forward.

Thus, the matter was finally settled.

This chairman was immensely mysterious, but no one dared to question him, so everyone followed his commands.

Old He had also received orders from Qi Xiaobo that if he saw Ye Xuan, he must treat him with great care and must not neglect him.

This was also why along the way, Old He was always anxious, fearing that he had not served Ye Xuan well enough.

However, throughout the journey, he found that Ye Xuan did not make things difficult at all and even for ordinary matters, he would not trouble him.

This had initially made Old He somewhat frightened, thinking that Ye Xuan was dissatisfied.

It was only now, as Ye Xuan accepted the token, that he breathed a great sigh of relief.

Boom boom boom—

Soon, three Spirit Boats arrived at Yinling City, landing at the Spirit Boat Pier.

This Spirit Boat Pier was much larger than the one they had used on their journey here.

The entire Spirit Boat Pier could accommodate tens of thousands of Spirit Boats.

Moreover, they were all High-Grade Spirit Boats, and there were even quite a few Special-Grade Spirit Boats. In comparison, the High-Grade Spirit Boat that Ye Xuan and his group were riding barely stood out.

And the Middle-Grade Spirit Boats ridden by the three major forces seemed particularly unremarkable.

This made the disciples of the three major forces look somewhat displeased.

Being all young people, they naturally cared about their appearances, seeing all the High-Grade and Special-Grade Spirit Boats around them, and riding Middle-Grade Spirit Boats themselves, they indeed felt quite uncomfortable.

Involuntarily, they all internally blamed Ye Xuan.

If it weren’t for Ye Xuan making things difficult, they would have been riding High-Grade Spirit Boats.

However, after the incident two days ago, they dared not say anything.

Even if dissatisfied, they could only grumble to themselves.

"Wow, Yinling City really is so big," Zhou Bingyi exclaimed excitedly as she hopped off the Spirit Boat, her face filled with excitement.

Many disciples from Emperor Immortal Sect were also looking around, their eyes revealing a hint of nervousness and excitement.

This was their first time traveling so far and seeing such a large city.

In their hearts, they inevitably felt a bit nervous and excited.

"A bunch of country bumpkins..." the people from the three major forces secretly sneered as they observed the behavior of the disciples from Emperor Immortal Sect.

However, they had forgotten that when they first came to Yinling City, they had behaved no differently.

"Senior Mu, we shall take our leave first," the Sect Masters of the three major forces said to Mu Baicheng, bowing slightly.

Immediately after, they also bowed to Old He, "Senior He, we will take our leave first."

Old He just hummed softly, following behind Ye Xuan.

Mu Baicheng nodded slightly.

Soon, the people from the three major forces had left.

After entering Yinling City, the most important thing naturally was to find a place to stay.

Otherwise, so many people sleeping on the street would not be proper.

As for going outside Yinling City and using mobile palaces to camp?

That would be courting death.

If something happened outside Yinling City, Yinling City would not take any responsibility.

Previously, a not-so-small force came to Yinling City and felt that the lodging fees within the city were too expensive, so they ran outside the city and settled in using a group of mobile palaces.

The next morning, it was discovered that all members of that force had been killed, and their valuables were plundered.

Because of that incident, many cultivators coming to Yinling City, even though they knew the city’s lodging fees were expensive, opted to stay within the city.

After all, no one wanted to be killed in their sleep.

Boom boom boom—

Just then, another Special-Grade Spirit Boat landed at the Spirit Boat Pier, its appearance formidable.

"Cousin Youwei!"

No sooner had the Spirit Boat landed than a call was heard.

Ye Xuan and the others halted and turned to look back.

On the top of the special-grade Spirit Boat, Jiang Yunqi was waving his hand, smiling as he greeted Zhou Youwei.

Beside Jiang Yunqi were quite a few people as well.

Each one of them had an extraordinary aura, with sharp light flashing in their eyes.

Among them were two familiar faces.

Yun Chen and Yun Tong.

These two had also appeared at the birthday event previously held by the Huainan Mountain Jiang Family.

They were indeed the children of Jiang Jing, the sister of Jiang Yin, the mother-in-law of Ye Xuan, hailed as the unparalleled geniuses of the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect.

Unexpectedly, he encountered the two again in this trip to the Southern Ghost Tomb.

However, this time, they were not brought here by Jiang Yin but by an elder with black hair, whose aura was overwhelming, each breath of his resembling thunder.

"Why are they here as well?"

Zhou Bingyi, initially in high spirits, furrowed her brow slightly upon seeing Jiang Yunqi along with Yun Chen and Yun Tong, murmuring softly.

She vividly remembered the incident at the Huainan Mountain Jiang Family last time.

Thus, she truly had no fond feelings towards the people of the Jiang family.

Zhou Youwei slightly furrowed her brows and looked towards Jiang Yunqi and the others, nodding lightly as a form of greeting.

Back then, at the Huainan Mountain Jiang Family, all ties had essentially been severed; there was nothing good to be said.

"Young Master Ye, do you know the people from the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect?" Old He asked softly, somewhat surprised.

Ye Xuan stood still, glanced at Jiang Yunqi and the group, and spoke slowly, "No, I don’t."

The people of the Jiang Family had too many ill intentions; he truly couldn’t say he felt any goodwill towards them.

As for Yun Chen and Yun Tong, strictly speaking, they were Youwei’s cousins.

"Those two are the Divine Son Yun Chen and the Goddess Yun Tong from the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect, siblings to each other," Old He cautiously introduced to Ye Xuan.

"Are they the ones from the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect who’ve recently risen to fame in the Southern Domain?" Mu Baicheng asked, somewhat surprised.

"Brother Mu has heard of them?" Old He asked in astonishment.

Mu Baicheng nodded slightly, "I’ve heard some rumors; it’s been said that both are Heavenly Cloud Divine Bodies, young yet they have jointly slain an Eighth Rank Fierce Beast."

"It’s not just rumors, but a fact," Old He replied slowly.

"What? An Eighth Rank Fierce Beast?!"

The conversation between Mu Baicheng and Old He suddenly shocked the disciples of the Emperor Immortal Sect.

A Seventh Rank Fierce Beast already possessed the strength of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm.

An Eighth Rank Fierce Beast, wouldn’t that be even more formidable than the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm?

For a moment, everyone’s gaze towards Yun Chen and Yun Tong, who were descending from the special-grade Spirit Boat, underwent significant changes.

These two, so young, yet already possessing such strength!

By comparison, they seemed much weaker.

Subconsciously, their gazes shifted towards Ye Xuan and Zhou Youwei, comparing them in their minds.

Would their senior brother and Sister Zhou possess such strength?

"The Miao Xuan Stage Divine Body, nothing surprising," Ye Xuan said slowly and clearly.

When he had met them previously at the Jiang Family in Huainan Mountain, he had already discerned that Yun Chen and Yun Tong possessed the same Divine Body.

The siblings both having the same Divine Body was extremely rare.

However, to Ye Xuan, it wasn’t something unusual.

In a certain era, he had seen ten types of the same Divine Body emerge, and none of those had any known origins.

Back then, Yun Chen and Yun Tong had been at the introductory stage of their Divine Bodies, and in less than half a year, they had advanced to the Miao Xuan Stage, which was a decent pace of cultivation.

A Miao Xuan Stage Divine Body, powerful enough to slay an Eighth Rank Fierce Beast, was not surprising.

Moreover, there were two divine beings.

"Miao Xuan Stage?" Old He felt awe-struck internally. Young Master Ye indeed was extraordinary, able to discern this at a glance.

"Sister Youwei, Sister Bingyi,"

At this moment, Jiang Yunqi and the others had already disembarked from the special-grade Spirit Boat, with a group moving grandly toward Ye Xuan and the others.

At least a thousand people.

And their thousand people were not inferior to those of the Emperor Immortal Sect; among them, the weakest were at the Sealing King Level, while most were in the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm...

The two groups were simply incomparable!

"Are those people from the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect?"

The cultivators around, seeing this scene, kept their distance, their faces full of reverent fear.

The Heavens Cloud Divine Sect, in the entire Southern Domain, was truly a colossal force, no ordinary cultivator dared to provoke them.

"Who are those guys, could it be they’ve provoked someone from the Heavens Cloud Divine Sect?" someone speculated, watching Ye Xuan and the others.

"Let’s stay further away to avoid getting involved."
