Chapter 828: Chapter 825: News

"Floating Mountain has agreed that as long as Miss Zhou joins Floating Mountain, once she becomes the Holy Daughter of Floating Mountain, she can bear that sacred object..."

Ji Ziqing spoke solemnly.

As she spoke, a trace of envy flashed in her beautiful eyes.

To bear that sacred object, what an honor it is.

She didn’t expect that Floating Mountain would give in so easily.

This also proves that in Floating Mountain’s eyes, Zhou Youwei absolutely has this qualification.

To know, she has now become an Immortal, yet still does not have such qualifications.

"She must become the Holy Daughter?" Ye Xuan slightly raised his eyebrows.

"..." Ji Ziqing was rendered speechless.

She felt somewhat frustrated.

After three seconds of silence, Ji Ziqing then said, "Mr. Ye, you know Floating Mountain is, their competition has always been ruthless. Although Miss Zhou’s potential has already been recognized by Floating Mountain, if she directly bears that sacred object, Floating Mountain certainly would not agree."

Ye Xuan touched his chin and said slowly, "Then there’s no room for negotiation."

Ji Ziqing looked at Ye Xuan, slightly frowning, and softly said, "Mr. Ye, are you truly not giving an inch? Surely you also understand what benefits Miss Zhou would have by joining Floating Mountain; we can discuss this matter more. If you persist like this, it would only waste Miss Zhou’s talent."

Ye Xuan, looking calm, said slowly, "Alright, I’ll compromise. You have her directly become Floating Mountain’s Holy Daughter."

"..." Ji Ziqing was speechless again.

After a while, Ji Ziqing, slightly helpless, coquettishly said, "Mr. Ye, can’t you stop teasing me..."

"I’m not joking." Ye Xuan chuckled, "With Floating Mountain’s temperament, when you received orders to come here, you must have had two bottom lines in mind."

Ji Ziqing’s pupils slightly contracted, squinting at Ye Xuan, while her heart surged with waves of shock.

About Ye Xuan’s background, she had long known it was extraordinary, but Ye Xuan’s words now left her unable to hide her astonishment.

Even Floating Mountain’s behavior patterns were crystal clear to Ye Xuan.

This guy, what kind of monster is he?

Ji Ziqing pondered for a while and softly said, "Since that’s the case, I won’t hide it from you. Floating Mountain’s biggest bottom line is to have Miss Zhou become a candidate for Holy Daughter and gain the position through competition."

"Alright." Ye Xuan nodded slightly.

This result had long been within his expectations.

"Then, about Miss Zhou..." Ji Ziqing mentioned.

"How long until the Floating Mountain’s Saint Heir and Holy Daughter selection battle?" Ye Xuan asked back.

"Within ten years." Ji Ziqing replied.

"No hurry, I’ll personally take Youwei there when the time comes." Ye Xuan said.

"You won’t let her go to Floating Mountain for cultivation earlier?" Ji Ziqing slightly froze.

"No rush." Ye Xuan answered.

"Then, I shall take my leave first." Ji Ziqing slightly bowed, and before leaving, she remembered something and looked at Ye Xuan, saying, "By the way, Mr. Ye, are you planning to go to the Medicine Pavilion now?"

Ye Xuan nodded, "Why?"

Ji Ziqing reminded, "People from the Ancient Demon Country are at the Medicine Pavilion; they’ve seemingly reached some kind of deal. Be careful, Mr. Ye."

"Just the Ancient Demon Country, if they dare to interfere, I don’t mind costing them a few heads." Ye Xuan smiled indifferently.

Ji Ziqing slightly bowed again, took her leave, and departed East Desolate Island, returning to Floating Mountain to report.

"Husband, do I really have to go to Floating Mountain?"

After Ji Ziqing left, Zhou Youwei stepped out from behind, softly speaking.

Ye Xuan nodded slightly, "That place is the most spiritually rich cultivation sacred land on Daozhou Continent. In every era, those who can join Floating Mountain almost always become powerful figures. This would greatly benefit you."

Nine thousand years ago, the Double Emperors reached the ultimate peak, causing Spiritual Energy to wither.

But as the Guardian God of Daozhou Continent, Floating Mountain wasn’t very affected.

Not only Floating Mountain, but also the other lands of Nine States Continent were similarly.

Zhou Youwei slightly shook her head, looked at Ye Xuan, and softly said, "It’s not about that..."

Ye Xuan looked at the slightly downcast Zhou Youwei, and realized she was saddened about being separated from him.

Ye Xuan spoke gently, "There is no feast that does not end."

Zhou Youwei, instantly filled with grievances, said, "Husband is saying we have to separate in the future?"

Ye Xuan’s mouth twitched slightly, "Of course not. Let’s each complete our own tasks and reunite later."

Before Ye Xuan finished speaking, he felt a fragrant breeze approach, followed by a beauty in his arms.

Zhou Youwei hugged Ye Xuan, softly saying, "Husband needn’t say this. Actually, Youwei understands, but thinking about being apart from Husband leaves me reluctant..."

Ye Xuan wrapped his hand around Zhou Youwei’s slender waist, taking in her fragrance, his eyes clear and said in a low voice, "Once I finish my tasks, you and I will join hands, never to be apart."

"I’ll listen to you." Zhou Youwei hugged even tighter, seemingly wanting to meld into Ye Xuan.

"You’re so dull."

At this moment, in front of Desolate Wolf Palace’s door, Lu Li leaned there, seriously saying.

Zhou Youwei, like a startled rabbit, jumped away, face flushed, and looking at Lu Li, she couldn’t help but say, "When did you come? How come there wasn’t any noise."

Lu Li immediately showcased a dead fish stare, with a grumpy tone, "I’ve been watching you for quite a while."

Ye Xuan, on the other hand, remained unfazed, glancing at Lu Li with no comment.

This guy is naturally insensitive, seemingly unable to perceive these emotional nuances.

Yet, such a person cultivates with unmatched focus, which may be both advantageous and disadvantageous.

"I heard the Medicine Pavilion reached some kind of deal with the Ancient Demon Country." Lu Li looked at Ye Xuan, saying.

"Dragon Burying Court told you?" Ye Xuan said.

Lu Li gently nodded, "The people from the Ancient Demon Country aren’t easy to deal with. Be cautious when you go to the Medicine Pavilion."

Ye Xuan smiled indifferently, "No problem."

Ji Ziqing had just reminded him.

The Ancient Demon Country, the ancient overlord of the Southern Ridge Divine Mountain in Daozhou’s five Great Domains.

Back in the Emperor Immortal Sect incident, the Ancient Demon Country was also involved.

The existence of the Ancient Demon Country can even trace back to the inception of Sword Tomb.

All along, the Ancient Demon Country has remained the undisputed strongest overlord of the Southern Ridge Divine Mountain, consisting mainly of powerful members of the Demon Race.

Yet, people from the Ancient Demon Country rarely appear in East Desolate, unexpectedly coming this time, and reaching a deal with the Medicine Pavilion.

Whether it’s the Medicine Pavilion’s initiative or the intention of the Ancient Demon Country remains unknown.

But none of this matters. Once reaching the Medicine Pavilion, it will become clear.

The Medicine Pavilion is not far from the Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect, just half a day’s journey away.

Upon descending at the Myriad Tools Divine Mountain in East Desolate Island, the Medicine Pavilion had already known Ye Xuan had arrived.

However, the Medicine Pavilion seemingly didn’t make any major moves, rather carrying on with usual affairs.
