In the Earth G.o.d Temple, all women who became Spiritual Power Saints would be conferred the t.i.tle of G.o.ddess.
Siming G.o.ddess was the leader of them all. Her status was very high and her authority was strong. She was at the same level as the Heavenly Kings of the other eight departments.
The Fairy was the Earth G.o.d Temple’s G.o.ddess and also one of the Nine Heavenly Maidens. Her fame wasn’t any less than that of Martial Saint Canglan and Saint Lady.
Zhang Ruochen lowered his eyes, thinking hard. Then he smiled. “The imperial court coming to the Yin Yang Sea indeed has something to do with the Earth Heavenly Pavilion.
“The Fairy’s Spiritual Power isn’t any weaker than the Saint Lady. Once she discovers you and I, she’ll definitely try to capture us. With our current cultivation, we’re not her match.”
Huang Yanchen wanted Zhang Ruochen to leave. After all, the three forces underground—the imperial court, Immortal Vampires, and Ancient Dragon Mountain—all viewed Zhang Ruochen as their nemesis. As soon as Zhang Ruochen showed himself, he’d be besieged.
Before so many strong cultivators, even ten Zhang Ruochens would be destroyed.
Zhang Ruochen’s goal for entering Dragon Fire Island was to take the Nanling Dragon Fire.
If he backed off because he feared danger, then he wouldn’t only miss an opportunity. His mindset would also be affected.
“The imperial court, Immortal Vampires, and Ancient Dragon Mountain are filled with strong cultivators,” Zhang Ruochen said. “They also view me as an enemy. However, they’re also enemies of each other. They won’t unite against me. Plus, I also have hidden cards. I won’t be easily toyed with by them.”
After a pause, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes hardened and met with Huang Yanchen’s gaze. “Go and meet up with Blackie. Wait for me to get a beam of Nanling Dragon Fire. Then we’ll leave Dragon Fire Island together.”
“You want to push me away?” Huang Yanchen’s starry blue eyes shone with light. She bit her lip and complained, “You tossed me into the Pluto Sword Tomb and came to the Yin Yang Sea alone. I still haven’t talked to you about that, and now you want to push me away again?”
Zhang Ruochen rarely saw Huang Yanchen act so pitiful. His heart wavered, but his att.i.tude was still unwavering. “It’s very dangerous now. After getting the Nanling Dragon Fire, I can use the Spatial Move to leave at any time. You staying will distract me.”
The pitiful look disappeared. Huang Yanchen lifted her snow-white chin and said a bit proudly, “You look down on me. I have the Heir Stamp. You’ve seen how powerful that is. Am I really as weak as you think I am? Plus, if I hadn’t saved you just then, you probably would have been captured by the imperial court. You’re not as strong as you think. You still need help.”
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t refute it. He just stared at Huang Yanchen’s face with an odd look.
“What are you looking at me for? Am I not correct?” Huang Yanchen glared at him coldly.
“No, I was just thinking that your personality is always changing,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Sometimes, you’re a soft girl in love. Sometimes, a spoiled and unreasonable princess. Other times, you’re like a powerful queen.”
“Really?” Huang Yanchen froze. Seeming to sense something, she quickly lowered her head and grew thoughtful.
Zhang Ruochen was caring. “Tell me truthfully. Did you run into problems in cultivation? Did you improve too quickly, so your mindset isn’t stable and created a demon in your heart?”
Huang Yanchen raised her head. She rolled her eyes and hit Zhang Ruochen’s chest. “Even if there is, it’s not about cultivation, but because you anger me. I don’t care. You want to get the Nanling Dragon Fire, and so do I. I’m not going to leave.”
A crisp voice sounded behind her. “Me too. I want to get Nanling Dragon Fire too.”
Qing Mo walked out of the red lava. She seemed clumsy. Her face was red and she fluttered her lashes. Qing Mo seemed weak, but Zhang Ruochen sensed a very strong aura on her.
“Qing Mo, you entered the Xuanhuang Realm?” Zhang Ruochen was shocked.
Qing Mo pursed her lips like she’d done something secretive and said, “Yeah! I finally broke through.”
Qing Mo could already counter Xuanhuang Realm Saints as an upper-level Saint. Now that she was in the Xuanhuang Realm, just how powerful could she be?
If she utilized her power well, she might be a strong aid. However, seeing how timid Qing Mo was, Zhang Ruochen shook his head. Qing Mo was already in the Xuanhuang Realm and had become a top figure, but she was still so timid. She couldn’t do anything great.
If Zhang Ruochen had her cultivation and abilities, he would have definitely charged forward. He wouldn’t need to hide like this.
Basically, it was still because her cultivation was too low. Even as a mid-level Saint, he could still sweep across.
Actually, it was still because the Sky-swallowing Demonic Dragon and nine Heirs were too close behind. They all knew that not going forward would be going backward. They all worked hard on cultivating.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t have the help of the Universe Spiritual Map and was cultivating the physical body, Martial Way, Spiritual Power, Sword Way, time and s.p.a.ce at the same time. He didn’t have any advantages in terms of speed. It was hard to widen the gap.
“Okay!” Zhang Ruochen said. “You two can stay, but you must listen to me in how to act.”
