Supreme Lord of Towers

"The Six Sons of Qingyun have all been eliminated by me; in this Ancient Ruins, there should be no one who can threaten Little Xi and Zitong anymore," Ye Chen thought to himself as he led Ruyi out of the Bronze Palace.

Now, the Six Sons of Qingyun are completely wiped out, and the powerful members of the Ye Clan and Tuoba Family have also perished at Ye Chen's hands.

So, in this Ancient Ruins, there should be no one to harm Ye Xi and Shangguan Zitong.

Ye Chen, who had been on edge, could finally relax a little at this moment.

"Haha, I've finally seen the world outside! From now on, I can live freely," Ruyi could not help but cheer after flying out from the depths of the canyon.

It had been slumbering within the Black Tortoise Egg for one hundred thousand years and had long been stifled.

Therefore, at this moment, its feelings were really beyond words.

"Ruyi, I will now take you to the human cities; there are many fun things there. But you must keep a low profile," Ye Chen said with a grin.

"Yes, master," Ruyi replied joyously, like a two or three-year-old child, appearing incredibly innocent.

"Now, only the legacy of the Water Sect remains unclaimed in this Ancient Ruins.

After returning safely to Little Xi and the others, I will find some time to explore the Water Sect's ruins," a look of anticipation flashed in Ye Chen's eyes.

According to what he knew, there was a chance that Profound Celestial True Water might exist in the Water Sect's ruins.

This True Water is used by the strong members of the Five Elements Immortal Sect specifically to enhance the cultivation of Profound Pill Realm cultivators.

However, they are extremely scarce in number.

So, only the Five Elements Immortal Sect's genius disciples are qualified to use them.

If Ye Chen indeed finds such True Water within the Water Sect's legacy,

then in just a few years, his cultivation might advance to the Peak of Profound Pill Realm.

At that time, he could attempt to break through to the Golden Core Realm at any moment.

Just thinking about it made him feel excited.

"Currently, I am still too weak, far too weak. Even the weakest Nascent Soul Realm cultivators could easily suppress me.

Thus, before leaving this Ancient Ruins, I must improve my cultivation as much as possible; otherwise, how can I protect Little Xi and the others?" A strong sense of crisis arose in Ye Chen's heart.

Although his power had greatly increased compared to when he first entered the Ancient Ruins,

even against someone like Tian Teng, who had just stepped into the Golden Core Realm, he had to rely on the War God Puppet's power to defeat him.

Among the Venerable Golden Core, there are far too many whose strength surpasses Tian Teng.

Especially those late-stage Golden Core entities, whose mana is incredibly overwhelming.

Even if Ye Chen harnessed the War God Puppet's strength, he had no assurance he could defeat them.

Therefore, before leaving this Ancient Ruins, he must find a way to elevate his strength.

Otherwise, the Ye Clan and Ji Race could easily send out a strong Venerable Golden Core to crush him effortlessly.

If he were alone, even when facing dire peril, he could hide within the Human Emperor's Space.

Even if a Nascent Soul expert came, they could not do anything to him.

But he has Ye Xi and Shangguan Zitong to protect, making it impossible for him to escape alone.

"It seems I really need to join the Human King Hall; only this way can I ensure my sister's safety," Ye Chen sighed helplessly.

He had already decided to join the Human King Hall.

Only by becoming a disciple of the Human King Hall could he and his sister be shielded by it.

Although he does not like being controlled and enjoys a free lifestyle,

for the sake of his sister, what does it matter?

His sister is one of the most important people in this world to him.

If he can't even protect his own sister, what is the point of living?

...

"It's been so long, why hasn't Ye Chen returned? Did something really happen to him?" At this moment, in a splendid palace in Wind Shelter City, Dongfang Lin, the old black-robed man, said worriedly.

"Alas! The leader of the Six Sons of Qingyun must be the strongest among them; Ye Chen is likely in deep trouble this time," Wang Gong said in an unsightly manner.

Although Ye Chen's strength was truly formidable enough to slay Chi Feng, who ranked second among the Six Sons of Qingyun.

Yet, there are always taller mountains and stronger men.

The leader of the Six Sons of Qingyun could make a powerful figure like Chi Feng follow him willingly, reflecting his terrifying strength.

Even Ye Chen could very likely fall to them.

"We've already taken Ye Chen's sister and others to a safe place, even if Ye Chen truly met with an accident, that Outer Realm visitor won't be able to find them.

That's the only thing I can do to help Ye Chen," Dongfang Lin sighed.

In fact, he really hoped that Ye Chen could return safely.

After all, prodigies like Ye Chen are exceptionally rare, even within the Human King Hall, there are very few.

If he truly perished in this Ancient Ruins, it would be a tremendous pity.

"Now, we can only resign ourselves to fate," Wang Gong said.

"Elder, Elder." At this moment, a strong figure from the Human King Hall suddenly rushed into the palace, his demeanor extremely excited.

"What is so urgent, is it possible the Outer Realm visitor has come to attack?" Dongfang Lin's expression turned more sullen than a dead man.

If the Outer Realm visitor indeed appeared, that would mean that Ye Chen had already fallen to them.

"Alas! Such a prodigious talent wasted by fate! Remember, even if we die, we must never reveal Ye Xi and their location." Wang Gong's eyes were filled with determination.

"Elder, you have misunderstood; it's Ye Chen, he has returned." The Human King Hall's strong figure smiled.

"What? Ye Chen has returned!"

"Haha! Excellent! He's not dead, it seems he settled the Outer Realm visitor," Dongfang Lin and Wang Gong were initially stunned, then laughed heartily, filled with extreme excitement, as if they'd been injected with Phoenix Blood.

It seems the strength of that Outer Realm visitor was not as formidable as they imagined.

Otherwise, how could Ye Chen have overcome them?

If they were to know that Tian Teng's strength had already broken through to the Golden Core Realm, and he possessed two kinds of Quasi-God bloodlines, who knows what they'd think!

"Let's go and welcome Ye Chen."

"I wonder how he considered; will he join our Human King Hall?" Dongfang Lin and Wang Gong instantly flew outside the palace, their eyes full of deep anticipation.
