Chapter 527: Little Girl, Come, Smile for the Patriarch!
The Patriarch of h.e.l.l had taught the three immortals a lesson. Ye Chen was happy to see that.
In the future, if he was not around, the patriarch would need to come into contact with Laolinzi. Whenever these immortals in Laolinzi were being disobedient, it was better to let the patriarch take them down a notch.
Under the Black Bear King’s lead, Ye Chen and the Patriarch of h.e.l.l walked into the forest. Laolinzi was no different from usual. Even the bamboo forest outside was the same.
This time, Ye Chen did not have to lift a finger. The patriarch destroyed the formation effortlessly. When the three immortals saw this, they looked at the Patriarch of h.e.l.l with even more fear.
The purple bamboo forest’s array formation was created by Big Sister. Not to mention outsiders, even if they wanted to enter, they would need Big Sister’s permission. If they forced their way in, they would only trigger the array formation and be trapped inside.
“A few country b.u.mpkins? Look at the look in your eyes. I’ve only shown very little of my capability and you’re already scared.” The patriarch’s face was filled with disdain.
In reality, if he were to compete with Ye Chen, Ye Chen’s cultivation speed surpa.s.sed his, and the latter’s ability was more terrifying than his. He had been bullied by Ye Chen for a long time. In his heart, he wondered if Ye Chen was a Tribulation Stage old monster from his previous life.
Thus, in front of the three immortals, he felt like he had found his long-lost confidence again!
“Country b.u.mpkin?”
Black Bear King and the other two were furious, but they were no match for the Patriarch, so they could only remain silent.
In reality, they were all native demons of Earth. Perhaps they could be called kings, but in the eyes of the patriarch, they were indeed nothing more than country b.u.mpkins.
They were speechless.
The three immortals stopped after they walked out of the purple bamboo forest. Black Bear King said to Ye Chen respectfully, “Master, Big Sister is inside. We’re not going in!”
Then, they turned around and left.
“Look at how cunning they are. Their elder sister is probably not any better.” The Patriarch of h.e.l.l spat and chuckled.
“You’re no better than them!”
Ye Chen ignored him and walked straight to the peach blossom forest in the distance.
Even though it was night, the peach blossom forest was still as bright as day. When he looked up, he saw a full moon hanging low in the sky, as if it was standing on a distant peak.
A zither sound was heard coming from the peach blossom forest.
The music was low and mellow.
“d.a.m.n it, what’s that sound?”
The Patriarch of h.e.l.l p.r.i.c.ked up his ears and listened. Then, he hummed along. “I’m a fox that has cultivated for a thousand years. I’ve cultivated for a thousand years, and I’ve been lonely for a thousand years…”
Ye Chen looked at him in surprise. He was surprised that the Patriarch had heard of the White Fox!
“F*ck, it’s nice to listen to, but it reminds me of my own sad story. What lousy song is this? I don’t want to listen to it!”
The Patriarch of h.e.l.l wiped his tears, turned into a black shadow, and shot into the peach blossom forest. “I’d like to see who’s playing tricks in front of me.”
The next moment, a tremor came from the peach blossom forest.
“Who?”
“Yo, I didn’t expect to see such a beautiful lady here. Come, smile for me!”
“Pervert!”
“…”
Boom!
As he screamed, the patriarch flew out on the spot. Ye Chen extended his arm and caught him.
“d.a.m.n it, this little girl’s temper is too bad!”
“But she’s quite strong!”
The patriarch grimaced in pain!
Ye Chen was speechless. Even at this point, the patriarch could not change his lecherous nature.
Inside was a fox demon whose strength was equivalent to a Foundation Building Stage cultivator. If you dared to molest her, you would be courting death.
Right at this moment, the lush peach blossom forest changed, and a path opened up. A stone pavilion came into view, and a woman sat upright in it.
The lady looked like she was 18 years old. She was dressed in ancient clothing and was dressed in plain white. However, she was holding her zither with both hands at that moment. She looked coldly at Ye Chen and the rest. To be exact, she was looking at the Patriarch of h.e.l.l.
She was Hu Meiling whom Ye Chen had met last time.
She was Laolinzi Forest’s Big Sister!
“Fellow Hu, how have you been?”
Ye Chen chuckled softly. He leaped over a few hundred feet and landed in the stone pavilion. The Patriarch of h.e.l.l followed after him. However, he could not stop looking at Hu Meiling with his l.u.s.tful eyes.
“So it’s Mr. Ye!”
Hu Meiling’s cold face softened a little before she bowed and said in a deep voice, “Mr. Ye came late at night to tease me with this lecher?”
After saying that, she looked at the Patriarch of h.e.l.l coldly again.
“Fellow Hu, you’ve misunderstood!”
Ye Chen shook his head lightly and said, “This is a friend of mine. He’s always been unreasonable. That’s why he offended you. I’ll make sure he apologizes to you.”
“Little lady… Oh no, Fellow Hu, Fellow Ye is telling the truth. I didn’t mean it earlier.” The Patriarch of h.e.l.l smiled and cupped his fists.
Hu Meiling finally calmed down. She pinched her fingers lightly and two stone stools flew over from afar and landed next to Ye Chen and the Patriarch of h.e.l.l. Two cups made of bamboo appeared on the stone table.
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, please take a seat. There’s no smoke or fire in the mountains. I can only serve you some spring water.”
The Patriarch of h.e.l.l noticed the shackles on Hu Meiling’s feet and the chains that ran through the entire stone pavilion after Ye Chen sat down. He could not help but ask in surprise, “Fellow Hu, who’s the one who’s holding the shackles on you?”
“May I ask why Mr. Ye is visiting so late at night?” Hu Meiling did not answer the patriarch. Instead, she turned to look at Ye Chen.
After Ye Chen explained why he was looking for the geographical meridian, she said without answering his question, “May I ask what you’re looking for here for, Mr. Ye?”
“This friend of mine needs to cultivate here!”
Ye Chen did not hide it. After all, the patriarch would have to stay if Laolinzi really had the geographical veins that he was seeking. Subsequently, he said, “Don’t worry, Fellow Hu. This can be my second promise to you.”
At the same time, the Patriarch of h.e.l.l was also worried.
Hu Meiling was silent for a few seconds before she suddenly shook her head and said, “Mr. Ye, to be honest, Laolinzi forest has a geographical vein that you need. However, this place is supposed to be a secret. I’m afraid I can’t agree to it.”
“Really?”
The Patriarch of h.e.l.l was ecstatic when he heard the geographical vein was here. He did not have much hope on this trip, so he did not expect to actually find what he was looking for.
Ye Chen took a good look at her and said slowly, “I wonder what your request is, Fellow Hu. Please tell me!”
He was equally surprised.
“The reason why I don’t agree is because this place is a dead end!”
Hu Meiling shook her head slightly. Her voice was like a trickle of water as she said, “This place is a lightning pool. It was specially used by our ancestors to cross the Heaven Gate. The Heaven Gate will naturally send down lightning tribulations!”
“Therefore, over the thousands of years, more and more lightning dissipated, and a pool of lightning was gradually formed. Normal people would die on the spot if they got within a hundred feet of it!”
“Even I can only get within fifty feet of it!”
At this point, a trace of fear appeared on her face. “If the lightning pool erupts, it will be a calamity for Laolinzi. Therefore, for the sake of your safety, I cannot agree!”
“Lightning pool?”
The Patriarch of h.e.l.l was delighted instead of shocked. “Fellow Ye, according to what she said, this place is a Heavenly Spirit Geographical Vein. If I break through inside and get baptized in the lightning pool, I might be able to forge my soul and form a lightning avatar!”
Ye Chen lifted his head and looked at Hu Meiling. “Fellow Hu, you can rest a.s.sured of our safety. Since we dared to come, we are well prepared. Of course, I can promise that I’ll suppress the lightning pool and not let it explode.”
He paused for a moment before continuing, “I can also help you, the Immortal of the Northeast, resolve 500 years of criticism. From now on, all of you can pa.s.s through the Shanhaiguan without any obstructions!”
