Boom!
Thunder flashed, and the clouds parted.
Dragon roars echoed through heaven and earth, as nine colossal white jade Dragons, vast as mountains, blotted out the sky, their Aura soaring to the heavens.
Behind them, they pulled a magnificent chariot, which upon closer inspection, resembled a giant palace speeding through the air, like a deity descending from the clouds.
Just this display of power was enough to shock anyone.
Inside the chariot.
"Your Highness, This Divine Son, Ye Bufan's background has been investigated... His birth mother harbored a grudge against a member of our Jiang Clan over a decade ago and was exiled to forced labor. She is still suffering in the mines. Should we eliminate her directly?"
"Send her here and prepare a grand gift for Ye Bufan."
Jiang Ye listened to the report, a meaningful smile gracing his face.
At this moment, he looked relaxed, leaning on the edge of the bed with his knees propped up.
Beside him were two stunning beauties.
Hong Yan and Qing Xuan.
They were personally selected and trained by Su Hongye in their youth, serving as trusted confidantes and Dual Cultivation maids prepared specifically for him.
Their Cultivation talent was also impressive; in less than a century, they had already reached the God-King Realm.
Qing Xuan wore a long green dress, her face serene and exquisitely beautiful, her figure tall and slender as a willow, her long legs as graceful as a mountain stream; Hong Yan's figure was enchanting, her temperament fiery and passionate, exuding an innate allure, her subtle charm like a blazing flame.
The three had only known each other for a month, but their time together had been extremely "pleasant."
The two women were initially a bit reserved, mainly because they had read ancient texts and heard various anecdotes that portrayed Jiang Ye, This Divine Son, as incredibly profligate and unpredictable in temperament.
He was sometimes gentle and refined, and at other times overbearing and cruel.
Sometimes, he even enjoyed pulling off some bizarre and unimaginable stunts.
However, after a period of time, they gradually discovered that.
In front of those close to him, Jiang Ye's personality was actually quite easygoing, not as unbearable as rumors suggested.
Hong Yan and Qing Xuan had known since childhood that they would one day belong to This Divine Son, so they didn't have much resistance. Moreover, Jiang Ye was tall and slender, with a face as handsome as a demon, even more striking than a woman's.
Few women could resist such a celestial-like man.
In these past few days, the three had done everything there was to do.
Jiang Ye was not a hypocrite like Liu Xiahui, pretending to be pure; he had never mistreated his 'second brother' since childhood.
At this moment.
Qing Xuan knelt behind Jiang Ye, massaging him, while Hong Yan peeled immortal fruits and fed them to him.
They were truly enjoying themselves.
"Your Highness, This Divine Son, is so handsome! Hong Yan will be your number one fan from now on~ I want a hug!"
Hong Yan was straightforward and spoke and acted without reservation.
Behind her, Qing Xuan's expression tightened, and she immediately chided, "Hong Yan! Watch your words and actions!"
Hong Yan made a face and rolled her eyes at her.
Jiang Ye smiled gently and said, "It's fine. From now on, you are both This Divine Son's women. It's good to relax."
He didn't think there was any problem with this; he didn't care about the slight difference in status.
His requirements for his women were very simple.
Loyalty!
Loyalty!
And it's still loyalty!
Important things are said three times.
Being sensible, not engaging in palace intrigue, and being a little spoiled was fine.
"Your Highness, This Divine Son, this girl's temperament is erratic. You should not indulge her too much."
"Hmph~ Your Highness, This Divine Son, look, she's bullying me~"
Jiang Ye's expression was indifferent, but suddenly, the corners of his mouth curved slightly. He got up and embraced the two beauties, one on each side, and laughed, "I observe that your faces are unnatural. You must have done something wrong and feel guilty. Only by lying down can you be relieved! Do you agree?"
Hong Yan recalled the experiences of the past few days.
Having tasted it for the first time.
She savored the experience.
Not only had she unlocked multiple positions, but she had also learned many special terms.
She narrowed her charming eyes, feigning an expression of "not understanding," and giggled, "Indeed!"
Qing Xuan's face flushed, and she glared fiercely at the other woman.
For a time, a beautiful moan echoed within the room... Two days later, Taiyan Holy Land.
Below the mountain city.
Two figures slowly approached, one old and one young.
The old Daoist wore a dark Daoist robe, his hair white, his brows showing a hint of vicissitude, giving him the air of an enlightened Master.
The young man's face was somewhat delicate, his Aura compelling, his temperament extraordinary.
The newcomer was none other than Ye Bufan.
He gazed at the towering mountain range ahead, an uncontrollable emotion swelling in his heart—that was the most humiliating place in his life.
Recalling the past.
In his youth, the Ye Family and the Taiyan Holy Land were originally Cultivation powers of equal renown. The two families had arranged a childhood engagement, which should have been a good start for a marital alliance.
When Ye Bufan was a few months old.
The Ye Family encountered a foreigner, whose origin was unknown, only that his surname was Jiang.
According to Family rumors, that foreigner had taken a fancy to a beautiful woman within the Family at the time, directly forced his way into the Ye Family's territory, and abducted her. How could the Ye Family, a prominent clan, endure such a great humiliation?
So... the strong cultivators of the clan all mobilized, but they were no match for the foreigner. They could only watch helplessly as the beautiful woman was taken away.
From then on, Ye Bufan lost his mother.
After this battle.
All the strong cultivators within the Ye Family died, causing them to fall directly from a first-rate power in the Barren Mountain Realm to a third-rate power, never to regain their former glory.
Although the Ye Family had declined, due to the childhood engagement, Yun Yaman and Ye Bufan would occasionally meet once or twice.
Their relationship was not very close; it was only because Ye Bufan showed outstanding talent at the time and was appreciated by Yun He Tai, who intended to bring the two together and often invited him to be a guest at the Taiyan Holy Land.
By the time Ye Bufan was twelve, his Cultivation suddenly regressed instead of advancing.
He faded into obscurity... When Ye Bufan was sixteen, he brought a marriage contract to the Taiyan Holy Land.
The result... was endless ridicule and mockery, calling him a good-for-nothing and mocking him for a toad wanting to eat swan meat.
Ye Bufan, driven by his pride, immediately shouted:
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully a young man for being poor!"
However, he did not annul the engagement with Yun Yaman... She was his white moonlight!
At the same time, he declared that he would make a three-year agreement with her!
Yun He Tai, influenced by the Protagonist of Destiny's Aura, immediately announced.
"If you can defeat Yaman in three years, I will marry her to you!"
From that moment on, Ye Bufan embarked on his own path of Cultivation.
At the same time, he secretly vowed to wash away the humiliation of that day!
"Finally, I'm back!"
Ye Bufan thought to himself.
"Everyone I've met on this journey has been a fence-sitter! A snob!"
"Except for my Master, and my Yaman~ On the day of the annulment, she was the only one who didn't criticize me. She must have feelings for me in her heart, but the situation at the time was pressing, that damn Yun He Tai!"
"This time, I will let the Taiyan Holy Land know that I am no longer who I was!"
Ye Bufan's heart was full of anticipation, and his steps grew more urgent as he walked towards the towering mountain range.
The old Daoist beside him looked at him and slowly said, "Disciple, the Dao of Cultivation is like climbing high, accumulating step by step. One must have the momentum to break through obstacles, but also a steady pace. Never be impatient."
The speaker was none other than the Sect Master of Kaoshan Sect, Li Kaobei!
Upon hearing this, Ye Bufan quickly calmed his emotions and said, "I will follow Master's teachings, disciple understands!"
Li Kaobei nodded in satisfaction, secretly pleased.
A teachable child indeed!
"Hmm, once you wash away your humiliation today, your Cultivation will surely advance to another level!"
