Gradually, Ye Xingchen's figure disappeared from the underwater castle.

"This trip is not in vain, right?" the leader of the Golden Qiangyu tribe said with a smile.

Hearing this, Shuang Meng nodded slightly and said, "Yes."

Seeing her change the subject, she said: "Dad, are there really people in this world who are favored by God?"

The person she was referring to was, of course, Ye Xingchen, because she saw that Ye Xingchen went through life and death hardships every time, but he was able to save the day every time, just like the beloved child favored by God.

"The person favored by God does exist, but it's not him. What makes him different from others is his Taoist heart!" said the leader of the Golden Qiangyu tribe.

Shuangmeng asked: "Taoist heart? So his Taoist heart is to be indifferent to life and death, so he will move forward without fear of death?"

Hearing this, the leader of the Golden Qiangyu tribe smiled and said: "Being down on life and death does not mean that he is not afraid of death. It is just that he has more ambition than others. As for how far he can go on this long road of martial arts, it all depends on him.

His creation, and it is enough for us to follow in his footsteps."

Shuangmeng nodded in understanding. She still couldn't understand why Ye Xingchen could turn things around and change adversity over and over again. If ordinary people had gone through this process, they would have perished long ago.

It is obviously impossible to say that Ye Xingchen is not extraordinary at all. After all, he is a reborn person.

…

Time flies.

Five days later, it is now less than five days before the Qianlong Ranking Tournament.

During the two months that Ye Xingchen was at Yangu Peak, no major changes occurred in the Canglan Empire.

If there is a change, maybe in the past month, the five imperial academies of the Canglan Empire have gained 60 to 70% more Transcendent Realm warriors.

Everyone is trying their best before the Qianlong Ranking Tournament.

However, before the arrival of each Qianlong Ranking Tournament, there are routine means of rising.

Some students relied on their family's wealth to break through to the extraordinary realm.

Some students, like Ye Xingchen, practice in various secret realms and places of experience, breaking through to the extraordinary realm.

These students who have made breakthroughs in cultivation are all students who have been at the ninth level of the Transcendent Realm for one to five years. They have been preparing for this moment for several years.

The Qianlong List is not only an opportunity to rise in the Canglan Empire, but also a glory that will be remembered forever.

…

At this moment, inside the Dragon Emperor's Capital Academy.

As soon as Ye Xingchen returned to his mansion, a figure jumped over the wall and jumped in as usual.

Who else could this person be besides Geng Yao?

He is now the head of the Sifeng Hall, and it is not easy to know Ye Xingchen's whereabouts in the Canglan Empire.

"Brother Ye, I expected you to come back in these two days, and it really didn't surprise me, haha." Geng Yao walked around the garden before sitting on a stone bench.

Hearing this, Ye Xingchen smiled and said, "You showed up at the right time. Help me find out who the young master of the Lu family was five years ago."

Geng Yao gave up and said: "There is no need to check. I already know about all the major families in the Canglan Empire."

He changed the subject and said: "Five years ago, there was a civil strife in the Lu family in the Dragon Emperor's capital. The three major clan members competed for the position of clan leader in order to take control of the demon beast legion in the Dragon Emperor's capital."

Having said this, Geng Yao asked: "You want to know the three young masters that have changed in the Lu family in the past five years, right?"

Ye Xingchen nodded and said, "I know a little about Lu Zongyang and the current young master of the Lu family. Then why was the first young master expelled?"

Geng Yao took a deep breath and said: "Are you talking about Lu Zongqiu? This person can be said to be the most talented animal trainer in the Lu family for hundreds of years. However, in order to pursue the so-called extreme way, he was a member of the Goujian tribe.

Expelled from the family, his whereabouts have been unknown for the past five years, and even the Sifeng Hall has no news about him."

Ye Xingchen said truthfully: "He appeared in the secret realm of Yangu Peak and was later killed by me."

Hearing this, Geng Yao was not surprised, but asked curiously: "What does Ye Xingchen want to know?"

Ye Xingchen stopped beating around the bush and said, "I want to know who is Lu Zongqiu's beast taming master?"

In the secret realm of Yangu Peak, when Ye Xingchen beheaded Lu Zongqiu, he discovered that he had completely transformed into a beast. This was not a change that could occur just by drinking beast blood and eating monster meat raw all year round.

This transformation into an animal is like being poisoned by an animal, and it has penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

Geng Yao nodded and said: "Let me help you investigate. In fact, I am also very curious."

In fact, Ye Xingchen thought about whether this might be related to the dark forces.

As we all know, the power controlled by the dark forces is too mysterious and far beyond everyone's imagination.

"By the way, I came here today to tell you some good news." Geng Yao smiled.

Hearing this, Ye Xingchen asked: "What's the good news?"

"According to the news, your name appears in the Dan Pavilion of the Ninth Sanctuary. Maybe someone from the Sanctuary will come to take you to the Sanctuary soon," Geng Yao said.

Nearly half a year ago, Ye Xingchen won the championship in the Canglan Empire Alchemist Competition with his amazing alchemy strength, becoming the most evil alchemy genius in the Canglan Empire in the past thousand years.

It is normal for him to be favored by the alchemy world in the holy realm.

If someone from the Sanctuary really comes to take Ye Xingchen to the Sanctuary to develop his alchemy in the future, it means that Ye Xingchen already has a place to stay in the Sanctuary.

But in this life, he not only practiced alchemy, but also martial arts.

His martial arts does not qualify him to leave the Canglan Empire, so he will probably have a difficult time heading to the Holy Land.

Having a foothold does not mean having a strong backer.

From the perspective of the warriors in the Holy Realm, even if Ye Xingchen is such a monster alchemist in the Canglan Empire, when it comes to the Holy Realm, he is just an average person at best.

Just like when Ye Xingchen came to Canglan Empire from Lingwu Kingdom, everyone just regarded Ye Xingchen as an ordinary warrior from a subordinate country.

…

An hour later, after Ye Xingchen chatted with Geng Yao, Geng Yao hurriedly returned to Sifeng Hall.

He is now the master of Sifeng Hall, and there are a lot of difficult things waiting for him to deal with.

Although he could not follow the righteous path of martial arts, he could still rely on the power of the Four Winds Hall to continue to climb up.

As for what kind of person Geng Yao is, Ye Xingchen knows nothing better. He is a person who follows the law of the jungle and survival of the fittest. He will not swim against the current, but will only go with it.

Maybe when Ye Xingchen returns to glory, he will be there to witness it.

"It's time to go to Dragon City."

Ye Xingchen took a deep breath. When he went to Dragon City, of course he was looking for Yao Qianxue.
