Chapter 182: Confronting the Master, Defying Convention! Immortal World Novel Network!

Watching the master lie down again, Ye Chen wasn’t in a hurry.

He quietly watched the master’s perfect features and innocent sleeping face.

The dimples on her cheeks added a touch of playfulness to the master’s stunning appearance, making it even more mesmerizing.

In the entire cultivation world, only he could see such a master.

His master’s name was Nangong Wan.

In the eyes of outsiders, she was a cold and aloof beauty, with a temperament that acted decisively.

But in Ye Chen’s eyes, she was different.

It was not something outsiders could understand.

Ye Chen quietly admired the master’s youthful appearance.

Even in her dreams, Nangong Wan felt that something was amiss.

Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and she suddenly sat up.

Her beautiful eyes looked at Ye Chen with confusion, and she reached out her jade-like hand to pinch her own tender face.

Then her eyes widened. “You… You’ve broken through to the Deity Transformation Realm?”

Ye Chen smiled faintly. “Yes, I’ve achieved Deity Transformation Realm.”

Upon receiving a definite answer from Ye Chen, astonishment filled Nangong Wan’s fair face. “I’ve only been on Penglai Island for less than two years, right?”

Ye Chen nodded seriously. “To be precise, it’s just been six hundred days!”

Nangong Wan became even more skeptical. “Only six hundred days? And you’ve broken through from Nascent Soul to Deity Transformation?”

Nangong Wan had always known that her disciple was exceptional, but this was beyond belief. She suddenly thought of something and widened her eyes, looking at Ye Chen incredulously. “You… You didn’t empty out the Sacred Land, did you?”

Nangong Wan didn’t know about Ye Chen having a system.

She only knew that Ye Chen had a special physique.

As long as there were enough spirit stones, he could quickly absorb the spiritual energy within them and break through at an unreasonable speed.

Just six hundred days, and he had crossed a major realm.

It was definitely because he had emptied out the Sacred Land!

All the accumulated resources of the Sacred Land had been taken by her disciple.

If the Elder who had been in seclusion knew about this, he would definitely come out and kill Ye Chen on the spot.

Should she run away with Ye Chen?

To Penglai Island or Mingwang Province, perhaps?

Hearing the master’s words, Ye Chen chuckled. “Master, I didn’t empty out the Sacred Land. After you left, I created a new magical tool, the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator, which allows communication over long distances. It sold well and earned me a lot of spirit stones, which enabled me to advance rapidly in cultivation.”

Upon hearing Ye Chen’s explanation, Nangong Wan was stunned. “A magical tool for communication at will?”

Ye Chen took out a silver ring shimmering with starlight. “This is the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator I prepared for you long ago. As long as you wear it, Master, you can contact me anytime, anywhere. This one is specially made for you, using star silver stone for its construction, which complements your complexion perfectly! And it also uses top-grade spatial stones, containing thousands of cubic meters of space inside.”

Saying this, Ye Chen took Nangong Wan’s small hand and removed the storage ring from her finger.

Then, he slowly put on the little communicator he had prepared for her on her ring finger.

Nangong Wan’s pretty face turned slightly red, but she didn’t withdraw her hand, just softly reprimanded, “You rascal!”

Ye Chen didn’t mind.

His master calling him a rascal had almost become a habit.

After that, Ye Chen instructed Nangong Wan on how to use the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator.

After experiencing its communication function, Nangong Wan was amazed.

It was much more convenient than transmission talismans or heart-to-heart jade pendants.

She couldn’t help but play with it fondly.

Ye Chen watched Nangong Wan’s happy expression and smiled. “Master, why did you suddenly come back?”

Nangong Wan’s eyes brightened at the question, and she stood up directly. “That’s because I found a priceless treasure!

“Look…” Saying this, Nangong Wan took out a jade box.

When she opened it, a strange fragrance wafted out, making one feel refreshed.

“Life Extending Pill!” Ye Chen was a little surprised.

Nangong Wan smiled proudly. “That’s right, it’s the Life Extending Pill! It’s worth at least two or three hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones, much more than what you earn in a year with your Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator!”

Seeing the proud look on her master’s face, Ye Chen didn’t say much, just praised her master’s abilities repeatedly.

His master had worked so hard, all for him.

She was just too proud to admit it directly.

As such, he let her be happy for a while first.

Listening to Ye Chen’s praise, Nangong Wan became even happier. “Of course, I’m amazing!”

“This Life Extending Pill, I found it in an ancient ruin. There was even a guy in the middle Deity Transformation Realm who wanted to snatch it from me!

“I fought him with my initial Deity Transformation cultivation and forced him to retreat. If he hadn’t run away fast, I would have directly suppressed him!

“The further you advance in cultivation, the greater the disparity in realms. Those who can cross realms to defeat their enemies in the Deity Transformation Realm are called unparalleled geniuses in cultivation!”

Ye Chen immediately admired her. “Master is indeed such an unparalleled genius!”

Nangong Wan smiled like a crescent moon. “Just average, just average!”

She felt a little lost inside when her disciple, whom she had always protected, surpassed her in cultivation.

She had known that with Ye Chen’s talent, this day would come sooner or later, but it came too fast.

But hearing Ye Chen’s praise made Nangong Wan smile brightly.

Next, Ye Chen listened to his master talk about her experiences on Penglai Island, although she only mentioned the good parts.

However, it was evident that she had also faced many difficulties.

Ye Chen didn’t expose her and waited for her to finish.

Then, he taught her how to use various functions of the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator.

“Wow, there’s everything in this auction house? You can just pay and wait for the treasures to be delivered? That’s incredible!

“There are so many people paying for classes in the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom? How amazing are the lecturers that they can earn tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones in one class?” Nangong Wan’s eyes widened.

Ye Chen waved his hand. “Actually, the income has dropped a lot now, not as much as it used to be! Because low-level cultivators have limited ways to earn spirit stones, so they can’t attend classes every day. So later on, I plan to create some stable jobs for low-level cultivators.”

Nangong Wan felt something was wrong and looked at Ye Chen. “How many spirit stones can this Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator earn?”

Ye Chen didn’t give a specific number, fearing that it would be too much of a shock for Nangong Wan. “A few million top-grade spirit stones a month, maybe?”

Nangong Wan’s already big eyes widened as if they were bronze bells. “A few million a month?

“That… that’s not bad!”

Seeing the master’s shocked and skeptical but still trying to maintain her proud appearance, Ye Chen smiled. “Of course, if we don’t introduce new products later, the income will decrease. There are only a billion cultivators in the Great Yan Province, and the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator is almost sold out. So I plan to open up the market in other major provinces in the future.”

Nangong Wan was speechless…

At this moment, she felt that the Life Extending Pill she had worked so hard to obtain didn’t seem so valuable anymore.

Next, Ye Chen taught Nangong Wan how to use Weibo.

They followed each other.

Nangong Wan looked at the status list in amazement.

“Why is everyone praising the Saint Master of Jade Pond Sacred Land as the number one beauty?”

Ye Chen, upon hearing this, also glanced over.

The results of the first beauty pageant had already been announced.

The Saint Master of Jade Pond Sacred Land was leading by a large margin and became the number one beauty in Great Yan Province.

Looking at the Saint Master of Jade Pond Sacred Land’s selfies, Ye Chen couldn’t help but be amazed.

Her temperament was indeed remarkable, like a goddess, stirring people’s hearts.

Ye Chen told his master about the beauty pageant he organized.

Hearing this, Nangong Wan’s eyes lit up. “Such an interesting event, and you didn’t wait for me to come back before organizing it. If I had participated, that woman, the Saint Master of Jade Pond Sacred Land, would have had some competition!”

Ye Chen nodded repeatedly. “That’s right, in the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. The Saint Master of Jade Pond Sacred Land is far inferior to you, Master!

“We’ll hold another one next year, and Master, you should participate then. You’ll definitely win the title of the number one beauty in Great Yan Province!”

Nangong Wan blushed at the praise.

Nangong Wan glanced at Ye Chen, then continued to browse the Immortal Web Weibo with great interest, feeling extremely curious.

Soon, she scrolled to the top trending topics.

Top trending topic: “Mid-Deity Transformation powerhouse falls on Penglai Island?”

Nangong Wan clicked on it curiously, only to see photos of Xue Jiumo’s corpse.

Her eyes widened instantly.

Xue Jiumo had actually died?

Nangong Wan was well aware of Xue Jiumo’s strength.

With the Azure Falling Bell, he was practically invincible.

And now, he was dead?

It was truly astonishing.

Nangong Wan’s mood brightened, not caring who killed him, but feeling a bit regretful.

She said, “That Azure Falling Bell is exceptionally mysterious, crystal clear. I wonder who took it!”

Ye Chen didn’t expect Xue Jiumo’s demise to make it to the top trending topics.

Hearing this, he looked at Nangong Wan and asked, “Does Master like that Azure Falling Bell?”

Nangong Wan glanced at Ye Chen and said, “I like any Daoist tool!

“It’s all because of you, you rebellious disciple. With your lousy physique, requiring so many spirit stones to break through.

“You’ve made me, a powerful Deity Transformation cultivator, poorer than many Nascent Soul cultivators, not even having a Daoist tool.”

Ye Chen smiled and took out the Azure Falling Bell.

“Since Master likes the Azure Falling Bell, I’ll give it to you. But this Azure Falling Bell is somewhat damaged. I’ll have Elder Wang Changchun repair it later.”

Looking at the Azure Falling Bell, Nangong Wan was once again stunned!

She looked at the Azure Falling Bell in Ye Chen’s hand with an incredulous expression in her eyes, full of doubt about life.

Before Nangong Wan could ask, Ye Chen took a step forward and hugged her. “Master, I killed Xue Jiumo. He dared to injure Master, and I couldn’t rest easy without killing him!

“Master, you’ve suffered a lot for me over the years, and I know!

“From now on, it’s my turn to protect you!”

Being hugged so directly by Ye Chen, Nangong Wan’s pretty face turned red.

Ye Chen’s words made her realize something.

Ye Chen had known the truth a long time ago.

Her previous bragging…

Nangong Wan felt extremely embarrassed.

But feeling Ye Chen’s embrace, she felt a sense of protection that she had never felt before appearing in her heart.

She pushed Ye Chen lightly a few times, but didn’t push him away.

She could only helplessly lean her cheek against Ye Chen’s shoulder.

Closing her eyes, she felt the broad chest.

Nangong Wan smiled.

The boy she had led out of the mountains years ago had grown into a man!
