Chapter 2612: Chapter 2586: Wish Returning Pond (Five Updates)
He quickly took three steps at a time, hurrying to Ye Chen’s front, cupping his hands in apology: “Mr. Ye, I have caused great offense, please forgive me.”
After speaking, he took out a gold jade token engraved with the emblem of the restaurant and handed it to Ye Chen: “This is an apology. With this token, you can dine free of charge at any level.”
Having said that, Elder Zhou glanced at Qing Qiuyun and swiftly left with everyone else.
Only then did Ye Chen’s gaze settle on Qing Qiuyun.
It seemed that Qing Qiuyun had an extremely special identity.
But why would she heal people for the sake of an Absolute Weapon?
Qing Qiuyun seemed to see through Ye Chen’s thoughts: “Master, everyone has their own interests, and medicine happens to be mine.”
“Coincidentally, master’s achievements in medicine are extraordinary.”
“From now on, master will become my Qing Qiuyun’s interest.”
Ye Chen: “…”
“I haven’t agreed to take you as a disciple.”
After speaking, Ye Chen threw out an ancient book.
It recorded a set of acupuncture techniques discarded by Elder Cang.
But for the Divine Kingdom, it was considered a treasure.
“I don’t owe you this favor anymore.”
Having said this, Ye Chen turned around and left.
Qing Qiuyun did not follow him. She excitedly hugged the ancient book Ye Chen threw out.
The waves upon her chest shook excitedly.
Her eyes fixated on Ye Chen’s retreating figure as she sketched a smile: “Master, you will change your mind.”
…
At the same time, Lin Yaqin also arrived in Divine Origin City. After Ye Chen learned about the God Festival, he also sent out some invitations to the Shenxuan Sect.
Originally, Lin Yaqin had no interest in such festivities; her heart was always set on cultivation training!
However, after spending some relaxed days with Ye Chen last time, she found that sometimes, taking a break could actually be more beneficial to cultivation!
Ye Chen also taught her that martial arts require a balance between work and rest.
Therefore, she came to Divine Origin City this time, since every person from the Divine Kingdom was quite curious about the God Festival.
Now, Lin Yaqin, having gained the care of Long Chen and with her own master as the sect master of the Shenxuan Sect, received substantial support in Martial Cultivation Resources, and her strength improved by leaps and bounds.
She has now impressively broken through to the Great Void realm!
Combining that with her Innate Killing Aura, she has the capability to confront a typical martial artist at the first-level Supreme Emperor realm!
Walking down the street, Lin Yaqin saw countless snack stalls, spreading delicious aromas. The God Festival, organized by the Blood Alliance leader, allowed the food from these snack stalls to be enjoyed for free.
Just after strolling down one street, Lin Yaqin’s hands were already full of curious and exotic snacks.
Xu Mengqiu was following by Lin Yaqin’s side, smiling and shaking her head slightly; her level of cultivation had already made some breakthroughs.
Before, she had not realized that her disciple was actually a foodie?
However, comparing the current Lin Yaqin with the one in the past, the current Lin Yaqin felt much better to her.
Who would want their child’s heart to be filled with killing intent?
Suddenly, Xu Mengqiu smiled to Lin Yaqin: “Ya Qin, do you know that during the God Festival there is a place in Divine Origin City called the Wish Returning Pond that will be open? Would you like to go and see it?”
Lin Yaqin blinked her eyes and asked, “Wish Returning Pond?”
Xu Mengqiu said, “It is said that in ancient times, during the Human-Demon War, there was a couple who lost each other amidst the battle. The woman was suppressed under the waters of a pond, yearning day and night to be reunited with her Daoist couple. Tens of thousands of years passed, yet they still hadn’t met.
Legend has it that tens of thousands of years of prayers eventually moved the Martial Arts Law, imbuing that pond with divinity. In the mysterious unknown, it drew her Daoist couple to her…”
Xu Mengqiu smiled faintly, “That’s the origin of the Wish Returning Pond. Ever since then, on every God Festival, couples come to the pond to make a wish. They hope to be blessed by divine power, that they may never part…”
Upon hearing this, an image of a man arose in Lin Yaqin’s mind, causing her cheeks to redden slightly, but still she nodded and said, “Master, let’s go take a look at the Wish Returning Pond…”
Even if Lin Yaqin was as cold as frost, she was still a woman by nature, and women generally are interested in such rituals.
Without delay, the two of them headed in the direction of the Wish Returning Pond.
Outside the Wish Returning Pond, buildings had already been erected, which looked magnificent. Inside the gate, there was a Clear Pond with faint spiritual light twinkling in the water. Many men and women stood by the pondside, hands clasped together, praying with smiles on their faces.
Lin Yaqin also walked to the edge of the pond, scooped up a handful of water, closed her beautiful eyes, and made a wish to the water.
But at this moment, many people around the Wish Returning Pond were taken aback.
A miraculous scene unfolded before their eyes.
The spiritual light within the Wish Returning Pond suddenly flourished, swirling around Lin Yaqin, who had her eyes gently closed, praying sincerely. It adorned her such that she resembled a dream goddess that had descended from Above Nine Heavens!
Many men, upon seeing this sight, were stunned and entranced! Completely dazzled!
Beautiful!
Too beautiful!
Is she even a woman of this mortal realm?
For the first time, they realized that beauty possessed such tremendous power.
Even many of the men, driven by impulse, left their female companions aside, wanting to approach Lin Yaqin!
They could not resist!
At this moment, Lin Yaqin opened her eyes. As her eyes opened, the brilliance dissipated, and her complexion returned to its usual icy demeanor.
However, in her heart, a flicker of hope had ignited.
Ye Chen, would he come to this Divine Origin City?
Just as she turned around, a young man stepped in front of her.
Lin Yaqin slightly raised her head. Standing before her was a young man in a red robe embellished with dragon patterns, handsome and with an imposing presence.
The young man gave Lin Yaqin a slight smile and said, “I am Hua Chenxin from Dragon Suppressing Palace. May I have the honor to know the young lady’s name?”
The instant they saw this man, the restlessness around the Wish Returning Pond suddenly quieted down!
The men who had just taken a few steps forward halted abruptly, cold sweat sliding down their foreheads as they looked at Hua Chenxin, their voices trembling, “Hua Chenxin from Dragon Suppressing Palace?”
Many people also started to murmur among themselves.
“The top talent of the Dragon Suppressing Palace?”
“It’s said that the dragon’s blood within him is extremely dense, recognized as a monstrous prodigy of the Divine Kingdom…”
“I have also heard that his nickname within the palace is the Blood Sea Divine Dragon. He is supremely powerful, yet very tyrannical. Slightly annoyed, he would resort to killing, and countless talents have perished by his hand!
It’s as if a divine dragon has emerged from a sea of blood!”
“I’ve heard that what Hua Chenxin dislikes most is having someone compete with him for a woman…”
In an instant, not a single person dared to entertain the thought of stepping forward any longer…
