507: Pavilion Master Dong Xuanji

"I am your father!"

Yang Lingchen sneered and said, "If I had known you would grow up to be so suicidal, I should have splattered you on the wall before you were even born."

"Pfft…!"

Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.

"Kid, if you have the guts, state your name." Tai Langpu's eyes were extremely cold.

He didn't continue to attack because, judging from that last strike, he knew that his opponent's strength was far above his own. If he continued to act rashly, he would only be the one to suffer.

"Remember this, your father is named Yang Lingchen. If you're not convinced, feel free to challenge me during the Ranking Battle."

Yang Lingchen sneered, and after finishing his sentence, he turned and walked out of Tianxin Restaurant.

Seeing this, Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow quickly followed him.

"Yang Lingchen, Yang Lingchen, you Little Bastard! Just you wait."

Watching Yang Lingchen's retreating back, Tai Langpu's eyes revealed a cold, murderous intent.

"Young Master Tai, are you alright?" Ye Juehen asked softly.

"Slap…!"

Tai Langpu directly slapped Ye Juehen across the face. "Ye Juehen, you motherfucker, are you looking for death?! How dare you scheme against me."

"Young Master Tai, is there some misunderstanding? How would I dare to scheme against you?"

After taking the slap, Ye Juehen's expression became incredibly ugly.

But he still didn't dare to get angry, because the other party was, after all, the Young Hall Master of Tiandu Hall, and his status and position were far beyond what he could compare to.

"Misunderstanding? Are you treating This Young Master like a fool? You knew he was Yang Lingchen, so why didn't you tell This Young Master in advance? You deliberately lured This Young Master here just to use me as a knife, didn't you?"

Tai Langpu said coldly.

At this point, he also realized that Ye Juehen clearly wanted to use him to deal with Yang Lingchen.

"Young Master Tai, I absolutely did not mean to use you as a knife. I was originally planning to tell you, but before I could say anything, you had already attacked," Ye Juehen explained again.

"Regardless of whether you used me as a knife or not, that kid is dead. Daring to snatch a woman from This Young Master—no one can save her."

Tai Langpu said coldly, "But remember this: if there is a next time, don't blame This Young Master for being impolite."

After finishing, Tai Langpu turned around and flicked his sleeves, leaving.

"You idiot, if you have the ability, go find Yang Lingchen! Why the hell are you taking your anger out on me?"

Seeing Tai Langpu walk away, a nameless anger rose in Ye Juehen's heart.

In the Great Zhou Sacred Dynasty, he had always been a top-tier Genius; when had he ever suffered such humiliation?

...

After bidding farewell to Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow, Yang Lingchen returned to Wentian Courtyard.

"Bastard, you finally know to come back?" Su Yuyan pouted, a trace of displeasure showing on her face.

"Sister Yuyan, I was dealing with some matters outside these past two days, and I came back the first moment I finished."

Yang Lingchen smiled slightly and gently pulled Su Yuyan's hand. "What? Only two days apart, and you missed me already!"

"Dealing with matters? You were busy dating Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow, right?" Su Yuyan coquettishly rebuked, her jealousy very obvious on her face.

"Ahem… ahem!"

Yang Lingchen coughed lightly and quickly explained, "That's not it. With a peerless beauty like Sister Yuyan here, how would I have the time to date them?"

"Then what did you go do with them?" Su Yuyan pouted and asked.

"I actually met Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow three years ago. There was a small misunderstanding at the time, but it has since been cleared up."

Yang Lingchen said with a serious face, "They've had some minor health issues lately, so they came to find me together, wanting me to treat them."

"Then did you manage to treat them?"

Hearing Yang Lingchen say this, Su Yuyan's expression softened slightly.

"Of course I treated them; I am a divine doctor, after all!" A confident smile appeared on Yang Lingchen's face.

"Then did they offer their bodies to you as repayment?" Su Yuyan rolled her eyes at Yang Lingchen.

"They did indeed have that thought and even trapped me in the restaurant, insisting on offering themselves to me. Naturally, I didn't agree, so I had to use all my strength to escape," Yang Lingchen said righteously.

"Pfft…!"

"You're too funny! Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow wanted to offer themselves to you, and you refused?" Su Yuyan burst into laughter, "Do you think I believe that?"

"Believe it or not, I don't care." Yang Lingchen shrugged helplessly.

"Who would believe such nonsense? Given the beauty of Snow Heartless and Summer First Snow, if they offered themselves, what man do you think could resist?" Su Yuyan said coquettishly, "Unless you're not capable."

"Sister Yuyan, if you think I'm not capable, why don't you come to my room tonight and test it out?" Yang Lingchen gently hugged Su Yuyan and whispered in her ear.

"Pervert, I won't let you take advantage of me." Su Yuyan said crossly.

"If not me, do you intend to let someone else take advantage of you?"

Yang Lingchen chuckled, then took out some supreme grade Xuanzun Pills and handed them to Su Yuyan, saying:

"Sister Yuyan, take these Medicinal Pills. Strive to raise your cultivation level by another small Realm, and then we will enter the top fifty together."

"The top fifty isn't that easy to reach," Su Yuyan said coquettishly.

"If you don't strive for it, how will you know if you can't? I believe you can definitely do it." Yang Lingchen encouraged her.

After that, the two chatted for a while longer before Yang Lingchen returned to his room.

This time, he planned to continue Cultivating until the Ranking Battle began before coming out of seclusion.

At the same time, the news of Yang Lingchen injuring Tai Langpu at Tianxin Restaurant spread immediately.

In an instant, Yang Lingchen's ranking on the prediction list rose directly to tenth place, becoming the undisputed dark horse on this Ranking Battle's prediction list.

...

Eastern Emperor Pavilion, Pavilion Master's Great Hall.

A woman dressed in purple finery, with a cold and aloof temperament and an aura of superiority, was sitting on the Pavilion Master's throne.

This cold and aloof woman was none other than Dong Xuanji, who had once had a "one-day" encounter with Yang Lingchen.

"Elder Mu, how are the preparations for the Ranking Battle coming along?"

Dong Xuanji's voice was cold and calm, yet it gave people an invisible sense of oppression.

"Reporting to Pavilion Master, the Ranking Battle is ready." Mu Lanling bowed slightly and said.

"In this Ranking Battle, what are the odds of our Eastern Emperor Pavilion winning the champion?" Dong Xuanji asked casually.

"Pavilion Master, it is truly hard to predict the champion of this Ranking Battle. The cultivation levels of the younger generation of the Four Great Super Factions are all on par, and their Combat Power is not much different," Mu Lanling said in a deep voice.

"Are there any promising contestants worth cultivating among the other six top factions?" Dong Xuanji asked.

"The contestants from other factions have average cultivation and strength, but Wentian Palace has produced a Genius. Although this person's cultivation level is only at the fifth layer of the Xuanzun Realm, his Combat Power is shockingly high," Mu Lanling said respectfully.

"Oh!" A flash of surprise crossed Dong Xuanji's face. "Tell me about him."

"This person is named Yang Lingchen, and he possesses an extremely high ability for Cross-Rank Challenge…!"

Speaking up to this point, Mu Lanling stopped and looked at Dong Chenyang, who was to the side.

"Why are you looking at Chenyang?" A trace of confusion appeared on Dong Xuanji's face.

"Pavilion Master, it is like this: a few days ago, Saint Chenyang held a Prodigy Banquet and gathered some geniuses from the ten major factions. Later, due to some reasons, Saint Chenyang and Yang Lingchen had some unpleasantness…!"

Following that, Mu Lanling recounted all of Yang Lingchen's recent deeds.

"The fifth layer of the Xuanzun Realm, and he was actually able to defeat Chenyang? This kid really is a Genius! It seems Wentian Palace is about to rise!" Dong Xuanji murmured.

"Pavilion Master, if this kid grows up, he might very well change the landscape of our Eastern Region. Should we take advantage of the time before he grows up to…!" Mu Lanling made a throat-slitting gesture.

"He is just a Genius who hasn't grown up yet; he is not worth us making a move against him. You may all leave!" Dong Xuanji said in a cold voice, waving her hand.

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

The Elders respectfully acknowledged and then exited the Pavilion Master's Great Hall.
