Chapter 1756 - 1741: Killing the Chicken to Warn the Monkey

A short absence rekindles the passions of newlyweds, joining together under a red blanket, entwined within the silence, leaving everything unsaid.

As for things to be done, Ye Zhen delegated everything, with people rushing to carry them out, allowing him to steal a half-day of leisure, spending time with his parents and his two beloveds.

The only thing causing Ye Zhen a headache was his mother, Mi Jiangxue’s nagging.

Every day she urged him to have a grandson, and early each morning she would prepare the Primordial Essence Soup with deer antlers, beef tendons, and various Qi-enhancing and virility-strengthening ingredients.

She watched Ye Zhen drink it, then tugged at his younger brother Ye Jin’s ear, amidst Ye Jin’s cries, and soared into the sky with Ye Tiancheng.

Under the pretense of going out to enjoy the scenery, she was really leaving space and time for Ye Zhen and the two women.

At noon, she would return punctually, produce a large pot of tonic like magic, watch Ye Zhen drink it, and then head off to gather herbs.

In the afternoon, she would return with bowls of herbal medicine and a feast, naturally not omitting the large pot of tonic.

After Ye Zhen and the others finished eating, she would again tug Ye Jin’s ear and leave, claiming to attend a banquet at the Imperial Capital of Black Water Empire, not returning until evening.

And, the next morning, she would once again promptly deliver the Three Antler Soup!

At this point, even Feng Qingyue and Luluo couldn’t help but feel embarrassed, nearly unable to bear it.

With the Ye Family’s current resources, all the supplements gathered were aged Old Spiritual Herbs, even the deer antlers came from the Heavenly Level Spirit Beast Three-pointed Spirit Deer, bought along with secret recipes from old physicians.

The effect was so strong that it made Ye Zhen’s nose bleed, causing the two women to exclaim that they couldn’t take it anymore.

Leaving Ye Zhen with barely any chance to chat with his father, Ye Tiancheng.

Ye Zhen understood his mother Mi Jiangxue’s intentions - she was simply eager for grandchildren.

But this matter can’t be rushed.

Ye Zhen had been with Luluo, Feng Qingyue, and even Liao Feibai frequently, yet none of the three showed signs of pregnancy.

Because of this, Ye Zhen secretly sought advice from Shuili Dan King, as skilled alchemists are masters of pharmacology with extensive knowledge.

Shuili Dan King examined both Liao Feibai and Ye Zhen’s bodies and found no issues, concluding that the reason for the lack of pregnancy might be linked to Ye Zhen’s innate talent.

The stronger the cultivation of a martial artist, the harder it is to have a bloodline offspring; some people spend hundreds or even thousands of years striving before succeeding.

Take the Blue-scaled Dragon King, who poured countless efforts into Dragon Prince Ao Zheng.

The reason is that powerful martial artists undergo significant changes in their innate bloodline and physical form during their martial arts journey, leading to difficulty in having offspring.

Currently, Ye Zhen’s cultivation isn’t extremely high, but throughout his cultivation journey, his bloodline talent and physical changes exceed those of most mid to late stage Realm King Realm experts.

Ye Zhen’s innate bloodline initially had only three and a half veins, but now it has risen to seven veins - a substantial change.

His physical strength rivals that of a High Grade Suppressing Device, and his divine soul had long been forged into a Primordial Spirit.

These factors make having offspring difficult, but once achieved, the talent of the child would undoubtedly be exceptional.

According to Shuili Dan King, Ye Zhen shouldn’t rush his efforts for offspring; keep striving, and eventually, it will happen.

But Ye Zhen dared not share this with his mother Mi Jiangxue; otherwise, she’d be worried to death.

Fortunately, after four or five days, Mi Jiangxue felt the effects were sufficient and wasn’t as urgent anymore, allowing Ye Zhen to relax.

He finally found an opportunity to chat with his father and gain insights into the situation on True Profound Continent.

According to his father Ye Tiancheng’s account, the thirty-two dukes participating in the alliance meetings generally obeyed, but human nature tends towards change, and minor actions still occurred.

Not only did the thirty-two dukes start forming factions, but also the largest factions, Qiyun Sect and Sun and Moon Divine Sect, developed some disputes.

Ye Zhen wasn’t concerned about these.

For such a vast continent, some disputes are inevitable.

As long as it doesn’t affect Ye Zhen’s interests, he plans to ignore it.

But if anyone dares to cause trouble, Ye Zhen won’t hesitate to show them the meaning of power.

On the seventh day, after Liao Feibai personally prepared a meal for the parents-in-law, they were ready to leave.

During the farewell, Luluo and Feng Qingyue were reluctant to part.

Ye Zhen understood their feelings, but he ultimately decided not to bring them along.

With an impending battle, Ye Zhen feared he couldn’t protect them and didn’t want them to get injured or face life-threatening danger, a situation he never wanted to witness.

To bring them along required Liao Feibai to perfect her Profound Yin Nine Tribulations Sword Formation; then, even if Ye Zhen wasn’t present, Liao Feibai could ensure their safety.

Therefore, Ye Zhen needed some more time.

Half a day later, Ye Zhen led the Qiyun Sect members carefully selected from each Outer Peak and Martial Arts Institute, comprising one hundred and eight Sword Attendants aged between twenty and sixteen, along with two hundred Divine Envoy Attendants from the Southern Barbarian Tribe, riding the Cloud Winged Tiger King, towards the site of the Ancient Teleportation Formation at the Outer Domain Dead Sea.

When nearing the sea surface where the Ancient Teleportation Formation was located, Ye Zhen sensed a change, slowly turning around, and unleashed a vast Divine Sense like mercury flooding the terrain in all directions.

Moments later, Ye Zhen’s eyes gleamed with fierce light, staring into a certain direction in the void, sternly shouting, "Come out!"

With the shout, where Ye Zhen’s gaze fell, the void suddenly trembled, and a gray-clad elder let out a miserable cry and fell from the void, bleeding from his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose, showing signs of severe divine soul damage.

"Who are you?"

Ye Zhen was slightly puzzled looking at the gray-clad elder, finding him familiar yet unable to recall his name.

The gray-clad elder was flustered at this moment, hurriedly wiped his blood, and promptly rose, "Forgive me, Heavenly King, I was merely intrigued by such an Exotic Beast and decided to follow it momentarily, not expecting to disturb the Heavenly King!"

Ye Zhen’s gaze grew cold as he looked at the apologizing gray-clad elder, "You take the Heavenly King as a fool?"

"If not prepared, how could the Heavenly King be tracked by you!"

As he spoke, Ye Zhen clenched his fingers into a sharp point, an invisible net enveloping the gray-clad elder.

The gray-clad elder’s face turned pale, showing an intention to escape, but in front of Ye Zhen, he had no chance of fleeing.

Two hours later, Ye Zhen delivered the captured gray-clad elder to the Territory Suppressing Heavenly King Palace, where the current Sun and Moon Divine Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong merely glanced at him, then his expression changed dramatically.

"Isn’t this the Supreme Elder Bian Lu of Flowing Void Gate? How, did he track the Heavenly King?"

"The Supreme Elder Bian Lu of Flowing Void Gate?"

Ye Zhen’s lips curled into a cold smile, "Your Flowing Void Gate really dares! Sect Leader Jian, immediately lead the Law Enforcement Team to annihilate Flowing Void Gate.

If the Sect Leader, elders, and hall masters of Flowing Void Gate dare to resist, cut them down decisively; as for the others, interrogate them and let Sect Leader Jian handle accordingly..."

Before Ye Zhen even finished speaking, the Supreme Elder Bian Lu of Flowing Void Gate cried out miserably, "Heavenly King Ye, it’s all my decision alone, unrelated to Flowing Void Gate!

It was truly my personal decision, I plead for Heavenly King’s mercy...."

"Too late!"

Ye Zhen coldly glanced at Bian Lu, signing the command.

Ye Zhen understood Bian Lu’s intentions all too well; it was nothing more than having noticed Ye Zhen left True Profound Continent, rapidly advanced, then returned to unify True Profound Continent, attempting to track Ye Zhen and learn the route off True Profound Continent.

Within True Profound Continent, many sects harbored such ideas, but few dared to act on them.

Ye Zhen didn’t expect that a martial artist of the second stage of Dao Entrance Realm could track him.

Since it’s done, it serves as a perfect demonstration to deter others!
