"Master!"

"What... what did you just say?"

"This person... this person is at least above the Heavenly Origin Realm?"

"That's... impossible!"

"Our Lieyang City is just a small city,"

"How could it attract a Great Power of the Heavenly Origin Realm here?"

In the early stages of cultivation, there are six levels:

Body Refinement Realm, Innate Realm, Foundation Establishment Realm, Spiritual Core Realm, Spiritual Infant Realm, and Heavenly Origin Realm!

Lieyang City is just a small place, truly remote beyond measure,

There are no powerful experts here.

Among the Three Great Clans residing in Lieyang City, even the Ancestor-level figures are only at the Foundation Establishment stage,

The Heavenly Origin Realm is a Great Power Realm that Ye Tian doesn't even dare to dream of,

It's known that those who reach this realm are considered "invincible" even across the entire Qingming Province!

So hearing his master say that Chen Lie is at least at the Heavenly Origin Realm,

Really scared Ye Tian!

Inside the Dark Green Jade Pendant, Yan Ji naturally sensed Ye Tian's shock,

The next second, she began to transmit her voice again:

"I also cannot understand why a Great Power of the Heavenly Origin Realm would come to Lieyang City,"

"But Tian'er, you can trust me, I definitely wouldn't be mistaken about this,"

"Although the other party deliberately concealed their aura, the strength of their soul cannot be hidden!"

"Why did your body become immobile just because the other party glanced at you?"

"It's not that they used any technique on you,"

"It's because your soul is naturally sensitive, able to vaguely sense their strength, and instinctively felt fear, which temporarily intimidated you!"

".........."

Hearing his master's explanation, Ye Tian finally understood why he felt a chill and broke out in cold sweat just from a glance,

He had thought the other party used some technique on him,

But now it seems, it's just because the other party is too powerful,

Causing him to naturally feel fear!

"Master... if the other party really is a Great Power of the Heavenly Origin Realm, why are they getting close to Qingzhu... could there be some ulterior motive?"

"I don't know... so my advice is, before figuring out their purpose, Tian'er, you better not act rashly, lest you provoke them!"

Hearing this, Ye Tian didn't know what to say,

But at the same time, he became even more wary of Chen Lie!

"Young Master Chen... the tofu pudding is ready!"

"Please eat it while it's hot!"

While Ye Tian was staring intently at Chen Lie,

Nie Qingzhu had already prepared a serving of tofu pudding and eagerly placed it in front of Chen Lie,

"Thank you, Miss Qingzhu!"

Seeing Chen Lie seriously tasting the tofu pudding she made, occasionally offering praise,

Nie Qingzhu's smile became even brighter,

At the same time, a slight blush quietly appeared on her neck!

Seeing Nie Qingzhu chatting sweetly with "Young Master Chen," occasionally blushing,

For some reason, an inexplicable irritation suddenly rose in Ye Tian's heart,

At this moment, he completely forgot his master's earlier warning,

Unable to help himself, he called out to Nie Qingzhu with a sullen face:

"Sister Qingzhu... can you come over for a moment?"

"I have something to tell you!"

"Huh? Brother Ye Tian?"

Seeing Ye Tian calling her over, Nie Qingzhu was momentarily stunned, then apologized to Chen Lie:

"Young Master Chen... please enjoy your meal, I'll see what Brother Ye Tian wants!"

Chen Lie nodded with a smile:

"Go ahead!"

"No need to stay here just to entertain me, you should also take care of the other guests!"

Other guests?

Was he referring to me?

Ye Tian felt a bit displeased, but said nothing more,

Until Nie Qingzhu came over, Ye Tian led her to a slightly distant corner,

The next second, Ye Tian lowered his voice and spoke directly:

"Sister Qingzhu... do you know who this Young Master Chen really is?"

Although she didn't know why Brother Ye Tian was asking this, Nie Qingzhu nodded:

"I know, Young Master Chen is a traveler visiting Lieyang City!"

"Why are you suddenly curious about Young Master Chen, Brother Ye Tian?"

Ye Tian didn't beat around the bush, continuing to lower his voice:

"Sister Qingzhu, I think you should be cautious of this Young Master Chen!"

"Huh? Cautious? Why?"

"Because I feel he's very dangerous, his cultivation is very high, definitely not an ordinary person. Someone of his level wouldn't come to Lieyang City without a reason, I'm worried he has ulterior motives!"

"........"

Ulterior motives?

Who knows if Nie Qingzhu took these words to heart,

The next second, she blinked her beautiful eyes curiously:

"Brother Ye Tian, are you saying Young Master Chen is a powerful cultivator?"

"Then who's stronger, him or you?"

Uh...

Who's stronger?

Even if I were to break my bones, I wouldn't be a fraction of his strength,

I'm only at the peak of the Body Refinement Realm, how can I compare to a Soul Transformation Realm cultivator?

Just as Ye Tian was at a loss for words from Nie Qingzhu's question,

Nie Qingzhu seemed to realize something and quickly apologized:

"I'm sorry, Brother Ye Tian!"

"I shouldn't have asked you that question!"

"I didn't mean to belittle you in any way!"

That question was indeed a casual one from Nie Qingzhu,

But she regretted it immediately after asking,

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawℝead.com ].

Who in Lieyang City doesn't know that Brother Ye Tian's cultivation has been stagnant for years?

Afraid of hurting Ye Tian's pride, Nie Qingzhu quickly apologized,

But the next second, Ye Tian smiled and spoke:

"Sister Qingzhu... no need to apologize!"

"I know you didn't mean it,"

"Don't worry about it, actually, I came today not just to eat the tofu pudding you and Grandpa Nie made, but also to share some good news with you!"

Good news?

Nie Qingzhu looked at Ye Tian curiously:

"What good news?"

"That is, the problem with my body has been completely resolved, and I can cultivate normally like others now!"

What?

Brother Ye Tian can cultivate normally now?

Nie Qingzhu was genuinely happy for Ye Tian, and upon hearing this, she immediately spoke:

"Really, Brother Ye Tian?"

"That's truly wonderful news!"

"Years ago, you were the number one genius in Lieyang City,"

"Now that you can continue cultivating, no one will dare to gossip about you anymore!"

"And... maybe when Sister Qingyan hears you can cultivate again, she'll change her mind about you..."

Ye Tian was happily listening to Nie Qingzhu's congratulations,

But upon hearing the name Su Qingyan,

Ye Tian's expression suddenly turned cold!
