Chapter 835: Pee

Zheng!

Just as Ye Chen stood there, stunned, the **Taixu Gulong**'s fierce sword thrust had already reached within three inches of **Donghuang Taiyi**'s body.

However, at that very moment, **Donghuang Taiyi** gently raised her jade-like hand and precisely clamped the sharp sword blade between her fingers. No matter how much **Taixu Gulong** burned its dragon soul power, it couldn't advance even a fraction further.

"It's not that Long Ye is weak; it's that she's too strong." Ye Chen furrowed his brows.

Now, he truly understood **Nanming Yushu**'s words. The former **Xuan Huang**, the supreme emperor of **Da Chu**, had once flicked him away with a single finger, let alone a Quasi-Heaven Realm **Taixu Gulong**.

"Her cultivation is at least at the Great Saint level, maybe even higher than Senior **Jiang Taixu**." Ye Chen murmured to himself. **Donghuang Taiyi**'s immense power filled him with dread; he wasn't even sure if **Tianzhao** would work against her.

"This woman is really not to be messed with." Ye Chen scratched his head vigorously, feeling utterly helpless against her absolute dominance.

Whoosh!

No sooner had he spoken than the **Taixu Gulong**, which had just charged out from beside him, was sent flying backward.

Wah!

Ye Chen's eyes followed the trajectory of the **Taixu Gulong**'s flight, which was swift and direct, like a streak of divine light cutting through the void sky. It shot straight out the gate, crossing rivers and mountains. Even with his keen vision, he couldn't tell how far it had gone.

Gulp!

Ye Chen subconsciously swallowed hard. Damn, how far must that have flown!

**Taixu Gulong** was no ordinary being—it had combat power on par with a demon king, yet it was tossed around like a toy.

"Do you want to give it a try too?"

**Donghuang Taiyi**'s words snapped Ye Chen out of his daze.

Hearing this, Ye Chen turned to look at **Donghuang Taiyi** and saw her casually trimming her nails. It seemed the **Taixu Gulong** had been flicked away with just one finger from her.

"I'll pass." Ye Chen hurriedly coughed and waved his hand, instinctively stepping back. If she flicked him too, he'd be launched into outer space.

"Are you sure you don't want to try?"

**Donghuang Taiyi** looked at Ye Chen with great interest.

"No, no thanks." Ye Chen forced a smile that was more pathetic than a cry.

"I'll give you a special privilege: I can answer one question for you." **Donghuang Taiyi** continued to regard him with interest. "Think carefully before you ask. You only get one chance."

"Why do I get a special privilege?"

Ye Chen stared at **Donghuang Taiyi** in astonishment.

"Does that count as your question?" **Donghuang Taiyi** pulled out a small mirror and began fixing her hair while asking casually.

"Of course not." Ye Chen waved his hands frantically. If she answered that, he'd waste his opportunity, and **Taixu Gulong** would kill him when he got back.

"So, what's your question?"

**Donghuang Taiyi** asked leisurely.

Ye Chen stroked his chin, and for a moment, he nearly asked the question that **Taixu Gulong** wanted answered.

But he held back that impulse. Although he was curious for a precise answer from **Donghuang Taiyi**, he wanted to ask something else even more.

After a couple of seconds, he took a deep breath and looked straight at **Donghuang Taiyi**. "What is the status of **Tianxuan Gate** in relation to **Da Chu**?"

"A guardian deity."

"A guardian deity? Then you—"

"I'm sorry, you don't have the right to ask a second question." **Donghuang Taiyi** cut Ye Chen off mid-sentence, leaving all his lingering doubts unspoken.

With that, **Donghuang Taiyi** put away her mirror and smiled at Ye Chen. "My offer from **Tianxuan Gate** still stands. If you want to become one of our people, you can do so anytime. If you agree, I'll tell you all the secrets of **Da Chu**."

"Honestly, I don't like being tied down." Ye Chen shook his head.

"There's no rush to decide. If you change your mind, come find me anytime." **Donghuang Taiyi** shrugged casually.

"Beautiful senior, how about this?" Ye Chen cleared his throat and looked at **Donghuang Taiyi**. "Let's make a bet. If you win, I'll join **Tianxuan Gate**. If I win, you answer another question for me."

Oh?

**Donghuang Taiyi** raised an eyebrow and looked at Ye Chen with interest. "Kid, you're quite bold! You should know that if you lose, you won't have any control over what happens next."

"My luck in gambling has always been pretty good." Ye Chen chuckled and rubbed his hands together as he looked at **Donghuang Taiyi**. "So, are you in?"

"In, of course." **Donghuang Taiyi** smiled brightly at Ye Chen.

"Hey, just so we're clear, no backing out."

"Enough talk. What's the bet?"

"Who can pee farther." Ye Chen said, even picking his nose shamelessly as he spoke.

Pee... peeing!

**Donghuang Taiyi**'s expression turned extraordinarily colorful in an instant, as if she'd been struck by lightning.

She had thought that with her cultivation, abilities, and status, she could win at anything. But she never expected this shameless guy, Ye Chen, to suggest something so outrageous.

"Are you ready? I'm about to go."

Ye Chen had already rolled up his sleeves and lifted his robe.

But before he could pull out his... thing from his pants, he was slapped into the sky. For some reason, as he gazed at the vast world below, he felt like crying.

Wah!

**Fuya**, who had just entered, instinctively looked up, his eyes darting back and forth along Ye Chen's flight path, just as Ye Chen's had done earlier.

"Don't let me see you again."

**Donghuang Taiyi** was furious, like a raging tigress. If not for the rule that **Tianxuan Gate** couldn't interfere in **Da Chu**'s affairs, she might have strangled that jerk Ye Chen on the spot.

"The mighty Kunlun Goddess, outsmarted by a Quasi-Heaven Realm kid. Holy Master, what's your take on that?"

**Fuya** looked at **Donghuang Taiyi** with a serious expression.

"Do you have a death wish?"

**Donghuang Taiyi** glared at **Fuya** fiercely.

"Yes, yes, I do." **Fuya** hurriedly approached and handed her a jade slip. "I've looked into what you asked me to check. There are three people on this land who have transcended the six paths of samsara in **Da Chu**."

**Donghuang Taiyi** gently crushed the jade slip.

"**Shenxuan Feng** and **Hongchen**." **Donghuang Taiyi**'s beautiful eyes narrowed slightly.

"Surprising, isn't it?" **Fuya** sighed. "Honestly, it surprised me too."

"You said there are three. Why only two?"

**Donghuang Taiyi** turned to **Fuya**.

"I couldn't find any trace of the third one." **Fuya** shook his head helplessly.

"Couldn't find any?" **Donghuang Taiyi** furrowed her brows.

"Holy Master, is it possible that it's Ye Chen?" **Fuya** glanced at her tentatively. "He has the marks of reincarnation, but we can't find his past life in the heavenly samsara. Could he be the third one?"

"Probably not." **Donghuang Taiyi** took a deep breath. "Since he has the marks of reincarnation, that proves he's not the third person who transcended **Da Chu**'s six paths of samsara."

"But if he has reincarnation marks, why can't we see his past life in the heavenly samsara?"

**Fuya** still looked puzzled as he gazed at **Donghuang Taiyi**.

"Any self-created samsara must have flaws." **Donghuang Taiyi** said calmly. "He might be that one in a billion. I'll handle his issue. You focus on finding the third person."

"Understood." **Fuya** nodded, wanting to say more but holding back.

"You have doubts."

"Yes, just one." **Fuya** coughed. "I'm curious— is Ye Chen really **Haotian Xuanzhen**'s child?"

"No."

"Then why did the **Qiankun Cause-Effect Mirror** light up?"

"Because he absorbed too much earth essence from the **Zhengyang Sect**'s earth spiritual vein." **Donghuang Taiyi** said, tilting her head toward the misty void.

"Just from absorbing the earth essence of the spiritual vein, it made the **Qiankun Cause-Effect Mirror** light up? Holy Master, that reason seems a bit far-fetched."

**Fuya** looked at **Donghuang Taiyi** doubtfully.

"Do you know the origin of the **Zhengyang Sect**'s earth spiritual vein?"

"No."

"It's formed from the bloodline of the Child of the Earth, transformed over eons into a spiritual vein."

"The Child of the Earth?" **Fuya** was startled. "Has a Child of the Earth ever been born on this land?"

"That was a long time ago." **Donghuang Taiyi** said softly. "The bloodline of the Child of the Earth merges with all living beings. Ye Chen absorbed a lot of essence from the earth spiritual vein, so his body now carries a trace of the Child of the Earth's bloodline. That's why his bloodline resonates with **Haotian Xuanzhen**'s."

"So, does that mean anyone in **Da Chu** could resonate with Ye Chen's bloodline?"

"Exactly as you think."
