Chapter 1310: This Was Your Choice
"Ye Chen risked his life to seize the Immortal Elixir; he actually intended to give it to me?"
Zi Han loved Ye Chen to the extreme; upon hearing this confession, how could she not be moved?
Indeed, as Zi Han gazed upon Ye Chen's face, she wanted to throw herself into his arms.
However, with Qing Ge as a third wheel, Zi Han found it hard to be bold.
"I want to completely possess you, but you rejected me. For this, I'm very disappointed!" Ye Chen said.
"Ye Chen, I..."
"Don't speak; listen to me."
"..." Zi Han pressed her lips together, unsure of what he was going to say.
"I will wait for you!" Ye Chen said. "As long as you have me in your heart, even if the seas change and the rocks crumble, I will wait for you!"
"Ah." Zi Han's mind buzzed, leaving her completely stunned.
"Ye Chen is once again seizing the opportunity to charm women. Zi Han is a complete naive one, getting swayed by him like this..."
Ye Chen's skill in wooing women was too high, making even Qing Ge gasp in admiration and mourn for Zi Han.
Ye Chen and Zi Han's feelings were growing deeply. If it weren't for her excessive restraint, she would have long been captured by Ye Chen.
Yet Ye Chen understood women's minds too well; at the moment when Zi Han hesitated, he used such a masterstroke.
Zi Han was finished.
If things continued to develop like this, never mind ten thousand years, even one night would be uncertain...
"Ye Chen, just wait for me here. As long as I ascend to the Heavenly Dao, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Zi Han, holding the Immortal Elixir Ye Chen gave her, unexpectedly turned around and left to seclude herself.
"Heavenly Dao?" Ye Chen said. "You ascend to the Heavenly Tao Domain, and only then will you fulfill my wish. What if you can't ascend?"
Zi Han's meaning was clear that as long as she could ascend to the Heavenly Dao, she would meet Ye Chen's thoughts.
However, the Heavenly Dao is a Supreme Realm; how could it be so easily ascended?
The elusive battlefield is rampant with transcendence, but how many truly belong to the Heavenly Dao?
Although Zi Han obtained the Immortal Elixir, her chances of ascending to the Heavenly Dao were still likely very slim.
"Zi Han can't possibly ascend to the Heavenly Dao!" Qing Ge said.
"Why?" Ye Chen asked, surprised.
Zi Han's chances of ascension were small, but not impossible. Why did Qing Ge dare to assertively proclaim this?
"Because she cultivates the Mysterious Maiden Skill, she's already on the wrong path, and cannot reach the great path!" Qing Ge said.
The Mysterious Maiden Skill was a powerful cultivation technique, but it had too much influence on the cultivator. Ye Chen became Zi Han's beloved, which continuously affected her, obstructing her from reaching the Heavenly Dao.
"Where did that cultivation technique come from to be so domineering, blocking one's future path?" Ye Chen said with a darkened expression.
Ye Chen wanted Zi Han but wasn't devoid of humanity, nor forceful and overbearing.
If Zi Han became his woman, Ye Chen would protect her for life, bringing her into the celestial palace to rule over the world.
However, Zi Han, cultivating the Mysterious Maiden Skill, was already on the wrong path, rebellious against the great path... It was too cruel!
"I accidentally obtained the Mysterious Maiden Skill." Qing Ge said. "However, this technique is too overbearing. Once practiced, there's no going back; Zi Han... I've wronged her!"
Qing Ge had once explored a relic, obtaining an extraordinary fortune, which made her so strong, escaping Yu Jizi's control.
The Mysterious Maiden Skill came from that time; it is an inversion-defying cultivation technique.
Such a technique was too strange; even Qing Ge dared not cultivate it, only keeping it closely guarded.
Zi Han practiced this cultivation technique, which was within Qing Ge's plan, yet beyond her expectation. Because the Mysterious Maiden Skill was so unpredictable, despite its huge shortcomings, it possessed endless wonders, and what destiny the cultivator might achieve was unclear to anyone.
However, seeing Zi Han fall into worldly entanglements, unable to escape, made Qing Ge's heart sink halfway.
"Heh, Zi Han is your dear friend, yet you deceived her in such a way; you're truly cold-blooded!" Ye Chen sneered.
"Why would I deceive her, if not because of you?" Qing Ge raised her eyebrows. "If you hadn't proposed terms, how would I have targeted her?"
"..." Ye Chen was speechless because Qing Ge felt no guilt, and saying more was useless.
"Zi Han won't escape your grasp; when the time comes, you must fulfill your promise, and sever that causality!" Qing Ge said.
"We'll talk about it when the time comes." Ye Chen coldly replied.
"Ha." Qing Ge chuckled lightly. "I don't blame you for giving the Immortal Elixir to Zi Han, but I have one request!"
"A request?" Ye Chen asked.
"I want Chaos Qi!" Qing Ge said. "I know you have heaven-defying fortune and have obtained a large amount of Chaos Qi. I hope you'll give me some!"
"You think you can have it just because you ask?" Ye Chen found this amusing.
"Of course, I won't take it for free, and you can propose a request too!" Qing Ge said.
"Alright." Ye Chen said. "My request is that you spend a night with me."
"..."
Qing Ge, having dared to propose this, already anticipated Ye Chen's request.
However, she didn't expect Ye Chen to be so direct, without any attempt to disguise his intent... You could have said it a bit more diplomatically!
"What, have you agreed?" Ye Chen laughed.
"Just spend a night with you?" Qing Ge asked.
"What else do you want to do?" Ye Chen was speechless.
"..."
Qing Ge couldn't quite understand Ye Chen's intentions; does he have thoughts about her or something else?
"Let's go." Ye Chen turned to leave, seemingly impatient.
"What's the rush? The night hasn't even fallen yet!" Qing Ge said in a moment of anxiety, but regretted it afterward. Night or no night, she hadn't agreed...
But before she could finish her thought, Ye Chen had already disappeared into the cave, showing a carefree attitude.
"Damn it!" Qing Ge cursed, stomping her foot in frustration; this guy was too detestable.
Qing Ge's cultivation was unfathomable, much stronger than Li Zhengfeng and Wang Yiheng, lacking only a catalyst to step into the Heavenly Tao Domain!
Therefore, both the Immortal Elixir and Chaos Qi were of great use to her! However, the Immortal Elixir was taken by Zi Han, and Qing Ge couldn't steal it, so she put her hopes on the Chaos Qi.
Ye Chen, knowing her weakness, was surely scheming something, but Qing Ge had to comply because Ye Chen held her weakness and used it to coerce her!
In the dimly lit cave, Ye Chen took out a Luminous Pearl, brightening the space.
Then, he pulled out a piece of animal hide, laid it on the ground, and lay directly on it.
Ye Chen was exhausted today, having been chased by a Heavenly Dao expert. Though he managed to escape, it took a substantial toll.
Ye Chen didn't sleep because he was waiting for someone; Qing Ge was bound to come!
The woman was powerful and clever; once her mind was made, she wouldn't easily give up.
Ye Chen was waiting for her to fall into his trap!
However, Qing Ge wasn't easy to deal with; Ye Chen realized subduing her wouldn't be so simple.
Yet as long as she dared come, Ye Chen dared act; he had changed and evolved, making it hard for Qing Ge to resist him.
Sure enough, while Ye Chen was musing, a graceful figure appeared; Qing Ge had arrived.
"Come, lie here." Ye Chen looked at Qing Ge, patting the animal hide, saying.
"Ye Chen, don't push your luck!" Qing Ge was furious.
"How am I pushing it?" Ye Chen asked. "You asked for a condition, I opted for you to spend a night with me; it's your own choice!"
"..." Qing Ge's expression nearly froze.
"Hurry!" Ye Chen urged.
Finally, Qing Ge, with an unwilling heart and reluctant demeanor, lay on the animal hide.
"That's more like it!" Ye Chen smiled.
