Chapter 50: True Purpose

Ye Shuixian walked out of the cultivation room, having fully integrated her awakened power. Now, she had reached the peak of body refining.

Ye Chen and his son turned to look at her, sensing her realm, both showing expressions of joy.

"The Divine Body is truly extraordinary. After awakening, the body refining is already complete," Ye Chen exclaimed. The speed of her cultivation was even faster than his recovery speed.

"Father, Brother Chen, Master..." Ye Shuixian didn't seem happy, only worried. She had just heard what Li Qianzhong said.

"Shuixian, you don't need to worry. We will win this battle," Ye Feng said calmly, releasing his own aura. At the fourth level of the Elemental Pulse, he was comparable to the fourth level of True Martial Realm, but much stronger.

"Fourth level of True Martial Realm! This..." Ye Shuixian was astonished.

In less than three months, her father had broken through from the Spirit Martial Sixth Layer to the True Martial Fourth Layer. Wasn't his cultivation speed terrifying and difficult to believe?

"The Ye family can be easily destroyed," Ye Chen said indifferently.

In the past two months, he hadn't broken through. He had given all the resources to Ye Feng and focused entirely on refining Ye Feng. He hadn't even practiced himself.

After all, Ye Feng facing Ye Lingtian was indeed a huge challenge.

But in Ye Chen's eyes, Ye Long was just an ant. At the True Martial Second Layer, one finger could crush him. There was no need for him to prepare.

Just then, footsteps approached, accompanied by a voice.

"Brother Ye, may I disturb you?" It was the voice of the Third Prince, Li Jiangmo. He had actually come here.

"Come in," Ye Chen said calmly.

The rumors outside were that he was the Third Prince's man. He wanted to see what attitude Li Jiangmo would adopt.

Half a month later, after resolving the grudges with the Ye family, he would definitely take Ye Shuixian away. Anyone who dared to stop them, no matter who it was, would die.

As Ye Chen spoke, two figures walked in. Apart from Li Jiangmo, Ouyang Qingyun followed him.

"What's the matter?" Ye Chen asked directly.

Li Jiangmo smiled bitterly and said, "These days, my eldest brother has been targeting me. In just two months, I feel like I've been stripped of my skin. Brother Ye, I'm bearing this burden for you."

When Li Jianghong mistook his opponent and thought that Ye Chen and his son were just pawns of Li Jiangmo, Li Jiangmo shifted his focus to Ye Chen's son. In these two months, openly and secretly, he launched many attacks, making Li Jiangmo feel overwhelmed.

Only he knew that Ye Chen and his son were not his pawns. On the contrary, he needed to please them to seek their assistance.

However, while Li Jiangmo was enduring Li Jianghong's attacks, Ye Chen and his son showed no intention of helping him, which made him feel helpless.

"If you're looking for trouble, what can I do?" Ye Chen said calmly.

From start to finish, he didn't need anyone's help. Li Jiangmo had mistakenly thought that Ye Chen and his son were his pawns and had launched attacks against him. In reality, they didn't need any help from Li Jiangmo. It was Li Jiangmo's own mistake to involve himself with the Ouyang family in the academy, attracting the attention of the Crown Prince.

Li Jiangmo smiled bitterly and suddenly became serious. "I'm here to tell Brother Ye some news."

"Go on," Ye Chen said casually.

Li Jiangmo glanced at Ye Shuixian, and his pupils contracted slightly. The words he was about to say stuck in his throat.

At the peak of Spirit Martial Realm, Ye Shuixian had unexpectedly broken through to a higher level, catching up to his speed!

In these two months, he had wanted to break through to the True Martial Realm, but facing Li Jianghong's attacks, he found it difficult even to protect himself, let alone cultivate.

Cultivation was like rowing against the current. If you didn't advance, you would retreat, and ultimately, you would be caught up by others.

"I don't have time to waste with you. What's the matter, speak quickly," Ye Chen said, bringing Li Jiangmo back to his senses.

"Do you know about the Northern Cold Palace?" Li Jiangmo asked.

The Northern Cold Palace?

Of course, Ye Chen didn't know. How could he know about the sects and forces of the Canglan Continent? It was Ye Feng who showed a slight change in expression.

"The Northern Cold Palace, one of the Nine Cold Eighteen Sects?"

"Yes," Li Jiangmo said with a solemn expression. The Xuantian Empire dominated one side and controlled thirty-six cities, but in front of the true sects, it was like an ant.

"The Northern Cold Palace is extremely powerful. It has many imperial martial artists and may even have a Saint Martial expert. The Xuantian Empire is just one of its subsidiaries," Li Jiangmo said quietly.

"What are you trying to say?" Ye Chen asked, showing no interest in the Northern Cold Palace.

"Do you know why the royal family and the academy value Ye Shuixian so much?" Li Jiangmo asked.

Without waiting for Ye Chen's response, he continued, "It's because of Ye Shuixian's Ice Cold Body."

Ice Cold Body?

Ye Chen had never heard of such a physique before. The renowned Xuanbing Divine Body was actually called the Ice Cold Body? It seemed a bit ridiculous.

Li Jiangmo continued, "The Northern Cold Palace's young master, Bei Guanghan, values Ye Shuixian's Ice Cold Body and wants to cultivate with her to absorb the power of her Ice Cold Body. The royal family and the academy want to use Ye Shuixian to gain favor with the Northern Cold Palace."

What?!

Both Ye Feng and Ye Shuixian's expressions changed drastically.

No wonder the current emperor took Ye Shuixian as his adopted daughter and granted her the title of Princess Shuixian.

No wonder Li Qianzhong was so careful in training her and offered such generous rewards, trying to get them to leave without taking Ye Shuixian.

So this was their true purpose!

"Body snatching?!"

Ye Chen's pupils suddenly contracted, and the cold light in his eyes became extremely chilling.

These people, although they hadn't seen Ye Shuixian's true physique, knew that she had an affinity for the cold. Therefore, they wanted to snatch her physique and talent.

The cultivation they were doing now was just to keep her in captivity, waiting for their strength to be enough to take her away.

So that's how it is.

Ye Chen would no longer show mercy. He would retract his promise at this moment. Half a month later, he would definitely unleash a massacre.

Who dared to covet my sister, Ye Wuji?

"My relatives from the Ye family, whoever touches them will die!"

Ye Chen's eyes were sharp, and at this moment, his aura became extremely vast, like an endless starry sky, profound and unfathomable, making it difficult for people

 to see clearly, let alone approach.

It felt as if an unparalleled powerhouse was overlooking everything.

Li Jiangmo trembled, and Ouyang Qingyun's expression also changed.

Even Ye Feng and Ye Shuixian, who knew that Ye Chen had some chance encounter, were stunned.

At this moment, Ye Chen was so unfamiliar and terrifying.
