Chapter 157 I Want To Keep A Low Profile!

  The crowd's pace was not fast, after all, Ye Chen wanted them to consider the people brought by the group. Those people were mostly cultivators in the Gathering Qi realm, but their speed had to be much slower than Ye Chen and his companions.

  Liu Yuer looked at the crowd's speed and frowned slightly, then said to Ye Chen: "Brother Chen, at this rate, I'm afraid you won't be able to make it back!"

  Ye Chen listened to Liu Yuer's words and nodded in agreement, after all, he also knew that the speed of the crowd was a bit slow. He then said: "Why don't we take Brother San or Brother Er and leave first?"

  Liu Yuer nodded and said, "That's for the best!"

  Ye Chen nodded and immediately signaled for the people running around to stop.

  "Fourth brother, what's wrong?" Qun San and Qun Yu looked at Ye Chen, signaling everyone to stop, and then rushed over, asking him in puzzlement.

  Ye Chen took a deep breath and said softly, "Two brothers, our journey is too slow now. I must return to the sect to participate in the selection! Unless one of you two follows me first?"

  The two of them exchanged a glance, and then San said: "I'll go ahead first! Er Ge can bring the people from behind!"

  "Alright!" Ye Chen responded with a nod and then gestured to Liu Yuer.

  Liu Yuer nodded and directly picked up Ye Chen, stepping into the air and flying towards Lianyun Sect.

  Qun San nodded at Qun Yu and immediately rushed towards Ye Chen in a hurry.

  The three of them moved extremely quickly, as if they were walking on air. Although Liu Yuer was carrying Ye Chen, she was after all a cultivator at the fifth level of Yuan Dan, and Qun San was also a cultivator in the Yuan Dan realm. Therefore, after five days of non-stop travel, the three of them had already caught sight of the distant outline of the Taiyun Mountains.

  Ye Chen gazed at a small town in the distance from the sky, his mouth curled into a faint smile: "I've finally returned! When I left, I was just a scattered body of eightfold, now I'm an assembled energy cultivator of eightfold, what a huge change!"

  "Brother Chen, is this town yours?"

  Liu Yu'er looked at the distant Tianyu Town and said with some shock, "They don't know Ye Chen's background." Liu Yu'er was very clear about it. She couldn't imagine how Ye Chen, who was a cultivator in the Fragmented Body Realm back then, could become the master of this town. She had no idea that Ye Chen becoming the master of this town also relied on a large part of luck. At that time, some powerful adventurers from Tianyu Town had entered the Taoyun Mountains. Otherwise, Ye Chen wouldn't have been able to easily retake Tianyu Town with his own strength at the fourth level of the Fragmented Body Realm.

  A moment later, the three of them fell directly from the sky into the center of the town.

  As soon as she landed, Liu Yuer's expression was slightly stunned, and then she stared blankly at a three-meter-high statue on one side, saying in surprise: "This... this... looks so familiar!"

  He immediately turned his head and looked at Ye Chen in a daze, then turned his head again to look at the statue, and then looked at Ye Chen again...

  "Isn't this Fourth Brother?" Gang San burst out laughing and said.

  Ye Chen also stared blankly at the statue in front of him. He nodded and said, "It seems to be me indeed!"

  The two of them nodded blankly.

  Ye Chen shook his head helplessly and said: "Let's go to the town mayor's mansion first! We'll talk about it when we get there, I reckon it's Li Youwang who's behind this!"

  The two nodded immediately and followed Ye Chen's back towards the town hall.

  "Halt! Who goes there? Don't you know it's forbidden to barge into the town mayor's residence?"

  A guard looked at Ye Chen and the other two, not even saying hello, and was about to walk inside. He quickly walked up and blocked Ye Chen's path, his face ferocious and menacing.

  Ye Chen looked at the guard in front of him, slightly stunned, and then frowned, saying: "Are you new here?"

  The guard listened to Ye Chen's words, furrowed his brow, and then carefully looked at Ye Chen, saying in a puzzled tone: "Who are you? Why do I feel so familiar with you?"

  Ye Chen listened to the guard's words and burst out laughing. He pointed behind him at the center of the town and said in a low voice, "Am I not right there?"

  Huo Wei was taken aback, and his face changed color as he trembled with the question: "You... are... Ye Chen?"

  Ye Chen burst out laughing and nodded his head, saying: "I am Ye Chen!"

  The guard heard Ye Chen's acknowledgment and immediately knelt down to the ground, respectfully saying: "Young Master Ye, I was rude just now! Please don't mind it!"

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter, is Li Youwang here?"

  The guard hastily nodded and respectfully said: "Young Master Ye, the town mayor is currently at home! Do you want me to go and inform him for you?"

  "Never mind, let's go find him directly!"

  "Yes!"

  Huo Wei respectfully replied and immediately stood up, retreating to one side with a face full of admiration looking at Ye Chen, after all, Ye Chen was their idol!

  Ye Chen nodded slightly and immediately led the two of them towards the inner courtyard of the mansion.

  "Li has hope!"

  Ye Chen looked at Li Youwang who was practicing on the martial arts platform and smiled slightly, shouting loudly.

  Li Youwang had just finished an action when he heard a familiar voice behind him, and immediately became stunned. His face suddenly lit up with joy, and he hastily turned around to see Ye Chen standing there with a smile on his face. He rushed over and knelt down at Ye Chen's feet, saying respectfully: "Master, you've finally returned!"

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Get up! This is not a place for conversation, let's go inside!"

  "Good!" Li Youwang hastily stood up and respectfully said to Ye Chen, then made a please gesture, waiting for Ye Chen to go first before following him from behind, walking towards the inside.

  Ye Chen sat in the upper seat, Qun San sat in the lower hand position on the other side, Li Youwang sat in Ye Chen's lower hand position, and Liu Yuer stood quietly beside Ye Chen.

  "Master, why have you been away for so long this time! Master's several brothers returned to the sect three days ago and instructed me before they left that if the master returns, I should hurry back immediately so as not to miss the selection!"

  Ye Chen smiled and nodded slightly, saying in a soft voice: "I know, I came here today to introduce you to someone, and then I'll be leaving immediately!"

  "Introducer?" Li Youwang was taken aback, and immediately turned his head to look at Qun San sitting opposite him.

  Ye Chen nodded and said: "This is my sworn brother, from now on he will live here, in the future whatever you do must listen to him!"

  Upon hearing this, Li Youwang respectfully nodded and immediately furrowed his brow, hastily saying: "Master, I have another matter to report!"

  "Speak!"

  "Master, I heard that Liu Wuwei's former master has arrived here and wants to avenge Liu Wuwei!"

  "Master? Hmph, what kind of person?"

  Ye Chen snorted, saying disdainfully that his current cultivation was no longer at the Fragmented Body Realm. With the presence of Qun San, a Yuan Dan cultivator, in Tian Yu Town, who could rival him?

  "I heard he's a master with a cultivation base of five layers of Qi gathering. His subordinate has been inquiring about it recently!" Li Youwang said hastily.

  Ye Chen smiled slightly and said: "Don't mind it, it's just a five-layered gathering of Qi!"

  Li Youwang was stunned by Ye Chen's words and stared blankly at him.

  Ye Chen burst out laughing and immediately glanced at Qian San.

  Qun San saw Ye Chen looking at him, and he smiled slightly. He understood that Ye Chen wanted him to show off his skills a bit. Although Li Youwang would listen to Ye Chen's face and follow his instructions on the surface, he must have some reservations in his heart! Only when Li Youwang sees his own powerful cultivation will he be more willing to listen to him!

  The three of them slowly stood up, and with a faint smile at Li Youwang, their bodies directly floated upwards.

  "Original Dan Boundary!" Li Youwang stared at Qun San who directly floated up, his expression shocked!

  To know the sign of a cultivator who has reached the Yuan Dan boundary is that they can tread on empty space and walk!

  Ye Chen burst out laughing and immediately stood up, taking Liu Yuer with him as they walked towards the outside. Halfway through, he suddenly stopped in his tracks, turned around to face Li Youwang, and smiled slightly, saying: "The statue in the middle of the town was made by someone you found, wasn't it?"

  Li Youwang listened to Ye Chen's words and only then reacted from the shock, immediately hastily saying to Ye Chen: "Report back to Master, it was me who found someone to do it!"

  "I want to keep a low profile!" Then Ye Chen chuckled and said, "Whatever, it's all just money! Haha!"

  Everyone listened to Ye Chen's words with an awkward smile, they weren't fools, and it wasn't hard to hear from Ye Chen's tone that he was taking advantage of the situation...
