"I’ll come to see you as soon as I’m done with the matters at the Purple Mansion Sacred Land!"

"I miss you so much!"

Zhou Chen gently brushed Sanmiao Fairy’s eyes with two fingers, smiled, and turned away with large strides.

"Young master, take care!"

Sanmiao Fairy’s voice, usually akin to a heavenly melody, was now somewhat hoarse. Watching Zhou Chen leave, she felt as if a pillar of support was withdrawn from her, leaving her heart feeling hollow and her strength drained.

Suddenly.

Zhou Chen turned back, casually waved his hand, and a streak of light flashed, landing precisely in Sanmiao Fairy’s eyes.

"A gift for you, take good care of it!"

Zhou Chen smiled and left Miao Yu Palace.

"You big rascal!"

Sanmiao Fairy smiled charmingly, looking at the gift Zhou Chen had given her, her eyes filled with light, and the feeling of emptiness in her heart instantly vanished.

She felt completely satisfied inside.

In the sky above Six Desires Lake.

Zhou Chen stepped out, adjusted his belt, brimming with vigor and high spirits.

The gift he had just given was the Divine Weapon Heaven-Supporting White Jade Pillar, crafted by his own hand.

"Look quickly! It’s Zhou Chen!"

"It’s over, my goddess has definitely been charmed by Zhou Chen!"

Zhou Chen’s mere appearance attracted countless stares, many of which had lingered there since last night.

In fact, even more people had gathered by the shores of Six Desires Lake than the previous night.

Some were there to see Sanmiao Fairy.

Some were merely curious about Zhou Chen.

Others were just there to enjoy the spectacle.

Seeing Zhou Chen’s elated demeanor, it was clear he had already... with the goddess Sanmiao Fairy who haunted their dreams last night...

A name came to their mind.

Grandmaster Wind Moon, Zhou Santong!

Zhou Chen glanced at the crowd, unimpressed, and headed straight to the Purple Mansion Sacred Land.

With the Empress Master’s token, he moved unhindered within the Purple Mansion Sacred Land.

Moreover, as soon as he arrived at the Purple Mansion Sacred Land, an Elder at the King Realm was already waiting to greet him.

"Ziying pays respects to the Saint Heir!"

"Elder Ziying, there’s no need for formalities!"

Zhou Chen cupped his hands in a courteous gesture.

A king is undoubtedly a strong figure wherever he is.

An emperor is a magnate.

A Great Emperor is the supreme sovereign of humanity.

"Your Highness the Holy Son, Her Majesty the Empress has learned of your arrival and specifically asked me to welcome you. Let’s go to meet Her Majesty first!"

"Thank you, Elder!"

Zhou Chen followed Elder Ziying all the way to the Jasper Pool.

The Jasper Pool is where the Yaochi Empress resides.

Along the way.

Zhou Chen witnessed the might of the Purple Mansion Sacred Land. Continuous Immortal Mountains stretched endlessly, with countless temples and palaces suspended in the sky.

Spiritual Qi drifted like mist, weaving through the heavens.

On the Immortal Mountains, the Spiritual Qi was so dense that it formed rain.

The two moved quickly.

Yet it still took them half an hour to reach the Jasper Pool.

There, cliff faces held strange stones, peak towers rose sharp and majestic.

On the cliffs, colorful phoenixes sang in harmony;

Before the peaks, a Qilin lay alone.

Occasionally, you could hear the joyous calls of golden pheasants from the summit, and occasionally a dragon glided through the stone caves.

In the mountain forests were long-living deer and celestial foxes, on ancient trees perched spiritual birds and black cranes.

Exquisite spiritual herbs and strange flowers bloomed all year round, competing in beauty, creating a breathtaking sight.

Evergreen pines and cypresses stood timeless, lush and serene, pleasing to the eye.

The Immortal Peach tree constantly bore fruit.

The bamboo always brushed the clouds.

Truly a piece of the Immortal Mountain Blessed Land, as if heaven descended to earth, making it hard to distinguish between the sky and the ground.

The Yaochi Empress sat beneath a giant peach tree.

This peach tree was purple, its leaves adorned with cloud patterns, extraordinary in appearance, clearly not an ordinary variety; it was the top-grade spirit tree, Purple Cloud Immortal Peach.

It blossomed once every three hundred years, bore fruit every three hundred years, and took three hundred years to ripen. Consuming one was equivalent to a millennium of cultivation, truly top-grade.

Surrounded by floral rain, she sat beneath the peach tree, veiled in myriad visions, blurred in reality, as if in an illusion.

Zhou Chen stood and gazed at the Yaochi Empress.

The Yaochi Empress opened her eyes, and the flowery rain and other visions parted, revealing a perfect jade face that eclipsed sun and moon, overshadowing mountains and rivers.

This kind of beauty shouldn’t exist in the mortal realm, feeling unreal, flawless, like the reincarnation of Luoshen, with a slender neck, alabaster skin, sparkling eyes, and an exquisite posture.

She had a tall, slender figure, her black hair glossy like satin, a glowing golden cloud pattern between her brows, enhancing her infinite spiritual presence and majesty.

"You brat finally decided to come!"

The Yaochi Empress’s slight smile dimmed the bright moon, hid the stars, fading away all mundane things, leaving only her unparalleled brilliance.

She had taken Zhou Chen as her disciple for more than twenty years, yet this was Zhou Chen’s first visit to the Purple Mansion Sacred Land, to her Jasper Pool.

Indeed, he was a rare character.

Especially since upon arriving, Zhou Chen chose to first indulge in flirtations at the Miao Yu Palace rather than come to see her.

Truly a rebellious disciple.

Always disrespectful to masters and ancestors!

Staring at the unparalleled beauty of the Empress Master, Zhou Chen felt his blood boil, heart throb, and blurted out:

"Empress Master, you’re truly beautiful!"
