Chapter 74: Not to mention dangerous, mainly afraid of dirtying clothes

In the instant when the master appeared, the oppressive pressure that had weighed down on Leng Yanran, akin to a massive mountain, dispersed into thin air.

"Master…"

Feeling the warmth emanating from her master's embrace, along with his unique fragrance, Leng Yanran's body relaxed entirely. She nestled against his broad chest, her body growing soft. For her, a practitioner of the Profound Sky Realm at the Seventh Heaven, to stand firm under the pressure of a Divinity Separation Realm was no easy feat.

To merely withstand that pressure, nearly ninety percent of her spiritual power had been expended from her sea of qi. If Chen Daoxuan had arrived any later, she might have ended up injured from pushing herself too hard.

"Disciple has embarrassed you, master." Lying in her master's arms, Leng Yanran softly inquired.

Since she had joined her master's tutelage a mere three or four months ago, she had inadvertently caused numerous troubles. Every time she stirred up problems, her master had to personally intervene to resolve them. Leng Yanran couldn't help but feel useless.

She was determined to grow stronger, strong enough to handle any troubles and eliminate anyone foolish enough to challenge her master.

"Naturally, you haven't embarrassed me. Facing a Divinity Separation Realm without flinching at the Profound Sky Realm, who else in this world, other than my, Chen Daoxuan's disciple, possesses such courage?" Chen Daoxuan smiled lightly, gently patting Leng Yanran's head in reassurance.

"But... disciple always causes trouble for the master… Perhaps I should stay on the mountain from now on and avoid wandering around."

Hearing her master's gentle words, Leng Yanran's heart warmed. Unable to resist, she nuzzled her head against her master's chest, her voice filled with a touch of grievance.

"I've said it before, there's no trouble in this world that I can't handle. Go ahead boldly, do what you want to do, and go where you want to go. I'll support you in everything you do." Chen Daoxuan raised an eyebrow, his tone firm.

He couldn't allow his disciple to develop such notions. If she only stayed on the mountain, while that would indeed be good, how would she accumulate system points!

Look, his good disciple had brought him such generous gifts. How could that be considered troublesome? It was practically a vivid display of system points!

Entering the Profound Sky Realm started at ten points, Annihilation Realm at a hundred points, and Boundless Realm at a thousand points. As for the Patriarch Ren from earlier, a Divinity Separation Realm, that was worth tens of thousands of system points at least!

Especially considering he had previously spent a thousand system points to kill Patriarch Ren's avatar, ending up in a deficit. Now, he had the opportunity to recoup his investment and even make a substantial profit!

"That sly old fellow, hmph! Dying on the brink of death yet still putting on airs. After avenging Qirui, I'll kill you, then cripple your disciple's cultivation and place her in the Eastern Domain's brothel! Dare to touch my child, have you considered the consequences!"

Although the Family Head of the Ren Family could only gauge Chen Daoxuan's cultivation at the Qi Sea Realm's First Heaven, not knowing his true realm, with the Patriarch Ren present and even bearing the Five Elements Array Flag, even a Divinity Separation Realm at the Seventh Heaven might be suppressed.

In his view, regardless of how powerful Chen Daoxuan was, he couldn't possibly exceed the Seventh Heaven of the Divinity Separation Realm. In the Eastern Domain, that was already enough to reign supreme.

"Nonsense."

Chen Daoxuan furrowed his brows slightly. Initially, he hadn't paid much attention to the man's words, as they came from a dying person, soon to become his system points.

However, hearing the man insult his disciple, Chen Daoxuan couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.

"Palace Master, my plight is partly due to Leng Yanran. I beseech the Palace Master to intervene on my behalf!"

Beside him, Wang Yan, now awake, witnessed the tense standoff between Leng Yanran's master and the Ren Family. Excitement gleamed in his eyes, and he turned to the Palace Master at his side, imploring.

"Oh? I see. Rest assured, I, the Palace Master, will mediate for you. However, for now, let the Ren Family help gauge the opponent's strength. If they both end up in dire straits, we can take advantage of the situation!"

Upon hearing Wang Yan's plea, the Palace Master's gaze shifted slightly. Initially intending to leave, he now paused in his tracks.

"Elder, I'd like to ask for your help... well, never mind, sigh…"

Li Shenruo noticed the situation on the field and attempted to suggest extending a helping hand to the Elder, but a stern gaze from the Elder stopped her, leaving her sighing in resignation.

In the Eastern Domain, the Holy Mountain could be considered the most powerful force, yet it had always maintained neutrality amidst the struggles of various factions. This unique stance had granted the Holy Mountain an unparalleled position. If they were to act against the Ren Family today and disrupt the unspoken rules, it might arouse suspicion and resistance from other forces.

"We're in trouble now…"

"Our Northern Domain finally produced such a peerless genius like Leng Yanran, along with her immensely formidable mysterious master…"

"Now they have offended the major force from the Eastern Domain, sigh…"

Many Northern Domain powers shook their heads and sighed. The Northern Domain had always been lacking in resources, with even experts at the Boundless Realm being exceedingly rare over thousands of years.

Now that they had finally produced a high-level expert of their own, if he managed to survive, it would greatly bolster the Northern Domain's strength. At the very least, they could claim to possess powerful individuals when dealing with outsiders from other regions.

Chen Daoxuan could see through the thoughts of those present, but he didn't concern himself with them. As long as the other party didn't take the initiative or resort to disrespectful words, he had no intention of pushing them to their limits.

"Hmph, no matter how powerful you are, you're still a mere ant from the Northern Domain. Here stands Patriarch Ren of my Ren Family, wielding the Five Elements Array Flag. Even if you possess the power of the Divinity Separation Realm, I will still kill you! Today, vengeance for my son!"

Ren Family's Patriarch glared at Chen Daoxuan, his eyes brimming with hatred. He had only one son, the embodiment of the Ren Family's hopes and dreams.

"You speak too much."

Raising an eyebrow, Chen Daoxuan gradually descended, arriving beside several Holy Mountain elders and Li Shenruo. Facing a Divinity Separation Realm for the first time, he wasn't entirely confident. While slaying his opponent shouldn't be difficult, he was concerned about accidentally harming his disciple held in his arms.

"Kindly keep an eye on Yanran for me."

Chen Daoxuan glanced at Li Shenruo, noticing that she had already cultivated immortal-level techniques. Regretfully shaking his head, he realized that they weren't destined to be master and disciple. He then cast a curious glance at the innocent-looking Li Yourong.

For now, he put aside these thoughts and turned to the several Holy Mountain elders, making a request.

"Rest assured, Senior."

Initially, the three Holy Mountain elders were inclined to refuse, wanting to avoid getting involved. However, considering that Li Shenruo had been helped by them, she was the first to agree. The Holy Mountain elders had no choice but to remain silent.

"Master, you won't be in danger, right?"

Seeing her master leave her behind, Leng Yanran couldn't help but ask nervously.

"Can't say it's dangerous, but it might be a bit troublesome. Mainly, I'm concerned about them dirtying my clothes with their blood. It would be quite unpleasant."
