Chapter 219: with translation of chapter title

After the fight, his inner energy hadn't waned at all—not even a crease on his black robe—he seemed to be taking a leisurely walk, completely calm and composed.

Translation: "After a battle, his inner breath showed no diminution, not even a hint of disorder in his black robe, as if he were strolling, calm and composed."

Check: we need to keep meaning. "calm and composed" = calm and composed. Good.

Yang Chu stood with his hands behind his back, expression calm, silently watching Yin Tian-de lying in a pool of blood, feeling no contempt or disdain whatsoever.

Translation: "Yang Zhu stood with hands behind his back, expression indifferent, quietly gazing at Yin Tian De lying in a pool of blood, without the slightest contempt or disdain."

Yin Tian-de possesses astonishing talent and formidable strength—enough to dominate nearly anyone—but it's unfortunate that he was born in the same era as Yang Chu.

Translation: "Yin Tian De's talent was astonishing, his strength not to be underestimated, capable of overwhelming nearly everyone, yet unfortunately he was born in the same era as him."

Only an imperial-prince-level figure could even hope to contend with Yang Chu, and for Yin Tian-de to display such strength is already commendable.

Translation: "Only an imperial son–level figure could barely serve as Yang Zhu's opponent; Yin Tian De displaying such strength is already commendable."

"You… aren't going to kill me?"

Note: The line includes quotation marks inside? Actually line: "You… aren't going to kill me?" We'll translate: "You… aren't going to kill me?"

Yin Tian-de's lips quivered; even that slight movement sent sharp pain throughout his body, causing him to gasp involuntarily.

Translation: "Yin Tian De's lips trembled slightly; just that tiny movement sent sharp pain through his whole body, causing him to involuntarily suck in a breath of cold air."

"There's no need—you're no threat to me."

Translation: ""It's unnecessary; you pose no threat to me.""

Yang Chu swept his hand over the forbidden symbols on Yin Tian-de's wounds, dispelling them, then turned and walked away.

Translation: "Yang Zhu brushed his palm over the forbidden runes covering Yin Tian De's wounds, and they all dissipated; then he turned and left."

With the strange symbols' suppression gone, heaven and earth's vital energy surged like a tide, quickly mending Yin Tian-de's wounds.

Translation: "Without the suppression of those strange runes, heavenly and earthly essence surged like a tide, swiftly repairing Yin Tian De's injuries."

"Hey, Dog Tian-de, aren't you guys crazy?"

Translation: ""You damned Tian De, aren't you guys crazy?""

The huge black dog surged forward, leapt into the air, and its massive black paw—about the size of a mat—came crashing down toward Yin Tian-de's head.

Translation: "The big black dog lunged forward, leaping into the air, its huge black paw— as large as a cushion— about to slap Yin Tian De's head."

"Little Black, come back—don't mess with him."

Translation: ""Little Black, come back; don't toy with him.""

At the crucial moment, Yang Chu gave a soft call, and the huge black dog stopped dead in its tracks.

Translation: "At the critical moment, Yang Zhu gave a soft call, and the big black dog instantly halted its movement."

"Damn, you're lucky… here you come!"

Translation: ""Damn, you've got a big life… here you come!""

Though the big black dog wanted to kill the foe, it held back, gave the half‑dead Yin Tian‑de a vicious stare, muttered under its breath, and darted back to Yang Chu's side.

Translation: "Although the big black dog wanted to kill the opponent, it refrained from further action, glaring fiercely at the half‑dead Yin Tian De, muttering a sentence before scurrying back to Yang Zhu's side."

A vast black ocean stretched out of sight; the entire crowd fell silent as if hushed, everyone stunned, unable to regain composure for a long while.

Translation: "An endless black ocean stretched out, the crowd fell silent like cicadas in winter, everyone stunned, unable to recover for a long time."

"The only one in fifty thousand years to pass the Eight‑Scenes Palace trial—the most gifted of the Zi Wei generation—was beaten by Yang Chu in just three moves."

Translation: ""The sole person in fifty thousand years to pass the Eight Views Palace trial, the most extraordinarily talented of the Zi Wei generation, was actually defeated by Yang Zhu in three moves.""

"He dominates the era, his divine power is unrivaled, and he bears the aura of a great emperor!"

Translation: ""This person overwhelms the present age, his divine might unmatched, bearing the aura of a great emperor!""

Then the crowd erupted, the Northern Sea shook; today's battle was so spectacular and shocking that it let all the peerless powerhouses and heavenly talents witness what true imperial caliber means. While everyone marveled at Yang Chu's strength, no one dared to slight Yin Tian‑de even a bit.

Translation: "Then the arena erupted, the North Sea trembled; today's battle was too stunning and shocking, letting countless peerless powerhouses and heroic geniuses witness what true imperial caliber is! While people marveled at Yang Zhu's strength, no one dared to slight Yin Tian De in the slightest."

Even though he fell to Yang Chu in just a few moves, he could still dominate the younger Zi Wei generation—no doubt about it.

Translation: "Even if he lost to Yang Zhu in just a few moves, he could still dominate the younger generation of Zi Wei beyond doubt!"

"My god, is this the human imperial prince?!"

Translation: ""My goodness, is this what a human imperial son is like?!""

Li Tian watched Yang Chu approach, overcome with excitement; when they acquired the Fusang divine tree, they believed they already knew Yang Chu's power.

Translation: "Li Tian watched Yang Zhu approach, overcome with excitement; when they obtained the Fusang Divine Tree, they thought they already understood Yang Zhu's strength."

Only today's battle truly opened their eyes, showcasing the imperial prince's bearing in full, unrestrained splendor.

Translation: "Only after today's battle did they finally have their eyes opened wide, fully displaying the imperial son's demeanor in an exhilarating, unrestrained manner!"

"Young Master Yang…"

Translation: ""Young Master Yang…""

Yi Qingwu, the foremost beauty of Zi Wei, clenched her jeweled teeth, her lovely red lips pressed together, a strange light flashing in her eyes as she opened her mouth to step forward.

Translation: "Yi Qingwu, the foremost beauty of Zi Wei, clenched her jeweled teeth against her gorgeous red lips, a strange light flashing in her eyes as she opened her mouth to step forward."

"Hum!"

Translation: ""Hum!""

Suddenly, spatial energy surged, and a divine light platform pierced the void, appearing beside Yang Chu.

Translation: "Suddenly, spatial power flowed, and a Divine Light Platform pierced the void, arriving beside Yang Zhu."

In the next instant, the platform burst with divine light, and crystal‑clear flower petals rained down from the sky, translucent and sparkling with tiny glints.

Translation: "The next moment, the Divine Light Platform burst forth with divine light, and instantly crystal‑clear flower petals rained down from the sky, translucent and sparkling with tiny glints."

Waves of fragrant scent drifted over, calming the mind inexplicably; in the next moment, a peerless beauty appeared on the holy light platform.

Translation: "Waves of fragrant scent assailed the nose, calming the mind inexplicably; the next moment, a peerless beauty appeared on the Holy Light Platform."

The Yaochi Saintess had a graceful, elegant figure, her skin like congealed fat; her absolute beauty was veiled by gauze, faintly visible, lending a hazy allure.

Translation: "The Yaochi Saintess's figure was slender and graceful, her skin like congealed fat; her exquisite visage was half‑veiled by a gauze, faintly visible, giving a hazy sense of beauty."

She resembled a fairy from the Moon Palace—pure, lovely, and flawlessly beautiful—and at the instant she appeared, everything beautiful in the world seemed to dim.

Translation: "She resembled a fairy from the Moon Palace, pure and lovely as an immortal, flawlessly beautiful; at her appearance, all wonderful things in the world dimmed."

The Yaochi Saintess's beautiful eyes sparkled as she gazed quietly at Yang Chu, gentle as water, bearing a smile she could hardly hide.

Translation: "The Yaochi Saintess's beautiful eyes flickered as she quietly gazed at Yang Zhu, gentle as water, bearing a smile hard to conceal."

She stepped forward, her jade arm lightly encircling Yang Chu, leaning gently against him.

Translation: "She stepped forward, her jade arm lightly encircling Yang Zhu, leaning gently against him."

"Little Moon, have you finished receiving the inheritance?"

Translation: ""Little Moon, have you finished receiving the inheritance?""

Yang Chu embraced the person before him; a fragrant scent drifted, lingering at the tip of his nose, making him feel like he was basking in a spring breeze, calming his mind. "Mm."

Translation: "Yang Zhu embraced the person before him, the fragrant scent wafting to his nostrils, lingering at the tip of his nose, making one feel like basking in spring breeze, able to calm the mind. "Mm.""

The Yaochi Saintess lifted her clear eyes to meet Yang Chu's, lightly tapping her flawless chin.

Translation: "The Yaochi Saintess lifted her clear eyes to meet Yang Zhu's hand, lightly tapping his flawless chin."

The Western Emperor's inheritance is attainable only by an extraordinarily gifted saintess, and the longer it lasts, the greater the chance to obtain it.

Translation: "The West Emperor Inheritance is obtainable only by a saintess of extraordinary talent; the longer the inheritance lasts, the greater the opportunity gained."

Of course, this duration also depends on one's talent and Dao nature.

Translation: "Of course, this duration also depends on one's talent and Dao nature."

The Yaochi Saintess had expected to need at most three years, but this insight turned out to be six years; after leaving seclusion, she practically rushed over right away.

Translation: "Originally the Yaochi Saintess estimated she would need at most three years, but this realization turned out to be six years; after she left seclusion, she practically rushed over at the first opportunity."

"The second layer of Immortal One—looks like the harvest is plentiful."

Translation: ""First stage of the Immortal, second layer— the gains seem quite abundant.""

Yang Chu discovered that the other party had already entered the Immortal Platform, ranking among the mighty cultivators; their progress was rapid, leaving many heavenly talents of the Eastern Wasteland far behind.

Translation: "Yang Zhu discovered that the other had already entered the Immortal Platform, ranking among the great cultivators; his progress was rapid, leaving many geniuses of the Eastern Wasteland far behind."

"But there's still a long way to go before you."

Translation: ""But there's still a long way to go before you.""

The Yaochi Saintess's improvement was swift enough that she thought she could keep pace with Yang Chu; when they met again, she found the gap growing ever larger.

Translation: "The Yaochi Saintess's improvement speed was fast enough; she thought she could keep pace with Yang Zhu, yet upon meeting again she found the gap growing ever larger."

This is also unavoidable, after all—Dao nature, talent, and inheritance are fixed; Yang Chu's cultivation speed can only be described as terrifying.

Translation: "This is unavoidable, after all, given the Dao nature, talent, and inheritance in place; Yang Zhu's cultivation speed can only be described as terrifying."

"My goodness, is this the Yaochi Saintess you spoke of? She's certainly no worse than Yi Qingwu!"

Translation: ""Good grief, this is the Yaochi Saintess you spoke of? She's certainly no inferior to Yi Qingwu!""

Li Tian and Yan Yixi were both stunned upon seeing the Yaochi Saintess.

Translation: "Li Tian and Yan Yi Xi were both stunned upon seeing the Yaochi Saintess."

They weren't foolish; they had long noticed Yi Qingwu's affection for Yang Chu and had been trying to bring them together.

Translation: "They weren't foolish; they had long noticed Yi Qingwu's affection for Yang Zhu and kept trying to bring them together."

Who would have thought they learned from the big black dog and Duan De that Yang Chu already had someone dear to him—just that, for certain reasons, they weren't currently together.

Translation: "Who would have thought they'd learn from the big black dog and Duan De that Yang Zhu already had someone dear to him, merely delayed by certain reasons from traveling together."

They wondered what kind of peerless beauty could catch Yang Chu's eye, wanting to know more, but those two rascals—the big black dog—just wouldn't say.

Translation: "They were curious what kind of peerless beauty could win Yang Zhu's favor, wanting to know more, but those two rascals, the big black dog and Duan De, refused to tell."

Only later, after going around, did they finally learn from the other party that the person was the Yaochi Saintess; as for the rest, they remained unaware.

Translation: "Only after winding around did they finally learn from the other's mouth that the person was the Yaochi Saintess; as for the rest, they remained unaware."

"Each has her own merits, but both are rare beauties."

Translation: ""Each has her own merits, yet both are rare beauties.""

Yan Yixi, dressed in white like a painting, lightly waved her treasure fan, offering that assessment.

Translation: "Yan Yi Xi, dressed in white like a painting, lightly waved her treasure fan, offering that assessment."

"How is the Northern Dipper?"

Translation: ""How is Beidou doing?""

Afterwards, Yang Chu asked the question he'd always cared about; since the Northern Dipur set sail, six years have passed, and such a splendid period must have seen many major events.

Translation: "Then Yang Zhu asked the question he had long cared about; since Beidou set sail, six years have passed, and such a splendid Beidou must have witnessed many major events."

By now the Northern Dipper might have seen many ancient clans emerge—can humanity still withstand them?

Translation: "Calculating the time, Beidou might now have seen many ancient clans emerge; can the human race still withstand them?"

Hua Yunfei, the White‑clothed God King, Jiang Yi Fei and other old acquaintances—how are they now? "The current Northern Dipper is not peaceful…"

Translation: ""What about old friends like Hua Yun Fei, the White‑Clothed God King, and Jiang Yi Fei? … "The current Beidou is not peaceful…""

After leaving seclusion, the Yaochi Saintess lingered a moment, having roughly grasped recent major events, before activating the divine light platform.

Translation: "After leaving seclusion, the Yaochi Saintess deliberately lingered a moment, having roughly grasped recent major events, before activating the Divine Light Platform."

According to her, in these six years the Wanlong Nest and Purple Mountain have seen powerful ancient creatures emerge one after another, in considerable numbers.

Translation: "According to her, in these six years the Myriad Dragon Nest and Purple Mountain have seen powerful ancient creatures arise one after another, their numbers not few."

Nowadays, the Northern Dipper sees ancient clans growing ever stronger; those sealed away until now are, without exception, powerful, gradually competing with humanity for territory.

Translation: "Now in Beidou, the ancient clans grow ever stronger; those sealed until now are without exception powerful, gradually vying with the human race for territory."

After the changes of heaven and earth, human sages rarely appear; facing terrifying and powerful ancient creatures, most forces can only yield, not daring to be their enemy.

Has the Myriad Dragon Nest also appeared?

As for this result, Yang Zhu was not surprised, for those sleeping inside were all powerful ancient creatures; they naturally could not remain buried.

The people of Beidou are all looking forward to your return.

When the ancient race emerged, it was like a surging flood sweeping everything, unstoppable; however, the heaven‑pride geniuses and divine bodies of the Eastern Wasteland have not truly risen, suffering successive defeats.

Even if they wanted to resist, they were willing but powerless, and were suppressed everywhere by the ancient race.

At this moment, people were calling Yang Zhu's name, knowing that only the Sacred Body Dao Embryo could turn the tide! (End of chapter)
