Chapter 1956

The woman named Jiaohua who was speaking is a Young City Lord of the Pill King Immortal City.

From their conversation, Tang Xin and Jiaohua must have known each other for a long time, and there was already resentment between them before.

That's why, upon meeting, she immediately opened with sarcastic ridicule to provoke.

However, in the past, Tang Xin usually ended up at a disadvantage, not only because of her own strength but also due to the strength gap between the two immortal cities.

In the Immortal Realm, there are the Cooking King Immortal City, Pill King Immortal City, Weapon King Immortal City, Talisman King Immortal City, and Formation King Immortal City.

Among these five relatively special immortal cities, the Pill King Immortal City's strength is implicitly the strongest.

After all, the status of a Pill Master in the cultivation world is inherently noble, far beyond what a Spirit Chef can compare to.

Those cultivators with the means will definitely choose pills as their first option, whether for Xiūliàn or healing injuries.

This also makes the Pill King Immortal City's foundation the deepest.

Moreover, as both are Young City Lords of the two great immortal cities and both are female cultivators, Tang Xin naturally does not get along with Jiaohua.

However, after being stopped by Ye Zhangqing, Tang Xin still quickly calmed down.

What the junior brother said is not bad; first let this jumping clown jump around a bit, then after entering the Ancient Dragon Battlefield we'll slowly deal with her.

On the other side, Jiaohua saw that Tang Xin, who had been fuming with anger, suddenly calmed down.

She gave Ye Zhangqing a look full of deep meaning.

I've never seen such a thing before, and this cultivation.......... Emperor Sovereign Realm—where did this trash come from?

Just a single glance, and Jiaohua lost interest in Ye Zhangqing.

She didn't even bother looking at Tang Xin, let alone an ant with only the great accomplishment of Emperor Sovereign Realm.

In Jiaohua's eyes, someone like Ye Zhangqing could be slapped to death with a single palm—several at once—and is not worth remembering at all.

Moreover, would someone like that even qualify as cannon fodder in the Ancient Dragon Battlefield? No, they don't even qualify as cannon fodder.

After all, at that age, with only Emperor Sovereign Realm cultivation, their combat strength wouldn't be very strong.

Although there is no substantive evidence, everyone acknowledges that talent and combat strength are related.

The stronger the talent, the stronger the combat strength, and vice versa.

"How come, after not seeing each other for a while, you've become mute? Have you turned into a shrinking turtle?"

I fucking..............

Hearing Jiaohua's provocation, Tang Xin gritted her teeth until they clacked, and she fiercely turned her head and glared at her.

However, thinking that arguing with her here would be pointless and that there was nothing she could do about her.

In the end, Tang Xin still suppressed her anger and let her rage on, to be settled after entering the Ancient Dragon Battlefield.

The Ancient Dragon Battlefield has only just opened; for now, let her be happy.

Tang Xin no longer paid attention to Jiaohua, ignoring her provocations completely, treating her as if she were air.

Faced with Tang Xin's indifferent, completely dismissive attitude, Jiaohua was also extremely angry.

It always feels like punching cotton.

Even looking at Tang Xin's utterly indifferent demeanor, Jiaohua couldn't help but want to strike out.

But she also knew that taking action here would yield no result.

With so many people present and the Ancient Dragon Battlefield about to open, other factions would not allow them to fight it out here.

If it spilled over to others, that would be bad.

If they want to fight, they can wait until they enter the Ancient Dragon Battlefield; then they can do as they please, and no one will stop them.

"Hmph, I'd like to see how long you can keep pretending."

After singing a solo act for too long, one would find it boring; after a round of mockery with no response at all, Jiaohua naturally also felt bored.

However, coincidentally, her current thought happened to be the same as Ye Zhangqing's and Tang Xin's.

They all decided to wait until entering the Ancient Dragon Battlefield to act, directly leaving the opponent there forever.

Jiaohua stopped boring herself, and Ye Zhangqing's surroundings also became peaceful.

Together with Tang Xin, they waited aboard the immortal vessel for the Ancient Dragon Battlefield to open.

When idle, Ye Zhangqing also took the initiative to cook a few home-style dishes at Fàn diǎn, and everyone gathered together to drink and eat.

On the road, Ye Zhangqing had never cooked before, mainly because he was lazy.

But now, being idle is still being idle, and Tang Xin can consider herself fortunate to have a good meal.

Upon first tasting Ye Zhangqing's food, a single bite made her expression just like Xu Jie and the others.

Moreover, the four junior sisters who had been following her were even more excited, surrounding Ye Zhangqing and chattering nonstop.

"Delicious, so delicious."

"Ye Shī xiōng, your cooking skills are simply heaven-defying."

"Yes yes yes, Ye Shī xiōng, how did you train your cooking skills? Can you teach us?"

"It's even better than what Senior Sister makes."

"Huh???"

"Sorry, Senior Sister, I............."

"Alright, I'm not that petty; besides, it's indeed better than what I make."

Tang Xin put on a calm facade, but her eyes gave her away; she simply couldn't comprehend how Ye Zhangqing's cooking could be so outrageous.

How on earth did he Xiūliàn like this? Unbeknownst to her, Tang Xin genuinely felt a bit convinced by Ye Zhangqing.

Convinced because in strength, cooking skill, talent, and every aspect, she was completely overwhelmed.

Faced with the five chattering girls, Ye Zhangqing remained calm, merely smiling and nodding in agreement, and letting them eat more if they liked.

In response, the several girls naturally would not refuse; even if Ye Zhangqing didn't say so, they would not hold back.

After finishing the meal, Ye Zhangqing returned to the cabin to rest.

In the evening, naturally there were four junior martial sisters taking turns on night watch.

Throughout the night, no one spoke; everyone present seemed to have silently formed an unspoken agreement—that before entering the Ancient Dragon Battlefield, they would not make a move, nor would any conflict occur.

Everyone waited calmly for the entrance to open.

Even Jiao Hua, who had provoked them the day before, did not come looking for trouble that night, behaving very honestly.

By the early morning of the second day, Ye Zhangqing had slept soundly, and just finished washing up under the service of a junior martial sister.

At that moment, a commotion suddenly came from outside.

Ye Zhangqing questioned doubtfully.

"Has the entrance opened?"

"No, not yet; calculating the time, it should open only tomorrow, so it's still a day early."

Just as the junior martial sister beside him finished speaking, another person rushed in excitedly.

"Ye Shī xiōng, the young master of the Heavenly Family has arrived, and indeed he really came."

"Tianlin?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's the young master Tianlin."

Before, I had heard quite a few things about Tianlin from Wu Zhong.

After all, Wu Zhong's sole request was to have Ye Zhangqing help him defeat Tianlin.

So, regarding Tianlin, Ye Zhangqing came to know a bit more, of course, all from Wu Zhong.

I never expected that Tianlin would actually come to this Ancient Dragon Battlefield; no wonder there's suddenly a commotion outside.

Under the accompaniment of two junior martial sisters, Ye Zhangqing came onto the deck, Tang Xin having arrived first.

At that moment, gazing toward the front-left, the position nearest the entrance, a youth dressed in a white long robe, bearing an elegant and noble aura, was being surrounded by a crowd in the middle.

Facing everyone's flattery, the youth smiled faintly, neither appearing cold nor losing decorum as he nodded in response.
