Chapter 1817 Your Mouth Stinks
The woman was quite close to Ye Ning and intended to become his Daoist partner, practicing the Joyful Zen together.
But it's clear that Ye Ning didn't mean that.
This left the woman from Huanxi Temple feeling somewhat disappointed.
She knew that the man before her was an excellent choice for practicing the Joyful Zen.
However, the other party genuinely looked down on him.
Therefore, she had no choice but to give up.
Thinking of this, the woman sighed.
In fact, even if a Great Sage is not a Yin-Yang body, if he is willing to be paired with someone and practice the Joyful Meditation, many powerful individuals would flock to him.
Goddess like her never lack suitors.
Unfortunately, Ye Ning still didn't think much of her.
Those powerful individuals associated with immortals are truly extraordinary.
The three of them continued on their journey, encountering many people along the way.
There were monks and ordinary cultivators, all of whom were quite powerful.
Moreover, they all have remarkable achievements in their cultivation.
Many people greeted the goddess Dasheng when they saw her.
At the same time, their questioning gazes fell on Ye Ning, clearly filled with curiosity about him, wondering what his identity was.
Sensing Ye Ning's strength, no one dared to offend him easily.
This was a powerful expert at the ninth level of the Saintly Venerable realm, so they dared not be negligent in the slightest.
A Saintly Venerable is already considered a renowned figure in the region.
Moreover, he is a Saint Venerable at the ninth level, a powerful figure who can step into the Great Saint level at any time.
The goddess introduced herself to everyone.
"This is Fellow Daoist Ye, he is my friend."
Hearing the words of the Divine Maiden Great Sage, everyone was moved.
Someone who can be considered a friend by a great sage is clearly no ordinary person.
Their eyes were filled with curiosity as they looked at Ye Ning, their hearts brimming with a desire to uncover his identity.
"Judging from Fellow Daoist Ye, he doesn't seem to be a cultivator from the Buddhist Land. Could he be a powerful figure from the starry sky?"
A holy being spoke, asking Ye Ning a question.
His eyes were fixed on Ye Ning, as if he wanted to see right through her.
Ye Ning smiled faintly and said, "That's right. I am not a strong person from the Buddhist Land. I come from the starry sky. I was invited by the Great Sage Divine Maiden to participate in our Gathering of Prodigies."
He seemed very approachable.
This relieved the Holy Venerable. He was really afraid that the expert was some troublesome powerhouse who wouldn't pay any attention to him, which would have been awkward.
"My name is Lin Qinghua, from the Shenhua Sect. May I ask which sect Brother Ye belongs to in the starry sky? I imagine that a sect that can produce a powerhouse like Brother Ye must be quite extraordinary?"
Lin Qinghua spoke up, asking about Ye Ning's background.
Ye Ning smiled faintly and said, "I am just a rogue cultivator who embarked on the path of cultivation by chance, and I do not have a master or sect."
Lin Qinghua was taken aback, then became deeply respectful.
"Brother Ye is truly remarkable. To be able to cultivate to this level as a mere rogue cultivator is simply unimaginable. I admire you greatly."
This isn't something I said casually.
It's incredibly difficult for independent cultivators to improve their strength.
Not only are there limitations in terms of cultivation methods, but there is also a lack of guidance and even insufficient cultivation resources.
Under such circumstances, anyone who can reach the Saint Venerable level must possess astonishing talent and perseverance.
Ordinary cultivators simply cannot do that.
The time before reaching the Longevity Realm alone could kill a whole group of people.
Ye Ning smiled faintly, not expecting the other party to be so surprised.
He was aware of the plight of rogue cultivators, but he still underestimated the awe-inspiring presence of a rogue cultivator at the ninth level of the Saintly Venerable realm.
"It was just a coincidence. If I were to walk this path of cultivation again, I wouldn't be confident that I could get to this point again."
"Brother Ye is too modest."
Lin Qinghua sighed.
At this moment, the Great Sage Goddess said, "We've arrived."
Ye Ning and Lin Qinghua also sensed that they had arrived at their destination.
Atop a massive platform stood numerous powerful figures.
There are also seats at the front of the platform.
But those who can sit in the seats are at least Saint Venerable level experts.
Those below the rank of Holy One can only stand there.
With Ye Ning and the others' cultivation levels, they naturally had seats.
As the group walked over, someone came to greet them and invited them to sit down.
The female disciple from Huanxi Temple stood beside the goddess.
Even so, it was still quite an honor for her.
Only the most core disciples in a sect can stand beside their elders.
Her very presence here speaks volumes about her identity.
Ye Ning looked around, and everyone else looked at Ye Ning as well.
Because Ye Ning came with the Divine Maiden Great Sage.
No matter where you are, beautiful women are always the subject of conversation.
As the head of the Joyful Zen Temple, the Divine Maiden Great Sage is naturally even more so.
One of the Great Sages spoke up, sighing, "The Great Sage Divine Maiden is indeed unparalleled in charm. She has changed her Daoist partner again. It's true that once she has a new love, she forgets her old one."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned strange, their gazes sweeping between the Great Sage and the Divine Maiden with a hint of unease.
Ye Ning was also somewhat surprised. Could this Great Sage be the Goddess's former Daoist partner?
Judging from his expression, he was clearly provoking them.
However, the goddess doesn't seem like the type to start something and then abandon it; there must be something else she doesn't know about.
Ye Ning looked at the scene before him. Although he was somewhat dissatisfied that the other party had also included him in the discussion, he did not immediately react.
He wanted to know what the relationship was between the other person and the Divine Maiden Great Sage.
The Great Sage Goddess's eyes turned cold, her majestic aura enveloping the other woman as she coldly said, "Chang He, what do you mean? Are you deliberately provoking me?"
It was clear that the Divine Maiden Great Sage was quite angry, her eyes fixed on Chang He with a cold light.
Chang He looked at Shenji Dasheng with disdain and contempt.
"Provoke you? You dare to challenge me? A woman who sleeps with anyone, and now you dare to show up in front of me with your lover? Do you really think you can do whatever you want just because my brother isn't here? Slapping my brother in the face here?"
Ye Ning finally understood.
There is no connection between Changhe and Shenji.
The other party's brother might be the goddess's former lover.
But for some unknown reason, the two broke up.
At this moment, Lin Qinghua transmitted his voice to Ye Ning to explain.
"The Goddess's former Daoist partner was named Qin Guang. Qin Guang was originally of average talent, but he had known the Great Sage Goddess since childhood. After the Great Sage Goddess gained a certain level of strength, she found the elderly Qin Guang and helped him embark on the path of cultivation. She also practiced the Joyful Zen with him and helped Qin Guang improve his strength. In the end, in order to help Qin Guang, she was willing to sacrifice her own origin to help Qin Guang reach the Great Sage level."
Ye Ning looked puzzled.
Therefore, the two of them should have a very good relationship.
But why did they break up?
At this point, Lin Qinghua looked disdainful.
"That Qin Guang, after reaching the Great Sage level, cheated on his wife with another female cultivator and even used a secret technique to steal the essence of the Divine Maiden Great Sage. Later, he was caught having a secret rendezvous with that female cultivator, which made the Divine Maiden Great Sage realize his true colors and break up with him."
"So, Chang He is speaking up for a man from a humble background who has achieved success in his hometown and is also cheating on his wife, right?"
Ye Ning asked.
Although he didn't know what "phoenix man" meant, Lin Qinghua knew it wasn't a good term. He nodded fiercely, looking indignant.
At this moment, Ye Ning stood up.
Chang He was about to say something when Ye Ning slapped him hard across the face.
"Your mouth stinks, shut up."
The crisp sound of a slap rang out, stunning everyone.
