Ye Chen, along with three subordinates, followed the old man in front of him through the huge manor that was like a maze.
Every few steps, you can see two powerful gods wearing Ling clan costumes, standing on the left and right.
Seeing them coming, he burst out with divine power and glared at Ye Chen and others, as if he was going to kill them the next moment.
Ye Chen naturally had no feelings about these things and walked forward calmly.
But Yue Wei, Li Mou and Yin Xia were in a miserable state.
Although the three of them are currently under Ye Chen's command and have obtained a large amount of resources, their current cultivation has reached the quasi-god realm and they are almost half a step away from a successful breakthrough. However, facing the pressure from these powerful people who are at least in the late stage of the Condensation Realm, they are still under tremendous pressure.
As they walked along, the three of them were already drenched in sweat.
"We're here. The Pulse Master and the Young Master are waiting for you inside."
The butler took Ye Chen around in circles and came to a small courtyard surrounded by flowers and plants, and motioned Ye Chen to go in.
By the time they got here, Yue Wei and the other two were almost exhausted. Each of them had a pale face, was covered in cold sweat, and was gasping for breath.
"good."
Ye Chen didn't say much, but walked straight into the courtyard.
After Ye Chen entered, he found that the courtyard was filled with horizontal tables, and there were people sitting behind each table.
Judging from their clothes, appearance and temperament, they are all rich or noble.
In the middle of the upper part, there were two horizontal tables. Sitting at the head was a middle-aged man in a green robe, and next to him sat a young man who looked to be in his twenties.
Ye Chen met everyone's gazes and walked into the courtyard leisurely. He bowed and smiled to the people around him and said, "I am Ye Chen, and I greet you all."
The green-robed man at the head looked at Ye Chen carefully with a gleam in his tiger eyes.
Seeing Ye Chen coming here so calmly, he couldn't help but look at the butler who led the way. The butler nodded slightly, indicating that he had done what the pulse master said.
The pulse master looked at the three subordinates following Ye Chen, who were sweating profusely and had pale faces, and his expression changed slightly.
Immediately, a smile appeared on his face, and he said loudly: "As expected of a young hero, he is indeed extraordinary!"
As he spoke, he called out to the people around him and continued, "Everyone has seen this, this is General Ye Chen, who conquered two cities of the Blazing Sun Divine Kingdom!"
Suddenly, people around started talking, and following the leader's words, they kept praising Ye Chen.
Faced with these praises, Ye Chen did not say anything, but continued to look at the other party calmly.
He slowly said, "I wonder why the Master of the Pulse has specially called me here today?"
"ah……"
The Pulse Master coughed lightly and smiled faintly, "No hurry, let's sit down and talk slowly. The main reason I invited these dignitaries here today is to welcome you."
Ye Chen nodded slightly, then walked to the seat on the left side near the leader of the meridians that was specially reserved for him, and slowly sat down.
Yue Wei, Li Mou and Yin Xia, his three subordinates, stood in unison behind him.
"General Ye Chen is truly good at managing his troops, and his subordinates are all disciplined!"
Sitting next to Ye Chen, a fat and big-eared wealthy businessman wearing a brocade robe flattered him.
"Yes, yes, only General Ye Chen's talent can protect the borders of my Xuanbing Divine Kingdom."
Someone else immediately echoed.
Then a few more people spoke up, all with meaningless flattery, but Ye Chen didn't pay much attention to them.
At this time, the pulse master in the main seat clapped his hands, and eight graceful and pretty young women, wearing scanty dance dresses, walked into the middle of the courtyard and danced gracefully to the light and melodious music.
Singing and dancing suddenly began, and everyone present was almost completely immersed in the graceful singing and dancing.
Even the women were immersed in it with an obsessed look on their faces.
Ye Chen took it all in calmly. He discovered that this musician was no ordinary person. It seemed that the music possessed some magical power that could make people unconsciously immersed in it.
The same was true for the eight dancers. Each of them possessed the cultivation of a demigod. It seemed they were not practicing for combat, but simply to perfect their dance...
Ye Chen couldn't help but marvel inwardly. It must have taken a lot of effort and resources to cultivate such a person.
In the eyes of some noble and powerful people, the value of any one of them is no less than a divine treasure.
Not long after, the dance ended, and the guests were still immersed in the dance, intoxicated.
"cough……"
The pulse master coughed lightly, and everyone suddenly woke up and praised the dance music.
The wealthy businessman sitting at the table next to Ye Chen was drooling as he watched the eight dancers.
His eyes gleamed as he looked at the leader of the meridians above him, and he said excitedly, "I didn't expect that the leader of the meridians still had such a top-grade item hidden. I am willing to offer a divine-level treasure in exchange for one with you. I hope the leader of the meridians will give it to you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a lean middle-aged man with a long mustache sneered at him, "Fatty Qian, I think you shouldn't waste your efforts. This rare treasure must have been carefully cultivated by the master. Even letting you see it would be a blessing for three lifetimes. You still want the master to give it up? What a foolish dream!"
The wealthy businessman known as 'Fatty Qian' gritted his teeth and looked at the master of the pulse and said, "Master, I'm offering two divine-level treasures. I hope you can give me one of your dancers."
The pulse master chuckled and said, "Old Qian, it's not that I don't give you face, but I want to give these eight dancers and musicians to General Ye Chen as a reward. If you really want them, then go and ask Ye Chen for them."
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene suddenly became lively.
"What? Did I hear it right? The leader wants to give all these eight dancers and musicians to Ye Chen???"
"The Vein Master actually favors Ye Chen so much, this kid is going to be rich!"
"This boy is only a cultivator in the Condensation Realm. What merits and virtues could make the Vein Master think so highly of him?"
“…”
Amidst the noisy discussions and envious gazes from all around, Ye Chen stood up and bowed to the leader of the clan above, saying, "Thank you for your kindness, Lord. However, I do not accept gifts without merit. I dare not accept these dancers and musicians."
Karma?
When everyone heard this, the discussions in the room stopped abruptly, and everyone looked at Ye Chen with strange eyes.
This kid must be stupid. How could he refuse the reward from the Pulse Master?
Even the smile on the pulse master's face froze at this moment. After gazing at Ye Chen deeply for a moment, he said lightly: "No one has ever refused something given by this master. Ye Chen, you are the first one."
As he spoke, the Pulse Master sneered, and then added: "Since General Ye Chen doesn't like beautiful women, then this master will give this thing to you."
As soon as this thing appeared, the temperature of the surrounding space dropped sharply.
