Chapter 12535 Threats and Unexpected Events

Chapter 12535 Threats and Unexpected Events

Xiao He, who was about to count down to the last number, was also stunned when he saw a spatial vortex suddenly appear. He asked, "Yu Shen?"

He clearly realized that it was Yu Shen who had secretly made the move.

Without a second thought, Ye Chen immediately entered the spatial vortex and teleported away.

If he doesn't leave soon, Xiao He will definitely cause trouble.

He was holding Xiyue in his arms and taking care of her, so he was no match for Xiao He.

If Xi Yue were abandoned, without her help to alleviate the Heavenly Tribulation, Ye Chen's tribulation fire would be immediately ignited by the Separation Technique, and he might even perish.

Moreover, he couldn't let go of Xi Yue either.

With a spatial tremor and a dizzying spin, Ye Chen was instantly transported to a desolate island.

Beyond the island lies a vast blue ocean teeming with yin and yang energy, known as the Yin-Yang Star Sea. Centered on the island, the surrounding area for dozens of miles is bathed in sunshine.

But the sea area dozens of miles away was pitch black.

It was nighttime, but the island was bathed in sunlight, which was quite strange.

Ye Chen glanced at it and immediately realized that someone had used special spatial laws to imprison the sunlight, leaving it behind and turning the island into a world of eternal daylight, where even when darkness descends outside, it remains radiant.

"Big brother, where is this..."

Xi Yue looked at the island with some surprise.

Ye Chen put her down, looked into the depths of the island, and said, "Senior Yu Shen, did you save me? Please come out and meet me."

He could already sense a hidden yet powerful aura deep within the island—the aura of the God of the Universe!

This powerful aura was hidden in the folds of space, and even a Heavenly Dao Realm expert might not be able to detect it. However, Ye Chen inherited the lineage of the God of the Universe and was extremely sensitive to the aura of the God of the Universe, so he caught it immediately.

"hehe."

A laugh of unknown meaning came from deep within the island.

Then, the space shifted, and Ye Chen and Xi Yue saw two people appear out of thin air in a flash.

Xi Yue was very nervous and gripped Ye Chen's arm tightly.

She clearly saw that the space of the island had undergone a strange change in a short moment. The space was cut into countless small cubes, some of which were swapped between the inside and outside of the island. Then the space shifted, and the person who was originally deep in the island appeared in front of her as if out of thin air.

Ye Chen also clearly saw that this method of spatial switching was quite similar to the Sun and Moon Changing the Sky Technique, but it was much more sophisticated.

The two people in front of them, one of whom was Yu Shen, was dressed in a white robe and had a handsome appearance. There were some small, protruding, constantly twisting black cubes around his body, like small Rubik's Cubes stacked around him, which inexplicably made people feel a little scared.

Ye Chen could clearly see that there were many small black cubes, each containing a powerful ferocious beast, and some of them were even demon gods from outside the world!
And standing next to Yu Shen was none other than Su Wujiu!

Previously, Ye Chen had severely injured Su Wujiu and even nearly killed him.

Unfortunately, at the last moment, Su Wujiu escaped using spatial escape techniques.

It turns out that he had actually escaped to Yu Shen's side!
Judging from Su Wujiu's current appearance, his aura has been fully restored, and he is looking at Ye Chen with resentful eyes.

"Su Wujiu, so you were here all along."

Ye Chen frowned, but he couldn't sense any danger from Su Wujiu.

Just a defeated general.

The real danger is the God of Space!
Although Yu Shen had a faint smile on his lips at this moment, that smile made Ye Chen very uneasy. Xi Yue also held his arm tightly, clearly sensing the danger Yu Shen was in.

“I have some connections with Emperor Jinyu. Wujiu is one of Emperor Jinyu’s subordinates. He has come to the Yin-Yang Star Sea, so I have to take care of him. Lord of Reincarnation, I hope you won’t take offense.”

Yu Shen smiled slightly and explained to Ye Chen.

"Don't dare."

Ye Chen cupped his hands slightly in greeting.

Yu Shen smiled again and said, "I know that you and Emperor Jin Yu have broken ties."

"However, I will not interfere in your disputes."

"My relationship with Emperor Jinyu is merely one of trade. He provides me with some rare and precious materials needed for cultivation, but that's about it."

Hearing Yu Shen's explanation, Ye Chen hummed in agreement and nodded slightly, but he remained vigilant and dared not be careless in the slightest.

Because he inherited the lineage of the God of the Universe, the God of the Universe would never let him go easily.

If the situation hadn't been so dangerous just now, he wouldn't have been able to step into the territory of the God of the Universe.

This is like escaping one tiger's den only to fall into another.

"Lord of Reincarnation, I just saved your life, shouldn't you repay me?"

Yu Shen smiled and directly asked Ye Chen for a reward.

Ye Chen immediately felt an immense pressure.

Xi Yue, who had been silent until now, suddenly snorted, mustered her courage, stepped forward, and looked at Yu Shen:
"Are you threatening your older brother?"

"Who asked you to save me? Even without you, with my strength, I could have escaped on my own."

"Besides, I just summoned Sister Ni Chang to descend. Even without you, my older brother and I will be fine!"

She sensed that Yu Shen had ill intentions and was worried that Ye Chen would be taken advantage of, so she decided to protect Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was taken aback and looked at Xi Yue. So she had also called for help earlier?

"presumptuous!"

"Little girl, how dare you speak to Lord Yu Shen like that?"

Upon seeing this, Su Wujiu shouted at Xi Yue.

Xi Yue was stubborn, puffing out her chest and cheeks, but she did not back down.

Yu Shen raised his hand, gesturing for Su Wujiu to step back, then narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Xi Yue, and said:

"Sister Ni Chang? Ni Chang-kun from the Temple of the End?"

"Hmm, I heard that Lady Ni Chang recently took on a new apprentice, which must be you."

"Hehe, I never would have guessed, little girl, that you are the daughter of the Lord of Reincarnation and the Goddess of Love."

"Your physique is very special, it can be said to be one in a million, unprecedented. You are the offspring born from the union of two pillar gods. Tsk tsk, it's really incredible!"

"Pillar Gods can actually produce offspring!"

He let out a sound of admiration. Ye Chen held many divine powers, so he could naturally be called a pillar god.

Feng Qingxue is also a pillar god.

The union of two pillar gods, and even the birth of offspring, is something unprecedented in history.

Because the Pillar Gods have the Great Calamity of Burning Heaven within them, if two Pillar Gods were to unite, the calamity's flames would ignite and be enough to annihilate the Pillar Gods, let alone allow them to have offspring.

Feng Qingxue and Tianzu are a famous couple among the seventy-two pillar gods, but in reality, they have never been physically united. They only communicated spiritually and have never even held hands.

Because the Heaven-Burning Calamity of the Pillar Gods is too terrifying, if two Pillar Gods come into close contact, they will probably explode on the spot.

"What? My daughter? You recognized her?"

Ye Chen's heart pounded as he stared at Yu Shen in disbelief.

Is Xiyue his daughter?
Yu Shen laughed and said, "What's wrong? You're too caught up in it to see it yourself?"

"Hehe, your daughter looks so much like you, and there's an aura of blood connection between you. Outsiders can tell at a glance that you are undoubtedly father and daughter."

Upon hearing this, Xi Yue also found it unbelievable. She took Ye Chen's hand, looked at Ye Chen's face, and then looked at Yu Shen, saying, "Am I my older brother's daughter? Is he the daughter he had with the God of Love?"

"But my mother is Oni-hime, not Cupid."

"Ghost Blade Princess?" Yu Shen smiled and said, "I've heard that among the Eight Underworld Gods, both the Asura Prison Lord and Ghost Blade Princess have pledged allegiance to the Temple of the End."

"However, Oni-hime was unlucky and died in the Temple of the End."

"It seems that her body was traded to the Great Goddess of Love, Feng Qingxue."

"This happened a few days ago. The transaction was witnessed at a gold auction, which I had heard about."

"Your mother probably merged with the lineage of Ghost Blade Princess, so she looks like Ghost Blade Princess, but in reality, she is Feng Qingxue, the Goddess of Love, Feng Qingxue!"

“Little girl, you have the aura of the God of Love within you, I cannot be mistaken.”

"This aura of compassion, benevolence, and gentleness is the intention to care for all living beings, and there is no doubt about it! Only she could possess such supreme and transcendent compassion!"

"Although she herself suffered from the Great Calamity of Burning Heaven and never reached that realm, her path is not wrong! Her lineage and her path of great love have manifested in you, which is truly incredible!"

As he finished speaking, Yu Shen's voice became increasingly full of praise, and when he mentioned Feng Qingxue, his eyes showed a great deal of admiration.

That was not an admiration based on romantic love, but an admiration born of seeking the Tao.

He also acknowledged Feng Qingxue's philosophy of great love.

Ye Chen was shocked; his mind went blank, buzzing.

It's Feng Qingxue, I love the goddess Feng Qingxue so much!
Xi Yue's mother is Feng Qingxue, not Gui Dao Ji!
Feng Qingxue absorbed and merged with the Daoist lineage of Guidaoji, which is why she appears to be Guidaoji, but her core is great love, and that will not change.

Ye Chen, however, was too caught up in the situation to see through Xi Yue's true identity.

Feng Qingxue's fusion with Guidaoji's lineage was only a few days ago, but she has been living in seclusion in a special place where the laws of time are different from those of the outside world.

So in just a few days, her daughter, whom she was pregnant with, had already grown to be ten years old.

Ye Chen was shocked. His head spun from the excitement, and he couldn't speak.

Xi Yue was also stunned, looking at Ye Chen and murmuring, "Ah, is big brother really my father?"

"My mother is the goddess of love, not the Demon Blade Princess? But why would she lie to me?"

She was confused and didn't understand why her mother was hiding and deceiving her.

Yu Shen laughed and said, "Isn't the Star Sea Fate Orbit Chart in your hands? As long as you take out the chart and deduce your fate, the trajectory of your past fate will be clearly revealed."

“That’s right!” Xi Yue said to Ye Chen, “Big brother, hurry up and take out the star chart!”

Ye Chen's body trembled slightly, and he was also eager to know whether he and Xi Yue were father and daughter.

His gaze fell upon the Reincarnation Graveyard, where he saw the Coral Sea Nightmare Beast being suppressed by the Ice and Snow Manifestation, unable to move.

The Coral Sea Nightmare Beast, having detonated its demon core, was already extremely weak. Even without the suppression of the Ice and Snow Metamorphosis, it probably wouldn't be able to cause any trouble.

Ye Chen grabbed the Coral Sea Nightmare Beast's body and pulled out a star chart from its belly—the Star Sea Fate Chart.

The Coral Sea Nightmare Beast's belly was ripped open, but it didn't utter a sound; it was too weak and was on the verge of death.

Ye Chen took out the Star Sea Fate Orbit Disc. The entire disc was crystal clear, forged from blue Dao Crystals, and was extremely pure. It was taken out of the belly of the Coral Sea Nightmare Beast and was not stained with a drop of blood.

Strands of starlight float on the astrolabe, subtly forming paths of destiny.

The trajectory of a person's destiny can actually be predicted. The stars in the sky reflect the human world, and by deducing the trajectory of the stars, one can indirectly glimpse a person's fate.

This is the principle of astrology.

The Starry Sky Destiny Chart contains the trajectories of countless stars, which can be used to predict various aspects of a person's destiny. By altering the trajectories of the stars, it is even possible to change the trajectory of a person's destiny!

Ye Chen and Xi Yue exchanged a glance, nodded in tacit agreement, and then nervously swallowed. They placed their palms on the star chart, one large hand on top of the other, releasing spiritual energy.

Both of them were thinking about the same question:
Are we father and daughter?
The two people's will and spiritual energy activated the star chart, which immediately began to click and slowly rotate. Starlight flowed, and a dark blue divine light floated. Trajectories of fate began to intertwine, converging into a series of images, which then dissipated like smoke.

Those scenes depict Ye Chen and Feng Qingxue, loving each other for eternity.

After that, the two parted ways, and Feng Qingxue wandered alone on Yin Yang Tianzhou.

The scene shifts again, and Feng Qingxue is now dressed in a black gauze dress shrouded in ghostly energy, with a sword at her waist and holding a baby girl in her arms.

Ye Chen felt as if he had been struck by lightning. This was clearly because she had merged with the Daoist lineage of Ghost Blade Princess. Her attire had changed, but her face and her eyes remained the same; she still looked like Feng Qingxue.

The tender look in her eyes as she gazed at the baby girl, the gentle warmth of maternal love, deeply moved Ye Chen, leaving him speechless with emotion.

He and Feng Qingxue were in love for ten thousand years. That dream had come true, and Feng Qingxue even became pregnant and gave birth to a daughter.

"I have a daughter now, she is my daughter!"

A thought was exploding in Ye Chen's mind as he looked at Xi Yue with tenderness, affection, and joy.

Unlike Fu Jin, Xi Yue was his blood relative, his true daughter by blood. This feeling of blood connection was very strange. It was the first time in Ye Chen's life that he had felt this way. He felt as if he was full of power, but at the same time, he had a huge fear of losing her.

He began to understand Tianzu somewhat. Tianzu was cowardly and dared not raise his sword against the gods because he had lost Feng Qingxue.

When a person has a weakness, they can be manipulated by others.

However, while I can understand, given Ye Chen's personality, there's no way he could be as cowardly as Tian Zu.

He would absolutely draw his sword if anyone dared to threaten his daughter!
To give his daughter a better life, he would also draw his sword. Cowardice and retreat cannot truly protect those around you. Only courage, the courage to draw your blade against the stronger, is the true meaning of protection!

Xi Yue stared blankly at the image on the star chart. In the end, the image on the star chart froze on a young man and a little girl.

The young man held the little girl's hand.

It was Ye Chen who was holding Xi Yue's hand.

The horoscope seemed to act as a mirror, projecting Ye Chen and Xi Yue's current state onto it.

As they gazed at the final image on the astrological chart, both were deeply moved. A profound connection seemed to run through them; they could hear each other's thoughts, and only one sentence remained:

"We are father and daughter!"

"Big brother..." Xi Yue called out, then shook her head and changed her words, "Father... Father."

The first time she called him "Dad," her voice sounded somewhat awkward and nervous.

"Ok!"

Ye Chen nodded emphatically, wanting to pick up Xi Yue and spin her around a few times, but he couldn't do so because Yu Shen and Su Wujiu were present.

Su Wujiu still looked full of resentment, while Yu Shen had a gentle expression and smiled slightly:

"Lord of Reincarnation, congratulations on your reunion as father and daughter."

"Then, please relinquish the divine authority of the God of the Universe."

He finally spoke, demanding the divine authority of the god of the universe.

Ye Chen said in a deep voice, "What?"

Yu Shen said, "I rescued you and your daughter from Xiao He's clutches and even helped you recognize each other."

"In fact, I won't fight you for the Star Sea Fate Disk; you can have it if you want."

"I only want the authority of the God of the Universe! That was originally mine!"

"Time and space are one; you should understand that!"

He stared at Ye Chen, and by the end, his tone had become stern.

Xi Yue gripped Ye Chen's hand tightly and said to Yu Shen, "Heh, so you really wanted to force your big brother. Who asked you to save him?"

She still habitually called Ye Chen "Big Brother," and although she had just changed her address to "Dad," she was now calling him by his original name.

"I'm warning you, Sister Ni Chang is coming soon, so don't be arrogant."

"Even if you are a pillar god, in Yin Yang Tian Zhou, you may not be a match for Sister Ni Chang."

Under the constraints of the rules of heaven and earth and the Pillar God Contract, the strength that the Pillar God can exert on the other side of the starry sky will not exceed the peak of the Heavenly Dao Realm.

However, because the seventy-two pillar gods all possess various incredible laws and supernatural abilities, their true combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary Heavenly Dao Realm experts.

However, the situation in Yin Yang Heavenly Continent is different. The strong individuals born on Yin Yang Heavenly Continent bear the power of the Yin Yang Great Dao, which can exert a kind of suppression on the Pillar God, much like a bloodline effect.

Xi Yue thought that even Yu Shen might not be a match for Ni Chang Jun on Yin Yang Tian Zhou.

But Yu Shen chuckled and said, "Among the eight true disciples of the End God Temple, if it were a top-three powerhouse like Li Yejun, I might be a little wary."

“But Ni Chang-jun is only the weakest of the true disciples; she is no match for me.”

"Don't be so arrogant, little girl."

"Don't force me to cut off your hands and feet."

By the end, Yu Shen's words carried a hint of intimidation.
