Shock!
The Primordial Female Saint Lord was utterly stunned. The supreme aura she had been preparing to release froze in place. Her bright, autumn-water-like eyes stared fixedly at the youth who was so close, not daring to move a muscle.
Qian Yue!?
Her delicate frame trembled with an indescribable excitement. She gazed intently at this mysterious powerhouse, as if trying to pierce through Ye Chen's mind and see his very soul.
And at that moment, Ye Chen smiled. He gently embraced the supple, boneless willow-like waist of this most peerless Female Saint Lord of the Myriad Domains. Their bodies fit together perfectly.
Simultaneously, the light of his Primordial Spirit blossomed from between his brows, shining as brightly as a small sun. He actively released his origin, opening it up to the Primordial Female Saint Lord—his beloved wife from his past life, the one who had loved him so deeply, so completely.
Buzz—
The Primordial Female Saint Lord's delicate body trembled lightly. She could clearly feel that origin aura, so familiar it seemed to come from the soul itself, so special, so cherished, something she could never forget for all eternity.
It was him. It was truly him. That detestable man who had abandoned them all, who had died alone, leaving them to think of him day and night, often weeping in their dreams.
She had thought he was dead. Who could have imagined he had returned?
And now he appeared before her eyes, his smile so warm.
Familiar origin, familiar address. She stood there in a daze. Tears continuously fell from her phoenix-like eyes, which held the essence of autumn springs, dampening her robes. Pear blossoms in the rain. This forceful Female Saint Lord possessed a fragile beauty that evoked pity, something unprecedented.
Ye Chen smiled faintly, holding her delicate form tightly, wanting to completely fuse her into his own body, to cherish and protect her properly.
But at least not now. There were still others present.
He lowered his head and gently kissed the peerless Divine Maiden's alluring, dewy red lips, which held the sweetest fragrance in the world.
Stunned!
Everyone was dumbfounded. The expected scene of Ye Chen being blasted away by the Primordial Female Saint Lord did not occur. On the contrary, the youth had actually kissed the Divine Maiden's cherry lips, shattering the hearts of countless young Talents and leaving everyone utterly shocked.
Wasn't the Primordial Female Saint Lord the beloved wife of the deceased Battle Saint King Qian? Why was she kissing this youth? Had she transferred her affections?
But earlier, the Primordial Female Saint Lord had been so intensely concerned about Qian's saintly remains.
Just what was going on?
Although the idea that Ye Chen was the reincarnation of the Battle Saint King was actually quite simple, who could have imagined that the Battle Saint King from over forty years ago hadn't died at all, but had defied the heavens, reincarnated, and embarked on the Samsara cycle?
It was precisely because of all this that everyone was stunned, utterly unable to imagine the fact that Ye Chen had not truly perished.
"You detestable man..."
The Primordial Female Saint Lord laughed and cried at the same time, weeping for joy. Yet the next moment, she broke free from Ye Chen's embrace. Her jade-like hand swung out—*smack!*—an incredibly loud sound, leaving a bright red palm print on Ye Chen's right cheek.
The crowd remained in a state of continuous shock.
Ye Chen smiled bitterly. This peerless Goddess's way of greeting him was as uniquely special as ever, leaving him quite helpless.
The Primordial Female Saint Lord, pear blossoms in the rain, now revealed a radiant smile that instantly dimmed the heavens and earth, incomparable, possessing a kind of peerless enchantment that could make any man in the world sink into her gentle embrace.
She beckoned to Ye Chen with her fair hand and said, "Little brother, have you forgotten? God said, if your left cheek is struck, you should offer your right cheek as well."
Ye Chen's face immediately fell. But at that moment, an intoxicatingly fragrant breeze suddenly wafted over. Before he could react, the Goddess's flawless, peerlessly beautiful face rapidly enlarged before his eyes. He only felt a warm, soft fragrance enter his lips, sweet, smooth, and delicious, causing his mind to go completely blank!
Ye Chen felt his entire being go numb, his mind a complete void, with nothing else except the sweet fragrance entering his lips, leaving a lingering taste he was reluctant to let go of.
But this feeling vanished in an instant. The Goddess left his embrace. She, who had always been peerlessly enchanting, now actually wore a shy blush on her lovely face, with not a trace of her former coquettishness, making his heart pound rapidly.
The Primordial Female Saint Lord at this moment was clearly like a young girl experiencing love for the first time, her brows shy, her cheeks rosy, bashful and captivating.
"Jingruo-jie, I..." Ye Chen opened his mouth to speak, but the Primordial Female Saint Lord gave him a light push. A gentle force sent him towards the very top of the pyramid. A voice, entwined with fragrance, was transmitted over: "Little brother, go on. Don't waste time."
Ye Chen nodded, entering the sphere of divine radiance and disappearing within it, saying, "Jingruo-jie, please guard me for a moment. I need to recover."
"Alright!"
At this moment, the Primordial Female Saint Lord regained her originally forceful demeanor. She looked down upon the various overlords, standing proudly in the air above the pyramid altar. A supreme aura surged forth as she slowly spoke: "Anyone who wishes to act must first pass through me."
The pyramid altar was as tall as a mountain, majestic and grand, constructed from ancient bronze. No one knew from what era it had been built; it was exceedingly ancient.
Ye Chen climbed swiftly, step by step, ascending to the very summit of the pyramid altar.
"We cannot let that kid succeed in reaching that place. Everyone, attack!"
The various overlords naturally could not just stand by and watch Ye Chen ascend step by step to the supreme pyramid altar. They immediately took action. Vast swathes of divine brilliance flooded the sky, causing the firmament to tremble and the void to shatter.
But at this very moment, the Primordial Female Saint Lord stood horizontally in the air. Her entire being was like a supreme empress standing aloft, looking down upon the various heroes. An invincible divine might erupted, directly tearing a massive, pitch-black rift in the void, which voraciously swallowed all the attacks from the powerful figures, devouring everything completely.
"Little brother, hurry and reach the ancient altar. I will hold them off for you," the Primordial Female Saint Lord transmitted via voice transmission. Yet her entire person was domineering. At this moment, her body even began to glow with radiant light, her spirit like autumn water, her bones like crystal jade. A vast, boundless divine might surged forth, isolating the firmament as she stood imposingly in the air.
"Kill!"
With a fierce cry, she took the initiative to attack. She even activated the Great Dao Treasure Vessel Seal, unleashing endless streams of Great Dao radiance that flooded everything in sight, something unprecedented.
And at this very moment, Ye Chen was on the pyramid altar, standing alone. He had entered that faint sphere of light. Before the saintly remains, a strange glint appeared in his eyes.
Looking at this withered, desiccated saintly skeleton, he gave a self-mocking laugh and whispered softly, "To think that in this life, I would face the corpse of my past self like this. How ironic."
"But never mind. Now is the time I need to use you... my past life."
