Chapter: 123
🕑 Added 2023-06-30 16:03:53 +0000 UTCThe two people in front exuded an air of arrogance and disdain as they looked at the disciples of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region, arrogantly walking in front of Yun Che before stopping.
"Heavenly Monarch Ye Meixie has come to congratulate the Supreme Overlord—"
"Stop with that stupid title." Yun Che raised his hand and halted the old man from continuing. "If you really want to use a title, then Realm King sounds more pleasing."
"You…" Ye Meixie was about to rebuke Yun Che before he noticed the robes he was wearing—robes that only a king would wear—and his expression quickly turned humble. "Realm King it is then. It is my honor to meet you, senior. I cannot describe how happy I feel right now."
"Then don't." Yun Che dismissively waved his hand. For some reason, he didn't like the old man at all. He didn't know why, but the dislike seemed to be stamped from his memories regarding the Sun Moon Divine Hall.
"A-ahem." Meixie quickly coughed to remove the awkwardness before a smile returned to his face as he pushed the young man beside him forward. "This is my son, the brightest talent of our Sun Moon Divine Hall. He is young but has already achieved the strength of Level Eight of the Divine Realm!"
"Right…" Yun Che stared at the smiling young man with no particular expression, obviously unimpressed by whatever Meixie stated.
Not bothered by Yun Che's uninterested reply, Meixie continued.
"Come, Xinghan, greet the senior."
"Ye Xinghan greets the senior."
"Senior, Xinghan is such a bright talent. If you—"
"Wentian." Yun Che interrupted him and called the ex-Sword Master who teleported beside him, stunning the father-son duo. "Guide them. Also, place them at the far end. I don't like their faces."
"..."
"As you wish, my lord." Wentian bowed before giving the father-son duo a side glance filled with contempt and disdain. "Follow me. My lord doesn't seem to like you, so you better not anger him anymore."
"I-I…" Meixie didn't know what to say. And finding the disciple of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region chuckling and sneering in his way, his face flushed red instantly.
But he controlled his anger.
Bowing to Yun Che, he called the people behind before following Wentian, soon vanishing in the main hall.
"Guide other guests to the main hall once they arrive." His goal was to check with other Sacred Grounds. And now that he was done, he didn't bother greeting any further guests personally. They were only lower grunts anyway.
'Though I should have invited the Divine Phoenix Sect too… But oh well. I'm going to visit them for the ark anyway. So it won't be long to meet them.' He internally thought. 'I should attend the wedding now before my dear wives get impatient. Though I'm sure they already are by now.'
Chuckling to himself, he also walked towards the main hall to attend the wedding ceremony.

The wedding ceremony was done without any problems.
Every girl wore phoenix robes with slight custom touches as they stood beside Yun Che, smiling widely to show their happiness as they bowed towards the elders and heavens.
Yun Che found all of that extremely fake, but he still didn't say anything. It was the custom of the world he lived in. And even if he didn't like it, the least he could do was keep his mouth shut and follow it…
Well, at least his wives seemed to love it.
After the wedding, the girls were brought into the room—'single room,' Yun Che internally added—while Yun Che was left in the main hall with all the guests present.
Standing in a high position, Yun Che looked at everyone with a big smile.
"I am happy that everyone has come to attend my marriage from such a distance. As such, it doesn't benefit me to let everyone leave without giving anything in return, right?"
"You must be joking, senior. We dare not ask anything of you." Ye Meixie laughed loudly and raised the glass of wine in his hand high. "We are honored just to see you today and be part of this joyous occasion."
"Brother Meixie is right, Your Majesty. We already feel honored to be invited to today's beautiful occasion. We dare not ask for more." Huangji Wuyu nodded his head after Ye Meixie.
"They are right. In fact, if it is not presumptuous of us, we would like to make a request. I wonder if you are willing to visit our Supreme Ocean Palace? There is a place I would like you to check."
"Devil Nest." An expression of realization appeared on Yun Che's face. He had completely forgotten about that place.
'I can't believe I forgot about that place… Oh well, now I remember.'
"You know about it, Senior? As expected of you," Qu Fengyi nodded impressed. "Then I wonder what your thoughts are about it? Can you solve the mystery regarding the nest?"
"Hm, yes. It's not hard," Yun Che replied absentmindedly. He was wondering if he could learn the Law of Nothingness himself.
'My language skill is maxed… so maybe?'
"Really!" A happy expression appeared on Fengyi's face as she joyfully continued. "Then I request you to visit our Supreme Ocean Palace to solve the Devil Nest. Shamefully, it is getting harder and harder for our Ocean Palace to control the extreme yin energies from the Devil Nest. At this rate, it will soon break through the seal around it and spread throughout the Sky Profound Palace. We should avoid such scenarios at all costs."
"Don't worry. I will visit that place soon. For now, let's not change the topic. As I was saying, it is my utmost happiness that everyone has joined me today for my wedding. So allow me to share some beautiful news!"
"News?"
Everyone stared at Yun Che with focused gazes, waiting for him to continue.
"Yes." The smile on Yun Che's face widened as he opened his arms wide and loudly announced, "From today onwards, every Sacred Ground shall fall under the leadership of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region. Anyone who goes against my order shall be executed immediately."

Silence filled the main hall as no one dared to say a single word.
No, it wasn't that no one dared to speak, but no one knew how to react to Yun Che's news, delivered with a devilish smirk on his face.
It made their minds go blank, and they could only stare at Yun Che with confused and bewildered gazes.
"... Sorry?" Huangji Wuyu muttered, confused as if he didn't understand what he just heard.
"Was I not clear?" the black-haired youth tilted his head slightly before replying with the same happy expression. "I said, from today onwards, all other Sacred Grounds shall fall under the rule of the Mighty Heavenly Sword Region."
"Oh!" As if he just remembered something, his black gaze focused on them as he added, "And all the leaders, including the elders, shall have my Soul Imprint on them. Otherwise, please forget about leaving this place alive today."
Once again, silence enveloped everything until Meixie spoke.
"This must be a joke." His expression had turned ugly, and one could sense anger in his eyes for being told to become a slave to someone.
"And who said so?" Yun Che looked at him. "Did I say it's a joke?"
"Presumptuous!" Ye Meixie angrily stood up and glared at Yun Che. "Never has anyone spok—"
"Pha!"
"...," He couldn't finish his sentence before his body burst into a bloody mist and scattered everywhere.
Everyone felt their hearts tighten.
That was a peak Sovereign Profound Realm cultivator! For Yun Che to kill him without even lifting a finger, it told everyone that he could kill everyone there as easily as he did Meixie.
"I have tolerated him enough…" Yun Che sighed before he looked towards Meixie's son.
"I- I accept—" He couldn't finish his sentence either before his body also turned to a bloody mist and scattered.
"Sorry, I just don't like you, father-son duo," Yun Che shrugged his shoulders before looking back at everyone. "Oh well. Does anyone else have anything to add? No? That's good."
Why would anyone say anything now? They all knew they could not reject him. So they all decided to remain quiet. It was better than losing their lives.
"Well, no need to be so down. Since you guys will be becoming my people, I will obviously make sure you guys break through the Sovereign Profound Realm and enter the Divine Realm."
Everyone's expressions instantly brightened.
They obviously could not tolerate being Yun Che's slaves, but if it allowed them to enter the Divine Realm and break through the shackles of the mortal realm, they were even willing to clean and lick his feet for it!
"See? It wasn't that hard…" Yun Che smiled. With this, he solved pretty much all the problems on the Sky Profound Continent.
Now it was time to wait for the ark to appear so he could finally meet his weapons!
...
Next Chapter will be around Phoenix Empire and Profound Ark and then we are finished with Sky Profound Continent.
Also, Happy Eid to everyone. I missed chapter yesterday because of Eid XD
