The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3134 - 3129: Princess Wenqi_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
Within the Divine Night Sect, even the role of a lowly maid would be far beyond their reach.
The entry requirements for the Divine Night Sect were incredibly steep, making it difficult to fathom. Whether as a servant, a maid, or even a simple gatekeeper, gaining entry was no casual feat.
Ji Yue Shuang had spoken the truth; if Yang Chen desired it, even Great Ascension stage cultivators could be assigned to him as maids.
What was the reason for this?
It was because the Divine Night Sect had once held an open recruitment for servants.
And what followed?
Those at the Great Ascension stage, realizing they lacked the talent to become official disciples, fought desperately for these servant positions. They understood that merely stepping foot into the sect could fundamentally elevate their social standing.
This mirrored the logic of those aspiring to be maids outside the Spirit Emperor City of the Divine Night Sect.
It was better to be a common fowl in a majestic land than a phoenix in a barren wasteland.
Given how brilliant Yang Chen was to be invited into the Divine Night Sect, would someone with his peerless talent ever spare them another thought?
"It’s just a personal habit of mine. I dislike constantly swapping the people by my side. I'll just have these two accompany me," Yang Chen remarked with a faint smile.
Ling Shuang and Chunyue, who had been feeling dejected, were struck dumb by his words, hardly daring to believe what they were hearing.
Was Yang Chen truly planning to bring them along into the Divine Night Sect?
Even Ji Yue Shuang felt a flicker of surprise, gaining a fresh perspective on Yang Chen’s character. She had initially assumed he was merely a man easily swayed by beautiful women and hadn't taken his previous comments seriously.
In the mortal world, it was common for men to be captivated by beauty; having Cultivated for so many years, she had grown indifferent to such trivialities.
However, Yang Chen appeared to be different from what she had imagined.
Since it wasn't a major issue, she spoke softly, "If Young Master Yang Chen insists, we shall make an exception. These two are now promoted to maids of the Divine Night Sect. Tell me, what are your names?"
With great excitement, Ling Shuang and Chunyue introduced themselves.
"Ling Shuang? Chunyue? Very well. Once you cross the threshold of the Divine Night Sect, ensure you serve Young Master Yang Chen with the utmost care. Should you fail, there are countless others eager to take your place. Do I make myself clear?" Ji Yue Shuang stated with a cold edge to her voice.
The two girls understood perfectly. They nodded vigorously, tears of joy welling in their eyes as they replied, "We thank Lady Ji for this chance. We will treasure it and serve Young Master Yang Chen faithfully."
"Good. Let us depart." Ji Yue Shuang turned her gaze back to Yang Chen, her icy expression gradually softening into a polite smile.
Yang Chen gave a nod and followed Ji Yue Shuang as they headed toward the Divine Night Sect.
The Divine Night Sect was situated at the Crescent Moon Summit, overlooking the Hundred Cities within the Shenyue plane.
This location was a physical manifestation of its supreme authority and the sect's dominance over this entire plane.
The Crescent Moon Summit was heavily patrolled. Even the lowest-ranking guards had attained the Boundaryless stage of Cultivation.
Furthermore, judging by the complexity of their Dao Intent Inscriptions, these Boundaryless experts were significantly more powerful than those found outside the sect's influence.
Among the ranks of these Boundaryless cultivators, there were even experts of the Sky-separating Realm.
Yang Chen was genuinely taken aback by the display of power.
The Divine Night Sect's foundation was terrifyingly deep if even their sentries were at the Sky-separating Realm. Despite being mere guards, their combat strength far exceeded others at the same level of Cultivation.
As the group approached the base of the Crescent Moon Summit, the guards moved to intercept them.
However, the moment they recognized Ji Yue Shuang leading the way, they bowed respectfully. "Lady Ji has returned. We shall open the Formation gate for you immediately."
"Proceed," she replied.
The attendants acted swiftly, swinging the massive main gates open.
Ji Yue Shuang showed a hint of friendliness toward the Sky-separating Realm guards, but she remained as cold as frost toward the Boundaryless cultivators.
With her robes fluttering in the wind, she led the way through the gates and into the heart of the Divine Night Sect.
Once inside, a breathtaking panorama revealed itself.
Soaring peaks, cascading waterfalls, and grand, majestic structures either floated in the clouds or stood tall in every direction. The sheer craftsmanship of the Divine Night Sect was enough to leave anyone in awe.
Yang Chen, having witnessed many grand sights throughout his travels, remained composed. Ling Shuang and Chunyue, however, struggled to maintain their dignity, their eyes wide with shock as they surveyed their surroundings.
"Sister Ji."
"Senior Sister Ji!"
Many disciples of the Divine Night Sect approached, greeting her with various titles of respect. Clearly, they were all members of the sect.
From the level of reverence they showed, it was obvious that Ji Yue Shuang held an exalted status within the sect, far above that of an ordinary disciple.
Meanwhile, many onlookers cast curious and varied glances at Yang Chen, noting his proximity to Ji Yue Shuang.
Yang Chen ignored the attention, calmly walking a step behind her.
Eventually, the pair reached the base of a specific mountain peak within the sect grounds.
"Lady Ji." An elderly man at the Great Ascension stage hurried forward to greet her with a bow.
"Is my Master available?" Ji Yue Shuang inquired in a cool tone.
"Princess Wenqi has been expecting your return, Lady Ji," the old man answered with a polite smile.
Ji Yue Shuang nodded. "Very well. I shall go up and speak with my Master. He San, see to it that our guests are looked after. If there is any lapse in hospitality, you will be held accountable."
He San, sensing the gravity of her command, bowed low. "I will ensure the Young Master is provided with the finest arrangements."
Turning to Yang Chen, Ji Yue Shuang said, "Young Master Yang Chen, I must report to my Master now. I will return for you shortly."
Yang Chen understood the protocol involved. After all, gaining an audience with a powerhouse of the Heavenly Extreme Realm was not a simple matter.
He gave a slight nod. "I understand."
After Ji Yue Shuang departed, He San approached with a fawning smile and said respectfully, "Young Master Yang Chen, if you would please follow me."
Ling Shuang and Chunyue looked at Yang Chen with profound admiration, fully aware that their respectful treatment within the Divine Night Sect was entirely due to his presence.
Under He San’s care, Yang Chen settled in at the foot of the peak for the time being.
Meanwhile, Ji Yue Shuang ascended to the summit. She soon reached the palace at the peak and announced herself respectfully, "Master, I have returned with the genius. Do you have a moment to grant him an audience?"
"Did I not already give my instructions? You may show him around the sect. Even if this youth is a talent listed on the Great Luo Celestial Stele, being hosted by our Divine Night Sect is already a great blessing for him. There is no need for me to appear in person. You seem to be overestimating your friend's importance." A graceful figure manifested within the palace. From her elegant silhouette and flowing hair, it was clear she was a beauty whose grace could put the moon and flowers to shame.
