"Three elders, you called for me!" Jiang Chen remained composed as he walked slowly into the grand hall, his gaze falling upon the three elders not far away. "I heard that you have accepted Yan Ruyu as a follower?" The three elders turned around slowly, looking at Jiang Chen as they asked. The three elders appeared very young, with slender bodies and fair, jade-like skin that had a warm glow. There were no traces left by the passage of time. They wore white Daoist robes, giving off an ethereal and refined aura. With long white hair and eyes that seemed to see through the mortal world, it was evident that the three elders were not young. "Yes." "I saw that Yan Ruyu has good aptitude, so I accepted her." "And now you don't have to worry about urging me to take on followers anymore!" Jiang Chen said with a smile.
Normally, prodigies with some reputation would have countless followers under their command, even if it was just a few. But Jiang Chen had no followers at all. He was used to being alone, and he didn't like having people follow him. It wasn't that no one wanted to follow him, but Jiang Chen simply didn't want any. If Jiang Chen really wanted to, with a wave of his hand, countless people would follow him. Just the title of Holy Son of Absolute Beginning would cause a huge sensation. This was due to his fame and background. "We have no objections to you accepting Yan Ruyu!" "We even hope that you will accept more followers!" "But you should be careful about Yan Ruyu's identity. The Saintess of the Hehuan Sect is not simple!" "Don't let yourself be manipulated!" The three elders laughed and scolded. Jiang Chen had grown up under the watchful eyes of the high-ranking members of the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning, and his character had won their hearts. Mainly because he didn't do anything too outrageous. They didn't really care! And being able to accept a prodigy like Yan Ruyu naturally made them very happy. But Yan Ruyu's identity was somewhat unique, which was why the three elders came to remind him. "You can rest assured about this, Elder." "Yan Ruyu is pure and untainted, even though she is the Saintess of the Hehuan Sect, she is different from the others in the sect!"
It was hard to say about others. But when it came to Yan Ruyu, Jiang Chen could vouch for her. If we were to talk about who believed in Jiang Chen the most in the entire novel. It would definitely be Yan Ruyu. Even her own cheap master probably didn't trust Jiang Chen as much as Yan Ruyu did. It could be said that anyone could betray Jiang Chen, except Yan Ruyu. Even though Yan Ruyu had been injured by Jiang Chen several times in the original work, she still cared for him. It was for this reason that Yan Ruyu never gained the trust of Dugu Yun in the original work. Intentionally or unintentionally, Dugu Yun kept Yan Ruyu away from him. And Yan Ruyu didn't mind. "You seem very confident about her!" "I remember that you didn't have much contact with her!" "If I didn't know you, I would suspect that you were being controlled by Yan Ruyu!" The three elders were extremely surprised. It was not easy for Jiang Chen to say such a confident statement. Even the former Ye Qingcheng didn't receive such treatment. "I can't reveal this. As long as the three elders believe in me, that's enough!" Jiang Chen said with a smile. "It's good that you have confidence, and as for the matters between you young people, it's up to you to decide. We won't interfere!" "But now that you have accepted Yan Ruyu, what about Qingcheng?" "I heard that you have given up on Qingcheng?" The three elders said. Ah. Jiang Chen sighed and said helplessly, "Elders, they say that love grows over time, that constant dripping wears away the stone. I treated Ye Qingcheng wholeheartedly for such a long time, even a stone would probably have awakened, but she hasn't changed at all. Instead, she has become more disgusted with me. I don't know why."
"In this case, I might as well give up!" "Sometimes, making a choice is a good thing. By letting go of myself, I am also letting go of her!" "Besides, sometimes making a choice is more important than persistence!" If it were the original body, it would probably remain steadfast. But Jiang Chen is not a stubborn person.
Since there has been no response for a long time, forget it. Regardless of whose life it is, whether there is one more person or one less person, it continues as usual. "Ah!" "I understand what you mean!" "I won't force you, it's your own business as young people, you solve it yourselves!" The third elder seemed to have a deep understanding and sighed. Then, his expression changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Let's not talk about these things, let's talk about something important next!" "You have done well in the Spirit Snake City!" "Not only did you help the Holy Land establish its prestige, but you also gained four flawless holy weapons, bringing great benefits to the Holy Land!" "But doing this also has significant drawbacks!" "Nowadays, you have become famous throughout the Nine Heavens Realm, known by everyone!" "Being so high-profile will make you extremely dangerous in the future. Various forces will be watching you. You must be careful!" Naturally, the third elder was happy about everything that happened in the Spirit Snake City. After all, everything Jiang Chen did made the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning win. Inside and out, there was not a single loss. Fame, prestige, and holy weapons. The way it was handled was perfect, without any flaws. "I naturally know this!" "Besides, this is inevitable. As the Holy Son of Absolute Beginning, even if I do nothing, various forces will still keep an eye on me!" "In that case, it's better to make a high-profile appearance and let those so-called geniuses understand that it's not easy to pass through this path smoothly!" Jiang Chen said indifferently. With the title of Holy Son of Absolute Beginning, this reputation is there. Even if he keeps a low profile, he is destined to be noticed by others. Therefore, Jiang Chen is too lazy to keep a low profile. "But it's better for you to be more cautious!" "I don't like putting pressure on you, but I want you to understand that you are not only carrying yourself, but also the hope of the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning!" The third elder sighed. Don't be fooled by the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning's dominance over the Nine Heavens Realm. In reality, it is already in decline.
If a strong individual who can dominate the scene does not appear, the position of the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning will continue to decline, and it will no longer have its former glory. "Don't worry, Third Elder!" "The Holy Land of Absolute Beginning will shine again and return to its former peak!" "I guarantee it!" Jiang Chen said in a deep voice. "I want to believe you!" A thousand words condensed into one sentence. This sentence has already expressed everything. On the other side. Not long after Ye Qingcheng returned, she saw Yan Ruyu appearing outside her door, looking at her with a smile on her face. "Big sister, you're finally back!" "I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Yan Ruyu had a smile on her face, looking proud as if she were a peacock showing off its might. "Hmph!" "I don't want to see you, go away!" Ye Qingcheng's face immediately turned dark, giving her an eviction order directly. Nowadays, she can see anyone. Except Yan Ruyu! PS: Please give me flowers, votes, and rewards...
