Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 762: Luo Bingling Had an Epiphany!

Inside the cave abode.

Ye Chen sat in meditation, the Dao Cauldronʼs phantom hovering around him. After a long while, his brows twitched. He withdrew from cultivation, and the phantom slowly dissipated. A faint smile touched his face.

The spiritual plants from Yao Yuezhiʼs feedback, planted in his Primordial Cave Heaven, had greatly boosted his training. With the Dao Cauldronʼs amplification, his progress accelerated relentlessly. In less than two and a half years, he might charge straight into fourth heaven.

Outside the cave abode, a visitor arrived just then.

Ye Chen rose and opened the door. Seeing her, he arched a brow. That familiar slim waist—who else but Luo Bingling? She had emerged from seclusion. And reached mid-third heaven.

”Congratulations on your breakthrough, Fairy Luo…”

Ye Chen offered his felicitations. Yet he felt no joy at her presence. A four-thousand-fold without critical potential held little appeal. In the Myriad Races Immortal City, he could find more useful options. Before he finished speaking, however, Luo Bingling strode forward aggressively.

Ye Chen blinked in surprise.

Did she learn of his cave heaven origin gift and come to settle scores?

No.

What standing did she have to demand accountability from him?

Irritation flickered.

But the next instant, Luo Bingling seized both his hands, shoving him back against the cave door. Her warrior goddess build towered nearly as tall as his. No need to tilt her head—she kissed him directly.

Ye Chen: ???

Wall-donged? Had Luo Bingling gone full domineering CEO? He considered refusing, but ultimately let her. She pinned and kissed him.

As Ye Chen drew a sharp breath, surprise dawned. Had Yao Yuezhiʼs feats spurred her? Was she offering herself freely? Not unwelcome. Post-offering, her multiplier might hit eight thousand—with a one-day cooldown. Perfect for volume gifts like pills or plants.

Just then, Yao Yuezhi approached from the courtyard. ”Brother, the auction catalog added several treasures today. I sense something off with this auction—the myriad racesʼ mood feels…”

Her words caught in her throat. Before her eyes, her brother—pinned against the door by a golden-armored figure. Had their heads not pressed so close, she might have thought an intruder had subdued him.

Stolen novel; please report.

Recognizing the armored woman, Yao Yuezhi arched a brow dismissively. Fresh off shooing that shameless Yan Wenwen, Luo Bingling emerged. She guessed Luo Bingling chased the Dao Cauldron. Yet posed no threat.

The War God Clan prized lifelong fidelity, rarely intermarrying. Luo Bingling couldnʼt cross her own heartʼs barrier. A few pecks marked her limit. Once realizing no chance, sheʼd leave without prompting. No worry needed.

Yao Yuezhi paused briefly before continuing casually. ”Many myriad races prodigies disrespect you now, Brother—daring nicknames and such. But donʼt worry. I noted their names. When the time comes, Iʼll kill them all…”

Her tone stayed even, unfazed.

Ye Chenʼs ties to the Heavenly Demon Clan kept such news from him. Little Peacock King, too furious last visit, hadnʼt mentioned it. Mouth sealed, Ye Chen couldnʼt respond.

Luo Bingling glanced at Yao Yuezhi, sensing her increasingly terrifying aura. Resentment boiled deeper. All this should have been mine. No more hesitation, she scooped Ye Chen up, carried him inside, and flashed Yao Yuezhi a provocative look

Curiosity flickered in Yao Yuezhiʼs eyes. She tucked a stray lock behind her ear and followed in.

…

Inside the cave abode, Luo Bingling paid no heed to Yao Yuezhi following her in. On the contrary, it heightened her anticipation. She launched into familiar pre-battle preparations with practiced ease.

This surprised Yao Yuezhi, who stood nearby in her white dress like a delicate little flower. She hadnʼt expected the War God Clanʼs Luo Bingling to set aside pride and disdain Ye Chen.

Instead, she handled everything with remarkable skill. Many techniques were new even to Yao Yuezhi—watching alone proved enlightening.

At that moment, Luo Bingling resembled a grandmaster who had mastered countless schools.

Half an hour later, preparations were complete. A brief hesitation flickered in Luo Binglingʼs heart. But recalling the eldersʼ words, her eyes hardened with resolve.

Family couldnʼt be relied upon—only herself. She had to win Ye Chenʼs heart, claim the Dao Cauldron, and accelerate her cultivation. One day, crush the divine son utterly, slap every face in the War God Clan—never again daring to look down on others. Yet she rose.

Ye Chen sighed inwardly. Still not ready to give herself freely? This halfway limbo felt awkward. He couldnʼt touch his little tea princess. Surely not seek Auntie Yan again! But he overthought it. Luo Bingling merely shifted direction. Back to him, facing Yao Yuezhi directly. She lowered herself gently…

Ye Chen inhaled sharply. Luo Bingling inhaled sharply. Yao Yuezhiʼs eyes widened, emerald depths filled with shock. Had Luo Bingling lost her mind? Abandoning War God Clan traditions? The clan prized custom above all—if discovered, she might be expelled!

Luo Binglingʼs lips curved toward Yao Yuezhi. Then she busied herself unconcerned. This proved rather intriguing.

Ye Chen admired Luo Binglingʼs flawless waist dimples—truly pleasing to the eye. Her waist was perfection itself, without flaw.

Yao Yuezhi met Luo Binglingʼs gaze. Her cheeks flushed genuinely. It was, after all, her first time witnessing such a scene. And from Luo Binglingʼs expression—like breaking through a realm—she seemed genuinely blissful. This truly appeared fascinating. No wonder that woman Yan Wenwen kept coming. Would it soon be her turn?

Lost in wild thoughts, Yao Yuezhi suddenly froze. Next moment, she touched her hair—damp and plastered to her forehead—and gazed at Luo Bingling with aggrieved eyes.

Luo Bingling showed no remorse. ”Sorry—the cave abode is too small…”

With that, a buoyant Luo Bingling turned away, feeling lighter throughout her body…
