Supreme Lord of Towers

Ten days later!

Within the Water Sect ruins, in a tranquil gorge.

Shangguan Zitong’s graceful body was soaking in a vibrant green Spirit Pool, her curves alluring and mesmerizing.

Sizzle sizzle!

An extremely mysterious energy continuously flowed from the pool into Shangguan Zitong’s body, causing her entire being to emit a faint cyan radiance, giving off an incredibly divine aura.

Beside her, there was a girl in black clothes, acting as her Guardian.

This girl was none other than Pearl.

However, at this moment, Pearl’s brow was tightly furrowed, her expression one of deep concern.

”It worked, Pearl, my cultivation finally reached the Sixth Layer of the Profound Pill Realm.” At that moment, Shangguan Zitong suddenly opened her eyes, her face full of joy.

When she had just entered these Ancient Ruins, Shangguan Zitong’s cultivation was only at the Fourth Layer of the Profound Pill Realm.

After all, she was only one or two years older than Ye Chen.

Even if she awakened the Cyan Dragon Bloodline, her cultivation couldn’t be exceptionally high.

To reach the Fourth Layer of the Profound Pill Realm at around twenty years old was already quite remarkable.

Even in the Ziwei Sacred Land, such individuals were not often seen.

However, soon after entering these Ancient Ruins, Shangguan Zitong discovered this Spirit Pool near the Water Sect ruins, containing Profound Celestial True Water.

With the help of the Profound Celestial True Water, Shangguan Zitong took less than a month to advance two small realms from the Fourth Layer to the Sixth Layer of the Profound Pill Realm.

This was something that would be hard for most people to believe even if told.

”Congratulations, Miss, it seems you’ve come to the right place this time.” Pearl said joyfully, genuinely happy for Shangguan Zitong.

In fact, though there was some Profound Celestial True Water in the Ziwei Sacred Land, Shangguan Zitong had never been able to obtain any.

According to the rules of the Ziwei Sacred Land, disciples needed to have a certain amount of Contribution Points to exchange for Profound Celestial True Water.

Despite working hard on tasks for the Ziwei Sacred Land, Shangguan Zitong was never able to accumulate enough Contribution Points.

This is why she embarked on exploring these Ancient Ruins.

Because she had heard that the Profound Celestial True Water might exist within these Ancient Ruins.

She didn’t expect to actually find it.

”Pearl, I asked you to enter this Spirit Pool and cultivate with me, why did you refuse? Profound Celestial True Water can quickly enhance your cultivation, and if you miss this chance, it will be hard to come by again.” Shangguan Zitong couldn’t help but sigh.

When she discovered this Spirit Pool, she insisted that Pearl join her for cultivation.

But Pearl was stubborn and never agreed.

Otherwise, Pearl’s cultivation could have improved by one or two small realms by now.

”Miss, my talent is far inferior to yours. If this Profound Celestial True Water were shared with me, it would be a waste! As long as Miss can quickly improve her cultivation, I am content.” Pearl smiled.

Profound Celestial True Water is extremely rare.

Finding some here was already a tremendous stroke of luck.

So naturally, Pearl wouldn’t compete with her Miss for it.

Her Miss bore a deep-seated enmity and truly needed to enhance her strength quickly.

”Pearl, I understand your thoughts, but next time, don’t do this. If we can find more Profound Celestial True Water, you must cultivate with me.” Shangguan Zitong felt warmth in her heart and spoke gently to Pearl.

Pearl, although just a maid, had faced life and death with her.

Thus, Shangguan Zitong had long regarded her as a sister.

When there are good things, she naturally wanted to share with Pearl.

”Understood, Miss. By the way, Miss, I have something very important to tell you.” At this moment, Pearl’s expression suddenly turned extremely serious.

”What is it?” Shangguan Zitong’s face changed slightly, and an ominous premonition arose in her heart.

”It’s the Young Master, he’s been completely surrounded by Ye Fei’s men, his life is in imminent danger,” Pearl said, looking extremely distressed.

In fact, she had already learned ten days ago that Ye Chen was surrounded by Ye Fei’s subordinates within the Fire Sect ruins.

But Shangguan Zitong had been in seclusion within the Spirit Pool and couldn’t be disturbed.

Though Pearl was extremely anxious, she didn’t inform Shangguan Zitong.

But now, she could no longer hold back.

”What? How could this happen? Could it be that Ye Fei has discovered Ye Chen’s identity?” Shangguan Zitong’s body trembled violently, her face drained of color.

Ever since entering these Ancient Ruins, she had been cultivating in the Spirit Pool.

Regarding Ye Chen, she knew nothing until now.

But she never expected Ye Chen to be targeted by Ye Fei.

It was like a bolt from the blue for her.

You must know, Ye Fei is a peerless talent from the Divine Spirit Family’s Ye Clan!

Even Shangguan Zitong had no confidence in defeating him, let alone Ye Chen.

So, once Ye Chen was targeted by him, it would undoubtedly be a dangerous situation.

”Miss, the Young Master’s identity has indeed been exposed, and now, all the powerful individuals in the Ancient Ruins probably already know he is a direct descendant of the Ye Clan! If he weren’t hiding within a Fire Sect array, he would have been killed by Ye Fei and his men already.” Pearl sighed, her brows filled with deep worry.

Although Ye Chen was hiding in that array within the Fire Sect ruins and was currently safe,

the power of that array wouldn’t last much longer.

Once it lost its protection, Ye Chen’s fate would be tragic.

”No! I must go and rescue Ye Chen immediately, or he’ll die.” Shangguan Zitong’s fists clenched tightly, her heart filled with urgency.

”Miss, your cultivation hasn’t reached the Seventh Layer of the Profound Pill Realm, you aren’t a match for Ye Fei. Rushing there blindly would be extremely dangerous! It would be better to wait until your cultivation reaches the Seventh Layer to rescue the Young Master.” Pearl’s expression was extremely grave.

Although Shangguan Zitong was a genius disciple of the Ziwei Sacred Land and ordinary cultivators didn’t dare to harm her,

Ye Fei was different.

He was the grandson of the Second Elder of the Divine Spirit Family’s Ye Clan, with a very distinguished status.

Even the Ziwei Sacred Land’s disciples couldn’t intimidate him.

Therefore, if Shangguan Zitong went to rescue Ye Chen recklessly, she too would be targeted by Ye Fei.

If that happened, the consequences would be unimaginable.
