Cultivation: Divine Awakening Early Stage
Physique: Great Divine Yang Body [Divine level]
Destiny: 3400]
Xiao Chen was taken aback to discover that Ye Fan had already reached the Divine Awakening realm.
After a moment of thought, he realized it only made sense for the chosen ones to come back stronger after a setback.
He then turned his attention to the jade pendant, which played a significant role in Ye Fan\'s rise.
It not only contained a remnant soul but also held the plans and connections that Ye Zhiqiang had left for his son before his death.
After just a brief moment, he averted his gaze to avoid attracting any suspicion.
One of the reasons he wanted to meet Ye Fan in person was to use the \'villain\'s eye\' on Ji Rongmei, as the \'plot viewing ticket\' only allowed him to see events leading up to Ye Fan\'s ascension to the upper realm.
Xiao Chen could only recall significant events related to Ye Fan and lacked thorough knowledge about the upper realm.
He guessed that this might be due to the influence of heaven\'s will or perhaps he was too weak.
When he asked the system, it also told him to get stronger.
Without delay, he used his \'villain\'s eye\' on Ye Fan\'s jade pendant and Rongmei\'s status panel appeared in front of him.
[Name: Ji Rongmei
Status: General of the Immortal Ye Family and Sole Survivor of the Immortal Ji Clan in the upper realm
Current Cultivation: Mysterious Platform Middle Stage
Former Cultivation: [Above Transcend Tribulation Realm]
Physique: Inferno Lotus Sacred Heritage [Extreme level]
Destiny: 6100]
After seeing her panel, Xiao Chen was not surprised, as he was already familiar with most of the information.
In the plot, Ye Fan was associated with only two women.
Tang Jingxue and Ji Rongmei.
The bond between Ye Fan and Ji Rongmei deepened due to their shared affinity for fire Dao.
Ji Rongmei had an extreme-level fire-type physique, while Ye Fan possessed a divine-level fire-type physique.
While Xiao chen was lost in his thoughts, Ji Rongmei who was residing within the jade pendant, was looking at him with a dazed face.
When she first laid eyes on his face, her heart raced unexpectedly. "What\'s happening!?"
"Why is my heart beating so suddenly?"
Despite having encountered countless handsome men in the upper realm, she had never experienced this before.
"Could it be..." A thought crossed her mind, and her cheeks turned bright red.
"No! I refuse to believe it!" She shook off the idea and glanced back at Xiao Chen.
After using her divine sense on him, she had a shocked face.
She couldn\'t see through him at all.
The only thing she could confirm was that he was at the Divine Awakening Peak stage—a fact he showed no intent to hide.
Then she noticed Tang Jingxue standing next to him, a beauty that rivaled her own, which sparked a feeling of discomfort in Ji Rongmei. She didn\'t realize that what she was experiencing was jealousy.
Meanwhile, Ye Fan looked at Xiao Chen with a puzzled expression. \'Who is he?\' he wondered.
\'Why do I feel nauseous just looking at him\'
Ye Fan couldn\'t understand why he felt such disgust toward this man.
There was even a trace of killing intent rising in his heart, though he quickly hid it.
However, his killing intent didn\'t escape Xiao Chen and Rongmei.
Xiao Chen was slightly surprised but chose to ignore it.
Ji Rongmei, on the other hand, was confused by his sudden hostility. "Could it be he\'s one of the people who mocked Ye Fan?" she wondered. "Or is he simply jealous?"
As for Tang Jingxue, she vaguely recognized Ye Fan but paid him little attentio as she kept Xiao Chen\'s advice not to reveal herself in front of sect members in her mind.
More than anything, She was feeling depressed after Xiao Chen stopped her from shopping.
After checking Rongmei\'s panel, Xiao Chen proceeded with his plan. He pretended to browse the items briefly before picking up an ancient map.
"If the young master wants this, he can take it," the old man immediately offered, noticing his interest.
"This storage bag contains 2,000 low-grade spirit stones. That should be sufficient, right?" Xiao Chen replied, ignoring the man\'s words as he handed him the storage bag.
Ye Fan who was witnessed this scene, felt a burst of anger welling up within him.
He approached the old man and shouted,
"Old man, I wanted that. Why are you selling it to others? I have 1100 spirit stones here."
Hearing this, the old man replied with an angry face. "yours? Who said it was yours?"
"Did you not say you were a poor rogue cultivator and only got 850 low-grade spirit stones?"
"And to begin with, you weren\'t even planning to buy this map?!"
Hearing the loud shouts, a crowd gathered around the stall and observed the commotion with interest.
Suddenly, Xiao Chen asked with a stunned expression from the side. "Old man, what are you saying?"
"Brother Ye Fan is an inner disciple of our sect."
Hearing his words, the old man was shocked and cursed Ye Fan\'s entire ancestral tree.
If Ye Fan had him know his status, He would have given whatever he wanted at a low price.
\'Not good. It was found that I tried to scam a disciple of the sect, I will be done for!\' The old man thought, wiping the sweat on his forehead.
The old man quickly knelt before Ye Fan and tears streamed down his face, and pleaded with a pitiful face."Young man, please forgive this old man."
"Had I known your status as a disciple of the peerless heaven sword sect, I would have given you a discount". A cunning light flashed in his eyes.
