Otherworldly-Cultivator-Chapter 800: Chen Meiyi - Ye Ling

Ye Ling was sitting alone under the tree, observing the bottle containing Chen Li's Yang Qi in her hand. She had liked him since she arrived in the Ancient Qin Realm more than seven months ago, but they had never communicated with each other, mainly because he was busy with his cultivation and training. They had only spoken a few times, and their conversations had been about normal topics.

Even though Chen Li was still young, and his cultivation was still far below hers, Ye Ling didn't dare to underestimate him because he was the reincarnation of Emperor Long.

Chen Li had lived for tens of thousands of years before he died in the rebellion a thousand years ago, so his experience in the cultivation world was much higher than Ye Ling's.

Ye Ling had never fallen in love with any man, but she fell in love with Chen Li at first sight. Unfortunately, he had too many wives by his side, and he found it difficult to accept that, even though polygamous relationships were common in the cultivation world.

Ye Ling dreamed of having a husband who only loved her, and she didn't want to be with a man with dozens of wives like Chen Li. However, fate had other plans for her, and she fell in love with him.

Since she had lived with them for months, Ye Ling knew that Chen Li loved all of his wives, but the woman he loved most was Feng Xian'er because they had been together since their previous lives, and no other woman could replace her place in his heart.

Ye Ling wanted to become a powerful cultivator, and she knew that Chen Li could help her. However, she didn't want to share him with so many women, which made her face the dilemma of learning the Celestial Yin Technique and swallowing his yang qi.

"What are you thinking about?" Ye Ling looked up at Chen Meiyi, who had just arrived. "Does that bottle contain Li'er's Yang Qi?"

"Yes, Mother." Ye Ling nodded to her. "Empress Feng came to talk to me earlier, and she left these bottles for me. She also imparted the dual cultivation technique you used to dual cultivate with Chen Li, but I'm hesitant to learn it because I won't be able to have a relationship with another man if I've swallowed a man's yang qi."

Chen Meiyi nodded in understanding and sat beside her adopted daughter. "Xian'er is different from other women, especially with her special ability to see through a person's heart. She must already know exactly what's in your heart and mind, including your feelings for Li'er. She knows that you have never fallen in love with any man, and he is the man who made you fall in love for the first time."

"I feel that Empress Feng is cheating with such ability." Ye Ling tilted her head to the side. "Did she have that ability in the past?"

"Yes." Chen Meiyi nodded slightly. "Xian'er is a phoenix, and a phoenix will never die. Even though she has been reborn twice, she is still Empress Feng, and both have the same abilities."

"If Empress Feng possessed such terrifying abilities in the past, how could those traitors betray her and Emperor Long?" Ye Ling asked in confusion.

"Trust and kindness." Chen Meiyi supported her body with her hands behind her back and looked up at the sky. "Emperor Long and Empress Feng were too kind in the past, and they treated those traitors well. They also supported those clans so they could develop and become great cultivators, but they were unaware of the rottenness of those people's hearts. Furthermore, no one anticipated the return of the Dark Race, and we found out too late because they managed to draw those traitors to their side without our knowledge; not even the old loli was aware of their return."

"Who exactly are the people of the Dark Race? Why don't Emperor Long and Empress Feng know about them?" Ye Ling asked again. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Chen Meiyi released a soft sigh. "The Dark Race is an ancient race, far more ancient than the inhabitants of the Five Divine Heavens. They existed since before the era of Emperor Long, but they suddenly disappeared completely, and the old loli thought they were extinct. Moreover, their two leaders were powerful and had reached the Immortal Venerable Realm, which overwhelmed us a thousand years ago. At that time, the old loli was the only one who didn't drink the poison, but she couldn't possibly fight against all of them by herself, and she was completely weakened after she killed almost half of our enemies."

"Does Senior Shijian know where the dark race is hiding, Mother?"

Chen Meiyi nodded to her. "After the war ended with our defeat, and her strength fully recovered, the old loli went looking for them. She had found the dark race's hideout, but it was located in a place that was currently out of our reach, preventing us from entering. For now, our focus is on those traitors, and we will slaughter them all in revenge for what they did a thousand years ago. Currently, three have fallen into our hands, and four more will soon follow."

"Who among them has fallen into your hands? Did Emperor Long and Empress Feng kill them?" Che Meiyi pointed to the Yin-Yang Divine Pagoda and told Ye Lin the identities of the two traitors imprisoned there, and she then pointed to Chen Li's residence before telling her about Luo Shen. "Why didn't they kill those three traitors? Those three people betrayed them, and their betrayal led to the deaths of Emperor Long and Empress Feng, so they truly deserved to die."

"Ha ha." Chen Meiyi laughed at that. "Why should we kill them if they are still useful to us?"

"Hmm?" Ye Ling looked at her with a puzzled expression.

"Ling'er oh Ling'er." Chen Meiyi said this while shaking her head. "The people in this residence, including Li'er and Xian'er, are still weak, remember? Those three women are immortals, and their cultivation is extremely high, so their Yin Qi is very precious. Li'er wants to milk as much of their Yin Qi as possible, and all of his wives can use it to improve their cultivation while he's in seclusion in the old loli's time realm."

"Oh." Ye Ling nodded in understanding and asked again. "What about those male immortals? Will Emperor Long give their Yang Qi to all his wives to improve their cultivation? If—Ouch! Why did you hit me on the head?"

"Because you're stupid!" Chen Meiyi rebuked her harshly. "Didn't Xian'er give you the Celestial Yin Qi?"

"Haha." Ye Ling laughed wryly as she rubbed her head. "I forgot that all the women who learn that technique cannot have sex with other men, and they will die if they do that.

"We cannot have sex with any men, and we are also prohibited from using their Yang Qi for cultivation. Moreover, Li'er is different from other men, and he would never allow any of his wives to use other men's Yang Qi." Chen Meiyi took a bottle of Chen Li's Yang Qi and opened the lid. "You have felt the power of his Yang Qi, right?"

Ye Ling nodded at her. "Even though Emperor Long's cultivation hasn't broken through to the Five God Realms, his Yang Qi is truly powerful, and it will become even more powerful once he reaches that stage."

"Yes." Chen Meiyi nodded at her. "Even though Li'er is still an ordinary human, he is different from most men, and his Yang Qi is more powerful than any other man's. Otherwise, all his wives wouldn't have reached the Half God Realm in just a few decades, and they would have taken much longer to achieve it."

"They—" Ye Ling was shocked when Chen Meiyi suddenly restricted her movement, and she was even more shocked when she forced her to drink Chen Li's Yang Qi. "Cough... Cough... Why did you do that to me, Mother?"

"Because you are such a foolish daughter," Chen Meiyi answered with a shake of her head as she touched Ye Ling's heart. "I've told you all too many times in the past that you must follow your heart, or you will experience heart demons. You have fallen in love with Li'er, and you keep thinking about him every day. If you reject your feelings, he will become your heart demon, making it increasingly difficult for you to advance in your cultivation."

Ye Ling put on a gloomy look, hugged her legs, and buried her face in her knees. "Mother, this is the first time I've fallen in love with a man, but unfortunately, he already has dozens of wives by his side, and I can't accept that kind of situation. I want my husband to love only me, and I don't want him to share his feelings with any other woman. I admit that I fell in love with Emperor Long, but I will never be able to accept his situation."

"I know your character very well, but I will not force you, and you must make your own decision regarding your feelings for Li'er." After she said that, Chen Meiyi immediately stood up from her seat and left Ye Ling, leaving her to think about her feelings for Chen Li.

Ye Ling immediately stored the remaining bottle containing Chen Li's Yang Qi into her storage ring, and she left the place to think about Chen Meiyi's words afterward.
