I, Ye Chen, turned out to be a top expert

"Sir, how are you these days?"

When Ye Chen returned, Liu Dan cooked some dishes for him and asked with concern.

"It's okay. You have always been well taken care of by others. But you have suffered a lot these days." Ye Chen put down his chopsticks and said with a distressed look on his face.

"Sir, it's not hard." Liu Dan said hurriedly.

"Okay, I know everything. You've been living in poverty these days. Don't be reluctant to spend money. Look at you, you've lost weight. You need to pay attention to your nutrition on a daily basis." Ye Chen had a serious face and a hint of blame, which touched Liu Dan very much.

However, not far from Ye Chen, the Green-Eyed Ape King, who was eating, trembled with chopsticks in his hand, and was almost shocked by Ye Chen's words and dropped his chopsticks on the ground. The Green-Eyed Ape King could not help but look confused. Is this the world of the big boss? At this moment, the Green-Eyed Ape King did not waste a single bit of the food, even licking every drop of water on the bowl clean. Because today, the Green-Eyed Ape King discovered that here, any random thing is something that the outside world might not be able to obtain even if the whole sect fought for it. However, in Ye Chen's eyes, these things actually represent poverty.

Any of these carefully prepared meals is a divine item, filled with Taoist aura and spiritual energy. For a cultivator, a meal is a great opportunity. However, these things are not in Ye Chen's eyes.

After seeing the terrifying Blue-Eyed Ape King in Ye Chen’s yard, he dared not do anything.

"Sir, I'm fine." Liu Dan felt Ye Chen's concern and his eyes turned slightly red.

"Girl, let's go down the mountain today, take a walk and buy some things." Ye Chen said seriously. Ye Chen felt that Liu Dan was reluctant to spend money, and women were very frugal.

After dinner, Ye Chen took Liu Dan down the mountain and went to Luoxianji to purchase daily necessities.

As soon as Ye Chen entered Luoxianji, he suddenly discovered that during the days he was away, Luoxianji had become much more lively, with a lot of new people added. Ye Chen also saw that Luoxianji was being expanded and improved.

"Son!"

As Ye Chen and Liu Dan were wandering around, a figure saw Ye Chen, looked delighted, and hurried over. The person who came was none other than Xiao Yang.

"Xiao Yang, it's been a while. You've been doing well these days, haven't you? You look a bit more dignified." Ye Chen couldn't help but smile as he watched Xiao Yang appear. At this moment, Xiao Yang had shed his former immaturity in a short period of time, becoming more mature and steady, and also gaining a sense of majesty. After all, as the head of the academy, holding great power, it was normal for him to have a sense of intimidation.

"Everything is given by you, Master."

When Xiao Yang heard Ye Chen's words, he bowed hurriedly.

Xiao Yang was feeling a little uneasy at the moment, his mind racing with thoughts. "Young Master has never said anything like this before. Could it be that he feels that I'm being disrespectful to him now?"

"The young master is testing me. A being like the young master, appearing in the mortal world, must be playing chess with a powerful being. And by guiding us, he must be using us to play against that powerful being. Moreover, we, the young master, who are being guided, must be the chess pieces chosen by the young master. The young master must be testing me to see if I am still loyal to him."

Thinking of this, Xiao Yang was extremely respectful to Ye Chen. At this moment, Xiao Yang regretted it very much. He felt that Ye Chen had returned yesterday, but considering that Ye Chen must be very tired after returning, he did not visit him as soon as possible. Now he regretted it very much. If he had visited him as soon as possible yesterday and expressed his loyalty, then the young master would not have any thoughts about him.

At this moment, Xiao Yang wanted to slap himself hard in the face.

"Xiao Yang, everything is the result of your own hard work. I didn't do anything. Now that you are rich, don't forget me." Looking at Xiao Yang's respectful face, Ye Chen couldn't help but smile at this moment. He looked at Xiao Yang and made a joke.

Ye Chen felt that among the people he knew, Xiao Yang was the weakest when he first met him. Now that he saw him, he came over to say hello. Ye Chen felt that he was a good friend and was joking with him casually.

However, Ye Chen's words, when heard by Xiao Zhan, changed Xiao Yang's expression. A look of fear appeared on his lowered face. He felt that Ye Chen was reminding him. Without thinking, Xiao Yang hurriedly said, "Young Master, you are right. When you and I met, I was not able to practice cultivation. But even though I have strength now, Xiao Yang is still the same Xiao Yang as before. I will not change."

"Ok!"

"Xiao Yang, don't be so serious. We are friends. We should just treat each other as friends. You are not acting like I am your servant."

"Are you very free these days?"

"You are not in the academy, but back to Luoxianji."

Ye Chen looked at Xiao Yang, very curious.

"My lord, these past few days have been quite restless, so we have decided to build a holy place in Luoxianji. I came back first to take a look. We will first build Luoxianji and turn it into a city so that the people can live and work in peace. My lord, you have said to me before: when you are poor, you should take care of yourself; when you are rich, you should help others. Now that I have the ability, it is time to repay you."

Xiao Yang explained carefully.

"Isn't it peaceful?"

"Could it be that something big happened recently?"

"Is peace about to end?"

Hearing Xiao Yang's words, Ye Chen suddenly felt a little nervous. He had finally come out of the ancient restricted area, and it hadn't been long since he had a peaceful life. Could it be that there would be unrest here too? At this moment, Ye Chen was very concerned about Xiao Yang's words.

As a mortal, Ye Chen feels that peace and tranquility are the most important things to him.

"Young Master, I don't know what has happened recently, but some ruins have continued to appear, along with some terrifying self-proclaimed monks. These monks are not good people, so we plan to unite and build a holy place here to ensure peace and tranquility." After Xiao Yang finished speaking, he secretly paid attention to Ye Chen, wondering if Ye Chen was satisfied with his actions. After all, Ye Chen was experiencing the life of a mortal here. If he did this, would Ye Chen dislike it?

"Good, great good!"

"If we establish a power here, it will be a great thing for the people here!"

After hearing Xiao Yang's words, Ye Chen immediately praised him.

His heart was relieved instantly. Establishing a power here was a great thing in Ye Chen's opinion. It would finally be peaceful here and no one would come to make trouble easily.

"Sir, I wonder what brings you to the lake?"

Xiao Yang, who was chatting with Ye Chen, looked puzzled. This was a dock, and these days, the dock had no business at all and was very deserted.

"Buy fish."

"The fish from the Lu family are fat and big. I like their fish."

At this moment, Ye Chen came to a familiar ship.

"Sir, are you here to buy fish? I haven't seen you for a long time. The fish today is not very good." The man named Lu explained with an excited look on his face because he had a baby boy today.

"Why? Isn't yours the best?" Ye Chen was puzzled.

"Young master, you may not know this, but these days, there have been many strange phenomena in Longyang Lake. From time to time, the shadow of the Dragon Palace appears in the void, and shrimp soldiers and crab generals appear. We mortals dare not enter the depths of Longyang Lake. An old man said that the Dragon Palace in Longyang Lake has been opened." The man named Lu said seriously.
