Immortality Starts With Investment

Chapter 755: Harvesting the Heavenly Emperor Heir Together!

Shen Yu nodded in agreement. ”That works. If we confirm it, Iʼll hang back at first, paddling on the sidelines until the perfect moment. Then Iʼll land the fatal blow with the Heaven-Deceiving Divine Art.”

The Divine Silkworm Clan Leaderʼs face darkened further. Even with near-certain proof, he still refused a direct confrontation? He felt utterly helpless. How had his clan produced such an absurdly cautious prodigy?

Shen Yu, however, felt no shame. Even his talk of ambush had been mere lip service to placate the Clan Leader. In his view, even if the Heavenly Emperor heirʼs cave heaven had been drained dry. Who knew what other hidden cards he held? Better to let others test the waters.

He would never strike until the Heavenly Emperorʼs heir lay dead. He would conceal himself with the Heaven-Deceiving Divine Art and simply observe. Once the man fell, he would ambush the other prodigies and snatch the spoils from them. That was the optimal path.

…

It wasnʼt only the Divine Silkworm Clan. Throughout the Myriad Races Immortal City, many great clans grew restless, plotting ways to deal with Ye Chen. Their prodigies, upon learning the situation, gleamed with ambition. This generationʼs Heavenly Emperor heir stood as the strongest. His every gesture echoed the demeanor of the ancient Heavenly Emperor. Slaying him would resound throughout the cultivation world. Not to mention the vast treasures likely hidden in his cave heaven—perhaps even a portion of the Heavenly Emperorʼs vault. The Enlightenment Tea Tree might reside there too. Who could resist such temptation?

Yet Ye Chenʼs deliberate flicker of weakness as he departed felt overly staged. It bred hesitation. They feared he was fishing—baiting them into a trap. Or perhaps employing an empty fort strategy—making his performance deliberately poor to sow doubt, preventing bold action. And missing this singular opportunity.

Thus, they all turned their attention to the auction scheduled for the following month. They planned to offer items related to cave heaven restoration and origin recovery—to probe Ye Chen. Such treasures were rare. But as clans with legacies stretching millions of years, they could unearth one or two with effort…

If the Heavenly Emperor heir truly had been drained dry, he would desperately need them. This move would not only test him. It would also allow them to harvest him richly first! After all, countless great clans coveted him. Whatever they earned now was truly theirs…

”Brother, let me change back! This form feels so strange.”

Yao Yuezhi murmured shyly. But Ye Chenʼs voice rang firm with excitement. ”Itʼs the Heavenly Demon Ancestral Form I want!”

Yao Yuezhiʼs delicate face filled with resentment. Yet she couldnʼt bear to deny him. She could only shoot him an indulgent glance. Once they returned to the Heavenly Demon clanʼs encampment, Ye Chen eagerly pulled her into his cave abode.

Yao Yuezhi felt a mix of bashfulness and anticipation. Finally, she and Brother would create a child. But to her surprise, the usually decisive Ye Chen dawdled endlessly, refusing to get to the main event. He truly couldnʼt get enough of her Ancestral Form.

This…

Though his actions proved he adored every version of her, and introduced her to many new techniques, savoring even more of her origin.

Yao Yuezhi still ground her silver teeth in frustration, feeling he was utterly wicked. Meanwhile, Ye Chen made a novel discovery.Yao Yuezhi tasted different in her normal state versus the Ancestral Form.

In her usual form, she resembled premium black tea—clear, sweet, and fragrant. In Ancestral Form, she evoked fine green tea—initially less sweet, yet leaving a profound, lingering aftertaste moments later. Her towering height of two meters three also gave Ye Chen, for the first time, the thrill of driving a massive vehicle. Truly a fresh experience.

…

When everything concluded, Yao Yuezhi glared at him in embarrassed annoyance. ”Brother, how can you be so bad?”

But a sudden thought struck her. Could Brother feel unworthy of her current self—thatʼs why he refused to fully claim her? The more she pondered, the more plausible it seemed. Gazing at his strikingly handsome face, her eyes reddened once more. Before she could speak, Ye Chen wiped his mouth and produced ten spiritual plants, presenting them to her.
