Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable

Black smoke billowed as a dark figure fled into the distance and vanished.

"Dare to lure a Liger Beast to attack the Space-Time Flying Ship? Next time, it won’t be as simple as just severing your Ancestral Soul!"

The woman’s voice was like thunder, shaking the surroundings.

BOOM—

After a violent shudder, the Space-Time Flying Ship stabilized once more.

The figure of the woman with luminous white wings moved, and suddenly, Ye Tianling’s Soul Talent could no longer sense her presence.

But just then, the winged woman suddenly manifested right beside Ye Tianling.

"Lady Guardian."

After the woman with the luminous white wings manifested, Jiang Wannian immediately bowed and called out respectfully.

Hearing this, the woman completely ignored Jiang Wannian.

"Lady Guardian."

Lin Yuyan also bowed at once, calling out with the utmost respect.

Then, everyone on the Flying Ship realized that the Lady Guardian had actually manifested a physical body and entered the ship—one must understand, she usually appeared only as a projection!

For her to manifest a physical body like this was an extraordinary event!

Everyone bowed in greeting, calling out to her respectfully.

Yuan Haoning was no exception.

Amidst them all, only Ye Tianling did not.

In fact, he had a faint idea of why the Lady Guardian had appeared!

Yuan Haoning’s heart tightened. "Quick, bow! Don’t be rude!" she immediately transmitted to Ye Tianling, reaching out to discreetly tug his sleeve.

But Ye Tianling remained unmoved.

"Soul Talent? The Extreme Dao legacy Talent of the Dragon Race?"

The woman’s eyes were as bright as the full moon. Her breathtaking beauty and the aura of an Unparalleled Divine Spirit left Ye Tianling utterly shaken.

Gazing at her, Ye Tianling found himself completely captivated by her aura, and a strange, romantic notion surfaced in his heart.

He found it difficult to control himself.

This woman was countless times stronger than any Saint he had ever seen in the Soul Burial Starry Sky.

At this moment, Ye Tianling was truly stunned—this was the first true powerhouse he had ever encountered.

He had no way of gauging the full extent of such an expert’s power.

The woman’s voice was crisp and pleasant, like the voice of a Divine Spirit. Only when it echoed in his heart did Ye Tianling suddenly come to his senses.

In that instant, everyone on the Flying Ship became lost in that beautiful voice—even though it was only directed at Ye Tianling, not them.

In that same moment, a deep sense of dread bloomed in Ye Tianling’s heart!

Ye Tianling knew that if this woman were to use this Charm Ability and attack him directly, he would already be dead!

’What Realm is this woman in? How can she be so strong? My Soul Talent is combined with my Celestial Dao Rule Domain and even contains a trace of the Time Law’s characteristics, yet she was able to sense it? And she even knew I was the one who released it?’

Ye Tianling was inwardly alarmed, but he quickly regained his composure.

At that moment, his Soul Talent still detected a faint trace of surprise in the woman’s incredibly beautiful eyes.

Although this flicker of surprise was extremely faint and well-hidden, Ye Tianling still caught it.

"Yes, the Soul Talent."

Ye Tianling nodded, his own voice responding with equal clarity.

He was neither servile nor overbearing, and he didn’t bow. He spoke to her as if she were an equal.

As Ye Tianling’s voice rang out, the surrounding Cultivators suddenly snapped back to their senses.

Only then did they realize that the Lady Guardian had appeared solely to speak with that young man!

What was this young man’s background?

Why would he cause the Lady Guardian to appear in person?

Soul Talent... what kind of Talent was that?

The Extreme Dao legacy of the Dragon Race... that sounds incredible. Is this young man from the Dragon Race?

At this, the expressions of the many Cultivators present turned strange.

Their gazes toward Ye Tianling were now filled with a mixture of shock, doubt, reverence, and a strange fanaticism.

After all, the Lady Guardian hadn’t even spared a glance for a genius like Jiang Wannian, so what kind of ability did this ordinary-looking, handsome young man possess?

...

Lin Yuyan, Jiang Wannian, and even Yuan Haoning were all dumbfounded.

It was only then that Jiang Wannian noticed Ye Tianling standing not far from Lin Yuyan.

Of course, he didn’t know Ye Tianling, but he now understood that this young man must have a profound background or some terrifying Innate Ability. Otherwise, he would never have received such attention from the Lady Guardian.

"This is?"

Jiang Wannian noticed Lin Yuyan’s gaze, which was filled with shock, disbelief, and incredulity. He instantly understood that Lin Yuyan knew this young man.

"Brother Wannian, that’s Ye Tianling! The one I mentioned to you before... my childhood friend. His mother was once a prodigy of the Dragon Race. As for the specifics... I’m not too clear on them myself. I only heard some of it from my mother."

Lin Yuyan was dazed, even a little flabbergasted.

The Lady Guardian was paying attention to this Ye Tianling, but his attitude was far too ’indifferent’, wasn’t it?

’Shouldn’t he be showing a bit of reverence and awe?’

’Won’t he offend the Lady Guardian acting like this? Won’t she find him disrespectful?’

"That’s him? Didn’t you say he had some ’Innate Deficiency,’ which made him a bit slow and dull?"

Jiang Wannian couldn’t help but be startled. When he looked at Ye Tianling again, his eyes held a hint of gravity.

However, after a careful inspection, he became a little frustrated.

In his eyes, Ye Tianling was merely at the Middle Stage of Sword Void Seven Transformations, and he didn’t seem exceptional in any other aspect either.

His physical body was decently tempered, but everything else about him was quite average.

To avoid making a mistake in judgment, Jiang Wannian extended his senses again, but he still found that every aspect of Ye Tianling was ordinary, even mediocre.

However, Jiang Wannian was experienced and worldly. Having reached this conclusion, he said no more and simply watched in silence.

Lin Yuyan’s situation was much the same as Jiang Wannian’s. The first time she saw Ye Tianling, she had actually sensed his Innate Ability—and it was only after discovering how mediocre it was that she had made her earlier comments.

Now, she was just as baffled.

Yuan Haoning’s confusion, however, was different. While condensing a Hundred Battle Power Dao Patterns was heaven-defying, was that really enough to warrant such special attention from the Lady Guardian? And what on earth was this Soul Talent? Could it be the Talent gained from condensing the Hundred Battle Power Dao Patterns?

Yuan Haoning felt a growing sense of shock and uncertainty. She was beginning to suspect that she had underestimated this ’slow and dull’ Ye Tianling.
