Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 1359 - 1359 1318 Dragon Vein Anomaly

1359: Chapter 1318: Dragon Vein Anomaly 1359: Chapter 1318: Dragon Vein Anomaly Lu Chuan shared his speculation with Ye Jiaxin, but after some discussion, it was still hard to pinpoint the person’s identity, so they temporarily let it go.

“Hey…

Lu Chuan, can you step outside for a moment?

I’ll change my clothes, and then we’ll leave.”

“Alright, alright, I’m going…”

Lu Chuan tugged at the corner of his mouth, just about to get up and leave, when suddenly his vision went black, and he instantly lost consciousness.

Seeing this, Ye Jiaxin initially thought Lu Chuan was playing around, but when she approached and nudged him, he remained motionless.

Ye Jiaxin immediately panicked.

“What’s going on?!”

It must be noted that Lu Chuan was a Nascent Soul Realm expert.

Unless someone from the Ye Family at the Integration Realm suddenly appeared, capable of silently eliminating Lu Chuan, even multiple Nascent Soul experts teaming up wouldn’t necessarily be able to take him down without a fight.

…

Meanwhile, inside the Demon Suppression Pagoda.

Lu Chuan’s Divine Sense was forcibly pulled into the pagoda, facing the Nine Spirits Primordial Saint, leaving him utterly perplexed.

“What’s happening?

Elder, surely you’re not planning to step out for some fresh air now, right?

It’s probably not a good time—I don’t have the necessary materials to reconstruct your physical body yet.

Maybe… you can wait a few more days?”

Lu Chuan rubbed his hands together and flashed a somewhat ingratiating smile.

He didn’t really have a solution for this old figure—great strength, eccentric personality, notoriously unpredictable.

None of the usual methods gave him leverage over this enigmatic saint.

“You’ve misunderstood.”

“Then, elder, what do you mean?”

“I want to warn you that the dragon vein in your current location has undergone a disturbance.

If you don’t leave soon, you could face a significant calamity.

Even you might not escape unscathed.”

“The dragon vein has undergone a disturbance?

Is that… even possible?”

Lu Chuan’s eyes widened in shock upon hearing this, his expression full of disbelief.

Wasn’t it said that there are extremely few entities that can influence destiny?

Surely it couldn’t be such an absurd coincidence that he stumbled upon one, could it?

“The explanation is rather complicated, and even I am unclear on the exact cause.

I’m merely trying to advise you to be cautious.

Either leave as soon as possible and wait out the calamity, or you might want to personally investigate the dragon vein to see what changes have occurred there.”

Words from the Nine Spirits Primordial Saint carried substantial credibility.

After all, each entity suppressed by the Tower Spirit in this place had once tormented vast lands as Great Demons.

Lu Chuan didn’t believe there was anything about him that could provoke this saint into going through this convoluted effort just to set a trap—it simply didn’t add up.

With this thought, Lu Chuan exhaled deeply, nodding slightly, and said, “Thank you for your warning, elder.

I’ll stay vigilant.”

“You haven’t completed what you promised me.

Don’t go dying now, kid.”

“I’ll do my best to stay alive until I fulfill our agreement, elder.”

As Lu Chuan’s Divine Sense returned from the Demon Suppression Pagoda, his body trembled slightly, and he opened his eyes, letting out a long breath.

Seeing that Lu Chuan was finally awake, Ye Jiaxin’s nerves eased a bit.

She threw herself into Lu Chuan’s arms, choking on her words, “You scared me to death—I thought…”

“Sorry about that.

Something unexpected happened.

Jiaxin, do you know where your Ye Family’s dragon vein is located?”

“Dragon vein?

I’ve never heard of it.”

“You’ve never heard of it?”

“I’m not lying; I truly haven’t heard of it!”

Facing Ye Jiaxin’s gaze, Lu Chuan nodded slightly and said gravely, “I know you wouldn’t lie to me, but this matter is of monumental importance.

It concerns you, me, and even the entire Ye Family’s future.

Do you have any clues about it?

Even the smallest lead?”

“This…”

Ye Jiaxin lowered her brows, falling into deep thought.

She had followed her grandfather since childhood, but he had never spoken about anything related to the dragon vein.

However, if she had to say something…

“Our family has an absolute forbidden area.

Other than Grandpa, no one is allowed near it.

When I was younger, I tried sneaking in once.

Grandpa, uncharacteristically furious, lectured me sternly.

Since then, I’ve never dared to step foot near it again.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Chuan’s eyes immediately lit up.

“Where is this place you’re talking about?”

“It’s at the mouth of a cave at the summit of Tianyuan Mountain.

But Brother Lu Chuan, the cave entrance at Tianyuan Mountain summit has always been guarded by the family elders.

Ordinary people are forbidden from approaching.

Moreover, my Second Grandpa Ye Zhen’s strength is extraordinary.

He’s also at the Nascent Soul Realm.

For us to sneak in… I’m afraid it won’t be easy.”

“We don’t have the luxury of time to deliberate further.

We must figure out a way to get in, and if necessary, we’ll have to force our way in.”

“Prepare briefly, and then we’ll head to Tianyuan Mountain to investigate the dragon vein.

Hopefully… we’re not too late.”

…

Under normal circumstances, if it were anyone else, Lu Chuan might dismiss it.

But this warning came from the Nine Spirits Primordial Saint.

If even a once-tyrannical Great Demon, recognized for its cunning and mastery over destiny, offered this advice, it wasn’t something Lu Chuan could ignore.

Under Ye Jiaxin’s guidance, the two concealed their tracks and arrived at the base of Tianyuan Mountain.

Ye Jiaxin pointed to a small pavilion at the summit and said solemnly, “Second Grandpa is stationed beneath that pavilion, guarding the cave entrance.

He rarely leaves, not even now when Grandpa is facing troubles.

Second Grandpa hasn’t stepped foot away from Tianyuan Mountain.

Although I don’t understand what a dragon vein is, if our Ye Family has one place of utmost importance, this must be it.”

“Stick close to me later.

I’ll attempt to negotiate with your Second Grandpa first.

If that fails, we’ll have no choice but to fight.

Don’t worry—I won’t take his life.

At most, I’ll make him sleep for a while.”

“Brother Lu Chuan, Second Grandpa is very strong—he’s a master of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul.

Are you sure…”

“Just trust me.”

With that, Lu Chuan extended his hand and gently wrapped it around Ye Jiaxin’s slim waist.

He couldn’t deny—the sensation was remarkable.

Even through a layer of clothing, Lu Chuan could feel the smooth softness of her skin.

Years of cultivation had given Ye Jiaxin a perfect figure; her stomach was flat, without an ounce of excess fat.

But alas, Lu Chuan had no time for such thoughts now.

His priority was resolving the current crisis.

Holding Ye Jiaxin tightly in his arms, he stirred up the Spiritual Power within his body, transforming into a streak of shadow.

Within a few breaths, they had reached the summit of Tianyuan Mountain.

Oddly enough, at the summit, there was no sign of anyone—not even the faint trace of presence.

Lu Chuan furrowed his brow.

“Jiaxin, are you sure your Second Grandpa is stationed here year-round?

Why is there not a soul in sight?”

“I… I don’t know.

But Grandpa said that unless the family faces an existential crisis, Second Grandpa is absolutely not to leave Tianyuan Mountain’s summit.

Brother Lu Chuan, could Second Grandpa have run into some trouble?”

“Hard to say, Jiaxin.

In my opinion, you should leave here first.

Find a nearby place to hide and wait for my news.”
