Chapter 2719: Who Is 'Teacher Ye'?

King Tianli of Huiyun Mountain has arrived!

Blue Fox Fairy of Fengji Mountain has arrived!

……

Powerful true spirits appeared one after another at Ox Demon Mountain.

After the six Saint Emperor Heavens, Ox Demon Saint Sovereign summoned all the strong beings above the Supreme Heaven level from the entire Ten Thousand Demon Mountains to gather at Ox Demon Mountain for the Ten Thousand Spirits Assembly!

This Ten Thousand Spirits Assembly was unprecedented in its grandeur!

However, unlike previous occasions, this assembly was not jointly summoned by the three Saint Sovereigns—Ox Demon Saint Sovereign, Giant Ape Saint Sovereign, and Roc Saint Sovereign.

Instead, it was issued solely by Ox Demon Mountain!

This was rather intriguing.

After the six Saint Emperor Heavens broke through, some true spirits began to catch on.

The six true spirits who had broken through to Saint Sovereign were all half-step Saint Emperor Heavens from within Ox Demon Saint Sovereign's territory!

Although the Saint Sovereigns were detached from worldly affairs and held a transcendent status, they still had territorial divisions among themselves.

Even a fool would know that this breakthrough was out of the ordinary!

Especially those at the peak of Jade Emperor Heaven and half-step Saint Emperor Heaven were particularly concerned.

Because they too wanted to know what the secret of the breakthrough was.

Who wouldn't want to step into Saint Emperor Heaven?

At that moment, the half-step Saint Emperor Heavens seated at the head of the table began whispering among themselves.

"Tell me, even that fool Mad Lion could break through to Saint Emperor Heaven—why can't I?" King Tianli said gloomily.

"Shh! Tianli, do you have a death wish? Mad Lion is now a Saint Sovereign. With his temper, if he overhears you, you'll die ten times over! If you want to court death, that's your business, but don't drag us into it!" King Snow Wolf hissed beside him.

King Tianli shuddered with fright, finally coming to his senses, and quickly said, "Sorry, sorry! I'm still having a bit of trouble adjusting! My talent and strength are clearly not inferior to theirs, yet I just can't break through—it's so frustrating!"

Frightened as he was, King Tianli's words voiced the sentiments of all the half-step Saint Emperor Heavens.

Seeing someone who was once on par with you suddenly break through to Saint Emperor Heaven—that was indeed hard to accept.

If it were just one, it would be bearable.

After all, such matters required great fortune.

But six breaking through at once—that was simply unacceptable.

This disparity drove them nearly mad!

Yet the more it did, the more they racked their brains to find the secret behind the six's breakthrough.

Since those six could break through, they themselves naturally could too!

Tiger Ben Mountain, Tiger Ben Saint Sovereign has arrived!

At this shout, everyone's hearts immediately tightened.

Everyone looked toward the entrance and saw Tiger Ben Saint Sovereign striding in, full of vigor.

Feeling the gaze of the crowd, Tiger Ben was indescribably elated!

The feeling of breaking through to Saint Emperor Heaven was truly wonderful!

As he walked past his former peers, he sensed their complex gazes and felt even more pleased.

He no longer had to struggle and seek the Saint Emperor Heaven!

But when he glanced at the head of the table, he saw only Big Yellow Ox.

Tiger Ben stepped forward and slightly cupped his hands, saying, "Brother Big Yellow!"

Big Yellow nodded slightly and said, "You're here? Sit down!"

But Tiger Ben did not sit; he smiled and said, "I wonder where Teacher Ye is? Tiger Ben wishes to go pay him respects first!"

Hearing this, everyone was baffled.

"Who is Teacher Ye?"

"The first thing Tiger Ben Saint Sovereign does upon arrival is not to pay respects to Ox Demon Saint Sovereign, but to this Teacher Ye?"

"I've never heard of such a figure in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains! Could it be that this Teacher Ye is even stronger than Ox Demon Saint Sovereign?"

……

Although Tiger Ben had stepped into Saint Emperor Heaven, in terms of strength, he was still far inferior to the three like Ox Demon Saint Sovereign.

So in everyone's view, Tiger Ben's first act should have been to pay respects to the three Saint Sovereigns.

But who was this Teacher Ye?

Big Yellow laughed and said, "Heh, don't mention it—even I haven't seen him for a long time! But today at this True Spirit Assembly, Teacher Ye should emerge from seclusion! When that happens, you can pay your respects then."

Tiger Ben said reverently, "I see! Teacher Ye's seclusion must mean he's working on something big! Then Tiger Ben will wait quietly for his emergence!"

With that, Tiger Ben went to his seat and sat down.

But the name 'Teacher Ye' became a hot topic among the crowd.

Soon, King Wanxiang also arrived.

After exchanging greetings with Big Yellow and Tiger Ben, his first matter was also to inquire about Ye Yuan's whereabouts.

The five of them had just emerged from seclusion not long ago and had not yet paid respects to Ye Yuan.

So naturally, their first order of business was to thank Ye Yuan for granting them the opportunity.

After receiving Big Yellow's reply, King Wanxiang also sat down calmly.

But the name 'Teacher Ye' became even more discussed among all the true spirits.

"Teacher Ye again! Who exactly is this Teacher Ye?"

"The first thing the two Saint Sovereigns did upon arriving was to look for this Teacher Ye!"

"Could it be that the other three Saint Sovereigns will also want to see Teacher Ye when they come?"

"Something's fishy! Could it be that this Teacher Ye is a reclusive master, and the breakthroughs of the six Saint Sovereigns were all his doing?"

……

The clever ones had already guessed something.

It wasn't hard to figure out!

And the subsequent arrival of Mad Lion Saint Sovereign and the others further confirmed their guesses.

Sure enough, the first thing they did upon arrival was also to pay respects to Teacher Ye!

Thus, 'Teacher Ye' became the most mysterious existence in everyone's eyes.

Some even guessed Ye Yuan's identity as a Heavenly Alchemist.

Of course, in their eyes, 'Teacher Ye' was definitely a powerful Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist!

The ability to simultaneously create five Saint Emperor Heavens—such a heaven-defying means could only be achieved by the legendary Fifth-Rank Heavenly Alchemist!

Those half-step Saint Emperor Heavens and Jade Emperor Heaven Great Perfection existences began to grow restless.

They were eager to see who this legendary 'Teacher Ye' really was!

Giant Ape Saint Sovereign has arrived!

Roc Saint Sovereign has arrived!

Hearing these two announcements, everyone was startled.

They hadn't expected these two to come as well!

After all, this Ten Thousand Spirits Assembly was 'taken upon himself' by Ox Demon Saint Sovereign!

This was essentially challenging the other two.

Everyone speculated that the arrival of these two was likely to stir up trouble!

If this assembly succeeded, who would still respect the other two Saint Sovereigns?

This time, Big Yellow also rose to greet them, smiling, "Giant Ape Saint Sovereign, Roc Saint Sovereign, your presence truly graces Ox Demon Mountain!"

Giant Ape, leaning on his staff, said amiably, "Brother, what are you saying? If Ox Demon Mountain is now a 'humble abode,' then our dwellings must be ruins!"

Roc Saint Sovereign also smiled, "I haven't yet congratulated Brother Big Yellow on joining our ranks!"

Big Yellow quickly smiled and said, "I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! You two elder brothers are still my seniors!"

This exchange left everyone utterly dumbfounded.
