Chapter 467: Truly Envious of the Divine Body
CHAPTER 467: CHAPTER 467: TRULY ENVIOUS OF THE DIVINE BODY
Within the Six Tao of Reincarnation, there’s an ability that doesn’t draw much attention: Insight.
This ability is similar to divination or Heavenly Fortune Tao, but fundamentally, there’s a significant difference.
Insight is about the present, constantly amplifying one’s Five Senses and Sixth Perception to a degree surpassing the perception of Divine Sense.
You might, at some unexpected moment, detect something unusual around you, like sensing the presence of Wen Qingshan.
"I’m quite curious, how exactly did I incorporate Fairy Valley into the Wuji Sect?" Wen Qingshan looked at him.
When the news broke, it sent shockwaves across the Southern Diaspora. Numerous young talents emerged, all seeking the answer.
But far too many explanations were being circulated.
Some said Chen Pingping was actually an Emperor Son who had intimidated Fairy Valley by wielding an Emperor Weapon.
Others believed Wuji Sect was truly powerful, and only a Quasi-Emperor’s intervention had allowed them to suppress Fairy Valley.
A third theory was that Yu Changfeng was still alive.
Ah!
When it came to this topic, Chen Pingping sighed lightly. "Actually, it’s nothing much. Personal charm, I suppose!"
Wen Qingshan was speechless.
"As everyone knows, I, Chen Pingping, am renowned for my looks—extraordinarily handsome, a rarity in this world. They were deeply convinced upon seeing me and voluntarily joined the Wuji Sect. Ah... I couldn’t even stop them; they were too enthusiastic," Chen Pingping said. "By the way, you’re a Divine Body. Aren’t you interested in joining my Wuji Sect?"
"I have no interest." Wen Qingshan’s smile gradually faded.
He won’t even tell me, and he calls himself ’extraordinarily handsome’?
Chen Pingping added, "We offer excellent benefits. Don’t believe me? Just ask Fairy. Even He Yitian, the young talent of the He Family, couldn’t wait to join us when he saw the Wuji Sect."
"Two options," Wen Qingshan looked at him.
Dressed in fine clothes, with a distinguished aura, he hovered mid-air, Tao patterns rippling under his feet, waves undulating in layers. Although his aura was restrained, he exuded a powerful feeling—a Divine Body, the Void Body.
Truthfully, Chen Pingping envied these Divine Bodies.
He had often reminded Guang Xiaoyu that speed alone wouldn’t guarantee victory. But consoling words were one thing; envy was another.
For instance, Chen Shixian’s Ancient Moon God Body.
Once Rising Moon Above the Sea was deployed, it was like a domain that imprisoned the battlefield. His strength was incomprehensibly formidable, further elevating him to a state of divine sanctity.
Another example was the Heavenly Spirit Body of Jin Yi, who could control nature’s spiritual energy and the Power of Heaven and Earth, reducing everything to ashes in a snap.
The current Void Body was no different. If not for his own potent Insight ability, coupled with his Hetero Pupil, this fellow might have remained hidden indefinitely.
Waiting until he obtained the Heavenly Fire to launch a sneak attack.
This was getting ridiculous.
Divine Bodies were favored by the heavens and benefited greatly, yet they never gave back to the world. This violated the natural order.
"I really envy you Divine Bodies, so exalted, like the bright moon, unreachable by others..."
"Once you make your appearance, you capture all the attention."
"Endowed with love and adoration from everyone."
"Everyone likes you, showering you with flattery and obsequious praise, wishing nothing more than to cling to your coattails."
"But I’m different. I come from a humble background, with subpar aptitude, talent, and comprehension. Other than my looks, I have almost nothing..." Chen Pingping sighed.
"For a life as insignificant as an ant’s, yet still targeted by so many, shouldn’t I feel a little proud?" He looked intently at Wen Qingshan.
Wen Qingshan didn’t speak.
Chen Pingping continued, "However, as I said before, the Wuji Sect currently has no Divine Body. I’ve yet to investigate Fairy Valley. If you’re willing to join the Wuji Sect, I can increase your benefits several times over."
"He won’t go," Fairy interjected.
"Don’t butt in, I’m asking him," Chen Pingping glanced at her.
"I refuse."
"So? Really no room for negotiation?" Chen Pingping was unwilling to give up.
"Do you think..."
BANG!
The word "then" hadn’t even left his lips when Hei, who had circled around behind him, suddenly launched a sneak attack. Rising up in human form, a sword came smashing down.
Yes, it wasn’t a slash, nor a chop.
It was a smash!
Hei yelped with excitement, "WOOF WOOF WOOF..."
Earth Chicken rolled his eyes. "Just like that, a pure and kind-hearted dog is ruined."
The nearby Fairy was flabbergasted.
While Chen Pingping was talking, she had been looking in their direction the entire time. She was completely oblivious to Hei, as it was so small and its pitch-black fur allowed it to seemingly merge with the dreary surroundings.
So, when Hei circled behind Wen Qingshan, no one noticed.
Heh.
Chen Pingping walked up to Wen Qingshan, repeatedly kicking him and cursing, spittle flying everywhere. "So you’re a Divine Body, huh? So you’re arrogant? So you talk too much, yapping on and on? ’Submit or die?’ Who do you think you are? A Great Emperor? Daring to point fingers and lecture me, Chen Pingping!"
The Fairy was somewhat bewildered.
Since she had known Chen Pingping, she had always thought he was a mature and steady fellow, good at strategizing, and deeply cunning.
His masterful strategies were his key to victory.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have fooled her when they first met in Soup Valley. After arriving in the Southern Diaspora, he had knocked her out and taken her to the City of Extinction. Then, he even conned Fairy Valley into successfully merging with the Wuji Sect.
The Fairy exclaimed, "This kid doesn’t look like much, but he sure has a silver tongue!"
As for whether he had real strength, that remained to be seen.
Turns out, Chen Pingping wasn’t just cunning; he was also petty—despicably so.
While talking to Wen Qingshan to distract him, he had Hei sneak around for an ambush. And now, he was kicking Wen Qingshan like some street hoodlum.
This image shattered her perception of Chen Pingping.
Could it be that Chen Pingping was jealous of Divine Bodies?
Because he came from an ordinary background and his cultivation was also plain, he envied those lofty Divine Bodies.
After kicking for a long time, Chen Pingping finally stopped, looking completely satisfied with himself, and laughed, "As I thought, the flesh of a Divine Body really is different from others."
The Fairy was speechless.
"Hey, Fairy, come over here..." Chen Pingping called out. "I’m leaving this guy in your hands."
"Are you telling me to kill him?" The Fairy raised an eyebrow.
"Kill him? Why?" Chen Pingping rolled his eyes. "There’s no feud or grievance between us. He was just momentarily confused, jealous of my good looks, so he came to suppress me, that’s all."
His skin is really thick, Fairy thought, slightly relieved to hear Chen Pingping wouldn’t kill him.
At the same time, she became even more curious about Chen Pingping. What kind of person was he really? Even after knowing him for such a long time, she still couldn’t see through him.
The Fairy quickly walked over. "He’s a Divine Body from the Star Sea. If you kill him, you and the Wuji Sect will be in big trouble." Although she knew Chen Pingping wouldn’t kill him, she still offered a kind reminder, hoping he wouldn’t make a mistake.
Chen Pingping scoffed. "A mere trash Star Sea. Once I, Chen Pingping, have some free time, I’ll definitely pay them a visit and enlighten them about the Wuji Sect’s ’benefits.’"
His words put the Fairy on alert.
Hmm.
Chen Pingping paused, seemingly aware of something, and said, "We need to hurry and leave."
Everything in the depths of the Dragon Soul Secret Realm was unknown. They had to act fast, secure the Heavenly Fire quickly, and then get far away from this place. The longer they lingered, the more likely trouble would arise.
"You’re not expecting me to carry him on our way, are you?" The Fairy’s expression instantly stiffened.
"Hmm..." he nodded.
"But I’m a girl," the Fairy said with a hint of anger. "Don’t you know there should be a distinction between men and women?"
"Don’t be mad! I’ll pay you," Chen Pingping said, side-eying her.
