Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor-Chapter 466 - 463 Wushan Cloud Rain [Second Update]

"Disobedient children get a spanking?"

This is a method used by parents to discipline children, especially those who are pre-kindergarten.

Such a measure would obviously seem out of place if applied to Lian Hongshang.

Moreover, Lian Hongshang is the Venerated Elder of the Witch God Sect, a revered Goddess, whose status is absolutely transcendent.

Yet, such an incongruent admonishment could actually make her obediently comply.

She casually responded with an "Oh," like a child who had made a mistake, hanging her head low.

Li Chen casually took the sword from her hand and slid it back into its sheath.

Seeing the situation was a bit awkward, he shifted his gaze from Lian Hongshang and looked around the hall.

"This is your holy place, the Witch God Temple, isn’t it?"

After this rather unpleasant interlude, Lian Hongshang ceased her fussing and gradually reverted to her usual icy demeanor.

"Yes, that’s right, this is the Witch God Temple. The place where the Witch God ascended to heaven!"

Li Chen spotted a pile of stark white bones nearby, apparently all women with delicate figures, and some bones had turned into bone powder due to age.

"Whose remains are these?"

Lian Hongshang replied, "These are the remains of successive Divine Mothers of the Witch God Sect. When a Divine Mother feels her days are numbered and is nearing the end, she would enter here to retreat and seek the chance to glimpse the heavenly secrets. Unfortunately, not a single one has succeeded over the centuries."

"There are also some from the goddesses; they entered voluntarily seeking opportunities, but they all met their demise here too!"

Li Chen looked at Lian Hongshang and asked, "Like you, the kind who gets delusional?"

Lian Hongshang’s eyes widened in anger as she retorted loudly, "It’s your head that’s delusional!"

Li Chen, uninterested in arguing, casually asked, "The Divine Mothers and Goddesses of your Witch God Sect, they’re all female, right?"

Lian Hongshang rolled her eyes fiercely and snapped, "Isn’t that obvious? Of course, they are all women. Not just the goddesses, the Divine Mothers are all women too. Almost everyone in our Witch God Sect is a woman!"

Li Chen sighed lightly and said, "Oh, this Witch God really has insidious intentions!"

"How can you accuse the Witch God of having insidious intentions?"

Lian Hongshang’s eyebrows furrowed, her anger nearly pushing her to draw her sword.

Li Chen pointed to the scattered bones on the ground saying, "So many people have died; isn’t that reason enough to call it insidious?"

Lian Hongshang was momentarily stunned, then urgently said, "That’s because our talents were not sufficient to gain the Witch God’s recognition, leading to our fate. What does this have to do with her?"

Li Chen shook his head and said, "It’s not about lack of talent, but rather the wrong method!"

Lian Hongshang puzzled, "Wrong method? What do you mean by that?"

Li Chen pointed to the surrounding Life and Death Restrictions and said, "This place, although abundant in Spiritual Power, is where Yin and Yang intersect. If a pure male or female, even if they had proven themselves in the God Realm, entered here, they would stand no chance of leaving alive!"

"Only a Golden Core Stage cultivator, akin to a Land Immortal’s level, would be able to forcefully break the restrictions and leave alive!"

Hearing this, Lian Hongshang’s first reaction was to think Li Chen was exaggerating.

However, seeing the serious expression on Li Chen’s face, and not appearing to be joking, she half-doubtingly asked, "You just mentioned, a pure male or female would undoubtedly die upon entering. What about a man and a woman together, could they then receive the Witch God Inheritance and leave alive?"

Li Chen nodded and said, "Yes, but both parties must be virgins of Primordial Yin and Yang. Moreover, before that, they must..."

He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, casting a meaningful glance at Lian Hongshang.

Feeling uneasy under his stare, Lian Hongshang impatiently asked, "They must do what?"

Li Chen slightly paused to contemplate before answering her question. Instead, he posed a question, "You are well-read, you must have heard of the story of Xiang King and Divine Lady, Wushan Cloud Rain, haven’t you?"

"I know, what about it?"

As soon as she asked the question, it seemed she realized something. Her cheeks blushed, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Wushan Cloud Rain?"

Li Chen regarded Lian Hongshang with an "I can teach this child" look and said: "Yes, Wushan Cloud Rain!" frёeωebɳovel.com

Lian Hongshang’s eyes widened, and she huffed in frustration, "Humph, you liar, I don’t believe your nonsense."

Li Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Believe it or not, it’s up to you. Besides, what do I have to deceive you about?"

"What else could it be, it’s obviously my..."

Halfway through her words, Lian Hongshang’s face turned even redder with embarrassment, unable to speak any further.

Li Chen continued with interest, "Your what?"

"Go away, playing dumb!"

Annoyed, Lian Hongshang humphed and found a stone chair to sit down.

Li Chen didn’t continue to bother her but stared intently at the statue of the Witch God.

Seeing his serious look, Lian Hongshang casually asked, "What do you see?"

Li Chen pondered for a moment and replied, "This is not the Witch God!"

Lian Hongshang was shocked and laughed out in disbelief, "What a joke, this is the Witch God Temple. The statue in the center of the hall, how could it not be the Witch God?"

Li Chen smiled without speaking, and a clump of True Yuan formed in his palm, which he then fiercely hurled at the statue.

Lian Hongshang was shocked, stood up and drew her sword, glaring at Li Chen, shouting, "Li Chen, what are you doing? If you disrespect the Witch God again, do you really think I won’t kill you?"

"Hehe, look for yourself, is this statue’s owner really the Witch God you worship day and night?"

Li Chen glanced sidelong at Lian Hongshang, pointed at the statue, and smiled lightly.

Lian Hongshang looked up, and what she saw made her feel as if the world was collapsing.

The plaster on the exterior of the statue had peeled off, revealing a crystal-clear jade statue.

The owner of the jade statue was a beautiful young woman.

Her face was like a peach blossom, her figure graceful, and her skin was clear and radiant, shining brightly in the reflected light. A haze of clouds seemed to gather behind her, like an immortal not partaking in the mortal coil, ethereal and otherworldly.

Such a transcendent immortal had a pair of bright, captivating eyes, possessing a soul-stirring demeanor that made one’s Divine Soul turn upside down.

Lian Hongshang looked somewhat bewildered, "Who is she, and how might she be in this Witch God Hall?"

After a thought, Li Chen said, "She should be the first Divine Woman of the Witch God Sect and also the female protagonist of Wushan Cloud Rain, Yaoji!"

Lian Hongshang was so stunned she was speechless, her pretty face clearly etched with disbelief.

After a long while, she finally asked, "I am the current Divine Woman of the Witch God Sect, and even I don’t know about these things. You’re an outsider, how could you possibly know?"

Li Chen pointed to the statue and said, "She told me!"

Lian Hongshang rolled her eyes, clearly not believing Li Chen’s nonsense.

However, she didn’t pursue the matter any further, simply staring blankly.

After a long silence, she finally looked at Li Chen with a flushed face, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s.

"Do we really have to... perform Wushan Cloud Rain to leave this place?"
