Chapter 2153: Chapter 2014: Peach and Plum Throughout the World, None Compare to the Scholar’s Blossom!

Supreme Elder!

Upon hearing these four words, Chu Xuanji backstage trembled violently!

He never expected Ye Fan would place him so highly?

In terms of strength, although he is considered top-notch among those from Earth in the entire Central Plains Sacred Land.

But compared to Ye Fan’s friends, his strength is truly too weak... too weak...

A cultivator at the early stage of the True Essence Realm is common across the Xuan Realm, being a Supreme Elder of a Sacred Land is quite out of place.

Throughout these days, through casual conversations with Ye Fan’s friends, he has roughly understood this world.

This is a vast boundless world, with various sects, sacred lands, dynasties, ancient families, and Di Clans standing tall, which force does not have powerful foundations to support it?

The so-called Supreme Elder’s strength might not be greater than the Saint’s, but certainly not weaker than the Saint.

However—

His position as Supreme Elder, compared to the Guest Elders, is inferior in strength, leaving his proud heart of an Evil Emperor feeling somewhat sour.

Without a doubt, if on Earth, his level of cultivation would be more than sufficient to become a Supreme Elder, but this is not Earth, this is a world heavily reliant on cultivation, filled with Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, such strength, as a Supreme Elder, indeed is hard to win over the populace.

"Wha... what’s happening?"

Not only him, but Chu Ji was also stunned. Her cultivation was merely at the mid-stage of the War God Realm, and even after consuming Saint-level Xuan Beast Meat Pulp, her breakthrough was only to the late-stage of the War God Realm, making her a Great Elder? Don’t be ridiculous.

But—

At this point, they can only wait for the ceremony to end to inquire Ye Fan, unable to disrupt the event.

Ye Fan’s words have been spoken, no matter how many queries they have, they can only set them aside temporarily, stepping forward to the front of the Ancient Hall.

"This..."

At that moment, the scene was in uproar!

Everyone was shocked.

Present were all kinds of heroic lords, hundreds of years old and some even over a thousand, at the very least of Saint Lord Level cultivation.

And the two stepping from behind the screen seemed no older than a hundred years, appearing as juniors in the eyes of these old monsters, yet possessing only True Essence Realm cultivation, how is this possible?

They believe either Ye Fan has gone mad, or they themselves are crazy.

The founding of a sacred land is extremely serious and absolutely does not allow any foolishness.

Yet the scene before them made them doubt life itself, clearly, these were two True Essence Realm cultivators!

How could they possibly be Supreme Elders and Great Elders of the Central Plains Sacred Land?!

Even those non-mainstream sects should have their Supreme Elder as a strong person at the Holy Embryo Realm, right?

For a moment, the entire Xuankong Island was silent, all heroic lords were stunned by this scene.

And as the protagonists of this matter, Evil Emperor Chu Xuanji and Witch Chu Ji were as if sitting on pins and needles.

This brat, isn’t he just roasting us over a fire?

The Evil Emperor, after all, is an Evil Emperor, experienced and knowledgeable, even in such unfavorable circumstances, still appeared very calm, with a demeanor as if Taishan crumbles before him yet his expression remains unchanged.

Having died once, he already sees everything lightly, unmoved by honor or disgrace, observing flowers blooming and falling before the courtyard, indifferent to coming or going, watching clouds rolling and unrolling across the sky, he quite holds the demeanor of a high-level recluse.

Whereas Chu Ji was different, she appeared somewhat uneasy, even as a generation’s witch, under the gaze of so many Saint Lord level strong people, she felt somewhat unaccustomed.

After all, under the pressure of Saint Lord level, she found it difficult to maintain the calmness of the Evil Emperor.

"Saint Ye, although I don’t want to cause trouble on such a joyous day, I still wish you could provide an explanation, why are these two appointed as Supreme Elder and Great Elder?" A heroic lord asked.

"Indeed, Saint Ye, please give us an explanation."

"If people of such cultivation can become Supreme Elder, then is a Supreme Elder of the Central Plains Sacred Land really worth mentioning?"

With someone leading, other heroic lords also spoke, hoping Ye Fan could provide a reasonable explanation.

After all, in their eyes, making two True Essence Realm ants the Supreme Elder and Great Elder is inconceivable, and for a Sacred Land, it’s extremely irresponsible.

What is the foundation of a Sacred Land’s power and heritage?

It’s the strength of its core members. If the core members are too weak, the Sacred Land definitely will not last long.

"Everyone, please stay calm!"

Ye Fan gestured with his hands to suppress the chaotic voices and said, "I understand this arrangement raises questions among all friends, but allow me to explain."

"Alright, let’s hear how Saint Ye explains!"

The heroic lord who questioned earlier spoke.

In their view, Ye Fan’s actions were akin to child’s play, letting True Essence Realm ants become Great Elder and Supreme Elder, how can this rally the masses?

If the Central Plains Sacred Land only boasts such strength, it truly does not need to exist, equating to inviting humiliation upon themselves.

"Everyone is unaware that in the world I was born in, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi is sparse, cultivation is difficult, achieving the True Essence Realm already is very rare..."

Ye Fan spoke eloquently, explaining Earth’s environment to everyone, of course, he didn’t mention Earth specifically, only described it as a world with scarce Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

After learning this, those heroic lords suddenly realized, and couldn’t help but marvel, in such an environment, cultivating was already difficult, striving to reach profound levels was nearly impossible.

Even the True Essence Realm is a legendary realm, making them find it unbelievable. How can one cultivate in such an environment?

It’s simply a desperate land!

Then, Ye Fan continued to say, "Evil Emperor Chu Xuanji is my mentor. It was he who led me onto the path of cultivation, so I cannot forget my roots. Even if he is not as powerful as everyone here, in my heart, he is the greatest, fully deserving the title of Supreme Elder!"

"As for Great Elder Chu Ji, she is my aunt and also my senior sister, the person closest to me. I’m not afraid of others accusing me of nepotism. In my opinion, she is overqualified as the Great Elder. If not for the fact of respecting my mentor’s precedence, I would’ve wished her to be the Supreme Elder of Central Plains Sacred Land."

"Now, does anyone have any questions?"

Ye Fan glanced at the heroic lords seated on the embroidered stools and asked calmly.

Filial piety in serving parents is the foundation of humans!

What more could they say? Dare they say anything?

No matter how loudly they protested, this was still an internal affair of Central Plains Sacred Land, with none of their business involved. Their previous doubts were merely out of curiosity.

Now, Ye Fan had explained clearly that both Chu Xuanji and Chu Ji are his close relations. Appointing them as Supreme Elder and Great Elder was perfectly reasonable.

As for the future and destiny of Central Plains Sacred Land, it was none of their concern. With Ye Fan overseeing, who would dare to provoke without reckoning?

Unless they seek their own doom!

Moreover, the Mountain Protection Array of Central Plains Sacred Land is immensely strong. Without permission, even a Quasi-Emperor level strong person attempting to force their way in would face great difficulty.

Under such circumstances, Central Plains Sacred Land is as strong as a fortress. The strength of the Supreme Elder is of no concern.

Additionally, they could see that, despite both Chu Xuanji and Chu Ji being of advanced age, which is adverse to cultivation, their vitality remained strong, and their cultivation talent was rare even in a thousand years.

In a world where the Dao was high and the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was barren and heavily suppressed, they managed to reach the True Essence Realm, defying fate. In this world, they would only find it favorable. Their cultivation was bound to experience a terrifying surge.

Even though they were monstrous talents, unlikely to make staggering progress still, the thought made their hearts race.

This is a group of tiger and wolf cubs. Once grown, they will surely roar across the Xuan Realm. Who could block their path?

It can be said that Central Plains Sacred Land has no mediocre wh e all good seedlings for cultivation. If they were in these forces, they would surely be treated as seed contenders for the Saint Heir.

"Paying respects to the Supreme Elder and Great Elder of Central Plains Sacred Land!"

The group of heroic lords, shrewd as they were, with keen eyes, understood from Ye Fan’s explanation, promptly rose, cupping hands to greet Chu Xuanji and Chu Ji.

"What is happening?"

Chu Ji was utterly bewildered. A group of god-like Saint Lords was actually saluting her. Was she dreaming?

She had been in this world for some days, naturally knowing what it means to be the Saint Lord of a Sacred Land, filling her heart with myriad emotions.

Chu Xuanji was likewise struggling to hold back tears, accepting the greetings from everyone, a strong emotion surging in his heart.

Having all the promising students in one’s tutelage is less valuable than having the number one scholar bloom!

He had always considered Ye Fan his most proud disciple, and now he realized he had underestimated him.

At this moment, Ye Fan had truly matured, not only becoming Earth’s savior but also a leading figure in the Xuan Realm!

Watching his disciple grow, strengthen, and surpass him far beyond, Chu Xuanji felt brimmed with pride and satisfaction.

He knew the reason the heroic lords acted as such was out of respect for Ye Fan. It was Ye Fan who earned him the respect of the lords!

Even in the underworld, he could rest in peace and face Ye Fan’s mother with dignity.

In this moment, he had no regrets for life!

Later, when Ye Hei, Lv Zhan, and others emerged, it caused another wave of exclamations among the heroic lords.

To them, whether it be Ye Hei or Lv Zhan, or even Su Jindi, they were all outstanding talents, excellent cultivation prospects.

Such excellent prospects all gathered in Central Plains Sacred Land, inciting envy among them.

If not for having some Quasi-Emperors present, they would have immediately taken action to snatch them. Grabbing such a prospect brought immeasurable benefits to their sect’s development.

And when the cultivation seedlings brought by Ye Fan from Earth appeared, all the heroic lords were completely stunned, eyes shining, breathing heavily.

At this moment, their hearts were filled with jealousy and confusion.

Why?

Why is it that Ye Fan’s Central Plains Sacred Land could attract so many cultivation prodigies?

Is it possible that the world Ye Fan comes from is the primordial source of the universe?

The homeland of immortals, perhaps?

Otherwise, how could there be so many spiritually powerful children with remarkable constitutions?

At this moment, their jealousy was almost driving them to curse.

Indeed, comparing yourselves to others can be infuriating!

They exhausted their efforts, trying every possible method, selecting from countless individuals, yet they could not choose a single satisfactory spiritual child. Meanwhile, Ye Fan’s Central Plains Sacred Land had gathered so many spiritual children in one sweep. This defies logic!

In less than twenty years, Central Plains Sacred Land is destined to become the most brilliant and dazzling Sacred Land in all of the Xuan Realm.

At this moment, it was as if they could see the future...
