55: Jiang Yourong's plan is to achieve another breakthrough in enlightenment!

Jiang Yourong didn't expect that just by making a suggestion and slightly altering the future, she would receive such an unexpected surprise.

"It can only be said that Young Master and Senior Sister Lingxue are such a perfect match, which is why things developed this way."

She felt both expectant and joyful, yet carried a deep sense of envy.

At the same time, she felt a faint sense of superiority over Luo Jinghong.

Jiang Yourong thought to herself triumphantly: "Did you see that, Elder Luo? This is what you call effective matchmaking.

In this regard, you still need to learn a thing or two from me."

In her view, Luo Jinghong's method was too direct; not only could it not facilitate progress, but it might even cause resistance from both parties.

One must be like her, creating opportunities for contact for both parties, and then letting things develop naturally—that is the brilliant plan.

"Hmm... Regardless, this plan was a success far beyond expectations. I can start thinking about the next plan..."

Jiang Yourong crossed her arms, then raised a hand to touch her crystal-clear, smooth chin, lost in thought: "Since I can see future Opportunities, how about I have Young Master perform a rescue of a damsel in distress? Or perhaps Senior Sister Lingxue could save the hero instead.

Maybe I can create a moment for Young Master to showcase himself. Could I find an Opportunity during the Holy Son Coronation Ceremony in over a month?"

...

Just as Jiang Yourong was silently planning in her heart, on the Preaching Platform, those Chentian Pavilion Disciple with low cultivation and insufficient Comprehension Ability woke up one by one.

They saw Gu Qingchen sitting cross-legged in the Void Realm, the Domain behind him becoming increasingly real and grand.

And Jiang Lingxue's Domain had almost completely merged into Gu Qingchen's Domain; one could no longer even see the traces of what were originally two separate Domains.

Their Qi connected, one Yin and one Yang, actually forming the image of a Yin and Yang Taiji diagram within the Domain.

The Yin and Yang fish swam slowly, while the two sat at the eyes of the fish.

This was the manifestation of Yang reaching its extreme to produce Yin, and Yin reaching its extreme to produce Yang.

"Looking at it this way, Saintess and Senior Brother Gu really are a perfect match..."

"No wonder Elder Luo wanted to play matchmaker. Even I think they look like a match made in heaven now."

"From now on, I also support Saintess and Senior Brother Gu being together. I declare that Saintess is my sister!"

"Tsk tsk, keep your little thoughts to yourself. Don't think we don't know what you're thinking."

"Hmph, don't you want that too?"

"..."

After waking up, the women either whispered to each other or communicated via secret voice transmission.

At this moment, Zhao Linger also woke up from her meditation.

Seeing this, she began to organize the Disciple who had already woken up to leave in an orderly fashion, so as not to disturb those remaining who were still gaining Dao insights.

As time passed, more and more people woke up.

Soon, the only ones left on the Preaching Platform gaining Dao insights were Gu Qingchen, Jiang Lingxue, and Huang Liner.

Among these three, even Gu Qingchen, who had the lowest cultivation, had just achieved a Breakthrough to the Nine Heavens of the Dao Profound Realm. His understanding of the Dao was even more profound, and his time for Dao insight was exceptionally long.

Unknown how much time passed, the aura on Gu Qingchen's body changed again, and a Concept of Great Perfection and great wish-fulfillment radiated outward!

Under the influence of this Concept, the cultivation of Jiang Lingxue and Huang Liner, which had already reached its limit, also began to Breakthrough one after another.

...

Meanwhile, at the Ye Family ancestral grounds.

The members of the Ye Family gathered once again.

After learning all the detailed information about Gu Qingchen and all the grudges between the Ye Family and him, Ye Tianlan's expression became even more solemn.

"Are you saying that this Gu Qingchen only joined the Holy Land twelve years ago and is only twenty years old this year?! Are you sure the information is correct?"

Even though he had already confirmed the accuracy of the information once, Ye Tianlan still found it hard to believe.

He just felt as if he had been in seclusion for too long and no longer recognized this world.

Even Han Tianyuan back in the day wasn't this fierce.

Back then, Han Tianyuan also joined the Holy Land at eight years old, but only broke through to the first small Realm of the three Spirit Realms—the Spirit Origin Realm—at fourteen.

Afterward, he reached the Spirit Sea Realm at sixteen, the Spirit Soul Realm at nineteen, and it took a full twenty-two years to break through to the Tongxuan Realm.

Even that was hailed as a peerless Prodigy rarely seen in the Xuantian Holy Land in ten thousand years, and he was regarded as the next Supreme.

Yet Gu Qingchen is only twenty, and he has already Cultivated to the Late Stage of the Dao Profound Realm.

Compared to him, even Han Tianyuan is far inferior; the two simply cannot be compared.

"Just a few months ago, the strength he displayed to the outside world was still at the Nine Heavens of the Spirit Soul Realm..."

An Elder of the Ye Family added in a low voice.

Hearing this, Ye Tianlan glanced at him as if looking at an idiot.

"Are you suggesting that this kid, in just a few months, has broken through dozens of small Realms and three major Realms from the Nine Heavens of the Spirit Soul Realm to arrive at the Late Stage of the Dao Profound Realm?"

"Ahem."

The Ye Family Patriarch coughed lightly and said: "That should be impossible; no one can do that. We suspect he had hidden his strength before and was already at the Grand Perfection of the Profound Grotto Realm months ago, and perhaps even had a deep accumulation at that Realm, which is why he could Breakthrough repeatedly during this battle at the Heavenly Punishment Stage."

"Hmm."

Ye Tianlan nodded, clearly agreeing with this point of view.

"However, even so, his Aptitude is still too terrifying. Under normal circumstances, he has hope of becoming a Supreme within a thousand years, and even the Yuan Zun and Heaven Zun above the Supreme will not be able to stop him."

Hearing Ye Tianlan's words, everyone in the Ye Family nodded, clearly agreeing with this view.

After all, many of the things Gu Qingchen has displayed now even surpass the Great Emperor Xuantian at the same age!

They seemed to see a future Great Emperor rising!

But the problem is, such a Prodigy with unlimited prospects is an enemy of their Ye Family.

"This child's talent is too terrifying; he must not be left alive."

Ye Tianlan made his decision.

Immediately, a relaxed smile appeared on his face: "Fortunately, he is courting death himself and set a five-year agreement."

"Exactly."

The other Elder of the Ye Family also laughed easily.

Provoking such a young enemy with unlimited potential—if he cannot be eliminated in time, it is a disaster that could destroy the Family.

If not for this five-year agreement, their Ye Family would have to risk everything to assassinate him!

Even if it meant betraying the Holy Land!

But now that there is a safer and less costly solution, there is no need to be so extreme.

"Still too young, hasn't suffered enough."

Ye Tianlan shook his head: "Back then, it took me over a thousand years to Breakthrough to the Saint Realm. Even if he is Heaven-Defying, it will take him at least a hundred years to cross the threshold of the Saint Realm."

"That kid just has slightly better cultivation Aptitude; in other areas, he is far inferior to the Second Ancestor."

"Enough."

Seeing the Ye Family members preparing to flatter, Ye Tianlan waved his hand directly: "No need to say these useless things. Let's think about whether there is an Opportunity to kill that kid in advance. After all, no one can say for sure what will happen in five years. What if someone invites the Emperor's son to wield the xuantian treasure mirror and saves him in the end?"
