Chapter 359 – Now That’s What I Call a Maidservant

“I should be thanking you!” Emperor Dao Hen said, genuinely impressed.

The depth of Lu Ye’s understanding of Dao was simply breathtaking.

It was truly shocking.

He comprehended the Eternal Dao, and to his surprise, Lu Ye understood the Eternal Dao as well.

In less than a month of discussing Dao, he had already pinpointed the core of his Dao and asked questions that were razor-sharp, striking directly at the heart of the matter.

The questions made Emperor Dao Hen’s scalp tingle.

It seemed that the two were evenly matched in their discussions, but Emperor Dao Hen was quite clear on the specifics.

He could only say, truly worthy of the Celestial Lord!

After feeding the greatest Dao he mastered to the Tree of Enlightenment, it remained so powerful that it was awe-inspiring.

At that moment, the Tree of Enlightenment was practically going crazy.

Oh, how blessed am I! How did I earn the privilege of witnessing such exquisite discussions on Dao?

It didn’t even know how much it had grown!

Now it was increasingly grateful for the choice it had made in the Genius Ancient Battlefield!

Hanging out with the master meant no worries about food and drink!

Lu Ye casually put away the Tree of Enlightenment.

“With the discussions over, let’s get drunk, Fellow Daoist, please join me for a feast!”

Emperor Dao Hen said with a smile.

Lu Ye had been ready to take his leave but raised an eyebrow at the invitation.

“Well, I won’t hold back then.”

An imperial feast, you can only imagine how sumptuous the spread would be—anything would benefit Lu Ye immensely right now.

Soon, dishes of exquisite food were brought in by the maidservants, each dish radiating a mysterious shimmer, and the maidservants were all stunningly beautiful, their presence far more powerful than Lu Ye’s.

You could say that any one of these maidservants could easily take Lu Ye down.

Yet, Lu Ye accepted their services calmly.

Shortly after, a group of graceful, mesmerizing women approached, swaying elegantly with their breathtaking figures.

A fragrant aura surrounded them, infused with the scents of wine, gourmet food, and that sweet fragrance of cosmetics.

Now, that’s what I call maidservants!

As Lu Ye thought of Chu Ling and gazed at these maidservants, he couldn’t help but sigh.

I just want to eat, eat, eat!

I just want to drink, drink, drink!

Before long, every pore on Lu Ye was radiating brilliance.

His hair became crystal-clear, and boundless energy flowed through his physique.

The energy was overwhelming.

Seeing this, Emperor Dao Hen understood. Lu Ye must be averse to women, so he waved his hand to send the maidservants away.

“Huh? Why send them away?” Lu Ye asked curiously.

“Does Fellow Daoist dislike them?”

“Well, I can’t say I’m bothered.”

Emperor Dao Hen realized, of course, at such a level, how could one be shaken by some women’s betrayal?

“Continue with the music and the dance!”

“Fellow Daoist, I’m curious. Since you’ve returned through time, what was your relationship with the Heavenly Gate in your previous life?” Emperor Dao Hen asked with intrigue.

Lu Ye candidly replied.

“Our relationship was quite good; I’d say we were like blood brothers!”

Yeah, as in he was born, and the Heavenly Gate bit the dust!

“I see, but how could the Heavenly Dao, being all about fairness, be willing to help you?”

“The Heavenly Dao is indeed fair; however, if your strength is sufficient, you’ll be quite close to the Heavenly Dao. At that point, the often impartial Heavenly Dao can show emotional fluctuations influenced by people.”

Is that how it works?

Emperor Dao Hen wasn’t sure if what Lu Ye said was accurate; after all, he hadn’t reached such a level yet.

Of course not; this was just Lu Ye pulling his leg.

If the Heavenly Dao wasn’t your System, no matter how much you babbled, it wouldn’t help you.

It’s just that the System has a conscience, or you could say it thinks like a normal person.

Lu Ye’s concept of Guarding the Great Dao is deeply rooted because even at the moment of betrayal, he thought of helping his old buddy one last time during the final Self-Detonation.

The System having a normal mindset would be moved by such a scene!

Not everyone in this world is like those eight people.

“So, Fellow Daoist, could you share a bit about what may happen in the future?”

Lu Ye looked at him. “Haven’t you been able to traverse the River of Time? Isn’t knowing the future easy for you?”

Emperor Dao Hen chuckled bitterly. “I can only glimpse a corner of the future; how could I be like Fellow Daoist, coming back directly from the future?”

The Emperor could already roam the River of Time freely.

It was just that going back was easy, while moving forward was hard.

Knowing the past but not the future.

Lu Ye pondered for a while.

“Actually, I shouldn’t tell you this, but since you treated me to this meal…”

“If I were to say, you should practice top-tier defensive techniques, else you’ll be in serious trouble when under siege.”

Emperor Dao Hen’s expression changed slightly.

“What do you mean, Fellow Daoist?”

Lu Ye straightforwardly nodded.

Yes, you are going to fall!

Emperor Dao Hen furrowed his brows tightly.

“Of course, practicing top-notch defensive magical techniques is just precautionary. Since I have returned this time, significant changes have already occurred compared to before, so who knows what will happen?”

Emperor Dao Hen thoughtfully nodded.

Surrounded by many foes… it seems he would die in battle in the future.

If he died in battle, and Lu Ye does not help, that means Lu Ye’s relationship with the Heavenly Gate in the past really was not particularly good.

No!

It could even be described as bad!

Because the concept of Guarding the Great Dao undeniably represents goodness. Given the current environment, only a few places could potentially encircle him to death.

Being a good person, it was obvious that Lu Ye not helping him indicated their past relationship with the Heavenly Gate was not harmonious.

Somehow, now he has become the leader of the Heavenly Gate; truly, fate is unpredictable!

After enjoying a sumptuous meal, Lu Ye didn’t divulge too much but did give him a magical technique named the Eternal Shield of Ten Thousand Ways!

What he offered to Emperor Dao Hen was naturally the supreme magical technique.

Lu Ye finally stood up to take his leave.

He was headed back to the Fourth Heaven to Cross Tribulation and ascend to the Fifth Heaven.

“If you have questions, Fellow Daoist can contact me anytime through the Heavenly Patterns! But the journey is long; be cautious.”

“Alright, farewell!”

“Take care!”

Lu Ye walked out of the palace.

In that instant, a massive beast claw, seemingly capable of grasping the entire void, reached for Lu Ye.

The terrifying aura made the universe grow silent.

Time stopped moving forward.

It’s the Great Emperor!

A Great Emperor was attacking Lu Ye.

Lu Ye’s mind nearly halted at that moment, but because he possessed the heart of Dao, he didn’t freeze completely but could only watch helplessly as that massive beast claw approached rapidly, unable to respond in any way.

“Some guts you’ve got!”

Emperor Dao Hen roared with anger; Lu Ye had just stepped out of his mansion and was already under attack—what a slap in the face!

Simultaneously, a giant palm shot up to the sky, colliding with the beast claw. At that moment, the void shattered completely, and Chaos surged violently, the indescribable ripple quickly spreading beyond the realm.

“Attacking the palace of Emperor Dao Hen is already giving you enough face. This time it’s not just me wanting Lu Ye; don’t get yourself mistaken.” A black tendril silently emerged, aiming to take Lu Ye away.

But a beam of light shattered the tendril.

Emperor Dao Hen appeared in front of Lu Ye, his gaze fierce.

Three auras slightly weaker than the Emperor arose, forming a triangular formation surrounding Emperor Dao Hen; they were top-notch powerhouses from alien tribes.

Emperor Dao Hen’s eyes were cold. “You leave first, I’ll take care of them!”

“Alright!”
