Supernatural Insight Eyes-Chapter 1921 - 1922: Observe a Little Longer! (First Update)
"Turquoise Pool!"
The voice of the Holy Mother of Turquoise Pool echoed in the mind of the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden, causing her heart and spirit to tremble. The Holy Mother’s authority compelled her to leave a message and obediently return to the Holy Mother’s side.
"Sorry, I mistook you for someone else; you’re not him."
In an instant, the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden sat back at her original position, as if the incident just now had never happened.
Everyone around, whether they were Saint Heirs or Holy Maidens, focused their gaze on Ye Qiu; just now, due to words from the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden, everyone became unusually curious about Ye Qiu.
As a result, the next moment, the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden claimed she had mistaken someone else, causing many Saint Heirs to exhale a breath of relief, feeling a sense of release.
Luckily, Ye Qiu wasn’t the person the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden recognized; otherwise, wouldn’t that mean their goddess had someone she was infatuated with?
However, upon rethinking, even if Ye Qiu wasn’t the one, who was he?
"Hmph, I almost thought he was about to fly to the top and become a phoenix; fortunately, the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden got the wrong person." Zhou Quan commented with slight jealousy from the side.
As for the surrounding Saint Heirs, they no longer particularly focused on Ye Qiu. Occasionally, a few cast him unfriendly glances, yet some Holy Maidens were quite curious about Ye Qiu.
Li Jin, sitting beside Ye Qiu, looked at him dazedly. From the start, his impression of Ye Qiu was that of someone naive and a bit foolish, but afterward, Ye Qiu produced a considerable amount of star coins and led him to ascend the celestial platform. Furthermore, just moments ago, the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden personally stood in front of Ye Qiu because of him.
Li Jin found he increasingly couldn’t understand Ye Qiu, someone he thought he had seen through at a glance, only to realize from the beginning, he hadn’t understood him at all.
In Li Jin’s eyes, Ye Qiu became ever more mysterious, and each time he managed to surprise him.
At this time, Ye Qiu felt exceedingly astonished inside; he hadn’t expected the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden to almost recognize him with just a glance. If his identity were exposed here, leaving might become an issue. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
Luckily, he had altered his appearance; otherwise, if news of his presence at the ancestral land got out, it would surely ignite a massive storm.
Both the Taiyi God Sect and the Demon God Sect were eager to execute him a thousand times.
"What a close call, what a close call."
Ye Qiu sighed repeatedly in his heart, maintaining an outward calm demeanor. It was fortunate he wasn’t too familiar with the Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden; otherwise, just one look would identify him.
The Turquoise Pool Holy Maiden’s mistaken identity incident became a minor episode at the Fan Peach Banquet, and the gathering continued.
Unable to find news of the women, Ye Qiu could only go with the flow and attend the banquet to its end.
Following the opening from the Holy Mother of Turquoise Pool, everyone finally got to eat the fan peaches, which had been tantalizing to Li Jin beside him.
People around started munching on fan peaches; Ye Qiu also took a bite and was instantly enchanted. It was the tastiest peach he’d ever eaten, thin-skinned, fleshy, sweet, and juicy, melting upon entering the mouth, an exquisite earthly delight.
"This delicacy should only exist in the heavens; how seldom does one experience it on earth. Good peach, good peach!"
"A single fan peach adds ten years of life, worthy of the Turquoise Pool fan peach, true to its reputation."
Anyone who ate a fan peach couldn’t help but praise it. The fan peach was indeed extraordinary, akin to a divine medicine; upon entrance, it transforms into massive energy, permeating every part of the body for silent enhancement.
"Unfortunately, one can only eat up to ten; beyond that, they’re of no use."
"Eating one fan peach suffices for a lifetime."
Such exclamations came naturally from those who ascended the Turquoise Pool celestial platform with Ye Qiu. For the Saint Heirs, who had witnessed many grand events, they just ate it indifferently, without much surprise.
Such things, for Saint Heirs, were optional, providing little assistance.
But in the eyes of Loose Cultivators, it was definitely a treasure.
Listening to the youths who climbed the celestial platform marvel at the fan peach’s extraordinariness, several Saint Heirs on the other side displayed faint smiles.
"Such country bumpkins, never seen anything good; they think climbing the celestial platform grants them the merit to sit alongside us, truly ignorant."
"Yuan Dao Saint Heir, you must understand not everyone has seen various rare treasures as we have."
"Indeed, indeed, I was narrow-minded, haha..."
The Saint Heirs talked lazily, without regard for the people they were discussing, entirely unafraid of them overhearing.
For the Saint Heirs, mocking these Loose Cultivators was entirely legitimate. Who were they? Saint Heirs, the most talented figures of various sects and schools. These Loose Cultivators merely ascended the easily conquered Turquoise Pool celestial platform, not qualified to sit alongside them.
Yang Ce and the others remained silent for the moment; in truth, they were annoyed too. But what could they do, considering the disparity between the two? If Saint Heirs ridiculed them, all they could do was swallow their grievances, being mere Loose Cultivators, unable to compare.
"Some people, self-proclaimed as superior, are simply relying on the forces behind them. In my opinion, some are just lucky, born into influential sects. Had they been born into poor families, who knows how they’d turn out."
"Self-assured with some prowess, they overlook this and disdain that, unaware their ancestors’ mightiest generations also grew from weaklings, and back then, in others’ eyes, their proud ancestors were the same as ants."
Ye Qiu’s voice clearly reached the ears of those Saint Heirs, immediately causing several to glare coldly at him. Were it not for this being the Turquoise Pool sacred ground, they might have acted by now.
Ye Qiu originally didn’t want to speak, but the words from these Saint Heirs were just too unpleasant, even including contempt directed at him. Yang Ce and the others dared not speak, but Ye Qiu wasn’t afraid of any Saint Heir; back then, the so-called top Saint Heirs were merely his defeated opponents.
Though Ye Qiu’s words were light, everyone present heard them. Such remarks provoked surprise among some Saint Heirs and offended others.
Especially Yuan Dao Saint Heir and others, who had an attitude of settling things with Ye Qiu.
Yang Ce and the others glanced at Ye Qiu; most among them deeply agreed with Ye Qiu’s words, simultaneously gaining some goodwill for him, thinking Ye Qiu was commendable.
However, Yang Ce personally thought Ye Qiu was too rash. Saying such words might have been satisfying but offended the Saint Heirs, which was highly imprudent.
Due to a twinge of jealousy over Ye Qiu’s first ascent to the celestial platform, Yang Ce felt, instead, it was beneficial for him.
Present among the elderly at the Fan Peach Banquet venue, Miao Shan looked over at Ye Qiu in the distance, feeling that this young man suited his taste, entertaining thoughts of accepting a disciple.
Nonetheless, he wasn’t in a hurry, opting to observe a bit more.
