Covering the Heavens: Fishing for the Heavens Starting from the Great Accomplished Holy Body

"Purple aura surrounds the body, and the Dao seal shines brightly; this is a primordial Dao embryo!"

"That attire, that aura... they're fairies from the Purple Mansion Holy Land! And the one at the head, could she be the legendary Purple Mansion Holy Maiden, Fairy Zixia?!"

Inside the hall, several very old elders of the grotto-heaven recognized the newcomer's identity.

Their voices trembled as they hurriedly bowed and said, "We were unaware of the arrival of the Holy Maiden of the Purple Palace. Please forgive our failure to greet you properly!"

Purple Mansion Sacred Land!

Purple Cloud Saintess!

These words struck like a thunderclap in everyone's hearts.

Compared to the Purple Mansion Holy Land, the six great grotto heavens of Yan are like earthen fortresses compared to an imperial city—they are simply not on the same level.

Who would have thought that a key figure in such a behemoth would personally visit this remote town?

Fairy Zixia nodded slightly in return, but her gaze did not linger on the trembling elders.

Her eyes, clear as autumn water yet seemingly containing the starry sky, calmly fell upon Li Qingchen.

"Such pure Yi Wood Azure Dragon origin is almost innate and is extremely rare in the world."

Zixia spoke, her voice still cold, yet carrying an undeniable air of authority, "Young lady, I am Zixia of the Purple Mansion Holy Land. You possess bloodlines destined for the Great Dao of the Purple Mansion. Would you be willing to return to the mountain with me and become my disciple?"

These words shocked everyone in the room.

The Holy Maiden of the Purple Mansion personally accepted a disciple!

What an honor!

The elders of the cave dwelling, who had been arguing just moments before, fell silent instantly, their faces filled with only bitter smiles and envy.

They fought tooth and nail, but in the face of the Purple Mansion Holy Land, they were utterly outmatched.

Li Qingchen was taken aback by the sudden invitation and subconsciously looked at Ye Fan and Pang Bo.

Ye Fan was also shocked, but he quickly calmed down.

He stepped forward and bowed respectfully: "Junior Ye Fan greets Fairy Zixia."

"May I ask, Fairy, what arrangements will be made if my sister Qingchen accompanies you? Also, I wonder about my brother Pang Bo..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.

Zixia then looked over.

Her gaze lingered on Ye Fan for a moment, as if sensing something. Her delicate brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, but she quickly regained her composure.

"The rules of the Purple Mansion Holy Land are very strict. According to custom, the lineage I lead only accepts female disciples."

Her voice was calm, yet it cut off all other possibilities: "I can take this girl back to the Holy Land and personally teach her, passing on my Purple Mansion True Method. With her aptitude, if she cultivates diligently without ceasing, her future achievements will be limitless. She may even become the true successor of my lineage, a future candidate for Holy Maiden!"

Future Saintess Candidate!

This word made the elders of the cave dwelling gasp again.

This is practically a reserved seat for the Holy Land's successor.

This promise is too heavy!

"As for the two of you,"

Zixia looked at Ye Fan and Pang Bo, "Although the bloodline of the Demon God is not bad, the rules of my lineage cannot be broken."

Her gaze returned to Ye Fan, her tone still calm, yet seemingly meaningful: "The Ancient Sacred Body... your destiny is deeply entangled, and your future is uncertain. Although my Purple Mansion Sacred Land is vast, it has its own rules, and we cannot make an exception for you."

Your opportunity lies elsewhere!

The point has been made very clear.

She only had eyes for Li Qingchen, and could only accept Li Qingchen as her partner.

Upon hearing this, Li Qingchen immediately shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, I want to be with Brother Ye and Brother Pang Bo. Dad said I can stay with Brother Ye!"

Ye Fan's mind raced with thoughts.

Purple Mansion Sacred Land!

From the almost panicked reactions of these elders of the grotto-heavens, and from the strange phenomena that filled the sky, he understood what a transcendent existence this was.

The holy maiden of this sacred place personally accepted a disciple, and the promise she made was so weighty.

For Qingchen, this was an unimaginable opportunity.

He took a deep breath, then suddenly stood on tiptoe and patted Li Qingchen's shoulder, looking into her eyes and saying, "Qingchen, listen to what Brother Ye has to say. The Purple Mansion Holy Land where this Fairy Zixia resides is an extremely powerful place, far more powerful than the Spirit Ruins Cave Heaven we might be going to."

"If you follow her, you can learn the most advanced skills and use the best resources. You will definitely become extremely powerful in the future."

"But Dad told me to come with you..."

Li Qingchen's emerald green eyes were filled with confusion.

No matter how capable someone is, can they be as capable as their father?

......

"Uncle Li wants you to come with me because he wants what's best for you."

Ye Fan patiently explained, "There are better places to go now. How can I, Brother Ye, hold you back because of my own affairs?"

"Think about it, if you become incredibly powerful in the Purple Mansion Holy Land, you'll be able to protect us much better in the future. Besides, it's not like we'll never see each other again."

"You should go and learn your skills properly with Fairy Zixia first. Once Pang Bo and I have established ourselves in Lingxu Cave, we will definitely find a way to visit you, or you can come find us after you have completed your training, okay?"

Pang Bo chimed in, "Qingchen, Yezi is right, that's the Purple Mansion Holy Land! If you go there and become a powerful female cultivator, I'll be so proud. Don't worry, Yezi and I will definitely cultivate with all our might and never let you down."

Looking at the two "little boys" in front of her, who had shrunk to the size of eleven or twelve years old but were extremely earnest, Li Qingchen blinked her emerald green eyes and suddenly burst out laughing.

She stepped forward, reached out, and patted Ye Fan's shoulder first, then patted Pang Bo's shoulder.

Her movements were relaxed and natural, and with her current graceful figure, she even had the air of an "older sister" taking care of a "younger brother".

"Look at the two of you now,"

She bent down, leaned closer to the two "little boys," and gave them a sly smile. "Now you should call me 'big sister,' right? Especially you, Xiao Ye~"

She deliberately dragged out the title "Xiao Ye," a mischievous glint in her eyes.

Ye Fan looked at the smiling "girl" so close to him, his lips twitched, and he was speechless.

He recalled their first meeting at Uncle Li's old house, when the girl had insisted on being the "older sister," which he had refuted. Little did he know that the tables had turned, and she was now waiting for him here.

Pang Bo scratched his head and chuckled, "Alright, Qingchen, no, Qingchen! Once I've regained my former majestic and powerful form, we'll see who protects whom!"

"Then I'll wait and see!"

Li Qingchen straightened up, put his hands behind his back, and nodded in a mature manner.

His playful expression vanished, replaced by a serious look as he stared at Ye Fan and Pang Bo.

"Alright, alright, I'm not teasing you anymore. Seriously, Brother Ye, Brother Pang Bo, you two need to cultivate diligently, become stronger quickly, and turn back into your original form as soon as possible. I will learn my skills well in the Purple Mansion Holy Land."

She paused, her chin slightly raised, with an air of self-assured confidence.

"Don't worry, if anyone bullies you in the future, just say my name, Li Qingchen. Once I've mastered my skills, I'll be the first to stop anyone from harming my Brother Ye and Brother Pang Bo!"

These words, spoken by a seemingly charming and lively young girl, carried a touch of childish boldness, yet somehow felt incredibly believable.

Looking at her earnest little face, Ye Fan felt much of the helplessness he felt due to the changes in his body and the slight melancholy of parting.

It was both funny and heartwarming.

He nodded, his voice steady: "Alright, we've got it. Take care, listen to Fairy Zixia's words, and cultivate diligently!"

"I'll definitely come see you soon!"

Pang Bo also patted his chest and guaranteed it.

Li Qingchen smiled with satisfaction, nodded vigorously, then turned and walked briskly toward Zixia, who was waiting to the side.

Ye Fan and Pang Bo stood there, watching the green figure disappear into the horizon as the purple divine rainbow faded into the distance.

A gentle breeze blew by, stirring up some dust on the ground.

Pang Bo touched his now smooth chin and clicked his tongue: "Ye Zi, I must say, Qing Chen's demeanor just now really did have a bit of an 'older sister' feel to it, huh?"

Ye Fan glanced at him irritably, ignoring the remark, and simply looked up at the sky, saying in a low voice, "Let's go, we should head to the Spirit Ruins Cave Heaven too."

"Yes! Cultivate! Get stronger! Turn back!"

Pang Bo clenched his fist, his fighting spirit high.

The two turned around and started walking in another direction.

Despite its small size, its steps are firm.
