High Martial Arts: Starting with a Martial Saint Peak Cultivation

Chen Yuan put down his teacup and looked at Youying, who was slumped over the table.

Those dark purple vertical pupils were staring at him with watery eyes, and the tip of her tail was dangling from the stone table leg.

Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly.

With a thought, three bottles of Nine Heavens Mystic Water and ten Void Crystals appeared out of thin air on the stone table.

A row of small, white jade bottles stood side by side, their pale golden liquids gleaming warmly in the sunlight.

The ten Void Crystals are translucent grayish-white in color, with fine spatial patterns flowing on their surface, like ten solidified stars.

"Here you go, enjoy it."

Chen Yuan waved his hand, his tone carrying a hint of disdain.

"Leave me alone."

The entire Shadow Beast lit up instantly.

It suddenly sprang up from the ground, and with its two front paws, it gathered the three bottles of Nine Heavens Mystic Water and ten Void Crystals into its arms, moving so fast that it seemed afraid Chen Yuan would change his mind.

"Boss, you're so good to me!"

The shadowy creature was so excited that its tail swung like a windmill, and its vertical pupils seemed to have two small lights on.

It tightened the things around its chest and bowed deeply to Chen Yuan.

"I'll go find a place to eat right away, so as not to disturb the boss's rest!"

Before he could finish speaking, a flash of dark purple light appeared.

The shadowy figure had disappeared into the pavilion in the middle of the lake, leaving only a few lingering ripples that gently swept across the stone table.

Chen Yuan looked in the direction it disappeared, and the corners of his mouth curved into a smile.

"That glutton."

He muttered to himself.

"But it is indeed a lively character. With it around, the manor is always bustling with activity."

Chen Yuan recalled the scene when he first signed up for Youying.

"I'm its boss, after all. If I don't spoil it, who will?"

Chen Yuan smiled and finished the last sip of tea in his cup.

He stood up and stretched comfortably.

The joints in his shoulders, back, and waist made a crisp cracking sound, which was particularly clear in the quiet pavilion.

"After being away for so many days, I deserve a good night's sleep."

With a thought, Chen Yuan vanished from the pavilion in the middle of the lake.

The next second, he was already in his bedroom.

The room was exactly as it was when I left, clean and tidy, with a faint fragrance of spirit wood in the air.

Moonlight streamed in through the half-open window, casting a pale silver frost on the floor.

Chen Yuan walked to the bedside and lay down directly on it.

Wrap yourself in a soft blanket, and the pillow is warm from the sun.

"Comfortable."

He closed his eyes and buried his face in the pillow.

With his Supreme Realm cultivation, he no longer needs sleep.

But who could blame him for his biggest dream before he transmigrated: to sleep as late as he wanted every day?

"We must not forget our original aspirations."

Chen Yuan turned over and pulled the blanket tighter around herself.

His breathing quickly became even and long.

Outside the window, a fish leaped out of the water on the lake, only to fall back down with a splash.

The leaves of the herb rustled in the night breeze.

.........

I slept without any dreams.

In the days that followed, Chen Yuan resumed her usual routine.

I sleep until the sun is high in the sky every day. After getting up, I either go fishing by the lake or go to Mingyu City to drink tea and listen to storytelling.

Occasionally, they would charter a pleasure boat for a lake tour, taking Chen Tianling and his companions from the south of the city to the north.

Life was incredibly comfortable.

In addition to that, he had one more thing to do.

Every few days, Chen Yuan would return to Blue Star through the Celestial Statue.

Outside Luodu City, at the Plaza of the Celestial Gods.

The morning sun climbed up from the horizon, bathing the entire statue in a pale gold light.

The square was already packed with people, several times more than on previous visits.

Ordinary people have completely disappeared; everyone is a martial artist.

Some came to pray, some to meditate and practice breathing exercises, and some were young monks who had come from other places.

Chen Yuan's illusory image coalesced above the statue, dressed in white with black hair and clearly defined features.

He glanced at the dense crowd in the square and, as usual, gestured downwards with his hand.

"Don't push."

"I'm standing here, I won't get lost."

The sound wasn't loud, but it rang clearly in everyone's ears.

The crowd quieted down considerably, with only a few barely audible whispers.

Chen Yuan ignored them and spread his divine sense, gently sweeping it across Blue Star.

Deep within the mansion on Longyuan Mountain.

Lin Mengyao was sitting cross-legged in a cultivation room.

She wore a plain white dress, her long hair was tied up with a simple jade hairpin, and her eyebrows and eyes were delicate and beautiful.

The spiritual energy around him surged and condensed into a layer of light silver mist.

Chen Yuan's divine sense landed on her, and he nodded slightly.

"At the late stage of Martial Saint, his foundation is solid."

He secretly praised himself.

"This girl is indeed very talented. With the cultivation techniques and resources I left behind, her cultivation speed is more than ten times faster than that of ordinary people."

Lin Mengyao seemed to sense something.

She slowly opened her eyes, a smile appearing on her lips.

"Teacher Chen."

She said something softly, then closed her eyes again and continued her cultivation.

Chen Yuan withdrew his divine sense from the cultivation room and then scanned various parts of Blue Star.

Zhou Qing was handling military affairs, his desk piled high with documents.

Shadowblade and Netherworld Fiend are in seclusion under the World Origin Tree, and their auras are much stronger than before.

Chen Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

Then, with a thought, he sank his consciousness into the core of the blue star.

In the center of a pale blue sea of ​​energy mist.

Xiao Lan sat cross-legged, her long, silvery-white hair reaching her waist.

A large ball of dark golden light floated in front of her, which was part of the remains of Boluo.

The light was smaller than the last time I saw it, about a third less.

Little Blue had its eyes closed, emanating a faint golden aura, and was gradually absorbing and refining the energy.

Chen Yuan's illusory image coalesced in front of her without making a sound to disturb her.

He just watched quietly for a while.

Xiao Lan's aura was much stronger than before, and the core space of Blue Star had also expanded compared to the last time she came.

On the edge of those distant seas of energy mist, the outlines of new land can be faintly seen slowly forming.

"The entire planet Earth is getting bigger."

Chen Yuan pondered in his heart.

"The concentration of spiritual energy has also increased significantly. It is estimated that it will catch up with Yuhua Star soon."

He glanced at Xiao Lan again, then turned and left.

When consciousness returned to the skies above Blue Star, the crowd in the square was still waiting quietly.

Chen Yuan's illusory figure nodded slightly downwards before slowly dissipating.

.........

Time passed day by day.

At noon that day, at Yunye Manor.

The sun was shining brightly, and the lakeside herbs were slightly curled by the sun.

Several large bamboo couches were set up on the viewing platform at the back of the manor.

Chen Yuan lay on the couch, his upper body naked, wearing only a pair of loose silk trousers.

He rested his arms under his chin, his whole body relaxed like a puddle of water.

Behind him, a female masseuse was kneeling beside him, her hands covered with a layer of light pink spiritual energy, gently massaging his shoulders and back.

The female technician was in her early twenties, with a slender figure and fair skin.

Her long, jet-black hair was loosely tied back with a plain ribbon, revealing her slender, fair neck.

She has an oval face, curved eyebrows and eyes, and long, thick eyelashes.

She had a straight and delicate nose, and her lips were a light cherry pink.

She was wearing a light blue sheer short-sleeved shirt, the neckline slightly open, revealing a small patch of delicate collarbone.

A thin silver chain was tied around her waist, with several rice-grain-sized spirit beads hanging from it, swaying gently with her movements.

The force she applied was just right, and the spiritual energy flowed down Chen Yuan's shoulders and back, warm and comforting, making him want to doze off.

On several bamboo couches nearby, Chen Tianling and the Holy Dragon Guards were also lying down.

Beside Chen Tianling was a tall woman with an oval face and a cool, aloof expression.

Her long, silver-gray hair reached her waist and was held in place by a white jade hairpin.

She wore a dark blue, narrow-sleeved long dress with an extremely slender waist, exuding a calm and serene aura.

Her technique was precise and efficient, each touch landing precisely on the most taut acupoints on Chen Tianling's shoulders and back.

Chen Yi and the others each had a masseuse giving them massages.

The Holy Dragon Guards, who wield guns year-round, have much firmer shoulder and back muscles than ordinary people, so the technicians' techniques are correspondingly more forceful.

The entire viewing platform was quiet, with only the rustling of the herbs in the wind and the occasional splash of water.

The lake surface shimmered, and several agile fish swam to and fro on the surface, occasionally revealing a patch of silvery-white belly.

As Chen Yuan lay there, her eyelids began to droop.

The sun was shining brightly, and the spiritual massage on my back felt incredibly comfortable.

He was just about to fall asleep.

Suddenly, the communication bracelet on my wrist lit up.

A crisp notification sound rang out clearly on the quiet platform.

The female masseuse who was giving Chen Yuan a massage paused.

She glanced down at the light screen on Chen Yuan's wrist, then quickly withdrew her hands and knelt down properly.

"My lord, shall I take my leave?"

Her voice was soft, gentle but not cloying, with just the right amount of respect.

Chen Yuan opened one eye and glanced at the bracelet screen.

Fu Xingyuan.

"Need not."

He buried his face back in his arms, his tone languid.

"Keep pressing."

The female technician was stunned for a moment.

She had assumed that when such important figures were discussing matters, bystanders would definitely have to step aside.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuan asked her to stay.

"Yes."

She responded and placed her hands back on Chen Yuan's shoulders and back, continuing the massage.

But I couldn't help but feel curious.

Although she was just a technician, she had spent many years on Yuhua Star.

She had entertained quite a few powerful and influential people, and had seen a lot of the shady dealings among them.

But I've never seen anyone as open about it as Chen Yuan.

"Why is Fu Xingyuan contacting me at this time?"

Chen Yuan muttered to himself and gently tapped the communication bracelet with a wisp of his divine sense.

The light screen pops up.

Fu Xingyuan's figure appeared on the screen.

He was wearing a dark blue casual suit today and looked a few years younger than last time.

His face showed obvious joy, and his eyes and brows were full of smiles.

"Special Envoy Chen, I apologize for disturbing your rest."

Fu Xingyuan apologized first, but his tone couldn't hide his excitement.

Chen Yuan closed his eyes and spoke in a muffled voice.

"What is it?"

Fu Xingyuan took a deep breath, as if he wanted to pour out all the good news at once.

"Special Envoy Chen, have you seen the news from our Eastern Star Region?"

Chen Yuan rubbed his face against her arms.

"I didn't see it."

He spoke casually.

"The last time I saw the news was a week ago."

He paused.

"What happened now?"

Fu Xingyuan's voice revealed a hint of regret when he heard that Chen Yuan hadn't looked at it.

"Didn't you watch it? That's such a shame."

He straightened his back, his tone solemn yet filled with barely concealed excitement.

"This morning, the Black Wind Star Pirate Gang was publicly slaughtered in front of the Qingyuan Star System Governor's Mansion!"

"Execute all leaders and ordinary members, leave no one alive!"

"Black Fiend's corpse was even hung in the square in front of the Governor's Mansion as a warning to all villains!"

Fu Xingyuan became more and more excited as he spoke.

"The Empire's official news channel dedicated a full half-hour to a special report on it!"

"It lavishly praises Special Envoy Chen's achievements!"

"They say you single-handedly penetrated deep into enemy territory, single-handedly defeating Black Fiend and Black Flame Dragon, and capturing the entire remnant of the Black Wind Star Pirate Gang!"

"They even specifically mentioned your selflessness in handing over the Eternal Superior Spatial Treasure, the Space Storage Ring, to the Empire!"

"The news reports describe you as 'the most outstanding honorary envoy in the Eastern Star Region of the Azure Sky Empire in nearly a thousand years'!"

After Fu Xingyuan finished speaking, he stared eagerly at the screen, waiting for Chen Yuan to show a joyful expression.

Chen Yuan's reaction, however, disappointed him somewhat.

Chen Yuan simply hummed in response, without even lifting her eyelids.

"understood."

His tone was indifferent, as if he were listening to something trivial that had nothing to do with him.

Fu Xingyuan's smile froze for a moment.

However, he recovered quickly and secretly admired the composure of this Special Envoy Chen.

Chen Yuan lay still, but her mind was racing.

"Little Fu, Little Fu."

He sighed inwardly.

"You didn't go through all that trouble to call me just to tell me this, did you?"

He opened one eye and glanced at Fu Xingyuan's face on the screen.

"Xiao Fu."

Chen Yuan called out, his tone lazy.

"You didn't come to see me just for this, did you?"

Upon hearing this, Fu Xingyuan's smile deepened.

"It's true that nothing can be hidden from Special Envoy Chen."

He stopped being mysterious and his tone became more serious.

"Commissioner Shen just sent me a message."

"The Prince of Zhendong intends to take this opportunity to publicize the achievements of Special Envoy Chen."

Fu Xingyuan paused for a moment, then clarified his words.

"His Highness plans to send a special envoy to Yuhua Star for an exclusive interview with you."

"The entire event was broadcast live on the official Imperial channel, covering the entire Azure Empire."

"This humble official would like to ask for your opinion, Your Excellency."

After hearing this, Chen Yuan opened her eyes wide.

"live streaming?"

He repeated the two words, his tone clearly showing surprise.

Then, he shook his head.

"Not interested."

Chen Yuan spoke crisply and decisively, without the slightest hesitation.

"I prefer to keep a low profile and don't want to be too flamboyant."

"There's no need for a live stream."

Fu Xingyuan's lips twitched upon hearing this reply.

He grumbled inwardly.

"Keep a low profile?"

"If I hadn't personally witnessed the complete battle footage recorded by the Ninth Elite Battleship Legion of the Qingyuan Star System, I would have believed what you said."

When the battle footage was transmitted back to Yuhua Star that day, Fu Xingyuan watched it immediately.

I watched it three times from beginning to end.

In the scene, Chen Yuan faced the combined attack of Hei Sha and the Black Flame Flood Dragon without even a ripple in his clothes.

With a casual sweep of his silver-white spear, he sent the Black Fiend and the Black Flame Dragon flying.

Finally, the Black Flame Dragon released the Dark Abyss Mist in an attempt to escape, but Chen Yuan accurately located it within the mist and killed the two Eternal True Gods with a single tap.

The overall feeling of the video is powerful.

Very strong!

That calm and composed demeanor didn't seem like she was trying to keep a low profile at all.

However, the message from Commissioner Shen was also very clear.

If Chen Yuan is unwilling, we don't have to force him.

Fu Xingyuan snapped out of his thoughts and spoke respectfully.

"Yes, I understand."

He bowed slightly towards the screen.

"I apologize for disturbing Your Excellency's rest. I will convey your message to Commissioner Shen immediately."

Chen Yuan hummed in agreement.

"OK."

The communication was disconnected.

The light screen dissipated, and the viewing platform fell silent again.

The female technician behind her kept working with her hands, but her mind was in turmoil.

Although she kept her head down massaging, she could hear their conversation clearly.

Eastern Star Region News Live Broadcast Interview.

The Prince of Zhendong personally dispatched a special envoy.

Live broadcast of the entire Canglan Empire.

This is a great opportunity to make a name for oneself and gain fame throughout the entire Eastern Star Region and even the entire Empire.

It's something countless people would beg for but can't have.

This special envoy, Chen, actually refused so bluntly.

Moreover, the one who refused was the Prince of Zhendong, one of the four great princes of the empire, who was unapproachable!

The female technician was utterly shocked.

She secretly glanced at Chen Yuan's back as he lay on the couch.

He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, with smooth and firm muscle lines, and his skin had a pale jade-like sheen in the sunlight.

He looked like a young man in his early twenties, but the calmness and casualness in his tone revealed the confidence that only someone who had long held a high position could possess.

"This Special Envoy Chen is even more mysterious and powerful than rumored."

She muttered to herself.

"They don't even give face to the Prince of Zhen Dong. What kind of audacity does they have to do this?"

Another thought crossed her mind.

"If I could curry favor with such an important person, even the slightest reward they show would be enough for me to enjoy endlessly."

With this in mind, her movements became even gentler and more delicate, and she pushed her spiritual energy with even greater care than before.

Chen Yuan lay still, enjoying the warm, smooth touch on his back.

"Live interview."

He muttered to himself.

"You want me to sit there and spout a bunch of official jargon in front of the camera?"

"Just thinking about it gives me a headache."

He shifted to a more comfortable position and buried his face in the crook of his arm.

"You'd be better off sleeping more."

at the same time.

Yuhua Star Outer Harbor, inside the Administrative Headquarters.

Fu Xingyuan stood behind his desk, the screen in front of him just turned off.

He picked up the spiritual tea on the table, took a sip, and showed no surprise on his face.

These past few days, working with Commissioner Shen on Chen Yuan's affairs, he has gradually figured out the temperament of this special envoy Chen.

Low-key, easygoing, and not interested in power or fame.

As expected, Chen Yuan refused once again.

Fu Xingyuan put down his teacup and tapped a few times on his communication wristband.

"Commissioner Shen, Special Envoy Chen has responded."

He sent a short text message.

"Special Envoy Chen said he had no interest in live streaming and hoped to keep a low profile."

The reply came back shortly after the message was sent.

Fu Xingyuan looked down.

Shen Wenfei's reply was equally concise.

"understood."

"Since Special Envoy Chen is unwilling, then forget it."

Fu Xingyuan looked at the words and let out a soft breath.

"This is Special Envoy Chen."

He muttered to himself.

"They really have a low profile ingrained in their bones."

He sat back down in his chair and picked up another document to look through.

On the viewing platform.

The female masseuse's hands were still gently massaging Chen Yuan's shoulders and back.

The sunlight streamed down from above, warm and pleasant.

Several agile fish leaped out of the water on the lake, only to fall back down with a splash.

As Chen Yuan lay there, her eyelids grew heavier and heavier.

He yawned and closed his eyes completely.

Before long, even breathing could be heard.

A powerful being at the early stage of the Supreme Realm fell asleep on the bamboo bed.

The female technician behind him kept moving her hands, but couldn't help but smile.

"My esteemed envoy."

She chuckled to herself.

"He's no different from an ordinary person..."
