Ye Chen nodded. "If you do well this time, I will not only ensure your survival but also help you take your cultivation to the next level."
In other aspects, Ye Chen would not dare to make any guarantees, but when it came to boosting cultivation, he was an absolute expert. Could an ordinary person reach the peak of the Great Luo Immortal realm at such a young age? The term "prodigy" barely did justice to Ye Chen’s cultivation speed. Guiding this middle-aged man to improve was, to him, a piece of cake.
Of course, Ye Chen had his own motives. He needed the middle-aged man’s full cooperation to ensure he wouldn’t be sabotaged while rescuing the trapped villagers. Furthermore, having managed this place for years, the man possessed far more local knowledge than Ye Chen. More importantly, the man’s mastery of the Five Elements Arts and the Golden Tiger Heaven-Turning Seal was astonishing; few cultivators of the same rank could stand against him. His defeat today was simply a matter of running into a peerless powerhouse like Ye Chen. Ye Chen needed such warriors to support him when he eventually returned to confront the Three Realms.
