"Fellow Daoist, are you serious?" Wu De gazed intently at Ye Yun, asking very carefully.

His Purple Gold Pipe was an extraordinary treasure that had reached Divine Level Top Quality. He had successfully crafted it after spending countless heavenly materials and earthly treasures. It was truly a laborious process.

He simply couldn’t believe that just by stating his name, the young man in white would give him such a precious treasure.

"Of course, I am serious." Ye Yun nodded sincerely.

"This Purple Gold Pipe is also a God-level treasure. It’s truly hard for me to believe that you would just give it to me, Fellow Daoist," Wu De said hesitantly.

"Such a reaction is perfectly understandable; I don’t blame you." Ye Yun gave a faint smile. Suddenly, an ancient golden pipe appeared in his hand.

He casually brandished it a few times and said with a smile, "I don’t lack pipes; one is enough for smoking."

Upon seeing that golden pipe, Wu De’s eyes almost popped out. This golden pipe was on par with his Purple Gold Pipe; they were of equally superior quality.

HISS! He couldn’t help but draw in a cold breath.

Wu De now believed Ye Yun.

"I am Wu De!" Wu De declared, clasping his fists in salute.

Ye Yun couldn’t help but cast a furtive glance around.

"So it’s Fellow Daoist Wu De, my apologies for my earlier rudeness. If you like this Purple Gold Pipe, then please take it." Ye Yun laughed and immediately tossed the Purple Gold Pipe over.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist!" Excited, Wu De swiftly caught the Purple Gold Pipe. He brought it to his nose and sniffed lightly, a delighted expression appearing on his face.

Wu De deftly took out a pouch, poured some shredded tobacco into the pipe bowl, then lit it and took several satisfying puffs.

"This is so refreshing!" Wu De said quite joyfully, exhaling a puff of smoke with his eyes closed.

Seeing this, Ye Yun couldn’t help but find it amusing.

Wu De suddenly opened his eyes, flew over, and approached Ye Yun.

"Fellow Daoist, this tobacco is the best I’ve found in the Divine Land. Why don’t you try a few puffs?" Wu De grinned.

Ye Yun raised an eyebrow, feeling a bit troubled, but he helplessly handed over the golden pipe.

After the tobacco was packed into the bowl, a flame flared up, and wisps of blue smoke soon began to curl upwards.

Ye Yun raised the golden pipe to his lips and also began to take puffs.

With two great Divine Sovereign Realm experts standing mid-air smoking together, the distance between them instantly seemed to close at that moment.

"Fellow Daoist, I’m heading to the Supreme Forgetful Love Palace. Why don’t we go together?" Ye Yun said with a smile, taking a puff from his pipe and glancing sideways at Wu De.

"So, you’re also planning to participate in Jade Heavenly Venerable’s martial arts contest for marriage?" Wu De paused, clearly taken by surprise.

Ye Yun chuckled, "They say Jade Heavenly Venerable is beautiful; naturally, I don’t want to miss out!"

"Fellow Daoist, I’m also thinking of participating. It seems a battle between us is inevitable!" Wu De sighed.

"You’re no match for me. If we meet, you’d better just surrender obediently," Ye Yun laughed heartily.

"That’s not necessarily true. I have to at least try," Wu De replied confidently, his eyes flashing as he patted his chest.

"Alright, it’s settled then!" Ye Yun declared.

Puffing away, the two of them quickly finished the pouch of tobacco. Ye Yun had initially planned to tear open the void and travel to the Supreme Realm, but from their casual chat, he learned that the martial arts contest wouldn’t officially begin for another month.

So, he took out a Celestial Boat and tossed it into the air.

"A God-level Immortal Boat!" Wu De’s eyes widened, shining with astonishment as he exclaimed.

A Divine Immortal Boat was an extremely rare flying treasure in the Divine Land. Since arriving in this world, Wu De had never seen anyone possess a God-level Immortal Boat.

"You have a good eye, Fellow Daoist!" Ye Yun laughed heartily, unconcerned, and leaped onto the Celestial Boat.

Wu De immediately followed. "Fellow Daoist, your resources are truly profound," Wu De said with a hint of dejection.

"That’s why I said you’re no match for me. There’s no shame in admitting defeat early," Ye Yun chuckled.

"HA HA!" Wu De gave a dry laugh, his old face flushing crimson, and said no more.

The Celestial Boat activated, pierced through the void, and vanished from its spot.

「After flying for a while.」

Wu De, as if suddenly remembering something, spoke up, "It’s really strange. This time, Jade Heavenly Venerable’s martial arts contest for marriage is supposedly open only to the Demon Clan and the Demon Clan."

"No spiritual cultivators from the Human Race?" Ye Yun asked curiously.

"I’ve only heard that there seem to be no spiritual cultivators from the Human Race..." Wu De said, shaking his head.

"That is rather strange," Ye Yun said, frowning slightly in thought. "As the saying goes, ’Dragons pair with dragons, phoenixes with phoenixes, and a rat’s son knows how to dig holes.’ If Jade Heavenly Venerable is seeking a husband from Demon Clan and Demon Clan cultivators, could it be that she herself is not a Human Race Spirit?"

Wu De sighed, "You have a point, Fellow Daoist. It’s said that Jade Heavenly Venerable is not a Human Race Spirit, but no one knows what her true form is."

"I see." Ye Yun’s expression turned grave.
