Chapter 991: Chapter 875: Nesis (Supplent 37)
Yanhuang Organization Headquarters, top-floor office.
Master Yan held a cup of tea, seated on a hardwood chair, gesturing for Ye Fan to sit on the opposite chair.
Ye Fan, unceremonious, directly sat down on the chair, waiting for Yan to speak.
After taking a sip of tea, Yan placed the teacup on the table in front of him, pondered briefly, and said, “The matter has co to a close. What are your plans next?”
Ye Fan thought for a mont and said, “I plan to go into seclusion for a while to quickly enhance my strength and handle any potential crises that may arise.”
This answer was by the book. With his current strength, as long as he doesn’t encounter Supre Strongn like Xu Tianqi, he should be able to protect himself. But who knows if even stronger people will appear?
This Hidden God List competition, he’s almost offended all Six Great Families and needs to keep a low profile.
“Hehe…”
Yan chuckled and said, “You’re worried that the Six Great Families will take revenge, right? You can rest assured on that point. After the affair with the Xu Family, I think the other Five Great Families wouldn’t dare touch you in the short term, and neither would the Xu Family.”
At this point, Master Yan’s tone shifted, and he said sternly, “You don’t need to worry about the Six Great Families, but you have to be wary of Chen Daozang. I estimate his injuries have healed, and once he decides to act without restraint, you won’t be his match!”
Chen Daozang?
A flash of fierce determination passed through Ye Fan’s eyes. His animosity with Chen Daozang was irreconcilable, and both sides knew that only one could survive.
If it weren’t for Chen Daozang, Chu Xuanji wouldn’t have burned his Gang Qi Essence, ending up losing all his power, and although he rose again to the Early-Stage War God Realm, he ultimately died in the Forbidden Land.
It was all thanks to Chen Daozang, and how could Ye Fan forget? He hadn’t expected Chen Daozang to be so tenacious, and now that he has recovered, he will undoubtedly seek revenge.
At that mont, Ye Fan wished he could imdiately reach the Top-level War God Realm to battle Chen Daozang to the death and avenge his mother, Chu Xuanji, Bodhi Wu Yin, and others!
But he also understood the principle of rushing achieving nothing. Currently, he was definitely not Chen Daozang’s opponent and could only strive to boost his cultivation, hoping to reach the height necessary to personally slay his enemy!
Seeing Ye Fan not reacting impulsively, Master Yan nodded secretly. Ye Fan had matured and learned to be patient, which was a good thing.
When one’s strength is insufficient, they must bide their ti, concealing their talents and not exposing sharp edges, or calamity will surely follow.
The concept of “a tree standing out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind” applies equally in the Cultivation World.
“It’s fine if you go into seclusion, but I must tell you that you shouldn’t be in a hurry to enhance your strength. Laying a solid foundation is key. Only by taking each step with determination can you go further. Do you understand my words?”
Yan looked at Ye Fan expectantly, a profound and mysterious smile on his face, which prompted Ye Fan to ponder Master Yan’s words carefully.
Suddenly, Ye Fan trembled all over, stood up from the chair, and bowed profoundly to Yan, saying, “Xiao Fan has taken your lesson to heart!”
Yan looked at Ye Fan in surprise. He didn’t expect Ye Fan’s comprehension to be so astonishingly high—just a hint and he grasped the essence.
This kind of comprehension can only be described as demonic!
Yet Yan felt more comforted than anything. The better Ye Fan was, the happier he beca. In the future Cultivation World, Ye Fan would surely be able to take his place as the Savior and supre leader of human cultivators.
Climbing to the pinnacle, the height is overwhelmingly cold!
Although Yan appeared enviably glorious on the surface, in reality, he deeply envied the leisurely life of Chu Xuanji, just that circumstances had pushed him to his current position, where he had to consider for all humankind.
“It’s good that you understand. I don’t have much more advice for you; be cautious in everything. With the Essence Stones from the Xu Family and the Luoke Family’s return, you have enough to support your cultivation for a while. I hope the next ti I see you, you’ll surprise again!” Yan said, filled with expectation.
“Alright!”
Hearing this, Ye Fan’s mind was crystal clear.
Yan’s trip to the Xu Family was both a punishnt for the Xu Family to demand Essence Stones for him and a show of absolute power to deter various forces.
In such a scenario, if the leader of the Luoke Family, i Luo, hadn’t lost his wits, he would surely return the extra portion of Essence Stones obtained deceitfully.
Based on the reward distribution ratio for the Hidden God List competition, he could get 3 million Essence Stones himself, and Su Liuli could get 800,000 Essence Stones.
These Essence Stones were indeed enough for them to cultivate for a long ti.
…
After leaving Yan’s office, Ye Fan found Su Liuli and Chu Ji. Now returning to Mount Tian was out of the question; it was a place of sadness none wished to ntion.
After finding them, the three together flew towards the Yanhuang Organization’s secret base located in the West Mountain.
Situ Ruoshui was still there, practicing skills with Elder Heavenly Master Zhao from the Yanhuang Organization.
Having not seen her for such a long ti, Ye Fan missed this younger sister and also wanted to see how her Mind Body was progressing with her skill cultivation.
As soon as the three of Ye Fan arrived at the base, they were greeted by Situ Ruoshui’s master, Heavenly Master Zhao.
“You… What brings you here again?”
Upon seeing Ye Fan’s arrival, Heavenly Master Zhao’s face instantly changed, blocking their path like a guard against thieves.
Many trainees in the base looked at Ye Fan and the other two with envy, jealousy, and resentnt. How could the gap be so vast between people?
They could already leap ranks and kill strong people at the High-level War God Realm, yet I am still struggling with cultivation, not even touching the door to the Early-Stage War God Realm.
In terms of age, there isn’t much difference, but the strength disparity is like heaven and earth!
“Heavenly Master Zhao, how have you been!”
Ye Fan touched his nose and smiled. This Heavenly Master Zhao always got anxious as if he was here to steal his treasure whenever he ca to see Ruoshui.
“Don’t get too chummy with . I know that even the old can’t beat you now, but you need to state your purpose first, or don’t bla for not letting you in!”
Heavenly Master Zhao was most afraid of Ye Fan taking Situ Ruoshui away. He treasured this disciple dearly; her innate mind body was a rare find among millions, an excellent seedling in the art of cultivation, and he couldn’t let her training be delayed.
“We’re just here to see Ruoshui. We haven’t seen her for such a long ti. We’re friends; can’t we visit?”
Ye Fan smiled wryly. This Heavenly Master Zhao was like an old hen protecting her chicks, but he was relieved because Ruoshui wouldn’t suffer under him.
“Just a visit? You better not be lying to .”
Heavenly Master Zhao looked distrustful. He was genuinely worried that Ruoshui wouldn’t be able to concentrate on her training upon seeing Ye Fan and the others. She’s already missed the best h, and without catching up, even with the innate mind body, she might end up ordinary with limited achievents.
“When have I ever lied to you?”
“True enough! Fine, I will make an exception and let you see her!”
Heavenly Master Zhao then instructed one of the Yanhuang Organization mbers, “Go get Ruoshui, tell her her dear brother’s here to see her.”
Shortly after, Situ Ruoshui’s surprised voice ca through, “Brother Ye Fan, is that you?”
With the voice, Situ Ruoshui in a white dress ca running like an angel from the Immortal Realm, throwing herself into Ye Fan’s arms.
Su Liuli smiled sweetly, saying, “Sister Ruoshui, you’re getting prettier every day.”
Only then did Situ Ruoshui notice Su Liuli and Chu Ji were also there, blushing and greeting them.
“Brother Ye Fan, are you here to take ho? I’m so bored here, it’s just training every day, no one to talk to, and Master doesn’t let go out…”
Situ Ruoshui’s big eyes sparkled with longing; she really wanted to be with Ye Fan, doing anything at all.
Heavenly Master Zhao blushed and retorted, “This is for your own good. You’ve fallen behind, and need to race against ti to cultivate hard, or you’ll waste the great talent bestowed upon you.”
“I’ve been so bored recently, I want to be with you all for a while. Brother Ye Fan, talk to Master, let go ho for a bit, okay?”
Situ Ruoshui’s eyes welled up with moisture; it was clear she felt far too lonely.
Since Situ Chen passed away, she had no family left in this world, holding Ye Fan and others as her family, hoping to reunite and spend ti with them.
“No, absolutely not!”
Before Ye Fan could speak, Heavenly Master Zhao flatly refused, unable to bear seeing Situ Ruoshui abandon her cultivation. One must progress; otherwise, they fall back.
“Old Zhao, you should let her go ho.”
As they spoke, Yan appeared in the base, smiling at them and said to Heavenly Master Zhao, “What do we cultivators fear most?”
Heavenly Master Zhao was stunned, scratching his head, unsure of why Yan suddenly asked this.
Seeing that he didn’t get it, Yan continued, “It’s having a knot in one’s heart. If one has a knot, their cultivation stagnates, unable to breakthrough. Back then, Xiao Fan entered the mortal world, refining his heart in the Red Dust, actually unraveling a heart knot. Ruoshui has reached a bottleneck; a change of environnt might do her good.”
Since Yan vouched for it, even if displeased, Heavenly Master Zhao had to agree, waving them off in defeat, “Fine, I’ll give you three days, report back in three days and continue training!”
“Three days?”
All of them looked at him with a gaze that seed to mock his intelligence. Heavenly Master Zhao, unable to withstand such looks, raised his hands in surrender, “Alright, alright, one week then, is that okay?”
“One month. If you agree, I will have her report back in a month. If not, she won’t co. Your choice!”
Ye Fan’s words made Heavenly Master Zhao deflate like a wilted vegetable, lips trembling for a long while, finally turning to Yan for help.
“Let it be a month, but rember, Ruoshui’s foundation isn’t as strong as yours. While at ho, she must keep up her cultivation; hopefully, in a month, she can make a breakthrough.”
Yan did not follow Heavenly Master Zhao’s intent to have Situ Ruoshui return sooner, instead agreeing with Ye Fan’s proposal, leaving Heavenly Master Zhao to do nothing but sigh.
He was helpless, as it was Yan’s direct decision, and despite any dissatisfaction, he could only comply.
“Thank you, Leader Yan, thank you, Brother Ye Fan!”
Situ Ruoshui jumped excitedly, made a face at Heavenly Master Zhao, then turned to Ye Fan and the others, “Brother Ye Fan, Sister Chu Ji, Sister Liuli, let’s go!”
