In a dark alley at a considerable distance from the Array Magic Pavilion.
Xiao Jifan’s face was flushed with anger, veins bulged on his forehead, and he was panting heavily through his mouth and nose.
Feeling the power inside him being sealed, unable to improve his strength by even a bit for three whole years was pure torture for Xiao Jifan. But he couldn’t seek revenge on Leng Zuolong. Not only was he not the Family Head of the Xiaos, even the Family Head wouldn’t dare to demand an explanation from Leng Zuolong.
Liu Yuqin, supporting Xiao Jifan, helped him calm his breath and said, "Brother Fan, don’t harm your health with anger. Xiao Yongzhan and the others are so detestable. They are simply bullying to the extre."
Liu Yuqin was completely subservient to Xiao Jifan, so her words sounded ridiculous.
Xiao Yongzhan and the others are too detestable? Bullying to the extre?
That’s simply laughable. The whole matter was instigated by Xiao Jifan himself, who deliberately tried to escalate the situation, attempting to use the Array Magic Pavilion to deal with Xiao Yongzhan and Ye Chenfeng. But in the end, he reaped what he sowed.
Xiao Jifan’s expression grew increasingly hideous. Unable to swallow his anger, his power couldn’t improve in three years, and even Leng Zuolong wasn’t swayed, having cut ties with the Liu family. The suffocation in his heart grew stronger, especially recalling Xiao Yongzhan’s ambiguous smile before leaving.
Finally, a sweetness rose in his throat, and a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth. Since childhood, Xiao Yongzhan had always been a cut above him. Only after seducing Xiao Yongzhan’s wife, Liu Yuqin, and using her to poison Xiao Yongzhan did he surpass him. He could not tolerate Xiao Yongzhan rising once more.
Liu Yuqin, with a concerned face, asked, "Brother Fan, are you okay?"
Xiao Jifan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said, "Who exactly is that Ye Chenfeng? Our investigation shows he’s rely a disciple of the Qingyue Sect. Why did Leng Zuolong change his attitude so quickly?"
Liu Yuqin said, "Brother Fan, that guy nad Ye Chenfeng might have obtained so ancient array diagram. The Pavilion Master of the Array Magic Pavilion is obsessed with ancient array diagrams. There’s nothing much we can deduce about his background. We also gathered so information indicating he likely ca from a lower plane, the Earth Profound Realm, so he has no roots in the Tian Xuan Realm."
"Perhaps he t Zhao Xingtu by chance, and this ti, with Zhao Xingtu’s recomndation, he presented so items appealing to the ten Pavilion Masters, causing Leng Zuolong to change his stance."
"After all, our Liu family’s past favors to Leng Zuolong have already been repaid tenfold by him. Now wanting to sever ties with our Liu family wouldn’t give people reason to criticize."
"We should just leave Bai Ling City first! We couldn’t secure Leng Zuolong. How will we explain this to the family?"
Xiao Jifan, with a sullen gaze, said, "No need to rush out of Bai Ling City. We’re not leaving empty-handed. I must make Yin Hongda secretly join the Xiaos. He has so insight into formations, so having him set up a few formations shouldn’t be a problem."
"As for the failure to invite Leng Zuolong, isn’t it simple? We can bla Xiao Yongzhan, saying he sabotaged our invitation. Most elders in the Xiao family now stand by my side. This ti, the family plans to set up an important formation, which is an opportunity to severely strike Xiao Yongzhan. When Xiao Yongzhan returns to the Xiao family next ti, it might be the mont the family condemns him."
"That guy Ye Chenfeng, just let him prance about for a while. I want to see if he can safely pass the Tian Xuan Festival!"
...
While Xiao Jifan was plotting everything in his mind.
In the No.1 Heaven Box of Xiangmanlou in Bai Ling City.
The ten Pavilion Masters, Ye Chenfeng, Yun Rong, and others were seated, with tables full of spiritual wine and spirit dishes before them.
Xiangmanlou was the finest inn in Bai Ling City.
As Zhao Xingtu and the other ten Pavilion Masters frequently toasted Ye Chenfeng,
Ye Chenfeng’s ssaging Jade Token at his waist began to flicker. He took it in his hand and heard Zhao Bo’s voice: "Chenfeng, Missy’s emotions are very unstable right now. Could you co here imdiately?"
Ye Chenfeng quickly responded via the ssaging Jade Token, "Uncle Zhao, are you in danger?"
After a short while, Zhao Bo replied again: "We aren’t in any danger. We’re all safe now. When you arrive, Chenfeng, you’ll understand. Perhaps only you can console Missy."
Upon learning that Xue Wanqing and the others were not in danger, Ye Chenfeng breathed a sigh of relief, though his brow furrowed. With everyone’s eyes on him, he said, "Elder Zhao, please continue enjoying. I have sothing to attend to."
Seeing Zhao Xingtu and Yun Rong about to rise and accompany him, Ye Chenfeng added, "No need to accompany . It’s nothing dangerous; I can handle it myself."
Since Xue Wanqing was rely emotionally unstable, too many people going would be inappropriate.
Under Ye Chenfeng’s insistence, Zhao Xingtu and Yun Rong remained at Xiangmanlou.
After leaving Xiangmanlou, Ye Chenfeng swiftly made his way towards the city gate of Bai Ling City.
After exiting the city gate,
Following the ssage from Zhao Bo via the ssaging Jade Token, Ye Chenfeng moved westward through the air.
About thirty minutes later,
Ye Chenfeng saw an extrely secluded valley, as Zhao Bo ntioned, they were inside the valley.
Entering the valley, Ye Chenfeng saw Qin Zhou, Zhao Bo, and Li Bo.
The trio approached Ye Chenfeng imdiately upon seeing him.
The valley was filled with fresh air, with flowers blooming on the ground. In the middle of the valley, a white figure stood motionless, back facing Ye Chenfeng, hiding its expression from him.
Zhao Bo whispered, "Chenfeng, you’re finally here. Please try to console Missy. In the middle of the valley is the place where Madam was buried. When we arrived earlier, her grave was completely destroyed. Judging by the damage, it happened in recent days, and this badge was left on the ground."
Zhao Bo angrily displayed the badge to Ye Chenfeng. On the silver-white badge was engraved the word "Xue."
Zhao Bo, gritting his teeth, angrily said, "Chenfeng, this badge is unique to the Xues. Madam’s grave was undoubtedly destroyed by mbers of the Xues. This badge was unintentionally left behind by them."
Previously, many from the Xues had their powers crippled by Ye Chenfeng and the others, so it was inevitable that the Xues harbored resentnt. But to vent it on the grave of soone who’s passed?
After understanding the situation,
Ye Chenfeng moved towards the white figure in the middle of the valley.
The closer he got, the more he could feel the intense cold emanating from the figure. The person’s pale hands were tightly clenched into fists, with blood continuously dripping to the ground from their palms.
Upon reaching the white figure’s side, Ye Chenfeng saw the ground where the grave once was, igniting his fury.
The original tombstone was reduced to fragnts.
Even Xue Wanqing’s mother’s coffin had been exhud. Her corpse was gone, leaving only a heap of white powder.
It was certain that mbers of the Xues used their power to reduce Xue Wanqing’s mother’s body to powder.
They didn’t even spare the deceased.
This goes beyond re heartlessness; it’s sheer inhumanity.
Xue Wanqing hadn’t actively sought out the Xues! But the Xues repeatedly harassed her, and after their powers were crippled, they rcilessly desecrated her mother’s grave and destroyed her mother’s body.
No wonder Xue Wanqing lost control of her emotions. Her mother held an extrely important place in her heart. All these years, her persistence was rely to place her mother’s spirit tablet in the Xue family ancestral hall and make the Xues kneel before her mother’s tombstone to apologize.
