NOVEL WEB Chapter 761: Wu Family Ancestor to Make a Move?
Not only are there a vast number of medicinal materials and treasures, but also countless cultivation techniques and martial arts techniques!
According to the classification of the secular world, the four levels of "Heavenly Earth Xuanhuang" are altogether insufficient to evaluate these martial arts techniques... Previously, Ye Fan had obtained some martial techniques from the great Ding Xiu of the Immortal Domain!
Ye Fan had merely casually investigated in his space ring and found that the martial techniques inside, all of a thousand scrolls, were all Immortal-grade martial techniques!
Among them, Ye Fan casually took out a few scrolls to glance at, and understood some of them, such as movement techniques, as well as those enhancing combat strength, but for some, even having reached the power of a Grade Eight Martial Saint, he still could not penetrate the profound and abstruse text within!
Unfortunately, Ye Fan now has no way of knowing how the Immortal Domain classifies the levels of martial techniques... But from the current situation, many of the techniques within are certainly much stronger than those given to him by Ding Xiu!
Is this the foundation of an Evil Cult?
An Evil Cult member actually had so many treasures hidden in a space ring?
Why didn't I find so many treasures on the Evil Cult member I dealt with in the Flower Capital?
What Ye Fan didn't know was that the space ring he found on this Evil Cult member, with all those treasures and resources, was not amassed by a single member of the Evil Cult... but rather a treasury jointly maintained by almost all members of the Evil Cult!
And the Evil Cult member Ye Fan had just slain happened to be one of the guardians of that treasury!
Originally, this fortuitously escaped member of the Evil Cult had planned to use the resources inside the treasury ring to rapidly enhance the strength of the Scorching Sun Emissary, and then continue to unseal other members of the Evil Cult!
However, he was incredibly unlucky to have just arrived in the Capital, agreed to help Prince Jin oversee today's business banquet, only to encounter Ye Fan!
And then... the Scorching Sun Emissary was killed, and the Evil Cult member who had barely fled was once again annihilated!
Ye Fan roughly understood the resources and elixir pills inside the ring, and although they were very precious, the key was that his current strength had already reached the limit of his physique!
With the power of a Grade Eight Martial Saint, a Spirit Bone Physique, and many talent skill techniques, Ye Fan did not aspire to improve in the short term, not because he lacked Martial Arts Qi... In fact, the rustic aura provided by the Divinity Fragments within Ye Fan's body was sufficient to allow him to ascend to several realms in the Immortal Domain without much issue.
The real problem was that Ye Fan's body couldn't handle it!
Alas!
Having no choice, Ye Fan put away the space ring, pondering whether or not to further improve his Root Bone?
From Spirit Bone to Taoist Bone... his cultivation speed would increase again, and his capacity for enduring Martial Arts Qi would be even stronger. Perhaps, he might just be able to break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm of the Immortal Domain, or even higher realms?
Ye Fan's mind was still pondering when suddenly a flash of light appeared before his eyes!
The Martial Emperor Strong watching over Prince Jin's Mansion had suddenly started alerting him?
What had happened there?
Ye Fan focused his gaze, carefully shared the vision of a few Martial Emperor Strong, and immediately saw a list!
That list was one shared by Zhang Yu through the vision of Martial Emperor Strong!
It was Wu Family Ancestor, Mu Family, and other ancestors planning to make a move, coming to deal with Fan Ye...
After understanding the situation, Ye Fan couldn't help but let out a cold sneer in his heart!
Hmph!
All these ancestors of the families are planning to make a move?
"Very well, can't hold back any longer, can you?"
Ye Fan faked his death this time to come to the Capital precisely because he wanted to start by clearing out some of Prince Jin's trump cards!
And unexpectedly, Prince Jin could hardly wait!
Perfect!
Let's make a big scene starting with tonight's banquet!
...
In the Wu Family Mansion in the Capital!
With bruises on his face, Wu Jinchuan knelt in the rear courtyard's ancestral hall and respectfully said into the darkness, "Ancestor, Xiao Hai... has been killed! It is because of the Ling Family and that Fan Ye... Please take action and ensure justice for Wu Hai!"
Wu Jinchuan was utterly aggrieved as he spoke!
Today was supposed to be a great day for the Hua Family to expand its influence by hosting a project convention in the Capital, and since Wu Jinchuan had some ties with Hua Taikang, he let his grandson Wu Hai attend first, while he himself planned to show support later!
However, before Wu Jinchuan could arrive, he received news that Wu Hai, having offended Fan Ye and Ling Yanqiu, was directly killed by Hua Taikang on the spot!
When Wu Jinchuan went to confront Hua Taikang, he never even had the chance to see the man and was beaten to a pulp by Hua Family's bodyguards, nearly losing his life there and then.
"Wu Hai has been killed? Who dares to lay a hand on him in the Capital?" A dignified voice echoed from inside the ancestral hall; it was the Wu Family Ancestor. The Wu Family Ancestor, who was Wu Jinchuan's grandfather, had lived for several centuries. He rarely involved himself in family matters and was always cultivating, his strength having broken through to the Martial Saint Realm.
Although the Wu Family Ancestor seldom made public appearances, in the entire Great Xia, no one dared to ignore his existence.
A Grade Eight Martial Saint could easily annihilate a Supreme Family with just the flick of a finger.
In the entire Great Xia, there weren't many strong enough to reach the Martial Saint Realm... but most had some connection with Prince Jin! Allegedly, these strong individuals had received benefits from Prince Jin when they made their breakthroughs into the Martial Saint Realm.
"The one who acted was Hua Taikang! But according to information I gathered, Hua Taikang didn't really want to kill Wu Hai. The ones who truly wanted Wu Hai dead were that bitch Ling Yanqiu and that little bastard Fan Ye..."
Wu Jinchuan understood all the events Wu Hai had experienced outside the banquet hall.
Moreover, considering the situation between Fan Ye and Hua Xueyan, the way the Fang Family was decimated, the Gong Family's lack of action, the internal turmoil within the Ling Family, Ling Bo getting crippled, the Huo Family backing down... when all these events were pieced together, it was clear to Wu Jinchuan that Fan Ye was not someone to be trifled with.
The forces behind him were undoubtedly strong, imposing enough that even the Hua Family wanted to cling to their coattails.
So in today's event, although it was the Hua Family who invited partners for cooperation, it practically turned upside down, becoming the Hua Family trying to please Fan Ye, and the project would inevitably go to the Ling Family.
Wu Hai's repeated provocations naturally became a stumbling block!
Hua Taikang, wanting to clarify his stance and support, made a statement by killing Wu Hai.
To some extent, Wu Hai's death was indeed a bit undeserved.
But Wu Hai's death demanded justification from the Wu Family; if they just swallowed their pride without a fight, then in the Capital, the Wu Family would be left with no dignity! Any commercial activities, other families might give it a second thought!
After all, the Hua Family is a Supreme Family from the Ancient Martial World. If the Wu Family yielded, then any close cooperation with them would seem like antagonizing the Hua Family, wouldn't it?
The immense influence brought by the Elixir Pills business soon to be taken over by the Ling Family would be out of their reach!
Therefore, Wu Jinchuan came directly to seek the Wu Family Ancestor, wanting vengeance through blood. Setting aside killing Hua Taikang, at least killing Fan Ye and obliterating the Ling Family was necessary...
