"Chengfeng, thank you."
Ji Qingxue was completely stunned by Ye Chenfeng's strength. She never thought that Ye Chenfeng would be able to defeat Shangguan Yuancheng, who was ranked thirty-fifth on the Heavenly Fire Martial Ranking, in just over a month after entering the Heavenly Fire Martial House.
At this moment, she felt a trace of regret in her heart. She regretted using Ye Chenfeng as a shield and hurting him. However, when she thought of Master Chen, who was the first person to touch her heart, the regret in her heart lessened by a lot.
"This is nothing. You don't have to take it to heart. If it wasn't for me, they wouldn't have targeted you." Ye Chenfeng shook his head and said indifferently.
Ji Qingxue looked at Ye Chenfeng's cold face and lightly bit her alluring red lips. "Chengfeng, your grandfather … no, Patriarch Ye asked me to pass a message to you. He wants to see you and return something that belongs to you."
"Thank you. When I have time, I will make a trip to the Ye Clan." Ye Chenfeng nodded and said, "Oh right, this is for you."
Ye Chenfeng took out the remaining Jiuqu Spirit Pill that was practically useless to him and gave it to Ji Qingxue.
"Chengfeng, this is too precious. I can't accept it." Seeing Ye Chenfeng give the Jiuqu Spirit Pill to her, Ji Qingxue's eyes revealed a complicated expression as she declined.
"I can protect you for now, but I can't protect you forever. If you don't want to be bullied, you need to have strength." After saying that, Ye Chenfeng forcefully stuffed the Jiuqu Spirit Pill into Ji Qingxue's soft hands and turned to return to his small courtyard.
"Ye Chenfeng, thank you." Seeing Ye Chenfeng's departing figure, Ji Qingxue's heart was filled with mixed feelings. She never thought that in the end, she would have to rely on Ye Chenfeng, who she had never placed in her eyes.
"With my current strength, I wonder if I can fight against a Rank 1 Earthly Beast General if I use Half-Step Sword Force."
In the battle with Shangguan Yuancheng just now, Ye Chenfeng had tested the results of his hard work. He had broken through to become a Rank 3 Beast Illusionist and cultivated his Viscera Refining Realm to 40%. He had the ability to defeat a normal Rank 6 Beast Illusionist.
And if he used Half-Step Sword Force, Ye Chenfeng felt that he should be able to fight against a Level 1 Earth Beast General. However, whether or not he could defeat his opponent would still need to be tested in battle.
At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun shone upon the mountains and rivers, interweaving into a floating picture that was incomparably magnificent.
After resting for several hours, Ye Chenfeng recovered to his best condition. He glanced at the dazzling sunset outside the window and muttered to himself, "It's time to go back and take a look at the Ye Family."
Ye Chenfeng didn't have any feelings for the Ye family, but he had deep feelings for his foster father, Ye Chenfeng. If Ye Xuanxiang hadn't taken him in when he was young and raised him, there wouldn't be the current Ye Chenfeng.
With regards to Ye Xuanxiang's sudden death, Ye Chenfeng had always been suspicious. This time, when he returned to the Ye Family, he would definitely find out the truth and take revenge for his foster father, whom he was indebted to.
"Elder Liu, I would like to return to Zi Jin Imperial City. I wonder if I can borrow a Green Winged Dove?" Ye Chenfeng stepped on the sunset and found Elder Liu, asking to borrow a Green Winged Dove.
"Of course," Elder Liu agreed without hesitation.
After seeing Ye Chenfeng's monstrous talent, Elder Liu valued him even more. He completely believed that as long as Ye Chenfeng was given enough time and space, he would soar to the heavens.
"Thank you, Elder Liu." Ye Chenfeng gratefully said. With the help of Elder Liu, they managed to borrow an Azure Winged Dove with a wingspan of over ten meters and feathers that were a shade of azure. They left the Heavenly Fire Martial House, crossed the boundless Purple Cloud Mountain Range, and flew back to the outskirts of the Violet Gold Imperial City.
"Wait for me here."
After Ye Chenfeng gave the order to the highly intelligent Green Winged Dove, he returned to Zi Jin Imperial City alone and walked towards the Ye Family Residence.
Strolling along the spacious streets of Zi Jin Imperial City, looking at the luxurious buildings on both sides of the street, and the young women who were laughing and playing with each other, Ye Chenfeng's heart was as calm as still water.
After embarking on the path of cultivation, Ye Chenfeng no longer felt much about the colorful world of the secular world. The only thing he yearned for now was to cultivate against the heavens and break through the void.
"I'm here."
About an hour later, Ye Chenfeng passed through the night and arrived at the brightly lit Ye Family Residence. Looking at the residence in his memory, Ye Chenfeng recalled some memories.
"Please help me pass on the message that Ye Chenfeng has come to keep the appointment." Ye Chenfeng stood outside the grand entrance of the Ye Family Residence and said in a deep voice.
"Young Master, you're back."
Hearing the guard's report, the old housekeeper immediately walked out of the residence and said excitedly.
"You called the wrong person. I'm no longer a member of the Ye Family." Ye Chenfeng said without a trace of emotion and walked into the familiar yet strange Ye Family Residence.
"Chengfeng, you're finally back."
Ye Chenfeng had just walked into the lush green front yard when the Ye Family Head, Ye Qingchuan, hurriedly walked out with a group of Ye Family disciples to welcome him.
Looking at the familiar faces, Ye Chenfeng didn't feel a trace of excitement in his heart. Among these people, other than Ye Qingchuan and Ye Ziling who treated him slightly better, the others had never treated him as a member of the Ye Family.
"Ye Family Head, I heard from Ji Qingxue that you want to give me something."
Ye Chenfeng looked at Ye Qingchuan calmly and asked indifferently.
"Yes, Chengfeng, let's talk in my study."
Hearing Ye Chenfeng's address and seeing his cold eyes, Ye Qingchuan smiled bitterly. However, he didn't blame Ye Chenfeng. After all, he was the one who expelled him from the Ye Family when he was at his most difficult time. It was reasonable for him to not recognize the Ye Family.
"Okay!"
Ye Chenfeng nodded and followed Ye Qingchuan to his study.
"Chengfeng, expelling you from the Ye Family is the one thing I regret the most in my life. I apologize to you. For the sake of your adoptive father, I wonder if you're still willing to come back?"
Ye Qingchuan personally poured a cup of tea for Ye Chenfeng and looked at his chiseled face as he asked softly.
"Ye Family Head, let bygones be bygones. I'm now wholeheartedly cultivating and don't want to be affected by worldly matters." Ye Chenfeng shook his head and tactfully refused.
"Sigh, actually, I've already thought of the ending, but I'm still a little unwilling to give up." Ye Qingchuan said with a bitter smile.
"Chenfeng, the thing in this jade case was found by your adoptive father on your body when he found you. It might be related to your birth. Right now, it's returned to its rightful owner," Ye Qingchuan said as he took out a jade case from his bosom and handed it to Ye Chenfeng.
"Yes …"
Hearing Ye Qingchuan's words, Ye Chenfeng raised his eyebrows and immediately opened the jade box. He found a piece of dark golden wood that was about one inch long and had a smooth surface without any patterns lying in Silence.
Taking out this piece of dark golden wood, Ye Chenfeng suddenly felt a blood connection. He hesitated for a moment, then bit his finger and pressed it on the dark golden wood.
Immediately, Ye Chenfeng felt a strong suction force coming from the wood, greedily absorbing his blood. When a strand of golden blood that was hard to detect fused into the dark golden wood, suddenly, a golden light shone out. Seven words faintly appeared on the wood: Eastern Continent, Abyss of Hell.
