"I didn't expect the bronze men to have such an extraordinary origin," Ye Fan sighed.
"The Ye family itself is an extraordinary family. Naturally, it has an extraordinary origin," Ye Kong said.
"Father, you said that the bronze men have three levels. What is the third state?" Ye Fan asked.
"The third state," Ye Kong took a deep breath and said slowly, "The third state is the berserk state. Even I haven't seen this state before. It is said that in the berserk state, they are like killing machines. They cooperate very well and even know how to use formations. Their goal is very simple. They will not stop until they kill the other party. Also," Ye Kong said slowly, "to ensure that the other party is completely dead, they will cut off the other party's head …"
“。。。。。” When Ye Fan heard this, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He looked back at the bronze men and couldn't help but feel a little scared. Fortunately, these bronze men were only in the night patrol state. If they were in the berserk state, he couldn't imagine what it would be like to have thirty-three berserk bronze men attacking him at the same time.
"Now that you are back, these bronze men can no longer stay in the night patrol state. Now, you and I will adjust all of these bronze men to the offensive state in case of any accidents," Ye Kong said.
"Okay," Ye Fan said as he adjusted the remaining thirty-two bronze men to the offensive state with his father. After the bronze men were adjusted, Ye Kong led Ye Fan out of the courtyard and to the back garden.
At this time, the back garden was still in the same messy state as a few days ago. Stone tables and chairs were tilted left and right, towering trees were uprooted, and the ground was full of gravel and mud. The only thing that hadn't changed was the rockery. It was still sitting there, forming a sharp contrast with the mess in the courtyard. It looked very strange.
"Looks like a lot happened that night." As Ye Kong stepped over a fallen tree, he told Ye Fan about what had happened in the ancestral home that night. He learned from Huang Shou-yi that the members of the various branches of the Ye family had been awoken by the sound of thunder. They all found it very strange and gathered in the meeting hall of the ancestral home. However, they later found that the other places were peaceful except for the back garden, which was covered with dark clouds, lightning, and thunder. It was winter now, so how could there be dark clouds and sudden thunder? The Ye family had never experienced such a strange thing before. They were very worried about the master who lived in the back garden, so they all came to the outside of the garden. They wanted to come in and see what was going on, but they didn't dare to take a step inside. After all, the family rules were very strict. Without the permission of the master, no one was allowed to enter the back garden. However, there was no other way. This matter was urgent and concerned the safety of the Ye Family. The Ye Family members could not care less and were prepared to rush in together to see what was going on. If nothing happened, they would be punished collectively.
However, just as they were about to open the door and rush in, they found that the master and a young man were hovering in the air. The two of them were fighting in the air. This fight could be said to be earth-shattering. It was as if the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Furthermore, a divine dragon and a strange bird appeared. They knew that Ye Yun was powerful, but they did not know that the master was so powerful that he could fight the mysterious young man to a standstill. Later on, for some reason, the two of them stopped fighting and landed on the ground. After that, no one knew what happened inside. The gatekeeper, Huang Shou-yi, was an impatient person. He could not hold back his temper and directly opened the door and rushed in. When he went in, everyone followed. In the end, they found that other than the mess on the ground, they did not find anyone. The master, Ye Fan, and the young man were all missing.
Two whole days passed. In these two days, although the Ye Clan was extremely anxious, they did not cause any trouble. On one hand, they sent people to inform Ye Kong to return to the ancestral home, and on the other hand, they notified the various branches of the Ye Clan to do their best to search for the head of the family, Ye Yun. However, after mobilizing the entire Ye Family to search for two whole days, there was still no news of Ye Yun. However, the Ye Family was now divided into two factions. One faction believed that the current plan was to continue searching for Ye Yun while selecting a new master. In short, the Ye Family could not be without a leader. Now that such a big matter had happened, the Ye Family should immediately enter a state of emergency and quickly select a new master. They should also take out the Armament Forging Manual and Bronze Figure Manual from the jade snake seat in the ancestral hall and hand it to the new master. They wanted the new master to seize the time to cultivate the Armament Forging Manual in case of any accidents.
However, the other faction did not think so. They felt that the master was only temporarily absent and that it was not to the point of selecting a new master. From the situation at that time, it seemed that Ye Yun and the young man were only exchanging pointers and did not fight to the death. Otherwise, with Ye Yun's temper, he would have either told everyone to deal with a strong enemy together or informed everyone to avoid danger. In addition, Ye Yun was not at a disadvantage at that time, so it was impossible for anything to happen to the master, Ye Yun.
Just as the two factions were quarreling endlessly in the meeting hall, Ye Yun pushed the door open and walked in. Instantly, everyone stopped quarreling and became silent. They all stood up and bowed to Ye Yun. Those who were clamoring to select a new master did not even dare to breathe loudly. It must be known that the Ye Family's rules were extremely strict. Other than the current master who violated the ancestral teachings or was seriously ill or had died suddenly, an exception could be made to select a new master. No one was allowed to propose the selection of a new master without authorization. Those who violated the rules would be severely punished.
Ye Yun pushed the door open and entered the room. After sitting in the master's seat, he swept his gaze over everyone. He did not speak for a long time with a serious expression. When everyone saw this, they were silent like cicadas in winter.
"What happened after that?" Ye Fan asked Ye Kong. He did not know what had happened in the ancestral house two days ago.
"When I heard the news, I came here the next day. When the master returned, I was also present. At that time, your grandfather was expressionless and had a grave expression. I have never seen your grandfather like this in my life. After he walked to the main seat in the meeting hall and sat down, he only said three things. "Ye Kong recalled the scene at that time and told Ye Fan.
"What three things?" Ye Fan asked.
"First, except for me, the others were ordered to immediately return to their branches. Furthermore, they were to close the pawnshop business and refuse to see anyone. After returning home, they were to close the door and hide in a secret room. They were to prepare dry food and drinking water and activate all the mechanisms in the residence. "
"Second, even if they found an intruder, they were to close the door and not come out. They were not to fight blindly. They were to try their best not to let the other party find out where they were hiding. "
"Third, once their whereabouts were discovered, they were to quickly escape without any hesitation. No matter how much money they had, they were not to be reluctant to leave. They were to immediately hide in the deep mountains and forests. They were not to show themselves without receiving the Ye family's secret signal."
"Finally, your grandfather told everyone present that a strong enemy would come to the Ye family in a few days. He did not know what their purpose was, but presumably, it was for the Ye family's' Weapon Forging Manual '. If this matter was not handled properly, the Ye family would be in danger of being exterminated. If they did not receive the Ye family's secret signal within three days, it would prove that the ancestral house had been destroyed. If that was the case, the Ye family was not allowed to investigate the ins and outs of this matter. They were not allowed to seek revenge. They were to change their names, sell their belongings, and go far away. In short, the farther they were from here, the better. As for the 'Weapon Forging Manual', he would rather destroy it than give it to them. " Ye Kong sighed and said, "Since the Ye family became famous, we have experienced many big and small tribulations, but we have never been as nervous as we are now. If your grandfather had not told me personally, I would not have believed that such a thing would happen. It seems that this calamity is really a life and death calamity for the Ye family. " Ye Kong sighed and said, "I have already informed the family. Everything will be done according to the head's instructions. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing to involve you this time."
"Father, you don't have to worry. As the saying goes, when brothers fight, father and son go into battle. I'm sure grandfather has already told you that Fan 'er is no longer the same as he was in the past. " Ye Fan understood Ye Kong's thoughts. If the Ye family lost this battle, then the three of them would not be able to escape from the Yellow Springs. They would also be known as inferior, causing the Ye family's thousand years of reputation to be destroyed.
In the blink of an eye, the father and son had already arrived outside Ye Yun's room. After Ye Kong knocked on the door, he brought Ye Fan directly into the inner room. When Ye Fan saw his grandfather meditating on the bed, he could not help but be shocked. At this moment, Ye Yun's face was rosy and full of vigor. Even the wrinkles on his face had disappeared. It was as if he was ten years younger. He actually looked to be about the same age as his father, Ye Kong. Ye Fan knew in his heart that this was definitely the effect of Brother Kim possessing him. He did not expect that possessing him for two days would result in such a shocking change.
"Ye Fan greets the head." Ye Fan knelt down and bowed. Rules were rules. Even his grandfather could not be sloppy.
"Fan Er, you are here." Ye Yun opened his eyes and got off the bed. He smiled and helped Ye Fan up. "Now that there are only the three of us, grandfather and grandson, there is no need to adhere to those rules."
After Ye Fan got up, Ye Yun began to size up Ye Fan. "As expected of the Xuanmen Secret Technique. In just three days, you were actually reborn. Now that you have half a foot in the Three Realms, your ancestors are truly virtuous. "Ye Yun said with a smile.
"Grandfather, you are also doing well. Look at how you are now, you are completely different from three days ago. I think your cultivation level must have increased by another level. "Ye Fan also said with a smile.
"Hahahaha …" The grandfather and grandson looked at each other and laughed. They had a tacit understanding.
"Sky Dragon has already told me everything about you in my dreams. I did not expect Fan Er to have such a background. In your past life, you were actually sworn brothers with that person. But even so, you are still the blood of the Ye Family. You are still my eldest grandson, Ye Yun. Don't you think so? "Ye Yun asked Ye Fan.
"Grandfather, what are you saying? Of course I am a member of the Ye Family. Of course I am your eldest grandson."
"Good." Ye Yun continued. "Sky Dragon in the ancestral hall told me that only the three of us and the person on the Agonizing Hawk Peak can resolve this calamity. Before I came back, I had already gone to the Agonizing Hawk Peak. Unfortunately …" Ye Yun sighed. "I did not manage to ask that expert for help. It seems like only the three of us can fight this time. "
"Father, who is that expert on the Agonizing Hawk Peak? Why don't I know about him? "Ye Kong asked Ye Yun.
"Sigh, it's a long story." Ye Yun gestured for Ye Fan and Ye Kong to sit down. He also sat on the cloud bed and told them the whole story.
"This is the Ye Clan's greatest secret, and it has only been passed down by word of mouth from generation to generation. Now that the Ye Clan is facing a great calamity, I will make an exception and tell you all about it. Once it is out of my mouth and into your ears, no matter whether you can survive this calamity or not, none of you can say a single word about it," Ye Yun instructed.
"Father, don't worry. Fan Er and I will not say a word." Ye Kong said.
"Grandfather, I forgot to tell you. I passed by the Agonizing Hawk Peak on my way back and met that expert." Ye Fan told Ye Yun and Ye Kong everything that happened on the Agonizing Hawk Peak.
"What? You can fly now? "Ye Yun asked in surprise. Ye Kong's expression changed drastically.
"This …" Ye Fan thought that his grandfather Ye Yun already knew that his Brother Kim had taught him the technique. However, it seemed that Ye Yun did not know everything.
"It's just a simple flying technique. I can't ride the clouds." Ye Fan explained.
"Hahahaha, good boy. It seems that the Ye Family has a chance of surviving this calamity." Ye Yun said. "I only heard from the Sky Dragon that you have spiritual energy in your body. I didn't expect you to be able to fly in just three days. Good! Good! Good! Hahahaha … "Ye Yun seemed to be overjoyed. He said 'good' three times in a row.
"I saw how you moved when you were fighting the bronze man. It didn't look like a flying technique. So that's why." Ye Kong was enlightened.
"Grandfather, what happened to that expert on the Agonizing Hawk Peak?" Ye Fan asked Ye Yun again.
Hearing Ye Fan's question, Ye Yun put away the smile on his face and said, "What Fan 'er heard is the truth. The expert at the top of the Hawksorrow Peak is indeed from the Ye Family and it's just as he said. The Ye Family has wronged him." Ye Yun sighed when he mentioned this. "His name is Ye Ming. He has been living in seclusion on the Agonizing Hawk Peak since 300 years ago."
"What?" Ye Fan almost spat out the tea in his mouth. "300 years ago?"
Ye Fan was shocked.
