Boom …
Huge waves surged on the surface of the Heavenly Lake, and a pillar of water soared into the sky!
Within the water column, a red shadow broke out of the water in an instant!
Ye Fan looked completely different now, from his appearance to his clothes!
He was wearing a purple gold crown on his head, a bright red robe embroidered with dragons, a jade belt with eight treasures around his waist, and a pair of immortal shoes on his feet. He had sword-like eyebrows, starry eyes, black hair, and jade-like skin. He was handsome and dignified!
No matter who the person was, he couldn't show his real face.
He had to make sure that no one knew that he came to the Heavenly Lake to search for the cauldron.
After coming out of the water, Ye Fan stopped in the air. He waved the sleeves of his red robe and stood in the air with his hands behind his back. He looked at the opposite side calmly.
On the top of a mountain not far from the shore of the Heavenly Lake, an old man was looking at Ye Fan with a smile on his face.
The old man looked to be in his sixties. He had silver hair and a pair of small eyes, which were full of energy, flashed with a strange light!
What shocked Ye Fan even more was that the old man was wearing a golden dragon robe and a jade belt with a coiled dragon around his waist!
Could he be a member of the Imperial Family?
Ye Fan frowned.
The two of them looked at each other from a distance and observed each other. Neither of them said a word.
The night wind blew, causing the robes on their bodies to flutter in the wind, making a flapping sound!
After a long time, the old man broke the silence and said to Ye Fan, "This little brother is really capable. You have such a powerful cultivation at such a young age. I really admire you!"
"Senior, you flatter me," Ye Fan, who was floating in the air, replied to the old man in a deep voice, "Senior, your cultivation is not bad either."
Ye Fan had sensed the old man's cultivation just now. Like him, the old man's Primordial Spirit had also come out of his body!
The aura emitted from his body was overbearing and evil. It was familiar yet strange!
"Hahaha …" After the old man heard Ye Fan's words, he threw his head back and laughed. "I really didn't expect that this old man would actually be praised by a young man today, hahaha …"
"May I know why Senior has come here in the middle of the night?" Ye Fan didn't have the leisure to chat with this person, and directly cut to the chase.
If this person was an expert passing by, he would directly leave. If this person was one of Xie Tian's Nine Demon Guards, he would see if he could see through his identity.
If Matsumoto Takeyoshi didn't recognize him, everything would be fine. If he recognized him, he would go all the way and kill him. He couldn't let Matsumoto Takeyoshi know that his Primordial Spirit had left his body and came here to search for the cauldron!
"Hahaha …" The old man stroked his white beard and laughed heartily, "Just like you, this old man came here in the middle of the night for the Divine Cauldron in the Water."
As the old man spoke, he looked at Ye Fan with a pair of bright eyes. His gaze was as sharp as a knife, extremely sharp!
When Ye Fan heard this, he was shocked and his expression changed!
This person actually knew that there was a divine cauldron hidden under this heavenly lake!
Another cauldron seeker!
Ye Fan thought in his heart.
"If this old man isn't wrong, little brother has already broken the enchantment of the underwater divine cauldron and obtained the secret patterns on the divine cauldron." The old man in the dragon robe said with a smile.
When he said this, Ye Fan's pupils instantly constricted!
What kind of background did this old man have? He even knew about the patterns of the divine cauldron!
"Senior, what do you mean by that?" Ye Fan narrowed his eyes and asked the old man, his voice turning cold.
He wanted to hear what the old man had to say. If this person really knew about his secrets, then he had to get rid of him to prevent future troubles.
"Just now, the heavenly lake shook and the golden and red light soared into the sky. From this, it can be inferred that this divine cauldron enchantment was broken by little brother." The dragon robed old man said with a smile.
"What about the divine cauldron's patterns?" Ye Fan asked coldly, "How did senior know?"
"Hahaha …" "That's even simpler." The old man laughed loudly, "Those who want to seize the divine cauldron only have three goals. First, to seize the world and become a great treasure. Second, to gather the patterns on the nine cauldrons and cultivate the ancient secret techniques. Third, to obtain the supreme inscriptions within the cauldron, cultivate the supreme divine power, and achieve an immortal body. Little brother, you did not take the divine cauldron away, which proves that little brother does not have the heart to become an emperor. The bell keeper of this cauldron did not appear, which proves that little brother did not take the inscriptions within the cauldron. From these two points, we can deduce that little brother must have broken the seal of the divine cauldron for the patterns on the cauldron.
The old man's words left Ye Fan speechless.
This person was extremely intelligent, his thoughts were meticulous, his reasoning was bold and meticulous, and from the details, one could see his true skills.
"What about senior?" Ye Fan asked the old man, "Senior, why are you looking for the cauldron? The world, or power? Or perhaps both? "
"What? Is my dragon robe not enough to answer your question? " The old man raised his arms and smiled as he looked down at his golden dragon robe.
"Senior, are you looking for the cauldron to seize the Great Ming Dynasty?" Ye Fan frowned and asked the old man in the dragon robe.
With the dragon robe on, there was no need to ask further.
"I'm not seizing, I'm retrieving." The old man raised his head and smiled.
"Retrieving?" Ye Fan asked doubtfully.
"That's right. This country was originally conquered by my clan's great ancestor, so you can only say that it's retrieving, not seizing," the old man said with a dignified expression.
"Senior, you mean …" Ye Fan seemed to understand the old man's meaning.
"As long as you know my surname, you will understand what I mean," the old man said calmly.
"May I know senior's name?" Ye Fan asked.
"Zhao." The old man spat out a word.
"Zhao?" Ye Fan was shocked when he heard this. "Senior, could it be that you are …"
"That's right. I am a direct descendant of the Great Song Dynasty," the old man said with dignity.
Great Song Dynasty?
Ye Fan immediately understood the old man's words.
This person was wearing a dragon robe and was looking for the nine cauldrons to restore the Great Song Dynasty!
"Now you understand why I'm looking for the nine cauldrons, right?" The old man recovered his previous tone and asked Ye Fan.
Ye Fan nodded slowly.
"You take the pattern of the divine cauldron, and I take the body of the nine cauldrons. It seems like we can work together in the future," the old man said to Ye Fan with a smile.
"Work together? How? "Ye Fan raised his eyebrows and asked.
"After you find the divine cauldron and get the pattern, you can tell me the location of the divine cauldron. After I find the divine cauldron, I can tell you the location and let you get the pattern. How about it?" The old man looked at Ye Fan with bright eyes and said, "If I become emperor in the future, I will definitely not treat you unfairly and let you enjoy all the glory and wealth."
Ye Fan smiled when he heard this.
"Have you thought about it?" the old man asked Ye Fan.
"Senior, you're really counting your chickens before they hatch," Ye Fan said with a smile. "These two conditions may seem fair at first, but in reality, they're not. Regardless of whether you find the divine cauldron first or I find it first, we must first break the enchantment in order to take the pattern. Senior, you're using me to break the enchantment to take the divine cauldron and reap the benefits."
The old man was smart, but he was not stupid.
"Hehehe …" The old man laughed dryly and said, "We each take what we need. Why not?"
"Thank you for your kindness, senior." Ye Fan smiled as he replied, "I've always been a free and undisciplined person. I'm a lone wolf and I'm not used to working with others. I think that we shouldn't take what we need from each other. It's better if we each display our own abilities."
The reason why the nine divine cauldrons were so difficult to find was because they were protected by a powerful enchantment.
This person wanted to use his power to help him find the nine cauldrons and ascend to the throne. It was simply wishful thinking!
As Ye Fan spoke, he stepped into the void and prepared to leave.
"Little Brother." The moment Ye Fan turned around, the old man's voice sounded from behind him.
Ye Fan stopped in his tracks and did not move.
"We can't do business, but we can still be friends. I hope that we won't become enemies in the future," the old man said calmly to Ye Fan.
"I'm only looking for the pattern of the divine cauldron. I don't care about anything else. It has nothing to do with me who becomes the Emperor. However," Ye Fan said as he turned his head. "If anyone deliberately makes an enemy out of me and blocks my path, I'll make them regret it."
"What do you mean by that? Are you threatening me? "the old man asked calmly.
"That depends on what Senior thinks." The red-robed Ye Fan smiled and turned his head. With a wave of his sleeve, he turned into a bright blood-red star and instantly streaked across the sky and disappeared.
After Ye Fan left, a mysterious smile appeared on the old man's face.
He lowered his head and looked at the Heavenly Lake that was gradually calming down. Then, he circulated his Essence Soul's spiritual energy.
Buzz … As a black beam of light shot out from the old man's body, a bright black swastika appeared between his eyebrows!
Whoosh!
The dragon-robed old man instantly transformed into a black beam and charged into the Heavenly Lake …
In the sky above the East Sea, a blood-red star with a long tail tore through Ye Kong and headed straight for the boat!
Whoosh!
As the blood-red star charged into the boat's cabin, Ye Fan's figure appeared out of thin air!
However, what shocked him was that his physical body was not sitting cross-legged. Instead, it was hugging Baihu and looking at him with a smile!
In the cabin, the black-robed Ye Fan drank tea as he asked the red-robed Ye Fan's Essence Soul, "How did you become like this?"
Baihu, who was in the black-robed Ye Fan's arms, immediately understood when she saw Ye Fan speaking to the void in front of her.
The black-robed Ye Fan had already explained everything to her just now.
She raised her head and looked into the void, her eyes filled with concern.
However, she could not see anything.
"Why didn't you stay in your bamboo forest? What are you doing here?" The Hong Pao Ye Fan frowned and slowly descended from the void.
"Matsumoto Takeyoshi and that white-robed man just left. What do you think I'm doing here?" The black-robed Ye Fan calmly put down his teacup and said.
"Matsumoto Takeyoshi? White-robed man? "The Hong Pao Ye Fan immediately became nervous upon hearing the black-robed Ye Fan's words." They were here? "
"How clever do you think your escape plan is?" The black-robed Ye Fan looked up at the Red Clothed Ye Fan. "You might be able to fool that white-robed man, but you won't be able to fool Matsumoto Takeyoshi. If I hadn't appeared in time, your act would have been ruined."
The Red Clothed Ye Fan frowned.
He had really underestimated Matsumoto Takeyoshi.
He originally thought that as long as his physical body was here, Matsumoto Takeyoshi would not suspect anything. He never expected that Matsumoto Takeyoshi would become suspicious and come here personally!
"I didn't give myself away, right?" The Red Clothed Ye Fan asked with a frown.
"Nothing happened this time. I don't know if it will happen again," the black-robed Ye Fan said.
"Thank you." The Red Clothed Ye Fan said to the black-robed Ye Fan.
"Since you are back, it's time for me to return to the bamboo forest. Remember, that white-robed man is different from before. It's best you don't underestimate him." The black-robed Ye Fan said.
The Red Clothed Ye Fan wanted to ask what Matsumoto Takeyoshi had said, but he realized that his physical body's eyes were tightly shut and there was no movement.
When Ye Fan saw this, he walked straight to his physical body. His Essence Soul returned to his body, and his body and soul became one.
With a hum, a green light gently emitted from Ye Fan's body. Ye Fan opened his eyes.
"Wu …" Baihu sensed the change in Ye Fan's aura. She gently raised her front paw and pressed on Ye Fan's shoulder. Her clear eyes stared intently at Ye Fan.
