Best Young Master

Just now, as Ye Wenhao was washing the blood from his body, he sensed through his spiritual sense that Ye Fan’s aura was growing stronger.

At first, Ye Wenhao thought Ye Fan was simply cultivating and didn’t pay much attention, but he quickly realized something was amiss—Ye Fan’s aura was climbing continuously, as if it had no end!

This discovery shocked Ye Wenhao immensely!

After all, there are only two situations in which a martial artist’s aura could become stronger.

First, by using special martial arts.

For example, when Ye Wenhao previously used the awe-inspiring ”Burning Nine Heavens.”

Second, it would be an enhancement of strength.

Beyond the shock, Ye Wenhao hastily changed into a loose set of pajamas and went to the study to try to figure out what was going on.

However—

What he hadn’t expected was that when he arrived at the door of the study, Ye Fan’s aura was still strengthening, and he clearly noticed that Ye Fan wasn’t using any martial arts!

Despite his extreme curiosity, he forcefully suppressed the curiosity in his heart and didn’t disturb Ye Fan until his aura stopped increasing, then he pushed open the door of the study.

”Uh...”

Ye Fan had been completely immersed in the enhancement of his abilities and hadn’t noticed Ye Wenhao approaching the study. Seeing Ye Wenhao enter and ask why his aura had strengthened, he was first taken aback, then honestly replied, ”Dad, I just absorbed the Pure Yang Qi from the Taiyin Xuan Sword. My strength has increased, and I am about to break through to the Innate Great Success realm.”

”What... what?”

As Ye Fan’s answer reached his ears, even Ye Wenhao, with his excellent psychological quality, was greatly startled.

As an Innate Great Perfection cultivator, he knew very well that Pure Yang Qi is one type of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi and is the most precious existence among yang energy, which can not only make one’s vitality exuberant and spiritual energy full, but it also has the function of nourishing and repairing the organs of the body.

It was normal and not surprising for Ye Fan to absorb Pure Yang Qi to enhance his strength.

What surprised him was that the Pure Yang Qi absorbed was condensed from the essence blood of successive Wudang Sect Leaders, and the Taiyin Xuan Sword contained the spiritual imprints of those Sect Leaders—To absorb the Pure Yang Qi inside the Taiyin Xuan Sword, Ye Fan would have to erase those spiritual imprints!

In Ye Wenhao’s view, although Ye Fan’s magic cultivation was not low, it was nearly impossible for Ye Fan, with his current strength, to erase the spiritual imprints left by past Wudang Sect Leaders!

”Didn’t the spiritual imprint inside the Taiyin Xuan Sword attack you?” Ye Wenhao was still in shock.

”It did attack, but the power was very weak.”

Faced with Ye Wenhao’s inquiry, Ye Fan thought for a moment, and eventually, fearing Ye Wenhao might worry, chose not to tell him about his mysterious crimson gold crown and instead fabricated a lie.

”Weak?”

Ye Wenhao was somewhat puzzled, ”The Taiyin Xuan Sword, being the Wudang Sect’s treasure and passed down through generations, shouldn’t have a weak residual spiritual imprint, right?”

”I don’t know what happened either, maybe it was weakened by that powerful strike of yours.” Ye Fan had to bite the bullet and come up with a reason to cover his lie.

”That’s possible.”

Upon hearing this, Ye Wenhao felt that it was highly possible since ”Burning Nine Heavens” could attack both the soul and the body—at the same time. If not for that, Murong Gu would not have died instantly.

”Buzz, buzz...”

As Ye Wenhao finished speaking, the sound of the phone vibrating arose.

”Your aunt is calling, will you take it, or should I?” Ye Wenhao pulled out his phone, saw that it was Chu Ji calling, and reminded him.

Ye Fan gave a wry smile, ”I’m afraid she’ll scold me. You take it.”

”Alright.”

Rarely seeing Ye Fan reveal a child-like side, Ye Wenhao couldn’t help but smile, then answered the call and briefly told Chu Ji about everything that had happened.

”It was good fortune that lad had quick wits to stall for time until you arrived, or the consequences would have been unimaginable.”

After hearing what Ye Wenhao said, Chu Ji breathed a sigh of relief. Then, curiosity sparked within her as she asked, ”Now that both Murong Gu and his son, Murong Sheng are dead, who has the Taiyin Xuan Sword fallen into the hands of? Has it been taken away by the Yanhuang Organization?”
