Chapter 3992: The Strong Are Revered

When Ye Chen Feng brought out his prominent divine sword with a complete artifact soul, Wanqi Wu Ming knew that no one in the Wanqi clan would be a match for Ye Chen Feng. He had only asked Wanqi Yu Ning for help not because Wanqi Yu Ning was the strongest person in the clan, but because of Wanqi Yu Ning’s seniority. Even if Wanqi Yu Ning was not a match for Ye Chen Feng, he had higher seniority than Ye Chen Feng. Moreover, Wanqi Yu Ning always had a good reputation. He hoped that Ye Chen Feng would let him go for Wanqi Yu Ning’s sake.

Wanqi Yu Ning, who had yet to speak until now, finally looked at Ye Chen Feng and said, “Ye Chen Feng, Wanqi Jue only had himself to blame for his death so the Wanqi clan won’t hold you accountable for his death. As for the prominent divine artifact soul with an incomplete artifact soul, the Wanqi clan will honor the bet.”

The members of the Wanqi clan knew Wanqi Yu Ning’s suggestion was their only way out at this moment even if they felt unwilling. If they stood their ground and opposed Ye Chen Feng, there would surely be a bloodbath. Most importantly, the Wanqi clan was no match for Ye Chen Feng now.

Wanqi Yu Ning continued to say, “Wanqi Wu Ming is an accomplice. He’ll be grounded; he’s prohibited from leaving the Wanqi clan’s estate for 10,000 years. If he leaves, you can kill him.”

Upon hearing Wanqi Yu Ning’s words, Wanqi Wu Ming’s expression soured immediately. Nonetheless, he remained silent. After all, the alternative was death.

“Apart from that, as a token of apology, the Wanqi clan will still give you 200 king-grade Limit Divine Pills within 100 years,” Wanqi Yu Ning said. After a beat, he asked, “Are you satisfied with this?”

Clearly, Wanqi Yu Ning had made a huge concession.

Duan Ling Tian, who was standing behind Ye Chen Feng, was visibly surprised that the strongest powerhouse in the Wanqi clan gave him so easily. At the same time, he also knew that today’s matter would come to an end with Wanqi Yu Ning’s words.

This time, the Wanqi clan’s plan backfired, and they suffered a great loss.

‘In fact, the Wanqi clan’s previous actions are understandable. Their plan is quite fool-proof as well. Alas, they didn’t expect that Elder Ye had successfully nurtured his artifact soul to completion,’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself.

If Ye Chen Feng’s prominent divine sword did not have a complete artifact soul, he would not have been able to force the Wanqi clan to give up the prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul, let alone force the Wanqi clan to make such a huge concession.

‘As expected, the strong are revered. Elder Ye is a prime example of that…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as the desire to grow stronger burned in his heart after witnessing Ye Chen Feng in action today.

As Duan Ling Tian expected, Ye Chen Feng smiled faintly and said, “I’m not unreasonable. Since Elder Yu Ning has spoken, then let this matter end here.”

The corners of the lips of everyone in the Wanqi clan twitched upon hearing these words.

Even the corners of Zhen Ping Fan and Duan Ling Tian’s lips upon hearing these words. The duo exchanged a glance tacitly.

If Ye Chen Feng was reasonable, he would not have broken the Wanqi clan’s Guarding Formation as soon as he arrived and killed so many disciples from the Wanqi clan. If he was reasonable, he would not have attacked and killed Wanqi Jue without giving Wanqi Jue a chance at all.

Ye Chen Feng chuckled and said, “Let’s just do as Elder Yu Ning suggested.”

After Ye Chen Feng finished speaking, he lifted his hand casually and brought his emperor-grade flying ship out. Without another word to the people of the Wanqi clan, he left along with Zhen Ping Fan and Duan Ling Tian.

After the trio left, silence permeated the sky above the Wanqi clan’s estate even though there were quite a number of people gathered there.

After a while, Wanqi Yu Ning sighed heavily and said, “You should all discuss with me before taking action. I can see the bigger picture. I don’t have much time left to live. When the time comes, I won’t be able to bring my prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul with me. At that time, I’ll naturally give it to Wanqi Jue.”

Previously, Wanqi Yu Ning was kept in the dark when the decision was made to send Wanqi Wu Ming to help Wanqi Jue snatch back the prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul from Zhen Ping Fan. Naturally, at that time, he was also unaware that Wanqi Jue and Wanqi Wu Ming had snatched the weapon back under Zhen Yun Feng’s nose. He only found out about the matter after everything was said and done. Although he was frustrated, there was nothing else he could do. After all, they had already offended the Pure Yang Sect.

Moreover, after thinking about it, Wanqi Yu Ning thought that if he was privy to the situation, he might have felt hesitant but there was a possibility that he would eventually agree to snatch the prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul back at the risk of offending the Pure Yang Sect as well.

It was true that Wanqi Yu Ning could not bring his prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul with him after his death. However, all humans had selfish desires.If the Wanqi clan was not in danger, he wanted to leave his weapon to his grandson, a rudimentary Emperor of Gods. Moreover, there was still a chance for him to become an advanced Emperor of Gods after the Seven Mansions Feast. If he was successful, he would not die.

With all things considered, there was a chance Wanqi Yu Ning might not have objected even if he was involved in the decision-making process. After all, he was reluctant to give his prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul to Wanqi Jue unless it was absolutely necessary.

It was truly unfortunate that no one from the Wanqi clan knew that Ye Chen Feng had already nurtured his artifact soul to completion. They did not even consider this possibility.

Needless to say, if Wanqi Yu Ning knew about this, he would have definitely opposed the plan strongly and proposed to give his prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul to Wanqi Jue without hesitation.

Alas, there was no redo in life.

Wanqi Liu Su said with a sigh, “It’s too late to say anything now. It’s truly unexpected that Ye Chen Feng nurtured his artifact soul to completion. How on earth did he do it?”

Regardless of how Ye Chen Feng did it, the Wanqi clan could only admit defeat. No one expected the strongest powerhouse in the Pure Yang Sect would suddenly own a prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul. With that weapon, his strength was on par with ordinary or weaker advanced Emperor of Gods.

At this time, Wanqi Yu Ning turned to the side and said solemnly, “Wu Ming, I said that earlier to preserve your life. I hope you understand.”

Wanqi Wu Ming nodded with a grim expression on his face. “I understand, Uncle Yu Ning. It’s a great blessing that Ye Chen Feng let me go today. It’s also good for me to stay in the clan’s estate. I’ll use this time to cultivate and focus on breaking through to become an advanced Emperor of Gods.”

Wanqi Yu Ning nodded in satisfaction upon hearing Wanqi Wu Ming’s words.

At this moment, a figure suddenly flashed and prepared near Wanqi Yu Ning and the others.

“Ancestor.”

The newcomer was none other than Wanqi Hong, Wanqi Jue’s great-great-grandson. He was also the most outstanding prodigy in the Wanqi clan, making him the pride of the Wanqi clan.

Although Wanqi Hong lost Wanqi Jue’s prominent divine artifact with an incomplete artifact soul, only a few blamed him. After all, he was young and reckless. Who was not impulsive when they were young? More than anything, most people blamed Wanqi Jue for being reckless and blinded by his pride.

“Little Hong, you… You saw everything?”

Although Wanqi Hong looked very calm, Wanqi Liu Su could sense the killing intent rising from Wanqi Hong’s body.

Wanqi Hong looked at Wanqi Yu Ning and Wanqi Liu Su as he said solemnly, “Clan leader, Ancestor, if I rank in the top three during the Seven Mansions Feast, we’ll be given three slots. Since Elder Wu Ming is grounded, he won’t be able to go to that place. If I rank in the top three, I hope you’ll let me have one of the slots. I plan to give it to someone who will help me kill Ye Chen Feng! Of course, you can make the person I choose swear on the Devil’s Heart Blood Oath if he becomes an advanced Emperor of Gods. You can make him swear to serve the Wanqi clan as a Revered Elder for 1,000 years.”

Wanqi Hong had witnessed his great-great-grandfather’s death earlier. He was filled with fury and despair at that time. However, after he calmed down, he began to think of ways to avenge his great-great-grandfather.

“What a filial child,” Wanqi Yu Ning said with a sigh, “However, listen to me and let go of this grudge. At least, let it go for now. We know you’re filial, but Ye Chen Feng isn’t so easy to kill. He has a higher chance than all of us to become an advanced Emperor of Gods after the Seven Mansions Feast. Even if you manage to find someone and make him swear on the Devil’s Heart Blood Oath to help you kill Ye Chen Feng, he might not be a match for Ye Chen Feng even if he successfully becomes an advanced Emperor of Gods.”

Wanqi Hong said resolutely, “Elder, I’ve thought this through. If things happen as you said, then I’ll seek revenge myself!”

…

During the journey back to the Pure Yang Sect.

In the emperor-grade flying ship.

Zhen Ping Fan asked Ye Chen Feng many questions. He even asked to have a look at Ye Chen Feng’s prominent divine sword with a complete artifact soul. He studied the sword curiously, looking like a child from the countryside who had arrived in a huge city for the first time.

Duan Ling Tian, who was sitting cross-legged in a corner, shook his head when he saw this. Nonetheless, he understood Zhen Ping Fan’s feelings.

Ye Chen Feng said with a hint of helplessness, “Kid, you’re already so old, but why are you more immature than Duan Ling Tian?”

Upon hearing this, Zhen Ping Fan glanced at Duan Ling Tian before he said with a grin, “Duan Ling Tian is just too embarrassed to come forward to have a look. I’m sure he’s very curious about this prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul as well!”

Duan Ling Tian rolled his eyes inwardly. ‘It’s just a prominent divine artifact with a complete artifact soul. What’s the big deal? I have one as well. Moreover, I had it before Elder Ye has one.’

At this time, Duan Ling Tian recalled something. He was slightly anxious as he asked, “Huang’er, Elder Ye’s artifact soul isn’t aware of your existence, right?”
