Chapter 4054: The Wolves Are Here, and So Is the Shotgun

ng the might of heaven and earth destruction, directly slashing towards the fifth head of the eight-headed serpent.Everything happened so suddenly, everyone was taken aback, including the drooling eig...Ye Bufan was slightly taken aback, and then he understood the other party's intentions. This was to protect him.

Although he has now attained the position of King of Dan, his status and rank are comparable to that of the masters of the five major sects.

But strength is ultimately strength. If Lingxiao Sect makes a secret move, facing a saint-level powerhouse alone would be impossible.

And Qin Fei publicly acknowledged herself as her younger brother, which was a public statement made on behalf of Qin Jian Shan Zhuang. Anyone who wanted to touch her had to weigh the consequences.

Having figured this out, he smiled faintly: "Sister, where are you getting that from Even if I were just a small-time Dan King, or even became a true Saint Emperor in the future, you'd still be my sister, nothing would ever change."

At this moment, Zhuge Qingyang strode forward. He represented the entire competition side. Since the Dan King Competition had come to an end, it was time to award the prizes.

"Congratulations, Ye Danwang! This is the prize I promised before!"

After he spoke, he raised his hand and a storage ring flew to Ye Bufan's face.

Ye Bufan nodded in thanks, then with a sweep of his divine sense, he found that the previously awarded prizes were still there, fifteen Immortal Spirit Herbs, including three Ning Shen Fruits.

This made him feel great: "All good stuff, this competition was worth it."

Zhuge Qingyang's voice once again echoed throughout Tiansheng City: "Everyone, the Dan Wang competition is now over. The top fifty alchemists will gather at the west gate three days later and enter the Xianpa Lingjing together."

The competition ended and the crowd dispersed. Ye Bufan returned to the residence of Qijian Mountain Villa once again.

According to past customs, after the King of Alchemy is determined, the heads of all major sects will personally come to pay respects and express their congratulations.

As always, right after Ye Bufan returned, the headmaster of Tianshengmen, Zu Taibai, was the first to enter.

This is an elderly man with white hair. He looks kind and speaks politely.

After a round of polite formalities, he didn't say much else and turned to leave.

The second to enter was a middle-aged beautiful woman, the head of the Huanjian Sect, Ji FengHua.

Yuan Yao Xianzi originated from Huanjian Sect. Loving the house, one loves its inhabitants as well. Ye Bufan has a great fondness for this sect.

"Congratulations to King Ye Dan, for having such profound alchemy skills at such a young age. It's truly admirable..."

The wind from the monsoon season of Huafei is very peaceful. He doesn't have the arrogance of a Fifth Rank Saint Emperor, nor does he have the aloofness of a sect master. When he speaks, it feels like a warm spring breeze.

"The Sect Master is too kind. I hold the Phantom Sword Sect in the highest regard..."

Ye Bufan went through some polite exchanges, expressing his fondness for the Huanjian Sect. Finally, he said, "The person I've always admired most in my life is the former Five Great Saint Emperors. I heard that Fairy Yuan Yao is a powerful figure from the Huanjian Sect."

Ji Fenghua was taken aback, obviously the other party's reaction was somewhat beyond her expectations.

If someone becomes the new King of Dan at a young age, that person has great potential for the future and limitless prospects. Naturally, they wouldn't refuse the other party's advances.

"Ye Danwang said, 'The Yuan Yao Immortal Emperor is my master's ancestor.'"

"I see. That is truly admirable!"

Ye Bufan said again, "Before this, Ye had heard many rumors about Fairy Yuanyao, but I didn't know if they were true or false. Could Sect Master enlighten me"

"This…"

As a fifth-rank Holy Emperor and the head of the Huanjian Sect, Ji Fenghua is naturally not an ordinary person. However, he was now completely baffled by Ye Bufan's actions.

After she succeeded as the Sect Master, she had met several Dan Kings, but this was the first time someone was relentlessly questioning a former ancient powerhouse.

However, since the other person had already spoken, she couldn't refuse. So, she briefly and concisely explained what she knew.

Ye Bufan listened very attentively. He naturally had his own purpose. If he directly asked Yuan Yao Xianzi about her final resting place, he was afraid it would immediately arouse suspicion from the other party.

So, let's look at it from a different angle to see if we can glean any useful information that could help us speculate on where Yuan Yao Xianzi's physical body is hidden.

After chatting for a while, Ji FengHua always felt something was amiss, but she couldn't pinpoint the problem. She bid farewell and left.

Ye Bufan firmly memorized the information he had just obtained, knowing that it might not be immediately useful but could prove helpful for future deductions.

The third visitor was Ni Sàkong, the headmaster of Lingxiao Sect. This old geezer looked like a businessman, with a fake smile plastered on his face, resembling a smiling tiger.

Ye Bufan, however, did not dare to be careless in the slightest. The more cunning a person was, the more carefully he had to deal with them.

After all, the other party is a fifth-rank Saint Emperor. Moreover, even among the Five Great Sects, Lingxiao Sect is one of the most powerful. How could the controller be simple

"Congratulations, Prince Ye Dan!"

Ni Sa Kong behaved extremely intimately, as if there were no grudges in her heart.

"Having heard that King Ye is renowned for his medical skills, I was not expecting such profound knowledge of alchemy. It truly impresses this old man!"

Ye Bufan smiled politely: "Master, you are too kind."

"Such talent! Truly talented! It's a pity that our Lingxiao Sect doesn't have someone like Ye Danwang."

"Speaking of this, Ni Sa Kong sighed, "It's like the saying goes, 'When it rains, it pours.' The sect is already facing a shortage of talented disciples, and now something else has happened."

First, a late-stage Immortal Emperor named Shi Kai died. Then, two peak-level Immortal Emperors, Shi Tu and Gong Shu Kan, also died one after another.

It's such a pity, these people were all the core disciples of the sect. I don't know how they suddenly fell.

Ye Bufan's pupils constricted, the other party was clearly hinting at something.

He didn't speak, wanting to see what the other person meant.

"Ye Danwang, don't think too much about it. People talk more when they get older. I lost control of my emotions for a moment and made you laugh at me!"

Ni Sasha smiled very kindly, "Actually, my three disciples aren't very capable. The three of them tied together wouldn't even be as good as Ye Danwang."

"If Lord Dan Wang is willing to join the Lingxiao Sect, or even just cooperate with our sect, it would be enough to make up for the loss of my three disciples!"

Ye Bufan raised an eyebrow. Although the other party spoke somewhat cryptically, the meaning behind their words was still discernible.

This is about making a deal. The unspoken implication is that if they join the Lingxiao Sect, what happened before will be forgotten.

He smiled faintly: “Sect Master, what if I say no”

Ni Sasa let out a hearty laugh. "Now that you're the Dan King, you can do whatever you want, no one can stop you."

But my Lingxiao Sect's talent has withered, and we have lost three core disciples. We definitely need to come up with a way, we can't just let this go.

"That's how it is."

Ye Bufan chuckled, "Sect Master, this is our first meeting, so you probably don't know me very well. "

There's an old song from our hometown that sings very well, with a line like this: "If friends come, there is good wine; if wolves and jackals come, there are shotguns."

I'm not the type to start trouble, but I won't back down if it comes to me.

After he finished speaking, Ni Sa Kong laughed again. His eyes narrowed into a thin slit, but the coldness radiating from them couldn't be concealed.

"What Ye Danwang said is excellent, hearing your words is like reading ten years' worth of books. I hope we can have the opportunity to chat together again in the future."

The smile vanished from his face instantly, and he turned to walk out the door.eart."Little girl, since you've come to my Hong Huang clan, don't even think about running away. From now on, you'll be the mistress of my young city!"The young man's face was contorted in a grimace,...
