Upon returning from the courtyard of Ancestor Ye, Ye Wenhui wore a serious expression and walked briskly, as if burdened by a heavy load. He did not pause for a moment and headed straight to the conference hall to summon the elders.
The elders gathered, filled with confusion and exchanging glances, unsure why the family head had summoned them so urgently. One elder, unable to contain his impatience, asked, "Won't we know once we get there?"
Following Ye Wenhui into the conference hall, the elders noticed his demeanor had grown even more serious. He instructed the Grand Elder and the others to use their spiritual power to seal the room, preventing any leakage of their conversation. Although the two elders were puzzled, they dared not ask further questions upon seeing the family head's solemnity. They promptly activated their spiritual energy, creating an impenetrable barrier around the hall.
Once everything was prepared, Ye Wenhui slowly began to speak: "Just now, I returned from Ancestor Ye." As soon as these words left his mouth, silence fell over the conference hall. All the elders held their breath, waiting for what would come next.
One elder could no longer suppress his curiosity and cautiously asked, "Did Ancestor Ye give any instructions?" Ye Wenhui waved his hand lightly, his voice tinged with barely concealed excitement: "Ancestor Ye has given me two Heavenly Rank Cultivation Methods!"
At this declaration, the conference hall erupted in an uproar. The elders' eyes lit up with intensity as they fixed their gazes on Ye Wenhui, as if trying to see through him. The Grand Elder, Ye Nantian, could hardly believe it and pressed on: "Family Head, what did you say? Heavenly Rank Cultivation Methods? I must have misheard!"
Ye Wenhui nodded earnestly, his tone firm: "That's right. Ancestor Ye entrusted me with two Heavenly Rank Cultivation Methods and mental techniques to help us enhance our family's strength. Surely you don't want to hide behind Ancestor Ye whenever a strong enemy appears?"
Hearing this, the elders nodded in agreement, determination shining in their eyes. They understood that this was an exceptional opportunity for their family's rise and a chance for them to enhance their own power.
Under Ye Wenhui's leadership, they began discussing how to cultivate these two Heavenly Rank Cultivation Methods and which talented clan members to select.
In stark contrast to the joyous atmosphere at the Sun Family estate, a heavy and profound air lingered in another part of the estate. Sun Wenbin and Zhang Tianyi sat facing each other, both showing signs of worry and contemplation. After a long silence, Zhang Tianyi finally spoke up, his voice tinged with resignation: "Now that the Wang family has been destroyed and Wan Jian Sect's Celestial Realm elder died without even seeing Ye Xingchen... This Ye Xingchen is truly hiding deep."
Sun Wenbin frowned deeply at this remark, concern evident in his expression: "What should our families do now?" Zhang Tianyi sighed heavily, his tone resolute: "Is there really any choice left? Ye Xingchen's strength is at least above Celestial Being level eight."
"I heard that Feng Wuyah personally went but returned disappointed. It seems that Ye Xingchen doesn't even give face to Tianfeng County King; he must have some unknown trump card. If we don't submit, we will only face death; if we do submit, perhaps when Ancestor Ye rises, we can still have a share of the benefits."
Sun Wenbin remained silent for a moment as he weighed the pros and cons before finally nodding: "What you say makes sense. Tomorrow, we will personally visit Ye Xingchen and test that old fellow's intentions. Regardless of the outcome, it's better than waiting idly for death."
The next day, as dawn broke, Ye Xingchen sat upright in meditation, immersed in practicing Zao Jue. This technique was extraordinarily profound; every move and stroke contained the principles of heaven and earth that were elusive and hard to grasp.
Ye Xingchen's understanding of Zao Jue had made remarkable progress. As spiritual energy surged within him like a river breaking through its dam, it became unstoppable. The barriers of Feng Hou Realm crumbled under his powerful spiritual force as if they were made of paper.
Suddenly opening his eyes and exhaling a breath of turbid air, he couldn't hide the joy on his face.
Finally, he had broken through Duke level! He murmured to himself with excitement and pride. For him now, the path of cultivation was like water flowing smoothly.
Just as he was about to sign with System and continue exploring more secrets of cultivation, hurried footsteps echoed from outside accompanied by a respectful voice from a servant: "Ancestor Ye! Sun Family Ancestor and Zhang Family Ancestor are here to see you."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xingchen frowned slightly; he instantly understood. Those forces must have learned about his slaying of Wan Jian Sect Elder and were anxious to come investigate his true strength.
He smiled lightly; a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. Very well then; let these old fellows see just how powerful he truly was.
"Let them in," Ye Xingchen said calmly but with an undeniable authority in his tone. The servant outside complied promptly and soon after saw Sun Wenbin and Zhang Tianyi walking along a dim path toward Ye Xingchen's courtyard. Their expressions were tense as they approached cautiously, clearly feeling uneasy themselves.
