After bidding farewell to Grandpa and Fourth Uncle, Ye Feng left the secret chamber with his father, Ye Honglin, and headed straight home. Throughout the journey, neither of them spoke. After a moment of hesitation, Ye Feng finally broke the silence.
“Dad, what exactly happened ten years ago? Can't you tell me now? Where did Mom go?”
Ye Honglin, with a commanding presence, suddenly stopped in his tracks and said in a low voice, “Feng Er, I know you have grown up and your cultivation has surpassed mine, but it's best if you don't inquire about your mother.”
“Why?” Ye Feng replied angrily. “Is it that with my current strength, I still can't know about that incident from ten years ago?”
“Feng Er!” Ye Honglin's shoulders trembled slightly, as if he was struggling to contain something. “Even if you break through to the Gangwu Realm, I still cannot tell you about this matter!”
Ye Feng felt a wave of confusion wash over him. He desperately wanted to know what had happened to his father ten years ago. However, the elders of the Ye Family who had some knowledge of the matter were all very cautious about it. Even Grandpa Ye Zhentian merely shook his head and sighed, unwilling to say more.
“Gangwu Realm—if I reach the Gangwu Realm, will Dad still refuse to explain the ins and outs of this matter?” Ye Feng clenched his fists, his expression complex.
Just as they fell into silence, a voice suddenly echoed in Ye Feng's mind.
“Kid, what happened to your father is likely not simple. Don't blame him; he is doing this for your own good. Given your current situation, there are some people and forces that you cannot afford to provoke!”
The voice was familiar; it came from Xuan Lao, who had remained silent within Ye Feng's ring.
Ye Feng was taken aback. Ever since leaving the Silver Moon Secret Realm, Xuan Lao seemed to have vanished completely. Even during critical moments of life and death, he had not appeared. He hadn't expected Xuan Lao to speak again due to his conversation with his father.
Although Xuan Lao hadn't helped him in urgent situations, Ye Feng didn't think much of it; after all, Xuan Lao had only promised to assist him in cultivation and had no obligation to save him.
“Xuan Lao!” Ye Feng silently asked in his heart. “You must know something. Could you please share a bit? I would be very grateful!”
“From what I can gather regarding your father's situation, Old Man can guess a little bit. But just as your father said, it's better for you not to know about this for now. If you don't want the Ye Family to face any more formidable opponents because of this matter, I suggest you forget about it for the time being!” Xuan Lao said solemnly.
“It could implicate the Ye Family!” Ye Feng's heart stirred. If pursuing this matter led to the Ye Family facing powerful adversaries again, he would become an eternal sinner in their eyes.
“In that case, I won't inquire further into this matter for now. However, my father's current health is concerning. According to Grandpa, Dad's cultivation had already broken through to the Peak of the Ninth Level of Yuan Martial Realm ten years ago. Since that incident occurred, his cultivation has been unstable and has even regressed to the Sixth Level of Yuan Wu Realm!” After saying this silently in his heart, Ye Feng felt even more despondent.
Xuan Lao pondered for a moment, seemingly indecisive. "Since you have such filial piety, Old Man can help your father a bit."
"Really? Then I am truly grateful to Xuan Lao!" Ye Feng knew that this old man who had lived for ten thousand years must have some solution. Seeing that Xuan Lao seemed to agree, his mood instantly brightened, and he repeatedly expressed his thanks in his heart.
"No need for thanks, but Old Man will not help you for nothing. From now on, you must never slack off in your cultivation; otherwise, Old Man can retract the help at any time!" Xuan Lao said coldly.
"Of course, there’s no need for you to remind me, Xuan Lao. I, Ye Feng, will practice diligently day and night to improve my cultivation as soon as possible and uncover the mystery of my mother's disappearance!" Ye Feng resolutely responded in his heart.
Following Xuan Lao's instructions, Ye Feng bid farewell to his father Ye Honglin and returned to his room alone.
Ye Honglin watched Ye Feng's departing figure with a somewhat troubled expression and instinctively reached for his waist.
"Grandpa said he won't provide you with any more alcohol from now on!" A voice filled with anger came from the distance—Ye Chen.
"Brat, when did it become your place to manage your father?" Ye Honglin felt a warmth in his heart and shouted hoarsely as he quickly walked over.
…………
According to Xuan Lao's request, Ye Feng prepared paper and pen and was writing something at the desk.
"Old Man has carefully observed the flow of Vital Energy in your father. If I'm not mistaken, it should have been forcibly sealed by someone!" As soon as Xuan Lao spoke, his first words shook Ye Feng's spirit.
"Sealing cultivation? There’s actually such a miraculous skill? Who could do this?" Ye Feng instinctively asked.
"Hmph, true experts possess means that you little brat cannot comprehend. In any case, the seal on your father is not too complicated. Old Man just happens to have a Supreme Technique that can resolve this seal!" Xuan Lao snorted lightly and said disdainfully.
"Xuan Lao truly lives up to his reputation; he indeed has a solution. I admire you!" Ye Feng seized the opportunity to flatter him.
"Less nonsense!" Although he held a noble status, it had been ten thousand years since he had heard such compliments. A hint of pride arose in Xuan Lao's heart, but he still maintained a cold tone. "Sealing Vital Energy is nothing special; as long as one's cultivation is above a certain realm, many can achieve it. However, sealing Vital Energy to a certain extent so that the sealed person can occasionally exert their full strength is not something just anyone can do. If Old Man hadn't had the fortune to witness this sealing method back in the day, I would not have any confidence in breaking such a seal!"
"The Unsealing Method created by the Old Man was specifically designed to target this type of seal. As long as your father practices this Supreme Technique, he will be able to easily break the seal within his body in less than three months. However, you cannot disclose the Old Man's whereabouts, and how do you plan to explain the origins of this Supreme Technique?"
Ye Feng thought for a moment and quickly found a solution. "Senior Xuan Lao, it's simple. When the time comes, I just need to say that I obtained this Supreme Technique from the Dragon Tiger Sect. My father would not go all the way to the Dragon Tiger Sect to inquire about the origins of the Supreme Technique, especially since the Dragon Tiger Sect has regulations that prohibit the external transmission of any Sect's Supreme Techniques. Otherwise, disciples who leak such techniques will face severe punishment!"
Xuan Lao was extremely satisfied with Ye Feng's answer and did not delay any further. He directly revealed the specific cultivation method of the Supreme Technique.
"This Supreme Technique is called 'Breaking the Cycle Technique.' To break through and establish anew, you must guide Vital Energy into the Meridian..."
Upon hearing that Xuan Lao finally began to impart the incantation, Ye Feng, who had been waiting eagerly for half a day, felt his heart tighten and hurriedly recorded every word that Xuan Lao said without missing a single detail.
Half an hour later, Ye Feng had completely written down 'Breaking the Cycle Technique.' After thanking Xuan Lao repeatedly, he could hardly wait to leave the bedroom.
As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by Ye Chen, who had already prepared dinner and was coming to call Ye Feng to eat together.
The family reunited once again, and this time it was much more harmonious than before. Ye Honglin praised both brothers for their cultivation levels, and after dinner, Ye Feng took out the 'Breaking the Cycle Technique' passed down from Xuan Lao.
Although Ye Honglin was somewhat skeptical about the effectiveness of 'Breaking the Cycle Technique,' it was given to him by his son who risked violating sect rules. Moreover, after exhausting all methods over the past ten years without being able to fully recover his cultivation level, he accepted this technique with a mindset of trying anything as a last resort.
After resolving his father's cultivation issue, Ye Feng felt great and went back to enjoy a rare good night's sleep.
The next morning, just as dawn broke, someone burst into Ye Feng's bedroom.
Ye Feng's eyes shot open, and he had already gripped the Blood Pattern Needle hidden in his sleeve. Seeing that it was none other than his father Ye Honglin, he relaxed and put away the Blood Pattern Needle.
"Feng Er, is this 'Breaking the Cycle Technique' really something you brought back from the Dragon Tiger Sect?" Ye Honglin exclaimed excitedly as he rushed to Ye Feng's bedside with a beaming face.
"Father, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this Supreme Technique?" Ye Feng asked in surprise as his expression changed.
"No, there’s nothing wrong with the Supreme Technique! Ever since I practiced your Supreme Technique last night, my Vital Energy can flow normally within my body now. Although my Dantian is still blocked by a mysterious force preventing Vital Energy from gathering there, it is much stronger than before!" Ye Honglin's eyes sparkled with excitement as he spoke.
Hearing his father say this, Ye Feng felt secretly pleased. He did not expect that the Supreme Technique passed down to him by Xuan Lao would have such quick results.
"Father, if it works, then just focus on your training. Are you trying to make sure everyone knows I passed the Supreme Technique of the Dragon Tiger Sect to you?" Ye Feng pretended to complain with a hint of displeasure.
"That's right, that's right. It's my oversight. I will definitely keep this matter regarding the Supreme Technique a secret!" Ye Honglin paused for a moment and then suddenly slapped his forehead as he spoke.
"At this time, we should be heading to the Heritage Site, right?" Ye Feng glanced out the window and suddenly raised his eyebrows.
"Yes!" Ye Honglin finally regained his composure, looking somewhat embarrassed. Today was the day Ye Feng was receiving the inheritance, a significant event for the family. In his excitement, he almost forgot about it.
"It's still early. I prepared some breakfast. After our family has eaten together, we can head to the Head of the Family Manor!" Ye Honglin said with a smile on his face. The signs of loosening in his internal seal had naturally improved his mood.
"Father actually prepared breakfast for us?" Ye Feng looked at him oddly but still got up to wash up.
"You take your time; I'll go wake Chen Er. We can't let that kid slack off and miss your big day." After saying this, Ye Honglin excitedly pushed the door open and left.
Ye Feng watched his father, who seemed revitalized, feeling warm inside. As long as his father could fully recover, he would be content.
"It seems Xuan Lao has noticed something and changed his attitude towards me. If it were before, he would have ignored my father's matter entirely. However, he probably didn't expect that I would have the Innate Spirit Summoning Technique as such a Wasteful Young Master!"
