With that, the Azure Armored Ancestor let out a cold snort and transformed into a streak of blue light, departing swiftly.
Shentu's gaze fell upon Ye Fan, seemingly losing patience.
A terrifying aura pressed down on him, locking Ye Fan in place.
Then, stepping forward, Shentu prepared to take Ye Fan back to the Heavenly Heart Sect.
Under the pressure of Shentu's aura, Ye Fan felt as if a massive mountain was weighing down on him.
It was unbearably heavy.
Seeing this, the Entropy Celestial Maiden stepped forward and said, "Senior Shentu, our Sect Master is on her way."
"Are you threatening me?" Shentu's gaze turned icy as he looked at Entropy Sky.
"No, I just wanted to remind you, Senior," Entropy Sky replied. However, her intention was indeed to intimidate Shentu and keep Ye Fan safe.
"Then step aside," Shentu said indifferently.
Entropy Celestial Eye glanced at Shentu, gritting her teeth. Though reluctant, she had no choice but to move aside.
Shentu was so powerful that even someone as renowned as the Azure Armored Ancestor was no match for him.
Although she had already entered the Ascension Stage, facing Shentu, she probably wouldn't be able to withstand even a single finger from him!
"Saintess!"
Colorful Garb and Red Snow stood beside Entropy Sky, both wearing expressions of unwillingness.
The Entropy Celestial Maiden shook her head at the two of them.
With a hint of regret, she said to Ye Fan, "Little brother, I truly apologize. Even though I want to save you, I am powerless."
As she spoke, Entropy Sky's voice also entered Ye Fan's ears.
"Don't worry. I've already sent a message to our leader. Even if you are taken to the Heavenly Heart Sect by Shentu, I believe the leader will arrive quickly."
Ye Fan nodded lightly and smiled, saying, "Sister has already done her best. It wouldn't hurt for me to visit the Heavenly Heart Sect for a while."
He knew that facing a master like Shentu, even if he refused to leave, it would likely be futile.
So he said, "I can go with you, but before we leave, I have one last thing to do."
Shentu spoke forcefully and domineeringly, "You have no right to negotiate with me."
He didn't want to waste even a minute more.
"No, I do," Ye Fan replied sharply. "If not, I'd rather die than let you know where the Ascension Token is."
"You want to commit suicide in front of me?" Shentu shook his head as he stepped closer to Ye Fan.
How could one commit suicide under his oppressive aura and constraints?
Without his permission, it would be difficult for Ye Fan to even move!
Ye Fan nodded and said, "I cannot deny that you are indeed powerful. However..."
He turned to Entropy Sky and asked, "Saint Sister, would you be willing to buy me a moment of time?"
"If something were to happen to me, someone will surely inform you of the location of the Ascension Token."
Hearing Ye Fan's words, Entropy Sky cast a deep glance at him.
She certainly guessed that Ye Fan did not truly intend to commit suicide.
He said that only to threaten Shentu.
Thus, Entropy Sky nodded decisively and said, "Although I am not a match for Senior Shentu, I can still buy you a moment to do something."
Upon hearing this, Shentu's expression darkened instantly.
He couldn't help but shoot a fierce glare at Entropy Sky.
Then he turned his gaze back to Ye Fan and coldly asked, "Speak. What do you want to do? How much time do you need?"
Ye Fan smiled at this and replied, "Don't worry, it won't take long—just a moment."
"Also, could you retract the pressure you're exerting? Are you afraid I might run away?"
As soon as Ye Fan's voice fell, the pressure surrounding him vanished instantly.
It was clear that Shentu had withdrawn his imposing aura.
Without hesitation, Ye Fan stepped forward and directly appeared within the Ye Family.
Shentu remained suspended high in the air, looking down below.
Under his watchful gaze, no matter where Ye Fan wanted to go, he could not escape Shentu's grasp.
"Fan..."
When Ye Fan returned, Ye Qiancheng and the others rushed forward, all appearing somewhat desperate.
"Young Master, what exactly is the Ascension Token? If they want it, why don't you just give it to them?" Ye Qingling approached, her heart filled with concern for Ye Fan's safety as she spoke.
"Oh, Sister Qingling, not bad! You've actually reached the late stage of Golden Core," Ye Fan remarked, his gaze landing on Ye Qingling, immediately noticing her current cultivation level.
It must be due to those two Life Creation Pills.
Ye Qingling nodded gravely and said, "Young Master, you still haven't answered my question!"
Ye Fan shook his head helplessly and smiled wryly. "To be honest, I don't even know what that thing is. How can I give it to them?"
"You don't know?"
Ye Qingling was taken aback.
Ye Qiancheng spoke with a hint of despair in his voice. "Fan, did Ancestor take something from them, which has caused such a huge problem?"
Upon hearing this, Ye Fan chose not to address it.
Calmly, he said, "Regardless of the reason, I'll keep it brief."
"First, I'll go with him to the Heavenly Heart Sect. You all need not worry; I will find a way to return safely."
"Second, during the time I'm away, you should stay within the family's Great Formation as much as possible." Ye Fan emphasized seriously, "Father, do you remember that?"
Ye Qiancheng understood that this was Ye Fan's concern for their safety.
He nodded, but with a hint of worry said, "But Fan, you..."
"Father, you don't need to worry." Ye Fan interrupted Ye Qiancheng, speaking softly, "I have already contacted my master. He will return soon to rescue me."
"Your master is coming back to save you? Really...?" Upon hearing about Ye Fan's immortal master, Ye Qiancheng and the others visibly relaxed.
Ye Fan nodded and said, "Alright, remember what I said. Let's leave it at that for now!"
With that, Ye Fan soared into the air without any hesitation, heading straight for the Li Family.
Shentu furrowed his brow slightly but did not stop him; instead, he took a step forward and followed.
Above the Li Family.
When they saw Ye Fan's figure suddenly appear, Li Wuji and Li Yuan were instantly taken aback.
"What do you want?" Li Wuji felt an ominous premonition rising within him, his voice trembling slightly.
Ye Fan's expression was icy as his gaze swept fiercely over Li Wuji.
There was no response—silent and still.
Yet in this silence, Ye Fan extended his hand and suddenly struck down with a powerful palm.
"Boom!!!"
This strike unleashed a thunderous force, creating an incredibly violent energy storm.
The vast Li Family Mansion was instantly reduced to ashes beneath a single palm.
Even Li Wuji and his son Li Yuan were engulfed in despair, their expressions reflecting utter hopelessness.
They were directly crushed to death, turning into dust.
A single strike obliterated an entire family.
Ye Fan's blow sent waves of deep fear rippling through the eyes of those at Heavenly River Mansion.
This was precisely the effect Ye Fan desired.
A silent intimidation.
"Can we leave now?" Shentu asked coldly, his expression devoid of emotion as he looked at Ye Fan.
"Of course," Ye Fan replied with a grin.
Shentu said no more. A powerful energy surged from him, enveloping Ye Fan in an instant.
Then, with a flash of sword light, Ye Fan shot off at incredible speed toward the direction of Heavenly Heart Sect.
