Chapter 386 Zhuang Jingwen Reappears
Yes, Xiong Yibing had followed Ye Xunhuan for over twenty years and served as his super enforcer.
Whenever trouble arose, it was Xiong Yibing who Ye Xunhuan sent to handle it. Xiong Yibing was utterly loyal, and every problem Ye Xunhuan faced seemed to dissolve after Xiong Yibing intervened.
At this moment, learning that Xiong Yibing had died at the hands of Ye Fan, Ye Xunhuan couldn't have been more shocked.
"Young Master, the intelligence network couldn't have made a mistake! Not only is Xiong Yibing dead in battle, but Chen Longpeng, the number one powerhouse of the East Sea, also perished. In other words, they both died one after the other at the hands of Ye Fan; it's just that our roots in the Central Plains aren't deep enough for us to find out more information for the time being!" Pang Song said gravely.
Ye Xunhuan's expression stiffened, "What? Chen Longpeng, the top fighter of the East Sea, is also dead? You should know, even if Chen Longpeng teamed up with Xiong Yibing, they would be formidable enough to sweep through all the unbeatable opponents within the Martial King realm. If Ye Fan managed to slay both of them, could it be that Ye Fan is a Martial Emperor?"
It has to be said, in the Martial Arts World, above a Martial King is a Martial Emperor, also known as a Kung Fu Emperor.
Once an Ancient Martial Artist entered the Martial Emperor Realm, they became akin to ancient emperors—extremely powerful, virtually holding the power over life and death. If a Martial Emperor took a dislike to someone, they wouldn't need to concern themselves with much, they could simply snuff out a life with a flick of their fingers.
However, Martial Emperors are exceedingly rare. Even within the country, they're considered extraordinary existences.
The Ye family from the Imperial Capital is a super top-tier family in the country. In Ye Xunhuan's memory, even in the Ye family, there wouldn't be more than three experts of Martial Emperor level. Moreover, these three are all elders of the Ye family, the foundation upon which the family stood. Without these three safeguarding the Ye family in recent years, the family could very well have been annihilated by rival forces.
"As of now, that's still unclear," Pang Song said soberly.
"Unclear? You can't even figure this out? Are you an imbecile?"
Ye Xunhuan burst into an angry tirade. In his eyes, if Ye Fan grew strong, he would certainly pose a fatal threat to him.
What terrified him most was that at such a young age, Ye Fan could eliminate two Martial Kings. The thought of such talent horrified Ye Xunhuan.
He knew all too well how difficult it was to become an Ancient Martial Artist.
As the Young Master of the Ye family, Ye Xunhuan was forced to learn martial arts from an early age. Currently, Ye Xunhuan's strength was at the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm, and even that was rather inflated. His combat power largely came from taking a cocktail of medicines.
Head bowed, not daring to breathe too heavily, Pang Song said, "Please, Young Master, calm your anger. I will dispatch someone to investigate right away!"
"Investigate! I want you to investigate thoroughly—I refuse to believe that the dog I kicked out all those years ago could turn the skies upside down!" Ye Xunhuan spat venomously.
Initially, he hadn't taken Ye Fan seriously at all, but now knowing that Ye Fan had slain two Martial Kings, Ye Xunhuan couldn't help but panic.
If Ye Fan wasn't eliminated, he knew he'd have sleepless nights.
...
Time ticked by, and night gradually enshrouded the land within the Central Plains.
"Phew!"
It wasn't until nine o'clock at night that Ye Fan finally let out a sigh of relief as he opened his eyes, and his originally pale complexion showed signs of improvement.
He clenched his fists and murmured to himself, "With my current strength, I can barely protect myself. If I encounter any special circumstances, I'm definitely not equipped to cope! Especially if someone targets Ruo Xue and Ling'er, I will be extremely disadvantaged. Therefore, recovering my strength is of the utmost urgency!"
The injuries Ye Fan sustained in that battle six years ago were far too severe.
Since regaining his memory, despite his efforts, Ye Fan had only barely managed to recover to ten percent of his peak combat power.
Ye Fan was aware that, to the average person, being a Martial King might seem overwhelmingly formidable, but in this world, there are too many ancient sects, where Martial Kings are merely errand-runners.@@novelbin@@
In Ye Fan's memory, within the Medicine God Pavilion, even the lowest pageboy would possess the power of at least a Martial King.
"It looks like I need to take a trip soon. I have to find some medicinal herbs to heal my internal injuries!" Ye Fan said quietly to himself.
Having made up his mind, Ye Fan looked out the window and saw that darkness had already fallen outside.
"Not good!"
Upon seeing the night had come, Ye Fan immediately took out his phone, and saw dozens of missed calls.
A quick glance showed that these missed calls were from people like Xiang Tianba and Tang Renjie, but most were from Su Ruoxue.
Knewing that today's battle at Yanming Lake must have created a huge stir in the Central Plains, Xiang Tianba and the others had likely called to inquire about his condition.
Not wanting to worry Su Ruoxue, Ye Fan promptly returned her call, and in less than three seconds, the call was connected.
"Ye Fan, are you all right?" Su Ruoxue asked anxiously.
Hearing Su Ruoxue's voice filled with concern, Ye Fan felt a warmth inside and said, "Ruoxue, I'm fine!"
"Where did you go? I tried to contact you all day and you didn't answer. Ling'er and I were very worried about you!" Su Ruoxue said, her voice filled with worry.
Ye Fan replied with a soft smile, "I ran into a bit of trouble, but it's all been resolved now."
"Really, it's all resolved?" Su Ruoxue became even more worried upon hearing this.
She knew about Ye Fan's strength, and whatever could make Ye Fan unreachable for a day was certainly no trivial matter.
However, now that she was able to get in touch with Ye Fan, Su Ruoxue felt a huge relief. She knew that if Ye Fan took the initiative to contact her, his troubles were mostly likely resolved.
Ye Fan nodded and said, "Yes, it's all resolved! By the way, Ruoxue, I'm a bit hungry. Could you make me a bowl of noodles? I'll be home right now!"
"Okay, I'll make the noodles right now. Hurry back, Ling'er and I miss you!" Su Ruoxue said tenderly.
"Rest assured, I'm fine, I'll be back right now!"
Ye Fan knew that Su Ruoxue and her daughter must have been deeply worried about him. After ending the call, he immediately got up, ready to quickly return to the Century Sky City Villa Complex.
Squeak!
Just as Ye Fan was opening the door, he saw Xu Ruoxuan coming towards the guest room with a smiling face.
Seeing that Ye Fan was up, Xu Ruoxuan said with a smile, "Mr. Ye seems to have recovered quite well; you look much healthier!"
"Thank you so much for taking me in, Miss Xu!" Ye Fan gratefully said.
He understood that if it weren't for Xu Ruoxuan's hospitality, after the battle by Yanming Lake today, he might have faced some unpredictable troubles!
Sensing that Ye Fan was preparing to leave, Xu Ruoxuan asked curiously, "Mr. Ye, do you have an urgent matter that requires you to leave? If it's not urgent, why not sit down and join us for a simple family meal?"
Now, Xu Ruoxuan was filled with curiosity about Ye Fan.
The dark ring Ye Fan had given her once had miraculously made the world-class Chris Family choose to cooperate with the Xu Family.
That morning, Ye Fan had accepted a challenge by the East Sea's top expert, Chen Longpeng, on the shores of Yanming Lake.
In the end, not only did Ye Fan slay Chen Longpeng, but he also eliminated another Martial Arts King, Xiong Yibing, which truly shocked Xu Ruoxuan.
Moreover, she could tell that during the battle at Yanming Lake, Ye Fan had not put forth his full strength; he had held something back.
In Xu Ruoxuan's mind, anyone who could become a Martial King by the age of thirty was already extraordinarily talented. However, Ye Fan was not yet thirty and already possessed the strength to overwhelm Martial Kings. This was simply astonishing. To Xu Ruoxuan, Ye Fan was as enigmatic as a riddle, utterly inscrutable.
"No need for now, Ruoxue is waiting for me at home, I need to go back. Otherwise, she and her daughter will surely worry about me!" Ye Fan said.
Upon hearing this, Xu Ruoxuan showed a look of regret and said, "Alright then! I won't keep you tonight, Mr. Ye."
"Thank you, Miss Xu. When I have time in the future, I will definitely treat Miss Xu to a meal!"
After a brief greeting to Xu Ruoxuan, Ye Fan did not hesitate any longer and left the Central Plains Xu Family.
"Master, let's go, to Century Sky City!"
Once out of the Xu Family's main gate, Ye Fan got into a taxi.
"You got it!"
When the taxi driver heard that Ye Fan wanted to go to Century Sky City, he cheerfully responded.
The taxi driver drove quickly, passing through an old street in the Central Plains in less than ten minutes.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, a beautiful figure appeared within Ye Fan's field of vision, and he abruptly yelled out.
Because the beautiful figure was none other than Zhuang Jingwen, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
What do you think?
