Chapter 812 - 809: Returning in Defeat

At this moment, the Sky Demon Emperor was shocked. He hadn’t expected, after a year, that Ye Fan would become an Ancestor Realm. He had a reason for coming after a year.

He intended to kill Ye Fan in front of the Purple Cloud Mansion, establishing the status of the Demonic Path.

He knew that saying anything now was too late because Ye Fan had already achieved Ancestor Realm. Upon reaching the Ancestor Realm, he realized killing Ye Fan was incredibly difficult.

Because Ye Fan’s aura was not much weaker than his own, perhaps if he gave his all, sacrificing half his life, he could kill Ye Fan.

However, a cleverly scheming Feng Lian was watching from the side. Even if he won a tragic victory and killed Ye Fan, Feng Lian would surely kill him.

The Void Demonic Path was bound to decline.

He and Feng Lian were equals as strong men, but with half a life, he couldn’t escape Feng Lian’s assassination.

So at this moment, the Sky Demon Emperor felt a bit of retreat. He was not afraid of death, but he had too many concerns.

Therefore, at this time, he wanted to withdraw, but before withdrawing, he must regain some face. Otherwise, today’s intimidation would have no effect at all.

He had already thought of a way to regain face, which was to injure Ye Fan.

"So you’ve achieved Ancestor Realm. But unfortunately, what difference does achieving Ancestor Realm make? It’s not like I haven’t slain Ancestor Realms before!"

Sky Demon Emperor said disdainfully.

Ye Fan replied coldly: "Is that so? Bragging is indeed a bad habit!"

At this time, the Sky Demon Emperor suddenly made his move. He was also an Ancestor Realm. The power of Ancestor Realm is terrifying, and when his Ancestor Realm Energy was unleashed, everyone felt an absolute oppressive force.

In the face of this pressure, Ye Fan remained as calm as the wind.

At that moment, Sky Demon Emperor shouted: "Heavenly Demon Technique!"

When the Heavenly Demon Technique was initiated, it seemed like the world was filled only with demons, fostering the prosperity of the Demonic Path.

The huge Demon Cave reappeared, seemingly ready to draw all living beings inside.

"Dragon Emperor’s Fist!"

Ye Fan shouted.

A massive Golden Dragon launched from his hand, vast and boundless, charging into the Demon Cave, which promptly shattered.

Sky Demon Emperor launched an attack, rushing directly to Ye Fan’s front, intending to severely injure Ye Fan with a single move, making him understand the horror of despair.

Unfortunately, Ye Fan was prepared. He unleashed the blood of the Heaven-defying Ones, a drop of fresh blood shooting towards the Sky Demon Emperor, piercing his body.

Ye Fan was also struck by his attack, then both flew away from each other.

Cheers erupted around. They all saw the scene in the sky. Ye Fan could actually hold his own against the Sky Demon Emperor. Even Feng Lian was shocked.

Feng Lian was astonished by Ye Fan’s might. He and the Sky Demon Emperor broke through to Ancestor Realm over ten thousand years ago, but both had been concealing it all along.

However, Ye Fan had just begun to break through, and even though it wasn’t long, it’s incomparable to their ten thousand years of accumulation.

Still, his combat power was terrifyingly strong, a First Grade Ancestor Realm competing against Second Grade Ancestor Realm with no apparent weakness—consistently powerful and overbearing. He fully believed...

If the Sky Demon Emperor continued to fight Ye Fan, it remained uncertain who would ultimately prevail. The previous belief that Sky Demon Emperor could kill Ye Fan...

At the cost of half his life was completely unfounded.

At this time, the Sky Demon Emperor gritted his teeth and said: "Good, very good. For the first time in tens of thousands of years, I have been injured!"

He did not deny that he was injured.

"You’re not weak either!"

Ye Fan said calmly.

Watching him, Ye Fan asked the Sky Demon Emperor: "Do you still want to fight?"

The Sky Demon Emperor replied coldly: "There’s no need to fight again, but the feud of my son I will certainly remember!"

"You and I will have a battle eventually, but definitely not now!"

The Sky Demon Emperor had no intention of fighting further.

Ye Fan said: "Whenever, I’m ready to accompany you anytime!"

He wasn’t one to be feared. Even fighting against the Gun God, nearly dying, he feared no battle.

Sky Demon Emperor commanded: "Let’s move!"

He led a mighty army of a hundred thousand, leaving immediately. Undoubtedly, he came today looking for a victory, but it was a complete failure.

There was no victory found, and he was even injured.

Thus, knowing remaining here had no meaning whatsoever.

Ye Fan wiped the blood from his lips.

At this point, he descended to the ground.

"Never expected Brother Heavenly King had grown to a level where he could rival Sky Demon Emperor. In the future, your path will be much longer than ours.

Feng Shaohao congratulated.

But Ye Fan sighed and said: "I still grew too late."

Instantly, Feng Shaohao and others spat blood. They knew Ye Fan was doing it on purpose. Already a First Grade Ancestor Realm, how much faster do you want.

At this time, Feng Lian appeared.

He said: "Sky Demon Emperor is not simple, so little friend, when you go to Infinite Sword Sect, you must be careful!"

Ye Fan nodded.

He said: "It’s not early, we’ll set off in three days to Infinite Sword Sect. The road ahead depends on you guys."

"Remember the teachings!

Feng Lian looked towards Feng Xingjiu, only to see him say to Feng Xingjiu:

"What are your plans after going back?"

Feng Xingjiu hurriedly replied: "Reporting to the Lord, I surely want to revitalize Kai Feng Sect, raise the prestige of the righteous path!"

At this moment, Feng Lian said: "My Purple Cloud Mansion lacks a Protector; I see you fit for the role!"

Instantly, Feng Xingjiu was elated. How could he not know the benefits of being a Protector? It’s being one rank beneath the highest!

Though he knew, his strength was far from qualified to be a Protector.

Feng Lian must have given him the position due to Ye Fan’s favor.

Though he governed Kai Feng Sect, there was no comparison between Kai Feng Sect and Purple Cloud Mansion.

Just then, Ye Fan said to Feng Xingjiu:

"Since the Lord is cultivating you, shouldn’t you thank the Lord quickly!"

"Feng Xingjiu thanks the Lord for the cultivation!

Feng Xingjiu said excitedly.

Feng Lian said: "I have high hopes for you, for Kai Feng Sect was once a glorious sect. I hope you can revitalize Kai Feng Sect!"

"Certainly!"

Feng Xingjiu said firmly.

"Good, go settle your matters with Kai Feng Sect and Purple Elixir Sect, then come along!

"Yes!"

Feng Xingjiu immediately bid farewell to Ye Fan and Feng Lian and hurried off towards Kai Feng Sect.

At this time, Ye Fan said: "Purple Elixir Sect matters I’ll trouble the Lord with!

"Hahaha! No need to be so polite, you and I are both Ancestor Realms. We should address each other as peers!"

Feng Lian laughed.

Ye Fan said: "No, no, you are the senior, I am the junior, so this etiquette must be maintained!"

"Alright, I’ll handle Purple Elixir Sect. You can just go to Infinite Sword Sect with peace of mind, as it’s the place for you to soar high!"

Feng Lian said to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan nodded solemnly.

...

Feng Xingjiu returned to Green Sun Town.

He did not go back to Kai Feng Sect but first went to the Purple Elixir Sect, because now Ye Fan’s strength warranted such actions.

The three leaders of Purple Elixir Sect received Feng Xingjiu.

Though Purple Elixir Sect and Kai Feng Sect were of the same status, the Purple Elixir Sect Master knew the reason for their esteemed position was due to Ye Fan’s accomplishments.

Purple Elixir Sect couldn’t compare to Kai Feng Sect.

At this time, Feng Xingjiu excitedly told these shocking news to the three women of Purple Elixir Sect.

The three women were shocked; although news to them was scant, they had heard, a year ago, Ye Fan had slain Void Demonic Path’s first talent, Little Demon King.

But unexpected, today Ye Fan had grown to a level equaling Sky Demon Emperor—a mythical existence in their eyes.

The three women knew Ye Fan’s stage wasn’t in Green Sun Town or Void Land. His stage was at the vast central continent.

Sadly, they could only watch as Ye Fan marched forward gloriously, knowing he wouldn’t return to the Purple Elixir Sect.

Purple Elixir Sect only advanced under Ye Fan’s name.

However, for some reason, while feeling happy for Ye Fan, a bittersweet feeling spread within them. Even if Purple Elixir Sect’s status improved likewise.

They were not people prone to bitterness until they found the person who could evoke it, maybe they were merely passing characters in Ye Fan’s life.

But Ye Fan was their whole life, yet he neither noticed nor understood their sentiment.
