Best Young Master

Chapter 1932: Chapter 1797: Sitting at Home, Disaster Descends from the Skies

"Get lost!"

Hearing this, Ye Fan squinted his eyes, his voice thunderous like spring lightning, and coldly shouted, "If you don’t get lost now, I’ll send you on your way right now!"

"Kid, just wait, we’re leaving!"

Xingtian uttered harsh words, managing to salvage some dignity, so as not to completely lose face, and then hurriedly departed from Ziyi Square with his entourage.

"I really want to slap him to death."

After Xingtian left, Ye Fan muttered to himself.

"Brother Ye, you have no idea how awe-inspiring you were just now, scolding Xingtian like he was a little chick!"

Zi Huan jumped up, hugged Ye Fan tightly, and planted a bright "strawberry" on his cheek.

"It’s all over, completely over now!"

Zi Xiaoyi hadn’t quite come to his senses yet, still collapsed on the ground, muttering unceasingly, clearly frightened.

"Uncle, get up, it’s alright now, Xingtian and his men have already left."

Upon hearing this, Zi Huan pursed her lips and said to Zi Xiaoyi.

She was speechless at her uncle’s lack of courage.

But there was nothing she could do; Zi Xiaoyi was habitually cautious, otherwise, the clan wouldn’t have sent him to the Ancient Demon City.

It took Zi Xiaoyi a while to come back to his senses, and with a defeated expression, he said, "We’ve completely offended the Xing Family now; our family will never have the hope of rising again, and it will be hard to avenge our great hatred."

"Uncle, don’t be so pessimistic, okay? Don’t we still have Brother Ye? I’m sure Brother Ye will certainly make it into the top ten; our family still has hope." Zi Huan said.

"At this point, we can only hope so. Ye Fan, our family is now completely relying on you; make sure you enter the top ten! Otherwise, not only will our family be finished, but even Zi Huan will be in danger!"

Zi Xiaoyi grasped Ye Fan’s hand like he’d found a savior, almost pleadingly.

"Don’t worry, I will certainly make it into the top ten."

Ye Fan nodded. He didn’t have much affection for Zi Xiaoyi, but for Zi Huan’s sake, he agreed to help.

Even if not for the Purple Demon Family, he would definitely give his all to enter the top ten for Zi Huan’s promise!

"Among the younger generation, I fear no one, but I worry the Xing Family might send older strong people to retaliate; we don’t have enough power to handle that." Ye Fan said, frowning.

He himself was not afraid; if he couldn’t win, he could escape, but Zi Xiaoyi would be in danger. He could escape with one person, Zi Huan, but with two, it would be impossible.

Moreover, who knows if the Ancient Demon City, which has stood for millions of years, has any powerful Forbidden barriers? If they cut off the Void, it would be impossible to traverse it, turning them into sitting ducks.

"You can rest assured about that!"

Zi Xiaoyi said, "Over the years, an unwritten rule has formed in the Ancient Demon City to ensure fair competition; before the tournament, older strong people are never allowed to attack contestants, or else the family will be wiped out, even the Ten Great Families are no exception."

Upon hearing this news, Ye Fan was immediately relieved.

As long as the older strong people don’t intervene, among the younger generation, he fears no one!

"Uncle, I’d like to ask you to investigate something for me."

Ye Fan deliberated for a while and decided to ask Zi Xiaoyi to help him investigate a way to leave this world. He thought there must be an altar in the Demon World for traversing the Star Domain, but he didn’t know where it was.

This ancient altar had no fluctuation; unless you were right in front of it and saw it with your own eyes, you could even walk over it and not notice it.

The Demon Clan are the original inhabitants of this world, having lived and reproduced for countless generations. If there were such an altar, it would surely have been discovered.

His only concern was Zi Xiaoyi’s identity and status being too low to reach the core secrets of this world, ending up wasting efforts.

"What is it? If it’s within my power, I will certainly do my best!"

Now Zi Xiaoyi viewed Ye Fan as the only savior, so he dared not neglect his requests.

"I want to ask you to investigate how one might access the depths of space and leave this world." Ye Fan said calmly.

"This... is very difficult, but I will try my best!"

Zi Xiaoyi frowned. As a native of this world, he had heard many ancient legends from a young age, but had never heard of anyone crossing the Star Domain to leave this world.

Of course, those like the ancestors of the Purple Demon Family who once ventured into space are exceptions, and those people did not leave directly from this world; they entered a higher world before embarking on the journey through space.

After promising to help, Zi Xiaoyi buried himself in ancient texts, searching for clues about leaving this world.

Meanwhile, at the Heavenly Treasure Palace of the Xing Family, Xingtian’s face was gloomy, like a volcano ready to erupt.

A chaotic scene surrounded him; teacups and teapots were smashed on the ground, and a fine table had been smashed into pieces.

The entourage stood at a distance, not daring to breathe, fearing Xingtian might take out his anger on them.

"Withdraw the order to protect Ziyi Square; from now on, Ziyi Square’s safety has nothing to do with the Xing Family!" Xingtian roared.

The news of Xingtian’s humiliation at Ziyi Square couldn’t be contained and spread widely, astonishing many!

Suddenly, business at Ziyi Square became booming; many cultivators used the pretext of buying Demon Artifacts, indirectly hoping to get some inside information.

However—

They were disappointed; people at Ziyi Square kept their mouths shut, remaining incredibly tight-lipped, and regardless of the method used, everyone ultimately gained nothing.

Meanwhile, Zi Xiaoyi’s investigation yielded results in those few days.

After going through a mountain of ancient texts, Zi Xiaoyi concluded the Demon World is like a natural prison; there’s no way to leave it. Unless embarking on a space expedition, the only way out is to enter the top ten in the selection contest and be taken by people from the Upper Realm; otherwise, there is no way!

"Since this is the only way, we must ensure entering the top ten!"

Upon learning this news, Ye Fan was resolute.

Firstly, to fulfill the promise he made to Zi Huan, and secondly, to leave this world and continue to train in the vast cosmos, sharpening himself to become stronger.

Meanwhile, the entire Ancient Demon City was anything but peaceful, with undercurrents surging and young strongmen from various clans continuously arriving.

The arrival of each young strongman would provoke a commotion.

Because, the quality of this year’s young strongmen was generally higher than in previous years; each young strongman was exceptionally powerful.

So many people pouring into this ancient city injected vitality into it, yet simultaneously brought many variables.

However, ordinary citizens didn’t care about these things; they were concerned with their own food, clothing, shelter, and transport.

In the entire Demon World, the vast families numbered in the tens of thousands, and it’s impossible for each family to have its own industry in the Ancient Demon City.

Therefore, those who arrived early could stay in inns and taverns, while those arriving late could only rent residential houses.

This selection competition probably benefited the ordinary people in the Ancient Demon City the most, as the prices of various materials soared, changing once or even several times a day.

A large influx of cultivators into the Ancient Demon City allowed the ordinary people in the city to make a fortune.

But Zi Xiaoyi’s days weren’t going well.

Due to Xingtian withdrawing protection from Ziyi Square, some suspicious people kept lingering around the entrance these days.

Years of experience told him that trouble wasn’t far away; without the protection of the Xing Family, the Mo Family definitely wouldn’t let matters slide.

Knowing was one thing, but he had no way out; previously, Ziyi Square couldn’t suppress these people, and now that the Purple Demon Family was just a name, it was even harder to keep them in check.

In fact, since Xingtian left, several groups had already come to stir up trouble, but he hadn’t told Ye Fan.

To avoid trouble, Zi Xiaoyi decisively shut the shop’s doors, quietly waiting for the selection competition to begin, as business wasn’t much anyway, and they didn’t care about the money.

However—

Even if they wanted to close doors and avoid trouble, it wouldn’t work!

Sitting at home with the doors closed, trouble came from above!

That day, Ye Fan was meditating in his small building when he was suddenly awakened by the sound of violent door pounding.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Crash!"

The sound of the door being smashed open was particularly harsh.

Afterward, a large group of young cultivators rushed into the shop like madmen, smashing anything they saw, quickly reducing a well-kept shop to ruins.

"Zi Xiaoyi, get the hell out here, I’m here for revenge!"

The speaker was Mo Yangsheng, who was previously beaten into a pulp by Zi Huan. After some time of recuperation, along with his family using various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to heal him, he was now fully recovered, with slightly improved cultivation.

Having suffered such a great loss here, he naturally wouldn’t leave things be; as soon as his injuries recovered, he led a large group of house servants to smash the shop.

Previously the Mo Family received warnings from the Xing Family to not retaliate against Ziyi Square, and he thought that this revenge would never be exacted.

Unexpectedly, barely four days later, the Xing Family withdrew protection from Ziyi Square and claimed that Ziyi Square’s safety had nothing to do with the Xing Family.

In this scenario, what was there to fear?

Mo Yangsheng couldn’t sit still at the time; if not for his unhealed injuries, he would have come long ago.

Even so, he had already instructed some ruffians among the cultivators mingling in the Ancient Demon City to cause trouble, hoping for a big commotion.

However, Zi Xiao Member was too clever, giving them no pretext, which led to today’s confrontation.

In the entire Ancient Demon City, apart from the City Lord and the Ten Great Families, who did the Mo Family fear?

Everyone knew, in the entire Ancient Demon City, the Mo Family was considered the local bully; even those ranked lower among the Ten Great Families had to show them some respect.

A small Ziyi Square was nothing he paid any mind to.

"In broad daylight, you dare to forcefully invade a residence and rampantly loot and smash, do you have any regard for the law?"

Ye Fan appeared, blocking these people, and said with righteous indignation.

"Law? I’ll show you what law is; in this Ancient Demon City, we are the law!"

A self-important lackey cursed and swung a slap at Ye Fan’s face.

He was new this time and hadn’t seen the methods Ye Fan used to teach lessons previously.

In his mind, even if Ye Fan’s strength was greater than his, he wouldn’t dare retaliate, or he would never leave the Ancient Demon City alive.

However—he was wrong, and gravely wrong!

"Bang!"

Just as his hand was about to reach Ye Fan, his head suddenly exploded, blood mixed with brain matter, like countless peach blossoms blooming.

"Hiss..."

Everyone present couldn’t help but inhale sharply; they hadn’t seen how Ye Fan made his move, and their companion’s head was suddenly blasted apart—it was astonishing!
