Best Young Master

Chapter 1941: Chapter 1806: The Ten Strongest Heirs

"Oh no! I haven’t handed over the demon crystals!"

Back at his residence, Ye Fan realized that he hadn’t submitted his demon crystals at all, and the white-haired City Lord hadn’t mentioned anything about them. Could he have forgotten?

"Don’t worry, not only have you not handed them over, but all the returning contestants haven’t either. Right now, the City Lord doesn’t have time to check the quantity and quality of your demon crystals. If that Evil Corpse breaks into the Ancient Demon City, the entire city will be in great trouble," Zi Xiaoyi said at the side.

Most of the contestants had already returned before Ye Fan came back.

Just as Ye Fan thought, after escaping life-threatening situations, they all remembered the Transmission Array Platform and directly invoked it to traverse through the void to return.

Speaking of this, Ye Fan couldn’t help but feel a wave of regret; he was so foolish to not think of traversing the void, making Bai Yan wolf look down on him and worrying Zi Huan greatly.

The Demon Beast Forest was filled with dangers. Although she was very confident in Ye Fan, seeing most people return while he hadn’t yet, she couldn’t help but worry and shed tears.

If Zi Xiaoyi hadn’t stopped her, she probably would have gone to the Demon Beast Forest to look for Ye Fan three days ago.

"So, has the selection competition been postponed?" Ye Fan inquired.

"I think it has been. Such an incident, the Evil Corpse must be dealt with first before the selection competition can continue smoothly. Otherwise, if the Evil Corpse attacks during the competition, it will be troublesome!" Zi Xiaoyi confirmed.

"By the way, Brother Ye, did you encounter Mo Family’s strongest heir, Mo Yangwang?" Zi Huan asked Ye Fan from the side.

Everyone else had returned, and now even Ye Fan was back, but Mo Family’s strongest heir, Mo Yangwang, hadn’t returned. This matter had shocked the entire Mo Family.

"Yes, I met him. He tried to kill me, but I killed him instead," Ye Fan said calmly.

"Just as I expected!"

Zi Huan had a look of unsurprised expression; she had long since thought that Mo Yangwang, though strong, was definitely not a match for Ye Fan. If he foolishly attacked Ye Fan, the result could only be death.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a loud explosion was heard, shaking the entire Ancient Demon City. Many buildings were collapsed, only a few important ones revealed mysterious runes to offset the tremor and remain intact.

"What’s going on?" Zi Xiaoyi said in panic.

He had lived here for decades, always very peaceful, never had such a change occurred.

"Could it be that Evil Corpse has attacked?" Zi Huan said, subconsciously gripping Ye Fan’s big hand tightly.

"Very likely. You all wait here, I’ll go check it out!" Ye Fan said solemnly.

He was well aware of the Evil Corpse’s power; in the entire Ancient Demon City, perhaps only the white-haired City Lord could stand against it, and even the City Protection Array might not keep it at bay.

"I’ll go with you!"

Zi Huan’s expression was resolute. During the month-separated from Ye Fan, she suddenly realized what important place Ye Fan held in her heart.

After the selection competition, Ye Fan might go to another world, and they would be separated forever.

This was the last time before their separation; she no longer wished to part from Ye Fan.

Seeing her resolute plead in her expression, Ye Fan’s heart softened, and he sighed.

Emotional debts are hard to repay!

"Alright, but don’t stray more than a yard from me, or I can’t ensure your safety!" Ye Fan nodded, agreeing.

He couldn’t refuse; Zi Huan was using her life to accompany him through the final moments in this world!

"Rest assured, I won’t leave you; even if you chase me away, I won’t go."

Zi Huan smiled sweetly, holding Ye Fan’s arm tightly, walking with him towards the city outskirts.

Along the way, Ye Fan saw many strong people rushing towards where the sound came from; some flew, some walked, all were very fast.

Ye Fan didn’t fly into the sky, but held Zi Huan’s small hand and swiftly moved through the crowd like a fish.

Many people were squeezed to the sides; Ye Fan exploited the Chasing Star Step to its fullest, able to pass through dense Array Patterns, let alone crowds.

Soon, they reached the outskirts of the city, where a dense crowd filled the area, even the sky was full of people.

Ye Fan immediately spotted nine people from the Ten Great Families, as one of them was a familiar face—Xingtian!

These nine were at the edge, closest to the battlefield.

Ye Fan also saw the thousand-foot tall Evil Corpse, which had reached the edge of the Demon Beast Forest, battling a silver-haired middle-aged man.

This silver-haired middle-aged man was the City Lord of the Ancient Demon City, also the Peak Combat Power in the entire Demon World—the Ancient Demon King!

The Ten Great Families were all present, one of the factions exuded intense killing intent, everyone looking grim.

"That’s the Han Family, ranked last among the Ten Great Families. Their strongest heir, Han Zhan Tian, fell in this elimination contest, now they’re eager to kill!"

Zi Huan whispered to Ye Fan’s ear.

Others returned before Ye Fan; their deeds had spread throughout Ancient Demon City, so Zi Huan knew more than Ye Fan.

"Tell me about the Ten Great Families’ matters. I’ll encounter them sooner or later; knowing more would help me be prepared." Ye Fan said calmly to Zi Huan.

"Who is this kid? So arrogant."

"Another clueless country bumpkin. The strongest heirs of the Ten Great Families are all heavenly prides. How can a country bumpkin challenge them?"

Ye Fan didn’t deliberately lower his voice, so his words were heard by those around him, and many cast astonished glances his way.

"Isn’t this that strongest heir of the Purple Demon Family, Zi Yefan? No wonder he’s so confident!"

Soon, someone recognized Ye Fan and couldn’t help being surprised. They originally thought Ye Fan had died in the Demon Beast Forest, yet unexpectedly, he appeared again before everyone.

Because Ye Fan returned three days later than everyone else, people all assumed he’d fallen prey to the beasts.

Unexpectedly, he returned safely, which struck everyone hard.

Seeing Ye Fan inquire about the Ten Great Families, everyone felt relieved.

Here was a fearless man who dared to rebuke even Xingtian, the strongest heir of the Xing Family, ranked third among the Ten Great Families; what wouldn’t he do?

After recognizing Ye Fan and a brief moment of surprise, many deliberately distanced themselves from him, reluctant to stand too close.

"Boom!"

In the battlefield afar, the fierce battle was raging, with the white-haired City Lord, Ancient Demon King, clearly possessing the combat power of a Supreme Holy Master, each strike was enough to destroy the heavens and the earth.

The battlefield repeatedly exploded with horrific destructive aura and dazzling light.

Despite his size being disproportionate, the Ancient Demon King wasn’t at a disadvantage, instead pressing the Evil Corpse hard.

Ye Fan possessed the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye, not in use, but his eye power was unmatched by ordinary people, except the clan leaders and elders of various families, perhaps only he could see everything on the battlefield clearly.

The Ancient Demon King’s combat power was boundless, showcasing all kinds of mighty martial arts, driving the Evil Corpse continually back, roaring in anguish.

Though the Evil Corpse had a huge body, possessing overwhelming dominance, his mind remained dull, actions clumsy.

Their battle reminded Ye Fan of an ancient fable he once saw on Earth, the story of the lion and the mosquito.

Now, the Evil Corpse was that proud lion, though large in size and more powerful than the Ancient Demon King, his clumsy actions placed him in a position of passive beating.

On the contrary, the Ancient Demon King took advantage of his smaller size, frequently attacking, the death energy full of devouring and corroding properties striking the Evil Corpse, bursting into brilliant light clusters.

The Evil Corpse also had extreme resilience, his body comparable to Immortal Gold, the Ancient Demon King struck for half a day, yet couldn’t break his defense.

This battle captivated Ye Fan, teaching him much from the Ancient Demon King.

The Ancient Demon King had exceptionally rich combat experience, controlling his Power of Death to perfection, often using one part of energy to exert ten parts of force.

"That gray-haired youth is the strongest heir of the Tu Family, ranked first among the Ten Great Families, Tu Sihai. This person is extremely powerful, ruthless, reportedly reached the Peak of Demon Master Realm, potentially breaking the Venerable Level barrier, challenging strong people of Demon Venerate Realm..."

While Ye Fan watched the battle, Zi Huan was also introducing the strongest heirs of the Ten Great Families to him.

After Zi Huan’s introduction, Ye Fan couldn’t help but focus a bit on Tu Sihai.

This person had a medium build, seemingly unremarkable, only his gray hair was eye-catching.

At this moment, he stood in the void, the most forward position, within three meters of his side, no one approached.

"That youth shrouded in purple light is the strongest heir of the Luo Family, ranked second, Luo Yifu. Behind him are wings comparable to Holy Weapons, his strength very terrifying."

Zi Huan continued introducing.

Meanwhile, the battlefield witnessed changes, the Evil Corpse spewing dense Corpse Qi, resembling a Demon King, slamming the void with a palm that cooled the hearts of distant spectators.

Such a horrific attack, with a single blow, could flatten a clan, within an hour reducing an Ancient City to ruins.

The Ancient Demon King exhibited Absolute Techniques, eyes projecting two beams of Death Light, breaking through the Evil Corpse’s defense, leaving two transparent small holes on him.

"This is..."

Ye Fan’s eyes tightened, pupils instantly narrowed, he thought of the Heavenly Demon Eye, also known as the Death Demon Eye secret technique obtained from the Purple Demon Family.

This secret technique was remarkably similar to the one the Ancient Demon King had just used.

Ye Fan secretly simulated in his mind, deducing, gradually finding some clues; two strands of Death Energy separated from the purple crystal above his Dantian, coursing along both sides of his body, converging, colliding at the pineal gland on his brow.

Ye Fan felt the pineal gland location on his brow throbbing, Death Energy faintly showing signs of breaking out.

"Succeeded!"

Ye Fan inwardly moved, this was the correct way to activate the Death Demon Eye, two strands of Death Energy, divided into two routes, advancing side by side, then colliding at the pineal gland location on the brow, bursting forth with terrifying Power of Destruction.

Though he hadn’t tested the Death Demon Eye’s power, he believed the power must be extremely terrifying.

This would be his trump card, if necessary, during the competition, he’d let his opponents experience being shot by the glow of the Death Demon Eye.

"You’ve already known Xingtian, I won’t introduce him more; that youth shrouded in black mist is the strongest heir of the Qi Family, ranked fourth, Qi Motian. His strength is most mysterious, allegedly skillful in Curses, can kill invisibly, most difficult to defend against..."

Zi Huan didn’t know Ye Fan’s thoughts had wandered off, still continuously introducing.
