What object?
Sword qi!
And this strand of sword qi was not from anyone else, it was from his old man!
The sword qi of the man in green robes!
Ye Xuan stared at the woman before him in astonishment, “You… you are my little sister?”
The woman blinked, “No!”
Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed slightly.
The woman continued, “I am his disciple! He said I could come find you, and you would take care of me!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
At this moment, he wanted to curse!
Bloody hell!
He wanted to be taken care of himself!
This old man only did inhuman things!
The woman looked at Ye Xuan, “What should I call you?”
Ye Xuan pulled back his thoughts. He sized up the woman, then said, “Since my old man took you as a disciple, you must have something extraordinary about you!”
The little girl nodded, “Of course!”
Ye Xuan asked, “Where is the extraordinary part?”
The little girl looked at Ye Xuan, “Uncle Yang said I am the daughter of an old acquaintance, so he took me as a disciple. Does that count as extraordinary?”
Ye Xuan stared at the little girl, “What do you think?”
The little girl stood up and bowed respectfully to Ye Xuan, “Greetings, senior brother!”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
The woman added, “If you think this form of address is not good, I can change it!”
Ye Xuan asked, “Why come to extort me?”
The woman sighed softly, “I am not extorting you. I really am from the Shen Ge Clan!”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was stunned. He turned to look at Zhen Yuan beside him, who hurriedly nodded.
Ye Xuan said gravely, “You are from the Shen Ge Clan?”
The woman nodded, “My name is Nan Youyou. My ancestor knew Uncle Yang!”
The surname Nan!
Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed.
He naturally did not know, because he was completely ignorant of his father’s generation!
Heaven help him, he had been left to fend for himself since birth!
Nan Youyou continued, “I really came to cause you trouble at first, but I sensed the bloodline in your body, so I could only reason with you!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “I have no intention of being enemies with the Shen Ge Clan!”
Nan Youyou looked at Ye Xuan, “But you saved the enemies of the Shen Ge Clan!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “How about this? You go back and tell them, the son’s debt is repaid by the father! Let them go find my dad. His name is Yang Ye, likes to wear a green robe. If necessary, I can provide a portrait too!”
Nan Youyou blinked, “Are you not afraid of getting beaten?”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “We have deep father-son affection. He will not beat me!”
Nan Youyou sighed softly, “Senior brother, let us talk business! I was ordered to capture you, and now I am in a difficult position! If I do not take you back, I will be punished! If I capture you, you are my senior brother, how can I lay hands on you? So… I am in a bind!”
Ye Xuan said, “Come follow me!”
Nan Youyou nodded, “Alright!”
Ye Xuan was stunned, “You will not consider it?”
Nan Youyou shook her head immediately, “No need!”
Ye Xuan was speechless.
Beside them, Zhen Yuan’s face turned ugly.
It was over!
Bloody hell!
The person from the Shen Ge Clan had defected?
What the hell was there to play now!
Nan Youyou turned to glance at Zhen Yuan, whose face instantly paled!
He knew she was going to silence him!
Sure enough, Nan Youyou waved her hand casually. A terrifying force swept over, and before Zhen Yuan could react, he was directly erased!
Nan Youyou clapped her hands, then smiled, “Senior brother, the troublesome issue is solved!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Are you not afraid they will come for you?”
Nan Youyou said seriously, “Senior brother will protect me!”
Ye Xuan glanced at Nan Youyou, then said, “You are not a core member of the Shen Ge Clan?”
Nan Youyou nodded, “Yes! I am just a minor offering to the Shen Ge Clan! The peripheral kind!”
Ye Xuan took a sip of the small wine, then said, “My dad gave you a strand of sword qi!”
Nan Youyou nodded slightly, “To protect my life at a critical moment!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Did he give you anything else?”
Nan Youyou said, “A sword manual!”
Ye Xuan said, “Can I take a look?”
Nan Youyou opened her palm, and a sword manual appeared before Ye Xuan. He opened it and glanced through. Moments later, he closed it and said, “It suits you!”
This sword manual was naturally good, but it no longer suited him!
Nan Youyou looked at Ye Xuan, “We need to leave this place. Otherwise, if the Shen Ge Clan comes looking, we will both be in big trouble!”
Ye Xuan said, “Help me find someone!”
Nan Youyou asked, “Who?”
Ye Xuan said, “Qingqiu! She brought a hundred people here for training!”
Nan Youyou said gravely, “Then she should be in the Desolate Lands. That place is home to powerful desolate demons, a great spot for training!”
Ye Xuan stood up, “Let us go!”
Nan Youyou looked at Ye Xuan, “Alright!”
With that, the two vanished from the spot.
Desolate Lands!
Soon, Ye Xuan and Nan Youyou arrived at the Desolate Lands. As soon as they entered, Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed, because he sensed countless powerful auras.
Ye Xuan looked up into the distance. At the end of his line of sight were endless stretches of vast mountains.
Nan Youyou said softly, “They should be deep in those mountains. Those desolate demons are extremely powerful. The Shen Ge Clan tried to subdue them several times but failed!”
Ye Xuan was somewhat surprised, “Their strength can compare to the Shen Ge Clan?”
Nan Youyou shook her head with a smile, “Naturally not. If the Shen Ge Clan wanted to exterminate them, it would be easy. But they have someone backing them!”
Ye Xuan asked curiously, “Who?”
Nan Youyou said gravely, “The King of the Universe! A very powerful cultivator. Even the Shen Ge Clan has to give him face, so the Shen Ge Clan has not troubled this desolate demon clan!”
Ye Xuan nodded slightly. He looked towards the mountain range. Soon, the corners of his mouth curved up slightly, because he sensed Qingqiu’s aura!
Qingqiu, that girl, was in this mountain range.
Ye Xuan said, “Let us go!”
With that, he led Nan Youyou forward. But at that moment, a terrifying aura suddenly swept down from the horizon!
Seeing this, Nan Youyou’s face changed dramatically, “It is a powerhouse from the Shen Ge Clan!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “No need to panic!”
At this time, a black-robed old man appeared before Ye Xuan and Nan Youyou. Seeing this black-robed old man, Nan Youyou’s face sank immediately.
The black-robed old man glanced at Nan Youyou, “I never expected you to defect!”
Nan Youyou smiled, “I never expected the Grand Offering to come personally either!”
The black-robed old man looked coldly at Nan Youyou, then turned to Ye Xuan, “Where are those two from the Ming Empire?”
Ye Xuan shook his head, “I do not know!”
The black-robed old man’s eyes narrowed slightly, “You broke our Shen Ge Clan’s seal, so you are no ordinary person. Come, state your name!”
Ye Xuan thought for a moment, then said, “Do you really think I broke that seal?”
The black-robed old man’s brows furrowed, “What do you mean?”
Ye Xuan looked at the black-robed old man, “Play a long game to catch a big fish, understand?”
The black-robed old man was stunned.
Beside him, Nan Youyou was also stunned for a moment, then hurriedly smiled, “Grand Offering, if you do not understand, you can go back and ask our Shen Ge Clan higher-ups!”
The black-robed old man’s face turned somewhat ugly!
Could this really be a scheme from the Shen Ge Clan higher-ups?
Play a long game to catch a big fish!
He was still half-believing!
The reason he half-believed was twofold. First, he did not believe Ye Xuan could break the Shen Ge Clan’s seal. Second, he did not believe Nan Youyou would dare to defect!
Nan Youyou had no reason to defect either!
Defect from the Shen Ge Clan?
That was tantamount to seeking death!
The black-robed old man was silent for a moment, then said, “What plan does the clan have?”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “Release them, then use them to wipe out the remnants of the Ming Empire in one fell swoop, and obtain the treasures of the Ming Empire through them!”
The black-robed old man said gravely, “Why have I not received any news?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Grand Offering, for such matters, is it not better if fewer people know? If you do not believe me, go back and ask!”
The black-robed old man hesitated, then said, “What you say, is it true?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Do you think Youyou would betray the Shen Ge Clan?”
The black-robed old man said gravely, “No!”
Ye Xuan nodded and smiled, “According to our intelligence, that Princess Qi has already entered the Desolate Lands!”
The black-robed old man said, “I will go with you!”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan was stunned.
Nan Youyou blinked, saying nothing.
The black-robed old man said, “I am at least at the peak of the ninth realm. I will not hold you back!”
This was a great merit, and he naturally wanted a share too!
Ye Xuan did not refuse and smiled, “Alright!”
If he refused, this old man would go back and ask, and the lie would be exposed immediately!
Since that was the case, let the other follow!
The black-robed old man asked again, “To whom do you directly report?”
Before Ye Xuan could speak, Nan Youyou suddenly said, “To Hall Master Ge!”
Hall Master Ge!
Hearing this, the black-robed old man’s face changed instantly!
Li Ge!
This was the current young clan leader of the Shen Ge Clan!
This hall master was extraordinary. Though a woman, her prestige in the Shen Ge Clan was unparalleled!
In such a great clan, for a woman to become the young clan leader, it already showed how terrifying she was!
Nan Youyou suddenly added, “Elder Zhang, this Young Master Ye is a trusted aide of Hall Master Ge!”
Trusted aide!
Elder Zhang’s expression shifted. He looked at Ye Xuan, and his gaze immediately became much more respectful, “So it is someone of Hall Master Ge. Forgive my disrespect!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Elder Zhang, let us enter the Desolate Lands!”
Elder Zhang nodded, “Alright!”
Originally, he wanted to take the lead, but upon hearing Ye Xuan was Hall Master Ge’s person, he decisively gave up the idea!
Hall Master Ge!
Was this not the core figure of the next generation?
Once Hall Master Ge rose to power, such people would rise with her.
This was the new nobility of the future Shen Ge Clan!
Must make connections!
Just as the three were about to enter the Desolate Lands, a group of powerhouses suddenly blocked their path!
Ye Xuan’s brows furrowed!
Nan Youyou sent a voice transmission with profound qi, “From the Shen Ge Clan!”
Ye Xuan was speechless.
At this moment, Elder Zhang suddenly shouted angrily, “What are you doing?”
The leading middle-aged man saw Elder Zhang and was first stunned, then said, “Elder Zhang, you…”
Elder Zhang said angrily, “What you? Get out of here for this old man!”
The middle-aged man hesitated, then said, “Elder Zhang, we received news that he released the remnants of the Ming Empire, he…”
“Shut up!”
Elder Zhang shouted again, “This is Young Master Ye! Speak politely to him!”
The middle-aged man was full of confusion.
Elder Zhang was somewhat impatient, “Get lost quickly. Do not ask more. If there is any issue, this old man will bear it all!”
The middle-aged man: “…”
