“Damn the Qingshan Sect! Damn Lu Ming! Our Ancient God Clan cannot coexist with them! We must destroy them and avenge Baili Mo...”
What the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan actually thought in his heart didn't matter; the expression on his face was executed flawlessly.
He gnashed his teeth, radiating murderous intent, looking completely determined not to rest until the Qingshan Sect was destroyed...
Though he didn't even know who this Lu Ming was.
He even suspected that Lu Ming was just a name his Ancestor had completely made up on the spot!
After all, he hadn't gone out at all recently, so how could he possibly know someone named Lu Ming?
As for the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan's attitude...
Ye Fan was highly satisfied. Sure enough, once one became the Ancestor of a power, doing anything became incredibly convenient.
He was no longer restricted at every turn like before!
“By the way, what's the deal with this Qingshan Sect?”
Ye Fan turned to ask the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan.
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan looked at Ye Fan's serious little expression.
He couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
Why does it feel like the Ancestor's illness is getting worse and worse?
He's even learned to act deep, serious, and aloof now!
If I didn't know our Ancestor has been foolish his entire life...
Looking at his expression now, one might actually mistake him for a normal person!
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan still patiently explained once more to Ye Fan:
“This Qingshan Sect, just like us, is also an ancient power passed down after the Immortal Ancient War...”
I've told the Ancestor this so many times, yet he's asking again!
Ye Fan's gaze focused. As expected, this Qingshan Sect was not simple!
It was actually a power from the Immortal Ancient era!
At this moment, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan's voice continued:
“After the Immortal Ancient War, the entire Xuantian Continent suffered heavy damage. Spiritual energy was depleted, and it almost turned into a mortal realm!”
Turning into a mortal realm meant that this world would no longer support cultivation, and there would be no more cultivators!
Hearing this, Ye Fan was somewhat surprised.
He hadn't expected the Xuantian Continent to have such a history.
“It's just that for some unknown reason later on, the Xuantian Continent actually began to slowly recover...”
“As time passed, the Xuantian Continent actually showed signs of returning to its ancient state.”
“At that point, we ancient powers all prepared to emerge and expand our forces...”
Hearing this, Ye Fan silently looked at the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan.
He was somewhat curious as to why these ancient powers hadn't emerged.
Seeing Ye Fan's expression, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan couldn't help but sigh softly.
If only our Ancestor weren't foolish, he might actually have been able to challenge the Qingshan Sect!
Then, he continued to recount:
“Just as we were about to begin, the Qingshan Sect was the first to open its gates and recruit disciples.”
“They were on track to become the number one sect of the Xuantian Continent, but then, for some unknown reason...”
“I know about this!”
Ye Fan interrupted the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan right then. He had already heard about this back when he was at the Tiansheng Sect.
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan wasn't surprised at all when Ye Fan said he knew.
After all, who knew how many times he had already told the Ancestor these things!
Still, he hoped his Ancestor could understand the situation.
“The Qingshan Sect's sudden disbandment made us afraid to emerge as well! Afterward, we discovered that the Xuantian Continent had actually stopped ascending, and had even regressed a bit...”
Ye Fan nodded. He realized that this Xuantian Continent was truly not simple.
However, none of this was his concern. Right now, he only wanted to kill that damn mortal and then ascend to the Immortal Realm!
As for whatever happened to this world, it had nothing to do with him!
Then, he continued to question the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan:
“So, how strong is the Qingshan Sect?”
The Patriarch's eyes flickered slightly. Sigh... the Ancestor's mind is still a jumbled mess!
Every time he told the Ancestor these things, he had mentioned the Qingshan Sect.
He remembers the Qingshan Sect disbanding, but he doesn't remember their strength!
Thinking of the Qingshan Sect's strength, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan also felt a bit of a headache.
Those few old geezers from his generation who were still alive were incredibly fierce, fiercely protective, and completely unreasonable.
Back then, he himself had been beaten up by that crazy woman Huo Furong, and also by that mute Hanyan...
Sigh... the past is too painful to look back on!
He just didn't know how their strength was after so many years.
Fortunately, the Qingshan Sect didn't have many people.
They weren't afraid of the Qingshan Sect either. If worst came to worst, he could unite with the other ancient powers to gang up on them!
Recalling the past, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan continued:
“The Qingshan Sect's strength is extremely formidable. Do not provoke them for no reason!”
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan still spoke the truth in this regard.
He didn't want his Ancestor's brain to suddenly freeze up and lead him to go pick a fight with the Qingshan Sect.
Back then, they had only spared him because they saw he was a fool!
For their Ancestor to achieve what he had today, aside from his extraordinary talent...
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan even suspected it was because he was a fool, so no one had taken him seriously!
If he were a normal person, he probably would have been killed long ago!
Hearing the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan's words, Ye Fan frowned:
“Since the Qingshan Sect is so powerful, how are we supposed to seek revenge?”
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan was taken aback. His Ancestor was actually able to spot the loophole in his words! But no matter, he could cover for it!
Then, he smiled slightly:
“Didn't you say that the Qingshan Sect also killed people from several other powers?”
“I will go contact them right away. We will discuss it and go destroy the Qingshan Sect together...”
Seeing Ye Fan nod, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Sigh... I've finally coaxed him!
“Ancestor, please rest first. I shall take my leave and attend to matters!”
Seeing that Ye Fan had nothing else, the Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan took his leave and departed!
As he walked to the entrance, he happened to run into Hu Bugui, the Soul Transformation cultivator who took care of the Ancestor.
At this moment, the other party was holding two skewers of candied hawthorns in his hands.
“Are these for the Ancestor?”
Hearing the Patriarch's inquiry, Hu Bugui nodded repeatedly:
“Yes! The Ancestor wanted some earlier, so I went out to buy them for him!”
The Patriarch of the Ancient God Clan nodded, then transmitted his voice to instruct him:
“The Ancestor's illness seems to have worsened again. If he asks you whether we've gone to attack the Qingshan Sect...”
“Just tell him that I am already contacting the Ancient Imperial Clan and several other powers, preparing to lay siege to the Qingshan Sect...”
Hu Bugui nodded repeatedly. “Understood, Patriarch. Rest assured, I will definitely keep the Ancestor happy!”
Sigh... the Ancestor wanted to eat candied hawthorns just a moment ago, but in the time it took me to buy them, he wants to attack the Qingshan Sect again!
He really acts on every passing whim!
Seeing the Patriarch leave, Hu Bugui finally turned and walked inside.
“Ancestor, look what I bought for you!”
Ye Fan, who was still deep in thought, suddenly heard this shout.
Looking up abruptly, he saw a Soul Transformation cultivator holding up two skewers of candied hawthorns, staring at him with excitement.
Looking at those two skewers of bright red candied hawthorns, memories flooded back. Ye Fan remembered that before his predecessor died, he had been clamoring to eat candied hawthorns.
This kid had gone out to buy them!
Ye Fan's face darkened. As a grand Immortal Emperor, how could he possibly crave candied hawthorns!
In the split second he was dazed, a skewer of candied hawthorns was already placed into his hand.
His body actually reacted instinctively, putting the candied hawthorns into his mouth.
Feeling the sweetness in his mouth, Ye Fan was stunned. Snapping out of it, he threw the candied hawthorns away in a fit of rage.
“I'm not eating this!”
Damn body reflex! It actually made me make such a fool of myself!
But then again... why did it actually taste quite good?
Immediately after, Ye Fan realized that this was the preference of this body.
