Chapter 4127: You’ll Still Be Our Junior Brother
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Junior brother.”
Duan Ling Tian was immersed in his cultivation when Yang Yu Chen, who rarely returned to the Inner Palace faction’s independent realm, came looking for him.
“Third Senior Brother, what’s the matter?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously when he saw Yang Yu Chen’s hurried state.
“You have a good relationship with Ye Chen Feng when you were in the Pure Yang Sect, right?” Yang Yu Chen asked.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. “We get along quite well. In fact, he’s like a brother to my master.”
Duan Ling Tian knew of Ye Chen Feng’s admiration toward his master because of his master’s high attainment in the Sword Dao.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian’s eyes widened slightly as he asked anxiously, “Third Senior Brother, did something happen to Elder Ye?”
In the past, Ye Chen Feng had helped Duan Ling Tian tremendously to raise his cultivation base in a short time during the Seven Mansions Feast. He would not have been able to rank first in the Seven Mansions Feast if it were not for Ye Chen Feng’s help. As such, he had always felt greatly indebted to Ye Chen Feng even if Ye Chen Feng did not ask for anything in return. It was only natural that he was worried about Ye Chen Feng.
“He’s fine. He’s living better than all of us,” Yang Yu Chen said when he realized Duan Ling Tian had misunderstood his words. His expression was slightly strange as he continued to say, “He has broken through and become an advanced Emperor of Gods.”
Duan Ling Tian smiled when he heard Yang Yu Chen’s words. He was sincerely happy for Ye Chen Feng. He knew it was only a matter of time before Ye Chen Feng broke through and became an advanced Emperor of Gods. Even when he just joined the Pure Yang Sect, he knew that Ye Chen Feng was the most likely person to become an advanced Emperor of Gods in the Pure Yang Sect. However, he did not expect Ye Chen Feng to do it so soon. He could not help but wonder if Ye Chen Feng’s breakthrough had anything to do with the Secret Holy Land, in which he had helped obtain the slots during the Seven Mansions Feast.
After a moment, Duan Ling Tian sensed something was amiss. He asked, “What’s wrong? Third Senior Brother, you didn’t come just to tell me that Elder Ye has become an advanced Emperor of Gods, right? Moreover, your expression is rather strange.”
Duan Ling Tian had noticed Yang Yu Chen’s strange expression, but he did not pay attention to it until now. After all, he was shocked by the news of Ye Chen Feng’s breakthrough. It was only when he calmed down that he noticed that Yang Yu Chen seemed to have something else to say.
Upon hearing Duan Ling Tian’s words, Ye Chen Feng’s expression turned solemn as he said, “After becoming an advanced Emperor of Gods, without waiting for his cultivation base to stabilize, Ye Chen Feng went to a supreme-rank force and challenged the force’s only rudimentary Supreme God.”
Duan Ling Tian was shocked by Yang Yu Chen’s words. Why did Ye Chen Feng challenge a Supreme God? Did Ye Chen Feng lose his mind? Although Ye Chen Feng was outstanding and was stronger than most whose cultivation base was a level higher than his, the difference between an Emperor of Gods and a Supreme God was not insignificant. Even if the Supreme God had also yet to stabilize his cultivation base, the difference in strength was still very big.
Yang Yu Chen asked with a smile, “Do you want to know why he challenged that Supreme God?”
“Third Senior Brother, I’m more concerned about how he escaped in the end,” Duan Ling Tian said solemnly. Since Yang Yu Chen had said earlier that Ye Chen Feng was fine, he surmised that Ye Chen Feng must have successfully escaped. Moreover, Yang Yu Chen would not be smiling if something happened to Ye Chen Feng. After all, Yang Yu Chen was aware of his good relationship with Ye Chen Feng.
“Relax. I’ll tell you about that later,” Yang Yu Chen said. Then, he began to explain, “It started because that Supreme God was too overbearing. When Ye Chen Feng was still a Lord of Gods, that Supreme God was an advanced Emperor of Gods. In the past, the other party almost killed Ye Chen Feng because of a trivial matter. Ye Chen Feng was very fortunate that a rudimentary Supreme God happened to pass by at that time. As such, the other party didn’t dare to act rashly for fear of provoking that rudimentary Supreme God, and Ye Chen Feng found a chance to escape. The other party was unaware that Ye Chen Feng was a disciple of the Pure Yang Sect at that time so he did not follow up on that matter. No one knew about this matter at all until Ye Chen Feng went to that supreme-rank force. It was also then that the other party, who became a rudimentary Supreme God, finally remembered Ye Chen Feng.”
Duan Ling Tian stared at Yang Yu Chen intently as Yang Yu Chen continued to say, “The other party’s expression changed drastically when he found out that Ye Chen Feng, the Lord of Gods he almost killed in the past, had become an advanced Emperor of Gods. With this, there was no doubt that it was just a matter of time before Ye Chen Feng surpassed him. For this reason, the other party didn’t hesitate and attacked Ye Chen Feng.”
Despite Yang Yu Chen’s relaxed tone, Duan Ling Tian could not help but shudder inwardly when Yang Yu Chen said that the Supreme God attacked Ye Chen Feng.
At the same time, various questions appeared in Duan Ling Tian’s mind. How did Ye Chen Feng escape? Did someone rescue Ye Chen Feng? Did Yang Yu Chen rescue Ye Chen Feng? Was that why Yang Yu Chen came looking for him today so that he could brag about it?
In Duan Ling Tian’s opinion, Ye Chen Feng had just broken through and become an advanced Emperor of Gods. As such, it was unlikely for his cultivation base to be completely stabilized. Although his Sword Dao was extraordinary and his comprehension of the law was comparable to that of an ordinary Supreme God, it was still unlikely that he was a match for a rudimentary Supreme God.
Needless to say, Duan Ling Tian was thoroughly shocked when Yang Yu Chen said that Ye Chen Feng had killed that rudimentary Supreme God. Ye Chen Feng had gone to that supreme-rank force just to kill that rudimentary Supreme God to seek revenge.
‘Elder Ye is truly vengeful. As soon as he was strong enough, he went to seek revenge. The shocking thing is that he’s able to kill a Supreme God so soon after becoming an advanced Emperor of Gods!’
Duan Ling Tian recalled the instances of Ye Chen Feng’s vengeful behavior and the stories he had heard from Zhen Ping Fan. It seemed like Ye Chen Feng would not forget even the smallest slight against him. At the same time, he was glad he did not make an enemy out of Ye Chen Feng.
When Duan Ling Tian returned to his senses, he asked Yang Yu Chen, “How did Elder Ye become so strong? He has only broken through recently, but he can already kill a rudimentary Supreme God!”
Yang Yu Chen shook his head and said, “I was going to ask you this question. It’s impossible for an advanced Emperor of Gods, who had yet to stabilize his cultivation base, to kill even the weakest rudimentary Supreme Gods. At the very least, it’s unprecedented in the Profound Energy Land. Such a feat is impossible for me and Eldest Senior Sister when we’d yet to stabilize our cultivation base after becoming an advanced Emperor of Gods. Ye Chen Feng is truly a monster. It seems like I’ve underestimated him in the past.”
Yang Yu Chen sighed before he continued to say, “What a pity. If I knew then what I know now, I would’ve brought him back with me to the Myriad Laws Academy back then…”
“Third Senior Brother, with this, the other heavyweight supreme-rank forces must have sent people to the Pure Yang Sect to recruit him, right?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
When Duan Ling Tian was still in the Pure Yang Sect, Zhen Ping Fan had mentioned that Ye Chen Feng would need to become an advanced Emperor of Gods at least before the heavyweight supreme-rank forces would recruit him. However, there was no question now that those forces would be scrambling to recruit him now that they knew he could kill a rudimentary Supreme God as soon as he became an advanced Emperor of Gods. Following this logic, in the future when Ye Chen Feng became a rudimentary Supreme God, it should be as easy as killing a chicken for him to kill an intermediate Supreme God. After all, the difference in strength between a rudimentary and intermediate Supreme God was much smaller compared to the difference between an advanced Emperor of Gods and a rudimentary Supreme God.
“Of course,” Yang Yu Chen said confidently, “I heard that even the Legacy faction is looking to recruit him. They must be in a hurry to act since I brought you back from the Pure Yang Sect. Yu Ying, the Vice Academy Master whom you met previously, has already gone to invite Ye Chen Feng to join the Legacy faction. However, who knows if he’ll be successful.”
Yang Yu Chen smiled at Duan Ling Tian meaningfully before he said, “Junior brother, since you and Ye Chen Feng have a good relationship, why don’t you convince him to join our Inner Palace faction? Although our Supreme Powerhouse Relic can only be accessed after 10,000 years, I promise he’ll be able to go in the next time it opens!”
Duan Ling Tian was startled when he heard Yang Yu Chen’s words. “Third Senior Brother, the Supreme Powerhouse Relic can only be accessed after 10,000 years? Why is it so long? Didn’t Fourth Senior Sister enter the Supreme Powerhouse Relic 2,000 years ago before I did?”
Yang Yu Chen shook his head and smiled wryly. “It’s all your fault, junior brother. The amount of energy consumed in the relic corresponds to the time one spent in there. Compared to Fourth Junior Sister, do you know how long you stayed there?”
Duan Ling Tian felt embarrassed upon hearing Yang Yu Chen’s words. As it turned out, the Supreme Powerhouse Relic would only be accessible 10,000 years later because of him. Even if they could force their way in, the outcome was naturally not good.
“Junior brother, do you want to try inviting Ye Chen Feng to join us? Tell him that he’ll become your Fourth Senior Brother. Fourth Junior Sister will then become Fifth Junior Sister. You’ll be unaffected and remain our junior brother,” Yang Yu Chen asked with a hint of eagerness. He really wanted Ye Chen Feng to join the Inner Palace faction.
