Chapter 112 Someone from the Murong family comes

Since they had come from afar, Ye Fan naturally had to fulfill his duties as a host.

On behalf of the Joyous Union Sect, he hosted a banquet for the Nine Sect Disciples; the atmosphere was lively as they toasted and drank together.

Even Murong Wan was dragged over by Ye Fan, and the crowd's constant cries of "Sister-in-law" kept her face flushed with a crimson glow.

The group stayed at the Joyous Union Sect for about half a month; everyone seemed to have endless things to talk about with Ye Fan and dragged him into sparring matches every day.

At first, Ye Fan held back a bit, but once the others noticed, they refused to accept it and insisted he show his true skills.

With no other choice, Ye Fan got a little serious, and the results were truly astounding.

While his cultivation level wasn't the highest among the many "Rich Second Generation" cultivators, his combination of internal and external techniques was the most ridiculous.

With various top-grade magic treasures paired with Earth-rank Divine Ability Cultivation Techniques, a series of combined attacks would leave anyone dazed.

"Stop, stop, stop! I admit defeat! Senior Brother Ye Fan, you win!" Yi Shuihan couldn't help but shout.

"Do you really admit defeat?"

"I admit defeat, quickly withdraw your Divine Ability," Yi Shuihan said, caught between tears and laughter.

Looking at the giant meteorite in the sky, let alone the group of Rich Second Generation cultivators, even Core Formation Realm Experts like Qing Mingzi were stunned, but after realizing what was happening, their faces filled with pride.

Including this Dao Seed of the Qingtian Sword Sect, Disciples from eight Sects had successively fallen to Ye Fan's hand; he possessed an Aura of being invincible among his peers, making Qing Mingzi so happy his eyes were nearly squinted shut.

What people found most terrifying was that Ye Fan didn't seem to have used his full strength yet.

If it were truly a fight to the death, the outcome would likely exceed everyone's expectations.

"Ye Fan might be able to fight a Core Formation cultivator."

Su Ningxue and several Elders were also watching the battle from the side, and they were startled after reaching this conclusion.

Of course, it wasn't that Ye Fan truly possessed the strength of the Core Formation Realm, but rather that his peak power might be a match for it in short bursts.

Even so, it was astonishing enough; once the news reached the various great Sects, it would surely cause a huge uproar.

Everyone was thoroughly convinced by their defeat at Ye Fan's hands, sighing that the next hundred years would likely belong to him.

"Since we share such a similar temperament with Senior Brother Ye Fan, why don't we become sworn brothers of different surnames?!"

As soon as Yi Shuihan spoke, everyone was stunned, falling into a momentary silence.

It was true that everyone was grateful for Ye Fan saving their lives and admired his cultivation and Divine Ability, but if they were to truly swear a blood oath, they needed to consider it seriously.

They weren't worried about anything else, but the relationship between the Nine Great Sects was very delicate.

Despite their current united front against the Five Demonic Sects, appearing as close as a single family...

...if that threat were gone in the future, they would inevitably start fighting again, and at that time, their group of sworn brothers would be in an awkward position.

Ye Fan also saw everyone's concerns and quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

"I appreciate Senior Brother Shuihan's kind intentions, but becoming sworn brothers is a major matter; everyone should report to their Sect Elders before making a decision."

Hearing this, everyone felt it made sense; if their Masters agreed, everyone would be happy, and if they didn't, it wouldn't affect the relationship between them.

After another day of banqueting, the Disciples of the various Sects began to depart one after another.

Ye Fan personally saw them off outside the mountain gate, promising to visit each Sect in the future.

Before they left, Ye Fan didn't forget to thoughtfully gift a batch of carefree pills, asking them to take some back for their fellow Disciples to try; this would build goodwill while also expanding his sales.

After seeing everyone off, Ye Fan was momentarily lost in thought, and Murong Wan quickly asked him what he was thinking.

"It's nothing. I used to think the cultivation world lacked human touch, but now it seems that's not the case."

"Stinky Senior Brother, they're already gone, stop looking. Could it be that your soul was snatched away by those Senior Sisters from the Glazed Sect?" Yun Li said, fanning the flames.

Naturally, after getting Murong Wan's promise, little Yun Li had truly let herself go; she ran to Profound Spirit Peak three times a day and even built a Pill Furnace there, looking as if she were about to move in.

The Peak Master of Pill Cauldron Peak was so angry he came to Su Ningxue for an explanation, but as expected, he was rebuffed.

Watching the two graceful figures in his Immortal Cave every day and paying his respects to Su Ningxue when he had nothing else to do, Ye Fan's life was incredibly pleasant.

Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long; with the arrival of a group of uninvited guests, Ye Fan's peaceful days came to an end.

Today, as usual, Ye Fan was watering the spiritual fields in his Immortal Cave, calculating that the day to split the profits with the Hundred Treasures Pavilion was approaching.

Thinking about the large sum of Spirit Stones about to come in, Ye Fan couldn't stop smiling.

"Stinky Senior Brother, this is bad! Quickly go to the main hall and take a look, Sister Murong is in trouble."

Yun Li came running breathlessly, her small face filled with panic; it seemed like something major had happened.

"What happened to Wan'er?"

Not long ago, Murong Wan had been summoned by the Sect Head, who said her family had arrived.

After all this time, Ye Fan had never met Murong Wan's family; he had wanted to go along but was stopped.

"It's just some old family business, I can handle it myself."

Since she had put it that way, Ye Fan didn't stop her.

After all, every family has its own problems; since Murong Wan didn't want him to know, Ye Fan didn't ask too many questions.

But with Yun Li running over in such a panic, it seemed something unexpected had occurred.

"Let's go, we'll go take a look."

At this moment, in the main hall of Tongtian Peak, Qing Mingzi's face was as dark as water, his mood clearly unpleasant, and the other Elders also had ashen expressions.

If not for being wary of these people's identities, they would have kicked them out of the Joyous Union Sect long ago.

"Little Sister, stop messing around and quickly leave with your Big Brother," Murong Jie said in a deep voice.

"I said, that's impossible."

Murong Wan's tone left no room for negotiation, which caused Murong Jie's expression to sour.

"Little Sister, don't forget that you are a member of the Murong Family; whether you stay or go is not up to you!"

As soon as Murong Jie spoke, the expressions of Qing Mingzi and the others became even uglier.

Your Murong Family might be powerful, but my Joyous Union Sect isn't made of clay either; however, Murong Jie's words clearly showed he didn't respect them at all.

"Young Master Murong, Wan'er is a Disciple of my Joyous Union Sect and a personal Disciple of my Profound Spirit Peak; isn't it a bit much for you to demand to take her away with just one sentence?"

Su Ningxue's tone was as cold as snow, and the pressure of a Core Formation Realm Expert gradually spread, causing Murong Jie's expression to shift slightly as he felt as if he were being watched by some ancient behemoth.

But the Old Man in Black Robe behind Murong Jie took just one step forward and neutralized the pressure; his calm and composed manner made Su Ningxue frown slightly.

"He's an expert."

As the pressure dissipated, Murong Jie breathed a slight sigh of relief and looked at Su Ningxue with a hint of wariness.

"Peak Master Su, right? I have long heard the great name of Fairy Xuanji; seeing you today, you truly live up to your reputation. Murong Jie offers his greetings."

Murong Jie engaged in some false pleasantries before shifting the topic, stating directly that this was the Murong Family's private business and that even if Su Ningxue was her Master, she had no right to intervene.

"This marriage arrangement has already been set by Father; you must agree whether you want to or not."

"I advise you to leave obediently, otherwise it wouldn't be good if the Joyous Union Sect gets dragged into this!"
