26: Chapter 26 Returning Home

Ye Yitian widened his eyes and asked, "Thirteenth Brother, have you broken through to Martial Master?"

"What are you thinking?" Ye Yisong released a hint of his Martial Warrior Spiritual Pressure and continued, "I would have been decapitated by him in a single sword strike."

"Uh..."

"You really have the nerve to think of that, asking me to fight a Nine-Star Martial Master." Ye Yisong rolled his eyes at Ye Yiguang.

"That's true, Thirteenth Brother is only a Five-Star Martial Warrior; it would indeed be tough to fight him." Ye Yiguang continued to compare.

Ye Yisong held up a finger and said calmly, "Seven-Star Martial Warrior!"

"Holy crap."

"Awesome."

"Beast."

"Thirteenth Brother, how long has it been since you broke through to Martial Warrior? What Immortal Pill did Fifth Elder feed you? This cultivation speed is too fast." Ye Yifan looked at Ye Yisong with glowing eyes, touching him here and there.

Among this group, Uncle Jiefu felt the most bitter. He had broken through to Martial Warrior two years ago and was still stuck at the Early Stage of Martial Warrior. There was really no comparison between people.

Uncle Jiefu glanced at Fu Yihang on the treasure ship and said, "I heard before that Fu Yihang was a Prodigy that the Fu Family only sees once in a millennium. His cultivation is at the peak of the Martial Master Realm, and it is rumored that he can rank in the top thirty among Martial Masters in Cangjiang Prefecture."

"Seeing him today, he is truly extraordinary."

"He resolved a Late Stage Martial Master in three moves, then resolved another Late Stage Martial Master in a few strikes. In group combat, he moved as if there was no one there, killing Martial Masters like slaughtering dogs."

"He is truly a hero."

"Yes, I suspect he still has a trump card. Just now, I saw his left hand reach into his sleeve, and it seemed like he was doing something." Ye Yifan said thoughtfully.

"Stop watching, the good show is over. Yiguang, go tell Ye Jiechuan to leave."

"Alright." Ye Yiguang agreed and walked towards the control room.

Although the treasure ship was equipped with a Fourth-Stage Formation and operated by several Martial Masters simultaneously, with the Formation fully activated, even a Martial Ancestor could not break through the treasure ship's defense.

However, for the sake of safety, the Family still stationed a Martial Ancestor on the treasure ship to protect its safety.

The treasures on the ship added up to at least hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones, sometimes even reaching an astonishing million Spirit Stones, so they could not be careless.

Ye Jiechuan was the fifty-seventh Uncle of Ye Yisong and the others. Ever since he broke through to the Martial Ancestor Realm, he had stayed on the treasure ship to cultivate.

In his own words, it was because he had a predestined affinity with the treasure ship.

Ye Yisong and the others had just watched Fu Yihang's battle below, wanting to see the combat situation of Cultivators from other families, just to watch the excitement.

This was the first time they had watched Cultivators from other families fight.

So they asked Ye Yiguang to go talk to the Martial Ancestor Ye Jiechuan who was sitting in the control room to see if the treasure ship could stop in the air for a while.

After hearing the whole story, Ye Jiechuan smiled and agreed.

He didn't make things difficult for them.

"Ye Jiechuan, they are done fighting, there is no good show to watch, let's go." Ye Yiguang bowed to Ye Jiechuan and said with a smile.

"Yiguang, did you enjoy the show?" Ye Jiechuan looked at the lively boy in front of him with a smile, thinking of himself when he was that age.

He actually knew long ago that the battle below was over. The Elders of both sides had finished fighting, so how could it not be over?

It was boring to watch the younger generation fight; one still had to watch the Elders.

"Let's go." Ye Jiechuan said to the Family disciples beside him.

"You brat, stop being an eyesore, go play outside." Ye Jiechuan waved his hand and chased Ye Yiguang out.

The treasure ship restarted and flew slowly towards Luomu Mountain.

Ye Yisong said goodbye to the others and returned to his courtyard.

He sat cross-legged on the cushion, reviewing the battle he had seen today. Compared to the Family morning exercises and small competitions in the past, the Family competitions now seemed like a joke. To outsiders, they looked like they were trading blows, but they weren't practical at all.

If he really started fighting with someone, he would definitely be killed in a few moves.

Fu Yihang's decisive moves and gorgeous five-sword strikes seemed to be replaying before his eyes.

So powerful!

If he were to face him, even at the same Realm, he suspected it would still be a matter of one sword strike.

It seems he still needs to keep a low profile. He won't go out until he reaches the Martial Master Realm... no, until he reaches the Martial Ancestor Realm. He should improve his Realm first.

Today, while eating at Yuelai Pavilion, he ordered a Second-Stage spirit fish. After eating a little, Ye Yisong broke through to a Seven-Star Martial Warrior.

Ye Yitian and the others were busy clearing the plates and didn't notice Ye Yisong's subtle changes.

Before the Martial Ancestor Realm, there were no major anomalies in cultivation. Even if one broke through a major Realm, it was difficult for others to discover it unless the Cultivator actively exposed it.

Or if it was seen through by a high-level Cultivator, otherwise it was difficult to discover the changes.

Ye Yisong ran the Green Lotus Sea-Transformation Sutra a few times to consolidate his cultivation.

Striking while the iron was hot, he took out a spirit ascension pill and a pulse warming pill from his Storage Pouch, ate them, and ran his Cultivation Technique a few more times before stopping.

Ye Yisong was truly stimulated today. In Cangjiang Prefecture, there were Martial Masters everywhere. As a small fry Martial Warrior, he really wasn't much.

His desire for cultivation had reached an astonishing level today, and he wished he could break through to Martial Ancestor tomorrow.

...

"Fu Yunjing." Fu Yihang and the others bowed to the middle-aged Cultivator.

"Let's go, let's go home." Fu Yunjing greeted them onto his treasure sword and flew towards the East Gate.

He did not attack the Qi Family Cultivators, as if he did not see them at all.

"Third Elder." Second Master Qi Zhenglu knelt on one knee to the old man beside him.

"Zhenglu is incompetent..."

The old man patted Second Master Qi Zhenglu's head gently and said warmly, "This is not your fault, get up. I didn't expect that the rumor was actually true; the Fu Family has produced another Martial Ancestor expert."

"Let's go back, bring the bodies of the fallen tribesmen back, and properly compensate their families. They are all good sons of the Qi Family."

"Yes." Second Master Qi Zhenglu got up from the ground and said.

"Wenbiao, clean up the bodies of the brothers, and compensate each Family with an additional five thousand Spirit Stones. Deduct it from my contribution points."

"Yes." Qi Wenbiao wiped the blood from his body and walked towards the fallen tribesmen.

"Brother Huang, after returning to the Qi Family, draw a new Third-Stage shield from the Family treasury."

"Many thanks to Third Elder, many thanks to Second Master." Huang Qiang said happily. His natal shield was damaged, his strength had dropped significantly, and he was worried about what to do.

Unexpectedly, the Qi Family immediately replenished it for him.

The Qi Family was impeccable when it came to winning people over; they were truly thoughtful.

The Qi Family Third Elder took the others onto his fan and flew towards his Family.

"Yunjing, why didn't you kill that kid Second Master Qi Zhenglu? And that Huang Qiang, that ungrateful dog." Uncle looked at his Ninth Brother in confusion and said.

"Fifth Brother, do you think why I arrived so late?" Fu Yunjing looked back at his Fifth Brother and said.

His Fifth Brother was good at everything, but his brain... he was over a hundred years old and still so naive.

If there was a chance, could he not kill that kid Second Master Qi Zhenglu and remove a major threat?

"Fifth Brother, people from the Qi Family have also arrived." Uncle looked at his cute younger brother speechlessly, still so naive.

"So what if the Qi Family came? Could it be that their Qi Family Elder also..."

Uncle finally reacted.

"Ninth Brother, you are not injured, are you?"

Fu Yihang and the others also looked over with concern.

"Nothing, just exchanged a few moves with him, tested each other out, and didn't really start fighting."

"This time it's exposed, I don't know what moves those families will make next, sigh..."
