20: The first genius of the immortal Ye family, Ye Qisha, who is a combination of immortal and demon!

"Ye Fan, without your peak power, you're not even a match for This Imperial Son's single hand. Now, as a prisoner, what makes you think you can kill me?"

Xuan Tianchen's lips curled into a disdainful sneer, his eyes filled with mockery as he looked at Ye Fan.

Ye Fan's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared unwillingly, "Why? Why, even after a reincarnation, am I still no match for you!"

His voice was filled with endless grief and helplessness.

Xuan Tianchen said indifferently, "If you don't cultivate, seeing me is like a frog in a well watching the moon rise; if you cultivate, seeing me is like a tiny plankton seeing the blue sky!"

"Xuan Tianchen, Ye Linger is already yours. I beg you, please let her go!" Ye Fan gritted his teeth, suppressing the grief in his heart, and pleaded almost begging.

"Let her go? The Primordial Sacred Body is a good thing; how could This Imperial Son just watch such a supreme physique be buried! Hehehe..." Xuan Tianchen's laughter was filled with greed and malice.

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan's eyes flashed with determination, and he stared intently at Xuan Tianchen, "If you dare to lay a hand on Ye Linger, I won't forgive you even as a ghost!"

"Hahaha, roar all you want in your helplessness!"

Xuan Tianchen laughed wildly, as if enjoying Ye Fan's painful struggle.

"If you have the guts, kill me now!" Ye Fan roared.

"No hurry. I will slowly torture you, making you wish for death but unable to find it!"

Xuan Tianchen finished speaking viciously, then swaggered out of Ye Fan's cell.

Behind him, Ye Fan's furious roars, like a trapped beast, echoed, as if trying to break free from the cell's confines and shatter the heavens and earth.

Not long after Xuan Tianchen left the cell, Ye Nantian directly arrived at the location.

"Ye Fan, how are your injuries?" Ye Nantian looked at Ye Fan with concern.

"Clan Leader!" Upon seeing that the person who arrived was Ye Nantian, a look of joy immediately appeared on Ye Fan's face, "My injuries are fine now, thank you for your concern, Clan Leader!"

"In front of the Xuan Clan, This Old Man is also powerless. I hope you don't blame This Old Man!" Ye Nantian sighed helplessly, his face full of guilt.

Ye Fan gritted his teeth, suppressing the grief in his heart, and said, "The Xuan Clan's bullying is nothing new; Ye Fan naturally understands the Clan Leader's difficulties!"

"Alas..." Ye Nantian looked at the sensible Ye Fan before him and couldn't help but sigh heavily, his heart filled with pity.

"Clan Leader, please, you must save Ye Linger!" Ye Fan suddenly said urgently, his eyes filled with anxiety.

Upon hearing this, Ye Nantian's expression immediately hardened, and he quickly pressed, "What do you mean by that?"

"Xuan Tianchen doesn't genuinely want to become cultivation partners with Ye Linger; he covets her Primordial Sacred Body!"

Ye Fan spoke almost word by word, his eyes filled with anger.

"What!" Ye Nantian was shocked upon hearing this, and a powerful killing intent instantly surged like a tide.

Throughout the entire Upper Heavens, the act of forcibly seizing another's physique, a method akin to demonic practices, was scorned and despised by all cultivators.

After all, those who were robbed would either become useless cripples or directly perish.

Indeed, only a colossal power like the Xuan Clan would dare to openly defy the entire Upper Heavens and commit such evil deeds.

Ye Nantian's expression was extremely serious. He stared intently at Ye Fan and asked in a deep voice, "Ye Fan, tell This Old Man honestly, do you have full certainty about what you've said?"

"Clan Leader, I swear on my Dao Heart, there is not a single false word!" As he spoke, Ye Fan's eyes were incredibly firm.

"Good, This Old Man understands!"

With a thought from Ye Nantian, the heavy Profound Immortal chains on Ye Fan's limbs suddenly melted away all their restrictive laws like dissolving ice and snow.

"Clan Leader, this..." Ye Fan's eyes widened in surprise.

"Your future path is still long; it shouldn't end here. Remember, escape as far as possible! Don't return until you've reached the Quasi-Emperor Realm!"

Ye Nantian looked at Ye Fan with profound eyes and earnestly admonished him.

"But if I leave, the Xuan Clan will surely take their anger out on the Immortal Ye Family!" Ye Fan's face showed difficulty, his heart filled with worry.

Ye Nantian waved his hand, his face calm, "It's fine. If what you said is true, the Xuan Clan won't act against my Immortal Ye Family for a while!"

"Clan Leader, take care!" Tears welled up in Ye Fan's eyes, and he bowed deeply to Ye Nantian with clasped fists.

"Mm-hmm, you can leave after dark!"

Ye Nantian nodded slightly, then his figure gradually disappeared from the cell.

A moment later, Ye Nantian slowly arrived inside another dark and damp cell.

"Ye Qisha, it's been ten years, and your murderous intent hasn't diminished at all!"

Ye Nantian looked at the slightly thin but infinitely ferocious young man before him, shaking his head and sighing helplessly.

"It's the Clan Leader, what a rare guest! Why are you so free today to personally visit this dungeon?"

The young man's lips curved into a cold sneer, and he spoke mockingly.

This person was precisely the young man Xuan Tianchen had spoken to earlier, named Ye Qisha.

He was born with a dual Immortal Demon Body, and his talent and strength were even more outstanding than Ye Linger's, making him the undisputed top genius of the Immortal Ye Family in this generation.

His Immortal Demon power could be transformed at will, making him almost unrivaled among his peers.

Unfortunately, such a gifted young man possessed an incredibly heavy murderous intent.

To quickly increase his cultivation, he had, in a single thought, cruelly slaughtered countless beings across several planes and continents in the lower realms.

Even in the Upper Heavens, many of his peers had met tragic ends at his hands.

Finally, left with no other choice, Ye Nantian had to order the Immortal Ye Family elders to suppress him and imprison him here.

He had originally hoped that Ye Qisha could repent and turn over a new leaf!

However, it seemed now that the murderous intent on him had not only not faded but had become even stronger!

"Ye Qisha, have you never had a single moment of remorse?" Ye Nantian looked at Ye Qisha with deep pain, his eyes filled with disappointment.

Ye Qisha, however, chuckled deeply, "Clan Leader, a person who isn't ruthless can't stand firm. It's you who should repent, not This Imperial Son!"

"Alas... if you had walked the righteous path, you would surely have a place among the young generation of the entire Upper Heavens today!"

"Clan Leader, if you hadn't suppressed This Imperial Son here, This Imperial Son would have already entered the Immortal Lord Realm. The future Immortal Ye Family, in my hands, would only be more prosperous! But you old fogeys, your brains are all messed up!"

"Presumptuous!" Ye Nantian was furious upon hearing this.

A faint trace of pressure instantly bloomed, crushing towards Ye Qisha like a tide.

Ye Qisha was unable to resist this pressure and immediately spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, then was directly suppressed into unconsciousness.

"If you truly cared for the Immortal Ye Family and controlled your murderous intent, Ye Linger wouldn't be struggling alone now!"

Ye Nantian looked at the unconscious Ye Qisha and murmured to himself.

In his opinion, Ye Qisha, with his dual Immortal Demon Body, possessed combat power that could rival the younger generation.

If he hadn't been suppressed here for the past ten years, he would have already been a proper Immortal Lord Realm cultivator.

With both Immortal and Demon powers unleashed, he might truly be able to fight Xuan Tianchen!

But how could he know that Xuan Tianchen also possessed a dual Immortal Demon Body?

His Immortal Dao cultivated Imperial Clan techniques, possessing the strongest Immortal Dao physique, the Chaos Body.

His Demon Dao was even the Chaos Demon God, who looked down upon all heavens; his power was beyond what ordinary people could imagine.

Ye Nantian quietly gazed at Ye Qisha lying on the cold ground, an unconscious trace of unbearable pity flashing in his eyes.

That trace of pity seemed to be for the talented young man who had once gone astray, a mix of regret and heartache.

As he slowly extended his finger and gently pointed, a pure and powerful Immortal Force instantly shot out.

Like a ray of light, it directly merged into Ye Qisha's slightly frail body.

Under the nourishment of this Immortal Force, Ye Qisha's originally weak aura gradually began to stabilize.

Then, Ye Nantian's tall figure flickered lightly, disappearing instantly from the cell like a ghost.

Silence returned to the cell, with only Ye Qisha still lying quietly there.

It was as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusory dream.
