Chapter 150 - 151 It’s not Easy Acting as the Ji Family’s Son-in-Law

151: It’s not Easy Acting as the Ji Family’s Son-in-Law 151: It’s not Easy Acting as the Ji Family’s Son-in-Law Editor: Atlas Studios The huge hand was like a prison, locking up space.

This was a kind of secret art that would completely seal everything inside.

Ji Ziyue’s body once more bloomed with light, her powerful secret treasure blocking the huge hand.

Space trembled, and the five fingers finally flew back.

However, the other five people had once more surrounded them, trapping them.

All kinds of weapons flew over.

“Listen closely little brat…” Ji Ziyue secretly transmitted, “Reach complete emptiness, guard tranquility…” The Great Void Art’s mantra was not long.

This was a kind of secret art, an elemental ability of the Void Scripture.

Ji Ziyue’s transmission was very fluid, like a clear spring flowing into Ye Fan’s mind.

He carefully listened and analyzed, combining it with the superficial art he had previously learned.

The Void Ancient Scripture was based on a sage’s learning of all living things back in ancient times.

It was an immortal canon that contained eternal unchanging laws.

Ye Fan was not unfamiliar with its main points.

Reaching complete emptiness and maintaining a true tranquility was the Void Ancient Scripture’s foundation, so he had already learned a bit about this.

The Great Void Art was extremely profound, and after cultivating it to the peak, it was possible to travel through space!

Of course, this traveling through space was limited in distance.

It was not possible to traverse the void, otherwise what would be the point of Domain Gates?

Even a peerless sovereign could only travel a limited distance if they cultivated the Void Ancient Scripture.

But in battles it would definitely be a true killing card.

The Great Void Art allowed one to become completely untraceable once cultivated to the peak.

It allowed one to appear and disappear, and under normal circumstances it allowed one to hold the absolute initiative.

For Ye Fan to be able to obtain the Great Void Art’s mantra in such a state was a great profit for him.

Although he had some talent, he definitely couldn’t be considered a genius who could hold everyone else in contempt.

Therefore it was impossible for him to immediately understand it all.

After all, this was a secret art from one of the Eastern Wastelands most ancient scriptures.

The Eastern Wastelands had several ancient scriptures that were granted the status of immortal canon, and they were naturally all difficult to understand.

They were incomparably profound, and even sovereigns wouldn’t be able to immediately gain success after obtaining them.

“There’s no need to obtain complete mastery.

All you need to do is turn your body into smoke and go to the void of nothingness.

Later I’ll direct you how to avoid the suppression!” transmitted Ji Ziyue.

Her secret treasure was truly powerful and had blocked all the various attacks, but the hemp-clothed man was too terrifying.

Each time he attacked it would cause space to warp.

He almost possessed the power to break the void, his power was definitely not a good sign for them.

Ye Fan combined this new mantra with his previous superficial Great Void Art.

His body immediately became a wisp of black smoke, appearing as if it might really merge with the void.

“Transfer some divine energy to me and we’ll work together to use the Great Void Art.” In an instant, the two of them combined their efforts, releasing the Great Void Art.

They were a wisp of black smoke that was becoming even more indistinct.

“I’ll use the secret treasure, and drawing on its power we’ll hide our bodies inside the void.

Don’t be distracted and continue to use the Great Void Art’s secret technique.

Otherwise it will get me torn apart by the void,” warned Ji Ziyue.

Space trembled like a bee buzzing.

The two of them completely disappeared into the void!

Ye Fan was shocked.

Ji Ziyue’s secret treasure was too mysterious, allowing them to reach the absolute peak of the Great Void Art and hide within the void.

At this moment, he felt a strange feeling.

He was surrounding by endless darkness.

It was completely silent, and it was like time had stopped.

“Don’t get distracted!

You have to keep activating the Great Void Art’s secret technique.

If something accidental happens here, even Immortals would be unable to save you.” He didn’t need Ji Ziyue’s reminder.

Just now when he had been slightly distracted, Ye Fan had felt a powerful tearing force that almost crushed his body.

He hastily focused his attention on the Great Void Art.

After the two of them disappeared, other than the hemp-clothed man, the other five were completely startled.

“If they’re travelling through the void, what are we supposed to do?” “The Ji Family’s Great Void Art is truly mysterious, worthy of being a supreme secret art.” Amongst them, only the hemp-clothed man was calm.

“Don’t worry.

They haven’t reached a mastery of it and are just relying on that treasure to temporarily evade us within the void.” “If they don’t come out, what are we supposed to do?” “They won’t be able to continue for long.

As long as we continue watching, they won’t be able to flee.

Spread out.

Soon, the Great Void Art will reach its limit.” In reality, it was precisely as he said.

The void was very dangerous, and no one was able to stay within it forever.

“We’ll rush out and then flee.

As long as can escape this encirclement and use the old madman’s supreme secret art, we’ll be able to flee.” In the next moment, Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue appeared in the bright world again.

But their surroundings were still locked down as they hadn’t escaped the encirclement.

“This is bad…that hemp-clothed man has a good understanding of the Great Void Art.” They once more entered the void, but doing so repeatedly used quite a bit of divine energy.

“Continuing like this isn’t a solution.

If we continue, the end will just be I’ll be cremated into a jar,” Ji Ziyue muttered quietly to herself.

Other cultivators at this realm would have long since run out of divine energy by repeated usage of the Great Void Art.

Only Ye Fan with his extraordinary physique could do so.

His body might be like a bottomless pit, but at the same time, endless divine energy surged out of his spring.

“Why aren’t you continuing to travel through the void?” The hemp-clothed man’s words were icy cold.

Although they were mocking words, they still gave the two an extremely hard feeling.

“If you aren’t going to continue fleeing, I guess I’ll help you ascend to heaven.” BOOM!

A silver pagoda shook heaven and earth.

Inside of it were actually specks of Xuanhuan!

This new attack was clearly different from his previous ones.

Origin Qi was now showing its might!

“This…this is an ancestral precious treasure!” Ji Ziyue was extremely startled.

Anyone who was able to possess a weapon with Xuanhuan in it was definitely extraordinary within their generation.

The silver pagoda was the size of a huge mountain, suppressing down.

The sky was sealed, and even the ground cracked.

A powerful engulfing energy was circulating, trying to suck Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue into the pagoda.

Ji Ziyue hastily transmitted, “Your body has a huge amount of the Origin Qi’s ‘foundation.’ Make it shake.

Since this pagoda has some Xuanhuan, this might actually be a chance for us.” “Fine!” Ye Fan began to use the Dao Scripture’s heart technique.

He couldn’t control the Origin Qi and bring it out, but shaking it within his body was still possible.

He had given Ji Ziyue a small amount of it, but the majority of the Origin Qi foundation was still circling around the green copper.

It seemed to be capable of multiplying, not having decreased at all.

Within his Wheel and Sea, the cauldron had yet to completely take shape.

The Origin Qi was misty as it circled around the copper shard.

BOOM!

Ye Fan used all his might to finally cause the Origin Qi to shake.

The aura of the creation of the cosmos caused heaven and earth to lightly tremble.

That silver pagoda shook and seemed as if it had sunk into a swamp, becoming sluggish, stopping for a moment.

“Let’s go!” A dazzling light exploded from Ji Ziyue’s eyes.

Using the secret treasure, a light rushed out and completely broke apart the hemp-clothed man’s bindings, free them from the silver pagoda’s seal.

The other five people’s weapons were also sluggish and unable to hinder them, allowing them to escape.

“Chase after them!

They have a treasure on them that all cultivators would dream of getting!” The hemp-clothed man not only had a terrifying cultivation base, but also extensive knowledge.

He had guessed that Origin Qi had affected his silver pagoda.

Moreover, the amount definitely could not be little.

Otherwise there was no way that the silver pagoda would temporarily lose its effect.

Of course, he couldn’t even begin to suspect that this was actually foundation Origin Qi.

Even though he didn’t know it was foundation Origin Qi, he was still shocked.

After all, just Origin Qi was a legendary treasure, but those two had an absolutely gigantic amount of it!

After escaping the encirclement, Ye Fan used his footwork to quickly disappear into the distance.

Once Ye Fan was given an opening, there was no way to trap him again.

The supreme secret technique the old madman has transmitted to him gave him almost unrivalled speed.

In just seconds, the land beneath him passed behind him and out of sight.

After fleeing for at least an hour, he finally stopped to rest for a short time.

“Just who is trying to kill you?

That hemp-clothed man with the silver pagoda clearly has a powerful background, otherwise there’s no way he could have a Vessel refined with Xuanhuan.” “How would I know?

Right now everyone is suspicious.

Even the Flickering Light Sacred Land might attack.

I can’t trust any sect right now.” “The hemp-clothed man is very difficult to handle.

I’m pretty sure they’ll have some secret technique to chase after us.” “What I’m most worried about is that he acts so coolly and wooden.

I suspect he’s a puppet that someone left an imprint on.” Ji Ziyue frowned, saying, “As for that silver pagoda, it only has an extremely minute amount of Xuanhuan in it.

Most likely it was refined at the last minute.” “Doesn’t that mean there’s someone extremely powerful behind this all?” “That would be the worst-case, yes.

If that’s true, then once that person personally comes out we won’t have the smallest chance of surviving.” The Ji Family was a huge existence, a crownless king of this region.

But Ji Ziyue now didn’t dare to trust any sect.

All she could do was rely on herself to flee towards the Ji Family.

“Little brat, are you thinking of tossing me aside and fleeing by yourself?” “I’ll send you to a safe place before leaving.” “No one will make things difficult for you if you come to my family.

I’ve transmitted the Great Void Art to you, and if you were to just silently slip away, you should know the consequences.” After recovering enough strength, Ye Fan stood up and said, “Isn’t your Ji Family a supreme existence within the Eastern Wastelands?

Why haven’t any ancestors of yours come to find you?” “The southern region is huge!

Just this region has dozens of nations, and no matter how powerful my Ji Family was, there’s no way for it to search through every inch of land.

None of them know where I fled to.” Over the following two days, Ye Fan brought the still injured Ji Ziyue stealthily through several nations, doing their best to hide as they traveled.

They had been caught up to by others several times, only narrowly avoiding death.

It was obvious there was some powerful figure in the background that wanted to kill Ji Ziyue, otherwise there’s no way this many people would be sent to chase after them.

They were continuously caught up to by various groups.

It was impossible to throw them off their trail.

“Little brat, you better just go on your own.

Don’t bother with me…” Seeing that Ye Fan had now also been heavily wounded, Ji Ziyue could only advise him to flee.

“You’ve transmitted the Great Void Art to me, and leaving now while you’re still in trouble would be against my conscience…” “You already used a mysterious spring water to save my life.

We’re even, so you should just go,” urged Ji Ziyue.

“I suspect that there’s people inside the family who are colluding with people outside, otherwise the ancestors would have found me by now.” —— By the third day, Ye Fan had already fled with Ji Ziyue for thousands of kilometers.

No matter how powerful Ye Fan’s body was, he was still somewhat unable to endure.

They once more met a group of a chasers.

“With a powerful backer behind them, they’ll probably kill our chasers after they kill us.

The people chasing us don’t have weak cultivation bases, but they also aren’t that strong.

Losing them wouldn’t be a great loss,” guessed Ji Ziyue.

“That’s too evil.” “That’s nothing…” Ji Ziyue curled her lips, not saying any more.

In the evening of this third day, Ye Fan and Ji Ziyue once more met a group of chasers.

Using the Great Void Art, the old madman’s footwork, as well as the secret treasure of Ji Ziyue, they just barely managed to escape.

“The Great Void Art…” Figures flashed in the distance.

The Ji Family’s people had finally appeared.

Although they weren’t the ancestors and just a couple young people, they still scared away the chasers, causing them to quickly flee.

“Who is that youngster with young lady Ziyue?

How does he know the Great Void Art?

Even I haven’t learnt this supreme secret art.” “Don’t worry about it for now, just go save young lady Ziyue!” These dozen young disciples quickly rushed over, protecting the pale-faced Ji Ziyue in their center.

“Greetings, young lady Ziyue!” These people all bowed.

Ji Ziyue finally smiled.

She was finally safe and no longer needed to risk her life fleeing.

“Who are you?

Why do you know the Great Void Art?” Several disciples were glaring at Ye Fan darkly.

This was the Ji Family’s greatest absolutely secret inheritance.

Even they, as elite disciples of the branch bloodlines, hadn’t had a chance to study it.

Ji Ziyue glared back at them displeased, saying, “Don’t be rude to him.

He protected me for thousands of kilometers to bring me here.

If it weren’t for him, I would have already died outside.” “He…” These few people didn’t dare to say much more after her words.

“Haven’t you seen his bloody ragged clothes?

Go bring some medicine.” Ji Ziyue’s eyes shone with light.

At this time, Ye Fan’s wounds truly were very serious.

Having protected Ji Ziyue for so long while being continuously chased, over half of his body was dyed with blood now.

“I’m fine.

I don’t need the medicine.

Since I’ve already sent you here, I’ll say my goodbyes.” Ye Fan turned to leave.

“Don’t leave!” Ji Ziyue obstructed him.

Those disciples immediately advanced and also blocked him.

Ji Ziyue revealed a hurt expression and said, “What are you guys doing?!” She glared at those people and then quietly said to Ye Fan, “Your body is greatly wounded.

Leaving like this is too dangerous.

Those killers are still in the surroundings.

You should come with me for now.” Ye Fan was in a difficult situation.

He absolutely couldn’t go to the Ji Family, but if he left alone like this it would truly be somewhat dangerous.

Right now all he could do was nod, deciding to heal his wounds before leaving.

“Young lady Ziyue, senior Ji Hui is ahead,” reported one of the young disciples.

“Good, I’ll go see her.” Ji Ziyue walked forward side by side with Ye Fan.

Just five kilometers ahead was a small town.

A powerful ancestor of the Ji Family, Ji Hui, was currently stationed within the town.

She had brought quite a few people here, taking control of an inn.

Ji Hui personally came to welcome them when she heard the news.

She was a white-haired old woman, her gaze very strict and somewhat intimidating.

When she saw that Ji Ziyue was fine she smiled, pulling her warmly over and looking over her.

“Good, as long you returned it’s good.” She then pulled Ji Ziyue back into the tavern, actually ignoring Ye Fan.

“Greetings senior,” Ye Fan bowed.

“Grandma, it was him who saved me.” Ji Ziyue sweetly smiled, pointing towards Ye Fan.

Ji Hui nodded, taking back her kind smile and saying, “Many thanks for protecting Ziyue back home.

I’ll definitely compensate you properly.” Ye Fan felt that although this senior was thanking him, it was more like she was just acting officially without any gratitude.

He suddenly realized that it was probably due to those young disciples telling her about his usage of the Great Void Art.

“Grandma, don’t look so serious.

He protected me for thousands of kilometers to bring me back.

Look, he’s covered in blood and is seriously wounded…” Ji Ziyue was very sharp, quickly sensing that Ji Hui was just acting superficially perfunctory.

“It wasn’t easy for him.

This youngster is truly a hero.

Please, come,” Ji Hui smiled to Ye Fan.

Ji Ziyue transmitted back to Ye Fan, “Don’t mind this.

Transmitting the Great Void Art to you is a serious matter, but once I explain it to her she should understand.” Ye Fan nodded, not saying anything.

Ji Ziyue personally walked up and pulled Ye Fan’s hand to bring him into the inn.

Just at this moment, Ye Fan felt the old woman’s expression darken, immediately receiving a transmission from her, “Youngster, don’t walk so close to Ziyue.

Understand that a daughter of the Ji Family is a divine moon high above in the sky.

We will repay you for saving her.

But as for the rest…you should know how to act!”
